Copying media files from a video camera SD card into your project folder

  1. Connect your project folder SD card to the back of a Mac.

  2. Eject the video camera SD card from your video camera. (Consult your owner's manual or Google if you're unfamiliar with this process.)

  3. Insert the video camera SD card into the back of the Mac.

  4. The SD card will appear on the Desktop (on right). Double-click the video camera SD card to open it in a Finder window.

  5. Open a second Finder window and navigate to your project folder.

  6. In the video camera SD card Finder window, you should see AVCHD. Note: You may need to navigate within the video camera SD card to find AVCHD. Copy AVCHD from the video camera SD card into your project folder.

  7. After AVCHD has copied into your project folder, eject the video camera SD card and remove it from the back of the Mac.

  8. In your project folder, rename AVCHD. Follow JAMS file and folder naming conventions. (Do not delete, rename or move any files or folders inside this directory.)
