I have a new Dell XPS420 with Windows Vista
I also have a new camcorder (Canon HV30) with preferred editing software, Premiere Elements 4. I've not been able to transfer video in Elements.

I went to the Device Manager and the camcorder is not listed in the Images Devices folder. (I do have the HV30 turned on, in the 'play' mode and using a newly purchased Firewire cable)

What needs to happen so that the computer, with Vista, recognizes the Canon HV30 camcorder?
