    Default How can I use the firewire port of another mac?

    Hi,

    I have a new MacBook "late 2008" as well as a white iBook G4 with a firewire port. I want to import video from my camcorder and I was wondering if there is a way to "link" both computers so that I can connect the camera to the iBook and have the video imported to the MacBook.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    No. You'll have to import it to the iBook then transfer to the MacBook.
