Josh, does the air have USB? If it has just download the movies straight to the mac.

 

I use the gopro studio software, free from the gopro website. Not mastered it completely but can do what I want to do.

Yeah it's got a couple of USB slots, just no sdhc slot. Diddnt realize I could do it via a cable and leave the card in the gopro, ordered the cable so will hopefully have a play next week

Best way mate. Plug the gopro in and export from camera. Sometimes exporting from the card and reader gives errors when you delete them. When I plug. One I. It automatically opens iPhoto. I just import and then delete the files from the card in that.

 

Once on the mac I use the gopro studio software I mentioned.
