You need to use a Firewire (Sony calls this an iLink cable) and only older (2009 vintage and older) Macbooks have this connection. Look on the left side of your Macbook. If one of the ports has the Firewire symbol (looks like a "Y") then you are all set - your camera and computer are compatible!

Ensure your Mac has a FireWire port or use a compatible adapter if necessary. After connecting, you can use video capture software to import your movies.
