Hi John, Just saw your post go here -

Digital HD Video Camera Recorder - Memory Recording Unit (http://pro.sony.com/bbsccms/ext/hdv/z7u_s270u_m35u/HVR-Z7U/unit_software.html)

This will allow you to use Log & Transfer with your Compact Flash footage, but do note the preview area is not available for the M2T file transfer, which means you can't set In & Out points.

I have Contacted Sony & Apple and both blame each other, I have not found a method other than using mpeg streamclip or Clipwrap.
