Gotta ask the requisite question: You tried Image Capture, right?

Have you tried a card reader?
Or the software Canon supplied with the camera?
I use a LaCie USB card reader and it works great. I think it was $20.
I use the card reader so I don't drain the camera's batteries during file transfers.

From Canon's website:
"Also, movie files shot with PowerShot cameras cannot be downloaded in OS X via Image Capture or iPhoto. We suggest the use of ImageBrowser or an external card reader."

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

My Fuji FinePix just docked straight onto the desktop, then I could just drag whatever was on it out, movies, and pictures.

My camera does that too, it just shows up on the desktop as an external drive. I can drag and drop whatever I want in or out.

I used to think that. Then I discovered Image Capture. It downloads movies from my Canon S300 too.

I guess you don't either.
Canon doesn't recommend it. It might not work for everyone.
The best way to go is with a external card reader. Cheaper, faster, and doesn't drain batteries.
