DV port for downloading video from JVC camcorder

I have a Toshiba satellite A305-S6825.  I have a JVC camcorder.  JVC sent me the cable to download the video which is a DV cable.  The one end fits perfectly into the camcorder but I cannot connect to the computer because I do not have a DV port.  Can anyone help?

Re: DV port for downloading video from JVC camcorder

I think your DV cable is a fire wire cable. Does your computer have an input labeled i link,or maybe ie1394, or firewire? These are all the same. They come in 4 pin and 6 pin connectors. If you have the port on your computer you may be able to get an adapter if you need one to convert from 4 pin to 6 pin. Hope this helps.
