Can't Capture video from Canon HF S10 AVCHD

Downloaded fcpx at the Apple Store believeing it worked natively with " A V C H D "

FCE and iMovie both recognized my Canon HF S10 AVCHD internal memory and 32 GB card and would convert the .mts files.

I just blew $299 and don't have a clue what "Canon XF MPEG-2; ingest supported with additional software"
means and likewise don't know where to purchase this vaporware neither am I capable at this moment of decrypting XF vs. HF! What part of AVCHD am I missing here.

While we're at it, the "missing manual" can only be accessed online. That's great for the Usual Suspect Verizon / Apple / Manual Author / Training Video alleged Guru's and their profit sharing BUT the added Verizon, Missing Manual, Training video's raise the $299 price.

Caveat Emptor! Will the Apple Store entertain my request for a refund
