Can't import big video file from iPhone to Macbook.

I have a big video file I took on my iPhone – 4.9gb – which both iPhoto and image capture wont let me import. Any suggestions how I can import this onto my Macbook?

Perhaps try one of the apps that transfers photos and videos via WiFi between phone and computer. There are several in the App Store.

  • Can't copy large video file from iPhone

    I have several video recorded on my 3GS. When connected via USB to a Windows XP computer it shows up as "camera device" and I can usually copy photos and videos from it.
    However, today I found I was unable to copy a 584MB video I recorded yesterday.
    I have another 300MB video I can simply drag and drop or copy paste without problems; but the 584MB one simple freezes the window for a while, and then I get a copied file in the destination with size zero.
    Has anyone faced similar problems? (or better yet, how can I get that file "out" of the iphone?)
    [Using iPhone 3GS 3.0]

    Trying it in a different PC (this one with Windows 7) solved the issue.
    It copied without any problem - though there were issues for the iPhone to be detected correctly in windows 7.
    It would show up as an incorrect USB MTP Device and failed to mount it - it required "uninstalling" the device and scanning for new hardware in device manager to show up properly (this had to be done everytime the iPhone was plugged in.)

  • ITunes 11 won't import .mov video files from external hard drive but will from internal.

    Hi Everyone
    I'm having a problem with iTunes 11.0.1. I can't import .mov video files stored on an external hard drive. I can however import .m4v files from the same external drive. Using either the add to library option or dragging files from the finder.
    I can add .mov files from the internal though. Strange I know.
    The reason behind this posting is that I'm using iFlicks to convert my TV and movies from my external drive for Apple TV and add all relevent meta data, keeping the files on the external drive and having iTunes link to them.
    I would like to be able to simply create a general iTune compatiable file using iFlicks which only takes a minute or two per file to convert. I'm currently converting them to .m4v just for the sack of being able to import them into iTunes from an external drive takes 45 minutes per file.
    Has anybody else had this problem? Any ideas on a fix to allow me to import .mov files from an external drive into iTunes without copying it to the iTune library file.
    Many Thanks
    Dave

    This might be worth a shot - basically seeing if Vista permissions could be the culprit.
    Give yourself FULL control and ownership of the exHD, let's call it M:
    How to Take Ownership and Grant Permissions in Windows Vista
    Take control of the top level folder and ALL subfolders.
    Try creating a new blank ITL file on M: by pressing *and holding* the shift key while itunes starts. See if you can add everything again.

    Hello:
    I am very much a novice with Final Cut.  I am trying to import some video files from  my desktop but keep getting an error message that says, "File error  1 file recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown".  The file type is .mov, 35MB, 1920 x 1080, Codec MPEG-2 video linear PCM timecode, color profile HD (1+1+1).  Can someone help?  Thanks, Paul

    You can't import MPEG-2 files directly to FCP X.
    Can you play this file in Quicktime Player? If so, then you can use the free program MPEG Streamclip to convert this to Quicktime. Use the ProRes codec.

  • How do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto?  Photoes came across, video said incompatible.

    how do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto?  Photoes came across, video said incompatible.
    i have moved from a mac pro to a mac mini,
    Mini now has mavericks and latest iLife stuff, I clicked import, was all good, then at end, no videos came across.
    Is Mavericks,/iPhoto having a compatibiltiy issue with some video formats....???
    Your help is appreciated gang.: )

    Please describe exactly what you did. In moving to a new machine no importing is involved. The best way is to simply connect the two computers together and drag the iPhoto library from the old one to the pictures folder go the new one and launch iPhoto

  • Transfer photo/video files from iPhone 5 to MacBook?

    I was able to complete steps #1 and #2 of the iTunes help offered under "Transfer files from your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad to your computer" but for step #3, "Below File Sharing..."  there was no File Sharing menu or ability to choose the Photos app in my iPhone 5.  Where should I look for that or is there more de-tailed guidance available elsewhere?

  • How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?

    How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?  These files were created on my MBA and when I changed the media type to iTunesU and then copied it to my iPad via iTunes, they did not appear.  I can see them using 3rd party software, but they don't have delete functionality.
    Thanks
    York

    Interesting note:  I can see the files when I use the search function, but when I tap either file, I return to my home screen.  The video does not open.  I can transfer the file to my MBA, and it plays fine, but I cannot figure out a way to delete them.

    The problem is I can no longer back up my photo and video files taken on my phone, saved to my mac, by copying them and saving them on a USB stick or other external hard drive.
    Select the photos and videos in Photos and use the command "File > Export"  and select a folder on your USB stick to save the photos to.

  • Hi there! I would like to ask if is there anyway that I can see all of the file from IPHONE 4 using over my desktop?

    Apps must be updated using the Apple ID used to originally download them to the device.
    If you cannot or will not use the old Apple ID, then you can delete the app, and then download it again using the current Apple ID.  Be aware that any paid apps will have to be purchased again.

  • Unable to transfer Video files from iPhone to iPhoto

    My daughter's iPhone 5S was stolen and she transferred her 2500+ picture camera roll to her brother's iPhone 4.  Then her laptop died and was transferred to a brand new MAC.  Upon syncing, backing up and restoring her iphone 4 I am finding that I repeatedly get the message.  I have erased and restored her iPhone 3X.
    "Error downloading image. iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image"
    Now I was thinking the library was damaged, but have rebuilt it 2X.  I then imported individual pictures and they went in fine.
    Now what I did notice is that there are 7 small video clips each about 4-10 seconds long that are NOT importing.  In fact, in iPhoto they show up as MOV and do not even show a preview video so I can't tell which videos they are other than by the length of the video.  Sadly with over 2500 files there are many short video clips so I don't know which one's for sure she is unable to get without searching the #@)*^&%)!&^!!!!  iPhoto library and comparing them one by one to see which ones are there.
    I also tried importing the video files to a brand new library on the same computer and got the same error.
    The same appears to happen going to a brand new library on a DIFFERENT computer.  So I'm pretty sure the problem is with those 7 video files.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for how to find and remove this 7 short clips and salvage them for her?  I suppose she could email them to herself.
    Thanks

    Sorry, I can see I wasn't clear.  The video files are on the iPhone and I'm guessing they are corrupt.  I've read a number of your forums on checking to see if the problem is with the iPhoto library, but in this case I don't believe that to be true because:
    1. It fails when I create a new library on the same computer.
    2. It fails when I create and attempt to sync on a DIFFERENT computer with which I created a brand new iPhoto library.
    3. These files  (7 of them) actually look different on iPhoto and DO NOT have the preview icon that shows you what it is.  They simply say .mov or something like that.

  • Can't import .mxf video files in Premiere CS5

    Hi all!
    I've just installed Premiere CS5 and imported some .mxf files to a project. But premiere just recognizes the audio tracks, it don't recognizes the video one.. it's like it was a simple audio file.. and i can see the video outside premiere.. anyone knows why is this happening?
    With cs4 i never had this problem.
    Thanks in advance!
    André Inácio

    Assuming you're not using the trial version :
    if you can't import XDCAM EX files using the Media Browser, which will only import what Premiere needs, then there is something wrong with your installation.
