How do I get rid of "unreadable files" when I am importing from my camera?

How do I get rid of "unreadable files" when I am importing from my camera?

Are all images unreadable? What is the exact error message you are getting?
If only a few images are unreadable, try to import not all photos at once, but in smaller batches, until you know, which photo it is that cannot be read. Import all photos that can be read and reformat your card in the camera to remove the unreadable files.
But if all photos are unreadable, try, if Image Capture can read your card.
Is it a new camera? Have you been able to import from that camera before?

  • File Error - Unknown file when trying to import from HDD camera

    I recently purchased a Panasonic SDR-H80 and am trying to get my widescreen footage into FCP. I converted the .MOD files to .m4v files in Handbrake, and they play and look fine in the Finder. However, when I try to move them into FCP, I get a dialog that says "File Error - Unknown file." I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Can anybody help?

    I converted the .MOD files to .m4v files in Handbrake .... I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here
    What you're doing wrong is using Handbrake and trying to use .m4v files in FCP. Neither is the correct process in preparing for editing.
    Try using MPEG Streamclip and a format that actually works natively in FCP. .m4v is a final delivery format- not for editing. A search on this forum would have revealed that to you in a matter of seconds: http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?objID=c206&search=Go&q=handbrake

  • HT1660 i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    Hello rmunsey,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you have two separate iTunes Libraries but would like to add the music from one to the other to have one consolidated library.
    If you know where the files are for each library, I recommend opening one iTunes Library in iTunes and importing the files from the other library using the following steps:
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add

    Next, you can search for duplicates:
    Choose View > Show Duplicate Items to show duplicate items (matches are based on the song name and artist). If you have multiple versions of the same song (for example, live and studio versions, or versions from different albums) you can hold the Alt or Option key (for Mac OS X) or the Shift key (for Windows) and choose View > Show Exact Duplicate Items. This will show only duplicate songs having the same name, artist, and album.

    This should help you identify the duplicates all at one time so that you can delete the extra versions of songs.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device? It still shows up as purchased books on "Icloud".

    How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device but still shows up as "purchased books" on "Icloud". I don't want to see some of these books at all. I can sort by one that are PDFs and ones currently on device, but it still gives option to show those old titles. Does anyone know how to erase your "Icloud" history, please?

    Nooooooo! lol... If I want to download again I will, I don't want an electronic trail. Plus when I have Ibooks open, sometimes I will accidently hit the item and it will immediatly try to download it. The problem with that is that its "Time magazines Best Photos of 2012" etc and it locks up my IPAD cuz of sheer size of the book. So I would like it gone from the history. Isn't there a way to clear the history?

  • How can I get rid of app upgrades, when I no longer have the app?

    How can I get rid of app upgrades , when I no longer have those particular apps?

    If the app is no longer installed on the iPad then you should get prompts about updates to it in the App Store app - as efectively there is nothing for it to update. If you are being prompted to download updates to them then are you sure that they are no longer on the iPad ?
    If you are being prompted on your computer's iTunes then if you delete them for the App part of you computer's Library then you shouldn't be prompted about them.

  • How can I get rid of cache files?

    Premiere Pro, can't find cache files on Mac, not in the common folder, clean doesn't work, I know there are Gigs of them on my drive.  How can I get rid of them?
    I started a premiere project I had worked on before using an external drive but forgot to hook up the external drive.  In a few minutes, Premiere loaded 5 gigs of cache files onto my macbook pro drive OSX 10.8.6.  I tried the following to free up the space:
    Tried to "clean" the cache folder before switch it to the external drive - this only removed a small amount of the 5 gigs created
    Tried to find files in the Application Support/Adobe/common folder - no cache files found
    Tried searching the web for answers - no new info
    Tried searching my drive for the files - can't find them
    Tried restarting the MacBook and Premiere with and without the external drive - no luck
    Now what?
    Message was edited by: Kevin Monahan
    Reason: please make a shorter and more concise title next time. Thanks.

    First off, exactly which version of Premiere are you running? Not simply PPro CC or CC2014 but the version number shown in the About box.
    I'm not clear whether you're saying that Premiere can't find the cache files or that you can't find them.
    I gather that you're referring to the Clean button on the Media tab of the Preferences dialog, which is also where you set the path for the cache files.
    Are you sure you're looking in the correct Library--not the one that's readily accessible under Macintosh HD but the one that Apple, in it's infinite wisdom, hides from users. To access it, open the Go menu and press Option.

  • How do I get rid of 'orphaned' files

    Hi,
    What is a good software (free preferably) to use in order to get rid of 'orphaned' files I seem to have migrated over from my old iMac? For example, I have Virtual PC, Print Explosion, Otto game, etc. in there as well as many other orphaned files/folders like this that I won't be using on my Macbook Pro. Is there a software that will detect these so I can SAFELY get rid of all these unnecessary files? Please advise.

    This isn't an endorsement since I haven't used it.

    Also get EasyFind and search manually (excellent, I have used it.)

  • How do i get rid of junk files

    how do i  get rid of junk files

    Drag them to the Trash and empty it.
    But... be very careful about what you deem to be 'junk' - don't go poking around in Library folders, the System folder, etc., thinking that 'junk' can be found there.
    And, for Heaven's sake, don't use any product which claims to 'clean' your Mac - yur Mac does it's own housekeeping.
    Good luck,
