Aperture 3 does not import video from iPhone

Aperture 3 does not want to import my videos from iPhone anymore. This used to work perfectly fine before, now Aperture hangs as soon as I try to upload any video.
Is this a known bug??

I'm experiencing the similar but Aperture not importing photos from iPhone. When I go to iPhoto and import then it works. My software is all latest.

  • IPhoto does not import video from iPhone 4

    We've been battling this problem for a while now. We have two iPhone 4's and any time we import photos to iPhoto, we have to select photos individually, making sure to NOT select any videos taken with the iPhone 4, in order to get them to import to iPhoto. If there is a video in the set, all photos after that are reported as unrecognized format and won't import. We can then select those photos that didn't import and reimport them and it works. Importing videos, either single videos or groups, or when mixed in with photos just doesn't work. Every time it fails with the unrecognized format error. We are able to import directly from a flip video camera, or if we first transfer the videos from the iphone to the hard drive using a different utility, but when we then import those files into iPhoto, they come in, but without the usual thumbnail image (they show up in the library as black).
    This problem has been going on since iPhoto 09. We bought the 11 upgrade hoping it would fix this problem. It made it a little better (we used to not be able to import anything from the phones), but it still doesn't work for video. If it were just one of the phones I'd say it was the phone, but both phones have the problem. We've been seeing this problem for many months now.

    Believe me, we've tried it all. Resetting, restarting, reinstalling, clearing preferences, caches, resetting databases, removing all photos off the iPhone and starting from zero. I've read probably 15 different threads on the subject and tried at least as many solutions. In a few instances the problem got better...for 1 sync. Then it cropped up again. I tried syncing to a fresh iPhoto database, and the problem came back for that one as well. I'm really hoping that Apple is working on a solution for this. We've put a lot of effort into our iPhoto archives and the main reason we bought the iPhone's was for the camera (even suffering through AT&T's questionable coverage for it). It doesn't seem like we are the only ones having this trouble.

  • Do not import video from iPhon 4s in iPhoto 9.4.3 (720.91)

    Do not import video from iPhon 4s(6.1.3(10B329)) in iPhoto 9.4.3 (720.91) on my iMac(iMac 27"_Intel Core i5 2,8 GHz_RAM 4 GB_HDD 3Tb_ATI Radeon HD 5750 1Gb_Mac Os 10.8.4)
    "unreadable files.
    Could not import because did not recognize the file format"

    Presumably you mean 'Does not...'?
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
    Post back with the result.

  • Aperture isn't importing videos from iPhone, only photos. I've tried plugged in and over wifi. Help?

    How did you transfer the photos from your other iPhone? If you did it by importing them from the old phone to a computer and then used iTunes to sync them back to the new phone, then you would delete them by syncing again using iTunes but this time change the selection of which photos are to be synced. Each time you sync using iTunes, it sets the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current settings/selection in iTunes.

  • Aperture Does Not Import Videos using IMPORT FOLDER AS PROJECTS

    SOLVED - Aperture 3.2.1 does not import videos using "Import Folder as Project"
    After 2 days of trying to figure this out (actually around 2 hours total) I've finally managed to import all my photos & videos last year. 200 Gigs 54,000 files. First few tries resulted with referenced photos only, no videos. I had no luck with Google, even tried moving a couple of .plist as mentioned from this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/11188017?messageID=11188017#11188017 - this worked for some but not for me. Some issues were solved by NOT selecting "Raw Only", this will cause Aperture to skip your videos.
    Thank you to these people who took time to share. In return I am posting my micro contribution to the Aperture Community. FILE > SWITCH TO LIBRARY > then create a new library. You should be able to import your photos with videos in folders.
    I hope this gets into Google soon. :-)

    , I see only the file, where these photos are, not the photo names or thumbs inside the file (Aperture import path).
    You mean in the Aperture Import panel the folder, where the jpegs should be, is empty?
    Then you may have excluded jpegs from import in your "Import Settings".
    Check the above settings in the "Import Settings" options in the "Import Window". I.e-make sure the Raw+Jpeg Pairs option is set to "Both", even if you do not import raws.
    After reassembled all the programs to a new hard drive in Mac Pro
    Is this new Harddrive your system volume? And are the jpegs you wat to import located on this drive? Or are the on another external volume? If yes, how is this volume formatted?
    Have you checked the permissions and ownership of the jpegs?

  • Aperture 3.0.3 does not import videos from Canon 5D Mark II!

    Hi
    I have photos and movies in one memory card. If I import from the camera into aperture 3, only the photos but no movies are imported. Why?
    Thank you for your advice!

    Last time I had this, I did this for a solution:

  • Aperture does not import jpg:s from certain files.

    After reassembled all the programs to a new hard drive in Mac Pro, Aperture does not import certain files with .jpg -photos. Earlier it has succeeded. Changing the photo location does not help. Nor importing as projects. Files are visible when asking to import but the thumbs are not seen on Aperture window.

  • Lightroom 4.1 will not import video from the Olympus OM-D EM-5

    Lightroom 4.1 will not import video from the Olympus OM-D EM-5. It sees the files in the import dialog, but it fails during import.

    Here's a post concerning 5D MKIII file corruption, which may also be due to a camera malfucntion. Yes, there could be something wrong with your camera.

    SUGGESTION:
    Install the Canon EOS Utility that came with your camera. Also check for an updated version of the EOS Utility after the install. You need to install from the CD first before you can install any updates.
    http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/slr_cameras/eos_5d_mark_iii#Driver sAndSoftware
    If the EOS Utility can download the CR2 files to your hard drive, then your camera is not defective.

  • ImageJ in Yosemite can not import video from QuickTime plugin

    ImageJ in Yosemite can not import video from QuickTime plugin.... it seems can not found QuickTime_Capture.jar within QuickTime_Plugins.jar but I'm sure it is in the plugin directory.
    I google this problem but not luck!

    Thank you Benjt and Sue:
    I have first chosen to followed Sue's suggestion concerning the firewire connections since that looked to be the one most easily done quickly. I therefore had to make more room on the hard drive in my MacBook Pro since the drive is only 100 GB. I normally use an external 400GB drive to hold my video files since one of the plays last May required about 200GB! However, the play this time was a short one and not really High Density anyway like the one was in May with a much finer camera. I have been connecting the external HD via Firewire800.
    I simply moved a number of files from my MacBook Pro drive and put them in the external HD as well as another HD and then disconnected the external HD from my MacBook. I was, indeed, able to import the entire tape in one shot into iMovie. iMovie is still not working right since I found that I had to click "import" in iMovie to start collecting a clip and then hit "play" on my camcorder to actually import the tape contents into the clip. I found the whole play, just 50 min this time, in that clip when we returned home this evening.
    I can now get the editing done one their last play for the kids and have DVDs for them when I go back up to Gainesville to record their current play on Thursday evening.
    I will then devote some time to trying to solve the rest of the problem, looking into Benjt's suggestions.
    Thanks very much for your very timely critical and positive help this afternoon. For your information, I also have been working on learning Final Cut Express but as I tried to put all of my reading into practice, I now I can't even get FCE to open - but that's another story and a very different problem.
    Thanks again.

  • Importing video from iPhone

    Is it possible to change the iPhone4s settings so that it records video at 30 fps versus the current setting of 24fps? 

    Sorry, I got to know now that it does not support videos. I never take videos so I never realized. Anyway, I took a video on my iPhone and tried transfering via iPhoto. iPhoto is really irritating, as it did not recognizez my phone initially, and after it did, takes a long time. If you have windows installed(via bootcamp or any other), use windows to transfer files instead. It is a long process, you have to copy the file onto your desktop from your iPhone, connect your ipad, and then transfer the video via iTunes. That's what worked for me.

  • I can not import videos from my camera or open them... quits finder

    So i have a canon powershot SD300 and I can't import videos from it using I photo (the program quits)... so I used the camera software and when I go to click on it to show review, or try and open the video files (avi-quicktime) my finder quits! What's up with that? I have added an Xvid update so I could run Xvid files... I don't know if that would do anthing. Can anyone help?

    JordanFox,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Your friend is correct; iPhoto 2 does not handle video files. You'll need at least iPhoto 5 to keep videos in your library. There is no other way to get it than to purchase a copy of iLife, either version 5 or version 6. Upgrades from one version to another cost money, updates within a version (ex; 6.0 to 6.0.6) are free downloads from Apple.
    Try using Image Capture (in your Applications folder) to upload the video clips to your Mac. You can manage them yourself in your Movies folder.
    Regards.

  • IPhoto 9.2.1 not importing photos from iPhone 4S

    When I plug in my 4S, or an alternate 4S, iphoto will recognize that there are photos that need to be imported, however when I click import all, it inicates that it cannot read any of the files, and does not import any of the photos or videos. I have also tried importing one photo at a time and got the same results. Any sugestions?

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • IMovie not importing videos from iPhoto

    I am trying to import videos from iPhoto into iMovie. It is not bringing in ( i.e. creating thumbnails for) anything after Dec 2010. The videos all show up in iPhoto and they were shot with an iPhone. Is there a date range set somewhere that I need to change. I can not even get them if I specifically try and import them one at a time through File-Import-Movies. When I try this method it lets me select the videos, but they still don't show up in my video thumbnails. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    OSX 10.8.3 on a 2012 iMac
    iMovie 11 9.0.8

    I open up iMovie and it then imports movies from iPhoto. The problem is it is missing several videos. When I select import video it imports those missing files, so I know it's not a file format issue... Anyone else seen this? Any suggestions on how to get ALL my videos into iMovie?
    iPhoto will import any file that can be played in the QT Player (i.e., that is "playback" compatible). On the other hand, iMovie '08 will only import files that it can edit -- i.e. that are "edit" compatible. (Would you really want to waste your time importing files only to find that you can't do anything with them once they are "in" the application?) Your solution is to convert non-edit compatible files to compression formats that are editable -- primarily DV, AIC, M-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, MPEG-4, or H.264. You should also note that both audio and video content must be edit compatible. For instance, many AVI files contain M-JPEG video which can be edited along with ADPCM audio which cannot be edited and so such files will not import.

  • Getting movies (not just video) from iPhone 3GS to Mac

    I did the following in order (question at end)
    captured video using iPhone 3GS
    synced video from iPhone to iPhoto on Mac
    imported iPhoto video to iMovie
    created movie in iMovie
    used "Share" feature in iMovie to share the movie in iTunes (so I could play on Apple TV)
    synced movie back to iPhone
    deleted movie from Mac (where iTunes was accessing it)
    Now, the movie content only resides on my iPhone...can I get it back from the iPhone onto my Mac (so I can eventually get it back into iTunes)?
    Thank you in advance...

    I've found another thread dealing with the video part of this problem, which, for me, has solved the image problem as well. Here's the thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2489460
    Thanks to Grognard for suggesting this:
    Step one: turn off and on your iPhone.
    Step Two : launch iTunes and iPhoto
    Step three : connect the iPhone to the computer
    Then importation will be possible.
    Clearly this still seems to be a glitch -- these kinds of work-arounds are a huge pain. Hope an update will solve the problem.

  • How to import videos from iPhone 4 to PC?

    I'm trying to get a video that I recorded and edited with my iPhone 4 and iMovie, on my PC so I can share it with others. It won't email because the file size is too big (but the video is only 1:20...) and I uploaded it to YouTube but they removed the audio because it's copyright infringment. I've going through My Computer and a few other things and all the photos get imported but when I try and play an imported video it won't load and just freezes. Any tips?
