Can I download footage onto iMovie using a USB stick?

Hi there,
Very quick question. Can I download my footage, which is saved on a 16gb USB stick, directly to iMovie? If not then is there a way I can get round this?
I don't have a camcorder as the footage was shot on my Super 8 camera and then transferred professionally.
Many thanks! x

It depends. Mainly on what codec the service used.
Im iMovie, try FILE/IMPORT MOVIES and navigate to the external USB stick, select a file and import it.
If it does not work, see if you can open the file in QuickTime Player, then click WINDOW/INSPECTOR and tell us what is listed next to the word "Format"

  • I have two macbooks can I download Mavericks once and use a usb to install it on another

    I have two macbooks can I download Mavericks once and use a usb or something to install it on another.
    this is because I have limited high speed bandwith and after 10 gb of download in a month my internet is chargeable or slow.
    So please help, me,
    Last time I asked a question, It was unanswered, I hoped someone solves this problem, so here is my arrow in the dark.

  • How can I download Firefox onto a disk from my Windows PC, and then take the disk to my Mac and upload it to use on the Mac? Safari does not work anymore.

    My Mac assures me that I am connected to the internet, using Airport and also ethernet, but Safari never gives me a home page. Can I download Firefox onto a disk using my Windows PC and then take the disk to the Mac and upload Firefox to use on the Mac ?

    You can grab a "full" installer (.dmg file) from this page (scroll down to your preferred language):

    Change product platform or language
    You can swap languages/platforms for a latest version product (CS6 only) if you follow the instructions at the following link:

    Alternative: If you wish to continue using the software on the Windows machine as well then your only recourse without buying again would be to install a Windows emulator on the Mac so that it has the rght environment to install in

  • A friend gifted me a copy of The Amazing Spider-man, I redeemed the code, now it tells me I can't download it onto my Ipad (1st Gen) because it does not have a gyroscope. Is there a way for my friend to get his money back, or a way for me to download it?

    As a second option I can play on my 1st gen Ipod Touch. Does that have a gyroscope?

    Contact iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history or,
    iTunes Customer Service Contact - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html > Get iTunes support via Express Lane > iTunes > iTunes Store - Apple states all sales are final, but you can always ask nicely.  Your friend should have checked the specifications of your ipad before making the gift.

    Yes.
    Create a bootable installer for OS X Mavericks or Yosemite - Apple Support
    Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy and paste the following command line in its entirety into the Terminal window.
    sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app --nointeraction
    Press RETURN, enter admin password (will not echo to the window) then press RETURN again.
    You need to have the installer in your Applications folder or change the paths in the above command line.

    You can download them onto your Mac's iTunes, but they can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch - Apple have so far not made a Mac (or PC) reader for them.
