Can I lighten MP4 video in iPhoto?

I shot some short video sequences on my digital camera but when I looked at them in Quicktime Pro they are a bit dark. Is there a way to lighten them?

Thanx, Terence. It's weird as the brightness and color change towards the end of this short 20" video. I guess if you change it at the beginning it stays that way all the way through.

  • Since upgrade to Iphone ios6 (4S), I can not import any videos to iPhoto or Image Capture

    Hi there. I have had numberous problems with my upgrade to IOS6, particularly with the Camera/Photos. Two big ones: The camera does not orient itself properly when taking horizontal photos. You take a horizontal photo and it never rotates properly. So I have to go into Photo Shop and rotate each one manually. Sometimes it does not recognize horizontal from vertial when taking as well.
    Also, I can not download ANY videos to iphoto or via Image Capture. The error I get for every video (both new videos shot after upgrade and those that date back to before the upgrade): Import Error An error occured while importing. The item ZZZZ.MOV was not imported.
    I have all my software updates on both my phone and computer.
    Any suggestions?

    I would try restarting you Mac if you haven't already.  If you still can't get either iPhoto or Image Capture to work, you could try something else, like PhotoSync or PhoneView.

  • I can't play  my videos in iPhoto

    I can't play  my videos in iPhoto, doubleclicking them doesn't work anymore. Is there s solution, what can I do?

    Hello, Terence!
    My version of the program is iPhoto'09 8.1.2 (424), my operation system is Mac OS X, version 10.6.8.
    As far as what I was doing when the problem arose, I actually don't know. I have watched some of the videos I have imported from my camera on my computor before, that I do know. But it is now that I have started to make movies in iMovie that I really noticed this problem.
    The video format is IMG (strangely enough) and there are no error messages. I have not been able to import these videos to iMovie, either. I have unsuccessfully searched the iPhoto and iMovie manuals for solutions.
    I have installed a lot of programs on my computer, including Parallels Desktop and Windows 7 (which I put in from the start).
    Thank you so much for your kind help!
    Regards, Joslif

  • Can't get any video from iphoto to sync with itouch

    I have many videos in iPhoto, all imported from a camera.  I wanted to sync these videos to my iTouch, but when I use the "include video" option in the iTunes photo sync, none of the videos came up or was synced. How do I do it?

      I am really frustrated with this "exclusive" thing with Apple.
    Its not a matter of exclusivity and its not just with Apple. Its a matter of a device with a highly streamlined OS that cannot accommodate every format without expanding to be the size of a full-size computer with a full size OS.  In addition, some formats "belong" to another company. Meaning that company owns the right to that format.  So while you may have a file in that format, it actually belongs to another company (Sony, Microsoft, Panasonic, etc.) so Apple would have to pay royalties to that company so that it can have "permission" to even open that file type.
    For example...AVIs (a format developed by and licensed by Microsoft...and not free): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_Video_Interleave
    If you are running Mac OS X 10.6.7:
    Once you have the video on your desktop, right + Click or ctrl + click on the file and choose open with > Quicktime Player X. 
    Then go to Share > iTunes and choose the iPad size.  This will convert the file on the fly to the correct format for iPad.
    Sync the desired movie to iPad.
    Cheers.

  • 9.2.1 update can't scroll my videos in iphoto with trackpad

    Since my update to 9.2.1 I can no longer scroll videos (fast forward or rewind with two fingers) with trackpad. I was able to do this with all videos in iphoto albums prior to update. Is there a setting or solution to this? Very dissapointed as this was my favourite feature of my mac!
    Thanks, Mike

    iPhoto 9.2.3 is incompatible with MacOS 10.9.3 Mavericks. If you are running Mavericks on your system you need to update iPhoto to 9.5.1. Only, the problem is, that this version is no longer available at the App Store.
    The easiest way to get a compatible iPhoto version in that case would be to upgrade to Yosemite, MacOS X 10.10, and then download the most recent iPhoto version from the AppStore, iiPhoto 9.6, like LarryHN suggested.
    If you cannot download iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.6 post back.

  • Why can't I transfer video from iphoto onto an external HD?

    Can anyone tell me why I cannot transfer my iphoto video onto an external hard drive from imovie? Basically I am trying to transfer all my video from imovie onto an external hard drive to clear up space, but I cannot seem to find a way to do the video under iphoto. It let's me transfer all other video, but not the video under iphoto.

    Have you tried the Export function in iPhoto? Since there is one with choices including Quicktime, I would guess that it has to be rendered first. So, you could try that and save it to your desktop and then copy it over (or, if available, directly to the external).

  • Can't export older videos from iPhoto

    Hiya, I hope someone can help me out here.
    My wife and I have a few years worth of videos that were taken on digital cameras and were imported into iPhoto. The videos from the past few years were taken on our iPhones, but the older videos were imported from our old digital camera. All of our videos play correctly within iPhoto. But I recently tried to export my videos from iPhoto, and the older videos do not play. They are very short - usually about 10K to 500K, and they are zero length. When you press play they just immediately skip to the end. It's almost like they are a photo. This happens in iMovie and when I try to play the video directly out of the finder.
    Now, I did my homework on exporting and made sure to chose 'Original'. And all of the exported videos from the past three years (the iPhone videos) or so work just fine. So I don't think I messed up my iPhoto export somehow. Another interesting wrinkle is that I can choose 'locate in finder' for the older videos and find the movie that way and it plays just fine. These videos in the iPhoto library are also the correct size - 10M or so. So I suppose that if worst comes to worst I can just manually copy every single video. But I'd like for the export process to work.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Justin

    If you want to find all videos/movies very quickly in iPhoto create a Smart Album with the criteria:  Photo is Movie.

  • Can't load MP4 videos to itunes 12.1.1.4

    Trying to load MP4 videos to itunes and no longer am able to do so.  WHY?  How can I get my MP4 videos into itunes and onto my ipad?

    I found Turingtest2's excellent troubleshooting article at Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates with a link to the new 12.1.1.4 build for older video cards.  Just installed it and everything is back working again.  Thanks Turing!

  • Can't retrieve MP4 video files

    Hi guys,
    Been trying to find an answer to a question I have. We use the Cisco Surveillance server and cameras (6400)
    We had an accident the other night and I was able to create a MP4 video file. I then got to the video display in the Surveillance Manager 
    and I right click the video feed and get clip status. Here it says video complete. I then click on the video I created at the bottom of the screen, it asks me for a location to save the file then it tries to download the file to that location and fails. Anyone know whats going on?
    Thanks!!! 

    Hi,
    1. Login into VSOM
    2. Go to settings --> Server --> select the server.
    3. Under general Tab --> Services. Click on Advanced for the media server you are trying to generate clip.
    4. Under Partitions. Clipping box is CHECKED?

  • How can I disable .mp4 videos from playing automatically on Yahoo News? (and elsewhere)

    I posted a similar question last week about disabling html5 videos and that seems to have worked. But I notice that when I look at the Yahoo News main page, some videos (thumbnails) are playing automatically as I'm scrolling up and down the page. I find that annoying, distracting, and is probably consuming data on my limited plan.
    I see other questions posted about .mp4, but those are all how to PLAY rather than NOT play videos.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    You can look at: Stop Autoplay: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1765

  • Can't get MP4 Video to import

    These are the specs on a video file on my computer recorded off of a JVC GY-HM 100U. I can't get it to import into FCPX, and it wont' import into Compressor.
    What is apple's official stance on what to do with these files?
    What is the easiest way to get this into FCPX? Is there any way of doing this without having to use a third party program? I find it insane that a professional editing system such as FCPX and Compressor would not be enough to handle a file as common as an MP4.
    (ps i'm well aware that the JVC camera is capable of recording the file as a .MOV, but i wasn't the one who shot the footage).

    I looked at FCPX's manual online and it states...
    If you’re importing video clips from a still camera or other flash memory device, make sure the file format of your video is MPEG-2, MPEG-4, or AVCHD, all of which are compatible with Final Cut Pro.
    ...So it says MPEG-2 AND MPEG-4 are acceptable formats. So why is this still not working?

  • How can I make mp4 videos play in Firefox?

    YouTube works fine. Other websites play videos, no problem.
    But then I'll go to a website and see a message that the video is either corrupt or is not supported.
    When I search for how to play mp4 in Firefox I end up at this site:
    http://www.jwplayer.com/blog/the-state-of-html5-firefox-now-supports-mp4/
    With the huge headline Firefox Now Supports MP4.
    No, it ****ing doesn't!
    A bit frustrated, because everywhere I look for help on this, I either come across pages saying it should work, Firefox supports mp4 etc, OR forums where it's webmakers asking the question and then the solution is something wrong in their coding - which doesn't help me, the lonely end user.
    When I go to this suggested test site: http://techslides.com/demos/sample-videos/small.mp4
    I get the error message: Video can't be played because the file is corrupt.
    No, it's not. I can download it and play it on WinAmp.
    When I go to this suggested test site: http://www.html5videoplayer.net/html5video/mp4-h-264-video-test/
    I get the error: No video with supported format and MIME type found.
    Huh? Again, I can download and play it fine.
    But Firefox won't play it.
    Soooooo
    Is there a fix in the wind?
    Is there something I can tweak or change to make Firefox recognize and play this stuff?
    Is there a plugin/extension/addon that I need to download to play mp4?
    If this is a known problem that is going to be fixed eventually, is there something I can do as a substitute (ie a plugin for now)?
    Because it seems like the only alternative is to abandon Firefox and start using Chrome, which has no problem with the above-mentioned videos.

    I have win7 home, firefox 35.0.1. Java but no other add-on/extension that matters.
    And it works, both your links.
    Try running firefox in safe mode and see if it works

  • How can I find a video in iPhoto?

    I am trying to find a video I took on my iPhone last year, and was subsequently imported into iPhoto.  I have all these possibilities to see "Events", "Albums", "Dates," "Faces," etc., but see no way to see only movies.  I tried looking back through the last year of imports, but did not see it there.  There must be some way to view only videos, mustn't there?
    I'm running iPhoto '09 v. 8.1.2 on a PowerMac (OSX v. 10.9.3).
    I must say, I miss the pre-OSX days, when Macintoshes and their filing systems made sense!

    File -> New Smart Album
    Photo -> is -> Movie
    Or search for mov...
    You'll continue to have problems with apps like iPhoto, iMovie and iTunes if you confuse them with the filing system. They're all databases, more powerful than the filing system, but with a learning curve. And, of course, none of them are compulsory. You can just stuff files in folders if you want.
