Can not import movies - error 2041 on quicktime

I am trying to import some movies from my pc to my itunes library and it is not working. I get the "processing file" and it looks like they are importing, but when I go to my movie queue (or any other queue for that matter), they are not there. I tried opening the files in quicktime, and I get a ERROR 2041. Is this the reason why they are not importing? Thanks

Download and install QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later on your iMac and see if they will play with that.

I can not import .mov files on each video software, Premiere, AfterEffects and Media Encoder also Photoshop.

...All of them does not import Prorez or other Quicktime files. I m run Yosemite 10.10.2 with Prorez codecs vrs. 2.

Yosemite sometimes has problems, often related to "default" permissions needing to be changed

Can not import .mov files

i've been trying to import a QT movie created in After Effects. Will not import. FCX keeps crashing.

"When i import it shows it as "rejected"
What does that mean? You mean it has a red bar across the top? How does the application tell you it's rejected?
You'd better have plenty of RAM, a fast processor, and a fast drive to support 1080p Animation.

Can not import .mov

I have opened a .wmv file in QuickTime Pro 7 and saved as a .mov file. When I try and open this in iMovie both versions are greyed out; am I missing a vital step in the process?!

I may well have confused myself here! I received a .wmv file and wanted to view it. The Quick Time Player that comes with Snow Leopard will not do this without Flip4Mac. I downloaded the Flip4mac beta for Snow Leopard and indeed the .wmv then played within the email it came in.
Fine so far but then I wanted to edit it and so I purchased the Flip4Mac PlayerPro to enable the import into iMovie09 only then to find this only supports iMovie06. The work around from Telestream is to purchase QuickTime Pro and save the .wmv as a .mov which I did but this was not recognised by iMovie!
With the reply above I have exported as MPeg file and I can indeed now open the file in iMovie 09.
Thank you for the response so far that has achieved the required result but it leaves me puzzled as to whether I ever need to buy Flip4Mac Player Pro or whether QuickTime 7 Pro will play a .wmv and export as an MPeg without any more than the free Flip4Mac utility?

Aloha Everyone,
Need some help again...I just imported some clips from my hard drive into Imovie. Then as I began to import the next few clips, imovie says that it can not import this file and gives me error 4960. I've tried to download the manuals etc to see what this error is, but to no avail. Could someone please tell me if you know what this error is...or where I can find that information.
Much Mahalos
Aloha

Latest version of itunes does not support Quicktime can not play movie from library

Latest version of Itunes does not support Quicktime. I can not play movies out of my itunes. Please fix

I don't usually download video from the iTunes store. I had a couple of long plane rides coming up and thought I might have time to watch the Stanford IOS7 programming class. On the plane I discovered this issue which has gone unaddressed since 2011 and has been worsened in Mavericks. in 2011 the advice was to open iTunes' get info pane and click run in 32 bit. That worked at least for some people. In Mavericks, iTunes will not launch in 32 bit.
For the files you can locate in the finder ( mine are at
/Users/raine001/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Media/iTunes\ U/Developing\ iOS\ 7\ Apps\ for\ iPhone\ and\ iPad/1.\ Class\ Logistics\,\ Overview\ of\ iOS\,\ MVC\,\ Objective-C.mp4
) you can click on the file in the finder and it will launch in QuickTime. For some reason on the plane I could see the first lecture in the iTunes view but, although I could see all the other lectures in the finder, I could not see the first one.
Ah well, maybe some other year I'll think about getting up to speed on ios7. Heck, maybe by then they will design a decent user experience.

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.

My itunes can not import or add AVI movie files created by Canon PS SD450.

Can not add movies to the iTunes Library

I have an iMAC running iTunes 10.4 on s install of Lion. I have had this problem with previous versions of OS/X and iTunes. I have the exact same problem on Windows.
I just can not import a movie to the library. I've used File>Import as well as drag&drop. In both cases, nothing happens; no message of any kind, no progress bar, nothing. The movie is not copied. I have tried multiple file types (avi, mp4, mv4 etc) with the same problem. I can import music fine. Just no movies.
One time, a couple days ago, I used the drag and drop and worked; I have no idea why; Trying to import the same movie results in the same 'nothing happens'.
Any thoughts/suggestions on how to get this working? It is so annoying that there is absolutely no message of any kind popping up anywhere to indicate what the heck is going on.
I'm guessing it may be something to do with unsupported file types. But why no message, and why it did work just a couple of days ago?
Thanks.

To address at least part of the problem, confirm is that the videos are in a format iTunes can accept and play. AVI is not one of them, for instance. See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2729?viewlocale=en_US
Note that there are non-standard formats that still use the .mp4 file extension. iTunes supports only industry-standard MPEG-4 movies, not the offshoots created by some encoders such as Microsoft's.
Why a movie that worked previously is not working now, though, I don't know. Just to confirm, will that movie play in QuickTime Player?
Regards.

Can not import Outlook 2007 .CSV or .PST files into Outlook 2013 on Win 8.1 64 bit

I have a new computer (Sony VAIO Pro 11 Ultrabook) with a brand new install of Win 8.1 - 64 bit and MS Office 2013 Professional Plus. Everything works fine EXCEPT I can not import my contacts or calendar from Outlook 2007 Win 7 - 32 bit into the
.msn folders in each case. I can open .pst files in Outlook 2013 but they open in a local file and when I copy and paste them into the Exchange ActiveSync .msn contact and calendar files so that they will sync with Outlook.com Outlook 2013 crashes.
It can't even be reopened unless the wireless is turned off, and then you have to create a new data file as a default and then delete the old account and re-establish it. I have tried using the import functions as well with both
.CSV and .PST files that were exported from Outlook 2007 and an error message stating that this is not supported comes up. I have also tried to turn on sync with my iPhone to see if the files will sync from the phone through Outlook.com and nothing happens
there either - no sync on the web and nothing at the PC. Email works fine after adding the account again etc.
None of the procedures on the forums work (open PST file in the local folder then copy/paste, drag/drop, or move the files) so please don't respond with those links. All result in crash. Does anyone at MS know what's up with their latest
and greatest SW?
Thank you for your assistance.

Import the calendar and contacts in Outlook.com. For contacts, export from Outlook as csv and import into Outlook by choosing the Other option (https://people.live.com/import/other?biciid=ImportCatalog)
You'll need to save the calendar as an ics file to import it. Select the calendar folder, the File, Save as an save as an ics.

Can I import movies originating from video's that were put on a DVD import in IMovie?, Can I import movies originating from video's that were put on a DVD import in IMovie?

Can I import movies originating from video's that were put on a DVD import into IMovie?

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it. See this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

I suddenly can't watch .mov files with the QuickTime Player x?

I suddenly can't watch .mov files with the QuickTime Player x? There is always the message, i should look after new software! Can you help me?

Handy-dandy cut and paste to the rescue!
you need to install some other stuff to get the full file functionality back.
Here's the list.
Start with QT 7.6.6. - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923
Get Perian, and install it. - http://perian.org
then VLC, - http://videolan.org
DivX - http://divx.com - and the
Flip4Mac package from Telestream - http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac/
A52/AC3 downloader: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/21875/a52codec - In this installer package there is an audio A52Codec.component. DO NOT USE IT! Throw it out and use the one that is linked below.
This is what I've put into my system and so far I've gotten every file to run fine, even my oldest videos.
These are codecs you should see.
In System/Library/QuickTime
     AppleIntermediateCodec.component
     AppleMPEG2Codec.component* (*optional if you've bought it)
     DivX Decoder.component
     Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component
     Flip4Mac WMV Export.component
     Flip4Mac WMV Import.component
In your Home/Library/QuickTime/
     AC3MovieImport.component (you may or may not want this component, in some instances it causes conflicts. In my system, it doesn't. Who knows why? I don't.)
     Perian.component
For AC3 sound that is in most .mkv files, you need the A52Codec.component, this is the one you want, here: https://code.google.com/p/subler/downloads/detail?name=A52Codec.component.zip - unzip the file and put the component into the System/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components
Go back to your Perian settings and in the Audio Output button, set it to 'Multi Channel Sound' - Ignore the message Perian puts up and select it.
By doing a 'Get Info' on your files and where it says 'Open With' - default them to the QuickTime 7 program. Perian no longer will work with QuickTime Player so you must have QT 7.6.6 and set it so it is the default for all the filetypes you use.
It works perfectly with QT7. So far I've gotten ALL my old videos to play.
.avi, .mov (with the AC3 sound), .wmv, .flv, .mp4 and .m4v. all run fine as do all the older formats.
Good luck!
Deb.
