Can Premiere Pro Import mov files with Dolby E?

Hello,
I'm trying to import mov file containing Dolby E audio. The import operation failed.
Is there a solution to that ?
I just need to playback with the audio in pass through mode, to export in sdi signal as AES data.
Thanks for your help.

Get 'Generic Error' when attempting to import .mov files with transparency?

I get the 'Generic Error' when attempting to import .mov files with transparency? I'm trying to use mattes with an alpha channel but I cannot import them. I have had this same issue since cs6, now I have it with cc 2014? Any clues would be most appreciated.
I have uninstalled the DVCPro Codec, but it didn't help.
I have tried converting the .mov file (which is now automatic in Yosemite) and this creates a ProRes4444 Codec, Again no luck with import.
I've seen this issue on the web, but never a solution? Anyone?

Hi Terence,
I tried iPhoto Library Manager but it could not solve my problem. Opening the iPhoto library I can see that the reference to the pictures are pointing to my old location not to the new one. I considered running a script that would change all pointers since this is basically what is needed (in my case from /Volumes/RAID1/Fotos/XXX to /Volumes/Fotos/XXX). Instead I inserted a soft unix link to make to connection but that did not work. It is referring to the airport disk by the airport name rather than the mounted disk name. Very strange indeed. The problem is maybe not in iPhoto but in OSX? Anyway, maybe the only way out is to take some hours and manually run through all linked photos... cumbersome and annoying!

Why can't I import .mov files to Aperture 3.4.3?

I have three movies (.mov files) transferred from an iPhone 4 (using Image Capture) to my Mac, where the movies play just fine. Aperture can't even see these files if I navigate to them using the normal Import function, and if I drag them from the Desktop into an album, the cursor shows the 'plus' sign indicating that a copy is to be made, but nothing happens except for an alert informing me that 0 files have been successfully imported. The Aperture manual says that it will import .mov files, so what am I doing wrong?

Thanks Léonie, but my settings are exactly as per your screenshot, and I've tried all other options in the RAW+JPEG menu, without success.
I'm sure the movies are not corrupted as they play in QuickTime Player and can be drag-imported to iPhoto with no problem at all. (They cannot, however, be dragged from iPhoto into Apeture, as still images can.)
I have just tried importing a couple of different movies but the same problem occurs. It seems as though some component of Aperture is missing. Is that possible? Should I reinstall Aperture?
Thanks, Steve.

How can I copy or move files with elements 10 organizer ?

Hello,
since a couple of days I use Elements10 Organizer under Windows 7 Home. Since then Im testing how to come along with the product and it's features. Though I had many good impressions of many functions that work excellent I now have severe problems to organize my workflow. The problem is: I can*t copy or move files or directories with the organizer and worse, I can't find files or directories that where copied, moved or renamed by Windows 7 Explorer even when I import or load the specified directory into the elements10 catalogue again. Off course I understand the elements 10 philosophy to have an image only one time within the data base and to arrange every collecting idea by tags and catagiories. Nevertheless there is a need to have sometimes a copy and also to know where the copy is and to manage it. Right now I find no way to handle these tasks by elements 10 organizer. I am a newbe on photoshop elements.
I would appreciate if there is anybody who knows a solution to me. Thanks and bye, Woenni

I am also having this same exact problem. Only some, and not all of the files on my external hard drive will copy. I get the "No Symbol" when trying to copy or move files.
I am able to duplicate all files. I also can right click on a file and select copy. However on some files, I can't ever paste it (paste doesn't show up or is grayed out), drag it to another folder, or drag-and-copy it to another location or drive.
The files are not locked and I have read and write permissions.
The external that I'm trying to move and copy files from is a FAT32. Could that be a problem? How do I get my files off of this drive?

How can I link 1 movie file with several logic projects?

Hi all,
I've been working on the music for a film with a colleague of mine and are sharing logic files via dropbox. 72 cues had to be altered for logisitical reason to work in someone else's studio for the final mix. Since I had a copy of the movie on my machine and my colleague had a copy on his we thought that if we put our movie into the root directory of our logic project's folder then the movie would automatically load up with the projects after we shared them via dropbox. We checked to make sure that both movies had the same filename. Unfortunately this did not work and we had to then reassociate 72 cues individually with each logic project. With such limited time to prepare the cues for the final mix this really took too much time.
Is there any way in logic (9.1.8) to associate 1 movie file with a number of logic projects quickly, without having to open up the project and select open movie?
kind regards
/mischa

Seems to me that if you both had the movie file in the same location on both of your drives (eg on Macintosh HD at root level, in no other folder) then all the project files would search for this common path and find the file.
The problem arises when there is even a small difference between path names.
Unfortunately, this won't help you at this point as all the project files already are associated with unique file paths for the movie. By now, you've probably already done it one by one - but maybe for next time....?
There's no bulk or quick way to do this.

Cannot import .MOV files with Premiere Elements 12: generic error. Using Windows 8.1 (64b)

This question was already on the forum for older version of Premiere and Windows. I'm making my videos (.MOV format) with the digital camera Casio EX-ZR400.
I have no any problems with Photoshop Elements 12 for pictures produced by this camera.

Dngineer
What is the source of your .mov file..(brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the video)......what is the video and audio compression and frame rate?
Are you working with the 12.1 Update of 12? If not, please do so using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. Both QuickTime and Premiere Elements need to be run from a User Account with Administrative Privileges. Are you doing that?
Narrowing things down
Are all files with the .mov file extensions the only video files that you cannot import into the program? Any exceptions?
When you open Premiere Elements 12/12.1 to the Expert workspace and go to Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime, does that choice have its presets?
Let us start here and decide what next based on your reply.
Thank you.

Can't not import mov files into AE.

This problem has appeared for some of the time. It causes several things I can't do in my After Effect, but I really have no idea how I can fix it.
Problem 1: wait a long time to open the AE, it hangs on the initializing media core and takes about 10-15 mins to get through.
Problem 2: can't import the mov files, and if I import the mov to the AE project, this pop up comes
"After Effects error: file 'file name.mov' cannot be imported - this 'MooV file is damaged or unsupported.'"
Problem 3: can't output the comp as mov. and this pop up warming comes
"After Effects: One of the output modules could not be imported. It has been reset to use the default setting for the selected file format."
I read some threads and I knew this might cause by the blocked communication between AE and QT. But I have double check my QT, it is version 7.6.6 and I have no firewall software installed, hence the communication is okay (i guess, since I can play the mov file normally and not the warm message that “QuickTime is not installed on this system…”) .
Some other thread says may because of the three party component in the QT Library. This may make sense, cause I install some converters for converting the wmv and avi before…
Here are the components in the QT Library:
AviImporter.component
FFusion.component
iChatTheaterPreview.component
IMXCodec.component
XviD_Codec.component
↑↑The above 5 component I have move them out, but no luck still ↑↑
AppleAVCIntraCodec.component
AppleHDVCodec.component
AppleIntermediateCodec.component
AppleMPEG2Codec.component
AppleProResCodec.component
DesktopVideoOut.component
DVCPROHDCodec.component
DVCPROHDMuxer.component
DVCPROHDVideoDigitizer.component
DVCPROHDVideoOutput.component
DVCPROHDVideoOutputClock.component
DVCPROHDVideoOutputCodec.component
FCP Uncompressed 422.component
LiveType.component
Could anyone give me some advise regarding to those problems, and is there any of the above component I should move away. DEL .\/.
Thanks so much in advance for any of your help and advise, really appreciate that! thanks!
Donna
Here are some background info about my mac:
Mac OSX 10.6.8
2x3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
8GB memory
AE CS5
QuickTime Player 7 version 7.6.6

I was having the same problem and so far this solution has worked for me. (knock on wood)
Try setting your default player for .mov files to QuickTime. (Mine was set to Windows Media Player)
Right click on one of the mov files you are having a problem opening in AE.
Select the "Open with" and select "Choose default program..." at the bottom.
Select Quick Time. (Make sure the "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" box is checked.)
Reboot your computer.
Open AE and see if it works.

Why can't i import .mov files into imovie

Everytime recently I've tried to import a .mov file into imovie, its come up with the optimizing video box but nothing happens, I used to import straight from the camera, but I've recently emptied my camera onto my hard drive after a trip to New Zealand and now, when I have tried to import the footage from my hard drive, it does the optimizing video freeze on me. I would like to be able to get these movies into Imovie without having to pay a rediculous amount of money for some little converting program. I originally bought a apple computer, because I thought everything worked with each other, but now, I'm not so sure about that anymore.
Also, I've tried MPEG streamclip and all that did was either freeze on me or make the video size smaller, as in, the sides were pushed in and it ruined the video.

What codec are the files? .mov is a container that can house many different video codecs.
Is your camera supported?

Why can't I import .mov files?

I am trying to add .mov files and nothing happens no matter which import method I use. They are not under Home Movies or anywhere else. It seems like every time a new update or software version comes out, it breaks more than it fixes.

I merely saved the PPT with its timings as a .mov from PowerPoint for Mac.
FCPX wasn't able to recognize it, but IMovie was. I merely did a straight import
It was about 30 minutes long. The audio didn't transfer however, so I was going to use Final Cut to add it.
The information I got from the quicktime inspector was:
640 x 480 pixels (Actual)
218.65 kbit/s
33.8 MB0.03

Can Premiere Pro CC(2014) files be opened in old PP-CC?

The college where I teach is not upgrading to CC (2014) just yet.
If I upgrade my own Premiere Pro app to the (2014) version, will I be able to exchange files back and forth between them? Or would it be a one-way trip into 2014 with no return to CC?
Or, are they interchangeable, but with a few hitches I should be aware of?
Thanks,
Roger Spendlove

Thank you all for the helpful answers -- just what I needed to know. I think I'll still refrain from updating to (2014), as I'm certain at some point to accidentally save a file in (2014) and then be unable to open it at the school--disaster in front of a live audience of students! Also, I don't want to get used to features and interface nuances that don't quite match what I'm demonstrating on the school's computers.
I believe the college will be updating probably next quarter (or the one after). It's complicated, as Adobe's deal with them for delivering installer packages is a bit convoluted. But I'm sure they'll update eventually. And then I will, too.
Thanks again for the help!

How can I open a .mov file with iMovie?

Hi,
I keep trying to open a .mov file in iMovie and it isn't doing it. Is that not a recognized file extension? Should I convert the video file somehow?
Thanks!

.mov is just a container for a variety of video codecs, some of which are not recognized by iMovie. You will need to convert it first with a third party app such as Media Converter (which is free, see: http://media-converter.sourceforge.net).
Another free app VideoSpec (see: http://videospec.free.fr) is useful for identifying all the details of a video clip

Can no longer import QT files with alpha channel

I have been using these client supplied QT with alpha channel files just fine for weeks, then all of a sudden, after a crash the other day, I was unable to open sequences with these files and exoprt them, the exporter would just freeze. the clips played in the timeline, but VERY sluggish.
On the reccomendation of a few posts around here, I removed the clips from the project, and now I cannot import them back in, I get a "the importer reported a generic error" message. I am able to open in QT pro and export to a new file that will import to PPro, but I lose the alpha channel.
As always, I'm up against a deadline and any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have installed QT 7.07, no help.
I'm on a windows 7 machine running CS master collection 5.0, Quad core AMD with 8 gig RAM.
These files worked fine just days ago!!!!
BTW, I just switched over to Premiere a few months ago and to honest I can't understand how anyone would stick with this buggy software, as a professional I've never used anything this bad before.

Welcome to the forum.
Try these. Attempt to re-import after each one:
Clean the media cache database via Edit | Preferences | Media
If step 2 doesn't work, then find all the .qtindex, .mpgindex, .cfa and .pek files associated with the media that's supposed to be in your project and delete them. Then clean the media cache database again.
Launch Pr and while it's launching, hold down the Alt + Shift keys until the Welcome screen appears. Alt resets your preferences and Shift resets the plug-in cache.
To address the other issues you say you've been having with Pr, you should start a different thread (or threads). Coming from other editors, there may be a difference in the way Pr does things that produce unexpected results that may be seen as bugs. More serious issues, such as crashes, can often be caused by 3rd-party hardware like AJA, Matrox or BlackMagic and the associated drivers. Outdated or incorrect drivers for audio and video cards can also cause problems. I recommend that you start troubleshooting those areas first.
Other issues may have workarounds. If you have serious, reproducible problems that have no workaround, then please file bug reports here:

Premiere Pro and .mov files

It is clear there is a problem with variable frame rate on Premiere. I'm reading statements all over the net about it. Okay, cool. I have no choice: I'm using Wirecast and for the last two years all of our shows were shot in Quicktime .mov format. Probably more than 100 of them. When I play them, I get audio artifacts and ultimately the audio falls out of sync, resulting in a 1 to 3 MINUTE lag of the audio at the end of the 1 hour show.
I need to go in and watermark all of these shows and put new opening and closing credits on these shows before I archive them.
What is the fastest way to get Premeire to sync up audio on variable frame rate files? I can't tell you how exhausting it would be to discover I need to import each and every one of these videos into something like Sony Vegas, convert it out and THEN begin my work...
Ideas?
Thanks!

Thanks John! That sent me on a rabbit trail which led to the solution!
Oh... man... Adobe... please PLEASE start listening to your user base! Some of us (read: ME) pay $600 a YEAR to have these massive headaches!
So, User base: let me tell you what I've discovered: If there is a variable frame rate (As there often is with things broadcast to the web), Premiere can't handle it. You must convert it using another program (I used "Handbrake" which is a nifty free converter... be sure to click "Constant bitrate"). And then import it into Premiere.
Doing my due diligence, This actually has been a problem since CS4... I guess few people actually record their broadcasts? Or else they are good with it? Or maybe it's just Wirecast that records variable frame rates... I don't know. Either way, I had a workflow repair.
Now I'm off with ANOTHER problem, my newest project won't work in Premiere EITHER, different workflow, different camera and even a different system.. I'm thinking I need to be asking what formats should I record in so I can actually edit in Premiere? *Sigh*

Why can't I import .MOV files or Imovie project?

I converted a Power point presentation to a .mov and FCPX wouldn't recognize it. I got an alert that there were no importable files.
I did import it into IMovie, and could work on it there, but Imovie audio implementation is so bad that I didn't want to even mess with it, so I tried to import the project into FCPX form an IMovie project but it came up blank.

I merely saved the PPT with its timings as a .mov from PowerPoint for Mac.
FCPX wasn't able to recognize it, but IMovie was. I merely did a straight import
It was about 30 minutes long. The audio didn't transfer however, so I was going to use Final Cut to add it.
