Can't import .mov prores 422

I'm trying to import a .mov file and keep getting the message "No importable files"
I did some reading on the forums and there seems to be no reason I shouldn't be able to import as the file is ProRes 422
Any thoughts?

No I've had FCPX for a couple years with no changes. I don't use it much cause I don't like it, but am stuck at home today - I usually use 7 at my school. Just wanted to mess around with this file...not worth the 4 hours that have gone into trying to figure this out lol
What kind of sample? It's a pretty huge file - 29gigs

Can Not Import Apple ProRes 422 HQ Files Into Color

I am able to navigate to the files I want to import and they then show up in the Setup window, but when I highlight a clip and then select the Import button, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? These clips are from a Canon 7D and then converted to Apple ProRes 422 HQ.

Check your "Shots" bin to see if they are importing, but are not in the timeline window. They could be importing, but simply aren't where you expect them to be. The timeline preview doesn't adapt, so it could simply be a matter of zooming or scrolling around to find them.
If they really, really aren't importing, then its likely some kind of hiccup in the conversion that COLOR doesn't like. When you select the clip in the COLOR browser it is identified and may or may not qualify for import. What is COLOR interpreting the media to be?
Is your timeline locked?

Can you import movie videos from SD camera card

Can you import movie videos (MP4) into an Ipad from an SD camera card on a Lightning cable ... or can you only do this from a laptop via Itunes? In other words, is Itunes the only way to get non-Itune videos to the Ipad? Hope I havent made this sound confusing.

To import the videos must follow a very strict naming convention.
All file names must have 8 characters for a name and be located in a folder named DCIM
for example
DCIM
MOV_5789.mp4
You can't watch the videos off the cart, they must be imported into the iPad. They'll go into the camera roll, when you tap on them it'll open the video app and you can watch from there.

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:

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.

TS1721 can i import movies to my Itunes library

can I import movies to my Itunes library

Hi, by default you can only add M4V, MP4 and MOV files. Simply drag and drop them into your library. If you have videos in other file formats (like AVI or MKV) you have two solutions: convert them with a tool like HandBrake. That takes a lot of work and time. Or you use a dedicated tool to import movies in iTunes. I use VideoDrive (www.aroona.net) for this. It will create small references to your videos in iTunes. And it will also add descriptions and covers so they look as nice as officially purchased movies. Keep in mind that if you do not convert the videos, they will not play on iOS devices. VideoDrive (and some others) to support conversions as well. So you always have the choice.
In my case, I add the videos without conversions so they are nicely categorized in iTunes. And the videos I do want to watch on my iPad, I convert later on. You can do this by selecting a video in iTunes and clicking File -> Create new version. Or use the 'Duplicate Video' feature of VideoDrive. I can imagine that this is overkill if you only have a couple of videos, but if you have a lot, it's great to have them all showing up with artwork in iTunes.

Why is DVD SP4 creating a corrupt video in the timeline when the corruption does not appear in the imported Quicktime ProRes 422 self contained movie?

I am having a strange issue that just occurred when trying to create a DVD using DVD Studio Pro 4. The workflow is as follows: Import a self contained Quicktime ProRes 422 as an asset into DVDSP 4. Drag the assets onto Track 1 in the Graphical viewer as a First Play item. The video is only corrupted in a section of the timeline, yet when you look at that section in Quicktime the video appears to be ok. Does anyone have an idea why this is happenning?

Thanks for the quick reply Gary. I was wondering why this corruption happenned recently, when I have used this workflow previously without any artifacts for several years. Do you think that something has gotten corrupted in DVDSP?
Do you also recommend using Compressor always to created the files for DVDSP vs. having DVDSP do the encoding?
Thanks

Can't import movies to iTunes after setting up iTunes Match

Hi. I setup iTunes Match a couple of weeks ago (love it, btw), but for some reason since I set it up I can no longer import .m4v files into the Movies library. There is no error, they just never copy over.
iTunes 10.6.1(7) 64-bit on MacPro running OS X 10.7.3
Any ideas? Maybe its a strange coincidence, but I noticed the problem shortly after setting up Match.

Also, iTunes match gets stuck sometimes so you have to log out of match and log back in before your imported movies show up in your iTunes library.

How can I import movies NOT into my home folder?

Recently got a brand new iMac with SSD and classic hard drive.
The OS and the User folder resides on the SSD but the SSD is limited in size.
Of course, when importing movies from camera archives or directly from a camera I don't want them to go to the Movies folder in my home folder but instead to another folder on the 2nd 2 TB hard drive.
However, I couldn't find any setting in iMovie's preferences for this.
There must be a way! Storing footage on that SSD doesn't make sense at all.
So, how do I do that with the latest iMovie? (Version 9.1.x)

On the import screen, you can select your other drive. This selection will become the default until you change it on the import screen.
For Events that are already on the SSD, you can move them from within iMovie.
Click View/Events By Disk.
Now you should see both drives in the Event Library.
Hold down the command key while dragging the small icon for your event to the icon for the disk other disk drive in the Event Library List. (if you do not hold down the command key, it will Copy, not Move)

Can't import .mov file how to convert it

Hi Guys
I have been sent ten .mov video files which i can open it in quick time but can't import into imovie 09
I have tried to re-save in quick time but didn't make any difference, the files are still not able to import, also the person who sent them labeled the files with a / in the name I changed this but still made no difference,
the properties are
H.264, 320 x 240, Millions
AAC, 2 channels, 32000 Hz
FPS: 12
data size: 474 KB
data rate: 198.26 kbit/s
current size - 478 x 359 pixels
I want to be able to import them all into imovie 09 so I can edit them and join together, can you recommend a reliable free software that I can do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Thanks so much for the great advice, I downloaded mpeg streamclip and I have been playing around with converting my video.
There are many different options and I have tried a few but the quality of the picture is slightly pixelated. Can you advise me about the best option to use to get the best quality picture.
I want to be able to edit it in imovie, so I was exporting it to quicktime but there are many other options which would you recommend?
When I exported it to quicktime I tried the following options
I have tried compression -
Apple motion jpeg A
png - sound played but picture was frozen and didn't play
Tiff - same thing as png
but there is an endless list and I'm not sure what it all means.
There are also many different frame sizes, I use (4:3) in imovie but it also had a 320 x 240 unscaled I'm not sure what this means?
Are there any other options/boxes I should be altering/checking?
Sorry for asking so many questions.
I'm not really very familiar with all these terms, it's a completely new language to me.
Any advice would be really appreciated
Thanks again for helping me out : )

How can I import movies from iTunes to iMovie?

I download video lectures from iTunes University to iTunes 10 and need to export them to iMovie 11 for editing. How can I do this?

I can't figure out how to import from iTunes into iMovie. I can select and view all movies in iTunes, but don't see any options for moving them to iMovie. Any suggestions?
Open iMovie '08, select the "Import Movies..." File menu option, navigate to where the movie is located on your hard drive and import it in the "Copy" mode. Alternatively, navigate to the file in the finder and "drop import" the file directly to a convenient named "event" in the open iMovie '08 application or "event" folder if the iMovie '08 application is not open.

Can't import .mov files from my camera into iPhoto

I am not able to import .mov files from my kodak camera into iPhoto. It says the file is not readable. Also, if there are any photos after the video file, those are said to be unreadable too, even if I select just the photots for import. I tried to import the .mov file with image capture as well, and that gave me an import error also. I can view the file fine on my camera and iPhoto and image capture both will give me the properties of the video file but will not import. I have imported .miv files before with no trouble. I have tried several different files with the same results. Even tried different memory cards. Not sure how to get this file on my computer or why there is a problem all of the sudden.
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions,
What model of Kodak is it?
There is a discussion thread on this topic: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11942367&#11942367
Try using a media card reader (sometimes built into printers) to see if that allows the import. Others seem to report having luck by importing the movies off the card using a different computer, deleting them, and then importing the pictures.
Hope that helps.

Can't import .mov file from iphoto

Can anyone tell me why I can't import an .mov file into imovie from iphoto. The help manual says I should be able to but. when I try, the .mov files on the import window are greyed out and not selectable. I thought imovie played this type of file.

MOV files are compatible with iMovie '08 if, and only if, both the audio and video compression formats are "edit" compatible with iMovie '08 and the MOV file container does not contain incompatible extraneous tracks (e.g. a "Tween" track). Kodak, for instance, stores its video clips as MPEG-4 video (compatible with iMovie '08) and µ-Law 2:1 compressed audio (which is not). In this case, all you would need to do would be to convert the µ-Law compressed audio to a compatible compression format like AAC (MPEG-4 audio). Another example would be a slideshow made in iPhoto. In this case a "Tween" track is used to transition between slides but is never removed once the transition is applied and results are re-saved in the MOV container. If you delete or strip out this track, the file then becomes compatible with iMovie '08.
