Can't import Quick time  into FCE

I converted some images from I photo into a QT movie but I'm unable to import into FCE. I'm using a G5 with OS 10.4.8, FCE 3.5.1, QT 7.1.3, and IPhoto 6.0.5.
Everytime I attempt to import I get this message....
file error: 1file(s) recognized, 0 access 1 unkown
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

1. Quicktime is a generic wrapper for a number of CODECs (Compression/decompression formats). What format is your file?
2. Hard drives can be formatted a number of ways. If they are set up for MS-DOS, they will have problems. To check the format of the drive, right click on the drive icon on the decktop and select 'get info'. The format should say 'mac os extended'. If it doesn't, it's time to erase and reformat the drive using 'disk utility'.

  • I can't import Quicktime movies into FCE 4?

    Hi, I'm trying to import an eight second Quicktime movie (that I made in the new Motion 5) into Final Cut Express 4. When I try to import it, a message pops up saying "Error: Unknown File." Is there anything I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

    FCE works with two types of QuickTime codecs: DV and AIC.  When you exported the file from Motion 5, which of those two did you use?

  • How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done?

    How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC. 

    No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either.  It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected.  VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB.  All of which cannot be opened or selected.
    Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC.  Is that the same?  Thank you for your time and response.

  • Can't import audio CD into iTunes with Vista

    I can't import audio CDs into iTunes with my new Dell 531 Vista computer. The songs seem to import, but only small (~50K) files are created, which don't play. Also, I cant play audio CDs using iTunes. CDs do play using Windows Media Player. The DVD/CD drive seems to work fine in all other applications.

    JohnAndKel,
    That's odd because the CD reading test that the diagnostics runs didn't report an error. What happens if you select a song from the CD in iTunes and play directly from CD?
    (Just a note, the filter trick doesn't do anything for CD import, just CD burn. iTunes doesn't use the Gear drivers for reading the CD.)

  • Can't import some MP3s into Centrale

    $Can't import some MP3s into Centrale?I've been using Centrale with my X-Fi for a couple of years and have managed to tag and import 000s of mp3s wothout problem. I recently downloaded 2 series of podcasts from Absoluteradio and despite all attempts, can't import them.
    I've double checked the tags - no problem. I can drag the podcasts into Centrale and transfer them directly onto the X-Fi and they play fine.
    Whenever I try importing them to the library, all that happens is that the message 'transferring to library' flashes up at the bottom of the Centrale window and the counter at the bottom right very quickly counts up from of 30, 2 of 30 etc.. But the?author, album or tracks never actually get imported.
    Any idea what could be different about these podcasts? I've checked properties to make sure they're not protected.
    If anyone would like to help me diagnose this, the podcasts are at www.absoluteradio.co.uk - examples are the Baddiel & Skinner and Dave Gorman series.
    Thanks
    David

    Try to play a few of them in another player to verify that they are good MP3s. If so, treat them with a tag cleanup program such as MP3 Validator, and then iTunes will usually accept them.

  • How to import .mpg files into FCE ?

    I have succesfully installed the MPEG StreamClip & flip4mac into my iMac. So now I can both play wmv files on my iMac as well as importing wmv files into iMovie & FCE.
    But now I have another problem:
    1) How do I play mpg files on my iMac ?
    2) How do I bring import mpg files into FCE ?
    Thank you.

    QTPro gives you many more capabilities than the free player, but I don't think you need it to do anything you've described. You DO need the MPEG-2 Playback component. I'd start there, then see if you need any of the options provided by QTPro.
    Hi there,
    I have purchased the MPEG-2 Playback component from the Apple Store.
    I can now convert the mpg files to mov using the MPEG StreamClip.
    However, I cannot playback the original mpg files using QuickTime Player. I can only playback the original mpg files if I click on the mpg file then goto more info & change open with MPEG StreamClip.
    But how do I open with QuickTime MPEG-2 playback ? I do not even know where the OS installed the MPEG-2 Playback component to ?
    Thanks

  • Cannot Import some iTunes into FCE - not a standard file?

    Trying to import some music into FCE from iTunes.
    Browsing window only will highlight certain music as "standard files" and only import those songs. Others are"greyed out" and when I switched the files list to "all files" and try to import then I get error message "1 files recognized 0 files access denied 1 unknown"

    Ahhhhhhh! It's starting to make sense now. If the CD was properly formatted as an "Audio CD", the tracks should be recorded at 44.1khz. You can use QuickTime Pro, iTunes, SoundTrack Pro (any several other apps) to convert the tracks from the CD to AIF, 48khz, 16 bit Stereo.
    If you use iTunes to do it, make sure you set the encoder to AIF (with the proper settings) in iTunes preferences before you begin.
    Note that AIF and AIFF are the same - you may see it listed either way, depending on the app.

  • Dreamweaver Can I import muse pages into Dreamweaver and "up grade" them

    Dreamweaver Can I import muse pages into Dreamweaver and "up grade" them
    Muse is terrific for basic pages, but forms, and scripts require more capability
    Also is there anyone watching this who does freelance work on web design?

    13:46:44
    Thanks Murray
    Yes I have looked at the Muse code and also looked at it in a plain html editor, (Been using Arachnophilia for about 15 years)
    and the code is a mess.
    You are dead right. I figured I would start with Muse to get some of the concepts sorted out, and that has worked, but I know I will need to use DW for my main site
    CanLaw has about 1500 pages all done in html with tables….
    time to play catch up
    Ton of work, but I have a masochistic bent anyway
    But in the long run life will be simpler if I make the effort now.

  • How many times can I download Quick Time Pro once I purchased it?

    Last September I purched my update to Quick Time Pro. Now I bought a new Computer and re-formatted the old one, not being able to copy Quick Time Pro from the old to the new computer. Therefore I wanted to download again Quick Time Pro: In the settings window I introduced my program key and then "accepted". It said "Quick Time pro" below the registration line; however, the "apply" buttom was not operative. I checked and my Quick Time version was still "Quick Time 7", not Pro. My question is: how many times can I download Quick Time Pro once I purched it? If I can download it more often than once, how do I proceed? Thank you for your help.

    I started this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2454706&tstart=0
    but I'm afraid it's so involved that thus far, nobody has "touched" it.
    However, PART of my problem is similar to THIS person's.
    My problem is that I have QT on two different drives in one computer; the one I paid for [QT Pro?] and one I got for free; QT7. I fear the free QT7 might have "interfered" with my "Pro".
    So, taking your advice above, looking in the "Help" "About" menu, I find that BOTH of mine another "offer" above the word "About"; they suggest that I "Purchase QT Pro"...... so now, if BOTH of my QT's say THAT, then may I conclude that I do NOT have the Pro version? I'm meaning to say that if I already HAVE the Pro, they wouldn't suggest that I go and "Buy QT Pro".... right? Is this a safe conclusion? for ya'll that HAVE the Pro, and KNOW it, does it suggest to you that you could go and "purchase QT Pro"?
    Thanks,
    LarryR : )

  • Can you import more pictures into a photo book that is already in work?

    Can you import more pictures into a photo book that is already in work? I have already spent many hours trying to create a photo album but came across more pictures to choose from. However, I don't know how to get these new pictures into the "list" of potential photos for the book in progress. I can't stand the thought of having to start over by selecting the 2000 photos plus these new ones and starting all over again!?!

    I have found more pictures that I want to include. They are, say, in a folder on my desktop. I can't simply pull a picture (or the folder) from the desktop and insert it into the album or the list of potential pictures across the top.
    to import into an existing book (which is just a special kind of album) simply drag the photos from their source (the desktop in your example) to the book in the source pane on the left (not to the book in the library window but the book icon in the source pane
    Likewise to use photos from your iPhoto library just drag them from the library to the book
    I also tried imported the pictures, from the desktop folder, into iphoto, creating new event. I don't think there is a way of accessing that new event from the album in work/progress.
    Likewise to use photos from your iPhoto library just drag them from the library to the book in the source pane on the left
    I also tried merging the new "event" into an existing event that I had selected for the album. That doesn't work either???
    That is correct - there is no connection between the source of the book and the book - the book stands alone and you add direct to it in the source pane exactly as you would add to any other album

    Hello.  I have AV player hd.  When I touch and hold the Quicktime icon that is in a received mail message, a prompt comes up "Open in AVPlayerHD".  I click on that and a black screen opens up with the following on it:
    1--A red line at the top with a short white slider button on the right hand side.  There is a time listed at each end of the red line that says 00:00
    2--On the left hand side of the screen, near the middle, there are 4 icons, a colored 'x', a dialogue icon, a circular arrow and an 'i' in a circle.
    3--On the right hand side there is a + and a - sign with '1.00x' in the middle of the two.
    4--At the bottom of the black screen is a play icon plus forward and fast forward icons.
    When I press the play icon it changes to a stop icon.
    So, even though I have AV player I cannot play this Quicktime slideshow.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

  • Can't import any images into lightroom 5

    Working away in my studio and suddenly I can't import any images into lightroom 5 (version5.5) for macbook pro os x 10.9.5

    Thank you for your response,
    ...my complete goofiness.
    I somehow managed to change my destination folder in Lightroom when importing images and could not copy to the "location" (or as the right panel indicates, the "destination").
    So adjusted my destination folder and am back to importing as usual.
