Can you get Webcam videos from Windows into iMovie on a Mac?

I had a lot of videos on my old HP laptop's webcam and i wanted to know if i could edit them in iMovie because when i try importing none of them can be imported. If you know how i can fix this reply.

Jade did you get this worked out? My internal hardrive crashed so I lost all of itunes. But I have all my music copied on an external HD.

Can't get movies/pics from iPhoto into iMovie

Hello, I have read a lot of other threads but haven't yet found this answer. I am new to Mac as of 1/09 and just started using iMovie one year later (this month). I go back and forth between a Sony Cyber-shot DCS-W230 and a Sanyo VPC-TH1. Both do stills as well as video. I have a lot both on iPhoto as well as Picasa from the past year. Only one movie actually went into my iMovie library and a few pics. Can anyone tell me why this is? I haven't (knowingly) changed any settings. I can view them in (iPhoto and Picasa) including watching the movies. Why won't they import into iMovie? I tried using Streamline but it's very confusing and the one 25 minute movie I got to convert took hours and didn't even line up with the audio so that was a waste. If they weren't compatible with iMac wouldn't it just not work at all instead of some? I've spent hours experimenting and reading instructions, forums, I've called Apple support, etc. and I'm so frustrated because I still don't have an answer. If someone could help me resolve this I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Importing my own little movies from my SD550, I used to see them in .MOV format. Now I see them as .AVI files and QuickTime cannot open them anymore. As a matter of fact, *nothing* can open these files anymore, and I have tried Flip4Mac, DivXPlayer,MoviePod, iMovieHD and Windows Media for Mac. Guess what: the only way I can open them is with iMovie 7.0.1.
So I suspect something in the Mac core is transforming my imports into files that are difficult to read. QuickTime perhaps?

I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this?

I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this? I even tried deleting iMovie, bought a new copy and installed it, but the folder "iPhoto Videos" is still there and I can't get new clips loaded to iMovie, especially where I want them. Please help.

The iPhoto Videos do occasionally have problems. I've seen a lot of people write messages to this Discussion group describing similar problems. The only thing that seems to get around this problem is to pull the video clips out of iPhoto then import them directly into iMovie. Once the troubles with iPhoto Videos starts, I haven't yet seen anyone write back with something that they did to fix it.
The most difficult part of doing this is the movies in iPhoto might be a little difficult to track down. But you can create a smart alum that does that for you. Go to iPhoto > File Menu > New Smart Album:
Set the first pulldown menu to keyword, second to contains, then in the last box type Movie with a capital 'M'. Then click OK. This smart album more or less does as search of the whole iPhoto Library and only displays items that match your search tearm of "Movie" exactly. In that smart album then you can find the original Movies you want to move out of iPhoto and into iMovie, <CTRL> click on the Movie clip, then choose Reveal in Finder. That will jump you out of iPhoto temporarily and into the iPhoto Library folder. From there you can move that movie file to the desktop. Move all the clips you want, once they're all collected up go to iMovie and go to the File Menu > Import Files. Then point it to the desktop where you moved your video clips.
This will put all those videos into an Event folder in iMovie and bypass iPhoto Videos altogether.

Can you get values back from a stored procedure via OUTPUT parameters?

Can you get values back from calling a stored procedure via OUTPUT parameters/variables? I call the SP via a SQL statement from a script either in a WF or DF.
I thought I read some reference that DI could not get the values from OUTPUT parameters but I could not find it again (don't know if it is in any of the documentation or referred to in a forum.
I did try a couple of tests but it did not reutrn any values via OUTPUT. But before I give up I thought I'd see if you could and maybe I needed to change something.

This isn't exactly an answer to your question, but I'll point out that, given that you're resorting to a SQL script in the first place, there's no reason you can't also turn the output parameters into a regular result or record set. (The following uses T-SQL, although I think it's pretty generic.)
declare @param1 int, param2 varchar(100), @return int;
exec @return = proc @param1 = @param1 output, @param2 = @param2 output;
select @param1 as param1, @param2 as param2;
That is, to get from output parameters to a "regular" output from the SQL script isn't much of a leap...

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
Thanks!

It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

How can you get 2 videos to play simutenously together?

How can you get 2 videos to play simutenously together so both are playing side by side on screen at the same time?

Welcome to the forum.
As Steve observes, what you are talking about is called "PiP," or Picture in Picture.
He has given you the basics of creating a "split-screen" PiP, and that should be exactly what you wish to do.
For more detail, plus more ways to do PiP, I strongly recommend his book, Cool Tricks & Hot Tips for Adobe Premiere Elements 11, from Muvipix. He has an entire chapter (Chapter 10) on PiP, and many of its uses, with detailed instructions on the settings to accomplish it. Just that one chapter is worth the price of the book.
Good luck, and happy editing,

My 1st ipod was lost. My library is on a Dell with Windows. I registered my new ipod to a Mac. How can I get my library from Windows onto my new Ipod?

My 1st ipod was lost. My library is on a Dell with Windows. I registered my new ipod to a Mac. How can I get my library from Windows onto my new Ipod?

Thank you for your help. I am still having trouble. As you can tell, I am not technologically advanced AT ALL. My music is all showing up in the library but when I go to file in the top left corner, Sync is greyed out and I cannot select it. I'm gonna continue to try this. It's been a long time since I had my 1st ipod and things have changed so much I will probably need to research this stuff. Thanks again for your help.

Can you receive live video from a tv web site on a ipad

Can you receive live video from a tv web site on your iPad

If the website you're viewing has HTML5 streaming, or an iPad-specific app, then yes. If the website uses Flash or Java or any "plug-in" technology, then no.

Is there a way to put a video from facebook into imovie?

Is there a way to put a video from facebook into imovie? The facebook video is on my friends wall. Draging it does not seem to work.

You won't be able to drag and drop it, I think the workaround would be to try and 're-record' it using QuickTime. There's a screen recording ability that will record your hold desktop. My suggestion is to launch QuickTime. Under File Menu > Screen Recording. Get that all setup and ready to hit the red record button. Open Facebook. Playback full screen if possible, then pause it. Start the screen recording, then play the Facebook video. By default, the video will be saved into your Home folder>Movies folder. Open iMovie, go to File Menu > Import > Movies... and then navigate your way to your Movies folder and import that clip into an iMovie Event.

I can't find the videos from my Sony camera on my Mac Book Pro

I can't locate the videos from my Sony camera on my Mac Book Pro. Do I need additional software?

How & where did you search? I gather the videos are no longer in the cam? Where do you have the videos go when transferring from your cam?
Download WhatSize and/or OmniDiskSweeper to see if you can "see" the videos.

Can not get a video from my PC into iTunes.

I can't seem to get my video from my PC into iTunes, so I can play them on my iPad. I've tried adding from the library....nothing. I've tried dragging and dropping into iTunes directly from the folder....nothing. Am I over looking something? Please help.

I have an iPad 1 and when I wanted to put a couple of movies on my iPad I found that it would not import them until I reformatted the video from the .AVI they were in to the apple MP4 format and afterward iTunes imported them and I ran the Sync to iPad function and they went right on without any problems.
Hope this helps as Apple doesn't seem to want or care about supporting the iPad 1's. wouldn't have spent the money then if I would have know this would happen since my iPad is not quite 2 years old. I have a 5 year old Dell laptop and they still give total support for it and I paid much less for it !
Good luck.

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.
