Having trouble importing videos from phone to mac. Please help?

I was trying to transfer video from my iphone to my Mac and nothing is happening. When i try to quit iphoto i get the message

  • I'm having trouble importing video from my panasonic hdc-tm900 into iPhoto.

    it used to work fine (at 1080p/60) and when i plug it in to the computer it shows the older videos i have already downloaded, but not the new videos. they are all 1080/60. I'm running a new macbook pro with mavericks. i believe this is the first batch i tried to download with mavericks... i can only load the videos in one bunch ono the desktop and open them with quicktime, but can't export or import to iPhoto. curious!

    What version of iPhoto do you have?
    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Try to import some videos from the camera and the Desktop to test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

  • I'm having trouble downloading video from my Panasonic HDC/TM900

    I'm having trouble downloading video from my Panasonic HDC/TM900. It seems it is designed to work with PC's.
    Can anyone help with this?

    If you have not done so already, I recommend updating Final Cut Pro X to 10.0.5.
    And if that doesn't work, download the following applicaton (FREE) and use it to convert your footage to Apple ProRes, or another compatible video coded/format...
    Free MTS M2TS Converter

    Also, I recommend installing the PERIAN QuickTime extension (FREE) on your computer...

    Good day!
    What does this have to do with Photoshop?
    Wouldn’t the question better be asked on a Macintosh Forum?

  • I'm having trouble importing pictures from the internet....when I drag the picture to the icon, it gives me the option to import all duplicates. Even when I click "NO", it STILL imports every picture I have imported AGAIN, including the new one! WHY??

    Mostly because you are not using any capital letters or paragraph returns and your post is difficult to read.

  • Having trouble importing photos from Panasonic Lumix cameras. No error message 1 just has spinning ball, other can import using menu but ends with spinning ball. using 9.1.5 Mac OSX10.6.8. Have to restart to access iphoto

    Hi I am trying to import photos into iPhoto using two Panasonic cameras both Lumix (DMC TZ3 and DMC FZ30). Worked in the past no problem, I upgrade system when prompted and am running Mac OSX 10.6.8 with iPhoto 9.1.5.  When I attach cable from camera to Mac with the DMC TZ3 I get the spinning ball and nothing else and have to force quite and restart to access iphoto again without the spinning ball, with the DMC FZ30, when I plus in the cable I get an icon on the desktop and can go into iphoto and import the photos that way.  When the photos have been imported I get the spinning ball again and have to restart the Mac to access iphoto without the spinning ball.  Photos do import though.
    Can anyone help, a really stupid, non-techie person who has no idea what she is doing, please?
    Thank you

    Try use a different cable.

  • Airdrop video from phone to mac

    How do I airdrop a video from the iphone to the mac?

    I actually came here from that page. My iPhone (6+) and Mac (15" Retina 2013) are both on the same WiFi network, both have blutooth turned on... my phone has AirDrop turned on (at my home, I switched it from Contacts to EVERYBODY to eliminate that problem).
    My Mac actually "sees" my iPhone - but clicking the iPhone icon in the Finder/AirDrop window does nothing. On my iPhone, I see the AirDrop section in iPhoto - where the video I want to copy over is - but the AirDrop section shows no devices. This is in iPhoto, selecting the movie, selecting the SHARE icon, then looking at options. I can export to YouTube, Facebook, etc., but AirDrop is non-functional. I thought there was a trick I may be missing... I even tried manually "pairing" my iPhone in my Mac (OSX 10.10 - latest build).

  • Having trouble importing video files

    hi, look Im kind of new on this program so I have been importing video files to the project but when I watch them they appear without sound. If I open them in quicktime or any other player they do have sound but its like final cut does not recognize the sound on them. Do anyone know about this? it happens in different types of video files, even when I open the "item property" thing and I look at the format there is a list there but sound issues do not appaer. please let me know if you know something.

    Importing from...where? What format are these files? FCP doesn't work with just any QT file...they have to be editable codecs. Not all QT codecs are editable.

  • Importing Video from HV20 to MAC OS 10.8.3

    When attempting to import video and/or download software updates to my computer from the Canon website, I cannot get my computer to detect the camcorder.  It is connected with a USB cable and the camcorder is ON PLAY.  I have tried three different USB cables with the same result.  Any ideas?

    Hi Joanz,
    To transfer movies, your camcorder requires a firewire with a Special 4 pin connector (IEEE 1394 compliant) for the camcorder and a 4-pin or 6-pin connector to match the firewire port on your computer.  Please note:  A firewire to USB connector will not work.
    If your computer lacks a firewire port, you may want to check with your computer manufacturer regarding the availability of a firewire expansion for your computer.

  • Having trouble "getting" video from a DVD.

    When trying to "get" video from a DVD I have recorded using a Magnavox DVD recorder, Premier Elements 4 will only import a portion of the video. The entire recorded video is viewable if I watch the DVD on a player so I know it is all there. This is only happening with video recorded on this one particular recorder. It is also only happening with Premier Elements 4. We also use Final Cut Pro and it works fine with DVD's from this recorder.
    If anyone has any answers please let me know.
    Thanks!!!!

    VCR/DVD burners can produce some mixed quality video files, Richard, particularly if they're recorded to a low quality disc (like Memorex).
    The wisest move would be to convert those DVD files to DV-AVIs using a program like MPEG Streamclip or VirtualDubMOD (both free), per the FAQs at the top of this forum.

    DV-AVIs are the ideal format for editing on a PC.

  • Trouble with Videos on my iPod. Please Help?

    Hello,
    I am hoping someone out there can help me. I have what I thought was simply called an iPod Video, but I guess it now refereed to as a fifth generation iPod. When I first got it, I was excited to be able to watch videos on my iPod. When I tried to put videos on it, it told me my OS X was out of date. I had to buy OS X Tiger in order to put videos on it. That worked and I was happy. Now to advance my story to the present. I can no longer watch my videos on my iPod or even on my iTunes. When I try to sync the videos to the iPod, I get this message:
    “Some of the videos in your iTunes library, including the video (Video Title) were not copied to the iPod (iPod Name) because they cannot be played on this iPod.”
    That message makes no sense because it is an iPod video and I have watched those videos on it before. I only have five videos and all but one was downloaded from the iTunes Store. And like I said earlier, they will not even play in my iTunes window either anymore.
    Can someone Please Help Me?
    My Mac: PowerMac G4
    OS X: 10.4.10
    iTunes: 7.4.2 (4)
    iPod: 60gb 1.2.1

    Hello,
    Thank you for the reply. I had QuickTime 7.0.4 on my Mac and I just upgraded it to 7.2.0. That did the trick for allowing me to watch my videos on my computer through iTunes, but I still get the same annoying error message that will not allow me to put them on my iPod. What is really annoying is all these movies were on my iPod and then one day when I put in my iPod to sync my music, it took off the videos and gave me the above message.

  • I am having trouble with the jQuery tabs browser. Please help!!!!!!!!

    I inserted the jQuery tabs browser and it is not working properly. I was just testing it so I haven't changed some of the coding yet or the wording. The problem is that when I test it in live view it shows actual tabs but when I look it up on the remote server it shows the word tab and then has paragraphs under each word. I want the tabs. Not sure what to do. Anybody please help. I am getting very close to my launch date. Thank you ahead of time.

    I am having the same problem and have contacted Canon, they've answered me several times with things to try but nothing they've told me to try helps. It looks like they are going shrug, scratch their heads soon and  pass the buck to Microsoft or HP my comp make .
    I have a Windows 8.1 OS, 64 bit comp.

  • Having trouble with condenser microphone and Logic Pro. please help

    I purchased a condenser microphone that runs only with phantom power. I have an XLR cable from the mic into the phantom power interface and have an XLR to USB plugged into my computer, when i go to logic audio preferences it doesnt show that the microphone is even connected (ive checked input and output). Ive even tried it on other programs and i still get nothing. Please Help.

    I have an XLR cable from the mic into the phantom power interface
    What phantom interface is this, make and model.
    XLR to USB plugged into my computer
    What is this? Just a cable?
    What microphone is it?
    Trying to get an idea of your signal chain as, in your original post, your signal chain makes little sense. Do you have an audio interface or is that the phantom power interface you are referring to? A microphone isn't an interface and a mic, in itself, won't show up in Logic prefs (unless it was a USB mic, which it is not).
