How can I open a movie in CS5?

I'm trying to make an animated gif. 
I've tried several ways, but with no results. 
If I drag the .mov file to the CS5 app, I get the message:  "Could not complete your request because Photoshopdoes not recognize this type of file."
If I try to open from CS5, it does not "see" it as a readable file it can open.
If I try to open from Bridge, it does not list CS5 as an app that will open it.
Using 10.7.4, 2x2.66 GHz 6-core Intel Xeon, with 27GB of DDR3.
Repaired permissions prior to all this.
Any ideas out there?

I discovered that I had to have CS5 open in 32 bit, instead of 64 bit.  Only then would it open the file, and only by importing it this way:  Import>Video Frames to Layers...    It seems as thought Adobe has changed some things, as it used to be possible to open the file directly by loading it into PS.  Also, the Animation window no longer has the "Timeline" tab.  Not sure what that change was about, but it would be nice to have it.  Regardless, I was able to open the file and get to work.  Finally.  Whew!

  • 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

  • How can I open a Movie Maker video on iMovie?

    I'm trying to transfer a movie maker to the imovie? is it possible? how? thanks(:

    The 2 options for saving a video file from Movie Maker are either DV-AVI or WMV. To create a Mac-compatible video file, open the MSWMM file in Windows Movie Maker, save the movie at the highest quality setting WMV or preferably as a DV-AVI format file. Import this finished AVI or WMV file into iMovie or other Mac video editing application.
    After the MSWMM file saving as AVI or WMV file in our PC, you can play the WMV/AVI files on your PC and convert them to another video format or burn to DV

    My movie is avi format and I want to be able to play in Itune. What I can do? Very new to Apple.

    You need to convert the AVI file to MP4.  Here is just one of the many converters available (via Google) http://www.divx.com/en/software/divx-plus/oca/mp4-converter?gclid=CJnqnpaF37gCFc fJtAod8RUAeg

  • How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

    How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

    Andy,
    In the simple and short form, what happens with the ACR (Adobe Camera RAW) module is that it gets updated with regularity, to accommodate the camera mfgr's. changes for their newer models. That ACR works within the host program, such as Ps, PsElements, Lightroom, etc.. At a point, Adobe ceases to support older host program versions. When that happens, the user has a few options:
    Upgrade the host program version
    Use another host program, such as PsElements or Lightroom
    Use the free DNG converter, per Curt's suggestion. That is not host program dependent
    Glad that the DNG Converter works for you.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • 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.

  • How can I get a .MOV video to open?

    A friend of mine has send me a 15-second-long .MOV video file, but I can't open it in QuickTime 10 or QuickTime 7. VLC, Perian, Flip4Mac, and RealPlayer are all duds. The video codecs are H.264 and Linear PCM. I have QuickTime Player 7 in addition to the latest version of QuickTime Player 10. When I try to open the file, QuickTime 10 says "QuickTime Player can't open "MVI_9730.MOV". To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More." I clicked that, but it only told me that QuickTime 7 might work. So, I opened it in QuickTime 7, and the application just freezes while saying "Searching for movie data in file "MVI_9730.MOV".". I had to force quit the application because it stopped responding. Any suggestions?

    The file, according to the Finder info window, is about 71 kb in size. The resolution is 1280x720, and, as I previously stated, the video is 15 seconds in length, so the size is somewhat unbelievable. As you say, it sounds like it could be a reference file. How can I tell her to get to the original file? Did she maybe pull it from her camera wrongly? Could she have maybe gotten it out of iPhoto or some other photo library program incorrectly? I'll ask her about the system she's on and what software she's using, maybe that would help with your diagnosis of this could-be "reference file".
    The reason I asked for the combined total data rate was to calculate the "expected" reasonable size of the 15 second file and compare that to the actual size of the file according to the Finder. This will normally confirm whether or not the files is a "reference" file even when th file resource references cannot be accessed in the "Inspector" or "Properties" window. As to how a "reference" file could have been created, there are several possibilities. QT 7 Pro or the MakeReference application can used to deliberately create "reference" files. Editing apps (especially those used on IOS devices) frequently do their editing using reference files to conserve storage space on such devices.
    Edit: Also, the audio data rate is impossible to find from the QuickTime 7 info window. When I try opening the file in QT7, the program says "Searching for movie data in file "MVI_9730.MOV"." However, as a development, the program finally began responding and asked me to search for the file, but I wasn't allowed to link it to the original video, so it said something about how it was missing "required data" to play the video file. Simply put, the file won't open in QT7. In QT10, access to the file is limited, because when I click "OK", the file closes, leaving the program blank and idle with nothing open.
    This is where a media information utility app really comes in handy. For instance, another user had a similar problem recently. In his case the video files were recorded on an iPhone 4 and edited with an app called ProCamera 3.5.5 which created reference files. While the reference files would not open in QT 7, the MediaInfo app was able to provide the following information:
    And, based on this information, it was relatively easy to calculate that the 25 KB reference file was supposed to be resourced to a standalone file on the order of 3,000 times the size of the reference file. Further, the reference file contained the name of the editing application that actually created the reference file. As to the delay in opening your reference file in QT 7, that was due to an automatic attempt by the media player to search your system for the missing standalone file and, when it could not be found, wanted you to locate the file manually if still available elsewhere.

    How  can I see the previews of my D610 in bridge cs5 and how can I open them in my CC photoshop?

    Nah. Raw support is version specific and that extends to Bridge as well. Older versions simply won't handle new cameras. If this is important to you, you will have to use Bridge CC.

  • HELP! How can I open illustrator cs1 files in cs5

    I updated my old cs package to cs5 and now when I try to open those old files it says that can´t open the illustrator, also old acrobat files seems to be corrupted in my computers opinion. Can you please help me how can I open those? Thank you so much in advance

    You say that it says "can't open the Illustrator". Does that mean the application won't start?
    Will the application start without double-clicking a document?
    How are you trying to open the files (double-clicking the file, dragging the file over the application icon, using the application file-open menu)?

  • How can I open a PDF into an iBooks folder other than PDF folder?

    How can I open a PDF directly into a folder in iBooks other than the PDF folder?  I have different folders made and am currently having to open into the PDF folder and then move to the correct folder. Can I open directly into the needed folder? 

    No, I don't think so. The pdf isn't capable of knowing which folder you would like it to open in – all it knows is that it is a pdf. It's up to you to put it in the appropariate folder.

  • How can i open my iBook on my Mac, not just on my iPhone

    Hi,
    how can i open my iBook on my Mac, not just on my iPhone?  I ask this questions in hopes that I can eventually find a way to have the iPhone read a non "Enhanced" iBook to me.
    I used the Accessibility reader for a brief time but it's very persinickety.  Move the phone a tiny bit and it threw me out from page 70 and back to page 48.  Changing pages when you are in Accessibility is excruciating. Now, I cannot get back there at all.
    I downloaded 2 apps that claim they can read to me but the closest I can get in the instructions says I need to open the iBook from my Mac computer with my iPhone connected and then I will be able to open the iBook in the app called "Read text to me".  Only when I go to open the book on my Mac it says "This book can’t be viewed using this computer. You can view this book using iBooks on your iOS device."
    Thank god, I only have a brain tumor and am not yet completely blind.
    I've been to the Apple store twice, checked out a youtube page with all it's comments and I am still nowhere, over the course of a week.
    Can anybody help me?
    thank you,
    Ellen

    You cannot.
    Ibooks are only for iphone/ipod touch/ipad
    So, there are no third party readers/emulators in Mac OS X and Windows to read them from iTunes? I don't even own an iOS device. I just redeemed Action Comics' Superman #1 from Starbucks and iTunes.
    This one?
    Where the REQUIREMENTS spell out that an iOS device is needed to read it?

  • How can I get a movie that I created in IDVD to load in ITunes and stream to Apple TV?

    How can I get a movie that I created in IDVD to load in ITunes and stream to Apple TV?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't, but you have a few alternatives.
    Best option: If you made the movie on the DVD in iMovie (or even another editing application) and still have the project, go back to the project and export it for Apple TV (using the Apple TV preset)
    Next best option: If you still have the original movie that you put on the DVD, open it in QuickTime and export it for Apple TV (using the Apple TV preset)
    Worst option: Use something like Mpegstreamclip (Quicktime Mpeg2 playback component required) to convert the DVD to h264.
