How do I manually import a .mov file and add it to my podcast library?

Hi all,
I'm a fan of "theshow" by zefrank and when I finally discovered it was available via iTunes, I subscribed. However, iTunes does not pick up all the early episodes.
I found that I could download them onto my desktop as .mov files - but I can't seem to get them into my Podcasts library - only the Movies library.
Any advice?
TIA.

On the same note, I have some podcasts that are listed in iTunes (and exist in the ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Podcasts folder) but will not play. I can play them via the Finder though.
Is there any way to tell iTunes where the files are? (I thought we used to be able to do this in previous versions.)

  • How do I manually delete temporary internet files, and if I delete them on IE are they also deleted onFirefox?

    I know how to delete cookies on firefox but have not figured out how to delete temporary internet files. I can do it on IE, does that do the job or do I have to delete TIF's on firefox also?

    The equivalent of temporary internet files on Firefox is the cache. For details of how to clear it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+clear+the+cache
    Clearing TIFs in IE will not clear the cache in Firefox.

  • I can't import the .MOV file .how to i use it??

    i can't import the .MOV file .how to i use it??

    You might need to tell us a bit more about your problem.  Do you mean you can't import a video file into Premiere, or your computer is having trouble playing Quicktime files?

  • Does anybody know if there is a way to import 2 movie files in logic....

    Does anybody know if there is a way to import 2 movie files in logic....I am getting 2 files in an hour and i need to figure out how 2 combine 2 mov. files into logic to put them together in dvd...i am doing a score.....thanx

    As far as I am aware no the only work around is that you create 2 quick time movies import them into one session of imovie then export as a quick time file which yu would then import into Logic hope this helps

    Both the AVI and the MOV file extensions refer to the file container and not the compressed data the file contains. Both are generic file containers in that each may contain any valid combination of audio and/or video data that is compatible with the codec component configuration of the system on which the file was created. On the other hand, whether a file is playback compatible, conversion compatible, and/or edit compatible depends on the data actually contained in the file container. So, you are basically dealing with two separate issues here—the container and what is inside it.
    Basically, if you want to make your files ediit compatible with iMovie, you must change your file container to one that is acceptable to iMovie and convert the data to edit compatible audio and/or video compression formats as may be necessary. The best approach is to determine what codecs were actually used to create the original AVI files and add them to your system if possible. In most cases a codec package like Perian can be added to your system's codec component configuration to may the AVI file playable. Once they are playable, in the QT 7 app then they can be chnged or converted to file types and compression formats that can be edited in iMovie. (While Perian handles most codecs commonly used to create AVI files, it does not handle all possibilities and, while the Perian codec package still works under cureent Mac OS versions, its development group has decided to drop further development/support of the package.)
    Background: AVI is a file container originally developed by Microsoft back in 1992 but for which official support was discontinued about 11 years. Despite its limitations, Windows users still tend to use this file based on its open source ease of use and generic nature, thus, making its use so popular that most users are unwilling to switch to more modern but less generic file types. Since some AVI legacy compression formats have never been transcoded for the Mac or use beyond OS 9 or OS X PPC platforms, it is often important to know what specific compression formats are contained in the AVI file to know which codecs to add to your system and which not to add in order to avoid possible codec conflicts.
    You can use many different converters to convert AVI files to iMovie edit compatible files. Most third-party apps contain their own buit-in codecs which do not relay on the Mac codec component configuration. Free ones, like HandBrake, usually have limited conversion capabilities while those that have more varied outputs are usually commercial in nature and will cost you additional cash. QT 7 Pro or the free MPEG Streamclip app allow you to access you own system's component configuration and use any available codec component like DV, AIC, MPEG-4, H.264, Photo JPEG, etc.—all of which are iMovie compatible for editing purposes—but only after making the AVI file QT 7 player compatible.
    In order to determine what compression formats wewre used in your AVI files you can
    1) Try checking the Finder "Info" window,
    2) Use the "Inspector", "Media Info", or "Properties" window of any player app that will open the file, or
    3) Use a general media utility app like "MediaInfo" to read the file characteristics.

  • I need to import my .mov files to CS6 but the program tells me the files are unsupported. Help!!

    I am working on a really important project and am trying to import my .mov files however, the program tells me the files are unsupported by CS6. How can I convert these files to something usable? Am I trying to import them incorrectly? Please help!

    Welcome to the forum.
    What CODEC is inside those MOV files?
    What OS are you on?
    If Windows, do you have Apple's QT Pro (US $39 upgrade/unlock)? If so, then you can use it to Export to several formats/CODEC's, that PrPro can use.
    Good luck,

  • When i import H264 .mov files the audio slows down. MAC

    I have a mac, running Mavericks OSX and i'm using Premiere CC.
    When I import a .mov file with h264 encoding the audio plays back very slowly.
    I know that Premiere can't handle h264 in an avi wrapper or so it has been said in old forums, but these are .mov files.  How has this been an issue since CS 3 and it hasn't been fixed?
    I would expect an import setting could be changed to fix this but i can't seem to find any import settings.
    other than transcode everything again, is there an easy fix for this?
    Thank you for your help.

    Are these files MPEG compressed files? iMovie can not deal with the multiplexed audio of those files. For suggestions on how to get them right start here...

    And if your files are not MPEGs, some of the suggestions on that page may still do what you need done.

  • I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

    I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

    Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
    Keep copies of the originals.
    Another option might be to try to install Perian.  Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

  • When i import a movie file into iMovie,it somehow reverts to the shortened file of the same name that i previously had used

    I'm trying to import a movie file into imovie that I know is 3hr16mins long but when it's finished importing,all I have in the programme is the heavily edited 51mins that i used in a previous project (using the same file),5 years ago. How can I stop iMovie from reverting back or could the much longer file be there and I have incorrect settings so I can't see it all?

  • After I import a movie file from the camera memory card, Imovie 10.0.1 acts as if the memory card is empty though I know it isn't.... I can't import that file to iMovie again.. is that the way it worksnow?  Thank you, Filippo

    On IMac 10.9  After I import a movie file from the camera memory card to Imovie 10.0.1 it acts as if the memory card is empty though I know it isn't.... I can't import that file to iMovie again.. is that the way it works now?  Anyone know?  Thanks, Filippo

    I would like to know this too. I imported a lot of files, then Imovie crashed. I went back in and they are not in imovie at all.
    I reconnected the camcorder to import again and though they are still on the camcorder, I no longer see them in the available list of files to import. I'm sure there is some sort of simple setting somewhere that reveals all files even if it thinks they are imported.
    Thanks

  • How can I sav an emailed .mov file to my iPad?

    How can I sav an emailed .mov file to my iPad?

    Yes there is, if you hold down the attachment widget in the email once the video is downloaded, it will give you a series of options to save it to, including camera roll. 
    Hope this solves your question.

  • How can I make my AVCHD mov. files work in premier pro?

    I used Panasonic HDC-SD60 for a short film for work.  This has over about 40 clips with around 3 hours of footage However when I import the .mov files from the media browser the audio seems fine but the footage is in a sort of slow mo, and out of sync. I want to edit and do post-production using adobe premier pro, and after effects. However the footage seems to be working in final cut X. There is no lag with playback on quicktime either. What's making this happen? I've read about variable frame rates, it's seems most common in iPhones and tablets? Is that something that the panasonic do as well? Is there a fix? Or should I jump ship and make do with a slightly more limited features of Final Cut?

    That does not specifically say Variable FRAME Rate, so I don't know a cure... but, see below

  • Just upgraded to Lion and can no longer import any .mov files ("file not supported") to 3.1.3.  Also can no longer view any .mov or .mp4 files already in library.

    Have been using Aperture 3.1.3 with no problems.  Importing from a Nikon D80 (RAW & JPEG), Casio (.MOV) and Flip (.mp4).  Could import and view all videos without issue prior to Lion upgrade.  After Lion installation, can no longer import .mov files (get "file not supported" error) or even view any .mov or .mp4 files currently in library (even though thumbnail is present).  Can watch the .mov files directly on my camera using Quicktime in Finder but can't even drag & drop that file into Aperture.  Anybody else having similar problems?

    Still no resolution and Geniuses at store could not assist.  Unfortunately, it looks like not all the applications were ready to support the Lion operating system.  We could not import any .mov files, could no longer view any .mov files already in my Aperture library and could not email any .mov files.  Totally frustrated.  Use Aperture almost daily and can't lose the video functionality.  Was also running dog-slow.  Constantly looking at the spinning wheel.  Geniuses suggested that I wipe out hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard.  Had full backup on external drive with Time Machine. 
    Not an easy process though...had to reinstall several times (at 5 hours each time) because I continued to have issues.  Finally figured out that I needed to delete every backup file from Time Machine on external drive from the date I installed Lion because some of the hidden files were still migrating back to Snow Leopard.
    I had to:
    1. Delete all time machine backup files from date/time of Lion installation forward
    2. Do "clean" installation of Snow Leopard (wiped hard drive using disk utility and booted with Snow Leopard disc)
    3. Chose option to reinstall from backup off Time Machine which eventually got me back to Snow Leopard desktop
    4. Deleted Aperture program and reinstalled (I had to install Aperture 2 and then install Aperture 3 upgrade.
    5. Reinstalled iLife apps
    5. Applied all Apple updates available (again this took a few hours because there were several updates from Snow Leopard's original release plus Aperture 3 and other application updates)
    Still doing some tweaking on some of my other apps but got everything back to where I originally was.  Now plan to wait on a few version updates from Lion before reinstalling.
    I am one of Apple's biggest fans, but was very disappointed in the fact that I lost functionality in one of their own pieces of software (which I use the most!)  by installing Lion.
