How do I move mvi files from iPhoto into iMovie?

I am trying to create eventually an iDVD but want to put together several mvi files I took. I am doing it right in iphoto to allow me to import them.

Hi Margaret,
I'm not certain, but try this...
In finder, locate the video, then drag & drop it on iMovie's icon.

  • .mov files from iPhoto into iMovie... How?

    I have some video files (.mov) that I'd like to keep in iPhoto and also sync into my iPhone, but I'm not quite sure what the sequence should be. 
    I can get the .mov files into iPhoto, no problem, but can't figure out how to sync them into my iPhone.  I have "Sync videos" checked off in iTunes, but they stil w'ont transfer into iPhone. 
    How should I be doing this?

    AFAIK there is no way to share movies from iPhoto.
    Regards

  • How do I move AVI files from iPhoto to an AVI player app?

    I have transferred some files from an SD card on to my iPad. They're stored as AVI files in iPhoto but I can't get them to play. I've downloaded an app called Playable which can play AVI but don't know how to transfer the files in to the app.

    Are you able to play them? If not and the fact that the Show File gets you nowhere indicates that those video files are missing from the hard drive. Download Find Any File and search for one of the avi files by full name including extension.

  • How do I move my photos from iPhoto into Aperture so that I can delete my iPhoto libraries?

    My iPhoto library is taking up around 60GB of harddrive space but as I only use Aperture now, I want to get rid of the libraries without losing anything from Aperture

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    To move your iPhoto photos to Aperture, read > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5296 You just have to merge the iPhoto library once, because you only have one iPhoto library
    note that, if you are using iPhoto '11 and Aperture 3 updated to the most recent version, they use the same library. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5260

  • How do I copy my video files from iPhoto to iMovie. The two   hour wait to view all in iMovie puts the kibosh on my edit time.

    How do I copy my video files from iPhoto to iMovie? The two + hour wait for thumb nails and hour long wait looking for the right videos kills the time I have to edit.

    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    which is free, but you must also have the  Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    (unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
    http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
    which costs $25.
    For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
    Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
    If you are running Lion:
    From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
    The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
    To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
    The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

    I have elements 9 running on computer A. I now have elements 11 running on computer B. How do i move my files from computer A to B?

    Do a full backup using the organizer's backup command on computer A. Then restore that to computer B.
    EDIT It will probably go smoothest if you use some kind of removable drive for the backup location.

  • How do I move music files from the startup disc to iTunes in the other internal hard disk os 10.5.8?

    How do I move music files from the startup disc to iTunes in the other internal hard disk os 10.5.8?
    The music I want to move was in iTunes but is now just files. I had to reinstall a new iTunes and lost all my old music.
    Thank you!

    That article is about using your iPod as an external hard drive, to move files from one computer to another computer.  It is not related to your question.
    You can't use iTunes to move song files from iPod to computer, except for songs you purchased from the iTunes Store (and you can also re-download purchases).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can move song files from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your current computer, add them to that computer's iTunes library by dragging the files (or folder containing the files) to the iTunes window.  After confirming everything is there (and fixing the data issue you mentioned) you can sync the iPod.  You may want to do a Restore on the iPod, if it might have a data corruption issue, which will erase the iPod's hard drive, re-install the latest software, and set it to defautl settings.

  • How do I move my files from my Macbook to a pc?

    How do I move my files from my MAcbook to my pc?

    What operating system is the PC running?
    You will need to turn on file sharing on the PC. For Windows XP use methods described here. Windows 7 here.
    Connect to the shared Windows volume by going to the Go menu in the Finder and selecting Connect to Server... In the resulting dialog type smp:// and the IP address of your windows machine. Click Connect and enter your Windows machine's username and password when prompted.
    The Windows share will now appear on your Mac's desktop. Drag the items you want to copy over to it.
    Best of luck.

  • How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    The new mini has a Firewire 800 port. Likely the PPC version only has Firewire 400.  The OP will need a converter cable which is why I was asking first about what hardware is available and how much is being copied.
    Probably go with using the external hard drive if you decide all you want are data files.
