HT1338 Issue w/playing videos from iPhone in iPhoto

QuickTime isn't playing videos in iPhoto downloaded from my iPhone 5.  How do I fix this? Thanks!

Create a smart album with the following criteria:
Filename    contains    .m
This will group all of your movie/video files together, .mov, .m4v, and mp4.  Then check to see if the lates videos are included.  If the are Command (right) - click on one of the videos and select Show Event from the contextual menu.
The the videos are not in the library launch Image Capture (located in the Applications folder) and use it to manually upload the videos to a folder on the Desktop.  From there import them into iPhoto.

  • Can't sync videos from iPhone to iPhoto

    Just bought a MacBook Pro. My daughter has sent me some videos from her iPhone to mine. When I try to sync from iPhone to iPhoto, the photos sync fine, but iPhoto doesn't see the videos, which are saved in the camera roll. Yes, I have checked "include videos" in the iTunes menu.
    The funny thing is that on my old G4 PowerBook, iPhoto would see the videos and import them just fine.
    What am I not doing?

    iPhoto should import them just fine. Have you tried repairing permissions on your Macbook, then re-booting & see if iPhoto will see & import them.

  • Playing video from iPhone 4 on PC

    I wonder if anyone has any suggestions for a fix. I have been able to transfer both pictures and video from my phone to my PC without problem. The videos have the quicktime thumbnail but if i try to play it with quicktime the sound is ok but all I get are blocks of vaious moving colours. I have tried downloading new codecs with no effect. By chance I found that the video will play in realplayer but nothing else. Ultimately i want to be able to edit the video. I am quite happy to buy Quicktime pro for PC but don't want to do this will also not play the video.

    Hi many thanks for your help. Unfortunately I have already tried both those solutions with no joy. The files are opened by the soft ware but when it plays the video it is just blocks of colour but the sound plays ok.

  • How do you play videos from iPhone that are in iPhoto they show up as pictures not videos

    made a video on iphone and synced to iphoto on imac. I can view the video on my mac but they do not sync to my ipad or to apple tv. do the videos need to be converted? should be seemless if the video is recorded on an apple device.

    I can't offer any insight into Apple's policies (and discussion of them is not permitted by the ToU of the forum), but a simple solution to your problem is Dropbox.

  • Moving photos and videos from iPhone, to iPhoto, to external harddrive. Videos come out to be less than 0 seconds. HELP, PLEASE!

    Hi guys! This is my first discussion and I'm not exactly sure what kind of details to put, so I'll just be as detailed as possible. I hope I don't confuse anyone. I really REALLY need help!
    I've got a 16 GB iPhone 4S and always find myself filling up my phone with photos and videos, so I upload both onto my MacBook Pro 2011. Now that my laptop's getting full... I'm uploading all of those backed up photos and videos onto a 500 GB Seagate external harddrive.
    All of my photos open just fine. It's the videos that I'm worried about. All of the videos that I've loaded from last year (2013) are playing well. Anything before 2013 aren't opening properly. I'm opening the video files directly from my external harddrive. It goes:
         1) Opens up QuickTime Player
         2) Shows that it's converting
         3) Shows a frame from the video, but the time says 0:00-0:00.
    I had a LOT of videos from before 2013 and would like to retrieve them if possible. They're no longer on my laptop though. All of the video files are 20 KB - 980 KB and has to convert on quicktime player for me to watch them. Some of the video files I've tried out were from 2013 and 24 KB and opened just fine. I've opened both ~20KB - ~900 KB video files before 2013 and they're all 0:00-0:00 time length. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks!

    I have the same issue.  We've lost all of our older videos including videos of our children and since passed family dog.  I have no idea why this has happened.  I have backed up religiously, but now even the archived photos are 0 seconds.  So frustrated with iPhoto.  This is the second time this awful software mysteriously lost pictures or videos.  Last time it was the birth pictures of my second daughter.  And now this.  Horrible horrible product. 
    Older videos are all now just 0:00:00 in length.  We did not alter these at all!!
    HELP!!

  • Transfered videos from iPhone to iPhoto, then what?

    So I was noticing, and actually I think maybe it has always done this, that after I import photos and videos from my iPhone 4 (and previously with my 3GS) to iPhoto, and I opt to delete the photos and videos from the phone, while the photos will end up getting synced back to the phone, which is what I want, the videos never end up back on my phone. Is there any way to get it to do this? I realize I could then take the photos from iPhoto and copy them over to iTunes and then sync them, but I don't understand why they don't just end up back on my phone like photos do, synced over from iPhoto. They are in iPhoto, just like my photos, but only the photos sync back. Am I missing something here?
    FYI, the issue here is really that the whole mechanism is klunky from the ground up. I shouldn't have to import them from the phone, then delete them, then copy them back, just so that the photos no longer show up in the "camera roll", but are available on the phone. Surely there's a way this could be handled much more smartly.

    And just like that I figured it out. In iTunes, under the "Photos" tab for the iPhone, there's a checkbox for "include videos". Sure enough, checking that checkbox did the trick. Hopefully somebody else finds this helpful!

  • Receive an error message when trying to import any videos from iphone to iphoto on my desktop.  Help?

    I have 6 videos on my iphone, varying in length from 24 seconds to 11 minutes, that will not import to iphoto.  I have tried to import them as a group and individually but get a message that 'there was a problem accessing the file.'  I had no difficulty importing over 300 photos from the phone to the desktop.  Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.  Thanks.  Anne

    See if you can use Image Capture to upload the video files to a folder on the Desktop and then import from there into iPhoto.

  • Issues transferring photo/video from iPhone 6 to Macbook Pro running OS X 10.8.5 via USB-to-Lightning cable

    Hello all—
    Recent upgrader to iPhone 6. I have a mid-'09 Macbook Pro running OS X 10.8.5 Mountain Lion and I'm seeking to transfer video I just shot on my iPhone 6 to my Macbook Pro. They are large files so I need to transfer via USB-to-Lightning cable as I don't have wi-fi capability to do the upload. However I can't access the iPhone 6 as a storage device through finder or image capture and can't figure out another way to transfer the files non-wirelessly. Any suggestions? The old iPhoto '09 on here won't let me import, either.

    Why virtualize Leopard and not Snow Leopard?
    I guess I did it once in Parallels:

    But to be honest, I have forgotten how!
    Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) installed into Parallels is another matter altogether!

  • How do I get videos from iPhone to iPhoto?

    I upgraded to 5.1 and iCloud, photostream etc, but am finding it much more complicated than the previous way I sync'd my iPhone.
    I used to plug in my phone, press Sync, all my photos would zoom from my Camera Roll to iPhoto, including any videos I had taken on my iPhone, then it would ask me if I wanted to delete the contents of my Camera Roll.  Apart from the fact that I would have liked to 'protect' a few photos before deleting them all, this worked well.
    I don't go on my MacBook every day, so I quite often build up quite a few photos on my iPhone.
    Now, only my photos sync, they don't do it quickly when I press sync, but slowly and in bits n bobs. The videos don't sync and I am not asked if I want to delete photos after they have been synced.
    Can anyone help? 

    And now every time I plug my USB to my iphone in, it comes up for about a minute in iPhoto, then disappears and I can't see it in Devices at all.
    I am sorry that I can't understand this, but I thought the point of Apple was that it was based on an intuitive system.  It used to be, because (as you can tell!) I am not techy, and yet it all worked perfectly and I have been yelling about it from the rooftops since 2003.
    But since upgrading to 10.7 and 5.1, iCloud and all the rest of it, everything has just gone to xxx. I am spending half my life fiddling around, trying to understand how the wretched system works and I am so fed up.
    My Word/Excel etc don't work any more, my iPhoto has gone to **** and I can't make my iPhone sync with my computer any more. I don't really understand the benefits of photostream and I am so hacked off with the whole thing that I feel like opting out altogether and writing on a wax tablet.
    I would be embarrassed, but I know that I am not alone. There are loads of people saying the same thing. You techies might think it is pathetic, but computers are meant to be for everyone, busy mums included.
    Sorry, rant over. Going to bed.
