HT1364 How do you convert iTunes movie files so that you can watch them on Windows Media Player?

Hello. For school, I am supposed to make a video mash-up from a movie. I bought the movie I needed, but now I can't open it in Windows Movie Maker to edit it.

Oh well then, thanks anyways! I guess I'll have to find something else to do.
Do you have any idea how people get movie clips for their videos on YouTube?

  • I have AVI files that I need to be MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

    I have AVI files that I need to convert to MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....When I have the files open in QT Pro do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

    I strongly recommend you use compressor to do the conversion (if it will open the files - since quicktime will open them, it will more than likely do it.
    Compressor allows you to customize presets and save them and apply them to multiple files.  Although the interface may seem daunting, it's actually pretty simple.
    Even if you can edit the avi in fcp, it's not a good idea.  Liable to cause problems down the road. 

  • I can't play movie downloads.  I've tried opening them with Windows Media Player, i-tunes, and Quick time but they don't work.

    I can't play i-tunes downloaded movies.  I've tried opening them with Windows Media Player, i-tunes, and quick time.  Nothing works.

    If after you download the movie, you navigate away and do something else with your Apple TV the content you have downloaded will be overwritten and you'll need to download it again. It's a pain in the neck for many who have slow downloads but it's something that comes with using volatile memory rather than a hard drive for storage.
    Perhaps you're not doing this, but I thought it worth mentioning.

  • How can I convert the metadata tags on my mp4s to xml files so that they can be read in Windows Media Center?

    I have a library with almost 3000 movies and TV shows that I have fully tagged. However, I have decided to start using Windows Media Center and it does its metadata tagging through XML files.  I wanted to know if anyone could tell me if there was a way to extract the metadata from those mp4s and convert them to a format that WMC could read?  Thanks!!!!

    iTunes can make XML playlists so it might be all you need, I made a simple one file playlist and exported it from iTunes. The result is shown below. In principle I could delete the playlist and the entry from the library, as long as I don't delete the file, then later reimport the XML playlist file. I haven't tested this particular scenario, but I assume that iTunes will read all the properties as listed unless it can read some kind of tag from the file itself in which case the current value of the tag would take precedence.
    What I don't know is what media center would make of this file, or what its files look like, however assuming they have a similar structure that can be decoded then it should be possible to read data from the iTunes library and write out a text file that will make sense to media centre.

  • How do I put several iphone 4 home video clips together on Quicktime so that I can watch them together on the one DVD.

    How do I put several iphone 4 home video clips together on Quicktime so that I can watch them together on the one DVD as a movie. And what export setting do I use to play on a DVD player?

    QuickTime Player is not itself able to do this. You need a proper DVD authoring solution such as Apple's iDVD.

  • C00D118E: You device is using an outdated driver that is no longer supported by Windows Media Player

  • How do I store and save photos in a file so that I can clear the main window

    How do I move and store photos in an album so that I can delete them from the main screen as this is getting very clogged up. Thanks

    You don't "delete them from the main screen". You can increase the size of thumbnails - note the slider on the bottom of the window - and scroll.

  • Converting video on imovie hd to play on a PC with windows media player

    Hi, i have recently transfered video from a mini dv camcorder to imovie hd on my imac/ macbook which i have done successfully, i now have to convert it to a DVD or CD Rom which has to be played on my bosses PC which has windows media player installed on it, at present it is saying file not supported, how do i go about doing this? in the easiest possible way......Thanks

    In iMovie, Share > Media Browser.
    Open iDVD, clcik Movies in the Media pane and select the iMovie you made then burn that.
    This will be a standard DVD which can be used on any DVD player or DVD application.
    Windows Media Player doesn't play DVDs as standard as it needs to have a decoder installed.
    See this -> Playing DVDs in Windows Media Player
    If he has a DVD drive on his computer, it should have come with a DVD player application.

  • I just ripped over 750 movies and they all play and sound great on Windows media player.  Some work on AppleTV and others have no sound.  The Audio is dolby 5.1 and yes I disabled the Dolby on the AppleTV.  Still no sound.  What up That?

    iTunes has no sound for the movies too.  It is obviously an Apple issue since they ALL play just fine on the Windows Media Player. 

    Encoding you say.  I noticed that all the movies without sound are listed in 'Home Video' section of iTunes.  The process used to digitize the movies was identical for all the movies.  Is there a way to identify the encoding problem?  I have redone a movie several times, setting the audio to different levels.  When I set it to Stereo the sound came through, but choppy.

  • How can I make the Windows Media player the default player for my browser.

    I cannot listen to radio station WYSL 1040 AM on the web. They say that the default player on my browser must be the Windows Media player. How do I comply with their demand?

    In Firefox it is the MIME type that determines which player is selected.
    Install the new WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll), you only have the classic WMP plugin (Npdsplay dll)

    How do I convert my files to iWork 09 so that I can open my files in Maverick?

    You  simply open the old files in the newer versions of iWork that work with Mavericks and the iApps should automatically convert the old file format to the new one.. but once that's done there's no going back to the old iApp version with your docs.

  • ITunes wn't show some of the movies I have purhased, how can I make it so I can see that I have purchased them, and so that i can watch them again? Could someone help me please?

    Hello. I purchased movies on the first laptop that i had, but then it stopped working so i bought a new one. not being very good with technology and most likely screwing up somethings on my new laptop with itunes, it wont show that i had purchased any movies at all. I have an ipod touch and one of the movies got downloaded on it, so when i plugged it onto my new laptop it showed that i had it, but the other ones that are not on my ipod touch are also not on my new laptop.
    sorry if this confused you, i just really need help with it because it is about fourty dollars worth of movies. thanks!

    The ipod is not a backup device.  You should have everything on your comptuer backed up to an external source ( cd, dvd, flash drive, external drive, etc).
    Some movies are redownloadable, some are not.  The movie studios decide this.
