HT2729 Why can't I use my videos in iTunes?

I have the latest version of iTunes.
So here's what I do. I press Ctrl + O (File > Add File to Library), then I click the movie I want to add to my iTunes Library. iTunes seems to load for about two seconds, then... nothing. The movie isn't added to the library. I've tried it in .avi, .mp4 and .mov so far, but it's not working at all. I'm trying to add an actual movie, by the way. It's about 700 MB in size. Is there a size limit? The movie was given to me by a friend, originally in .avi format.
Am I missing something?

iTunes supports only mov mp4 and m4v video formats.  If you have added above format files to iTunes library and still not showing in the movies library, please repair your QuickTime.
Control Panel > Programs n Features > highlight QuickTime, click CHANGE then REPAIR.

  • Why can't I use HD video from my Samsung Galaxy S2 in Final Cut Pro 6?

    My Samsung Galaxy S2 shoots gorgeous 1080P HD Video.  It has no trouble importing into iPhoto, but when I want to edit in Final Cut Pro 6, it won't accept the file.  Anyone know how I can fix this?  Thanks.

    FCP doesn't edit the format the camera shoots. You need to convert the video files to ProRes...then import into FCP.
    If you want an app that edits formats natively, look at Adobe Premiere CS5.5.

    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.

  • Why can I not upload any video's?

    So I just bought your Adobe Photoshop and premiere elements.
    I own a Panasonic Lumix camera that takes pictures and video
    I can upload the cideos from this camera to windows movie maker, but when I try to upload it to premiere all I get is an audio file
    Why can I not use the video with this program

    save
    Nothing to be confused about. We put the details together and find the solution. Specifically....
    1. What version of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system are they running? For now I will assume versions 12 on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit. But those are important details to start with.
    2. You say that your video is from a Panasonic Lumix camera...which model and what are your camera settings?
    We should be about to know what your source media are from that although a properties readout from programs such as MediaInfo or gspot would be useful.
    http://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
    But to expedite matters, let us see what we can do from just knowing the brand/model/camera settings. Please include the file extension of this problem file?
    3. Once we have the information above, then we need to make sure that the project preset that you are using for Premiere Elements matches the properties of those source media. But, all we need to know, may be in your full answer to "2".
    Let us start here. We can go at whatever pace you want for getting to the core of this issue.

  • HT2534 why can't I use money in my account to subscribe for music match subscription?

    why can't I use money in my itunes account to subscribe for music match subscriptions?

    If you switch you will have to backdate it to keep the overages from happening. Also you'll pay the difference in advance. So if the difference is $20. You pay $40 more next month compare to this month, but the following month will be $20 more like it should(bill in advance). When you downgrade plans you'll get credited the difference like it should as it works both ways.

  • I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library?

    I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library? I assumed that like  the videos in iPhoto, I would be able to access the videos in Aperture through iMovie. Come on Apple! I am starting to get frustrated with your products here. And this is saying a lot when I have been using and loving apple products for the last 4 years.

    Hi. My camera is a Canon 600D. And yes my videos are stored in the Aperture library and they are not referenced. Even then I tried to select all the videos in Aperture and clicked 'consolidate masters' and there was a messge that said all 'none of the files are referenced',... so they didn't need consolidating.
    I also tried preferences> export> external video editor > choose > iMovie. And then right click on the video to edit with imovie. Even then the video didn't show up in iMovie. It seems like the only option for me is to import the videos directly to iMovie which means there will be two versions of the same file stored in my computer eating up space.
    APPLE. What are you doing?

    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • Why can't I open facebook videos on my ipad and iphone?

    Why can't I open facebook videos on my ipad and iphone any more? I used to be able to open most but now I can't open any.  Now it just comes up with a message 'unable to play video.Check your internet connection and try again' There is nothing wrong with my internet connection. I am on wifi and full signal strength. This is happening on both ipad and iphone. It's not the problem where sometimes a video wants Adobe to open it. This message comes up as soon as you try to click on the video play button in the video. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this please?

    Thanks for this Griff but it's not the app that isn't responding.  I am in the facebook app (on both iPhone and iPad) and the app is working fine but if people post a video I can't look at the video on the iPhone or iPad.  i always used to be able to but now it keeps coming up with the message I mentioned above.  So I can no longer watch videos from facebook on either my iPad or iPhone.  Here is a screen shot of my phone of what is happening.  As you can see I have full wifi so there is nothing wrong with my internet connection. This is really annoying as I used to be able to watch videos on both phone and ipad out of facebook.  now I can't.  Hope you can help.  regards and thanks Vicki

  • Why can't I use iPad first gen with iMovie?

    Why can't I use iMovie with the first gen iPad? 

    It does not have a camera.
    iMovie iOS is made to edit video recorded on the device.
    Some also suggest that the processor is not fast enough.
    I doubt it, but those are the best suggestions I have heard.

  • I don't know why can't i use manycam app in Skype?

    i don't know why can't i use manycam app in Skype?
    i need a help to use it!
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Does the ManyCam option appear in other apps ?
    Messages for instance or Photo Booth ?
    In Messages you will have to go to the Preferences > Video section and the camera drop down (below the pic)
    In Photo Booth there are no Preferences as such and you use the Camera Menu. (when you have two cameras)
    One reason for not seeing the Many Cam is you have not restarted the computer since installing it.

  • SVN support in CFB leaves something to be desired

    One of the nice features about CFB is its ability to link to source files outside of the project folder.  I prefer this to what I would normally do in CFEclipse, where the project folder and the source folder were the same. What's no so good is that
