I can´t import Movies ( films ) that i´ve made on my ipod (then loaded into iphoto) onto imovie

What is an event ? why can´t I load my films directly from i photo to i movie ?

Don´t know what your talking about sorry ! OK I open the programme called imovie then got to ´ File ` moving the arrow head down I find Import from camera and then import with a little black triangle next to it, moving the cursor onto the black triangle I am then able to see the following options Movies, Camera archive,I movies for ios project, Imovie for hd project. BUT NO OPTION ´IMPORT FILM FROM IPHOTO` . I´m using My ipod to film stuff and the only way i know how the films are transfered from ipod to computer is via iphoto as they don´t appear in `Movies` in I tunes. I think there maybe also confusion with certain terms like film and movie and movies that you buy like hollywood films and films / movies you can make yourself. At the moment I drag the films onto my desktop from iphoto and then drag them into imovie . I havent been able to use imovie its to complicated the older versions that i had on my G3 imac was a much better product it was absolutely intuitive to use never needed to ask for help fast and fantastic results this newest version is to much hardwork to understand so i´ll probably give up any way .

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://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
(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.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
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. See this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
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.

TS1721 can i import movies to my Itunes library

can I import movies to my Itunes library

Hi, by default you can only add M4V, MP4 and MOV files. Simply drag and drop them into your library. If you have videos in other file formats (like AVI or MKV) you have two solutions: convert them with a tool like HandBrake. That takes a lot of work and time. Or you use a dedicated tool to import movies in iTunes. I use VideoDrive (www.aroona.net) for this. It will create small references to your videos in iTunes. And it will also add descriptions and covers so they look as nice as officially purchased movies. Keep in mind that if you do not convert the videos, they will not play on iOS devices. VideoDrive (and some others) to support conversions as well. So you always have the choice.
In my case, I add the videos without conversions so they are nicely categorized in iTunes. And the videos I do want to watch on my iPad, I convert later on. You can do this by selecting a video in iTunes and clicking File -> Create new version. Or use the 'Duplicate Video' feature of VideoDrive. I can imagine that this is overkill if you only have a couple of videos, but if you have a lot, it's great to have them all showing up with artwork in iTunes.

Can you import movie videos from SD camera card

Can you import movie videos (MP4) into an Ipad from an SD camera card on a Lightning cable ... or can you only do this from a laptop via Itunes? In other words, is Itunes the only way to get non-Itune videos to the Ipad? Hope I havent made this sound confusing.

To import the videos must follow a very strict naming convention.
All file names must have 8 characters for a name and be located in a folder named DCIM
for example
DCIM
MOV_5789.mp4
You can't watch the videos off the cart, they must be imported into the iPad. They'll go into the camera roll, when you tap on them it'll open the video app and you can watch from there.

Looks like it records in AVI format at 25 fps. I think that should import to iMovie OK - if not it should import to iPhoto and then be available in the iMovie Events Library under "iPhoto Videos". Importing shouldn't be a problem based on this extract from the web page:
"The glasses can be hooked directly to a PC with the supplied USB cable to view the video, or when using the Micro SD card, it can be inserted into a card reader to watch footage."

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox?

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox? I have exported the Firefox bookmarks from my old PC into a [Windows 8] folder on my new PC.
When I use the Firefox import facility, it will only import one bookmark at a time - and then it bookmarks all the main pages on the bookmarked website, not just the one which I originally bookmarked. It also does not import the information stored in the bookmark tag.

Sure thing.
# Open the run dialog by holding the Windows key and pressing R
# Type <code>%appdata%</code> into the run window and press ok
# Open the ''Mozilla'' folder
# Open the ''Firefox'' folder
# Open the ''Profiles'' folder
# Copy the folder that is located in this folder to a USB drive
# Install and run Firefox on the new computer
# Close Firefox
# Repeat steps 1 to 5 on the new computer
# Open the folder that you copied from the old computer
# Copy the contents of that folder into the folder located inside of the new computer's profile folder
# Allow Windows to replace any duplicate folders with the ones that you are copying onto the computer is prompted

Can rent a movie from the iTunes store on my computer, and then stream it to my apple TV (2nd gen)?

Can rent a movie from the iTunes store on my computer, and then stream it to my apple TV (2nd gen)?

Thank you alleycat. I have two rental movies in my iTunes library in the rentals section top left of the window that have not been played. I have home sharing turned on on both my apple TV and my Mac. Both machines are completely software updated. I can see all of my owned movies in the Computer>Library>Movies section of the menus, but neither the rentals themselves nor a rental fouler are anywhere to be found on the apple TV. I dropped by the apple store on the way home from work and they suggested that it should be working just as you described, and suggested a restore, which I've performed. Still no rentals from the Mac library are visible on the apple TV. Any ideas?

I downloaded movies from my ipad2 to my Mac and they went directly into iphoto. In imovie, I want to put these clips together but when I go to find the movies in events or albums where they are stored, they are not there. So, they show up in iphoto, but not I movie. I tried exporting them to desktop then to imovie, that didn't work either. Please help! How do I get my movie clips from my ipad2 to show up in imovie when creating?

They are not in the "events library" of imovie.
