Trouble importing .mov files into FCP X

I'm relatively new to FCP so this could be a really easy fix. I took a bunch of short video clips (20s --> 1.5 min) on my Panasonic ZS25 and imported the clips to my MacBook Pro (2008 with 2GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Memory and 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor). [I have version 10.8.4 of OSX]. The clips from my camera were in .mts format so I used the Smart Convertor Pro App from the App Store to convert all 80 files to a .mov format. Both the converted clips and FCP X are stored on my 700 GB external, and while I tried to import the clips into FCP X, the program almost immediately froze and shut down. Thinking I "overloaded" (for lack of a better word) FCP X, I decided to try and delete the blank clips that were showing up in the program. However each time I attempted to click on a clip the program crashed again. I eventually was able to delete all the clips, and decided to move the converted clips from my external to my desktop. Once they were moved I then tried to import just one clip from the desktop to FCP X (which is still run through my external). Although it was successfully imported, once I clicked on the file to play it in FCP X the program crashed again.
What can possibly be the problem and what can I do to fix it?
Note: This is my first time using both my new camera (and having to deal with this .mts BS) as well as FCP X.

Thanks Russ, Tom, and Hughmass for all your input. It really is appreciated. Unfortunatly even after moving FCPX to my desktop and converting the .mov files in MPEGstreamclip, importing the movie clips into the program still causes random shut downs. Perhaps the clips are corrupted or something? I honestly don't know, and I'd rather kind of just ignore this problem then keep hashing away seeing as the clips aren't that important (and yes, being super smart, i deleted them off the camera well before hand).
Just to make sure FCPX works, I took some short clips on my Panasonic DMCZS25, and imported them successfully into FCPX and was able to edit together a quick piece. Thanks again for all your help!

Importing mov files into iMovie events

Hi
This is my first post ever on this site. Here goes!
I am new to iMovie, but have had someone more experienced trying to help but to no avail!
I am trying to import mov files into iMovie Events. However in the file menu there is no "events' option, so I chose 'Import Movies'. But ultimately when I click on the mov files they are greyed out.
The version of iMovie I have is iMovie '08 - 7.1.4
When I first opened iMovie it offered to update to the latest version, but in the end it said 'No updates available'. When I looked into this in the Apple Store, it said you need Mac OSX 10.7 or above to get the latest version. My Mac is 10.6.8, so won't support the latest version. However, can I not still use the version I have? What is wrong here?
Any help much appreciated - thanks.
Ermina.

If you don't get an answer here, you might want to post your question in the iMovie discussion here.

Hi Appleman - thanks for your guidance.

And re the types of tracks you mention that iMovie '08 can't import, I don't much about film clips so haven't yet made sense of this, tho I do see that the clips are organised into chapters, so presumably this is 'chapter tracks'?
Thanks - I'll await your further instructions :-)

Import mov files into premiere pro cc windows

Hi
to import mov files into premiere pro cc 64bit ,windows 8.1 64bit pro do i need Quicktime pro or quicktime alternative ?
because when i try to import a mov file i got this error
thanks
i remember cs6 was able to import it
i have never installed quicktime pro

Your question simply cannot be answered definitively for a given clip because it's the codec that matters, not the wrapper/file extension.
As of one of the 7.x releases, Premiere implemented native support for decoding some codecs within a QuickTime file. But that native support does not extend to the entire universe of codecs that can be stuffed into the wrapper.
So you can either report the codec or simply install QT and see if that enables PPro to import the clip.

Need help importing MOV files into iMovie

I am trying to import MOV files from a USB disk -- into iMovie's event library. When I click on the files on the USB -- they are grey and won't import. They will play in QuickTime. What could the problem be? I have the latest OS and am up to date.

Can you maybe try converting them? Download the free program called Miro Video Converter from the Mac App Store. Drag the video into the window and set the output format as mp4. iMovie should import that properly.
Sorry I couldnt be more of a help.
Let us know!

Cannot import specific MOV file into iMovie. HELP please!

I have been using iMovie for many years and am not a novice.
For some reason, I have a specific MOV file that I cannot import into iMovie 10.0.5. When I try to import the file, I get an error message:
"No Importable Files: None of the selected files or folders can be imported"
The file is NOT corrupt and plays perfectly in QuickTime. Interestingly, when I try to import the movie in iMovie, it shows 0.0 sec duration, even though it load/plays perfectly in iMovie with a duration of 54:45. See file A1 below:
I even tried converting the file to M4V in Quicktime, but iMovie would still not import the new M4V file.
Any suggestions? This is an important Movie, I cannot re-record it, and I need to edit it in iMovie.
Thanks in advance!

I copied it below. I would appreciate any suggestions!

== Importing .mov Quicktime into FCExpress4???? Still Pix?? ==

If I switch to FCE4, will it fix what I hate about IMovie?? IMPORTATION.
-0-
I want to upgrade from IMovie (I use 06HD because I like the full timeline) and my main motivation is to eliminate the very tedious time-consuming importation process. I make MP4 HD1080 files with a camcorder and also have many .mov files. Importing, say, 10 gigs takes DAYS. Literally. Using Quicktime Pro to covert to DV files takes as long (I assume that Imovie '06 HD is USING Quicktime to convert all the .mov and .mp4 files to the .DV files that IMovie is made for).
Does Final Cut Express 4 actually edit .mov and .mp4 files, or does it convert them like IMovie does? Would the importation process in FCE4 be FAST, like it is in FC Pro?
-0-
And a still photo question: I just used IMovie '06 HD to edit a 20 minute movie on my trip to Nepal. Half of it was made from 7 megapixel stills, almost always using the Ken Burns Effect to zoom right or left aty various speeds. It was easy and looks great. Would FCE4 import and manipulate those kind of still as well as IMovie?
-0-
Finally, does FCE4 have a version of Compressor, so my final movies will fit on on one DVD in the highest quality?
Thanks for helping.
Steve H

Let's take this in steps, because of the many questions.
Does Final Cut Express 4 actually edit .mov and .mp4 files, or does it convert them like IMovie does?
FCE does edit .mov Quicktime files, as well as DV in realtime. .mp4 files won't work in FCE, they will first need to be converted using Quicktime Pro or MPEG Streamclip to a Quicktime file FCE can use.
Would the importation process in FCE4 be FAST, like it is in FC Pro?
The speed of import depends on the computer that you are working on. However, FCE is pretty much the same interface as FCPro, and is in most respects the same. FCE should work for importing exactly the same as FCP does, except that it can only work with DV, HDV, AVCHD, and several Quicktime codecs.
Would FCE4 import and manipulate those kind of still as well as IMovie?
Yes, FCE should work as well as iMovie for stills. While no editing program was designed for still image manipulation, and thus the quality of any results are still not perfect, anything you make in FCE you should expect to be of comparable quality to iMovie stills. As to the Ken Burns effect, here I believe you are in for a treat. iMovie HD ('06) only allows you to pick start and end points for the effect. FCE lets you individually keyframe motion, so you can build any photo effect you'd like. For example, you could have a photo that pans from left to right, zooms in, then stays still for 30 seconds before rotating while at the same time zooming back out and moving off the screen. FCE lets you manipulate the parameters for a clip, and save how you want them to be at a particular time, giving you endless possibilities for animation of stills and video alike.
Finally, does FCE4 have a version of Compressor, so my final movies will fit on on one DVD in the highest quality?
FCE does not have a separate program (Compressor) as FCP does. However, if you export as Quicktime Movie then no quality will be lost. You then import that movie into iDVD for burning. iDVD does the encoding so that it will compress your files to fit on the DVD, at the highest quality possible. FCE's lossless export allows iDVD to burn so that you see minimal quality degradation between editing and viewing on your TV.
Hope this helped. I also switched from iMovie HD to FCE because I wanted more options. For me, the ability to have up to 99 video and audio tracks for advanced compositing as well as keyframing were what really drew me in. I couldn't have been more happy with the decision I made!

Importing movies to itunes. Please help!

Hi all,
So far this discussion board has been my saviour as am new to all this ipod business. Hopefully someone can answer this question too...
I have some movie files on my computer but they are AVI files. When I try to import them into itunes (by selecting add file to library) nothing happens at all. Do I have to convert the files to another type? If so, what's the best way to do this? I found a website which said I should convert them to mov files using a program called SUPER. Is this correct? Cause I tried this already and it took hours just to do one standard film.
I would be so grateful if someone could help me out on this one. It's driving me crazy! Thanks in advance

You would have to use a program, but the Touch won't work with high resolutions, it just doesent import them to it, 853 x 480 or lower is best to use

Why can't i import .mov files into imovie

Everytime recently I've tried to import a .mov file into imovie, its come up with the optimizing video box but nothing happens, I used to import straight from the camera, but I've recently emptied my camera onto my hard drive after a trip to New Zealand and now, when I have tried to import the footage from my hard drive, it does the optimizing video freeze on me. I would like to be able to get these movies into Imovie without having to pay a rediculous amount of money for some little converting program. I originally bought a apple computer, because I thought everything worked with each other, but now, I'm not so sure about that anymore.
Also, I've tried MPEG streamclip and all that did was either freeze on me or make the video size smaller, as in, the sides were pushed in and it ruined the video.
Camera: Canon HD Legria HFR38

What codec are the files? .mov is a container that can house many different video codecs.
Is your camera supported?

Problem importing MOV files into iPhoto

I am getting an error when importing my iPhone mov files into iPhoto -- "The following file could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format". However the file plays ok with Quicktime.
Can someone help me with this? Its a brand new mac and I have the latest iPhoto too.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Regards
TD
