Itunes 11.0.2 not importing videos

Hi everyone,
I've recently upgraded to the newest version of itunes (11.0.2) and I find that I am unable to import videos. I've tried mp4's and mpeg's and nothing happens. I've checked the entire library (Including home videos) and nothing ever shows up. I need to import the videos so I can watch them on my ipad mini. I have tried converting the movies to every format but itunes will not even try to import them. I've tried dragging and adding the files but to no avail.
Is there a solution to this problem or do I have to wait for a new itunes?
Thanks,
Muscateers

Marydore, this seemed to work for me [assuming you are on a Mac as well]: With iTunes Program closed I changed the name of iTunes folder [where all the music and apps were located] to "itunesbackup". Then I opened iTunes [where it only showed "cloud" stuff in the library, stuff I had purchased and could download again]. I noticed that when I did that, iTunes created a new "iTunes" folder and directory tree [which was different from how the folder was organized before, compared to the how the folders were in "itunesbackup"]. Then I just moved the music from "itunesbackup" into the music folder in the new "iTunes" folder [the one that it autocreated]. Then I went back to iTunes Program and selected "add to library." Then directed it to the new music directory.
Everything seems to be working now! Sorry if I did a poor job explaining it, Im not the "programmer" type. I never deleted anything, just moved files from one folder to another... Let me know if it works for you [if you try it]

Aperture Does Not Import Videos using IMPORT FOLDER AS PROJECTS

SOLVED - Aperture 3.2.1 does not import videos using "Import Folder as Project"
After 2 days of trying to figure this out (actually around 2 hours total) I've finally managed to import all my photos & videos last year. 200 Gigs 54,000 files. First few tries resulted with referenced photos only, no videos. I had no luck with Google, even tried moving a couple of .plist as mentioned from this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/11188017?messageID=11188017#11188017 - this worked for some but not for me. Some issues were solved by NOT selecting "Raw Only", this will cause Aperture to skip your videos.
Thank you to these people who took time to share. In return I am posting my micro contribution to the Aperture Community. FILE > SWITCH TO LIBRARY > then create a new library. You should be able to import your photos with videos in folders.
I hope this gets into Google soon. :-)

, I see only the file, where these photos are, not the photo names or thumbs inside the file (Aperture import path).
You mean in the Aperture Import panel the folder, where the jpegs should be, is empty?
Then you may have excluded jpegs from import in your "Import Settings".
Check the above settings in the "Import Settings" options in the "Import Window". I.e-make sure the Raw+Jpeg Pairs option is set to "Both", even if you do not import raws.
After reassembled all the programs to a new hard drive in Mac Pro
Is this new Harddrive your system volume? And are the jpegs you wat to import located on this drive? Or are the on another external volume? If yes, how is this volume formatted?
Have you checked the permissions and ownership of the jpegs?

Iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library?

iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library? Pls help.

This is what that error means:
-54
permErr
Software lock on file; Not a subscriber [permissions error on file open]
Download and launch BatChmod. Put the videos into a subfolder and drag that folder containing the video files into the Batchmod window. Make sure you are the owner and have R,W, X access as well as the group. Everyone will have R only.
Check the Change ownership and privileges, Unlock and Apply to enclosed boxes and then click on the Apply button. When done try importing the files again.

Lightroom 4.1 will not import video from the Olympus OM-D EM-5

Lightroom 4.1 will not import video from the Olympus OM-D EM-5. It sees the files in the import dialog, but it fails during import.

SUGGESTION:
Install the Canon EOS Utility that came with your camera. Also check for an updated version of the EOS Utility after the install. You need to install from the CD first before you can install any updates.

ImageJ in Yosemite can not import video from QuickTime plugin

ImageJ in Yosemite can not import video from QuickTime plugin.... it seems can not found QuickTime_Capture.jar within QuickTime_Plugins.jar but I'm sure it is in the plugin directory.
I google this problem but not luck!

Thank you Benjt and Sue:
I have first chosen to followed Sue's suggestion concerning the firewire connections since that looked to be the one most easily done quickly. I therefore had to make more room on the hard drive in my MacBook Pro since the drive is only 100 GB. I normally use an external 400GB drive to hold my video files since one of the plays last May required about 200GB! However, the play this time was a short one and not really High Density anyway like the one was in May with a much finer camera. I have been connecting the external HD via Firewire800.
I simply moved a number of files from my MacBook Pro drive and put them in the external HD as well as another HD and then disconnected the external HD from my MacBook. I was, indeed, able to import the entire tape in one shot into iMovie. iMovie is still not working right since I found that I had to click "import" in iMovie to start collecting a clip and then hit "play" on my camcorder to actually import the tape contents into the clip. I found the whole play, just 50 min this time, in that clip when we returned home this evening.
I can now get the editing done one their last play for the kids and have DVDs for them when I go back up to Gainesville to record their current play on Thursday evening.
I will then devote some time to trying to solve the rest of the problem, looking into Benjt's suggestions.
Thanks very much for your very timely critical and positive help this afternoon. For your information, I also have been working on learning Final Cut Express but as I tried to put all of my reading into practice, I now I can't even get FCE to open - but that's another story and a very different problem.
Thanks again.

I can not import videos frames to layers.

I can not import videos frames to layers. ( I do have QuickTime )

You may whant to look at your windows creash reports to see where CS4 is crashing, It may help you find a solution if there is one.
Photoshop is not designed as a video editor. Video is more or less and add on.
Photoshop video support was also significantly enhances in CS6. While there is still support for menu File>Import>Video Frames to layers. Its not the best way to get video into Photoshop. Even dropping a quicktime file onto Photoshop is better. I find the best way to get video into Photoshop is using the Video Timeline add media into. Its quicker, You have better control of selecting the frames you want, And you can turn a video timeline into layers and a frame animation if that is what you want to work on.
If you want to do video get a lost cost video editor like Premier Elements. If you just want do do simple video editing spring for CS6 or subscribe to the cloud. CS6 will set you back some $700 for Standard $1000 for extended. Where $10 a month will get you the cloud. Where your get Photoshop Extended and can also use LR. I do not use LR or do video editing. I get the cloud mostly for the improvements being made to ACR and ACR in Cloud Photoshop is a Filter in addition of being a Photoshop and Bridge Plug-in.
Frame Animations and video timeline can be save for web as animated poor choice for video or large frame animation. They can also be rendered out as video. Video file sized are much smaller then Animated GIF have better color and can contain audio as well. Here the 1920x1080 Gif file size was nearly 29MB where the High Quality mp4 with audio was about 6MB.
View Screen capture in new tab or browser window the site scale screen captures very poorly at times.

Itunes will not Import Video???

Ok my itunes doesnt like me or something. Yesterday it let me import a .avi video file and convert it so my ipod can play it. So that one worked fine. Tried to do a few different ones today, no go. I try to import the file to my itunes library, it does nothing, acts like i did nothing, looking at me like what do you want? I tried downloading a .avi converter to m4p files still the same thing, it lets me drag it to the library but does not load it anywhere. I tried dragging it directly to my ipod which works but now its just the audio and not the video. Anyone have any ideas? I have pretty much given up at this point so any tips or tricks anyone has got please let me know. I just bought this like 3 days ago.
Thank you,

Have you tried VideoDrive? It's available at www.aroona.net and as of version 1.2 it allows you to directly import mp4 videos in iTunes. And it can also import AVI, DIVX, etc without reconversion.

ITunes(Mac) will not import video files

I just bought a new ipod and I was anxious to add some videos I created in iMovie. Unfortunately iTunes will not "import" or "Add to Library" nor can I drag and drop the videos to iTunes. I've tried iPod mp4, QT.dv and QT.mov formats. There is no error message, when dragging and dropping there is a green "+" circle like it is going to work but nothing is added to the movie library. My audio seems to be working properly but movies simply will not import. I have the latest iTunes (7.0.2) Can anyone help? If it makes a difference I am using my iMac G4, not the dual G5 listed on my profile.

The open-source, freeware HandBrake program processes your video or DVD, enabling you to bypass iTunes for this function. After processing, just drag and drop the video file to your computer-connected iPod.

I can not import video frames in photoshop elements 12

Hello,
I want to import video frames (for making an animated gif). The instructions how to do this in elements is clear (Go to File, choose Import, choose video frames), but I don't see that last option in the menu... See screenshot.
(I tried to import video via Organizer but that is not possible either)
So what to do?
Thanks for any help.
Robert

Frame from video was removed because it was just too old and not useful for what video is like today. It was designed to grab a frame from those short tiny videos that early digital cameras made, you know the ones that could record about 30 seconds of video at 300 x 400. It was never any good at longer videos and couldn't do HD at all, so adobe removed it because it was becoming more of a problem than a solution. It is not in any language version of PSE 12.

IPhoto does not import video from iPhone 4

We've been battling this problem for a while now. We have two iPhone 4's and any time we import photos to iPhoto, we have to select photos individually, making sure to NOT select any videos taken with the iPhone 4, in order to get them to import to iPhoto. If there is a video in the set, all photos after that are reported as unrecognized format and won't import. We can then select those photos that didn't import and reimport them and it works. Importing videos, either single videos or groups, or when mixed in with photos just doesn't work. Every time it fails with the unrecognized format error. We are able to import directly from a flip video camera, or if we first transfer the videos from the iphone to the hard drive using a different utility, but when we then import those files into iPhoto, they come in, but without the usual thumbnail image (they show up in the library as black).
This problem has been going on since iPhoto 09. We bought the 11 upgrade hoping it would fix this problem. It made it a little better (we used to not be able to import anything from the phones), but it still doesn't work for video. If it were just one of the phones I'd say it was the phone, but both phones have the problem. We've been seeing this problem for many months now.

Believe me, we've tried it all. Resetting, restarting, reinstalling, clearing preferences, caches, resetting databases, removing all photos off the iPhone and starting from zero. I've read probably 15 different threads on the subject and tried at least as many solutions. In a few instances the problem got better...for 1 sync. Then it cropped up again. I tried syncing to a fresh iPhoto database, and the problem came back for that one as well. I'm really hoping that Apple is working on a solution for this. We've put a lot of effort into our iPhoto archives and the main reason we bought the iPhone's was for the camera (even suffering through AT&T's questionable coverage for it). It doesn't seem like we are the only ones having this trouble.

URGENT iMovie not importing video

Hi there,
I have a really urgent iMovie project I need to have completed by Monday, however I am having extreme difficulty importing my last video file for some reason. I am uploading footage from a SONY HD HANDYCAM (it says HDR-SR11) and I am using iMovie '09. Very confused as have always been able to upload footage from the camcorder - in fact did it yesterday with no troubles - but when I go to import this one clip (12mins), it goes through the process of 'importing', however no actual footage/ thumbnails is uploaded on the iMovie screen. I have selected to view 'All Clips' so that is not a problem. I have also deleted all events/projects and tried again but that one video still will not import.
When I go into Finder I can see the clips there except they cannot be opened although they are from the exact same camera as the rest. I have also tried on another Mac computer but with the same result. I cannot import to iPhoto, nor does it let me export using the free version of MPEG-2 converter.
I am using the camera to computer USB cable by the way.
I really, really appreciate any help or advice in advance, and apologise if this is a trivial problem but can't seem to find any answers in the hours I have spent on it, nor online.
Cheers,
Norrista

Hi Bengt W,
Thank you so much for your imput. I have tried the option you said about creating a new account, however that did not change anything.
In regards to your question about space - I assume I can just click Inspector on my iMac image - it says there are 7.94 GB free. And when I was 'importing' this video file into iMovie it said there was 2 hours 57 mins available which I thought would be fine as the clip is only 12 mins.
I really appreciate any further advice you can give me because I'm coming to the deadline now and it isn't something I can just go out and shoot again unfortunately.
And as a side note, I have tried selecting the Camera Archive option, but iMovie does not then allow me to import the files afterwards.
Many thanks again,
Norrista

Lightroom 4.4 not importing video, Mac OS X. Canon 5d Mk2

Hi,
I Just bought LR on the weekend and upgraded to 4.4 as per request during the install process. The only problem I seem to have is it not importing any video files. I am running it on a Macbook Pro 2010 with OS X Mountail Lion - latest updates, etc and I have a Canon 5d MkII with .MOV files. This is quite a basic system/setup and from what Lightroom claims to do it should handle this no problem. I have tried importing from a memory card, the camera itself, and other hard drives. There are no permissions issues.
Any help would be great, thanks.
I have searched th forums and it seems a few people are having problems but there does not seem to be a solution yet, besides some 3rd party plugin issue. Is this just a problem with the 4.4 update? So basically a bug issue on Adobe's part?
Thanks.
- Mal

Hi Cheers,
It seems to hang for a while and I get the error message:
"There is a problem with this video file(1)"
However there is no problem, it play fine with pretty much everthing and is a standard 5d Mkii video file.
Thanks,
- Malik
