Itunes not importing mov files

Hi, my itunes stopped importing the mov files. Can anyone help, i burned some movies with subtiles and it worked for the first 4 movies, but then it stopped. I tried drag and drop or add file to library and nothing happens!!

How can I tell that. I have several. I am also unable to view them in the finder window like I can other .m4v or .mov files.

  • Premiere pro will not import .mov files

    Premiere pro CS3 running on Vista 64 bit will not import .mov files. After Effects CS4 has the same problem, it says I don't have the correct version of Quick Time installed. I'm using the 64 bit version 7.6.4 for Vista. Any help would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Now, what is inside that .MOV "wrapper?" This ARTICLE will give you some background on "wrappers." It is mainly written with .AVI in mind, but translates to most AV file formats, including .MOV.
    Now, I use a lot of .MOV files and these are all done in the Animation CODEC. Never an issue for me.
    One thing that might aid you is the US$30 upgrade/unlock key to QT Player Pro. It can Export as a bunch of useful formats/CODEC's. Depending on whether your footage is SD, or HD, you can Export most to formats that play perfectly with PrPro.
    Good luck,

  • Premiere Pro CC will not import .mov files

    Having issues with Premiere Pro CC, I cannot import .MOV files created with my Canon 6D.
    If I try to import the files, I get a very generic "File format not supported" error msg.
    This is a new install of Premiere CC on a new computer. I was able to import them using Premiere Pro CC on the old computer.
    Quicktime will play these files fine on my new computer.
    Premiere Pro CS6 will import these files on the new computer.
    Premiere Pro CC would open them fine on my old computer.
    I'm not even sure where to start. Any help would be appreciated.
    Here are my system details:
    OSX 10.9.3
    new Mac Pro
    3Ghz 8-Core Xeon E5
    64 GB RAM
    Files are on external G-Tech Thunderbolt drive.

    That was I was thinking at first, but if Premiere CS6 (installed on the same computer) imports and plays them, they must be on the system, no?
    I really do not want to transcode. I have an existing project that uses the videos and the project on the new system will not import them or re-link to the videos. Really trying to get away from having to re-create the project and re-edit.
    Thanks!

  • Imovie not importing .mov file

    I have a video camera (an Oregon Scientific ATC9K).  Normally I take the ssd card out and plug it into my iMac.  I then let iPhoto import everything, then I copy all the files to either my iMacs secondary drive or a network storage device (a GoFlexHome).  I then import .mov files into iMovie, and have, until now, not experienced any issues with this... However, this time round, after my import into iMovie, I noticed some video missing, so I assumed I neglected to import it into the project event.  Note, I have already reformatted the ssd card but have the .mov file both imported into iPhoto and copied onto the external.  Each time I attempt to re-import, iMovie tells me it will take about 4 hours, and when I return, the video clip is still missing.  No error message, just not there.  So I start again... same result... so I create a new project, and import the .mov file... another 4 hours pass... and I'm left with an empty event folder for the new project... I thought it failed at first because I may have ran out of space... so I cleared a bunch of space and tried again... another four hours pass... nada.  iMovie thinks it has imported the movie, but there is nothing there.  I can watch the movie in iPhoto, but if I try to import it from iPhoto, iMovie claims it is in a format it cannot handle.  ***. Pardon the french, but this is getting extremly frustrating.

    QuickTime Pro is available for about $30 US from Apple online.
    There is a free package called MPEG Streamclip. You could export from MPEG Streamclip with no audio track. However, it may be that MPEG Streamclip will not edit copy protected material either, I have not tried it.

  • Flash cs4 not importing ".mov" files

    Hi guys.
    I have just upgraded to Flash CS4
    When I go to import a 2.6 GB .mov file to the stage I get the spinning beach ball of death for 5 minutes then a flash alert box saying that this file type is not supported. See screenshot attached.
    Can anyone help?

    You may be able to create the FLV by using the Adobe Media Encoder directly, instead of through Flash. You might have to use a third party app, maybe the one that created the MOV in the first place. Sorenson Squeeze should be able to handle files of that size.

  • Premiere CS5 not importing .mov files - codec missing or unavailable

    Hi,
    I'm on a Windows 7 PC running Premiere Pro CS5. Have encountered a problem with .mov files that I haven't had before. I recently received three files from a shoot at a local tv station. They are .mov files and I believe they are in an XD CAM wrapper or format. I've gotten files from this station before and have imported them with no trouble (not sure if the earlier files were XD CAM, though). When I try to import, I get the error message: Codec missing or unavailable. Would using the Prism video convertor to convert to another format be the way to go? The file sizes range from 7.18 GB to 14.9 GB. Thanks in advance.

  • Can't not import mov files into AE.

    This problem has appeared for some of the time. It causes several things I can't do in my After Effect, but I really have no idea how I can fix it.
    Problem 1: wait a long time to open the AE, it hangs on the initializing media core and takes about 10-15 mins to get through.
    Problem 2: can't import the mov files, and if I import the mov to the AE project, this pop up comes
                   "After Effects error: file 'file name.mov' cannot be imported - this 'MooV file is damaged or unsupported.'"
    Problem 3: can't output the comp as mov. and this pop up warming comes
                   "After Effects: One of the output modules could not be imported. It has been reset to use the default setting for the selected file format."
    I read some threads and I knew this might cause by the blocked communication between AE and QT. But I have double check my QT, it is version 7.6.6 and I have no firewall software installed, hence the communication is okay (i guess, since I can play the mov file normally and not the warm message that “QuickTime is not installed on this system…”) .
    Some other thread says may because of the three party component in the QT Library. This may make sense, cause I install some converters for converting the wmv and avi before…
    Here are the components in the QT Library:
    AviImporter.component
    FFusion.component
    iChatTheaterPreview.component
    IMXCodec.component
    XviD_Codec.component
    ↑↑The above 5 component I have move them out, but no luck still ↑↑
    AppleAVCIntraCodec.component
    AppleHDVCodec.component
    AppleIntermediateCodec.component
    AppleMPEG2Codec.component

    DesktopVideoOut.component

    Here are some background info about my mac:
    Mac OSX 10.6.8
    2x3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
    8GB memory
    AE CS5
    QuickTime Player 7 version 7.6.6

    I was having the same problem and so far this solution has worked for me. (knock on wood)
    Try setting your default player for .mov files to QuickTime.  (Mine was set to Windows Media Player)
    Right click on one of the mov files you are having a problem opening in AE.
    Select the "Open with" and select "Choose default program..." at the bottom.
    Select Quick Time. (Make sure the "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" box is checked.)
    Reboot your computer.
    Open AE and see if it works.

  • ITunes not importing MP3 files

    Hi, I've purchased an album online from an MP3 retailer and downloaded the tracks from the album (I've done this quite a few times from this web site).
    iTunes imported them fine using the "Add folder" function, however I've found that the song is skipped on my iPod.
    I've tried to play the tracks from iTunes and they just don't play. So I deleted the tracks and tried to reimport them, but the Add from Folder function just doesn't do anything - no error, no music in iTunes. Strangely, I added other MP3 files to the same folder and tried adding from the folder again, and the new tracks imported fine, but the original album tracks did not.
    I have double clicked on them from Explorer and Media Player plays them just fine, so the files seem OK. I've tried adding the files individually and tried using Explorer to "Open with iTunes" - again, nothing.
    This is really annoying me - has anyone else had this issue? I'm using iTunes 7.6.2.9 on Windows Vista.
    Cheers,
    Pete

    OK, if iTunes can't import the file, you could try working on the ID3 tag with a tag editor or repair tool. But if you experiment, always do it on a copy.
    You could try MP3 repair tool:

    MP3 Tag Studio also claims repair capabilities http://www.magnusbrading.com/mp3ts/

  • Premiere Pro CC 2014 will not import MOV files

    As of about two weeks ago, my Premiere Pro CC 2014 stopped importing my Canon MOV files. Never had a problem before. I've had to edit in CC to work around this. They import fine there.

    Jim,
    I've looked up all sorts of MP4/MOV comparisons on the web ... most conclude that mov is perhaps a bit "safer" on an Apple OS and mp4 "safer" on a PC and non-Apple "devices", but generally list the contents of the two as being nearly indistinguishable. I do realize the Qt has had ... issues ... within the Adobe programs, especially on PC's.
    You have any other good info? Always looking to learn from the more experienced ...

  • Can not import .mov files

    i've been trying to import a QT movie created in After Effects. Will not import. FCX keeps crashing.

    "When i import it shows it as "rejected"
    What does that mean? You mean it has a red bar across the top? How does the application tell you it's rejected?
    You'd better have plenty of RAM, a fast processor, and a fast drive to support 1080p Animation.

  • Itunes not playing movie files

    Hello,
    I recently replaced my hard drive and restored my computer with a time machine back up. However, I have changed the preferences in Itunes so that the Itunes Media folder is still on the old drive (which still has OSX 10.6.3, connected as an external drive).
    My Problem is Movie, TV Shows, and Video Podcasts are not playing in itunes. This includes videos I try to import and videos already in the itunes media folder.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    First, back up all data and then uninstall "DivX" according to the developer's instructions.
    Then try this:

  • ITunes not importing all files in a folder

    Hi everyone. I'm currently having some problems importing music into iTunes. When I select a folder to import, it only imports a select few, and the others it sort of skips over. Does anyone know the possible problem?

    OK, so converting tags back and forth does not seem to help. The only way I've been able to get iTunes to recognize these tracks is to completely remove the id3v2 tags. If I readd the tags after that, it works too.
    I have around 5000 tracks (randomly located, of course) that are messed up, so my only option would be to use some tag program to remove all tags from my library (around 15,000 tracks), and then to readd them. Not an attractive option.
    I'm really pretty disgusted with iTunes at this point. It seems that, well, 1. using it to convert my id3v1 tags to id3v2 screwed up a good chunk of my tags, and 2. any other mp3 player can recognize these tracks.
    Between my wife and I, we have 3 ipods, so it would be nice to get some support directly from Apple at this point. Sorry to vent, but my wife wants to kill me because she can't get the Smiths or the White Stripes, among many, many others on her ipod. Argh....

  • IMovie problems importing .mov files

    I just purchased a new iMac and a new camera (which claims it is Mac compatible and iMovie compatible). Unfortunately, for some reason iMovie is not letting me import any of the movies I create with the camera. I noticed this is a common problem, and the fix seems to be to download an earlier version of iMovies '06, but that seems crazy. Are there any other options to get my movies from my camera into iMovies?

    I just purchased a new iMac and a new camera (which claims it is Mac compatible and iMovie compatible).
    Compatible at which level? Muxed MPEG-1 files can be played by QT applications but cannot be converted by them to other compression formats without losing the audio and cannot be edited by them. Would you call this a compatible format or an incompatible format?
    Unfortunately, for some reason iMovie is not letting me import any of the movies I create with the camera. I noticed this is a common problem, and the fix seems to be to download an earlier version of iMovies '06, but that seems crazy.
    Unlike older versions of iMovie, iMovie '08 does not convert files as part of the "Finder" file importation process. Therefore, if the file you are trying to import cannot be edited "natively" (i.e., both audio and video content), it will not import them at all. On the other hand, iMovie '06 does convert files as part of the import process and it will automatically convert the content to an edit compatible compression format if it can.
    Are there any other options to get my movies from my camera into iMovies?
    Probably. It all depends on the compression format contained in the file. For instance, many Sony cameras make MPEG-1 video files. These files can be converted to an editable format (like DV, AIC, MJEPEG, MPEG-4, H.264, etc.) with a free third-party, MPEG-based application like MPEG Streamclip. Kodak MPEG4/µ-Law files become compatible if you simply pass through the video and convert the audio to AAC using the "Movie to MPEG-4" export option. Casio MJPEG/DVI ADPCM wil import if you simply extract the WAV audio, convert it AAC (or other compatible audio format), and re-merge it with your original video track.
    This is a Bug in iMovie8. I could NOT import .mov files from my Kodak easyshare Z612 camera into iMovie8 as all the .mov files were greyed out.
    Its not a bug if that is what it is supposed to do. If you check the compression format, you will likely find this camera also uses the MPEG4/µ-Law combination mentioned above. Just because the compressed data is in an MOV file container, does not mean it can be edited in that "native" compression format. If you check the audio format of your files imported to iMovie '06, you should find the µ-Law audio was changed to AAC. Whether done automatically by iMovie '06 or manually by you, the offending compression format had to be changed to one that could be edited before iMovie '08 would accept it.
    ADDED: Oops! Looks like you beat me to it, Winston.
