.mov files are now renamed

Why are my .mov files suddenly getting renamed when I add them to Keynote? They used to retain their original names. Very confusing now.

That's a well documented limitation of JavaFX. Mov files are simply not supported.

  • IMovie audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !

    iMovie 11  audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !
    I have created a project where I have a montage of photos and video clips edited together with music under. Some audio portions of the video files are being muted in some areas and those portions are being heard in another part of the project. This is not for all video clips only certain ones.
    The project plays fine in the timeline, but when I render the project thru iTunes or Media Browser, this is when the project goes corrupt.
    I tried detaching the Audio from the video clips and this somewhat worked, but the original problem still exists with certain audio still being heard where it's not supposed to be.

    I have a fix - or rather, a workaround.
    WARNING: It is lengthy, but still far better than starting a new project from scratch.
    I had this same issue and none of my transitions/clips were at custom speeds, nor did I have anything else weird going on. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do within iMovie to fix this, at least there wasn't for me. iMovie is BY FAR the buggiest software I have ever used and if you haven't already spent hours slaving away on a project, you are so much better off using just about anything else to edit your video.
    ...But let's assume you have already spent many hours working on your project and you don't want to start all over. Well then, you have at least one option.
    It's a pain in the neck, but it's infinitely better than restarting your project from scratch.
    This will require:
    A software called Soundflower (which is free) and some kind of audio editing software (I use Logic, but really any should work).
    1.) You're going to need to export your video with the messed up audio. Typically if you're audio is messing up, you're video is at least usually working just fine (at least it always does for me).
    2.) You're going to need to open that video in your audio software and import only the audio. If your software doesn't give you this option, then you're going to need to record the audio from your video using the audio software and Soundflower. You can find tutorials on how to do this, but it's honestly pretty straightforward once you start playing around with you Mac's audio I/O settings. Remember to have your computer's volume all the way up when doing this.
    3.) Watch/listen to your video and make notes of where the audio errors occur. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND writing down times too,  as they will be extremely helpful later.
    4.) Now were going to rip some working audio from the iMovie project itself. Go back into your iMovie project and only play back audio while in the edit window for this step. Do NOT play your project back in full screen.
    This part is key: if you try to play back your project from the beginning the audio will usually still mess up. So, what you're gonna have to do is go back on your edit window timeline right before these errors occur and play that specific clip back while recording this working audio with Soundflower and your audio software. Essentially we're only recording the parts of the audio where these errors occur, so try to do this in order if you can. Try to leave several seconds of audio in before the error - that way we can use it as reference when we construct our new audio track.
    5.) Now in your audio software you should have your original error-filled audio track and the new clips that we just captured. This part can be painstaking if you're not familiar with audio editing softwares, but as you'll learn, it's really not that hard.
    You're going to look at your original audio track and compare it to your new working audio clips. You should be able to notice where those new clips are supposed to go by looking at the identical (or close to identical) waveform shapes in your original audio track. The two should correspond with one another. If you don't understand what I mean right now, you will when you start playing around with the audio. This is why marking times is very important.
    Take your new clips and split them up if you haven't already, that way you can drag them around and edit them separately from one another. Essentially your going to line these new clips up with original and then replace the original parts with new ones.
    We need to get this as precise as possible, so start off by getting them as close as you can with your naked eye, and then use a zoom tool to zoom in as much as possible so that you can get them lined up PERFECTLY, or at least extremely close. In some softwares you can just drag these new clips on top of the old track, but most of the time you will need to actually cut out the old piece and replace it with the new one. In doing this, zoom in and make sure that you are NOT cutting out a bigger space than your new clip will fill - otherwise you will have small gaps in your audio.
    VERY IMPORTANT: Also make sure that this new audio track starts at the EXACT SAME time as your original - otherwise your new audio will be out of sync.
    I know this part can really suck if you're not used to audio editing, but at this point, there is little other choice.
    6.) Once you are done with this, export your newly pieced together audio track.
    7.) Now open iMovie and create a NEW project. Re-import the video that you exported earlier that has the messed up audio. This might take a while, so just be patient.
    8.) Then right click the clip and select "Detach Audio". This will do just that - allowing you to edit the audio separately from the video. Now delete this audio.
    9.) Now, import the new, perfect audio track that we just made and make sure that it starts at the start of the project. Make sure it's in sync and that everything works.
    Now just export your new video with the working audio and you should be done. Since we have given iMovie the audio with no editing actually being done in iMovie, it does not have to generate its own audio now and you should have absolutely no errors now - unless there is some that you forgot to take out earlier.
    YOU'RE FINALLY DONE!!!
    I know this entire process *****, but if you're that far into your project, there is little else that you can do. Now you've learned your lesson:
    DON'T USE IMOVIE EVER AGAIN.
    I hope this helped!

  • Imported MOV files are running choppy and I can't edit in the source window..anybody can you walk me thru how to fix?

    My MOV files are choppy in the SOURCE window where I'm trying to edit.  Please help....I have a camera that I use for that is drone footage no audio and it imports fine; never choppy easy to edit.  Now I'm trying to import video from my Lumix; it's bringing in audio that I don't need but the files are choppy and am unable to edit.  Have been watching tutorials but I can't seem to fix the problem still. 

    Thanks for your patience with me.  I have tried what you mentioned and dragging the clips in question to the new item icon.  Sometimes it works fine and others it gets hung up again.  However, I'm used to editing when the file is in the source area (upper left corner ...see file attached...screenshot).  When I do the task you mentioned it immediately puts the entire clip before I edit in the lower right and it doesn't appear i can edit as easily.  Does that make sense?
    I'm starting to think my computer isn't powerful enough?  ):

  • Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

    Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

    haben
    From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
    A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
    Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
    User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
    presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
    What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30)  or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
    a constant frame rate?
    Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
    Thank you.

    I have Lightroom 4.4 and a Nikon d800 with firmware upgrade 2.005. raw files are now since upgrade, unreadable. any plugins or advice? Thanks

    I select the images I want uploaded, NEF files, click the "IMPORT" button, process bar comes up and shows work in progress, but no progress. after about 2 minutes, dialogue box appears with message: "unable to import because the following files are unreadable: NEFxxxx, etc."

  • .mp4 and .mov files are just LARGE

    Sorry, without posting all the encoding details, is there an obvious reason why my .mp4 and .mov files are ~10x the size that they should be after AME? I'm talking about files that are 30mb .mp4's before and 300mb.mov afterwards. If you need details I'll post. Thanks.

    File size is determined primarily by only two factors - duration and bitrate.  The codec used, resolution, frame rate, etc. all have little or no effect on file size.
    Duration, and bitrate.  If you want a smaller file, one or the other of those has to be reduced.

  • New user- all my files are now read only -

    I am using a Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop with Windows XP  and my husband has a Dell Dimesion 4600 desktop.  Two weeks ago I installed a Linksys Compact Wireless-G USB adapter on his computer and then installed a WRT54G v.6 wireless router.  All is working fine for internet connection. Today I discovered all my files are now read only and even when I uncheck the read only box and click apply, then close the file, on re-opening it it is again read only.  Even the files on my external hard drive are now read only. 
    I am backtracking to see where a change was made that was unintended and the wireless router was the last thing I installed.  Is there a connection?  And if so, can someone help me make the necessary changes or tell me where to find out?
    I read through a lot of messages but did not immediately see this situation addressed. 
    Sandra

    seems to be an OS issue , because there is nothing on the router setting that could change the configuration on the computer....try System Restore....can't think of anything else at this point...

  • My Mac OS X v 10.6.8 used to read mpg movie files.  Now it doesn't.  What changed and how do I correct it?

    My Mac used to read mpg as well as mp4 movie files.  Now it does not recognize the .mpg movies.  What changed & how do I correct it?

    Try using the VLC Media Player.  It's free and can play just about any kind of media file or stream you can throw at it.

  • .Mov files are not playing on my Mac BookPro

    As of this week, I am unable to play my .mov files through Quick Time on my Mac Book Pro.  A small windo appears and states that sometype of conversion is occurring and eventually some of my movie files will play. 
    I am at work creating a .mov file through quick time and the file will not play.

    That's a well documented limitation of JavaFX. Mov files are simply not supported.

  • MOV files are not able to be synced into iPhone.

    Hi, there,
    Here is how I get this problem.
    I took the video on the iPhone 4, imported in Image Capture into a MacBook, so now in MacBook it is like IMG_xxxx.MOV.
    Now move this file into a Windows XP, where I sync my personal stuff is. So in iTune, under the Pictures tab, Include Video was checked, and after sync, the error message says:
    some video items were not copied into iPhone because these videos are not able to play on this iPhone.
    it was sync ok before, after I turned on iTuen and upgrade to 10.5.3.3 today, iTune for Windows.
    but the funny thing is, that MOV file was initially generated on this iPhone, how come it says it can not be playback on this iPhone?
    my iPhone is iPhone4, 5.0.1
    any suggestion/idea?
    Thanks a lot!

    Reinstall InDesign...

  • Old Quark files are now Unix Executable Files

    I made hundreds of archive CD's with Mac's running OS 9 back in 1990's. They contain Quark files and .tif's. I've referred back to these CD's many many times over the years with no problems. My new iMac has the intel processor. I pop an archive CD in and all the files (with no extensions like "tif" or ".qkd" or ".eps") are now "Unix Executable Files" that won't open.
    I simply add an extension to the images files (like ".tif") and they work. HOWEVER, it's not so easy with the Quark files. I add ".qkd" to the file name and it still remains a Unix file.
    I launch Quark and try to open the file through the finder and it doesn't work. I took an archive CD to a friends house whose on a G5 and the CD worked properly with no extensions needed to be added.
    So I figure the problem is with the Intel/PC based processor. I shouldn't have sold my old G5.
    One forum claimed that a program called "File Buddy" did the trick for him. Does anyone have any other ideas other than me buying a non-Intel Mac.
    I love our new iMacs but I need these archive CD's to work!
    Thanks

    I automatically run OnyX once a week for maintenance, but it didn't help this situation.
    Those chores won't reset the LaunchServices database. Go to the Maintenance heading and click on the Reset tab. Turn on the check box for "LaunchServices database" (all other check boxes off). Click the Reset radio button and then Execute. Restart your Mac.
    OS X will automatically rebuild the database according to the applications on your hard drive, giving preference to Apple applications as they would be when you first install OS X. So if you have the Acrobat Reader set up to open PDF files, you'll have to do that again as they will be set back to Preview.
    Actually it's .qxd not .qkd for Quark XPress file extensions.
    That's it! I knew .qkd was wrong, but Quark 6.x won't show you the old extensions when you save a file, and I couldn't remember it (been using InDesign steadily for a while now).

  • Backup files are now Unix Executable files

    I backed up my iPhone on my laptop (pc) but when i but transferred all my iPhone backup files to my iMac there was a couple of folders that are now Unix Executable files which are coincidentally are the same backups that I cant use to restore my iPhone without receiving an error message.
    Also, is there a program that I can use to read the history.mapsdata file? Thanks

  • Files are now organized how? Under O/S 4!!!!!!! Alpha, Numeric, Roulette?

    Under O/S 3 Files were organized by name, in alphabetical order, or that certainly seemed to the way it was done. Now on 0/S 4 there is no rhyme or reason in the way files are organized, what the ?l l e h lol
    null

    What files? Where?
    Are you referring to an App? Or something else?

  • What types of movie files are accepted on the ipad2?

    I am trying to trsnsfer movies to my itunes in order to transfer them onto my ipad2.
    But when I look for the movies on my itunes I don't see any listed.
    What types of movie file formats are accepted to transfer to the ipad2?

    The Videos app supports these formats (from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/) :
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    If you can't get them into your computer's iTunes then there are programs such as Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr) which might be able to convert them. If you can get them into your computer's iTunes but they then won't sync to the iPad, then you could try doing Advanced > Create iPad Version and see if that version syncs over.
