Problems importing .MOV files, no audio

i use a canon 60d and when i installed cs5.5 a year ago everything was fine importing .MOV files into the program.  now as of late when i import i only get video but no audio.  when i tried importing old files to troubleshoot the audio is there but now my files lately dont have any audio.  i know the audio is there because it plays the file smoothly in iphoto.  could the audio be on another channel that im not aware of?  did i change a setting on my canon where it doesnt pick up audio?  this doesnt make sense because as i said the audio is on there when i play the file in iphoto but not on when i import to cs 5.5.  Can anyone help?

can't help without more information.
take a look at this thread and follow the suggestions and we'll be able to do something for you.

    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.

  • Problems importing .mov file

    I am all of a sudden having problems importing .mov files from my camera in iPhoto '08. Can't get them to import in Image Capture either...On the import preview screen, all that comes up are empty "boxes". If I highlight one of the boxes, it shows that it is .mov file, the size of the file, etc. but if i try to do the import, iPhoto just locks up.

    iPhoto does not like very large movie files for importing directly from the camera. If you get it on the desktop you should be able to import it. I've imported 200MB movies with no problem.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Problem importing .mov file into Photoshop CS6

    I recently bought a canon 600D and I am trying to edit a 1080p video in photoshop CS6, however whenever it won't let me import the video. When I try to open it via File>open, it tells me 'Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file.' and when I try to drag and drop it it tells me 'Could not place the document ‘MVI_0710.MOV’ because no parser or file format can open the file.'
    I'm not a professional at all so I could be missing something very basic! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    What system are you on? Which PS version? 32bit or 64 bit? Sounds like the required qtserver/ dynamiclink stuff is not running and you are using the 64bit version.

  • Aspect Ratio Problems Importing mov files

    I am creating an imovie project that combines slideshow and video. The slideshows were produced in iPhoto06 as 16:9 and exported via iDVD into .mov format. They are 16:9 and play fine as widescreens in Quicktime. However, when imported into iMovieHD6, they are compacted into a squished 4:3. The iMovie project is set as widescreen (I've tried both widescreen NTSC and 720p) but this makes no difference when importing the widescreen clips. The 4:3 videos can appear with boxes on ether side, but I want the widescreen slideshows to be widescreen.

    @MRogovin - I wish I knew more about this exact issue so I could give you a solid answer. All I know is that I encountered a very similar issue recently.
    For reasons I won't explain, I was exporting a slideshow from iMovie '08. It would play just fine in 16:9. But every time I tried to import into iMovie HD 6, it would get squashed and there would be black pillarboxes on the left and right sides.
    Research revealed that the exported video "lost its 16:9 flag." I was hoping there would be a way to simply tick a box and restore the flag. And people suggested that MPEG Streamclip would do the trick. But every time I tried to restore the flag, it would go through another round of compression, and degrade the **** out of the video (despite my experimentation with 20 different settings) -- maybe there is a way to ONLY restore the flag.
    So, in the end, I had to export out of iMovie 08 without any compression. Only then did the importation process maintain the 16:9 aspect ratio. Of course, the un-compressed video slideshow was huge (8.5GB for 20 pictures).
    Since you're using iPhoto, you probably can't do as I did, since iPhoto slideshows cannot be exported un-compressed. Hopefully someone can chime in and explain how to maintain/restore a 16:9 anamorphic flag.

  • Problems importing movies into Keynote

    I have been using Keynote for a couple of years (now using Keynote 08 on a MacBook running 10.5.5). I recently started having problems importing movie files into my Keynote presentations. I usually just drag a .mov file and it plays with no problems, but lately when I do this it doesn't appear on the Keynote slide and when I play the presentation I get only audio w/ no video. I tried importing the files to quicktime and exporting them again to be sure they were in the correct format. This seemed to work a few times, but now that isn't working either. Any suggestions?

    I'm having what sounds like the same problem. I have Quick Time video from a Flip Cam that I want to use in a KeyNote presentation. I added the movie successfully at first, but when I opened the file to continue work, it appeared as a black box. It has sound, but no image. I can see it ok in the navigator. I've searched the forum for answers, but haven't found anything that works yet.
    Does the display setting have anything to do with this? One of the computers I work on has the display set to use with a LED projector. Thanks

  • How can I get iPhoto 9.5.1 (902.17) to import .mov files?

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro with 2 TB SDD running Mavericks that I bought 2 weeks ago.
    So far I have imported about 5,000 photo files into iPhoto 9.5.1 (902.17) plus about 25 videos as .mov files.
    But on today's import session, it stopped taking any more MOV's, giving the following error message:
    "The following file could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format." and it then it lists the .mov files.
    I tried rebuilding the LIbrary index, and have even tried creating a new Library and importing my smalles (12 Mb) .mov file to this new test library.
    But I keep getting the same error.
    I have the most recent version of all the software (i.e. no new updates are available.)
    What else can I do?

    I figured out a solution: The drive with the .mov files was a USB drive formatted as NTFS. iPhoto would import .JPG files from this OK, but would refuse to import .MOV files, giving the error noted above.
    I found that if I copied the files from the NTFS USB drive to an SD card or to the Macbook Pro's internal SDD, I could get iPhoto to import the .MOV files without any problem.
    Why does iPhoto 11 have a problem importing .MOV files from external USB drive formatted as NTFS, but no problem importing the exact same files from an SD-card formatted as FAT-16, or from a folder on the Macbook Pro's internal HD?

  • Importing mov files in premiere pro cs5

    I just installed Adobe Creative Suite 5 Master Collection on my machine and now, i have two issues.
    1. I do have the latest quicktime installed but when i try to import *.mov files with audio, only the audio is imported and works fine. the video isn't, but I dont get a dialogue error box.
         A). if the *.mov file has only video, i get a file import failure message saying " the file has no audio or video streams".
    2. the next prob is my dymanic linking does not work.
    Help please

    Im trying something and I hope you can help me. I have two computers, one dedicated to capturing a event and the other I have is dedicated to playback. They share the hard drive via a network. What I want to know is- is there a way for the dedicated playback machine to access a video file that is still being captured by the capturing machine and play back parts of it in a sequence??

    Zone Alarm, eh? I used to use that program, but it got in the way of almost everything that I did, that I canned it completely.
    Glad that removing ZA solved your issue.
    Personally, I find MOV Animation CODEC to be quite good, and use that for a lot of work. Jeff Bellune, here, like the Photo JPEG format, but I have not explored that.
    Good luck,

  • Problem to import MOV files

    Hi,
    I have a problem to import mov files from my hard disk (coming from a Casio Exelim ZR100 @ 1920x1080, 30 pic/sec. 44kHz, codec: H.264/AVC ). I tried different project setups - doesn`t work . I get a common failure message. MTS file import works...
    System Win 8
    Premiere Elements last version, all updates done
    Error Message:
    nase30

    Media import
    A Google Translate of your error message says that you are experiencing a generic importer error; consequently, not an editing nor exporting issue.
    If you are using the Casio ZR 100, the video involved would be characterized as
    1920 x 1080 @ 30 frames per second (progressive)
    Video compression = AVCHD (MPEG4 AVC/H.264)
    Audio compression = IMA-ADPCM (stereo)
    File Extension = .mov
    On the Premiere Elements side you have Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 8 (assumed 64 bit).
    I have downloaded one of these files from your camera brand/model from an online source.
    Windows 7 64 bit Premiere Elements 11. No importing or other problem with video or audio components of the file.
    Windows 8 64 bit Premiere Elements 11. No importing or other problem with video or audio components of the file.
    Based on my findings, I have no evidence to make a generalization that there is a problem with this Casio video and Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 64 bit or Windows 8 64 bit.
    So that leads us to look for other factors. Top of the list is the version of QuickTime that you have installed on your computer. (As John T. Smith has already asked and is awaiting a reply on that. If you have the latest version of QuickTime installed, then I would uninstall it and then reinstall it.
    What type of problem are you report
    "it worked before but not now"
    or
    "it never worked before"
    What might be interesting to look at. If you rename just the file extension of your Casio AVCHD.mov from .mov to .mts, .m2t, or .m2ts can you then import the problem file?
    We will be watching for your results.
    Thank you.

  • No video (black), audio only, from imported .mov files

    Bear with me while I explain the whole process to get where I am, which is that in FCE, I am importing .mov files and they are completely black, no video, just audio.  When I bring a clip into the timeline and try to render even a small clip, it is still black.
    I'm not well-versed in video so please bear with me:
    Steps:
    1.  I received large video files from a videographer
    2.  the large files could not be imported or played in FCE
    3.  downloaded HandBrake converter and began converting files.  Kept them at the same size, but they were then renamed .mov files.
    4.  When I open them in QuickTime, they are black - no video.  But when I see them on the drive and press spacebar in 'finder' to play them, I can see the video.
    5.  When I import them into FCE they are black - no video - just audio.
    FCE is currently set (in Easy Setup) to:  AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920-1080i60
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I tried converting one file to mp4 and it works fine in FCE, but this takes a long, long time to convert.
    thanks
    There is a 2nd issue that may relate to this:  I am trying to import JVC .m4v files and I am getting "File error 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unkown".  These files CAN be opened in Quicktime.
    FCE HD 4.0.1
    Mac OS 10.6.8

    I'm having similar, but slightlly different issues.
    I have been using FCE 4 on Mac OSX 10.7.5 with Quicktime 10.1 (501.29).
    I convert my footage in Mpeg Streamclip (GREAT free program) and set the files to the Apple Intermediate Codec.  This makes them work really well in my timeline and I don't have rendering issues or problems.
    So, my problem comes when I File/Export/Quictime Movie.
    The original file plays fine, but they're 2-3 gbs each, so I put them into Quicktime to convert them to a webfriendly size, but every single time they come out as an audio only file.  GRRRR!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Maybe I'm missing something stupid.
    Thanks so much for your help.
    Sincerely,
    Steve

  • Premiere CS6 won't import mov files, the message: "file has no video or audio streams" shows up instead. How can I import the files?

    Premiere CS6 won't import mov files, the message: "file has no video or audio streams" shows up instead. How can I import the files?

    MOV is a wrapper that can contain many different codecs. The message you get is indicative of a distribution codec inside the MOV wrapper. You may need to convert the material to an editable codec before importing.
