Syncing iPhone video to iMovie

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to sync video from my iPhone to iMovie? Anything can help. Thanks

This is not supported at the present time, which isn't a sync process. This is an import process.
As with a digital camera that supports capturing photos and videos, you can use iPhoto to import photos and videos that were captured by the iPhone. Since all iLife applications are integrated, you should be able to use iMovie to access the video in iPhoto.

  • IPhone video to iMovie HD is distorted

    When I upload video shot on my iPhone 3Gs into iMovie HD it seems the aspect ratio is distorted. It imports just fine, and audio is fine too, it's just that the ratio is too wide. People (actually all images) look fine on the iPhone, but appear shorter and wider in iMovie. Solutions anyone?

    In the future, you can import directly into iMovie. If the movie is still on your phone's Camera Roll, you can still do this. Attach the phone via USB cable and if iPhoto opens, close it down. Then in iMovie, click FILE/IMPORT FROM CAMERA.
    If it is in iPHoto, there should be an iPhoto Event listed among the Events in iMovie. This movie should be in there.

  • Audio not in sync with video in imovie 08 version 7.1.1

    I am importing many Hi 8 tapes using a Sony video walkman GV-D800 thru a firewire 400 port on my Macbook pro, when I play it back in imovie the audio/voice is not in sync with the lip movement of the people in the video, there is a 1-3 second delay. If I play back the same video I captured using QuickTime Player there are no sync problems? I am new at this so what am I doing wrong?
    BTW. I also imported HDV using my HDV camera and there are no sync problems at all. Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Is this delay present on your exports or is it merely when previewing in imovie.

  • Cannot Sync iPhone Video back to iPhone

    Alright, so I took some video on my iPhone 3GS. As part of my normal archiving process, I have all photos and videos from the iPhone automatically imported into a specific album ("iPhone Album") in Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 upon connecting my iPhone to my PC.
    When the importing is done, I have it set up to automatically delete the pictures out of the Camera Roll (since I now have a copy of them in Elements).
    Then, when I sync via iTunes, I have it setup to sync the iPhone Album back to the iPhone.
    The net effect of this is to move all of the Camera Roll pictures and video to the "iPhone Album" where it joins some pictures that come from elsewhere and exists in duplicate -- one on the iPhone one in Elements.
    The problem is that when you sync a PSE Album to the iPhone it DOES NOT sync videos contained in that album -- EVEN VIDEOS ORIGINALLY TAKEN WITH THE IPHONE.
    Any workarounds for this? I'm assuming this is a bug and that it's not actually intended to work this way, correct?
    Thanks!

    I don't think this is a bug - I think it's by design. The iPhone has always synced video via iTunes to the iPod app - that's the model. And it's always stored anything captured with the camera to the Photos app.
    I agree it's illogical (and annoying) that, on the phone, video captures got to the Photos app. Maybe there should be a separate Videos app to make more sense.
    I'm not defending it - simply saying that it probably isn't a bug

  • How to sync iPhone video back from Mac to iPhone?

    I synced a number of iPhone recorded videos to my iMac and deleted them from my iPhone. I now want to put some of them back on my iPhone. I made a playlist in iPhoto, dragged the videos into it and tried to sync that playlist back to my iPhone, but neither the list or the videos in it made it back to the iPhone.
    Does anyone know how to get videos back to the iPhone again?
    thanks,
    Erik

    You can use the iTunes Photos setup pane to sync photos and videos (Mac only, iTunes 9 or later required) back to the Photos application on iPhone. I added my video to the album I sync to my phone.
    Be sure to check "Include videos".

  • IPhone video and iMovie

    How do I move video taken on my iPhone and get it into iMovie? The video I have is currently in iPhoto.

    same way you get photos into imovie from iphoto.
    You can use the help feature in imovie to find these answers.
    There is a media option in imovie. It will allow you to pull iphoto media into imovie.

  • Getting iphone videos to imovie?

    The videos I've taken on my iphone, then transferred to my computer used to be uploaded onto imovie every time I opened imovie.  But not any longer.  They are only showing in iphoto.  Am I doing something wrong, or is this no longer possible?

    I just opened imovie and they were finally there!  Yes, in the events library in iphoto videos.  The last uploaded was from september, until just now!  I have no idea what happened, but when I opened imovie this time it took a minute for the videos to be loaded into imovie, like it did in the past.  And they are all there! 
    Thanks for responding!

  • HT4910 iCloud sync iPhone video

    I thought my iphone 4S videos would sync automatically with icloud and my mac book pro...how do I do this?

    I just found the page mentioning how to transfer video. It wasn't on this site (explaining why I couldn't find it), but it only relates to video purchases from iTunes.

  • Possible to rotate iPhone video in iMovie?

    I handed my phone to a friend to take a short video of her daughter and on importing found the video was rotated.
    Is there a way of rotating the video to correct this in iMovie?  TIA

    Yes you can.  Assuming you are using iMovie 10. see:
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov6dae53dfd
    You do it on clips after putting them in a project timeline

  • IPhone video and iMovie - .mov format?

    OK, so I have a 3GS and an iMac, and I'm trying to create an iMovie using video that I recorded on the phone. I finally was able to import the data into iPhoto and it's working fine there (showing up as .mov format), but just as a passive - I can't do anything with it in iPhoto, including play it. I want to import it to iMovie but it won't let me. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it? Thanks!

    I tried that, but when I did, it wouldn't let me open anything at all in iPhoto - it was greyed out as an option. I could move the files to my desktop and see if that works. BRB.
    ETA: It seems to be generating the thumbnails now, since I moved the files to the desktop. Weird. Hopefully it'll continue to behave.
    Thanks for your help, guys!

  • Error importing iphone video to imovie

    I am trying to import iphone 4 video to iPhoto on MBP but getting an error.  Is there a video minimum time?  I'm importing videos 1 at a time, videos are about 3 to 12 minutes long.  All have .mov extension.  Getting an error.  What am I not doing correctly?

    I'm having a similar issue. I imported a video from my iPhone to my iMac. The preview of the video imported is perfect. Views same as on iPhone. However, when I select the clip for a "New Project" then the video is all messed up. I'd call it a cross from squished, to cropped to enlarged. Definitely not the same as what I imported and see in the original strip in the Event Window. Weird. 

  • HT5899 How can I burn iPhone video to DVD to view on a TV please?

    I have an iMac Mountain lion and 4S iPhone.  I have imported my iPhone video into iMovies but am unable to burn video to a DVD that will play on a TV (it will only play on a computer). Can any one help please?

    iMovie is not DVD authoring software. You need to use a professional DVD authoring software like iDVD (Apple discarded it on new Macs in the past 2-3 years, if you dont have it, give another alternative AppGeeker DVD Creator here a whirl) to burn and create a playable DVD that can be played on an ordinary DVD player.

  • MPEG4 video from imovie is sluggish and audio out of sync

    Hi y'all,
    I am new to this. So I need some hand holding here. I am working with video that was exported in MPEG4 video from imovie on a mac.
    The Camera I used is a Sony FX7 HD camera with SD tape.
    So Now I am trying to edit the video using Premiere Pro CS3 creative suite.
    Import into CS3 is fine. Playing the imported video in the source monitor is fine as well. All looks well.
    However, here are the challenges I am having:
    1. When I try to play it in the Program monitor its very sluggish. Audio plays fine but picture lags behind.
    2. And once I edit the the video and try to export it as flash video or as a windows media, the video and audio are out of sync.
    The video is choppy as well.
    Details: source video is 720x480 and trying to export to 320x240
    My project details are:
    DV-NTSC standard 48khz
    Video is 10 min long

    OK, not my choice of workflows, but... I assume that the MP4's are H.264 encoded. There are many of these. Three common ones are Lead, MainConcept and Apple. Some find that one works better than the others. These are not the ONLY versions, but are common. You might want to explore others, depending on which one you have installed. G-Spot can tell you which you have.
    Next, you can Render your Timeline, to get things as smooth as possible.
    Note that the MP4 files are heavily compressed already. Quality has been lost, and there is nothing that can be done about that. When you Export to, say DVD, you will recompress that material, and loose even more.
    In the future, have your Mac-person do the Capture to .MOV [Animation CODEC]. Or, do it yourself to DV-AVI Type II w/ 48KHz 16-bit PCM/WAV Audio.
    Not sure of any other ways to get the MP4's playing more smoothly. Much will depend on both your CPU and on your system's I/O sub-system, i.e. your HDD's, their size, speed, controller type and how they are utilized.
    Good luck,

  • I recently purchased a movie (Prometheus) on my computer through iTunes and every time I try to put it on my iPhone, it fails. How can I successfully sync this video? Mind you, every other file syncs flawlessly.

    I recently purchased a movie (Prometheus) on my computer through iTunes and every time I try to put it on my iPhone, it fails. How can I successfully sync this video? Mind you, every other file syncs flawlessly.

    Can you connect to a wifi source on the device? Enable wifi in settings on the device itself. If you don't have wifi at home, there may be a local hotspot you can use for this.
    The reason this happens is carriers don't want people downloading huge files that would slow their network as well as eat up your data plan.
