Transfer .mov files to iTunes?

Hi!  I was hoping someone could help me out.  I have some movies I created a while back with iDVD.  The finished file is a .mov file and I would like to now put this in iTunes so I can sync it with my iPhone and iPad to watch the movies I created.  I can't seem to figure out how to get those files into iTunes so I can sync them with my devices and play them on my mobile devices.   Anyone have any ideas or figured this out?

Do you mean iMovie?
iDVD takes video (including .mov) and converts it to Video_TS format on a playable DVD.
If you have a .mov, then File > Add to library in iTunes.
Or if it is in iMovie, menu Sharing > Send to iTunes.

  • IPod touch can't synch .mov files with iTunes.

    My iPod touch can't synch .mov files with iTunes. The error message says that the files were not transfered because they can't be read on my device.  I'm not able to transfer any mp4 files, either.  These are my own short animations, small files (under 2MB). Home sharing is on.  I'm trying to synch with the latest version of iTunes on a Windows 7 64-bit machine.  Thanks.

    How do I transfer movies from my iTunes account on my computer to my ipad2

    If the films are on your computer's iTunes then connect your iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of iTunes under 'Devices' - and you should then be able to use the Films/Movies tab on the right-hand side to select which of the films to sync to the Videos app on the iPad

  • Converting MOV file to iTunes file

    On my MacBook Pro, I have been converting MOV files to iTunes files. Suddenly, however, this won't work. I get the following message: Can’t make file "Macintosh HD:private:var:folders:Al:AlJFXwbEEgqKI3EA0xH26
    TI:-Tmp- How can I fix this?

    With the MOV file on my desktop, I click it open, then click on the icon that is a square with an arrow coming out of it.  This gives me the option to convert the file so it can be viewable on iTunes, Mobile me gallery, or Youtube. If I chose iTunes, previous MOV files I have converted this way appear to have been converted to m4v files for iPhone or iPod.
    Now when I click on the iTunes option, I get the "Can't make file" message.

  • Can't upload .mov files to iTunes anymore

    Hi!  I don't know if this just started when I upgraded to Lion and did all of the recent updates to iTunes, and added iCloud, etc, but suddenly I can't drag .mov files into iTunes like I used to be able to do. I can't add them with the Add To Library menu either. Because of this I can't put them on my iPad. Is anyone else having this problem?  Is there a fix?  TIA!

    Actually, I can't open anything in quicktime anymore. I've tried opening avis, mov, mp4 and m4a files... all give the same error message and number. I've reinstalled both qt and itunes but no luck.

    How can I transfer .mov files to my iPad?

    If it's on a SD card in your camera, you cau use the camera connection kit, either by connecting the camera or inserting the SD card.
    If it's on your computer, you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • How to transfer ipod files to itunes

    I'm sorry if this has already been posted or is in the wrong category. Recently I had to do a system recovery and unfortunately I didn't know about the backup in iTunes. So now all my music files are gone. I'm afraid to sync my ipod because all the files might be gone from my ipod and then I would have to download everything all over again. Is there any way to transfer ipod files to iTunes? I've tried to use programs but 2 of them can't detect my ipod and one will only do the first 5 files. Please and Thank you.

    First of all, do not sync your iPod with iTunes until you have recovered everything from it or you'll erase everything.
    Open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically" and choose Ok. Then connect your iPod.
    iTunes will only give you the option to copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    Purchased applications can be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
    For everything else (music from CDs etc.) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. Make sure the ones you have looked at are compatible with the iPod Touch, if that compatibility isn't specified that would explain any that don't recognise the device. Also, unless the program is completely free, they usually only allow you to transfer a limited number of tracks to demonstrate their capabilities, to do more you need to purchase a license for the program.
    A selection of iPod/iPhone to iTunes utilities:
    Senuti Mac Only (iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    One last thing, if your iPod is set to sync automatically you need to take care connecting to an empty iTunes. Open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically" and choose Ok before connecting your device.
    I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • Transfer AVI movie file to Itunes to upload to Ipod Touch

    Hi
    Just got Ipod touch and have some movies/tv shows on desktop that I want to put to my ipod. Tried the Save file to library on itunes but nothing happens. Does anyone know how I can put these AVI files to my ipod touch.
    Simple instructions appreciated, first ipod so still learning the ropes.
    Ta Urs

    You need to find Windows software to convert .avi to .mp4 or .mov, then import that file into iTunes, then sync it.

  • How can I transfer mov files from my iphone4 to PC without corrupting them?

    I transferred my photos and videos from my iphone4 to my PC to make more room on my phone. After deleting the files from my phone, I realized that the mov files are corrupted. The videos mostly show grey blotches with no sound. I have tried syncing the files from iTunes, tried transferring them with Nikon photo/video transfer software, Canon transfer software, and Corel photo transfer software. Nothing seems to work. I have the latest version of QuickTime [7.6.9 (1680.9)] running on Windows Vista.
    Also, can anyone recommend software for recovering .mov files? There are a lot of them that are affected.
    The jpgs transferred fine.
    Thank you!

    Yes, I have tried. All smaller videos and photos transfer fine. It is only with videos > 500 MB that get created on Windows with 0 (zero) size (the file name gets created on windows but with 0 Bytes).
    Let me add that I do not see the "DCIM" option from Windows Explorer. I only see the folder under Scanner and Cameras.
    Anything I need to do to see "DCIM"? I do see DCIM when I connect my iPhone 4 to the same computer, but not the iPAD.
    Thanks

  • How do I transfer my files from iTunes to WindowsXP Pro or visa versa?

    I'd like to be able to figure out how to transfer music files out of iTunes to Windows Media, and from Windows media to itunes.
    I've got a bunch of lecutures in both, but both don't do what I need them to do. In a perfectworld, I'd be able to get iTunes to sync to my mp3 player and give Windows Meda Player a swift kick into the ether where it belongs!!!
    It appears there was a little box entitled "write protect" that was clicked over the last few years as I was ripping my lectures on to Windows Media Player that now won't let me move those files much of anywhere.
    Could someone please help me figure this out?
    Thanks!

    If the Copy protect music option was selected in your WMP Rip Music settings, your only alternative is probably going to be burning the files affected as Audio CD's, uncheck the Copy protect music option and then reimport the CD into iTunes - or import it directly into iTunes.
    If the files currently in iTunes are .mp3's, you can just copy them to a location WMP can access them. If they're .m4a files, though, you will have to convert them to .mp3's first.

  • Cannot delete movie file from iTunes

    After converting movie file via Quicktime and adding it to the iTunes library, I am not able to remove it anymore. If you try to delete it, it crashes iTunes and after that all desktop icons are frozen. The movie does not play in iTunes, you cannot edit its info without crashing iTunes either. Movie plays in preview pane in Finder....
    Is there any other way to remove the file from iTunes?

    Try deleting the file without iTunes running.
    When you next open iTunes it should then be marked as a missing file and you should be able to delete the entry from iTunes.
    Hope this works
    Regards,

    Using iTunes 10.5
    Can anyone help me with this?

    Itunes only accepts MP4, M4V and MOV formats.  You will have to get a third party Video converter to convert AVI to Apple format.
