Video (.avi and .mov) from iPhoto 08 to iPhone

How do I get my videos from iPhoto '08 (.mov and .avi) to my iPhone?

Hello JASCHI,
iPhoto doesn't really have the means to get movies into an iTunes format. iMovie 8, on the other hand, does have this ability.
If you can open the movie file in iMovie, from the Share Menu, you can send an iPhone ready copy directly to iTunes. You can find more information on the iMovie support page:

Good luck,
Charles H.

    How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone?  I synced the devices and noticed that some photos and movies on my laptop iPhoto were not transferred to my iPhone?

    I am not sure, which answer you found - so just in case:
    If you sync your iPhone with the iPhoto library, the photos will only stay on the iPhone until the next sync and they are not in the Camera Roll. If you transfer using the Photo Stream, they will only be vidsible in the stream, until they are replaced in iCloud by newer content.
    So, if you want to transfer the photos permanently, save them to the Camera Roll.

  • Can't sync movie from iPhoto to iPhone

    I tried to find a discussion of this, but couldn't see an answer. (Maybe there isn't one.)
    I have some AVI movies in iPhoto. I'd like to sync them to my iPhone. I think I did so many months ago, but can't replicate now.
    I tried dragging from iPhoto to iTunes. No luck. I tried dragging to "movies': no luck. I tried exporting from iPhoto: it seemed to work, but couldn't find the movie on iTunes.

    I think the movies have to be able to play in iTunes before you can view them on an iPhone.
    AVI is just a "wrapper" that can contain movies with many different codecs. Not all of them are viewable in iTunes. Many of the AVI's that I get can't play in Quicktime and I use VLC and I've added Perian and Flip4Mac to be able to play them at all. These codecs aren't available on the iPhone so the movies have to be in just the right format to work.
    There are many programs (looks like dozens) that can convert AVI's to be playable in iTunes. There are companies like Aimersoft, Xilisoft that sell programs that will do all sorts of conversions and optimizations for iPod/iPhone video.
    Here's a tutorial that uses Free methods: http://news.metaparadigma.de/?p=48
    Handbrake (free) is also supposed to be good for the job, but I don't use it anymore: http://handbrake.fr/
    Hope this helps.

  • HT4363 How do you put music and movies from iPad to iPhone?

    How do I put all of my movies and music from my iPad 2 to my iPhone 4s?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You may well be simply able to redownload them depending on your location, otherwise you will have to transfer them to iTunes on a computer and then to the phone from iTunes.

  • How do I upload / sync movie from iPhoto to iPhone in Photos folder

    I shot a short clip from my digital camera and want to share it with family through Whatsapp on my iPhone 3GS.
    I downloaded the movie (.AVI extension) to iPhoto on my Macbook Pro, saved a copy on the Desktop; and using Quicktime's export feature, was able to transfer a .m4v version of the video on the 'Videos' folder of iOS. However, since Whatsapp picks up content only from the 'Photos' app, I was looking for a mechanism through which the video (preferably .AVI format) can be transfered to the 'Photos' app.
    Additionally, I created a separate album on iPhoto containing just this clip. Next I tried to sync this album to my iPhone with the 'include videos' checkbox ticked, but it does not copy the video to Photos on iPhone (tried doing the same with some photos and it is working just fine).
    Request if someone can provide an easy solution for this.
    Regards,
    Prashrash.
    P.S.: Since I am a newbie, apologize in advance for any forum rules that I might have broken. Happy to be corrected / informed on the same.
    BTW, have done a basic search on the articles existing in the forums to try and find an answer before posting my question. Mostly have seen many nays on older / archived posts, and hence am posting afresh once again in the hope that with the newer versions of iPhoto / iTunes, something has hopefully changed that will make my task easy! <fingers crossed>

    Hello prashrash
    Because when you sync a video that you have converted, it will want to go in the Videos app. A way to get around that is to email the video to yourself if the video size is small enough to send through email. Once you have received it you should be able to save it to your Camera Roll and then be able to access like you normally would.
    Save a photo or video you received in Mail.

  • Image Capture and MP4 and MOV with iPhoto

    Using Image Capture, I tried to transfer pictures and movies (MP4 and MOV) from my iPad 3 to iPhoto on my iMac. Things were looking good, images and movies were transfering fine, iPhoto had opened with all of them in a new event. I was able to play both MP4 and MOV from iPhoto. Then I quit iPhoto and Image Capture and launch iPhoto again and try to play the movies that I just imported, iPhoto says it can't find them. It seems that it can't find them if Image Capture is not running !? Although the pictures are fine. Can somebody help me ? Thanks for the help.

    I needed that option off because I want to keep them only on my NAS, so PC users can still accesses them when needed. I didn't want different sources, only on that I know is "the actual source".
    Now, I did import them on Images directory using Image Capture and it worked. Then I moved them to my NAS.
    But I just realized that the iPad appears in iPhoto and that I can import them into iPhoto directly ! It works fine, meaning that if I disconnect the iPad from the iMac, the movies play just fine. The initial setup was to launch Image Capture when the iPad is connected to the iMac. I disabled it. I plan to use the import from iPhoto instead.
    But I still need to keep those pictures and movies on the NAS as well. It means that I will need to export them on the NAS eachtime.
    Thanks for your help, it really helped.

    I don't see an issue, but if you mean why didn't you get most of your memory back you need to see what else is using storage. Go to Settings/General/Usage. Wait a bit for it to calculate storage allocation, then when it finishes you can see how much storage each app uses.

  • How do I get music videos, tv shows, and movies from my iTunes onto my iPod touch?

    I just bought the 32 G iPod touch bc I read online that the 8G holds 2000 songs plus other stuff and the 32G holds 8000 songs plus more. I have 3000 songs on my iTunes and for some reason it said it won't hold more than 2600. Also I can't figure out to put the music videos, tv shows, and movies from my iTunes synced onto my iPod touch. Help?

    The advertised number of songs an iPod can hold is based on set factors such as the encoding for each song and the length for each song.
    Transferring movies is selected under the Movies tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.
    Transferring TV Shows is selected under the TV Shows tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.
    Include Music Videos is selected under the Music tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.

  • What is the best way to back up photos and videos to a dvd from iPhoto, not in iPhoto format but just in jpeg format to access on either windows or mac

    what is the best way to back up photos and videos to a dvd from iPhoto, not in iPhoto format but just in jpeg format to access on either windows or mac

    When you export the videos out of iPhoto be sure to select Kind = Original.  Otherwise you'll just get an image file of the first frame of the video.

  • Move from iPhoto '11 to Lightroom using PS Elements to keep Events and Albums

    I am trying to move from iPhoto '11 to Lightroom by using PS Elements as a go-between to keep events and album but it doesn't appear that the option to keep events and albums is possible using iPhoto '11.  However, the instructions for coming from iPhoto '09 show that option.  Is there any way to do this?

    I’m not sure about that routine. I’m not even sure events are transferrable and there of lots of things that could go wrong. You may want to think about importing your masters directly into Ligtroom. From finder you need to be in Pictures (not the application) and control-click on iPhoto Library.
    iPhoto will have created duplicates and hidden your originals. You need to find your masters from the iPhoto Library - Right-Click and select “Show Package Contents”
    Older versions of iPhoto uses an Originals folder and in later versions; Masters. It’s not a good idea to go messing with the structure as it could corrupt the iPhoto Library. Apple has made this structure for good reason; so that you can always use the revert command to go back to an original, even if you have edited in iPhoto using cropping or red eye removal, for example.
    However, if you have no further use for iPhoto, you could consider moving your originals/masters to a new folder structure (iPhoto automatically creates dated sub-folders) and then importing to Lightroom. Alternatively if you still need iPhoto, export duplicates to the desktop and bring those into Lightroom. That will keep iPhoto safe.
    I do actually use iPhoto for creating events which can then be used to make cool slideshows within iPhoto. However Lightroom is my main management and photo editing tool and I have created an export pre-set for sending jpegs into iPhoto. I have even dragged the iPhoto Library off the hard drive to an external hard drive – but that means keeping it connected when using iPhoto.

  • Hello..Does anyone in this community know what the following error code indicates   0x8002006E   I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.

    I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.    Thanks for any help you can offer,

    Thanks for your reply:
    I did find an error log related to the error code and tried all suggestions on the list of recommendations, still no luck            
    I definitely am running OS X10.5.8 (hopefully will be updating later on this month)
    I tried several brand new discs from the same box, still no luck.
    My last option is to go out and try a different brand, guess I'll go with Verbatim this time but I think I'll poke around some more before buying 20 more new discs.

    As  to iPhoto
    Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
