Best way to import video files into iMovie 10.0.8 of the Sony AS100v
Best way to imort videos without losing quality. My operating system is Yosemite 10.10.3
This device is not listed as compatible with iMovie 10 (iMovie support cameras - Apple Support)
so, you will probably need to remove the SD card in the device and plug it into an SD card reader (if there is not one already built-in to your Mac). You can then import the clips here. XAVC-S format used by the camera is supported by the latest version of iMovie (10.1.2) that requires El Capitan. I'm not sure whether 10.0.8 done. If this isn't the case, Google search will reveal a number of apps that claim to do a conversion.

It is a question of two parts:

My challenge here is to find the easiest way for the user so that my request to find this file once the user has downloaded on their own to their blackberry. Here are the options that I came with:
-use some kind of file Explorer so that the user can find the file and import it into my application
-force users to put their files in a specific directory (not as easy to use)
d ' other ideas?
(2) once I have the location of the input file, I wish to convey the contents of the file in my application. Someone at - it an example of this?

I bought the XT-10 Fugifilm. On the Adobe website, it indicates that Lightroom 6.1 and above is compatible with the file format of RAF. However, even after the update, LR won't recognize the files when I try to import them.
If someone has experienced this problem and found a solution?

Watch the video file. The last 3 letters represent the file format.
Windows Movie maker only supports the following video file formats:
Video files: .asf, .avi, .dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv
If yours is not on the above list, Movie Maker will have probel play.
In this case, you will have to google for a free video converter and change the format of your video file to WMV. WMV format is the most reliable format for Windows. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

What is the best way to import and work with mxf files in first CC2015?
I am trying to find the best way to import MXF files in first, like many people there seem to be issues.
I have already imported using first CS6 but I got cut short clips and audio dropouts. I decided to start over with CC2015 first, but this time I'd like to do things and once. Should I use prelude first?
I run on a Mac Pro (mid-2010)
OS X El Capitan version 10.11.1
All good, got sorted. I use the prelude.
Thank you!

Import Illustrator files into Flash
I'm using Flash CS4 and I want to import a * file WAS containing the shapes of the countries of Europe. The thing is that each country has a topping of points (blue or yellow) instead of a solid color. Here's a screenshot of my Illustrator screen:http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6983/testedd.jpg
When I import the AI in all these points are rasterized and everything looks like to crushed because I have more Flash vector points but rather in bitmaps. Example of the exported SWF file: http://takeab.us/SPL_embed/index_carte.html
(try and right click and zoom, you will see how it looks like)So what is the best way to import a file I and also retain the vector shapes? I tried with an EPS version and still no hope.
Select each country.
Object > expand, then Pathfinder > Crop.
You must ensure that the model is considered as vector objects. It will do for many more objects well.
Repeat for all countries.
Then copy > paste into Flash.

I'm looking for the best way to import pictures to my Mac. I currently use iMovie to import my images, because I come from the end of 'consumers users', but I'm looking for more professional way.
All of my cameras use SD cards and put all the images in a folder/quicktime file called "PRIVATE". It's all my research, AVCHD. When you import into iMovie, it seems what I push in 60 fps down to 29.97, that's why I was looking for another way. -Another question is also, when I import iMovie, which makes the 'Mac' images only until his change, that sucks. I need a good way to import images in case I ever need to use a Windows machine. iMovie puts the icon (AIC) on the files.
One of the cameras with which the footage was shot was a JVC GZ-HM35BUSD. (Some cheap Wal-Mart camcorder), but the other (same AVCHD Formate) images were shot using a really expensive sony camcorder. ($600). (Not sure of the name)
Thank you
David
I have directly from AVCHD editing all the time and it works fine for me on several systems, including an older macbook pro. I suggest avoiding if possible the transcoding. It takes a lot of time and if you don't do this right, you could surcompresse and a generational loss.
I would not go and delete unused items after I'm done editing, just to save space. Also, if it's projects, I don't care, I sometimes export final movie into something easily playable outside the Organization (like mov or mp4) and then delete all the media source. This is NOT recommended if you work in a professional manner. In this case, you must check in all. But for prosumers, there may be a lot of projects where you just want to put together a quick edit and then export it as a final movie for viewing online or elsewhere. In this case, you cannot hold on to all your layer to always source footage.
It really varies by user, but like I said, if you work professionally, or aspiring to, you'll need a way to archive and back up these archives. If you work from the band, then comes the labelling and store the tapes are an acceptable backup for the media associated with a certain project (of course, you will still need to save and save the project itself). But if you work from tapeless formats, then you will need several hard drives with lots of space, archive and everything back up. The good news is that hard drives get less expensive, bigger and stronger all the time. I had two lacie 1 TB hd for a few years now with zero problems (before there 2 lacie 500 GB for many years, also with 0 problems). But I'm still parnaoid that #1 will go while #2 is still in the Act of saving. Or they'll both go at the same time. Ouch.

Is fire Wire the only way to import video
and does make a difference in the quality of the resulting video?
I have:
Panasonic PV-GS500
Window 7 64 bit
Adobe Premiere Elements 10
Desktop Dell XPS 8300 (8 MB RAM)
I don't have a son of the late on the computer connection. I still managed to import my DV via USB (using various programs) and bought the PE10 due notice ("best editor"). I am able to import video, but the output quality is not as good as when I play just the DV on the computer. (I'm also struggling to learn the software - it's quite different than those I've used in the past (Roxio))
When I do a serarch for "fire wire" on support for windows, I get this message:
This version of Windows does not support using IEEE 1394 (FireWire, i.Link, or Lynx, also known under the name) for the Networking.
Does this mean that Windows 7 does not support IEEE 1394 at all? (I realize that this is probably not a question specifically for Adobe, but I don't know where else to ask about importing video files using wire fire vs USB.)
It is important, because I want to be able to import the old videos and 8mm video from an older camcorder.
If Fire Wire is a MUST for importing video, I'll have to find a way (when it exists) to install a FireWire card and whether or not Windows 7 64 bit is supported.
Frustrating, since I bought this computer for video editing. Any help/advice/commiseration will be greatly appreciated.

Linda,
Unfortunately, you have filed for the subforum tips & tricks, which is essentially a repository for articles about how to do things in the meadow. Maybe our tireless MOD, Steve Grisetti, going to it on the main forum, where many people see.
As for IEEE-1394, you would NOT use it for networking. More modern MoBo with an IEEE-1394 controller chip, but almost any card of FW 400 add-on will have those too. At least XP, Windows included support FW 400.
Today, cards add-on begin at about US $8 and go up to around US $60. What you get, as the price climbs, will be more ports, separate controller chips, ideally a / port and then possibly other ports, say USB. I like the SIIG cards, but there are also many other good brands.
With regard to the Capture, which is the process of importing data on mini-DV cassettes, it must be done via FW 400 (a IEEE-1394), to pre. However, other programs may offer alternatives, and as long as there is a DV - AVI file, things should be fine. These DV - AVI files and then just is imported into a project of ger.
Good luck

Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:Photos - bmp
Video - wmv or dv - avi

Can you import PDF files into other software?
I'm looking to see if there is a software that allows you to push data from a PDF file, software special. I use the accounting software and it would save my company a lot of time if our PDF invoices could be pushed into Quickbooks or converted in order to enter into our system without having to type in it.
any suggestions?
The previous answer is just a little - if everyone uses the same format, etc etc, it would be fairly simple to import PDF files into other software. But alas, everyone sends a different format.
But there are there tools that work well. But they have limits. The tools work best if you have some layouts that you want to import (IE a known provider set). So, you need a reasonable volume of each - if not then just enter the data will be more effective.
Try looking at ChimpKey who do a good job of importing a PDF file. He does this by converting the PDF to XML, Excel, CSV etc. which will import properly in various popular software. If you have a good amount of data entry, then this approach certainly you will save time and money.

What is the best way to import my address and e-mail of Pegasus in Thunderbird?
I use Windows 7 x 64. I have a number of files and many electronic addresses in the Pegasus Mail client. I'm looking to migrate to Thunderbird. Can you tell me the best way to move my files to Thunderbird?
Thank you
Allen HillFor your address books, can export you to a format such as CSV?
To move e-mail messages, the cleaner is to use the IMAP protocol. Then your new client look just the same files you had in Pegasus.
Unfortunately, email clients tend to use their own systems of storage of e-mail owner and there is no commonly used standards that could help to transfer between clients. If you can export files in mbox format, then Thunderbird can use.

Hello! Until recently, I've been using my Mac OS X for personal use. Internet and photos about. Now, I have a business and am trying to learn to fully use my laptop in support of my business. I downloaded the El Capitan and were a bit lost because, as I'm learning. I just bought an IPAD PRO and learn how to use this as well. I just downloaded via ITunes a few books that I read and request same "El Capitan for Dummies" library to read.
What is the best way to back up files? Should I get an external hard drive? If so, which should I expect? Recently, I signed up for the $0.99 per month ICLOUD and thought that it is a return to my files (files containing work etc.) but think that this is not the case after a lot of research?
Please advise! Thank you!
For your iPad Pro, you can use iCloud for make backups-> How to back up your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch - Apple Support
For your Mac, iCloud Drive allows you to store all the files you want on iCloud outside your peripheral storage space, so that you can access your files on all devices. However, you cannot make a backup of your Mac on iCloud (it would take a lot of time and storage), so in this case, you will need to get an external drive. The easiest way is to make backups of your files with Time Machine, included in OS X-> use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support
Time Machine makes automatic backups of everything on your OS X partition, so you won't have to worry about manual backups. There are also other third party applications and services to make backups too.
