Import a file in MovieMaker in Vista 6.0 AVI says codec not installed not. What codec install for vista 6.0?

I converted a DVD file into an AVI file using software streamclip I downloaded specifically for windows. I saved the AVI file on an external hard drive - it plays, it is fine. When I try to import mm it said codec required 2 play is not installed. So instead of that, I installed Windows MovieMaker Live Movie and does not include when I try to import the AVI file with this version it says file might not be in a MM format or file is corrupted (which it isn't).

What version of Movie Maker should I use (with Vista) and how to know which version or type of codec, I have in my computer and then most recent codec that I have to install (I saw the WM9 codec on your website package). Help

    Hello

    If you are worried about it being a system file, try this:

    Run the sfc/scannow command.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.

    Everything simply because a video playing in Windows Media Player is
    no guarantee that it will be compatible with Movie Maker.

    MPEG files are very problematic in Movie Maker... and
    even if you manage to import, it would probably be
    have problems when you try to save a movie.

    The best would be to convert files to WMV format
    before you import into the machine to Moaiv.

    There are many converters to retail and freeware
    available on the net...

    The following freeware converter is an example.

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)
    (* Read * all * the installation screens... it)
    may be a few items you want to unmark *)

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    When you import video files into Movie maker I get this message: cannot be imported. An interface has too many methods to fire events from. Any ideas?

  • No sound on the imported .mov files

    Since WMP on Vista does not recognize the .mov file formats I had Dell technical support install pack of 495 s K-lite codec. Now I can open and read files .mov (imported from a digital camera KODAK Z710), but there is no sound. The speakers are very well, all the other videos from the internet do not have an audio problem, nor play CD and DVD have audio problems. Only files .mov that came from my camera do not play sound. Dell support diagnosed my computer and it works perfectly diagnosed. They said that it is a problem of 3rd party. I spoke in support of KODAK, but they can not help me with a computer problem. BTW, his play on the camera itself.

    Windows Media Player is not a good choice to play .mov files.

    The free VLC Media Player can also be worth a try.

    Hi sonalnj,

    I understand that you cannot synchronize your iPhone as iTunes is requested it must be updated. I can help you with that.

    According to the technical specifications for a 6 s iPhone, you need a Mac running OS X v10.8.5 or later version with iTunes 12.3 or later. Because you are on OS X 10.6.8 your version of iTunes is up to date with this OS.

    iPhone 6 s Tech Specs
    http://www.Apple.com/iPhone-6s/specs/

    Now to fix that, you need to update your Mac OS X 10.8.5 Mountain Lion or OS X 10.11 El Capitan. If you want to go to the Mountain Lion, you can do it with the first link below. The cost will be $19.99 and a code will be delivered to you if you can download it via the Mac App Store. Once you have upgraded, be sure to make all software updates to go with him to get the latest version of iTunes.

    OS X Lion mountain
    http://www.Apple.com/shop/product/D6377Z/A/OS-x-mountain-lion

    Now the other option is to move to OS X 10.11 El Capitan, and is a free update that you can do right in the Mac App Store, if you meet the system requirements. Take a look at the following article for more details on how to do it.

    iOS9 on a mobile device requires iTunes 12.3 or higher, which in turn requires a computer running OSX 10.8.5 or higher.  Update of the system only checks the updates for the current version of the system you run, but that itself can be updated.  It may or may not be possible to upgrade your computer to the system requirements. Find your computer on the web site of http://www.everymac.com model and near the bottom of the specification of the system section, he will tell what versions of the operating system, it is able to run. If you can not run a newer system, you will not be able to sync this phone to your current computer. If she can run 10.8.5 or higher, you can either buy a download for Apple OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion code online, or you can try to install the free El Capitan OSX 10.11.  El Capitan can run slower on older machines and require the additional purchase of RAM.  Making a big jump in versions of system is also more likely to affect the old software.

    You can export your IE Favorites and then import this file into Firefox. Works better than the 'import', IMO.

    then in Firefox:

    I have upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 - Favorites IE installs fine but not the bookmarks of Fire Fox. What the name and the location was under Vista so I can search the hard drive for them. Yes I should have saved them but until it's too late for that now.

    They are stored in a file called places.sqlite in the profile folder. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox for more details about the location of the profile folder

    The profile folder is normally hidden, make sure you have configured Windows to display the hidden files and folders.

  • iTunes not systematically renaming imported MP3 files

    I am running iTunes 12.3.2 on multiple systems (all Windows 10, both 32 - and 64-bit).  I noticed some strange behavior when adding media mp3 Amazon-bought to my iTunes library.  Since I was the copy... Keep organized... options and enabled in Edit > preferences > advanced the expected result is that iTunes should rename files as they are copied, depending on the model:

    • .MP3 (single disc albums)
    • - (multi disc albums) .mp3

    My standard practice is, if necessary, to update the metadata of files mp3 apart from iTunes using Foobar 2000 (since it gives a lot better in bulk tools than iTunes edition), generally I do changes such as:

    • correction of names of artist, Album and the track if they do not correspond to my standard conventions (or are simply not true)
    • adjusting artist award so that securities presenting artists invited in the value of the artist rather than added on behalf of the track
    • removing the irritants suffixes like '(Live)","(Remastered)","(version Album) "than Amazon / media companies add to their track provided metadata"
    • check and if necessary change the mp3 version to be marking ID3v2.3 and by removing all redundant tag versions

    That's why I wait for iTunes to be constantly renaming of files during the import process correspond to the values of metadata.  However, I came to open a Windows Explorer window and look for the folder created by iTunes to a new import.  My library on an external drive, so for the folder names, the model is:

    • : \\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\-

    What I see here is one of two conditions:

    • the names of files after the copy operation are the same as those downloaded on Amazon, i.e., was did not updated to reflect changes in metadata, or
    • are a mixture of original file names Amazon and good names generated by iTunes

    A thorough inspection showed that further updates in iTunes (for example, modify the associated work) corrects then all file names to match the pattern expected as determined by the parameter "Keep." organized... ».

    In some ways, I actually don't care about what I usually don't worry about how iTunes stores/names of media files as long as it preserves the integrity of my library.  However, this may be associated with other symptoms (especially the questions repeatedly reported with albums with not properly) which suggest that recent versions of iTunes have had problems with the assessment rules based on metadata.

    Everyone looks the same?  I think that this should be reported as a bug, but I prefer to verify that this isn't an oddity associated with my library (even if I have several computers running iTunes they use all copies of the same library).

    Clarification (since I can't change the original view)... when I talk about my use of Foobar 2000, the workflow that I use is:

    • Download purchased files using the Amazon Music app, which I configured to not automatically add new downloads for iTunes
    • load files in Foobar 2000 and update metadata
    • importing files into iTunes

    Thus, changes to metadata are all made before that anything that is either added to iTunes.

  • How can I import this file

    Can someone help me to import this file into my library. I think it's the reading list that I'm missing. It is 1 MB.

    I need to change the file type?

    This is a file from iTunes - name database, was created automatically by iTunes in the update of 12.2.1 12.2.2.  You cannot import database files - if you want to use, to replace the current database (back on iTunes 12.2.0 or 12.2.1 or repair the corruption of the active database) you will need to:

    • release of iTunes
    • find your current iTunes Library.itl file (by default in C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes) and either rename - for example, in "iTunes Library.xxx" - or move it to another location
    • Copy the iTunes Library 2015.07 - 21.itl file (which should be C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\Previous iTunes Libraries) to the location identified in the previous step and then rename it to "iTunes Library.itl".
    • restart iTunes - he must now open the copied database file and show your library as it was on July 21,.
