What kind of QuickTime files are they? mov isn't a codec, it's a container. I have problems opening up Prores QuickTimes on my work PC even though I'm supposed to be able to.
See if they open with Mpeg Streamclip. If they do, then convert them to another codec. Every edit system, mac and PC should have this software on it. www.squared5.com Rick -----Original Message----- From: List_mail <[email protected]> To: Adobe-Premiere <[email protected]> Sent: Fri, Oct 4, 2013 9:30 am Subject: [AP] RE: Importing .mov files into Premiere Just an update - I tried a new project but still cannot import the mov files. Uwe, you asked how I am getting them from the camera. This is a very simple camera which records to micro SD card. There is no transfer software like with a Sony HD camera or other cameras. So I just copy the files from the card. Still, if I can open them in Premiere 5.5 I should be able to open them in 6. I guess I will have to work in 5.5 a little longer. Well CS6 is the last version I will buy if Adobe persists in subscription-only versions, so this will drag out the anticipation of my "new" CS6 upgrade.

I also tried drag-and-drop. I can work on the files in Premiere 5.5 if I have to, but darn, this is the first project I'm attempting with my upgrade. This was a project I started in Premiere 5.5 and opened in version 6. Maybe I will try a new project in CS6 and see if that helps.

Try copying the entire folder from the camera to your hard drive then navigate to it in the media browser, find the video files and import from there.

Which action cam are you using and how do you get the files to your computer? Uwe Hi, Since the list is slow, I thought I'd pipe up with a problem. I have an HD "action cam" that records to .mov format. I want to make biking videos for winter training. Premiere 5.5 imported these files well enough (they were jumpy during preview but that was OK), but I just upgraded to CS6. When I try to import the files, Premiere 6 says that it cannot import them because "there are no valid video and audio streams." I am suspecting some "mux" issue but I'm not sure what to do about it. Even Windoze Movie Maker can import and play the files. Any ideas? Thanks! Alexandra
