Hi,

MOV files are Apple Quicktime file.  Before you do anything, make sure you have the current version of Quicktime on your computer, try it again and if that does not work, come back and tell us.  Go here

Download the latest version of Quicktime for windows and if that does not work, come back and let us know.

George ,

 

Update was done to Quicktime 7.7.2 . I am aware that those are Apple compatible files . Question is still open : when i drag a  . MOV near a picture in Photstory CD/DVD a window is getting open with the request to purchase AVCHD .

If i do so will the  .mov file be inserted in my photo presentation ?

Hi,

This post should answer your question.  The answer is yes, for AVCHD you do need to buy the codec, but read it through.

Afterwards i was facing an issue with the rotating of  .MOV pictures . QuickTime pro investment was not worth to do . Using Moviemaker Microsoft was the outcome . And converting to Mpeg x . My mixed DVd with picture & movies is finished . Thanks for your support George
