What file format do i need to add a video to a mac computer?

I need to add a video from my iphone 4 to final cut pro on a mac book
Could someone please tell me how to convert a file and what website i can do this on and the file format this needs to be to put it on final cut pro

Try mov, or mp4

the followind is a terrific site for freeware. You will want to read all the different screens to decide if you want the added software they offer. I think you have to run the programs on a PC, then copy the finished product to a MAC.

Final Cut Pro is professional editing software that costs 300 dollars. You use it with original video from a camcorder or pro video camera. For a teentsy iPhone video, use iMovie. NO CONVERSION IS NEEDED. The Apple iPhone records video in the perfect format for the Apple iMovie app.

You will not get good results by using an iPhone video in Final Cut Pro. You will get better results with iMovie- and even better results with a real video camera. Do not convert the file to a different format. That will degrade the quality. It is impossible to keep 100% of the quality when you convert any video file, and it is impossible to improve the quality.

If you actually did buy a legal copy of Final Cut Pro, you probably know how to edit movies.

  • Which video format does iphone 5s supports? Also please tell if i can convert videos without losing quality! I'm asking for video conversion into the iphone format!
  • What software is the quickest to convert video files to iphone format? I've been using any video converter and free video to iphone converter. Both very slow, it takes up to an hour to convert a 20 mins.wmv or.avi. Are there any faster alternatives? And does that depend on whether I choose to convert to iphone 4 or iphone 5 format? I've tried the latter so can it be that it would be quicker for iphone 4?

  • IPhone 6 doesn't support video format that I've just recorded? I went to a concert last night and recorded a few videos on my iPhone 6. One or two are fine but the rest have all came up as "Unsupported Video Format" although I just recorded it on the normal camera on my phone. Any ideas how to fix this?
