In your case, try using FILE\/IMPORT MOVIE and navigate to your clip. If that does not work, open your clip in QuickTIme Player and then press Command-I to open the Inspector. Drag and drop has a special meaning in iMovie. In your case, try using FILE\/IMPORT MOVIE and navigate to your clip.iMovie creates copies of the media files in the H. 264 format.

Your original media is not modified.<\/p>\n<h2>What format do videos need to be for iMovie?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>iMovie typically supports MP4, MOV and M4V files. But not all MP4, MOV and M4V videos are compatible with iMovie. If an MP4 video contains compression formats (codecs) that are not accepted by iMovie, you won&#8217;t be able to import it. In a case like this, you need to use iMovie format converter to convert the file.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I import multiple videos into iMovie?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>To import iMovie projects or other videos on your hard drive (or other disks) from Finder, select a file or cmd+click to select multiple files and drag them from Finder to the Event in the Libraries list in iMovie.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why does iMovie say no disk space?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When we talk about \u201ciMovie, not enough disk space\u201d error, of course, the first thing that comes to mind is that you&#8217;ll have to clear up space to resolve the issue. &#8230; Erase iMovie projects that are not up-to-date.

That&#8217;s why iMovie says it supports MP4, but iMovie won&#8217;t import your MP4 files. It&#8217;s just a video codec incompatibility problem.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I edit an MP4 video on my iPad?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open the Photos app and tap the video that you want to edit.<\/li>\n<li>Tap Edit.<\/li>\n<li>Move the sliders on both sides of the video timeline to change the start and stop times.  <\/li>\n<li>Tap Done, then tap Save Video or Save Video as New Clip.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is MPEG 4 the same as MP4?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>An MPEG4-encoded video can be contained in an MP4 file.
