[QUOTE="John Chambers, post: 1646586, member: 346262"] The iPhoto on my Macbook Pro has been giving me a popup saying: Unreadable Files: 2 The following file could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format /Users/jc/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Auto Import/49E3D4BE5199078BED9B655F6B4F49C9/ev_20120510_031532a_01a3-1.wmv /Users/jc/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Auto Import/49E3D4BE5199078BED9B655F6B4F49C9/ev_20120510_031532a_01a3.wmv Does anyone have any idea how to deal with this? I think it's complaining about some video files that I (accidentally ;-) made on my Canon EOS T21 camera, though those gibberish file names don't look like any file names I can find on the camera. I suppose it's possible that iMovie could handle them, but I don't find any clues explaining how to do that. In any case, is there a way to tell iPhoto to just ignore them? The OK button just closes the popup window, which then pops up again later. (I just stumbled across mac-forums.com, and made an account, but my first couple of attempts to post seem to have been rejected without any error messages. Let's see if this attempt works ... And why does it complain that my answer to the random question was incorrect, when it didn't even show me any question the last time? ;-) [/QUOTE]
