Original title: Problem with video files in Movie Maker

 

I have Windows Movie Maker 2012 on a Windows 8 computer. I uploaded several .wmv files to the program and they played fine in the preview screen. After organizing the files and saving the project I then tried to upload additional .wmv video files to the project. These files showed up with an error code saying the files were corrupted and had to be deleted. So I deleted these files, but then when I went back to play the first files that were saved and had played previously it also told me those were corrupt and had to be deleted. Now whenever I upload a .wmv file it will start to play in the preview window and then stop and give me the message that it is a corrupt file that needs to be deleted. Please help me fix this problem. Thanks.

 

I have Skydrive and the SkyDrive desktop app and all of my documents, music, photos and OneNote notebooks are being synced between my PC and SkyDrive.

I have more space available on my sky drive and I would like to back up some files I have on some hard drives attached to my PC. 

Some of the files are video files or files that I have archived. But I do not want these files synced to my PC's hard drive, I don't have enough room. 

I would like to store them in a folder on SkyDrive, but not sync them to my PC. 

How can I do this? Can I make a folder on SkyDrive that will NOT be part of the folders that show up in my SkyDrive desktop app and end up as a synced file on my PC? Can I upload files from an external hard drive connected to my computer and not have it sync to my PC?

Thank you,

I am trying to import video files off my camera/ laptop into moviemaker (windows 8). Still photos and music is fine, but the video clips with MOV extension will not import.

 

Any suggestions why and what to do ?

I have built a six minute video with about 30 pictures, 20 video clips, and 2 music files.  I have tried to save the movie in several different formats including the recommended format and every time I get the exact same response:

"There are missing or unusable files in your Movie Maker project that are preventing your movie from being saved. Please check that file preparation is enabled in Options, or remove the files and try again"

Each time the message comes up, however, it references a different video file as being the source of the problem.  

I am using Version 2012 Build 16.4.3505.0912

My video files are .MOV (From an iPhone and from a dSLR camera) and .MP4 (from a GoPro)

My photo files are .jpeg

My music files are .mp3

Please help!!!!!  Thank you
