    So to add a procedure, his is what I have tried with. I make use of QuickTime Pro 7 so that I am able to convert my video so that it's supported on my iPad2 & iMovie. Here are the settings I employ:You need to set your QT7 pro export to: QuickTime Movie, afterward move in the Options, Set the following settings:
    VIDEO
    Compression: H.264
    Frame Rate: 30fps or less
    Bitrate restrict to: 10000 kbits/sec or less
    Dimensions: 1280x720 or less
    AUDIO
    Format: AAC
    Sample rate: 44.1kHz
    Channels: Mono
    In addition, you also need to make sure that you name your file something like this: IMG_4563.MOV. followed by importing the file into the iPad2 by dropping it into iPhoto as well as syncing your device by means of iTunes otherwise make use of your Camera Connection Kit.hope this helps.

    I also have some additional information which will help you to solve your process. And you are able to import videos to iPad2 from just concerning any camera, and by making use of a PC or else Mac.It is a two step procedure.
    1- you need to make an conversion of the video into an iMovie friendly format
    2- then you need to import by making use of iTunes.
    Make use of a conversion program, similar to Handbrake, to change your original video into a 1280x720 size. In Handbrake, make use of Average Bitrate (for HD movies) set to 10730 kbps. Followed by setting Audio to AAC, Stereo,along with an 44.1kHz sample rate, as well as bit rate of 128kbps. Secondly, In iTunes, you just are not able to drag-and-drop your video to transfer into your iPad. You require make use of the “Photos” tab in addition to then making selection of the check box "Include videos" . at this moment , synch your iPad2 and the video will show up in your camera roll. And all have been solved here and you are able to do as you wished since long times.

    Re: How to import videos into imovie on apple iPad 2

    I have tried in an another way. So I have some process in which you are able to import .mov file to iPhoto - You need to create album in iphoto. So if you wish to continue, import .mov to library first rename it thus. As something as img_5436.mov and then make an addition of the .mov file to the latest album. In itunes iphone sync alternatives, in photos, you will require to locate album and chose it AND on that page tick include videos . in "summary", you need to choose "include only ticked songs and videos". But you just make a note of one thing that I actually sync very slight media content with iphone, and you need to don't sync with icloud so this is a per-project thing furthermore reset to unique when accomplished. And then you need to sync phone. at this moment in iMovie, your clip will be pickable. I advise you make use of it and output/save your complete iMovie asap. Then you can go back to iTunes on Mac along with de-check comprise videos as well as the album you checked in "photos" . you can sync again, it will be gone from phone. One more thing to tell regarding the Movie1.3 is that , if you are making use of any of the trailer formats and they need video, so plan ahead and have something you wish for to use in your trailer that acts similar to your phone.

    Re: How to import videos into imovie on apple iPad 2

    In my case, it was not working at all as I downloaded the app but I was not able to get it to see your files in Videos. I was simply observing my Camera Roll. And after I went to back and it came to my notice that I am not able to import from "Videos", and it is only possible that you can only import from camera app / camera roll. In addition, you will come across that you will NOT see a vid clip imported by the use of iTunes in Camera Roll OR Videos . the only place you will observe it is after you have launched your iMovie project and after you have inserted video clips .the clip will come into view together with obtainable Camera Roll media.So an alternative is to produce an iMovie project with importing only that clip you got in using iTune then save the project as a movie to your camera roll. Then it will be there forever saved. Then you need to go back to iTunes on Mac/PC and dump the vid from iTunes so it does not sync reverse into your iOS again to save memory at hand.as well, iMovie on iPhone has cool but partial titling. I used a drawing app on my mac and I was making some experiments to create a 640x480 graphic–black with white text with url, and so on. and shot a still and a 2 second vid clip for making use of it in the output.

    Re: How to import videos into imovie on apple iPad 2

    You are able to import video files captured from other devices, though compatibility is hit. We haven’t had any fate importing files captured from Canon DSLRs, but I had a little achievement with Cisco's Flip video cameras. If you have a Flip, here’s how it works. make use of your Flip to shoot some video. Pop out the Flip’s built-in USB connector and attach it to the iPad 2 making use of the Apple Camera Connection Kit’s USB adapter. You need to make a note of one thing that on the Flash Ultra HD Flip camcorder I used, I need to plug in a powered USB hub among the Flip along with the Camera Connection Kit. It was came to my notice later that the Flip Mino HD did not have need of a hub.

    Then you can look into importing photo app. Once the Flip is connected to the iPad, the Photos application will tend to start on. A Camera tab will tend to unlock and thumbnails of your Flip’s clips will load in the window. If you are interested in importing all of the clips, right away strike the blue Import button which will be present at the bottom of the screen. To choose individual clips to import, just tap the thumbnail image along with a blue checkmark will come into view on the thumbnail. later than you’ve chosen your clips, then hit the blue Import button at the base of the screen. The app will inquire if you wish for importing all or else just the preferred clips. Make your selection, and the app will start importing your images. When the iPad is completed with the importing process , Photos will inquire if you’d like to delete the files from the camera. And I will suggest you to make an selection of the Keep Files, and make certain that the movies or else photos are shifted effectively before deleting no matter which from the camera. Later, you need to hit the iMovie icon on your iPad. When the iMovie app opens, you need to tap the + (plus) icon which is present at the bottom of the screen so that you are able to start a new project.Finally, the video clip, in addition to anything you’ve captured to the iPad or imported by means of syncing, will demonstrate up in the upper left hand side of the screen in a window which is called as Video. You need to then hit on the clip and a blue arrow will tend to appear, along with a yellow handle at each end of the clip. You are able to tap and drag the handles to choose the segment of the clip you desire to bring onto your timeline as well as click the blue arrow to bring it into your project so that you are able to make a proper edition.
