How to Use iTunes to Change .MOV Files to Work in Widows Movie Maker
Windows Movie Maker provides you with the necessary tools to edit, manage and share digital videos right on your computer. The application is native to Windows and will not work with files in the .MOV format, a digital video format developed by Apple. To avoid compatibility issues, iTunes includes a convenient conversion tool built into the software. You can use the conversion tool to change the .MOV to the .MP4 format without impacting the original video file.
