Convert SWF Files to Mac Devices

As we all know, all kinds of Apple/Mac devices and applications including the iPhone, iPad, iPod, iMovie, FCP, iTunes, QuickTime, etc. do not support the SWF videos since they don’t have the Adobe Flash Player. That’s really inconvenient either for work or for entertainment since SWF is one of the most commonly used and seen formats. There’re many chance that we need to use the SWF files on Mac like inserting SWF to Keynote. I’ve found many Mac users wondering how they can use the SWF files on Mac applications without Adobe Flash Player:

I am using a screen record program called 'Jing', on my mac. The one problem I am encountering is editing video in iMovie. The clips I'm making are '.swf' (flash) files, that for some reason, I cannot seem to open in iMovie. Can I convert these to .mov files for free in some way? Or maybe I need to figure out a way to get a free program to edit my swf files?
Help!

I would like to know how it is possible to take a flash file from its flash format and convert it into a movie file like a quicktime file. For I want to playback it on my QuickTime player. Help please?

How can we fix such kind of problem? Well, actually, if you want to import SWF to iMovie on Mac for editing, or play flash SWF on QuickTime, the easiest way is to convert the flash SWF to Mac accepted formats such as MOV. QuickTime MOV is the default video format of Mac OS and iOS, which means if your video can be open with QuickTime (in MOV format), it can be used in any Mac devices and applications.

To conduct such conversion, you will need a third-party SWF Video Converter for Mac (or SWF Video Converter for Windows if necessary) to help. A powerful converter like Doremisoft Mac SWF Converter can help Mac users handle most difficult SWF conversion problems. Of course, this kind of SWF converter can not only convert SWF to MOV, but also can convert SWF to a lot more other formats. For example, you can convert SWF to M4V on Mac so that you can transfer it to your iTunes library.

How to Put JING Screenshots into Use on Mac

The SWF file format delivers animation created with Adobe Flash; may contain text as well as both vector and raster graphics and sound over the Internet; also may include interactive actions written in ActionScript; plays in Web browsers that have the Flash plug-in installed. Flash Player already reaches over 98% of Internet-enabled desktops and more than 800 million handsets and mobile devices. The SWF file format is designed to be an efficient binary delivery format, not a format for exchanging graphics between graphics editors.

Jing is a screencasting computer program launched in 2007 as Jing Project by Corporation TechSmith. You can capture an image of what you see on your computer screen with Jing. Besides, you can also select any window or region that you would like to record, and Jing will capture everything that happens in that area. From simple mouse movements to a fully narrated tutorial, Jing records everything you see, and do. Jing videos are limited to five minutes for instant, focused communication. Jing gives you the basic tools to start sharing images and short videos of your computer screen.

JING is very adorable for most users, except the Mac users since it record videos and movements in .swf format. As is known to all, Apple did not, does not and still will not cooperate with Adobe, so there’s no Adobe Flash Player and Adobe flash plugin on Mac, without which, Mac cannot run the SWF files at all. It is a great pity not making full use of JING. As many Mac users are asking how they can use the JING SWF videos on Mac – JING to iMovie, JING SWF to MOV on Mac, or JING SWF to QuickTime on Mac, etc. here, I’ll provide you the easiest way to handle that: to use a third-party JING SWF Converter to get this task done.

Can I Play AVCHD Videos with QuickTime on Mac?

Have you ever face the problems like this: "I'm thinking of buying a Canon camcorder which produces AVCHD files. Can I view these straight away with QT 10 or must they be converted first?" (-from Apple Support Community) If you are looking for the answer to the question “Can I play AVCHD videos with QuickTime on Mac”, you should read this passage.

Mac users would always be confused about how to deal with their camcorder AVCHD videos on QuickTime or use the MTS files in other ways, e.g. to upload AVCHD to YouTube. Before talking about this problem, let me explain something about AVCHD videos. AVCHD (Advanced Video Coding High Definition) is a file-based format for the digital recording and playback of high-definition video developed jointly by Sony and Panasonic. It is also called MTS/M2TS as the MPEG-2 transport stream supporting 720p and 1080i HD video formats. MTS files can particularly be opened and edited using the software included with Sony and Panasonic HD camcorders.

Well, if you have to the experience of importing AVCHD to QuickTime on Mac for playback, you may have noticed that the QuickTime player cannot recognize AVCHD videos by default, because QuickTime only support very few video formats like H.264, MPEG-4, MP4, MOV, etc. (as has been mentioned above, AVCHD MTS in at MPEG-2 codec).

In this regard, if you need to play the AVCHD videos on QuickTime, you have to convert AVCHD to QuickTime on Mac beforehand. With a smart Doremisoft Mac AVCHD Converter (AVCHD Video Converter for Windows), you can easily finish this task within seconds. What’ more, this converter can also help you upload AVCHD to YouTube by converting AVCHD to MP4 or FLV file format since multiple converting functions is embedded.
