Your machine may not have the CPU power to run a 4K video without dropping frames.

Make a 1080 version instead.

Error importing large ProRes file from iPhone 13 Pro to MacBook Pro I have been using my iPhone 13 pro (256GB) to shoot in prores for a documentary. I have a few clips shot in 4K that are very large and can not transfer them to my MacBook Pro (2019 running Monteray 12.4). One clip is 35 GB and others are just over 2 GB. I have tried AirDrop as well as hardwiring the phone to the laptop and using Image Capture. Neither will transfer the large files. In image capture I get: "The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.ImageCapture error -9934.) (-9934)." Please, someone, tell me that my footage can be used other than just taking up huge amounts of space on my phone and played only on the phone. What good is shooting in prores if I can't get the video to my computer to edit it?

Iphone 12 Pro Videos in Fast Forward when Air Dropped to iMac I took video. All video is 4k 60fps or 1080 at 240fps. Never had a problem with this before. Today I air dropped to my iMac running Catalina 10.15.7 and all the videos just play back in fast forward making them useless :( Any help?

Unable to download a 2 hour long video from iPhone 12 to 2019 iMac with Monterey Hi, I recorded a relative telling family stories on my iPhone12 and the video lasted 2 hours. I am home and have been unable to download the video from the phone. I've tried to transfer directly via USB to Photos, and it doesn't even show up on the phone, and I've also tried sending it to my computer via Airdrop. The phone tells me it's preparing but the phone goes to sleep after 15+ munites and never finishes, and never starts the download. Are there any tricks to getting a huge video file off the phone? Thanks in advance, Melissa
