How do you import media files from a camera to a movie making software?

Question by Bee: How do you import media files from a camera to a movie making software?
I have tried many things, but the format of the file can’t be imported. How can I fix that? I am trying to make a home movie using different video clips from my digital camera. Any ideas? Also when I try to find the file it isn’t there and I have saved it. Help!

you would need to convert the file to a different media format. search for video convertion programs: www.download.com and download the software and you;ll be able to convert the media file to different extensions. once thats done, you can simply import the files to your movie making software.
