Videos not downloading to iPhone on Canon Camera Connect

[rinnpop]

Hey! I have a Canon EOS I'm not sure which one specifically. But, the camera connect app lets me download photos just fine but won't let me download videos to my iphone. When I try to hit download it shows a yellow exclamation mark beside the video, and it says it is not supported. I have more than enough Iphone storage, and I just got this camera so I don't know what to do. Please let me know thanks!

This will be a bit ironic that Apple's MOV (Movie) format that your camera is using cannot be saved to Apple devices.

Unfortunately this is due to MOV not being a format like JPEG, but a "container" which can store almost any kind of video data.   About the only solution that I know of it to import the videos to a computer, then export them to at least H.264 which would provide the most compatibility with all devices.

I looked for this on various websites including youtube and solved it using to allow camera permission to certain apps.

I looked for this on various websites including youtube and solved it using to disable "Bringing Devices Together" and prevent your iPhones from automatically connecting:-

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.

2. Scroll down and tap on "General".

3. Tap on "AirDrop".

4. Under the "Bringing Devices Together" section, toggle the switch off.

This will disable the feature and your iPhones will no longer automatically connect when they are near each other. You can still use AirDrop to share files by manually opening the Control Center and selecting the AirDrop option.

Here are some additional points to consider:-

• This feature is available on iPhones running iOS 16 or later.
• You can disable "Bringing Devices Together" on any of your iPhones to prevent them from connecting automatically.
• Disabling "Bringing Devices Together" will not affect other AirDrop functionalities.
