I have a few movie files with the .mov designation. When I offload from Nikon camera to old laptop, they do not show up in Picasa or "my pictures" file. When I access "my pictures" file on my desktop, they show up. What is up???

Hi. Thanks. I go to what you recommend but file called "my pictures". I open file and no .mov -- only jpgs. I use windows media which I don't really like - I will download what you recommend -- Also, when I try to upload .mov to my email, email says: .mov not recognized. Thanks again.

What e-mail do you use?

You can compress the file(s) and archive it/them into .zip format with WinRar. Search for it on internet.
