Why can't I import media files into Filmora for Mac?

If you're having trouble importing files, try these solutions:

1️⃣ Check File Compatibility
• Verify your files are in a supported format https://filmora.wondershare.com/mac-tech-spec.html
• Common working formats: MP4, MOV, JPG, PNG

2️⃣ Simplify the File
• Save a copy to your desktop (avoid network/cloud locations)
• Remove any special characters:

❌ "Vacation@2024#.mp4"

✅ "Vacation.mp4"

3️⃣ Try Alternative Import Methods
• Drag & drop directly into the Filmora timeline
• Or use: Media Panel → Import Media
