Converting .mov files to make smaller?

I’m not a tech person (hopefully one will weigh in), but this is a common situation and an easy fix. You can import the file into the video editing software program you have – IMovie or windows moviemaker can even work-- and when you go to produce or output the file, there will be options for file type and size. There are also free video converter programs on line (I use avs video converter, which isn’t free but is inexpensive), and that’s as easy or easier than using your editing program. The only thing is to check the resulting file carefully because I have noticed that converting one file type to another can sometimes cause some subtle audio/video syncing issues; in that case, simply convert to another file type. In any event, you should probably be able to stick with a .mov file (just a smaller size .mov).
