To convert a .mov video file to .3gp, download a converter software and follow the prompts to install it. Choose 3GPP as the output type, select the input video file, and click “Start” to convert. Transfer the new file to a compatible device.
To convert a video file with the .mov extension to a .3gp file, a user would need to download software designed to convert MOV to 3GP and run the desired file through it. After the conversion is done, the user can transfer their file from their computer to their mobile phone or other compatible device and watch the video file. Typically, files with the MOV extension are QuickTime files, and a file with the 3GP extension is a video file format designed to work with cell phones.
Many free converters are available for users to download online. All the user has to do is search for “convert MOV to 3GP” or “MOV to 3GP Converter” and he will find a list of converters that he can download. After finding a converter from a site you trust, you should click “Download” or “Install” and follow the prompts to install the program correctly.
After the installation is complete, the user needs to double click on the program and the converter will be installed on his computer. If you haven’t already, you’ll need to save the QuickTime MOV video file to your computer. Then it should open the converter program and choose 3GPP for the output type. This stands for 3rd Generation Partnership Project and will convert the file to 3GP. The 3GP file was created to be used on mobile phones to allow them to play videos without requiring large file sizes, thus leaving more space on the phone to download other videos or programs.
Next the user has to choose the input video file. After clicking “Browse” or “Open” near the input video file or input box, he should click on the location of the QuickTime MOV file on his computer and click “Open” or “OK”. This will open the QuickTime movie and the user is now ready to convert MOV to 3GP. He should double-check to make sure you entered the correct file into the input box and chose 3GP or 3GPP for the output type. If the user finds the software too confusing or technical to use, they can look for a different, more user-friendly converter.
Finally, the user has to click on the “Start” or “Convert” button. If you need to change any of the technical settings, you should do so first using the drop-down menus or buttons at the top of the converter software. Users who don’t understand how to use these features shouldn’t worry about it and can continue with the conversion.
The software should start the process to convert MOV to 3GP. When finished, the user can choose where to save the new file. The program may automatically save it for him and he should check the Downloads folder on his computer or desktop. After finding the file, he should connect his mobile phone to the computer and transfer the file to it. Not all phones are able to connect to the computer and it is important for the user to verify that their phone supports 3GP video files.
