Did you install Quick time most video editors have you install it, or the K-Lite Codec Pack might work to. I have a 70D and able to import mov files Power Director and Sony Vegas. But I have Quick time install. I don't let in install iTunes.

I don't have Pinnacle studio 17. I did use Pinnacle studio 14 back in 2010 but I was importing GoPro files in that was MP4. Over the last year get the 70D was the first camera I had that did the mov file type. Premiere Pro CS6, Power Director, and Sony Vegas has not given be any problems with mov file types. I have heard of people having trouble with mov and mp4 in some programs importing. Did you buy Pinnacle studio 17 or are you trying out a trial. I know some companys trial version will not let you import some types of HD files. Because they have to pay a fee for the Codec un tell they reach a dollar limit for the year.

I was reading this maybe it will help.
How can I make Pinnacle Studio work with H.264 MOV files? | Video Transfer

If I have it right on the 70D the mov is just a container for the h.264 codec.

Here is a good video that explains Codecs and Containers

Thanks Michael, I got in touch with Pinnacle and te answer is that Pinnacle uses Fire wire that is why USB does not work and as you know there is no fire wire conection on the Canon 70 D Thanks a million for answering my question.

I my self just pull the SD card out of the camera and put it in to a card reader. Than copy the files over to the hard drive. Then I import them in to the editor. That should work for you.

I just connect the camera to the PC via a USB cable and then copy files across using windows explorer.
