You need to download a video converter to change a .MOVfile to another format such as .avi (or other WMM format) for use in Windows Movie Maker. Free video converters are available online. Simply Google: free video converters.

I recently find this video converter is very easy to use.

Once you have downloaded and installed the video converter, locate the .MOV file using the program's Browse feature. Then select "To AVI" as output format. Click the ConvertNow button. It's as simple as that.

I think the best way is to download a video/movie converter from the internet. Then convert all of your files so you can use them in Movie Maker.

How do you convert a WMM video file type?

You can't convert a MSWMM (Microsoft Windows Movie Maker) file. The only way to convert it to a standard viewing format is by Publishing or Finishing the movie in the program. A MSWMM file can only be viewed, edited in the Windows Movie Maker program. Publishing or Finishing it is the process that converts it into a .wmv file, which can then be converted to whatever file type you desire.
