The .mov file format is not supported by WMM (Windows Movie Maker). You need to convert the file to one of the following formats:

.asf, .avi, dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

Free video converters are available online (Simply Google: free video converters)

Once you have downloaded a video converter, follow the conversion instructions to convert the .mov file to one of the extensions listed. Be sure to include the extension as the 'output source'.

Insignia NS-DV720P hd camera and when you try to import videos from files from your camera is says you need to download codec for windows movie maker?

The camera files use a different file name extension (format) than Windows Movie Maker does. In other words, the camera's files are not compatible with the program. You can either download the K-Lite Standard Codec Package (Google it). Perhaps the codec package contains the one you need to read the camera file. If that doesn't work, download a free video converter from online and convert the camera file to one compatible with Windows Movie Maker.
