Why would you need to convert files?

Answer 1

There is no escaping the digital video age and understanding everything that is happening in the computer world just isn`t an option for most. We`ve all encountered that one time when someone emails you a video attachment that you can`t watch. Or perhaps it's the embarrassment of finding your business/school presentation video won't play on the presentation computer.

With a video converter you never again have to download six media players to support a specific file format. Frequently used for watching home videos, online videos and movies on your computer or portable media device, Video Converter Software are simple, handy applications designed to make your life easier.

Answer 2

Different devices use different file formats. One type of file may not be readable by another device. For example - you may have a picture stored in GIF format - but a device you have might not recognise that format - and you would (perhaps) need to convert the file to a JPG.

Answer 3

Try opening the file in the other program that you want to use. If it is compatible, the information will look as it should with little or no editing. Then save it in the new program. Voila!

Answer 4

Machines, like humans, sometimes speak different languages. Then, just like humans might need an interpreter/translator, a machine needs a file converter.
