Transfer VHS to Mac

While VHS tapes were quite popular when they were first introduced, there is no VHS drive on your new Mac, and you can't buy one at the Apple Store. That's why we introduced our popular VHS to Mac transfer service.

How do you get VHS into your Mac? It's really pretty simply. You send us your VHS tapes and a hard drive (if you live in Minnesota, you can drop them off at one of our stores). No hard drive? No problem. We have 1 terabyte and 2 terabyte high quality mac-friendly drives available for purchase. We take your tapes and turn them into Mac-friendly DV files on your hard disk, ready to drop into iMovie so you can start editing you memories.

VHS Tapes Transferred to Mac Formatted Files Right Here in St. Paul

We run all of our VHS to digital file conversions onsite, and can turn most jobs in one to two weeks, depending on order size and time of year. If you're in a rush, give us a call and we'll do our best to astound you with top quality service that meets your deadline, even if it was yesterday. Whether you need to transfer just one tape, or a thousand, we can provide you with transfers you'll be proud of.
