HELP! Transferred videos from iPhone to hard drive and now all black and white.

A few months ago I transferred all my videos to a hard drive and I noticed they were all black & white or flashing weird colors. I ignored it and now just realized I had to export the videos (unmodified versions) then transfer into the hard drive. Is there a way to fix my videos that are already in my hard drive and change them back to its original color? Or is it too late?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Hey there and welcome to Apple Support Communities rubykarolin,


We can certainly understand your concern and are here to help.


We would like to ask you a couple of questions in order to get a better understanding. First, are you using any third party software when transferring these files? Also, have you created a Time Machine and or iTunes backup before the files was transferred? Finally, what is the specific file type of the video you transferred?


While you gather that information, check out this link for more details on transferring data: Transfer your information to Mac from another computer or device - Apple Support


We thank you for your answers, they will help guide us to the next troubleshooting step.


Kindest regards!
