How to convert HEIC or HEIF files to JPEG (Mac or PC)
Hey everyone in this video, I wanted to show you how to convert it. H E I C file into a JPEG file on Mac or PC. I'm going to start with a Mac and then I'll show you an option for PC that actually works for Mac and PC, but there is a super easy option to do this. Now HCIC is the new format on iOS 11 or later.
So the iPhone X, for example, takes images in this format. So if you want to cover it to JPEG, I'm going to show you how to do that right now. So in its super-easy way on a Mac is. Control-clicking on it and opening it with preview. Obviously, if you have something like Photoshop, that's even easier, but go ahead and open it with preview and you could go to file on top here and then go to export right here on preview and here all you want to do is change the format to JPEG.
So once you do that, you could change the quality. Now it depends on what file size is going to tell you, so if you need to email something, you just want to get it to be a little bit smaller, or if you don't care about size, just go for the best name it, choose where you want to save that too. And then go ahead and save it.
So I'll just. Go ahead and save it to my desktop. Then I'll show you it and here's that JPEG falling. Sometimes it's not going to say JPEG here, but if you press the command, you could see that it's a JPEG file extension. You could see all about this size and so on. So that's a simple way to do it. If that does not work for you, or if you're on a PC, let me show you how to do that right now.
Let's go to Chrome here and I'm going to put a link in the description to this weapon. Just go ahead and click that link and you should just be able to drop that HCIC file or HEIF file right here. So I'm going to go ahead and do that and when I dropped a file right here, you see that it converts and you could have a desktop version to here, but the web version works just fine and then you could just go ahead and press download. It will download it to your download folder. It's that simple with this website and another solution I've seen is this other website. I amazing.com and you could try to use their app, but their app does a lot more than what you need to do in this case.
So I recommend just using the web version here, but if you want to just take a completely out of the web, you could do the desktop version of this app. Or try the amazing app and if you're on a Mac, the preview option should have just worked for you that simply, I hope you found this video useful.
