Trouble "exporting movie" from iMovie when uploading to You Tube....

Hi, I have never had a problem with uploading my projects from iMovie to You Tube off my iPad. I have about 32GB's available on my iPad 3. I only have about 5 projects and never had any hassle going thru the upload process? Now, with my latest project complete (only about 4.5min) I click on upload to You Tube, it then says "exporting movie" as it normally says, but doesn't go any further - just hangs there?
Any help appreciated!

well... for anyone else experiencing something similar, here's how I worked around it :
1. Once I have edited my video in the iMovie app and I want to publish it, I then select the publish option, and then choose YouTube as the place I'd like to publish it.
2. I then fill out all the fields in the 'Publish to YouTube' form, as if I was about to publish it.
3. I then select CANCEL, to cancel out of the 'Publish to YouTube' form.
4. I then exit the iMovie app, and force it to close by going into the app dock and forcing it to close there.
5. I then re-open the iMovie app, and choose the video I want to publish, select the publish option, choose YouTube as the place I'd like to publish it.
6. The fields are now already populated with the information I had entered previously, although I still need to select the video quality and also whether it should be public or private.
7. I now click "publish" and it publishes correctly, with all the correct meta-data / title / description etc. attached.
This has worked for me consistently over the past couple months now,
Hope this helps anyone with a similar issue.
Cheers,
Nick

  • When uploading to You Tube via iMovie settings and lost/blank?

    Hi,
    When uploading a video via the iMovie app to You Tube it appears that the settings (e.g. title, description, public/private etc... ) are not being transferred to You Tube when the video is uploaded.
    e.g. I attempt to export a video to You Tube via the iMovie app, I type in a title, description and select Public to share the video, but when it has completed uploading at You Tube then the title and description fields are blank and it has defaulted to Private.
    I am using an iPod Touch 4th gen, iOS 5.0.1 with the very latest iMovie app.
    Any help very much appreciated.
    Many Thanks,
    Nick

  • Just bought a new Canon Vixia HF R300.  It looks like I have basically two recording modes--either AVCHD or MP4.  I have a year old Mac Mini on Lion with increased ram.  I edit on iMovie and upload to You Tube.  Which recording mode would be best?

    Hi...
    I just bought a Canon Vixia HF R300 camcorder.  It looks like it gives me a choice of two recording modes AVCHD or MP4.  I will be uploading onto a year old Mac Mini with the Lion Operating system and increased ram.   I will be editing in iMovie '11 then uploading to You Tube.  Which recording mode should I use?  Obviously I'd like to get the best quality but I also want it to show well on You Tube.   What do you think?  Thanks for the help.  Bill

    Hi
    What program can you use to convert AVCHD to a DVD format?
    Share to File (in iMovie) - AND AS 480p - NOT Higher as DownScaling will be done badly.
    Use this file in iDVD or Roxio Toast™ or what DVD Authoring program You've got.
    To make a VIDEO-DVD You must use a DVD Authoring program - to get the right compression format AND Structure - It is a MUST.
    There are free alternatives - but resulting DVD hasve been far from what quality iDVD (and Toast™) will deliver.
    To get best possibly DVD - also this counts.
    - DVD brand used - I only Verbatim
    - DVD type used - I only DVD-R Single layer (4.7Gb)
    (DVD+R works for many and DVD-R/W usually don't work OK and Double Layer also are a problem to it self)
    - BURN SPEED - I set this as low possibly (usually x2)
    - Free Space on Start-Up Hard Disk - MATTERS - I never go less than 25Gb
    Good Luck

  • Exported Movies From iMovie Won't Play on ATV2

    I'm trying to make a DVD (more about that on another thread - iDVD ARGH!) for my kids nursery. I have 25 minutes of footage which I just want to split into two, title up and burn to disc or make available for download. The footage came from a Flip camera. If I convert to MP4 using Handbrake the entire clip plays really well on my Apple TV 2 via iTunes. If I caption or put titles on a clip and export from iMovie the content will not play on the ATV2. Anyone got any tips?

    Well, tried to play the files in itunes and they don't, just sit there waiting to play but never start! The one I put back through Handbrake does play though so I have a workaround. However, I don't think I should be having to do this should I? I know iDVD is flaketastic but thought iMovie was pretty solid. Maybe some prefs that are wrong somewhere?
    Edit: Just realised that I've been a bit light on detail there. Opened Handbrake, selected the file I exported from iMovie (rather than published to iTunes) and then chose the ATV2 preset, set frame rate to PAL (I know I didn't need to do this), put a HB suffix on the file, created the file and then added it to my iTunes library.

  • Exporting movies from iMovie to Windows Powerpoint 2003

    Hi, Need help with this one. I imported a VHS tape video (via Dazzle Hollywood) into iMovie then exported to an avi file. It is an tape of an echocardiogram so I need reasonable resolution.
    Tried this on my mate's PC laptop (he has yet to see the light) with a view to import it into Powerpoint 2003 but it won't play/recognise file etc.
    Any quick fix? Tried MP4 (slighhtly lower resulotion for a medical image) but this can play in windows media player but not in powerpoint.
    look forward to any suggestions

  • Export straight from iMovie project to Flash movie..

    Hi there,
    Is there any way to export straight from iMovie to a Flash movie?
    Groet! Rick

    I created a bunch of 'enhanced podcasts" using GarageBand and uploaded them to www.audioblog.com where these files apparently were encoded with Flash, which I then published on my website at http://www.biom.net/index.php/teahouse/permalink/stayinghealthy_insummer/ using Audioblog's code.
    Now I want to use the freeware FLASH VIDEO PLAYER 2.4 from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=FlashVideoPlayer.
    When I downloaded my GarageBand-created enhanced podcasts from Audioblog they came down as .mov files which I need to convert to .flv to use with Flash Video Player 2.4.
    Any suggestions for converting these .mov files to .flv so I can'self-publish' them on my website?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    Error -50 paramErr  Error in user parameter list
    Can there be any external hard disks - if so How is/are it/they formatted ? Must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) if used for Video.
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most but not for VIDEO.
    What this means in Your situation is above me.
    • free space on internal boot hard disk? How much ?
    Video codec
    • streamingDV, AIC etc. (not .avi, .mp4, .m4v, .wmv etc as they are containers not codecs)
    Pictures
    • in what format ? .jpg, .bmp, .tif, else ?
    Audio
    • from where/what format ? iTunes, .avi, .mp3, .aiff, else ?
    Trash the Preference file:
    The "com.apple.iMovie.plist" file
    Many users has not observed that there are TWO libraries.
    • Library - at root level
    • Library - in user/account folder - THIS IS THE ONE to look into
    from Luke Burns
    I fixed the problem.. but it was very, very strange. I had a very long section for credits and set the line spacing to 1.0.. for some reason this caused it. I removed it, and it worked fine. I put it back, and I couldn't preview or play the video.
    I don't know why that could cause that big of a problem, but it did..

    You need more free space on your hard drive.

    After phone support from apple I ended up creating a new project and adding all 117 clips back in individually till I found out what clips flagged and would not allow me to export. I had 3 I deleted and replaced and everything works now 1hr after tedious work....
    Where do Your material come from
    • Camera
    • External hard disk
    • USB-memory
    And all are connected so that iMovie can find it ?

    from Karsten S
    Shorter clips than 1,5 sec might be one of the culptrits
    Bengt cont.
    Set-Up might differ
    • Mac OS - most probably X.7 or more
    • iMovie version - more than iM'11 v. 9.0.4
    Action taken
    • Finalizing project - I never do as I never understood the gain to do so
    • Share as HD to iDVD - never give any gain but if it works the resulting DVD is less quality than if SD-quality was shared
    fps - set
    •I only use PAL (25fps)

    According to Crash Analyzer
    -50 (QuickTime)
    This error occurs when there is corrupt or invalid media in your timeline. Check that the codec used by the file is recommended for use in your editing application.
    good luck

  • How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?

    How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?
    It's really annoying for Quicktime player to auto-lauch!

    It may not be that simple David. They're using a "server" and some of the Apache software may want to launch QuickTime at boot.
    This isn't really a QuickTime question. It's a sever question best answered in those Discussion pages.

  • How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    InDesign's PDF export engine does not transcode your videos, they are embedded exactly as they were in the original file. The Flash Player runtime which displays video inside PDF files may not show a perfect match to Quicktime etc. because most video playback tools aren't designed for a color-calibrated workflow, but they should be close.
    The playback quality (blocking and aliasing) will be affected if the clip is not playing at 100% (screen pixels != video pixels) and in PDFs with the standard video player widget, that will only ever happen when you use 'floating window' mode. PDF pages have physical dimensions, so viewing them at "100%" does not make them match screen pixels.
    If you don't mind the video clip being smaller than the media annotation in which it's playing, then use my free upgrade to the Acrobat playback widget - VideoPlayerX - which maintains 1:1 pixel scale until the page is zoomed out too far for it to fit. You can install the widget into InDesign so it's used by default when exporting.

  • I cannot export my movies from iMovie since updating to Mavericks.

    I cannot export my movies from iMovie since updating to Mavericks. I can get it into Theater then it says "Creating movie" but nothing happens. I can select share movie into a file, I can pick a name, resolution and location, but it doesn't save. I get the blue circle in the top right hand corner but nothing seems to happen. iMovie used to work perfectly, I cannot believe the update has ruined it!!!!

  • How do I get a movie from iMovie to a dvd?

    How do I get a movie from iMovie to a dvd to be able to play it on a dvd-player? Tried exporting it but when I burnt it, it doesn't work on the dvdplayer. There is no idvd on my new macbook pro and I'm new to both mac and iMovie.

    Hi
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
