Emailing video

hello, does anyone else have trouble emailing video? when i try to send video by email, i get an error message " a problem occured while sending mail" .
does anyone else have this problem ? if so , does anyone know who to correct this problem?

Every time I email videos recorded on the iPhone 3GS video camera, it sends out multiple duplicate emails, each with the video attached. My iPhone is setup to use my Yahoo email account. Apparently, the multiple video emails problem is a bug in OS 3.0 or the Yahoo email function. To avoid my intended recipients getting multiple duplicate emails, I send the video to myself (even though I will get multiple copies), and then I just forward one copy to my intended recipients. This works. Hopefully, Apple (or Yahoo Mail, if it is the culprit) will correct the bug in the next release of the iPhone OS.

'email video' doesn't work on iPad 2; please help

I am unable to email video recorded on my iPad 2. I used to be able to, but in the last couple of days it has not been working. The 'email video' selection does show up and after I tap it, nothing happens. That is, the popup window to allow me to type the email address doesn't show up. I have to email an important video tonight. Any help is extremely appreciated. Is there any other option such as transferring the video to my laptop and then send it from there? If so, how should I accomplish it? Please help. Thanks.

Hello - I have the same problem and have tried a variety of configurations.
When headphones are plugged in: All apps and sound effects work with head phones
but not when headphones are unplugged. When the headphones are plugged in I can
controll volume using the volume up down button on the side of the pad. I can also
double tap home screen and adjust volume with the slider. The system mute button
is turned off in the home screen so there should be sound. In general setting I've set
the switch button to control screen rotation. But there is no change in behavior if I change
that button to control sound. My rotate switch is set to screen.
When headphones are unplugged: If I unplug the headphone, there is no sound from anything.
If I double press the home to get to the task bar I can swipe to the far left and see the mute button
is turned off. I can control the screen brightness, but the slider for the sound is missing. The sound
slider slot is there but the button to slide volume left or right is missing. It's like someone pulled that
knob off the slider switch. If I press the volume up / down button on the side of the iPad the 'sound
effects' pop up box show up but there is no increasing / decreasing sound. The ringer and alerts button
in general settings / sound is on. And if I slide the ringer alerts volume slider left / right it does make
increase / decrease sound.
I've rebooted several times. I've open task manager and manually closed all apps. Don't know what to do...
Sound just doesn't work and sound effects don't work either.... I've tried all the different suggestions on
blogs and this forum but I can't seem to get it to work.. Please help, or maybe I should just bring it in...
Thanks.

I want to display MacBook Pro email videos on my Panasonic TV. I bought it in Jan 2010, one article says the function is supported on mid-2010 models and later. Think I can buy the hook ups and get this to work?

I want to display computer contents (email videos, YouTube videos) on my Panasonic HDTV. Can a model from Jan. 2010 do this? Thanks.

Yes, easily — but to get the audio to the TV through the same HDMI cable as the video, you'll need an adapter like the ones I linked in this thread:

How to email video clips?

I have made a short video on iMovie. Right now the video is ready in the upper left section of iMovie. If I were to make a dvd, I would click SHARE to iDVD, but I would like to email the video to a client, rather than make a dvd. What is the best way to email video clips to a client?
Thanks

*best practice* :
• 'share' your Project to YouTube
• mail the URL to that YT-video to client
=> you avoid problems with size (=video is huge)/Bandwidth probs, and 'formats' (=YT is by sheer popularity 'standard'). You can set your Video at YT to 'Private', so only your client is able to watch it. meanwhile, YT allows superb quality ..-
not-so-good practice:
under Share, Export using Quicktime and the following Option-dialogs allow tons of options to convert and 'shrunk' the video. depending on, what your IP allows about mail-attachement's sizes, you can play with the 'knobs' format/codec, frame-rate, size, to make the video small enough - for the price of quality and compatibility. ex, Windows users often have problems with h264.mov ...

Emailed video tries to open in PDF format

When I try to open an emailed video attachment, it defaults to the PDF reader app (and obviously won't play)
If I delete the PDF app it shows the Quicktime logo but is frozen & won't open.
I have iOS4 with wifi & 3G. Help!!

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

How to email videos from iPhoto

What is the best way to email video footage that I have in my iphoto?

There isn't a good way to email video.
Video files are very large and can cause all sorts of issues for the recipient just because of their size. Best option is to upliad the clips to Dropbox, Vimeo, YouTube or sharin services like YouSendIt or RapidShare and then email a link to the other person.

Emailed Video from 3GS only playing in portrait

I have been taking video in landscape mode on 3GS and then emailing video. The attached video only plays in portrait even though I filmed in landscape. How do I fix this?
Thanks

Seeing the same problem here as well. Will shoot video in landscape (camera shutter button on the right in landscape view); and then either watching the video on the iPhone or after sending off the video, it plays in portrait and NOT landscape.
This is annoying when trying to watch a landscape video taken on the 3GS. If you turn the phone 90º to view it as you shot it, the video rotates on the iPhone. Turn it back to portrait, then it goes to landscape. Try to quickly compensate by rotating the iPhone now that it's in the view you want it, and it rotates to portrait again.
VERY annoying. Landscape videos can be watchable in "Edit" view (sometimes), but it just doesn't seem to be working right.

Why can't I email videos taken with iphone 4 from my mac

Why can't I email videos taken with my iphone 4 from my Mac? It says the video is to big or long but the particular one I am trying to send is only 1 min 16 sec long. I don't remember having this problem with my 3gs. I am trying to email them with my yahoo act, and I see this very same question was asked July of 2010, but their are no replies. It may be a very simple fix, but I can't seem to figure it out. Surly, I don't have to reduce my videos to 30 sec or less to get them to send. Can anyone please help a gal out?

Go into the Activity Monitor and Quit or Force Quit the Acrobat process.

I keep hearing that I can't email videos from iPhoto because they are too big. What I don't understand is that I was able to send videos via email in the past. Why?

I keep hearing that I can't email videos from iphoto because they are too big. What I don't understand is that I have emailed videos via email in the past. Why is that?

Look at your settings iPhoto>Preferences>Accounts
and make changes here or add your email account if not in the list
One thing to look at for sure is the SMTP sever name, I think by default it fills it in as smtp.me.com or some such, which may not be your email outgoing server.

How do I email video imported from camera?

How do I email video imported from digital camera? It is a short video not more than a couple minutes long. I am using a PowerBook G4.
Thanks for any help.

Video's get big quickly, however, assuming it's not too big, just attach it to your email and send it along.
This isn't a reliable method because you just don't know what the limits are on both ends. It is much more reliable to use a free file transfer service like Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, Amazon Cloud Drive, YouTube, etc and just send an email link.

You should compress the video file before transferring. Just click on the name video file and go to the File menu. Compress ... is there. The compressed file will have the same name as the original, with a .zip suffix.
That's not the way to compress a video file. Video files are already compressed using lossy codecs like H.264, and if you apply a lossless codec like ZIP you may end up with zero additional compression. In some cases, applying ZIP to a lossy compressed file may cause the file to become larger.
The correct way to compress a video is to export it from iMovie (or whatever) with the correct settings for the destination (email, YouTube, iPad, etc.).

Cannot veiw email videos screen says blocked plug in

when i try to veiw a email video a screen says blocked plug in and i have updated my adobe flash several times

Very likely you have an older version of a plug-in installed for your browser. Most of the time the culprit for this is Adobe's Flash player. Go to Adobe's web page and download and install the newest version of their plug-in.
Best of luck.

No video when emailing video clip?

I took a video on my iPhone and want to email it to a friend. I did download it to my desktop iMac. Here are the things I've already tried.
1. I edited the clip in iPhoto and tried to email it from there, but that is not supported.
2. I then exported the clip to the desktop, drug the file to my email and it was completely blank (no video or sound).
3. I imported it into iMovie, trimmed the clip, finished the project & then shared it to the media browser. I opened a new email, added the file from the media browser, and I have sound and a still picture.
4. I've exported as a quicktime project and the clip plays in quicktime fine, but when I go to email it I have a still photo with sound.
Please, what am I doing wrong?

I have iPhoto '11 & iMovie '11

Still thinking about it Kristy - not sure of the solution yet.
As a test, I just dragged a movie clip from iTunes onto the Desktop. The clip was sent to me by my daughter and was taken on her iPhone 4. I dragged the clip into a new message in Mail and it plays perfectly.
So, I'm not sure what's happening with your system. What email program are you using (I'm on Apple Mail)? As the movie clip plays fine in QuickTime, possibly it's the email app that's causing the problem. Can you try using a different program?

IMHO the best solutiopn is to use Apple mail as hyour e-mail client - set it in the iPhoto preferences

Problems with emailing video from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro

Hi all you helpful people,
I have taken some short videos on my iPhone, and have tried to email to my Macbook Pro. The email is received but there is not attached video.
I then downloaded the videos to iPhoto. The option to email the video does not come up at the bottom of the iPhoto screen. On File / Export it only brings up the options for exporting still photo files, eg jpeg.
I then dragged the video file to my desktop and opened a new mail message, and attached the video.
However, it won't send, the server times out. These are only short videos - some 5 sec long. I also can't now remove them from the quere to be sent on mail so everything is backed up behind them. Is there a way to clear them from the queue?
Surely it can't be this difficult? Am I missing something simple?
All help gratefully received!
Thanks.
