FaceBook Upload Feature uploads video as a photo still

Hi all.
Maybe this has already been widely discussed, but I've only recently upgraded to the latest iPhoto with the direct FaceBook upload button/feature.
When I try to *upload a video clip shot* with my iPhone from my album/events, it *ended up as a photo still* on my FB page. Is this a bug or a restriction?
Thanks and cheers

Dragging the video directly to the Desktop has the same effect.
Correct. That's why I said
Select the video in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export *Kind: Original* and export to the desktop.
When you import a video iPhoto grabs the first frame as a preview and this goes into the Modified folder inside the Library. So, if you drag it to the desktop that's what you get - this preview. You need to export it.
Regards

What software versions do I need to be able view and share videos, and contribute to other people's shared streams?
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 7.0 or later
PC with Windows 7 or later and the iCloud Control Panel 3.0 or later

If the owner of the shared stream has turned on the Public Website option and shares the link with you, you will be able to view videos and see photos and video added by all contributors from any up-to-date browser.

I cannot upload my iMovie video to Facebook, etc. I cannot even attach it to an email, an 'error' message comes up when almost complete. It plays fine in imovies, VLC, mplayerx. Confused, is the file damaged somehow?

The Deskjet series printers connect to wireless networks with what is called USB to Wireless.
You will need a supported operating system to connect a Deskjet to a wireless network. Supported operating systems to connect the printer to a wireless network are Windows 7 (32bit and 64bit), Windows Vista (32bit and 64bit), and Mac OS X (10.5, 10.6, and 10.7).
While there is a software download option for Linux distributions, this is not the full featured software that is capable of adding the printer to a wireless network. Most printers have a wireless setup wizard to accomplish this task, but the Deskjet series printers connect in a different way.
Once the printer is connected to a wireless network, HPLIP 3.12.4 drivers should be able to locate the printer.
Click on Installing the Product Software for a Wireless Network Connection to receive instructions to connect to a wireless network using Windows and Mac operating systems.
Click on Software & Driver Downloads - HP Deskjet 3070A e-All-in-One Printer - B611a to download the appropriate software for a supported operating system to connect to a wireless network.

Is there any way to transfer a video off of Facebook into my own video/camera roll?.......I got new service but didn't get to back up my phone so I lost a few videos, but they're uploaded to my Facebook and I wanted to get them back to my phone

No, but you can save a photo on FaceBook.
Try downloading/saving the video from FaceBook on your computer. If successful, after doing so you can transfer the video to your iPhone along with any photos on your computer or alone. They transfer won't be in the Camera Roll, it will be in your iPhone's Photo Library.

As of July 2014 Facebook won't upload photos, yet my iPhone and the PC at work will, what's up with my Mac or Safari?

as of July 2014 Facebook won't upload photos when trying on my MacBook, yet my iPhone and the PC at work will, what's up with my Mac or Safari? I have updated my Flash and that seems fine. Facebook is not allowing me to upload photos of videos to my profile or friends profiles. Also when I post a link to an article the photo preview with the article no longer shows up either. What the heck??? I am super frustrated. Thanks for any help
What I have:
MacBook
OS X, Version 10.9.3
Safari
Version 7.0.4

I can upload photos to Facebook on Safari 7.0.5 and Mavericks v10.9.4 so update your OS X.
Go to Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update, OR, open the App Store then select Updates from the menu top of that window. Then follow the instructions for updating OS X.
When you're done, launch Safari then uploading photos on Facebook.
If you still have problems, troubleshoot Safari extensions and third party plugins.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

I have inadvertently infringe copyright on facebook and they have subsequently barred me from uploading any more videos. The question I need answered is ( and not able to find the answer on any of you help pages)..... Do the following have free copyright

I have inadvertently infringe copyright on facebook and they have subsequently barred me from uploading any more videos.
The question I need answered is ( and not able to find the answer on any of you help pages).....
Do the following have free copyright to publish on facebook and U Tube?
1.Garage band sounds?
2.Slide show...Sample music and Theme music?
3.iMovie...iMovie sounds and iLife sounds ie.Medal Ceremony and Memorial etc?
I note one can publish to shared net places directly from iMovie so one assumes these are copyright free for non-profit making and non-comercial use.
It is impossible to contact apple direct.No email address.We put our selves at risk without this knowledge and like applemac, facebook will not communicate direct.Will applemac please take responsibility for copyright/the above that they are all too willing to sell to us but not support us with that knowledge.
I have Mac OS X Snow Leopard version 10.6.2 (2009 bought in 2010)

Thank you Klaus1.The large font, I copied and pasted from my mail box.I'm visually impaired...not to a huge degree but it helps to use the large font.I believe you are right about the copyright on the imac stuff but if facebook decide otherwise, you have to reply electronically to their challenge.If you can't provide a reference directly from the copyright owner then they remove the video.I believe this is a programmed response and no human is involved which now makes it impossible for me to get my video uploading restored.They detect added soundtrack automatically and then challenge.There are many others in the same boat and facebook will not communicate.They have various discussion sites on which I have left messages including Mark Zuckerbergs own facebook but I don't think anyone from facebook ever reads them.I intend to start a second facebook which I can use purely to get my videos uploaded as a lot of my friends enjoy them BUT don't want fall foul of their programming again.If only iMac would put something on the net to this effect.I think it is so unfair that with modern technology it is impossible to contact these large conglomerates personally and receive an email response.I tried emailing [email protected] but I got a failure notice.If you have any ideas on how to get verification from apple direct, I would be very grateful.Thank You.

Uploading MP4 video to iCloud photos fails

I am trying to upload a 25MB MP4 video to iCloud photos yet I keep on receiving an error indicating 'JPEG format only'
I checked that you should be able to upload MP4 videos via iCloud on my PC so I can then view on my iphone 6.
Can anyone help?

I see this question in a lot of places and in several Apple discussion groups. I've tried a number of the proposed solutions. I have 99GBs to upload. I got about 30GB uploaded twice, but then it kept stalling there (I have plenty of space). The solution that came closest was for me to turn off icloud, shut down Photos, rebuild Photos library (I think it's cntrl + option + double click on Photos icon), then start it all again. This let me get 60GB up fairly quickly, but it's been stuck there for a few days now. I also took my iMac into work and hooked it up to the bigger system there, since many people proposed doing that, assuming that those environments have bigger "pipes." Anyway, I did all of this, and it's still stuck, uploading maybe one photo every six hours or so.

The option to upload pictures and videos to you tube has disappeared in i photo 9 How do I get it back so I can share to you tube

I use to click on share then you tube but
the option to upload pictures and videos to you tube has diappeared in i photo 9
How do I get it back so I can share to you tube

I do not believe that iPhoto has ever supported youtube uploads - the iPhone does - you may have found a third party plug in to do that - if so it would have been in the export options not the share options

Automatic upload feature in Photo Stream

I am confused with the 'Automatic Upload' feature in photo stream within iPhoto. Hopefully you can help.
The way I understand this feature is if I import a photo within iPhoto and the automatic upload feature is enabled, it will automatically put the imported photo into the photo stream such that it will be on all my ios devices. Now this where it gets confusing. In iPhoto I do not see the photo in my photostream event folder. I do see it in photo stream on ios devices)iphone and iPad). In iPhoto the photo is currently in the 'Import' folder. So where does the photo in the import go when I do another import. And...when photo stream d/l's pictures to monthstream folder, will there now be 2 copies of that same picture in iPhoto.
I hope this is clear and you understand what I am trying to decipher.

Thanks for answering.
Cause I have some photos want to do some post processing in ipad via some tools like snapspeed.
It happended to be the recently imported photos. So my work flow is to get the photo from photostream in ipad.
After finishing post processing, it automatically creates a new photo in photostream (which I love that).
And I can easily get the photo in my iMac via photo stream.
That's why I found the resolution changed, cause at first I even want to replace my original one.
So I think if I want preserver the resolution, maybe I can use your way.
Thanks agiain.

Facebook tags in uploaded album not linked to profile

I saw a lot of threads on this subject but nothing really solved my problem. Also they all seem rather out-dated, so maybe there are some new tricks I don't know of.
I spent hours over hours tagging faces in iPhoto after syncing my facebook account, and when I was finally done, decided to upload to a Facebook album.
90% of the faces, including mine and my wife's, appeared as tags that are not linked to profiles (font is black and you can't link them back to the profile).
Things I tried:
1. Manually making sure the e-mail field in each face is "<facebook_user_id>@facebook.com"
2. Manually tagging a photo in facebook, importing it back to the library, merging the created Facebook face with the other face.
3. Importing a different Facebook album with tags for most faces I need to the library, merging Facebook faces with non-FB faces.
And all of this didn't help.
I think it might help for future photos I'll upload, but existing ones stay the same.
I really don't want to re-upload the photos (because some people already liked and commented on them), or to re-tag everything (because I spent hours doing so already).
This is so annoying, it makes the whole faces feature + facebook integration on iPhoto pretty much worthless.
Any ideas whatsoever of how I can workaround this issue?

Have you reimported your media following a crash and are the affected tracks in .wav format? These don't carry a tag and on reimport all iTunes picks up is the file name. If you have an older library file that you can restore I have a tool to reconnect the library to the tracks that will have been relocated. Or if everything is on your classic you could try one of the tools in Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

IPhone 6 how to upload fhd 60fps videos to youtube?

iPhone 6 how to upload fhd 60fps videos to youtube?
And how about slow motion videos ??

The options made avaialble for uploading a photo direct from the Photos app is it.
To upload a photo to FaceBook, you can use the FaceBook app for the iPhone. There is also an app called iLoader for FaceBook which provides for uploading multiple photos to FaceBook and uploading videos captured by the iPhone to FaceBook.There are probably more that do the same or similar, but I'm familiar with iLoader.

I have the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) turned on. The photos from my iPhone do get uploaded to the iCloud. The photos are then downloaded to my wife's iPhone (we share the iCloud account). How do I keep the photos from downloading to my wife's iPhone

I do not want all the photos from my iPhone downloading to my wife's iPhone from iCloud? We share an iCloud account. How can I prevent the download to my wife's iPhone from iCloud. .The "Upload to My Photo Stream" is turned off on my iPhone. . I am running 8.1.3.
I have a related question. In order to same space on my iPhone is there a way to upload the photos to the iCloud and then delete them from my iPhone.

The way to keep the photos from downloading to your wife's phone would be for her to go to Settings > iCloud > Photos > and turn off iCloud Photo Library. If that isn't an option, the other option would be for her to have her own Apple ID ( and possibly explore the new family sharing options https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/ )
Regarding the "related question" see the quotes below from iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album.
If you want to reduce the space used by photos on your phone, rather than deleting them see the following:
How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.

Upload feature

I am creating a a website for someone else who would like the option of uploading there own pictures to the photo gallery if anyone knows any java script or HTML that will allow me to add this feature or knows were to find it I would greatly appreciate it

Hello,
I think you want the site owner to update the images in the photo gallery himself. If this is the case then it can be done using In Browser Editing.
You can refer to the link below to understand how it works.

Hi all - i can upload my photos to MobileMe and view them on my appletv - no problem at all
but when i try to upload a video (which it is happy for me to do) - it comes up with a ? when i try to play it
any ideas?
All software (inc apple tv is up to date)
cheers

Have you uploaded it to a Photo gallery?
Someone posted the other day that videos ib Photo Galleries don't work but do if uploaded as videos.
I can certainly view MobileMe videos I made ages ago on AppleTv.
I'd be surprised if the iPhone video format is wrong for AppleTV, as it adds another argument for iPhones users to get MobieMe, but you never know....

Problem Uploading and Sharing Video Files

I just uploaded a 3.3GB h.264 Quicktime movie to Creative Cloud. It took many hours. Now that it's finished uploading, I can't figure out how to play the video while logged into Creative Cloud, despite that fact that under information it's recognized as a mov and 3.3GB. And when I try to share using the link-in-email option, my friend can't play the movie or download it. When he tries to download it, nothing connects. Creative Cloud seems to be treating this movie as a single still image or something. Suggestions as to how to solve these upload and share video problems? I have a 2011 MacBook Pro with all possible upgrades, Mac OS X Version 10.6.8. Any help here much appreciated. One of the reasons I signed on for a year with Creative Cloud was to utilize this 20GB to share video in the way I've done through Dropbox.

Thanks for the reply, Dave, but I don't think this is the problem. I've uploaded this h.264 Quicktime (which plays fine before uploading) a few times now and cannot download or share due to a very long period of "Connecting...", then the message "Problem loading page. The connection was reset. The conection to the server was reset while the page was loading. - The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. - If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. - If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web." Then I'm given the option to "try again". This or a similar message is what others get when trying to download when I try to share the file with them using the link-in-email method, and neither I nor any of those I try to share this with are having problems with internet connectiions or downloading other large video files from the internet. The reason I suspect that Creative Cloud can't deal with downloading larger files such as this 3.3GB Quicktime is that I have no problem uploading, downloading or sharing small Quicktime movies through CC, and they are identified the same way and look the same when uploaded to CC. I also have no problem downloading much larger video files from other sites on the internet, such as feature length films that are a lot larger than 3.3GB. It seems like only things that download quickly don't time-out, regardless of what browser I'm using. Does Creative Cloud's download system rely on files being able to be downloaded quickly in full before a browser's time-out? As I've mentioned before, I have no problem uploading, downloading, sharing, etc. using Dropbox. Long explanation here, I know, but I thought all this info might help in figuring things out. Any ideas as to what's going on?
