How to export iMovie to YouTube

I've got Mavericks version 10.9.1 MBP; and am using iMovie 10.0.1. I have yet to be able to upload anything to YouTube, although was able to just fine with Mountain Lion. I've clicked "share" and selected YouTube, but am unable to see the progress bar. I see the circle in the top right, but it doesn't seem like anything is happening.
Before, I could export to QT, then upload from there. I don't seem to have that option on this one, to export to QT.
Suggestions?
Thanks

Since Maverick/iMovie '10 I prefer to do in in two steps because the one-step method (direct upload to YouTube) is not working properly. Exporting the movie (option share as a file) in the highest quality and, second step, upload your movie in YouTube works fine to me.

  • Mac pro won't export iMovie to youtube -- need firefox / google chrome but will this fix it and is it safe??

    i cant export my imovie to youtube because I dont have google chrome or firefox-- however i once downloaded google chrome to my windows lap top and it went spaz... unsure if this will happen to the mac?/ any help

    Sorry.  I do not have an answer.  My movie was much longer but only 640x480.  The upload page is different than it was the last time that I used it.  It is much simpler now but seemed confusing at first.  There was a line near the top of the window that made me think athere was a problem but the upload soon finished.  I think youtubes video quality has improved.  Maybeupload a previously uploaded file, change the name,  to see if it works

  • I made an iMovie, 6.0.3 using music from iTunes and photos from the Internet. It looked fine on iMovie, but when I uploaded it to youtube,some of the photo near the beginning was corrupted.What steps should I take to export iMovie for youtube?

    I made an iMovie, 6.0.3 using music from iTunes and photos from the Internet. It looked fine on iMovie, but when I uploaded it to youtube, some of the photo near the beginning were corrupted on youtube. I tried a different photo, and the corruption took place at the same moment of the video. How do I prepare the video for export to get it ready for youtube? I wasn't sure whether to clik web or web streaming. Am I supposed to clik Quick Time after I clik Share?

    I unfortunately cannot remember where I got the 'trrndlines' plugin... I assume that it must have been from CFX (as it is located under /Users/Dom/Library/iMovie/Plug-ins/cfx/XXXtrrndlines.bundle).
    As for what it does, I also do not know, as I do not think I ever used it in my previous video projects.
    At this stage, I think I just need to uninstall it so that iMovie doesnt try to use it.
    Do you know how to uninstall a CFX plugin in iMovie?
    NOTE: I have re-installed iMovie 6.0.4 (instead of iMovie 6.0.3), but still encounter the same issue.

  • How to export iMovie to desktop?

  • Problems with exporting imovie to youtube

    I cant export my imovie (new project) to youtube because when I click on share - all the other entries are greyed out and the only one that is highlighted is the last one which says remove.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following;
    1 - close iMovie.
    2 - open iDVD, set your theme, etc.
    3 - drag the iMovie project file into the iDVD menu window being sure to miss any drop zones present.
    This will let iDVD do the encoding of any transitions in iMovie instead of iMovie thus eliminating additional compressions to the movie.
    When you have the iDVD project as you want it use the File->Save as disk image menu option to save it as a disk image. That will allow you to preview the project using DVD Player to make sure the encoding was correct. Once you're happy with the disk image you can burn it to disk using Disk Utility at the slowest speed available. Also use top grade media like Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden -R disks.

  • How to export imovie project into current idvd project

    I currently have an idvd project that I have added lots of extra stuff to (slide shows, backgrounds, menus, etc.) I'd now like to add another movie to it from imovie that I have added chapter markers to, so it will run as a separate movie with chapters in idvd.
    Can this be done?

    Yes.
    In iMovie export the movie to the Media Browser and it will appear in the media selection area in iDVD.
    Just drag it into your DVD project.

  • How to export iMovie clips for import to Windows video editing programs?

    What export format creates an exact digital copy of mini-dv video which can be recognised and imported by Windows video editors?
    I need to give editable copies of DV to Windows users, The lowest common denominator is Windows Movie Maker, which does not recognise .dv files created by copying from the project's Media folder, or Sharing a Movie to DV stream.
    I want to burn data DVDs with clips or complete projects from iMovie which are equivalent to copying back to mini-DV tapes.
    Is Share to AVI my only option?
    If so, is there any loss in quality?
    iMac G5, MacBook, iMac 233 (R.I.P.)   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    after spending a few minutes on the net concerning that WindowMovieMaker, my guess is:
    WMM does NOT accept a "file.dv" ...
    but is does accept that same dv within an avi container... "file.avi"
    avi and mov are just containers, not formats, as a box of chocolate, "wrappers" for many codecs...
    try to export your clips as avi, and choose under compressor "DV"...- give that a try...
    DV is the same codec which is in use on miniDV tapes, and the same, iM uses internally... so, it should be no quality loss.. just a "wrapping"...
    (me no PCuser, just read that...)

  • Trying to export iMovie to youtube and it says lost communication with internet. I am on the internet?

    I get a lost communication prompt when i export to youtube.
    Also for another project I get no head room?

    I've tried everything, including exporting to Quicktime with the settings suggested by youtube...nothing seems to work and I keep getting the same message:  Unable to Prepare Project for Publishing.  The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-50)
    The original name of the project had parenthesis and I even renamed it so now its just simply "Going Nowhere"

  • How to export imovie videos

    Help whemn i click share nothing comes up

    Do you have MacKeeper installed? If so, you will need to uninstall it, then reinstall iMovie, in order to make the share options work.
    This is MacKeeper's fault, not iMovie's.

  • How do i export a video made in imovie to youtube in the best quality possible?

    how do i export a video made in imovie to youtube in the best quality possible?

    You can only export in the same resolution that you imported.
    That is if you shot in 720p you cannot export in 1080p.
    Share > YouTube and select the highest resolution available.

  • How to export an IMovie as a small file quicktime movie

    I have searched and searched for answers or tutorials explaining how to export an IMovie as a quicktime movie that is small enough for emailing and posting to the internet. If I use the default setting my quicktime movie ends up being over 500MB which is way to large for sharing. I tried exporting using the "custom" or "compression" settings but don't understand what H 264,DV Pal, etc. means.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    To get a movie to that size, you can 1) make it shorter. 2) make it a smaller dimension. Like scale it down from 1920x1080 to 320x240 3) Take away quality by reducing the bit rate, reducing the number of key frames, etc. 4) Reduce the frame rate from 30 frames per second down to maybe 15 frames per second. The resulting movie would be postage stamp size and not very good. Use h.264 because it compresses very well.
    By far the best way to send a movie is to post it to YouTube or similar site in full resolution and then link to it in your email.

    I wasn't scolding you in any way, just suggesting. Sorry if it came out other than I intended.
    The value in using the old thread is that if you have that question, perhaps others will too. So it is generally better to keep questions in the older thread, if they are directly on topic like this one was.
