How to Upload a Very Large Video on my MacBook?

I have a large video file on my camera and both iphoto and image capture won't upload it. The camera is a Canon Powershot SD 750. Both iphoto and image capture say they are uploading, but after a while iphoto says it is done without uploading the video, and image capture just sits there and says it is transferring and never finishes. The video is probably a little under 2gb in size. I currently have around 4gb of space in my computer hard drive.
Any other suggestions on how to get it onto my computer?

Welcome to the forum!
First and foremost, ALWAYS leave at least 10% free space on ALL hard drives ... especially the boot drive. The OS uses the free space for temp and swap files. Without enough free space things will start getting weird.
Since there's isn't enough free space on your boot drive, delete any unneeded files or move them to another drive.

How do I send a large video off my ipad to an email account?

How do I send a large video from my ipad to an email account?

You don't
most e-mail accounts have a limit. Of course this also depends on what you mean by 'large'. My yahoo caps out at 25 megs per mail.
Your best bet would be to look into a service like dropbox. upload it there then e-mail the access codes to those you want to share it with and they can download and view it

How do share a very large file?

How do share a very large file?

Do you want to send a GarageBand project or the bounced audio file? To send an audio file is not critical, but if you want to send the project use "File > Compress" to create a .zip file of the project before you send it.
If you have a Dropbox account, I'd simply copy the file into the Dropbox "public" folder and mail the link. Right-click the file in the Dropbox, then choose Dropbox > Copy Public Link. This copies an Internet link to your file that you can paste anywhere: emails, instant messages, blogs, etc.
2 GB on Dropbox are free. https://www.dropbox.com/help/category/Sharing

How can I send a large video file from my iPhone 4?

How can I send (by text) a (fairly) large video file from my iPhone 4 without it getting compressed first?
If that's not possible is there a way to uncompress the video file one it is received onto the receiving iPhone?
Or is there a way to sync or transfer a video file from iPhone to iPhone?

ExFAT would be the best file system format, as it will handle files greater than 4GB.
If exFAT is not available, go for FAT32.
Just FAT is too limiting, so avoid that

How do I transfer a large video (31minutes) from my Iphone 5s to my macbook air?

I have tried importing a large video (31 minutes long) from my Iphone 5s to my Macbook Air through iphoto but it keeps getting rejected.
I keep receiving this message "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image."
Please guide me on how to proceed.
Bella

Have you tried resetting the iPhone and rebooting the Mac? I don't think iPhoto has an import size limitation, but if you still have trouble then perhaps using a cloud service like Dropbox as an intermediary will get the job done.

How can you convert a large video file from the photo cache of an iphone3g to a playable file on a pc?

how does one transfer a large ( 1gb) video file from an iphone3g photo cache to a pc in a playable format?

The same way you would import any photo/video from a digital camera. Connect the iPhone to the computer and import the file. Then it can be played with Quicktime or any software that supports that file format.

How to use and publish large video files in presenter 7 ?

I am creating video intensive e-learning contents in presenter 7 (updated to 7.05).
I generally, use 2 or 3 flv files (up to 50 MB size) in my presentation.
After I publish my presentation in a web site, users must wait too long for watching any single video.
Is there any method to use large video files (flv or any format) in presenter 7 and users can watch videos without any delay?
Best regards.

The problem you're facing is that Adobe Presenter output video playback is primarily Progressive Download rather than Streaming.
Options, for you, include:
1) Figure out a streaming video solution
2) Use Adobe Media Encoder to compress/squash your video into more manageable sizes before importing the video into Presenter. I have found a decent compromise is the Web Medium preset as its datarate of 600kbps is just about the most a DSL connection can handle.
3) Split your videos (instead of 2-3 50MB files, you'd have 4-6 25MB files).

How to get my Music and videos from my Macbook pro to apple TV

I have some music and videos from my macbook that i have added to itunes from CD's and DVDs. Whenever i try to play music or movies on my apple TV it says that there is no music in the library. Is this because the items were not bought on itunes and were added from my computer??

If the music and video is compatible, it should play from Computers.
The Mac and iTunes must be running, the media files must be accessible on an internal or attached external drive.
I assume you have enabled Home Sharing.

How to UpLoad a Two Minute Video to Utube?

I'm about to upload a video to Utube for the first time. It's very short - a couple of minutes - and the file size is 863.7 MB. Utube allows a file size up to 2GB. I'm wondering about export format from iMovie. Since the video is so short and under 2 GB, I exported it at Full Quality. Is that going to work on Utube? I just tried to start the upload process onto Utube but it seemed like it was going to take quite a long while. Is that to be expected? I canceled the upload and decided I better ask you.
If I need to export at a different quality level, please advise. Video is HDV. I tried exporting at iMovie's "email" setting (video was way too small) and then the "web streaming" level (video was still pretty small and the resolution wasn't good). So that's why I thought I'd go with "full quality" since it's such a short video.
Thank you for your help!

.. You didn't mention bit rate in your suggestions, so I went with the default setting. Bit rate has to do with audio quality, correct?
audio, too.. but (much) more important with video (has a bitrate too ... ) :
you can tell a compressor to generate 1000x1000 pixel.. but, if the bitrate is too (s)low, you still get those blocky artifacts.. example: same res, diff. bitrate ..
see the difference? (ok, unrealistic example.. for demonstration only .. )
the LEGO-bricks are NOT due to low res, but due to low bitrate
unfortunately, you can not force the iM-output-engine to specific bitrate.. but you can tell a max. ..
if you want more control, you need other encoders.. (e.g. long-gone VisualHub) ...-

How do I split a large video file into seperate episodes/files?

Hello all,
I have a 52 minute long video that I need to split into 3 seperate files before I can edit it (so I can upload it to youtube as 3 separate episodes). I know how to split layers and do all the basic editing etcetera, but I am stumped on how to turn those split layers into separate files.
Any help on this issue is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I thought of a work around that I should have thought of days ago. It can even be done in windows movie maker it's that simple.
I will end up just splitting the original video clip and deleting the latter half of the video and saving the first clip and then reloading the original source file again and repeating the process with the following clip.
I can include a little bit of the previous episode in the following one that way as well. Tried rendering the full 52 minute video but it ended up stuck on 99% so just stopped and I will go about splitting it in the above mentioned way.
However, thanks for the comments both of you.

How to export to very large dimensions?

I need to export a file to the specs below, however, every time I try I get a 'Error compiling movie - Unknown error'.
Resolution 2732 pixels (w) x 768 pixels (h).
32:9 Landscape format.
File format is MPEG-4/H.264 AVC at 20Mbps.
Frame rate is 25 as per PAL standard.
This error has been replicated across a number of fairly high spec computers so I don't think it is an issue with disk space etc. We're working off the assumption that it's the large dimensions causing the problem.
The only solution we can come up with is to export to smaller dimensions (which we have done successfully) and then upscale but even that is proving challenging!
Any suggestions or ideas are very welcome!

Hi,
I was also unable to reproduce the error using your export specs.
Could you provide answers to these:
Are you able to reproduce this issue with multiple projects?
Did you try increasing the "level" to 5.1 under video settings?
What is the specs of original media used in the project?
Regards

How can I move a large video file from my iphone ... iMac / PC

I have a large iPhone Video File that I cannot transfer from my iphone to my flashdrive as it is too big.
I realize that I can reformat an empty flash drive using Disk Utilities and I should then be able to transfer the file.
My question: What do I select when reformating the flash drive so that it will be accepted by both a PC and an iMac?
