IMovie will not upload to Vimeo

I use iMovie to upload to YouTube all the time and it has always worked great. I noticed that the new version of iMovie has the ability also to upload to Vimeo. I have a Vimeo account so I chose the upload to Vimeo option and entered in my password, but nothing happened. IMovie didn’t give me either a progress bar or an error message. It just didn’t do anything. I checked my password to make sure it is correct. I do not understand why iMovie will not upload to Vimeo. How do I fix this?

I had the same problem. Looks like iMovie doesn't give any feedback when the login to Vimeo fails.
The most likely problem is that your "vimeo user account name" is *not* your full name (say "Marc-André Lafortune"), but your "shortcut url" (in my case "malafortune"). You can set this in vimeo by using this link: http://vimeo.com/settings/shortcut
This is what you must enter when you setup your account in iMovie. If that is correct and your password is good too, you will see a progress bar after the login is successful (2-3 seconds).
HTH
If anyone from Apple is reading this: iMovie should be fixed by
1) giving feedback when login fails
2) ideally change "user account name" for "shortcut URL" or similar, with a popup like "what is this?"
3) only accept the characters that are accepted by Vimeo for the shortcut URL (letters and numbers, no spaces, etc...)

  • IMovie will not upload my video

    I click import and I select the movie but it will not upload. It lets my select it and press import, but nothing happens. I also tried dragging the video into the event, but it doesn't do anything. The sign shows up, but it doesn't do anything.

    Me too - iMovie video, uploaded over 6 months ago to My Gallery, accessed via Safari 4.0 on my MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, is displayed on the screen with the Apple equivalent of the Microsoft spinning hour-glass (you know, the clockwise tick thing) with a question mark sat in the middle of it all. And the video completely refuses to play. It used to play last year... Oddly, the video next to it plays fine.
    I know it's an Apple (Snow) Leopard Safari problem because the video plays fine when I use Firefox on the same MacBook Pro. And it plays fine with Safari on my Windows laptop from work. I have even tried uninstalling Apple Safari (drag and drop to the Trash) and then reinstalling. I've got to the point where I'm thinking of dropping Safari altogether, even if it does have nice MobileMe sync settings...
    Come on Apple, what's the craic here?

  • IMovie WILL NOT upload to iCloud Drive

    For some reason my iMovie App on my Macbook will not upload the videos to the cloud. I make a lot of videos for myself, my friends and for youtube, and i really need them to backup and they won't show up in iCloud Drive. I have checked the iCloud Drive settings and iMovie is checked and I have tried uploading it through the iMovie folder in iCloud website in the iDrive files and it won't work because it says the files must be in a format iMovie can open. I have also tried doing it through the iDrive folders on my Macbook and it still won't work. What is going on? Is my macbook broken, or something?

    Looks like this has been solved by yesterdays IOS8 update - thanks!

  • TS3695 Imovie will not allow me to export my movie to Vimeo?

    Imovie will not allow me to export my movie to Vimeo because it is bigger than 500mb even though I have Vimeo Plus! Is there any solution?

    don't think so...I just posted the same question...seems to be a major glitch on Apple's part

  • Imovie will not let me load a movie to You Tube error message say wrong user name and password when it is right

    imovie will not let me load a movie to You Tube. The error message from imovie says it is the wrong password and user name. I rechecked it and it is right.

    It can be tricky sometimes.  Go to your youtube account in Safari and try logging in.  They might have changed the security requirements.  In addition, you might find this software easier to use for uploading video to youtube.

  • Imovie 11 not uploading to youtube

    Edit a video in iMovie 11, as I have always done.  Current upload to YOUTUBE continues to lose connection to server.  My internet connection is running correctly.  I have uploaded videos directly to youtube via the site with no problems to test if there was a connection to server issue as well.
    I tried to upload video to via the youtube site and it stops uploading around 60%.  Mind you I DID upload this same video 3 days ago after trying 13 times via the youtube site.  I had to take it down because I accidently allowed youtube to do one of the "fixes" to my videdo and it ruined it and I was able to unapply it.
    So 3 days later my video will NOT upload via iMovie 11 or directly from the site.
    The file is only 312.1 MB and the format is .mov
    So not sure why I am having issues.

    I think this may be the quickest workaround:
    Go to Share Menu > Export Movie... (set it to 720p) and save it to the Desktop
    Open the YouTube website in your favorite web browser, login to your account.
    Go to the YouTube upload page, and have it upload the video fromo your Desktop
    The beauty of this versus the iMovie upload is the status messages are a little more reassuring as it progresses. I always feel like I know how much longer I need to wait. And then at the end it gives you the URL to see the video after it post-processes the whole thing. So publishing direct, will get around this problem.
    As for the problem, itself. I've ready many people's posts to the iMovie Discussion group with a similar YouTube upload from iMovie problem. No one to my recollection has written back with a description of a fix for this. Some people couldn't login to YouTube at all through iMovie it wouldn't accept their credentials. That was fixed by using the correct username for the YouTube account after Google took them over (some people had a username, other used an email address for their username). It sounds more like the upload is failing than the username and password not being accepted. So I would just do the workaround unless you wanted to test iMovie again in the future to see if it suddenly starts working again.

  • Index.htm will NOT upload . . .  desperate : /

    This is my own site which I've run for 3 years. Same
    computer, same program, didn't touch site set up, firewalls or
    anything. This morning I make a few quick text changes to the
    homepage and the file will not upload. It has in fact wiped out my
    entire homepage because once it did kind of upload but some "files
    were skipped during the operation". Yeah. Some files. Like, all of
    them. (
    http://www.ExchangeHJ.com)
    The error is "no response from server" However, I created
    this file:
    http://www.exchangehj.com/test.html
    and it uploaded just fine.
    I can also connect to other sites on different servers and
    upload fine.
    It appears to be just index.htm. I have tried to change the
    name to default.html, still will not upload
    (Made switch to CS3 last year so all newer files are html and
    old files are htm, has never caused a problem as long as the links
    are right everywhere)
    Please, any ideas? This is a online company web site, a blank
    homepage is not okay. And it's killing my saturday . . . I just
    wanted to post a quick note to the site :(
    The rest of the site is still there:
    http://www.exchangehj.com/equineMarketing.htm
    If you try to go to home page from there you get Page Not
    Found (it calls specifically for index.htm)
    If you just type site url it come up blank.
    help. thank you.

  • IPOD 5th generation will not upload new games

    I purchased a new game and it will not upload it on my IPOD. It says it needs the 1.2 version which it has.
    I installed Itunes 7 and when the ipod is sync it says it's syncing software is version 1.2. I restored my IPOD and it still did not eliminate the problem.
    I can not find a way to contact support. It keeps looping me to articles and will not give me an email address or phone number.
    Someone please help.
    PC   Windows XP   none

    I finally got the answer in the Itunes discussion section.
    You must "authorize" your PC to use games / music purchased from the Store.
    Click on the "Store icon"
    Go in "Store" -> "Authorize PC" It will authorize your IPOD to be able to load games. Otherwise, double-clic the image of the game between the Library column and the game description: a pop-up window will be prompted and you can authorize your pc.

  • I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

    I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

    In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
    Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
    Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.
    If it does contain data...

    Hello BassoonPlayer,
    Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using.  FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in.  This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly.  By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you.  Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

  • Widget Spry ImageSlide show will not upload - error message

  • IMovie will not import or play the clips at the proper speed and the audio and video do not match up.

    i have a samsung hd camcorder. it records at 40 fps, but iMovie will not play the clips at the proper speed and the audio and video do not match up. I have tried to record at standard quality to no avail. Help. thanks in advance.

    samsung sc-hmx10c     ntsc
    im guessing that is the speed it records at due to the fact imovie puts a blue 40 at the top left corner of every clip i import.

  • Dreamweaver will not upload file to Server

    I am having an issue uploading files to the server with Dreamweaver. I have been using Creative Cloud for 6 months and the issue started Monday.
    If I select a file, click put icon the FTP access connects to the server successfully. However, the FTP log says "file not transferred - same" and does not transfer the file to the server. The file has been edited, saved and shows the changes in Dreamweaver and in my browser locally.
    I have rebuilt the site cache in Dreamweaver going to Site -> Advanced -> Rebuild Site Cache. Did not resolve the issue.
    I deleted the file on the server (using another FTP program) and Dreamweaver still will not upload the .html file to the server, thus the file is missing. Then I have to upload via another FTP program.
    I am able to upload edited files successfully from another computer that is using Dreamweaver CS 6, so it is not a server problem.
    Does anyone know how to correct this?

    Are both computers on the same router? Can you move the computer that's failing to upload onto a different network?
    I ran into something similar to this a while back, only I couldn't get it to work from any machine on my home network, it was fine from the office, but it wouldn't upload anything at home. Turned out my router went bad and didn't like certain kinds of traffic. I ended up replacing it and everything worked fine.

  • Itunes Match: iTunes will match songs in library, will not upload songs not in library.It

    Itunes match is going through the endless 3 step cycle for several days now. It will match songs that are in the Itunes Library, it will not upload any songs that are not "matched"
    I have tried alot of solutions, turn off match, turn back on, deauthorize, authorize, reboot, exit itunes, delete songs, add songs, turn off auto renew, plug in ethernet, wifi, basically anything posted on here.
    Anyones help would be greatly appreciated. Ive been an Apple customer for decades, and this is one of the times where I am greatly disappointed. Thanks.

    Yes, itunes just sets a pointer to the Windows files in its ITL database.http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
    If you have itunes preference to copy files to your itunes music folder, then it does copy them there and you might now have two copies of the same song. But itunes will probably be using the copy in the itunes music folder.
