Publishing to YouTube from iMovie?

I don't do this very often.  I've made a anolther clip to upload to YouTube, and I've forgotten how to upload it.  I know you can't upload it directly from iMovie.  Can someone direct me to the instructions on how to do this?
Thank you.

Rather than using the iMovie preset to share to YouTube, try uploading by using the uploader built-in to YouTube.
Export from iMovie using Share > Export Movie. Choose an appropriate size, such as Medium, Large, HD 720p or HD 1080p. Give it a name and location to save to (say, Desktop). YouTube will let you navigate to this movie file. You can also use the file elsewhere, say for burning a DVD or playback on a media player and so forth.
Depending on the export size (resolution), the file will be either .mov or .m4v (both will be in H.264 format, which is the same type of file exported when using the Share > YouTube option).

  • Problem uploading to Youtube from iMovie 9.0.4

    When I try to upload a video to Youtube from iMovie 9.0.4, I get an alert..."Username and Password do not match". I have double checked the username and pswrd and they are correct
    Pls help.

    Glad I found this thread!  Keith's suggestion of eliminating use of quotes in tags area was spot on. I removed the quotes and video now uploaded successfully.
    I also was baffled at why publishing my video from iMovie to youtube would not work. No error, just would hang.  I use an iPad 3 with iMovie for iPad ($4.99 download). After editing my video I was ready to upload.  Filled in all the info in youtube upload area (title, description, tags (including quotes around phrases) as well as changing defaults to HD and public).  After watching the progress bar reach the end, the process would just hang without any error being displayed. Tried redoing a few times, but same hanging result.
    Once I found this thread, I said why not try and remove the quotes in the tag section...and amazingly, it worked perfectly...upload completed after the progress bar was finished.  Marvelous!  I will then go to YouTube to update the keyword phrases in quotes
    Thanks Keith... Who would have thought the quotation marks were the culprit

  • How to actually publish to YouTube from Adobe Media Encoder

    Hello,
    Hope someone can help me with the setting for this.
    I used to encode with Squeeze and they had a really simple way of publishing your encoded files automatically to YouTube. All you had to do was select the publishing option for YouTube, enter your YouTube account details (user name and password), and then hit verify for the software to check the path way was good and everything checked out.
    This worked beautifully as all my work automatically appeared on my YouTube channel.
    I  have now switched from Avid to the full Adobe Creative Suite.
    When I encode in Media Encoder there is a section for FTP
    Unfortunately, I have no idea what the complex terminology is. It wants to know what the port number for YouTube is. I have no idea. Or what server it needs to be uploaded too. Again, i haven't got a clue. How are you supposed to know the Remote Directory?
    I know my YouTube account name and password, thats about it.
    Can anyone out there tell me if and how I could use the FTP section in a preset to automatically upload to a YouTube account?
    Would be really grateful!
    Thanks in advance
    Nick

    It currently is not possible to upload directly to YouTube with Premiere Pro or Media Encoder. This is something that has been requested in the past and we are considering for future releases.

  • Cannot publish to Youtube from iOS Video Album

    Okay, I am trying to publish directly from the iOS7 Photo App/feature on an iPhone 5, and I continuously get "Authorization Error: Incorrect username or password" when I try to log into YouTube (which I am directed to do automatically.) I have tried:
    1. Logging into the YT app first
    2. Logging into Google through Safari
    3. Logging into the YT mobile site in Safari
    4. Restoring my iphone
    5. Loading/Reloading/Restarting the iPhone.
    Nothing!

    Do you mean File>Send to Compressor? Do you not have that? Share>Compressor Settings is in the Destinations preferences.

  • Publishing a video from iMovie

    I edited a video and when it was time to save it, I received a notice that this movie has already been published. Your recent changes will need to be uploaded. I never published anything. How can I find out what happened and where that movie went?
    Also can you take a movie out of trash and add it back to your projects?

    Sounds like you either published it to YouTube or MobileMe.

  • I am having trouble uploading videos to YouTube from iMovie. Every since I got a copyright warning I haven't been able to upload. Any help?

    Any help? I can't upload to youtube

    I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
    And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
    And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

  • "Youtube reported an unknown error" everytime I try to publish to youtube

    Lately, everytime I try to publish a video from iMovie to YouTube, I get an error message saying "YouTube reported an unknown error". I end up having to export the movie before I can manually upload it to YouTube, which is quite time consuming. Is there a fix for this issue? I know for me it started when google bought out YouTube.

    I think I fixed this.
    Go to [https://account.services.mozilla.com/ your sync account], log in, and click clear your sync data.
    Then click the Sync now button on the error message.
    The error went away for me.

  • IMovie 11 error when publishing to Youtube

    Get the following error when attempting ro publish to Youtube.
    "Unable to prepare project for publishing. The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-50)"
    I have 71 Gb available from 500 GB (14%). I have also made sure all folders in the "Movie" folder have permissions set to Read/Write and verified and repaired my HDD.
    I just upgraded to iMovie 11 in hopes the problem would correct itself, but it did not.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Make sure you are using the right password for YouTube. A few months back, they had everyone link their YouTube account to a Google account. If so, you may need to use the YouTube username, but the Google account password.
    Try going to the YouTube web page and uploading it there. The same password should work.

  • IMovie '11 problem with audio when publishing to youtube or exporting, help

    I recently got iMovie '11 and its kinda buggy. One problem is when you try to publish a long (above 1 min.) the audio periodically skips forward in the video, but when you play it directly from imovie there is no problem. is there a way to fix this or get around it, because it is super annoying.

    I have been having the same problem. I have been using a PC for the past 5 years and using Pinnacle Studios, I had a Mac before using the PC but never owned one , I finally bought one during Thanks giving and started working on my next video on iMovie. Everything runs great but when you play back the video on imovie without moving the mouse or pausing it , some areas of the video itself, NOT THE SONG, will be cut off but when i put the mouse over the clip that has sound its there!!! What i finally did was import the video to my pc find every clip that had missing sound and put the sound in one by one. and all videos are the same file! if you want to see the that had missing audio here it is:

    heres the video after i fixed everything:

    Bartirn,
    I called Apple under my Mac support contract.  They were completely unfamiliar with the error you and I were encountering.   Updating to 10.8.5 didn't help.
    I'm stopping my TimeCapsule while I perform these tasks, but I don't know yet if I have a consistent work-around.

  • How can I get permission from imovie to use text in my uploaded monetized YouTube clips

    I am able to use imovie to edit movies. I use a small amount of text and no music from imovie. How do I obtain permission from imovie to use a text title for my monetized YouTube uploads?

    You do not need permission for this.

  • Best settings for exporting crisp video/graphic from iMovie to YouTube?

    Hi, I am working on a video for a client and after viewing on YouTube they had some issues with the type not looking "crisp," and I'm not sure how to fix it, not sure if it's a YouTube thing or something I am doing wrong.
    I am working in iMovie 6/HD on OS 10.4.11. I do my "type slides" in Photoshop and import them into the iMovie as photos (JPGs). I know some text/titles can be done in iMovie but there is very little control I have over what goes where, so by making my type slides in Photoshop I have more creative control to do what I want. I have done tests and it doesn't seem to matter what resolution the Photoshop files are when they're imported, the results are always the same.
    If anyone has a better suggestion for doing the type slides I'd gladly welcome them, but I think what I really need to know is the following:
    What are the best expert settings to export my iMovie file as, so that when I upload to YouTube, the quality stays fairly crisp? Or does YouTube's compression just negate anything I can do on my end?
    I have googled and found settings recs on other sites and other boards and tried a bunch of them and my results aren't any better than my original effort.
    From another post on this board I discovered I could play with the Filters setting when exporting, and I have set that to Sharpen and also used the Brightness filter to lighten the video (it was a little dark). I uploaded to YouTube and I think it is a little better, but would still love the info if anyone has a guaranteed rec for correct settings for YouTube video from iMovie HD/6.

    Hello Brian,
    Have you tried de-interlacing before exporting?
    Sometimes, when I'm in a rush, I would expand the Canvas/Viewer (viewed at 100%), pick the clearest frame, and do a screen capture.
    For example, with the captured image (in Photoshop), I have a marquee preset at 640x480 (NTSC). I created an action to crop, resize to 720x480, then set the Pixel Aspect Ratio to NTSC.

  • IMovie won't publish to YouTube

    I've tried publishing this project 2 times now...it takes about 2 hours to actually publish, but after the progress bar has filled, nothing happens. I've uploaded several times before and it usually tells me that it has published to youtube but may take some time before it's there kind of message, and then it gives me a button to go view it. But now I'm not getting that at all an it's extremely frustrating to wait 2 hours for it to not be published. The only thing I have seen as far as "solutions" is to export it to desktop and then use youtubes uploader. That isn't a solution, just a workaround. I don't want to do that because the export time is 6 Hours, which is ridiculous when the share option is there..and has worked in the past. Someone please help.

  • I am trying to publish video in YouTube through IMovie but it does not recognize my password. How do I get my password?

    Where can I retrieve my forgotten password?

    Try logging into YouTube from your browser.
    Usually, your Youtube Login would be the same as your GMail login.
    Several years ago, YouTube logins and Gmail logins were separate, but then they went through a campaign to combine them. In any event, you can log into your YouTUbe account on the web and then use the same password in iMovie.
    If it still does not work, try using your GMail email address as the account and then use the same password.
