Unable to transfer large video

I have a five minute video on my iPad that is too large to mail, and causes an error message when I try to transfer it to my PC. Has anyone encountered this problem.

the question is why are you sending such large files thru Bluetooth and not copying it via USB. Bluetooth was never designed to transfer large files, and as the file size increases, the potential for something to go wrong also increases. there is probably no fix for any phone mate, sorry.

Unable to download large videos taken with my 4S phone. 1-3G

I have taken several videos of my boys sports, but find myself unable to download the videos to my computer or portable hard drive. Videos were taken with my IPhone and are 3-7 minutes long. Up to 3gig of memory on just one video.
Trying to download to a Windows HP computer. When plugging in the phone to sync...it will go for 30 min and then state. (ITunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer) I have tried multiple times, rebooted, made sure everything is up to date.
When opening the files up like a camera where you can drag or tried copy and paste the files will attempt to save. Sometimes the files looks saved but there is ZERO Mb saved, just the file name. Other time I was able to get a file save, but it will not play, just a very fragmented video that looks like pictures taken every 30 seconds.
Please help

Sometimes syncing will have problems with very large video files like this. I'm not sure you will be able to overcome this, but if the videos are important enough you may consider purchasing 3rd party software such as Touch Copy to transfer them.

Unable to transfer large files from MB to External HDs

Hi,
This may be an unusual one. My 1st edition Macbook won't let me transfer large files to my external hard-drives, either by USB, Ethernet or wirelessly through my home wi-fi network.
I've started video editing so I'm importing DVcam tapes through firewire from the camera. A full DV tape translates to about 8-12gb I think.
Using iMovie and saving the import to my Freecom 3.5inch network harddrive vis USB or ethernet, it fails saying 'Unexpected error, error code 1309'.
When I try quicktime pro instead to import the tape to the external HD, I get 'Operation could not be completed, An attempt to add a resource to the file failed'. This happens too with my WD 2.5inch external drive.
However, there is no such problem when I import to the MB's internal harddrive. When I then try and shift the large file off the laptop to an external drive, via USB, ethernet of wirelessly, for editing and save keeping, it fails half way through.
I have the same problem when I try back-up my 17gb virtual windows machine I use with VMware fusion off the laptop to an external drive.
I am currently burning an 18gb iMovie project from the MB's internal HD, over 5 DVDs using Toast's disc-spanning and will reimport them to the external, which is really time consuming.
Also to note, Final Cut Express doesn't have these problems as it seems to break up what would be an 18gb movie file into several smaller files, which my MB is quiet happy to let go onto an external drive. However, the problem re-emerges on Final Cut Ex when I try and import a HDV tape. Possibly FCE isn't breaking them up into small enough pieces for my MB to handle?
Any ideas why this is happening and what I can do to fix it? Or does this mean a new laptop?

I'm a bit late to the party, but specifically there's a 4GB file size limit in the FAT32 format that is standard on many external hard drives. I've run across this problem before, and usually it copies over most of the file and then quits when it reaches the limit.

How can i transfer large video from my iphone

I have a large video on my iphone 4s that will not transfer by E-mail, Facebook, Utube, text or USB. When I plug in the USB to my computer it will upload everything except my video it remains on my phone. I really need this video for a student is there a way to get it from my phone to a computer?

Is your computer a Windows PC running XP?
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
Windows XP cannot import video files larger than 500 MB using Camera and Scanner Wizard. You can transfer these files directly from your device by selecting them in My Computer and dragging or copying the movie files to your computer's hard drive.

Cannot transfer large video from iPhone 4S

Hi all,
I have an iPhone 4S and recently shot a video which turned out to be about 50 minutes.
Now, I'm trying to transfer it to my Mac to free up space on my phone, but when I try to download it through iPhoto/Image Capture, the video doesn't come up at all in the list - the video is fine IMG_521, but the items skip from IMG_520 to IMG_522, not allowing me the option to download the video to my Mac at all.
I can view the video just fine on my iPhone and the three files preceding the large video are all 2-8 minute videos and have downloaded perfectly fine on to my Mac.
The video is really important but is taking up so much space on my iPhone - so, any help would be hugely appreciated.

Can't transfer large video file to PC from iPhone

16gb iPhone 5s PC running Windows 8.1
video 7gb, no extra apps on phone
I can't transfer the video on my iPhone to my PC. Whenever i pplug the phone in to my computer, only the actual photos saved as JPEG show up. I have tried unlocking my phone before connecting, still no video. Tried right clicking the folder in the "devices and drives" list, it will not bring up the video.
What am I missing here?

You could check your approach against this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. If you are still having trouble you could try an app that will send it wirelessly, such as PhotoSync.

Cannot transfer large video files to PC

This seems to be a common problem according to a google search but I have not seen a solution. I have a brand new 16G 3GS iphone and cannot transfer a largish video file (768MB) to my PC using any method (file manager, itunes, windows camera download etc). I just end up with a 0kb file. Smaller files work fine. Any help?

Me too. I tried to trim the video into smaller parts for transfer but it the trimmed copy doesn't show-up in File Explorer. I'll let you know if I figure out a way.

Sorry, kcrail, this is a Community Forum. All support is done here. (BTW, posting your phone number in a Public Forum is somewhat akin to writing it on the wall of the bus station. Never a good idea!)
Since you are running Windows 2000, you most likely have a pretty old version of Windows Media Player. Easiest thing for you to do would be to puchase a USB Card Reader that supports Micro SD cards, and simply drag and drop your music to the /AUDIO folder on the card. Put the card back into your phone and you're done!

HT201302 I have a large video on my ipad that I would like to transfer to a computer. But my computer (using various software that came with Windows 7) does not see this video, although it sees all the other videos on my ipad. This video is too big to t

I have a large video on my ipad that I need to transfer to my PC (a window 7). I could also use a windows 8 if that would help. But all of the applications I have tried do not see this large video (52 mins) even though they transfer smaller videos fine. The ipad will not let me trim the video, saying it is too large. This is true even though I only want to trim the original, and not create a new video. (Actually it refuses before it gets to the choice of creating something new or just eliminating something from the original). I have been to an Apple store, but the people there only could recommend that I try some alternate applications to do the transfer (Kodak EasyShare). I don't have much faith this will work. I think I have this application on an old PC, and it is not something I want on my new computers.
Is it possibled the size of this video just violates the transfer formats for files over USB? If so, I will just delete the video and move on. But the video is really something I wanted to save. I would be happy to eliminate most of the video, but the ipad will not let me trim it.
I also tried to import the video with Windows Moviemaker (free with W7). It also does not see this file, but works fine on the other videos on the ipad.

After downloading pictures to computer I am unable to transfer photos to disk because the photos are too large. how do I reduce them to fit

After downloading photos off of my 4s onto my Mac I am unable to transfer photo's to a disk because they are said to be to large. is there a solution

Best if you try and explain what you are trying to acheive.
Iphoto is a different paradigm than you're used to. I don't understand why you are trying to transfer your edited photos back to an external disk.
There are tutorials here
