Uploading Video Footage to Iphone?

  I'm purchasing these HD camcorder glasses: http://www.lorextechnology.com/HD-Sports-Cameras-and-HD-Video-Sunglasses/wide-an gle-video-sunglasses/prod270002.p - My Mac is broke, and I don't currently have a desktop. My question is, can I upload the video footage directly to my iphone via a USB cable or an SD card connection? Furthermore, only having about 4gb of available storage on my phone, would this even be feasible? About how much storage space does 20 or 30 minutes of HD video footage take? Any workarounds you guys can think of? This is for a big job project, and if I can't figure it out, my butt is grass!
P.S. - The only reason I need the footage in my iphone is because I need to edit it via imovie & other apps I use. So, even if I can store the HD footage in the cloud somewhere and access it from phone, that would be fine. Sorry, I'm like a caveman with a lot of this stuff, lol.

Well, I'll respond, but you may not like the answer.
There is no way to upload video to the iPhone without the use of iTunes. And, from there, you cannot edit the video. The only video that you can edit is what you have in the camera roll. I don't believe that you can upload video to edit in iMovie by any method, except to take the video with the phone. You might, and I stress might, be able to get it to something like Dropbox, but you cannot get it off the device you have without a computer. The iPhone does not support connecting a cable to it and downloading content.
I don't know if everyone would describe what you are asking as a problem, it is just something the iPhone won't support, and others realize that. Don't make the assumption that no one is thoughtful, since this is a user to user forum, and someone would need to be aware of a solution before posting something. You are going to need something to download the content of the camcorder to, and that cannot be the iPhone.

  • My iPad is logged into my iCloud account, but my wife's iTunes. I have uploaded video footage from my iPhone to my iCloud. It appears on the iPad but is not accessible in iMovie? What's the fix?

    You shouldn't have to change your iTunes account to not have to purchase it twice.  If your devices are using different iTunes IDs, just purchase it on one device, then import it to your iTunes library by connecting the device to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Once in iTunes, you should be able to sync it to your other device (assuming both devices are syncing with the same iTunes library).  (And even if they were syncing with separate libraries, you could use Home Sharing to copy the app from one library to the other.)
    Or, am I missunderstanding something?

    iOS 7.1.2, huh? It MAY be having some trouble with the iOS 8.x devices and latest iCloud features. Although it meets the minimum system requirements, it does not meet the recommended ones - System requirements for iCloud - Apple Support
    You should try Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support - this is generally the first step in troubleshooting, all devices - for all time

  • Why can't I upload videos from my iPhone 5 to Facebook (and twitter)?

    I tried both in the Facebook app and also directly from my photos.

    Frustrating yes, I know. I could not upload my first iPhone 4 video (that I transfered to MacBookAir) to FB. FB kept telling me it was not in the correct format & it recommended it be in MP4 and max size is 25MB. The video, I understand, needs to be compressed first so I used "Smart Converter" a free app I found at the App Store (with the most positive ratings) to convert it first, THEN upload it and it was successful. I hope this works for you too.

  • Does iMovie support raw video footage?

    I have a MacBook Pro that is about 3 years old.
    I am trying to upload video footage shot in RAW to iMovie.
    But I keep getting error messages or iMovie just closes.
    I can upload short clips of 10-30 seconds.  But my clips of
    1 -2.5 minutes fail every time.

    'raw' means manufacturer-specific, less processed still-formats.
    best to my knowledge, no such thing for video-codecs.
    so, what do you mean with 'raw'video?

  • HT1296 Upload video from Mac to iPhone

    How do I upload a video I created from my Macbook Air to my iPhone using iCloud?

    Hi. Double check the video in your computer and see to it that it's in MP4 format. You will also need to convert it to video compatible for iphone. There are a lot of 3rd party software for that and normally converting videos to iphone is one of the option.
    You can also try opening the video using iMovie then go to share export and you should see there an option to convert the video for iPhone viewing.

    if you dont have itunes you can use photo sync free app and download the companion for your computer. But ituens is by far the best.
    Plug in the phone, click on your phone in the side bar and then go to the movies tab and sync your movies.

  • When I upload videos from iphone 4 to PC they skip frames. It isn't camera shake or anything like that.  Any solutions?

    when I upload videos from iphone 4 to PC they skip frames. It isn't camera shake or anything like that.  Any solutions?

    Wow that was really quick, thank you so much.  Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it.  I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names.  isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
    So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
    either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

  • I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket.  FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423.  They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook.  Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of so

    I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket.  FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423.  They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook.  Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of something like .mov or mp4.  How can I change the extension after the fact and avoid it in the future?

    You said, "the 4 also has signal and wifi whereas the 5 has only wifi". By "signal", I'm assuing that you mean cellular signal. If so, that means your iPhone 4 is still active on your cellular number and your iPhone 5 is not. Contact your carrier to sort out which phone is active on your account.

  • Upload videos from Iphone to laptop

    I sold my old computer and now I want to upload my videos from the Iphone to the new MacBook . It seems impossible to do this with Itunes . Any suggestions ?

    You are correct, it is impossible to do with iTunes. Moving music and videos is only one directional, from computer to iPhone/iPod, unless the music was purchased from the iTunes store. If the videos were purchased, you can use the Transfer Purchased Items link in the File menu to move the videos. Otherwise, it can't be done with iTunes.
    Sorry.
