Video in iMovie theater not uploading to iCloud

i am trying to upload my videos in iMovie theatre so it syncs across my other devices but it keeps stalling when I try to upload to iCloud and it never finishes uploading. My iPad is still on iOS 7 but my iPhone and Mac are on the latest operating System of iOS 8 .0 and Yosemite. Could this be the reason? Any ideas how to fix this?

OK, well that makes things easier because I wasn't sure if there was an issue with iMovie theatre after the iCloud Drive update with devices that won't run it. Since you haven't upgraded to iCloud Drive, I'm sure you shouldn't have an issue uploading from your Mac.
Could you describe exactly what happens, I sometimes see the progress bar complete but not actually disappear, next time I open iMovie the progress bar has disappeared and the movies are available on other devices so obviously they do complete.
The other thing to consider is whether this is project specific. How many projects have you tried and have you tried compiling a real simple and short project to upload for test purposes.
Is your Mac connected to the network with ethernet or wifi.

  • 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!

  • Add existing video to iMovie theater

    Hey Gang
    I have about 250 home videos that I current have access to via Home Sharing to my Apple TV.  I've upgraded to Mavericks and the latest iMovie and I'd love to get all my old videos into iMovie Theater, anyone know of a quick way to do this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Max

    thanks justin ... but i think i haven't explained
    myself correctly ... so here i'll try again:
    i click file then import and a new window apears for
    me to select wich file i want to import then i select
    my video and then open, then instead of importing my
    video an alert message opens and says "couldn't open
    file, skipping it and continuing" and nothing gets
    done i have tryed .mpg .avi .mpeg
    another question what video formats are supported by
    imovie?
    thank you!
    .avi is definitely not supportive toward imovie. .avi has a problem with quicktime for some strange reason, happens alot to me, but you can download ffmpegx that will convert your .avi to supportive quicktime formats. imovie should support .mov and .mpeg, as long as quicktime can read it.

  • I have added photos to My Photo Stream on my PC (Windows 7). They appear in the Uploads folder instead. They do not upload to iCloud. Am I doing something wrong?

    Unfortunately, photo stream on a PC is iffy at best.  Many people have problems getting it to work properly, including myself.  A work around would be to use an app like PhotoSync on your PC, which can send photos wirelessly to the camera roll on any of your iOS devices on the same wifi network.  Once in the camera roll, you iOS device will be added to your photo stream.

    Suddenly i have a problem with connection to iCloud.
    Dokuments created on iMac in Pages or Numbers are not transfered to iCloud. Not uploaded to iCloud. There is a sign  (small shape of iCloud), that they are waiting to be uploaded to iCloud.
    I think the iCloud is OK.
    i can see and manage documents in iCloud. i can create them on iPad and  see them and delete them in iCloud.
    But not on iMac.
    i dont know what has happened and I am not abble to find the solution. It was OK till some days ago….

    I have a similar problem! Everything stopped working after upgrading to Mac OS 10.8.4 through the App Store. Help!

  • Documents are not uploading to iCloud from Pages

    All software is up to date.  On OSX 10.9.1 I am only having this issue on my MBP.  Documents are uploading to iCloud from my phone just fine.  I had edited a document and it continues to just say "Waiting" and doesnt upload any changes.  I also started a new document and saved it but it will not upload to iCloud, so I can not access it on the phone.  I am not sure if this is a glitch from the most current Pages update.  Is anyone else having this issue?  Is there a fix for this issue?

    Unfortunately neither of those options work.  Last thing I did was reinstall Pages and it is exactly the same.  Unfortunately now it will not appear in the Launchpad and I have to keep it in my dock.  Having such a horrible day with this.  I do not understand why Apple charges us so much for their hardware and then forces us to use things like iCloud, because they restrict the full benefits of things like Dropbox or Skydrive, when they cant have it working properly.  I have read other posts on here with similar issues or even worse off.
    I greatly appreciate your help Winston.  I think I will have to contact Apple now, I am just hoping it ends up being a simple fix.

  • HT204150 microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud?  how do I get it to upload?

    My Microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud.. how do I correct this ?

    I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
    The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
    Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
    but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
    IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
    as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
    This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
    it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
    what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
    something is crazy
    but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

  • Event on Mac was not upload to iCloud?

    New event which was created on my Mac was not uploaded to iCloud.
    How can I solve it?
    OS is Lion.

    Open iCloud.com and view the calendar.
    Click on the gear at top right then Refresh calendar.
    Click on the calendar list button to the left of Day at top center. This will display a list of calendars on the left.
    Make sure the same calendar as the event you created on your Mac is ticked.

  • Photos not uploading to iCloud Photo Library from Photos beta

    I have been trying for a couple of weeks now to upload photos from my Mac to the iCloud Photo Library using the new Photos beta. I have about 2,800 photos and the upload process just stalls with about 2,000 photos left to upload.
    I've tried turning the upload on and off and rebuilding the library but nothing works. A couple of times when restarting the upload process I have received this error message:
    Referenced files will not upload to iCloud Photo Library
    Select referenced files in your library and choose “Consolidate” from the File menu to copy the original files into the library.
    So I gather I'm supposed to select a few files and consolidate them, but I have no idea what the "referenced" files are.  Might anyone know?
    thanks!

  • 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 does not sync with iCloud

    I've put iMovie film in Theater and uploaded it to iCloud, but do not find the movie now in the cloud.

    Hello Dieter T,
    This functionality is intended to provide videos in your iMovie Theater to your iMovie Theater on other computers signed into the same iCloud account. Currently there is no way to view these videos from the cloud.
    With iCloud, movies and trailers that you create with iMovie and share to the Theater automatically appear in iMovie Theater on your other devices.

  • IMovie Theater not syncing

    Hi,
    I am having a problem syncing iMovie Theater.  I created three clips in FCPX on my Mac Pro.  I copied the clips into iMovie Theater yesterday afternoon.  After the clips uploaded I could view the clips on my AppleTV.  I noted that I could not view them on my iPad.  My iPad shows an old clip I created in iMovie that I deleted.  So, for some reason my iPad is not syncing.  I checked my iPhone this morning and the clips appear in iMovie Theater on my iPhone.  When I open iMovie Theater on my MBP, the clips have not synced and the old deleted clip appears like it does on my iPad.
    The clips are quite short, less than 3 minutes each and they are under 20MB each.
    To summarize:
    1)  AppleTV and iPhone sync
    2)  MBP and iPad do not sync
    I have turned iMovie on and off in the iCloud drive settings on my MBP and this made no difference.
    Any ideas?

    Hello Phil,  I have a similar situation. Mavericks on my Mac, Apple TV and iPad mini IOS current.  Movies can be viewed on Apple TV Theater app but are not available on my iPad mini.  I DID NOT buy the iMovie app for my iPad as I expect to be able to view(only) a movie as I view Photos on the mini.  The iMovie app for the iPad would provide for movie editing/creation and I don't need or want that capability on my iPad.
    So, I need/would like an icon on my mini (like Photos) that would provide access to the movies that iMovie(Mac) uploaded to iCloud.
    By the way...iMovie is fantastic...creating a movie and viewing it on Apple TV was so easy.  I'm very impressed.
    Any insight on viewing iCloud movies via the iPad...anyone?
    Thank you.

  • 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.

  • Can I import video into iMovie Theater directly?

    In iPhoto I created a Slideshow with Music of an iPhoto Album of pictures and video clips. When exported this creates a   .m4v  file.
    Can I directly get this file into iMovie Theater? Without first going to iMovie, importing the .m4v file and Sharing it to Theater, which creates a .mp4  file
    In other words, can I spare this extra time (and effort for the good iMac; it gets quite hot when rendering)?
    (I do not know the difference between these two file types.)
    Thanks for your advice/pointers/solutions

    You can do this with a free app called MPEG Streamclip and a $20 quicktime component from Apple.
