When uploading to You Tube via iMovie settings and lost/blank?

Hi,
When uploading a video via the iMovie app to You Tube it appears that the settings (e.g. title, description, public/private etc... ) are not being transferred to You Tube when the video is uploaded.
e.g. I attempt to export a video to You Tube via the iMovie app, I type in a title, description and select Public to share the video, but when it has completed uploading at You Tube then the title and description fields are blank and it has defaulted to Private.
I am using an iPod Touch 4th gen, iOS 5.0.1 with the very latest iMovie app.
Any help very much appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Nick

well... for anyone else experiencing something similar, here's how I worked around it :
1. Once I have edited my video in the iMovie app and I want to publish it, I then select the publish option, and then choose YouTube as the place I'd like to publish it.
2. I then fill out all the fields in the 'Publish to YouTube' form, as if I was about to publish it.
3. I then select CANCEL, to cancel out of the 'Publish to YouTube' form.
4. I then exit the iMovie app, and force it to close by going into the app dock and forcing it to close there.
5. I then re-open the iMovie app, and choose the video I want to publish, select the publish option, choose YouTube as the place I'd like to publish it.
6. The fields are now already populated with the information I had entered previously, although I still need to select the video quality and also whether it should be public or private.
7. I now click "publish" and it publishes correctly, with all the correct meta-data / title / description etc. attached.
This has worked for me consistently over the past couple months now,
Hope this helps anyone with a similar issue.
Cheers,
Nick

  • Trouble "exporting movie" from iMovie when uploading to You Tube....

    Hi, I have never had a problem with uploading my projects from iMovie to You Tube off my iPad. I have about 32GB's available on my iPad 3. I only have about 5 projects and never had any hassle going thru the upload process? Now, with my latest project complete (only about 4.5min) I click on upload to You Tube, it then says "exporting movie" as it normally says, but doesn't go any further - just hangs there?
    Any help appreciated!

  • HT4997 why imovie doesnt have a format which is compatible with you tube when there is an option to ''upload to you tube"' After upload you tube pops a message that format is not compatible

    1) The people responding in this forum are just other Apple product users like you, not Apple itself.  Apple Support Communities is primarily an end-user to end-user (i.e., users like you helping other users) technical issue support feature. Feedback will truly get more attention if you send it using:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    2)  At some stage developers decide it isn't worth the expense of supporting older technology. If I had my way you could still connect iOS7 to OS9, but Apple has decided to make the limit OS 10.6.8  Nor do I like that I can't get spare parts for my 33 year old car...
    Suggestions...
    If you are not going to always be running the newest technology always read software requirements before doing any upgrades.  I run a 12 year old computer and yes, I see there are things I can't run (many), but I also then avoid buying any incompatible new technology.  The system requirements are printed on the side of the box (albeit in 9 point medium gray font on light gray box   )  Do not expect the Apple Store people to check with you about your computer first.  I bet half of them were still in grade school when my computer was produced and none of them could possibly imagine anybody would run anything older than 6 years (probably not even that, more like 4).
    Why not buy Snow Leopard?  Of course you do not say what model computer you are using, but if you can run Snow Leopard on your computer there's no advantage to staying with Leopard.  Snow Leopard costs $20 which is minimal compared to you now no longer being able to sync your phone.
    Snow Leopard disc source - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    I'd swear I posted almost this identical post two hours ago...
    If you can't/don't want to upgrade your computer, you have 30 days to return the phone I believe.

  • IMovie continually crashes when trying to upload to You Tube

    I cannot get iMovie to upload to You tube.  It keep crashing. 

    I find going to YouTube then uploading works better than the other way round. 

  • Just bought a new Canon Vixia HF R300.  It looks like I have basically two recording modes--either AVCHD or MP4.  I have a year old Mac Mini on Lion with increased ram.  I edit on iMovie and upload to You Tube.  Which recording mode would be best?

    Hi...
    I just bought a Canon Vixia HF R300 camcorder.  It looks like it gives me a choice of two recording modes AVCHD or MP4.  I will be uploading onto a year old Mac Mini with the Lion Operating system and increased ram.   I will be editing in iMovie '11 then uploading to You Tube.  Which recording mode should I use?  Obviously I'd like to get the best quality but I also want it to show well on You Tube.   What do you think?  Thanks for the help.  Bill

    Hi
    What program can you use to convert AVCHD to a DVD format?
    Share to File (in iMovie) - AND AS 480p - NOT Higher as DownScaling will be done badly.
    Use this file in iDVD or Roxio Toast™ or what DVD Authoring program You've got.
    To make a VIDEO-DVD You must use a DVD Authoring program - to get the right compression format AND Structure - It is a MUST.
    There are free alternatives - but resulting DVD hasve been far from what quality iDVD (and Toast™) will deliver.
    To get best possibly DVD - also this counts.
    - DVD brand used - I only Verbatim
    - DVD type used - I only DVD-R Single layer (4.7Gb)
    (DVD+R works for many and DVD-R/W usually don't work OK and Double Layer also are a problem to it self)
    - BURN SPEED - I set this as low possibly (usually x2)
    - Free Space on Start-Up Hard Disk - MATTERS - I never go less than 25Gb
    Good Luck
    Yours Bengt W

  • Since the upgrade of the ios 6.0 you tube does not work and when doing a search of apps after 24 views the ipod logs off can i downgrade to my old software

    Since the upgrade of the ios 6.0 software you tube will not work and when searching for an app the ipod touch shuts down after viewing 24 items

    What iPhone do you have? You can check in settings>>general>> about.
    If you have a 3G you cannot update beyond iOS 4.2.1. The 3G is over 4 years old an was discontinued over 2 1/2 years ago. You need the latest ios to run the latest versions of some apps. If you have a 3GS you can update.
    If your phone is not responding, reset it by pressing and holding down both the home button ad lock/ sleep button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.

    I have accidentally retored my phone back to factory settings and lost my contact list, photos and all.  I have retrieved my apps via itunes but is there any way to reverse this so I can get my photos and contact list back?

    Some accident with all the steps and warning messages provided.
    All contacts on your iPhone should be available on your computer. Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    Contacts and photos/videos in the Camera Roll should be included with your iPhone's backup which should have been created or updated by iTunes as the first step during the restore process - unless you declined the option.
    If you declined the option, the data is gone. If not, restore your iPhone again from the backup that was created or updated before the previous restore.

  • Disputing a claim with you tube via using imovie jingle

    Hello,
    Just got a message again from you tube re a jingle from imovie. The email came from noreply so went onto the copyright part of their site and you have options to dispute the claim. I chose the I have permission to use the content etc. I also included the section 2C with the pdf link. Was that the right option?

    It might take a couple of weeks, but in the meantime, your video is still posted.
    Here is a great article on the situation. It turns out this problem impacts pros who use Final Cut Pro as well.

  • No audio when uploading a screen recording via quicktime on mac to youtube.

    I've used screen recorder via quicktime for upload to youtube it has both visual and audio when I've viewed it but after uploading to youtube the audio is missing. I'm new to mac so a complete novice. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi
    This is a bit unclear to me.
    No audio when recording
    No Video-editing program I know off play any feedback (at standard settings) while recording. FinalCut is even worse that it doesn't play the sound while importing from Camera either (one need to connect speakers to the Camera-audio-out to get this)
    So first - I'm not sure if You can get audio out while recording in iMovie at all.
    BUT
    If there is no sound - When Your captured video is played back - then the problem is more severe and I would start with.
    • Trashing iMovie pref and cache files
    and see if that helps.
    Please - be more descriptive - so that one can do the same actions to see if Your problem is Yours only or if it is the same on more Macs.
    Yours Bengt W
