Okay, I'm really really hoping someone could help me cause I'm sick to death of this. I haven't been able to use my netbook in awhile and my other computers aren't ready so I'm stuck using the Mac for most things and going upstairs to the Windows machine for the rest. One of the things that the Mac can do that Windows can't is allow me to upload videos. But every time I make one with Photobooth on the Mac, there's a 95% chance that youtube will cut it off. The length and size of the videos are fine, so I don't know why it keeps doing this. But even when I delete a video and then reupload it, the same thing happens and it stops at the same spot where it originally did on that particular video. Each time is different. Sometimes, it stops at 10 seconds, sometimes 21, sometimes 38 etc. The rest of the time, it uploads them correctly. I never have this problem with the videos that I make on the Windows machine which I then have to port onto the Mac to upload. So how can I get it to stop doing that? Do I need to convert them from mov to
something else? If so, how do I do that or what program (that's easy to use) can make videos in a more compatible format like mp4 or something so that I don't have to deal with this? I think Switch can convert these formats but am not sure and would rather use a Mac program so that I don't have to keep moving the file from machine to machine. I tried e-mailing my video from the Mac using the mobile option but it took forever to upload, and when it finally did, it did the same thing as always. While I'm at it, has anyone else noticed that it's completely impossible to edit your profile now? I had to get sighted assistance to do it. Also, does anyone know how I can change the address used on there from my old gmail one to my new gmail one? It sens me to some kind of Google page but Safari can't read or do anything with it. I'll try it on the XP machine and see what happens. Maybe, I should just look for a more accessible video site, but it would be a real shame to have to lose my youtube subscribers.
