IPAD to Youtube trouble?

Post by Jason King »

I have several videos on my IPAD that are 5-10min long. I tried to upload one to youtube tonight and it seems to go ok but nothing shows up? It will say preparing video and a blue bar moves across the bottom over a few minutes time and then it goes back to my video but not in youtube.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

As John said, sometimes a longer video (> 5 minutes) takes a while to process. Be patient and you should see your video eventually.

Since you are creating the video using Apple software, and since Apple does not support Adobe Flash at all, you need to find an option to upload it in HTML 5 codec format. You may have to make changes to the video, or not. I am not sure. All I do know is that your i devices don't support Flash (.flv) video.
