IPHONE 4 videos

hi everyone

 

i filmed a 17 minute video on my iphone a few days ago, now ive put this on my laptop, but whats the best way/site to use to upload this so a friend of mine can download the video its 1.26gb in size, i spent about 8 hours yesterday uploading it to megaupload on for a message to come up when it was done to say i need to buy a premuim account for this upload to count, any advice would be great

thanks!

Fileserve?

I'd recommend using Dropbox. You can copy the file as you would do to a folder on your PC, only in to the public folder which your mate can then access and grab the file.

brilliant thank you how do i do this? sorry im abit rubbish on the old techno side of things

 

sorry just seen you linked it cheers

No worries. Just click the link in my post above yours and download Dropbox. Once it's installed (doesn't take long), there's a public folder in there which you can save the file in. When you open the public folder, there's a setup document provided as standard which tells you step-by-step how to share the file. It's a doddle, even for those not the best with computers.

 

EDIT: never mind!

ive installed it, added my video to a public folder right clicked and copyed link but the link is saying 404 error, am i doing something wrong?

cheers

It sounds like you've done it correctly. I've just made sure it works and had no problem opening a public link. It might be worth asking your friend to install Dropbox, too, so then you don't need to copy public links but instead can create a shared folder which you can both access and drop files in to without using the link option.
