Apple upgrade has wrecked my ability to load to You Tube.

Post by larryh »

In case some of you who follow my Acousticedison You Tube Videos wondered why so little has gone up the past few days it a madding change by Apple to their Browser. That however isn't what their saying. They blame You Tube for not working with the new upgrade. I blame them both. I was doing just fine and then boom, videos that were taking upwards of two ours HD now have taken entire days. It stops after about every 10 degrees of loading and stalls. So to get to 100% you have to go back in and once again up the file into the upload box and then it once again stops after a bit. That means unless I am here nearly all the time it takes forever to load one 4 or so minute musical selection. Anyone else with an Apple computer and the new Mac OS Sierra noticed this change? I think their may be work arounds though another browser but being totally lost with computers I'am reluctant to add one more thing to the mix. Still I am stuck pretty much now unless someone blinks.

I have uploaded videos to YouTube with no problems whatsoever using the latest Firefox browser running on a Linux computer. It should be easy to install the Firefox browser on your Apple as well. Why don't you try that?

Thanks for the suggestion. I recalled that when I first started to upload videos there was a sometimes problem with it uploading. At that time I did call the help line and they did something to the Preferences to allow it to load without cutting it off. So with my limited knowledge I went in and found those settings and changed anything that called for shutting it down and opening the ones that would allow it to keep uploading. I have the screen saver kind of wavy lines now that come on when the off setting used to shut it down. But at least it loaded without stopping. I will call once again to find someone who can set it for the best way to allow it to load without keeping things on for too long. I just for now am happy it will upload again.

thanks

Larry,

What type of internet service do you have? Hours to upload a video seems antiquated... You aren't using AOL or something, are you?
