I've tried sending it to my MacBook Pro and emailing it from there with the title and "MOV" as format, but still disappoint family and friends who can't open it. Is it a formatting problem? What should I be doing that I'm not? Thanks to whomever is able to help me with this. It's a longtime problem I'm just becoming really tired of trying to "fix". Steph :>) |

The problem is LIKELY to be that the rest of the people you're sending to are hobbled with Windows PCs and haven't bothered to (or can't figure out how to) install QuickTime, so they can't see anything that's not in Windows Media Player format or something similar. You can try converting it if you want but really the solution I've posted is the right way to go. |

Yes, I feel the same about my friends who still insist on hobbling themselves with PCs. I've converted many, but not all. :>) How do I set up a YouTube private channel? I've posted there some years ago, but no clue how I did it. Anyway, you're a kind soul and I'm very grateful for your suggestion, even tho' I expect all my Mac equipment to work miracles for me.
