i Movie Recovery

jbglapaz · Mar 24, 2022

I made some nice little iMovies a few years ago, posted them on YouTube.

I would like to post these on VIMEO.

I cannot find my movies! They do not seem to come up. However there is stuff in the "libraries."

I tried to move them from YouTube to my Desktop and then to Vimeo but no luck.

Before I delve into my external hard drive with hopes of finding something, I thought it owuld be a good idea to post here.

I see my profile has an older mac. MY OS is Cataline.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

PS. The iMovie Ap is no longer available on Apple TV. Is this related?

If they posted on YouTube they should have no issues posting to VIMEO. You can download your videos from YouTube and then upload them to VIMEO. I would select the highest quality YouTube offers for download.

You say you tried to move your videos from YouTube to your desktop to VIMEO but it didn't work. Just how did you do this?

If you could send me a link to one of your YouTube videos I can take a look.

I downloaded your first video with no issues using the app link below. I picked 720p for the quality and I now have two mp4 files that play on my M1 mac. Just open the YouTube page with your video, copy the link so it is in your clipboard then open the app and click on the paste link green button.
