Need help with transfer of files
« on: 21 Oct 2011, 05:30 am »
Sorry to bother you guys with a non music question, but this newbie needs some help.  I'm taking a science class to learn new methods to teach my elementary class.  This is an on line class from the local college.  I have been taking short video with my Creative Vado vidcam, and want to post some of what I am employing in my classroom.  But I am having a heck of a time with the size limitations.  I understand that video takes up a lot more space, but I am super limited by Google mail and Yahoo saying that your file has exceeded the 25mb limit.  Good grief, that is nothing for even a short vid file.  So I bought 20 gigs of cloud space from Google docs, and I figured I could upload my shortened vid clips to this and then load that onto my weekly reports.
But there goes the 25 mb limit factor at me again.  How does one get that material to their 'dropbox' or anything else for that matter so my other colleagues can see my clips?
Sorry for the long question, but I am frustrated. :cry:

P.S. This is all PC, not Apple gear.  Though the Creative puts the vids in a mp4 codec.

Alright, I was able to upload a short file to my Google Docs storage space.  Now I will just have to play with the on line system of this class, to see if it will play nice with the Google docs link.  That may be the limiter.  Can't do that until Saturday.  It has locked me out for now.

Thanks, JEaton
That was my first thought.  Not allowed to put public school children on it in my school district, even though I have a permission slip from the parents for other sites.
