Problem uploading a video on YouTube

There are several situations which may give problems with YouTube and cause a conflict that prevents you from uploading videos, make the transfer too slow, or possibly stops in the middle of uploading the video. There is no single solution because the problem may be the computer, browser, antivirus, etc.. I will then present a few tips to help solve this problem.

YouTube now has a maximum of 15 minutes per video for normal users, who are not YouTube Partners. So if your video is longer than 15 minutes will not be accepted and these solutions will not help you.

Use an old version of the uploader
If the version of your browser is old, may not be compatible with the current video uploader, you should use the old version of YouTube uploader which can be found at page http://www.youtube.com/my_videos_upload?forceui=3.

Conflicts with Anti-virus
Your anti-virus will be creating conflict with the action and stop the upload in the middle. You will have to open the antivirus program you are using and turn it off before starting the upload, at the end of uploading the video you should enable it again.

Conflicts with the Firewall
The firewall that you use may be blocking or stoping the video upload. For this you should disable the firewall before uploading the video. It may be that firewall you have installed or the firewall of the anti-virus.

Browser Cache
