None of this worked for me when I tried exporting a heavily edited 40-minute video. I was on the verge of screen capturing the whole video. What did end up working was going into the exporting options and changing the quality from 1080p to 720. It finally exported, and I could care less about the minor downgrade in pixel count as long as I'm able to actually share it. Apple really needs to get moving on a solution to this bug. It's a huge pain-in-the-ass.
The issue with filesize and storage constantly keep creating issues for me when exporting/save to files so that I can upload them. ~my videos happen to be about 3+ hours and after 3 Created in iMovie I run into issues further exporting video. I prefer to keep the size, and potentially increase as well. I hope this explanation is clear enough, And the issues are flat out annoying. The phone quickly becomes filled up and unusable. Even being brand new. But thanks for your question, and I believe you can further help due to similar issue and similar intentions for uploading.
Number 2 (removing sped up portions) worked for me IMMEDIATELY on a 44min video where my phone AND iCloud seemingly had TERABYTES of space! Thanks for this!
Very helpful. Especially the bit about having some patience with iMovie. Closing iMovie and giving it some time to probably do it‘s background stuff also helps.
Something about this whole video made me feel like I'm not alone in the world lol. I have searched for troubleshooting on this or other topics many times and for some reason this video calmed me down like no other haha. I think it's because you said things that I relate to and also they are useful. Sometimes I just need to settle down and remember that apps need time to collect themselves too, just like me! Give it a little time...walk away... I had already done a number of the things you mentioned before I got to your video but the thing that worked was walking away and letting my phone cool down from my mad rush! Thank you for being real. You did more than troubleshoot a problem, I don't feel like an imbecile and for that I thank you :)
Thanks, great video. Imovie used 50gb of storage before seeing this video. And after making a few edits it brought it back to 1gb. Now it finally lets me export it.
3 years later and these problems do still exist, I do wonder now if my recently deleted on iPad causes my issues. I really do like the functionality for split screen videos compared to others I have tried so hoping this list will help down the road!
Hey everyone, i have had the same issue, i purchased as much space on my phone as I could and still got the same issue. Then i figured it out (twice) if your iphone has a pending update (check in settings) then this will be the issue. Download the update and you will then be able to export movie providing you do actually have the right amount of free space. Has worked for me both times now exporting 30 min videos
IK THIS IS AN OLDER VIDEO BUT THANK YOU OMG just adding a small edit literally fixed the entire problem and it was exported in less than ten minutes. I use a different app than imovie but it still worked so THANK YOU 😭😭
Great info but none of the steps worked for me and idk if there’s something im doing wrong... i have a 30 mins video ive been trying to export for the past 2 hours.... and i tried air dropping it to my mac and it didnt work... I deleted all of my recently deleted... ive given it time to back up It didnt work for me is there really anything else that i can do
Hmm usually when the videos get that big you usually need a ton of storage space. The solutions I’ve seen are cutting the video, splitting it into multiple videos, or editing it on a computer instead of the phone. I’m sorry this wasn’t more of a help 😔
If your looking in the comments to see if this video is worth looking at just watch the damn thing cause it’s definitely worth it and yea will save you from raging 🤣🤣 thanks for the help my Boy 🙏🏾
You are an absolute lifesaver thank you so much. Tbh I didn’t even realise you could delete items from recently deleted folder! This did the trick for me. Thanks again ❤
My iMovie is like an hour and a half long. Just pictures and some videos. I am new to iPhone and am confused as to what the difference it makes as to iPhone storage and iCloud storage. Listening to your first point I definitely do not have space on my iPhone storage but have plenty of space on my iCloud. How do I approach this?
Has everything in your camera roll been backed up already? You can check this if you look at the very bottom of your camera roll stating if anything has been uploaded. The biggest video I did was 40 min and I think I needed about 10 gigs for that to upload but it didn’t take that much space. So a movie that long might take double. What is the memory size on your phone? And is it possible to break the video up in smaller sections?
Wtf, man. My phone is 512GB and it shows I’ve used less than 200GB. That’s over 300GB of free space and I can’t save a 45 minute video???? I’m trying to save it as 4K/60fps. It FINALLY worked when changing it to 720p/60fps but I don’t f’n what that!!! This is beyond ANNOYING af!
Thank you very much! Number 4 did the trick for me - that was new! :) I get this all the time for my movies (from 15-60 minutes long) even if I have >60GB free storage. Read more below for a tip number 6... I have one step more that I've tried before that worked that time and that is to remove the space that iCloud Drive is taking up on my iPhone. This is another dumb thing with iPhone.. I back up my movies on iCloud and somehow the recent files takes up a huge space on the local storage. I don't remember the steps exactly but you get a scary notice when you are disabling the iCloud synchronization (temporary), after one have done it the local storage will be free so you can export your movie from iMovie and you can later turn on the iCloud again (without any loss of data - which the scary notice intend that you might do...). Hope you understand what I mean. :)
I’ve been trying to export three long videos (40-60 minutes each) and it’s been an absolute nightmare. I was starting to run low on storage so I decided to export them in order to free up a lot of space. I tried everything and nothing works. I can’t put it on RUclips because it says the video is “too long”. Anytime I try exporting it to another app it says “you need to free ___ of space to export”. I even tried using other options like downloading it to my files but the video doesn’t even show up. It’s starting to boil down to just deleting the movies all together because there’s absolutely nothing I can do about it at this point. Your video is helpful, but none of it worked for me unfortunately.
@@MisterStubstep it’s been an infuriating process (still trying at the moment), I’ve decided to just remake the movies on another software and hope it’ll let me free some space by storing the clips on the app itself and allowing me to delete the videos from my device. Although I’m pretty sure it’s not gonna make a difference but what other options do I have at this point?
@@realitycanoftenbedisappoin1437 for my really long videos I just jumped to a laptop/computer to do the edits because my phone’s space just couldn’t take it and I hated having to delete bits that I wanted to keep in the videos just for saving space
@@MisterStubstep 5 hours later and I’m still in the process of making space, and I’ve only gotten about 10 gigabytes free which is absolutely not what I was hoping for, considering the amount of material I’ve deleted and moved, it seems like it’s a waste of time for the amount of work I’m putting in
Thanks! I literally deleted everything off my old phone and only use it to edit and unload 1 video at a time. I have a 256 GB iPhone XS and the other storage data is 80GB with no apps and my photos being under 6! I have been trying to export iMovie for 2 days. I just deleted intro and added it back and it exported with no issues 🤯
Strange, clearing my deleted photos changed the error from saying I only had 1 GB available out of 10 GB Necessary to saying I only had 5 GB available, so it was helpful in a way... but still not enough... now I'm trying to find out if there are other apps that I could maybe empty the trash on... thanks for the idea though!
Shoot. I just spent a week making my first video, and it’s 90 minutes, so I’m probably not going to be able to export it... I managed to free up about 20 gigs, and if I upgrade my iCloud so I can get all my photos off of my drive here, it probably still won’t be enough space even with 40 gigs. What an unnecessary hassle. Come on, Apple! They should really have some kind of warning before letting me waste 12 hours a day for a week on this.
I agree! You would need a phone with a ton of memory. I’m surprised it doesn’t prompt you when making the video that there’s a limit to avoid time wasted
@@MisterStubstep Yeeeep. I guess I’ll have to just do a screen recording and suffer the decreased quality... I’ll be sure to credit the iMovie app for that 😅
I am beyond frustrated with trying to save iMovie projects so that I can then upload to RUclips! AHHHHHHHHH If you make a phone that records 4K 60 FPS, then you need to make sure there are no issues exporting. I have 72 GB available on my phone, and this is after literally crying and then factory resetting my iPhone 13 pro because of “OTHER” in storage. I thought I was clear, but today I tried to save a 4.4 GB iMovie so that I could upload to RUclips and it says I only have 1.2 GB available. This is a wonderful list but I think it’s an Apple issue
If you have an iPhone go on your photo app and click the album tab at the bottom then scroll all the way to the bottom and you should see it labeled “recently deleted”
Thank you very much! But idk if you will be interested in the rest of my content haha. I’m just glad I could help because this gave me so much frustration
Currently have a 45 min video stuck. I’m deleting everything possible and nothing is working. Right now I’m backing up on my desk top and I movie has synced the clips I used but not the projects 😭
Yeah there's no way that I know that can sync the projects from within your phone on the app unless you export the projects and back those clips up... :(
@@MisterStubstep I have no idea what I’m even doing. I’m just crossing my fingers and saying prayers….with a whole lotta swear words in between. 🤣 I had to down load two files to do this project and I knew it would do this when i was done editing. I’m gonna cry myself to sleep and call the Apple store tomorrow because I can’t delete anymore from my phone at this point. I find besides this current problem I’m always running into issues with this app. I love how easy it is. But there are a lot of issues. I know it’s probably the device. Wish me luck please. It’s a project for my son’s channel and it was big for him. Your video was very helpful though. I know it would work if the project wasn’t 45 minutes!
The issue with what’s going on for me is that it exports but a good 10 mins into the video the audio is out of synch. It’s a 30 minute video with voice overs and music and video game clip. Any idea ?
@@MisterStubstep the screen recorder worked fine, everything plays insync but when I export it the audio cuts out 10 or so minutes into it. I did use the voice recorder to record my voice as well over some clips so I’m not sure what to do :(
@@Monstermania101 so if everything is good within the project, you might be able to screen record the project to skip the exporting step altogether. Also after doing some reading there may be a limit to the amount of audio tracks you can have in a particular project. It might also be worth while to split the audio in certain sections to readjust it to sync up again.
it said it failed to export the project due to space or something but then the project gladly takes my space anyways (which was enough space to begin with, and I still have don’t access to it) please help
How can i see how many GB my video is taking up? My phone is 128GB and i have 69 free GB of space so I’m confused as to why my 30 minute video won’t export :-( … I’m thinking point #3 and #4 just give it some time like 24 hours or so to back up… so odd…
Yeah I’ve given it some time to back up in the past and it worked. Also if you have videos in your recently deleted folder it won’t reflect on the total remaining but they will still take up space. That’s why #5 was such a facepalm moment for me
@@hunkyhomemaker9448 If you have an iPhone i can speak on that but if not I am not sure and would probably just google it. For iPhone, if you don't have it set up in your control center already, you can go to >settings and then down to >Control center and then you go down to add >screen recording. Once that is included you should be able to go to your control center from the home screen by swiping down from the top right and pressing the screen record button that you saw in settings. Once it lights up it is recording and if you want to record voice as well hold it down to include external audio or else it will only record sounds internal to the phone

The issue with what’s going on for me is that it exports but a good 10 mins into the video the audio is out of synch. It’s a 30 minute video with voice overs and music and video game clip. Any idea ?
Hmm how did you capture the video? Because you should be able to move voiceovers around if need be and the raw video should never change
@@MisterStubstep I used the screen capture app on my phone
@@Monstermania101 and then you added everything afterwards on iMovie? Or is the screen recorded video out of sync?
@@MisterStubstep the screen recorder worked fine, everything plays insync but when I export it the audio cuts out 10 or so minutes into it. I did use the voice recorder to record my voice as well over some clips so I’m not sure what to do :(
@@Monstermania101 so if everything is good within the project, you might be able to screen record the project to skip the exporting step altogether. Also after doing some reading there may be a limit to the amount of audio tracks you can have in a particular project. It might also be worth while to split the audio in certain sections to readjust it to sync up again.

it said it failed to export the project due to space or something but then the project gladly takes my space anyways (which was enough space to begin with, and I still have don’t access to it) please help
Hmm that’s tough… you deleted all your excess stuff and deleted your recently deleted?
somehow it fixed itself after some time, weird. I genuinely panicked at the beginning. Thanks tho.
@@FrankCapybara glad it worked out
How can i see how many GB my video is taking up? My phone is 128GB and i have 69 free GB of space so I’m confused as to why my 30 minute video won’t export :-( … I’m thinking point #3 and #4 just give it some time like 24 hours or so to back up… so odd…
Yeah I’ve given it some time to back up in the past and it worked. Also if you have videos in your recently deleted folder it won’t reflect on the total remaining but they will still take up space. That’s why #5 was such a facepalm moment for me
Yup my 22 min video won’t export from iMovie
Did any of the steps work for you?
@@MisterStubstep I had to cut it down from 22 mins to 17 thanks
@@CooknVibewithannmarielove best to you
So I put my sped up clips to normal speed and it worked .. thanks because I was getting annoyed😂😂
Yeah idk why it works but it does! Glad you figured something out
I literally only had a 20 min vid tht was sped up and maybe like one clip and it still won’t export
Is the whole thing sped up?
This didn't work for me. My solution, screen record your movie on the iPhone and it'll automatically save to camera roll and then export via air drop
That’s another great solution! That’s actually how I filmed this video haha. I did not use air drop though. That’s cool!
I like this suggestion too ,,,, but how would I screen record? I have not tried that before.
@@hunkyhomemaker9448 If you have an iPhone i can speak on that but if not I am not sure and would probably just google it. For iPhone, if you don't have it set up in your control center already, you can go to >settings and then down to >Control center and then you go down to add >screen recording. Once that is included you should be able to go to your control center from the home screen by swiping down from the top right and pressing the screen record button that you saw in settings. Once it lights up it is recording and if you want to record voice as well hold it down to include external audio or else it will only record sounds internal to the phone
It didn’t work for me. Give me error 1835 message!😤
I turned it on and off and then it worked. After raging for 30 minutes.
😅 glad something worked for you!
This didnt work for me any of the five tips didnt work for me.
Did you try the airdrop method? Someone mentioned below that none of these worked but they airdropped to export and it worked
Airdrop what? The video is not being generated. The only hack is to play it in full screen and do a screen recording but that is not a solution.
@@normanalexanderstudios1478 what do you mean it’s not being generated? It’s a file in iMovie no? And how long is your video?
Didnt help
Did you try the air drip method? Someone below didn’t find any success but they were able to export by air drop
HI thank you so much, I deleted all the sped up parts (I had a lot lol) and it worked!!!
Glad something helped!
