Sending a Video by Email

08/06/10

Evening All,

Hi i dont know if i have posted my query in the correct box as its my first time. I have a slight problem when sending a video via Email, i have the Sony Xperia X10 and if the video is longer than 30 seconds i get a message on screen saying file to big ?? Is there an app out there which can compress the file or is there anothere way of sending my video clips as i dont always have acccess to my laptop. I need to send videos as its for work purposes but am getting annoyed now with the size i can send. :-(


Plz help

Hmm... good question... I'll ask around for ya, I'm not too sure myself.

What kind of email account are you trying to send it with? Are you using a gmail account to send it? I'm not sure how big of a file gmail will let you send from your phone, but if it's limited maybe you can get another email account that allows bigger attachments. Most isp's give you an email account with your internet service. Setting up the account was not too hard for me on my phone, but not sure what type of email app you have for your phone, so I can't give instructions right now.

This is certainly an issue of your email account. I have asked in the German forum. A guy has tried and could easily send a video of more than 40 seconds.

I have set it up through Yahoo and am at the stage where i dont know what to do ???

Hi there can u advise on what to do , i have my email account set up with Yahoo ,

I would setup a gmail account, from google.com. Then ad the account to your phone. I think if you go to settings - accounts and sync - then ad account you can add your gmail account to your phone. Then when you try to email your video it should ask you which account you'd like to use.

Let us know how it goes Riz Slam.

So you have a GMail account now? Go into GMail, then go to the menu, and hit settings, and your options (including yours should be in there.) Let me know if that doesn't work for you.

Sorry for the long delay but nope it does not work , still cant email a video clip longer than 40 seconds :-(. Another query is there an app for the Xperia X10 which allows u to bluetooth pictures in one go as i had to send 45 images singly to my sisters phone which took forever

Evening folks , after searching high and low for a app which will allow me to send multiple pics with my Xperia X10 by bluetooth i stumbled across this app "eFile" good app but only downfall to this is if my pics have not been renamed they dont show small pic thumbnails so ihave to open the thumbnail first view thew pic then send which is time consuming again :-( , anyone else found another app ??

Android SendIT on the market lets you send video messages of any size or length to any email address. I've been using it for a couple of months and it works good.
