      I have 7 short videos recorded on myHauwei mobile. They are in mp4 format. In total they weigh in at 1gb.

      I have been trying to get them to an iPhone Mobile, they are too big to bluetooth, I converted to AVI (smaller files and they play on my Hauwei. I emailed the AVI, they have been downloaded to the iPhone, but won’t play (AVI)

      Back to MP4 I am uploading them to my One Drive, but I am not sure if the iphone can access one drive to download them.

      I have tried drop box it keeps dropping, what about Amazon drive?

      Question 2

      Once uploaded to One Drive can I delete them from C: One Drive folder.

       

      Cheers

        Apple is picky about both resolution AND frame rate. Both will cause failure. It is also picky about the header. You probably need to look at Handbrake to help you

          John, are they in your Photos app (The Google one) on your phone?

          If they are select the videos (You might have to do them individually), when they are full screen on the phone, bottom left corner you should see an odd looking  symbol . Tap that, select create link, then email the link to the iPhone owner. That’s always worked for me in the past. The same link should work no matter what device it’s accessed on.

          In theory.

                Thanks Ed

                I saw your fist post and tried handbrake, It seemed to convert 0ne file to Apple? I emailed it and said try that.

                Only to find they have all the mp4 via watsap, job done. However I will hold onto Handbrake.

                PM they are infact on my partners mobile, I transferred them to my PC via USB and converted to AVI.

                Google is not on the phone as we never connect to the internet on mobiles.

                She is now flapping as she has watsap and can see everyone in her contacts (who is on watsap), watsap to go.

                The mp4s are now on 4 mobiles, they went to Manchester to Sky Dive but not in the Sky.

                Cheers for the help on this.

                Cheers

                  Flapping over nothing.whats app has just looked at the phone contacts and is informing you which ones are using whats app. Its being helpful.

                  Explain to her what’s happing and she has nothing to flap about.

                      Too big to Bluetooth ? I wonder where the limitation lies.

                      As a test I just Bluetoothed the Disney film Frozen from my Windows 10 PC to my Galaxy S7 as a 1.4G MP4 file.

                      It took 45min but no problem.
