iphone4 to ipad2 pic and small movie transfer works. larger movie file created with iMovie does not work.

Transfer of a picture and a small video clip works fine from iphone 4 to ipad 2 using the Photo Transfer App. When I try to transfer a movie created on my iphone 4 using iMovie, I get the following error. "The sender device responded but does not have pictures to share. Please select some photos on the sender device and try again." What is strange is I did select the movie file i created on the iphone 4. On the ipad 2, I selected Receive, the iphone 4, and "Get Videos" button on the app and I still get this error message.
Can anyone tell me what might be wrong?
Hello Bill,

I apologies for the delay in response, I will be happy to help you. Make sure you keep the app running when you attempt to transfer the video(s). What is the length/size of the video? Also make sure that you are connected to the same wifi network.

In order for it to transfer it needs to be in a .MOV format. Do you know what the format of the video is? It could be that the format changed after you created it with iMovie.

Note:If it is longer than 5 minutes you may need to make a change on the settings to allow the transfer. Here is what you need to do if the video is longer than 5 minutes: Open the 'Settings' app on your iPhone and go to the settings for our app 'Transfer'). Then change the limit for the setting 'Max video duration' to 600 seconds (10 mins) or whatever you need. Please note that it may take a while to transfer if the video is very long.

Please let me know if this helps!

Kind Regards,

Thanks for your reply.

It seems I did not have enough room on my iPad to transfer the video. Once I made space on the iPad, the transfer worked fine.

Great app!

Thanks for the help.
