Uploading to Dropbox

Hello all,

Trying to sort out a video for a school project. The video is 1.38GB long. Should it really take FIVE HOURS to upload on to Dropbox?

Is it my broadband that is screwed or is that really an acceptable time?

That is a huge file for an upload, unless you've got a super-fast connection. Uploads are usually much slower than downloads anyway. Does it show any progress?

A quarter of the way. I have no experience of uploading other than a few photos.

I desperately need to get it up and over to my class teacher to ratify for our Monday assembly.

Stupidly assumed it would be no more than an hour at the very most.

It would be quicker to put it on a memory stick and drive it over!

Just stick it on a USB stick if it's that size. 20 seconds - job done.

Or export the video file to a size that's a lot more manageable - then stick it on Dropbox.
