Facebook will only allow you to upload videos in these formats: 3g2, 3gp, 3gpp, asf, avi, dat, divx, dv, f4v, flv,m2ts, m4v, mkv, mod, mov, mp4, mpe, mpeg, mpeg4, mpg, mts, nsv, ogm, ogv, qt, tod, ts, vob, and wmv. You can find the file format by right clicking on the file and choosing “Properties” in Windows or “Get Info” in Mac OS X. You will find the file format listed next to “File Format” in Windows and “Kind” in Mac OS X. Facebook also limits the size and length of the video. You may only upload video which are up to 1gb or 20 minutes, whichever comes first.
You may copy a URL by highlighting it and either right-clicking then choosing “copy” or by pressing CTL+C on your keyboard.
To past the URL, you may either right-click and choose “paste” or press CTL+V on your keyboard.
In Youtube, the button appears as linked text (i. e. “Share”) below the video. In DailyMotion, the button is an overlay on the video which specifically says “Facebook” with the Facebook logo. If you are using a different website, then you may have to look for a variation of the “Share” button.
In Youtube, a drop-down list will appear. Click the blue and white “f,” the Facebook logo. In DailyMotion, simply click the first Facebook logo that is overlaid on the video. Other “Share” features may have you click on other versions of the Facebook logo.
Navigate through Facebook’s options, such as “feeling” or “watching. " You may choose to select one of the options Facebook provides or type your own response. For instance, if you are watching a specific show then type the name and Facebook will most likely list the show, which you would click. If you want to say that you are “watching my family” because you have shared your significant other’s vacation video, however, then you may simply type that text in the box. Since Facebook does not have a preset for “my family,” you will need to scroll to the bottom of the preset options and click on your specific text (in this instance “my family”).
