Uploading photos problems.

[martinfuge]

Hi

I just got a Canon 7D, and for some reason none of the photos I took today will upload to Flickr. They all time out. I tried some older photos from my old camera and they work. Is there something I am doing wrong, or need to do with the 7D?

Cheers

It maybe a Flickr issue they have had some this week...I assume the files your trying to upload a standard photo file formats...also what is your file size

Just checked I doubt it will be a file size issue but this for future reference is from Flickr

Are there limits on file sizes or file types for uploads?


With a Flickr account, you can upload photos up to 200MB in size, or videos of up to 1GB for each video. For more on video files and types supported, please visit the Video FAQ

Flickr officially supports JPEGs, non-animated GIFs, and PNGs. You can also upload TIFFs and some other file types, but they will automatically be converted to and stored in JPEG format.

Hi Matthew, these are just normal JPEG files, and under the file sizes. I am starting to wonder if it Flickr as seem to be uploading on my Facebook and other sites. Thanks for the link.

It must be a local issue to Flickr...how do you do your uploads to Flickr...personally I use the Flickr desktop Application called Flickr Uploadr

When I log into Flick I click upload, then click add , and browse for the file I looking to upload. I will give that ago and see if it works.
