[RESOLVED] Can't upload music to Skydrive

[garybeafl]

I have been messing around with Skydrive for about an hour. Somehow I was able to upload about 12 kiddy tunes for my grandkids but I have about 4G of music that I want to put on Skydrive and I can't figure out how to do it. I went to Google and read the "how to" from Microsoft but when I did that nothing happened. I have Silverlight installed. Can anyone help?

I've never done skydrive.... But I'd guess that there is a limit as to how much you can upload... What are their limits and how large are the files you've already uploaded?

Skydrive has a 2GB file size limit. If you are uploading the 4G as one big chunk, that could be the problem.

On the screen it said I had a 7G limit. If the file was too large it would be nice if they would have a message to say that is the case.

7G is the total storage of the SkyDrive. The file upload size limit is 2GB.

If you use Internet Explorer 10 or a recent version of other popular web browsers, you can upload files on SkyDrive.com that are up to 2 GB in size. If you use an older web browser, you can't upload files larger than 300 MB on SkyDrive.com.

With the SkyDrive desktop app, you can add files up to 2 GB in size to your SkyDrive folder, which gets automatically uploaded to SkyDrive.

Well, Thank you so much for that information. I never knew that and I will bet a lot of other people did not know that. Thank you Midknyte.
