Include some more info to help them debug.

What are the file specs? e.g. file size, codec, frame rate, resolution.
What version of Safari are you using? Go to the Safari menu->About Safari. Make sure to give the entire version string (e.g. Version 4.0 (5530.17)
Did it fail during the upload or did the upload complete and Safari didn't advance on to the next page?
Did you try any other browsers?

Holy crap its 2.16 GB! Im not sure how to shrink it though. Im using the latest safari. What happened is the first time I pressed upload and safari "closed unexpectantly" then from then on it just did that little spinny loading thing. No i dont have any other browsers.

Thanks though, I can always count on NS +k

I don't use iMovie, but I highly recommend FilmRedux to compress your file. It's the open source version of VisualHub, an amazing app that was the standard for video conversion.

Download it here. http://www.transcoder-redux.com/transcoder-redux.dmg.zip

Safari crashed because it was trying to put a lock on and move a 2 gig file. Sometimes Safari will beach ball for so long that it thinks it has crashed and the OS kills the app.
