I recorded a video for my YouTube channel. After editing it, I try to crop out any unwanted borders. When I finish cropping out the borders, I wait for “preparing video”, but it’s stuck at about 25%, and doesn’t load anymore. Can someone help?
iPhone XR, iOS 14
I was able to fix this issue by double tapping the video when it was stuck. The progress would go back to 0 and slowly make its way to 100%. I was able to do this twice.
seems the issue happens if you lock or move away from the photo app while it’s preparing.
Hello,
I’m hitting the same issue described, preparing video stuck at 25%. I’ve tried double tap, hard reset and reboot, but I can’t solve it.
Any other tips or any information about this bug?
I’m trying to edit a 35 minutes 4K 60fps video on IPhone 12 Pro Max 512GB. I have also the last iOS installed.
Thank you!
I am having the same issue right now and it is for a very VERY important thing. I cant believe apple says they have such good phones and will never have an issue and yet this is happening... I tried restarting my phone closing out of the video opening back up and even waiting 20 Minutes!! Im sitting her panicking on this stuff, because I assumed apple would not have these issues.
This is still happening to me too! I have a business and record my videos with my iphone 11. Sometimes it goes fine and transfer right over- other times it is stuck on processing and I cannot do anything with it! This is not only annoying but, it's affecting the production of my business.
APPLE GET ON FIXING THIS I KNOW YOU HAVE ENOUGH DEVELOPERS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE!
This is certainly NOT resolved. OMG I'm ready to trash can Apple over this, my Mac being ruthlessly hacked and out of my control not to mention that if I spend my days read "Learn more" bs I'd have zero time to live.
Sorry bout that👆🏽
but thanks for listening...😄
I screen recorded a 1 minute video, cut it down to 30 secs. This is a video from 1990 and as I spent time looking for a solution to this problem my iPhone 11 max pro is still trying to save or preparing video, for over 4 minutes to cut a video in half?
I think I finally figured out how to solve this on-going problem, in three easy steps:
Step 1: Determine your location relative to Silicon Valley, then turn and face it.
Step 2: Turn the phone onto the horizontal position and then hold down ALL side buttons simultaneously. NOTE: THEY MUST BE HELD DOWN EXACTLY AT THE SAME MOMENT!
Step 2: Say "Steve Jobs would be ******!" three times in the loudest voice possible.
ALTERNATE FIX APPROACH:
Hope that Apple will put resources to fix this glaring problem. The iPhone's best feature is its camera. How this is allowed to continue to happen is really disheartening. FIX IT APPLE!!!!!!!!!!
If Apple doesn't fix this, the only option left is to buy a Samsung product.
The iPhone DOES NOT have a “new Trojan virus.” Exactly where did you get this outright lie? If for some reason you need any kind of proof of this just use a little bit of common sense: RESTARTING A DEVICE DOES NOT WIPE OUT A VIRUS!
No need to be so sarcastic. And the problem was already solved. Maybe if you had read through the others, I already solved it.
Same I try to crop a video and I’m stuck on it!
THIS!!! This fixed the issue for me. Very easy. But apple still does need to fix the issue so we don’t have to double tap it every single time.
Resets don’t even help me anymore. Its still stuck on “preparing” even after I do the zoom in trick.
Yep this worked. But it certainly took me more than a few attempts.
im going through the same issue. Every since I updated my phone I have been having issues smh. They just want us to buy the IPhone 12 with all that 5G crap.
Someone please help I have the same problem
