    My file has finished uploading but stuck on 99% 00:00:00 Remark by file name is "Finishing". Been this way for an hour now. When I go to log off or restart the uplaoder, I get warned that I will lose the file. This has happened more than once and I've lost hours of time and the video never saved to my Vimeo account.

    Any ideas??

    I'm having a lot of problems. The desktop uploader is not very stable, why would they release it like this?

    Video uploading is obviously broken on Vimeo. Lots of complaints lately. Many from paying customers. Checl the forum posts. (Except Vimeos deletes some it appears). Word is spreading across the Internet fast as usual. Sorry for telling the truth.

    Yup we had issues but we're goo d now, it's not a secret, sometimes websites run by humans have problems, we had problems.

    I am in the same boat! Spent half the day yesterday trying to post smaller sized video. I am a paying customer to Vimeo because I use this as a professional site for clients and potential clients. I desperately needed to post stuff last night for a gig and couldn't get the thing uploaded...Any more luck today?

    Hi Jessica,

    Sorry about all the frustration, it is very annoying. Please see our uploading tips listed here- vimeo.com/forums/topic:16738
