You need to transfer them over Wifi.

Hey sorry, just got onto the forums today.  Yes, you have to turn on your wifi and connect to either your wireless router or a wifi-hotspot.  After you connect try to upload again and it should go through.  You will see the upload status in your home screen status bar.

The reason you have to transfer them over wifi is that these clips are very large when recorded in HD.  You have to figure they are almost twice the resolution as standard TV even, and in most cases you're looking at 4-5x the resolution as your typical youtube video.  Higher resolution = much bigger file.

If you don't have access to wifi, you can load the files onto your computer then upload them from there.  You will find the files on your SD card either in pictures or video folder depending on the file type you're looking for.
