Breakfast: pastrami and cheddar on sourdough, cafe du monde coffee and chicory via french press with sucanet and milk. Recharge Spa work: December newsletter, video introduction. Waxed the Pranzo II with all three leaves in place. Lunch and dinner were both Thanksgiving leftovers. After dinner Patrick and I watched some clips on YouTube. Encountered the following error message in iMovie 10 when attempting to upload a movie to YouTube: "Please copy this code, switch to your application and paste it there:" but there is seemingly no place to paste the code. I successfully used the workaround posted at Oct 20, 2015 1:09 AM by crypticbag on Apple Support Communities: "Right click on the profile you want to use (before you get this new window in Safari) and click on 'Open Link'." When using this workaround there is no need to copy and paste a code. The YouTube upload failed with an error of some kind and I didn't feel like troubleshooting it. I exported it at the highest quality which generated a .MOV file but when I tried uploading it to YouTube I realized it was 2 GB which I knew was too large and so I canceled the upload. I then exported it at High (instead of ProRes, whatever that means) and that generated a 290 MB file which uploaded to YouTube successfully. Late meal: chicken and rotelle noodle soup from a can.
