How to Upload YouTube Shorts from PC or MAC

You can upload YouTube shorts from Windows PC or Mac using any browser.

You just need to make sure you have two things set up correctly. You have to make sure the video is in vertical format, 1080x1920 pixels. Regular horizontal videos won’t be considered shorts.

You also have to make sure the video is less than 60 seconds.

You can use a platform like Canva to make sure you are using the correct size video.

Great tutorial! I just uploaded my very FIRST short. Your video was straight to the point with a little bit of extra details that didn't linger too long from the point.

I have to tell you that I have watched every video on this topic and couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. I had all but given up when I decided to watch this video because I use canva all the time and was curious. Finally, advice that worked!! I can't thank you enough for the help. Thanks also to canva!

A debt of gratitude to you and this channel. I did not know about the one minute limit on Youtube shorts.

Thank you for the great explanation on how to upload a short. I didn't realize that it had to be less than 60 seconds to be considered a short. Very helpful thanks for sharing your video with us who are not always in the know.

Is it possible to create a Thumbnail for your Shorts using the PC? I know it is easy with your phone, but what about the PC version of this?
