    Most likely the file is too large or in the wrong format. In order to upload it to youtube, open windows movie maker and open your video you made. Go to file and be sure to choose the "publish video" option as opposed to the "save video" option. Then select "publish for playback on this computer", which should bring up a few options. Select the "compress to" option and maybe make the number a little larger or smaller. Larger if you want better quality, smaller if you want it to upload to youtube faster. After you publish the video, you should be able to upload, but it will take a while.

    Chances are you saved it in the wrong format.

    Do NOT just do file save or file save as and then go and try and upload it - that will not work.

    You need to file PUBLISH the movie, wait for it to publish (takes several minutes + ) and then it will be in .wmv format and youtube will take it.
