If you have a really large project, the compressing might not have made the file small enough. If you think this could be the problem and you have Windows XP, you can check the file size (projects can't be over 10mb). Do this by going to "my documents" on the "start" menu, and selecting the folder that your project is located in. Then, click on the "view" menu and select "tiles". The size of your project should be listed under one of the icons. I hope I could help!

I am having a similar problem. All upload attempts fail for "unknown reasons".
I have confirmed this by trying to upload the default project. I have named it "silly.sb" and it is only 48K in size, so the file is not too big.
My internet connection is broadband in Vienna, Austria. It has no problems with the Scratch web site or with high bandwidth activity like buying video and music from the Apple iTunes store. I don't think the connection is timing out.
There is no proxy server between me and MIT.
I have confirmed my username/password by logging into this Scratch web site.
I have tried many times over the past couple months, always the same result with a variety of projects, so no "web hiccup" is likely.
I am running on a Mac with no third party security software. Only native Mac systems settings for security.
So what's up? Why can't I upload? My account name is "efc" in case there is a clue in that. I am running Mac OS 10.4.10 on an Intel MacBook. Scratch reports that it is v.1.1 VM 3.8.14b7y. The "silly.sb" project that failed (among many others) is simply the default project (no changes) saved.
Is there any other way to upload a project? Perhaps something web-based?
Thanks,
...Eric
I am also having the same problem on a MacBook running leopard (os x 10.5). The computer crashes when I try to upload so I have to do it at school.

Re: Cant Share For 'Uknown Reason'
Guess what? I'm having a similar problem. I just downloaded and installed Scratch, and I can't share anything (I always get the "Failed: Unknown Reason" message). I'm running Windows XP, connected to high speed DSL via a wireless adapter, and have never had trouble uploading/downloading from anywhere else. The file I'm trying to share is only 1.21MB, so I have no idea why it's not working.

Re: Cant Share For 'Uknown Reason'
Well, I just successfully shared a tiny little animation of 15.1KB (No images or sounds, just 1 sprite, 4 costumes), but I still can't share my project with 4 sounds, 1 image, and a grand total of 1.21MB.

Re: Cant Share For 'Uknown Reason'
Ok, I just removed the music file from my game, which cut it down to about 500kb, and now I can share it. So I guess it was th .mp3 file I imported, not the two .wav files. Even though the error it gave me wasn't about size, I thought the max was supposed to be 10MB?

Does anyone know how to fix this? My project is 3.23 megabytes in filesize! Please someone help!#38 2010-04-25 08:48:37
