G'day,

I took a 2 minute video on my iPhone 5S (approx 300MB).

I want to send a copy of it to my wife's iPhone 5.

Why is such a seemingly simple procedure appearing to be so difficult???

Surely I shouldn't need 3rd party software to achieve this?

Can someone please walk me through the process?

Thanks,

cosmic

Make sure air drop turned on for both phones

Open up your camera roll

Ah, ok.

I had tried Airdrop, but it didnt see anyone out there...

I had to set both phones to talk to "Everyone" before they could talk - despite being in each others contacts.

Video transferred.
