How do you get a video from a video camera on youtube?

I have this video on a video cam corder I want to put on youtube but I don't have any way of getting it on the computer. It's not a digital camera it's a video cam corder.

1. Whatever type of video cmcorder u have, u have to buy a cord for it to hook it to your computer..I don't know where you can buy a cord, Try looking up the brand of the cam corder to see if the brand has a website, where you might be able to purchase the cord there.
2. What kind of camcorder do you have? Most camcorders have a USB port. Connect that from your camcorder to your pc. There should be a box that pops up, scroll down and click open folder to view files then click ok. if the box does't come up then go to "My Computer" then look for something called "Removable Disk" it should have a letter beside it, but as long as it says removable disk. then look for your video and copy it to where ever you want on your pc. you can then uplug your USB if you want to. then go to youtube click upload the click the gray box that says upload video and find the file you want to upload then add a title and description and everything like that. wait for it to upload and process and there you go. your video should be on youtube if it doesn't violate youtubes terms of service.
3. Take the SD card out of the camera and put it into your computer if nothing pops up saying view files go to my computer and select SD or what ever type of memory card and make sure its working. You need to download windows movie maker (go to google and type in windows movie maker download) and then open WMM up andclick on the button to the left that says import pictures and upload the pictures you want, you can add titles,credits,special affects, videos and music if you wish (look on google for a tutorial if you dont know how) - click publish to computer then upload to youtube from the youtube website (you need a youtube account) you can do this by clicking the yellow upload button from the homepage when you are logged in. you can also do the same thing with a USB cable. (it has to be less than 10 minutes long unless your a partner) and depending on how big the video is it may take 20 minutes and over to upload to youtube .
