I tried it out and noticed the same issue. I can't post links yet, so I'll copy paste something I found on google that fixed it
This worked for me on a HTC Desire HD:
1) Delete existing credentials via the process/application manager:
Settings - Applications - YouTube - Clear Data
2) Reset credentials from the YouTube application:
YouTube - my channel - instead of choosing the already configured "gmail.com" account select "add account" and then just enter the username without the "@gmail.com". Password is the same.
After doing this, I just selected the @youtube.com account instead of the @gmail.com at the upload screen and it worked fine.
Oh crap. I have the same issue. happen in youtube and picasa. wtf!!!

seriously is it a carrier issue? used to be with AT&T and this stuff happened all the time because of signal issues and that is why we had to leave them. think this might be at least part of the problem for you? I wonder.....

Apparently this is a bug in Android, and should be fixed in Gingerbread, which is a small consolation...

I've had this problem ever since I got my atrix back in march. Unless the file is 9MB all uploads fail for me. I've seen the following, all on wifi:
the 1GB message for files that are 200MB
for files between 20MB and 100MB the upload will go for 5 min or so, then crap out and retry, go for 5 min, crap out and retry etc etc. After 5 retries I just cancel the upload. A 9MB file will upload fine, but that's a 4 sec video...pretty useless.
it's a youtube app issue, I can upload the same video file to dropbox just fine.
It works mostly, sometimes it does the retry thing but files under 100 mb work for me.
Would like to have an app that sync selected folders between my SGS2 and SGT through Bluetooth, because sometimes I do not want upload movies and such to the cloud and then download again, Ideally, they find each other and start sync automatically when Bluetooth is turned on.
All tips are welcome

Does it happen via data or WiFi?
Or both?
Did u verify that they didn't sync by going to desktop site to actually see if they didn't actually sync?
Is it all Google accounts, or just certain ones....
contacts, gmail, voice, pictures, books... etc?
Worse case, sign out and resign in to see if helps

From time to time I have problems with contacts not displaying the pictures and/or numbers etc.
I clear the data for the "Contacts Storage" in Apps and then re-sync. Maybe you could try that and see what happens - Just make sure that you can correctly see your contacts in Gmail on your PC or laptop first and they are backed up!

This sync error occurs both for mobile data and Wifi.
And the sync errors only for contacts. Gmail, browser, photos, and calendar successfully synchronized.
I have tried to sign out then sign in again, but not works, still unable to sync for contacts.
Thanks anyway.

maybe your contac database at gmail was corrupted make another gmail account and copy your contacts to the new gmail and try your phone with the new gmail to sync.
I seem to be seeing after looking that I have the same issue. So I did a couple things like signing in and out and that didn't work. I backed up my contacts and deleted my contacts and that didn't work. However I did find something that works.
1. Export your contacts to SD card so you don't lose anything.
2. Go to Settings and find your Google Account and uncheck Contacts to sync.
3. Go to Settings/Apps slide over to all apps.
4. Go down to Contacts. Force stop and clear data.
5. Go to Contact Storage. Force stop and clear data.
6. Go back to your Google Account and recheck Contacts to sync.
At that point you should notice it takes a few seconds longer to sync but when finished showed it completed. If you lose any contacts actually in the Gmail remember you exported your contacts so you still have them.
To export contacts:
Go to Contacts, hit Menu, then click Import/Export and save to SD card.
I recommend exporting contacts on a reasonable basis anyhow uncase anything happens to the phone and/or Gmail so you still have a hard copy on your SD card. You can never be to sure.
I hope this helps and remember to thank me by clicking the thanks.
Edit: I'm also finding if you are running HaxSync that the problem happens more. May be a bug.
Great alternative to HaxSync is Facebook Contact Sync. Link Below:

Another great alternative to HaxSync is Facebook Contact Sync. I will update my above post with the Play Store link.
It happened for me also with Haxsync when I used the upload pics back to Google option. I unselected it, readded the Google account and it was fine again.

I can say without a doubt that HaxSync causes this problem. 3 phones now this has happened with and I can reproduce it.
Every time I take a picture with my phone. It's instantly synced with all my android devices. I disabled picture syncing and it still uploads it to a folder. It shows under a folder called "auto backup" with the picasa logo. Also I can't figure out how to delete the pictures from that folder. This is soooo annoying.
Are you talking about Google+'s instant upload? I know there are options to sync photos under your Google account settings. I can't remember if instant upload is there as well. Try opening G+ and look in settings.

Go to your accounts on settings. And then hit whichever email account it is. Then uncheck sync picassa.

Just started using Google Drive. You can turn on sync under your Google account, but what is it syncing? Is there a folder somewhere called My Drive? There seems to be from the app, but can't find it in my file manager.
I can sync on my PC, and I have copies on my PC. Does the same happen on my n7? I know Dropbox wouldn't do that, you always had to download the files.

I use the Google drive app and it allows access to anything from my PC synced. The only way I've found to add to GD from my nexus is to use a file manager that allows GD access. I personally use es file explorer

What I thought. I use Solid Explorer, easy access, but no real way to sync to same folders on the N7. Although with SE you can have your right panel GD and your left panel Internal folders, making it easy to move files. I'm just not use to "the cloud" yet.
It just syncs with the cloud where all you files are and if you add a new file via GDrive in PC it wont appear here until you sync.

OK, I do know how it works, I was just wondering if it was one step better than Dropbox, allowing automatic syncing to same folders on the N7. On a PC the folders sync from cloud to PC (like attached), so any editing on PC doesn't require the extra download step.
But all I see on the N7 are the cloud folders. Is there a way to sync them to the same folders on the N7? And if it does have copies of the same folders on the N7, where are they? Just seems logical to me that since there's a "sync" option in the Google account, that's what would be syncing. Or is it just like DB? (just upload syncing)
I think it's just upload syncing, unfortunately.
