Can I sync or import movies from VUDU or Flixter into my Iturnes?  If so how do I do it?

I to would love to know if anyone has found a way to do this.... I purchased several bluray dads, and normally the software gives you the option to use the "ultraviolet" streaming and/or download a copy to iTunes, but these all seem to be Flixter or nothing. I contacted the folks at "UV," "Flixter" and Warner Bros as well, and they all told me "tough luck" on my request to get iTunes versions. Flixter even went so far as to tell me, "...we cannot provide digital copies in every media format for certain films for a variety of logistical reasons." which is total BS, and they know it.
The problem I have is that SOME of these bluray DVDs offer the option of iTunes and other do not, but this is NOT specifically identified on the package -- you really don't have any way of knowing until you open the package and attempt the download. Some will offer you the choice, others will not, but the package, in my experience, never says, 'This will NOT work with iTunes."
This really should be the foundation for a class-action lawsuit against the studios who do this BS "bait and switch" to try to force you to use a less then desirable format or poor quality 'streaming' service. I realize the studios want to make more $$ and that means screwing over Apple/iTunes and by default the consumer, by forcing a shoddy product they make more profit on.... No different than an electronics store pushing you to purchase 'brandX' because it has a higher profit margin for them... except that YOU HAVE THE CHOICE.
Apple could make a killing by accepting their codes for discounts on the iTunes versions... say half-price... just a thought.
But seriously, to all those out there, this really should be put into a class action suit..... I would be on-board.

  • Can I sync music and playlists from my IPhone4s back to my Itunes account?

    Everything on my ITunes disappeared.  I got some of it back but noticed that all of my Playlists and some of my music is gone.  Everything is still on my phone.  Can I sync anything back from my phone to my ITunes?
    Thanks!!

    Have you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer?

  • I can't upload or import videos from my iphoto library, into final cut pro x.  When i click, IMPORT MEDIA in FCP, It lists iPhoto Library as GRAY, and will not let me access it.  I need the videos out of there.  I have tried every way I can think of.

    Like the title says...
    I can't upload or import videos from my iphoto library, into final cut pro x.  When i click, IMPORT MEDIA in FCP, It lists 'iPhoto Library' as GRAY, and will not let me select it.  I need the videos out of there.  I have tried every way I can think of.
    I have also tried from the iphoto side, to export the videos or share them to final cut.  I have had no luck.
    I have tried to drag and drop indidual video clips from iphoto to fcp, and the programs simply do not respond to each other
    I can see in the OLDER version of final cut pro x, where it has IMPORT FILES as an option, it was possible.  I see this on forums and youtube videos of the older versions.
    However, the newer version that i have, does not have IMPORT 'FILES' as an option, it is simply all lumped together as IMPORT 'MEDIA'
    Thank You for the Help

    at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
    Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
    All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

  • How do i import movies from my sony camera into iphoto?

    When I imported my photos from my sony cybershot into iphoto my videos did not come along with them. I've been using a canon with canon image browser until now and never had this problem. HELP!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Launch Image Capture, located in the Applications folder, connect the camera and manually upload the movie files to a folder on the desktop. Then import into iPhoto.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Can someone help with importing video from Canon XA10 (AVCHD) into PE 11?

    In PE 11 when I import video from my canon xa10 (avchd) the quality is terrible, I also have a canon xa20, 60D and gopro that I video with and they all turn out with great video quality.  Is there a reason why the xa10 video quality is bad? Setting I need to change?

    Thanks for the follow up.
    In Premiere Elements 11 and 12 takes over setting the project preset based on the properties of the first file drag to the Timeline. Sometimes it does it right; sometimes not. You can check what the project has set by using the readings from Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio even if the fields look grayed out. If the project preset is set for NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080p30, then the Edit Menu/Project Settings/General should be as represented in the following screenshot
    Please refer to setting the project preset yourself manually and then importing the source media into the project.

  • Can you sync two iphones to the same computer but with different itunes account

  • Can I sync both my ipod Touch and iphone to the same itunes account.

    I have an ipod touch and ipod classic that both sync to the same itunes account, and I'm thinking of getting an iphone. Will I be able to use the same apps on the iphone and ipod touch?

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    It won't be a problem. You can use an 'unlimited' number of devices (iPods, iPhones etc) on a single iTunes account.
    I rushed off to O2 on Friday after work and got myself an iPhone.
    I backed up the iPod touch first (which was running 3.0 by that time) and then activated the iPhone using the iPod touch backup. Pretty much everything synced across exactly as it was on the touch (i.e. all Apps and paid apps), notes etc. One app I had never got to run on the iPod (iOSMaps) suddenly appeared on the iPhone too. Much like when you get a new Mac you find that all your settings and windows are preserved. When I opened Safari on the iPhone the last two pages I'd been looking at on the iPod were open. The only things that didn't sync were my emails - which of course downloaded shortly after the account details were synced (this is as expected), the iPhone suddenly being named 'iPod touch', my home WiFi password didn't sync and my email signature (not surprisingly still read - Sent from my iPod touch'.)
    regards

  • Can not import movies from a file folder into iPhoto 11 on my iMac

    I have movies in Iphoto on Macbook but when i try to import the movies into Iphoto 11 on my IMAC i get a message that says format unrecognized. 

    Download and install QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later on your iMac and see if they will play with that. 
    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Trfy to Import the folder of videos into that library. Can you?

  • Can anyone help me figure out how to use my new LaCie external hard drive to import movies from my camcorder into imovie '09? I ran into so many problems last night!! Was up way past my bedtime!

    Can anyone help me figure out how to use my new LaCie external hard drive to import movies from my camcorder into imovie '09? I ran into so many problems last night!! Was up way past my bedtime!

    I'll stay in this chat ... I answered in the other one ... I have a Sony digital Handycam ... from years ago.  I just got the LaCie and I think I formatted it for only to be used on my Mac ... how should I go about reformatting it to be HFS Extended like you said?

  • Can I use Final Cut Express 4.0.1. to import movies from Panasonic VDR-D250?

    Can I use Final Cut Express 4.0.1. to import movies from Panasonic VDR-D250 via USB 2.0? How? (page in handbook?)
    Further specifications of this older camera:
    USB 2.0
    DVD-RAM (cannot be inserted in my MBP!)
    50-PAL (signal)
    MPEG2
    Dolby Digital
    I want to use FCE if possible but maybe could try to install the software of this camera on Windows virtual XP also on my MBP?

    I forward an answer of Panasonic (written in German):
    So Panasonic does not offer a software which is compatible with Apple!
    Bezug nehmend auf Ihre Anfrage teilen wir Ihnen mit, dass der Camcorder
    VDR-D250 die Videoaufnahmen nach dem DVD-Videostandard sowie nach dem
    DVD-VR-Standard aufnehmen kann. Wir können jedoch nicht beurteilen ob Ihre
    Software Final Cut Express 4.0.1 die Bearbeitung dieser Standards
    unterstützt. Seitens Panasonic wird weder eine Apple kompatible software
    noch Support für Apple Geräte angeboten. Wenden Sie sich diesbezüglich
    bitte an Ihren Apple Händler oder Ihren Computeradministrator. Die
    mitgelieferte Software des Camcorders ist ausschließlich für folgende
    Betriebssysteme vorgesehen:
    - Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
    - Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
    - Microsoft Windows XP Professional
    Ob diese Software in einer virtuellen Umgebung genutzt werden kann ist uns
    nicht bekannt. Um die mit dem Camcorder aufgenommenen DVDs an einem
    Computer-Laufwerk auslesen zu können müssen diese vorab mit dem Camcorder
    finalisiert werden. Ausnahme ist die Verwendung einer DVD-RAM.

  • Can't import movies from photobooth into imovie

    In iMovie 11 (v9.0.4), our network users are unable to import movies from the isight camera. (File, Import from Camera).  As soon as you click on "capture", then use the default event name, you get an error:
    "You may not have permissions to write to /Network/Servers/rbserver.lan/SERVER_USERDATA/iMovie Events.localized."
    I've tried creating this directory on the local machine, per this suggestion:  http://lists.apple.com/archives/macos-x-server/2010/Apr/msg00305.html but to no avail...
    Do you know how to fix this problem?

    I can't help you with your server question, but here is how I move and import video clips from Photo Booth into iMovie over my LAN:
    (1) Use the Photo Booth > File > Export menu command
         to create the actual clip I will move.
    (2) Quit Photo Booth.
    (3) File transfer the exported Photo Booth clip to the Mac that will do the iMovie work.
    (4) Use the iMovie > File > Import > Movies... menu command
         to import the clip into iMovie.
    (5) Clean up (throw away) unneeded clips on both Macs.

  • Cannot import Movie from iTunes on MacBook to iMac. Error says computer not

    When I try to import the movie from the shared folder on my laptop to the desktop I get an error message that says this computer is not authorized. All of my computers have been authorized.

    If you purchased and not rented, it should let you stream this to your TV?
    You can't defeat the DRM protection from TV or movie purchases from iTunes.
    There are two things you can try though if you purchased and not rented.
    If, you have a computer with up to date version of iTunes on it, Delete the movie from your iPad and try downloading it from iTunes on your computer.
    From there you have two options. One is to connect the iPad to your computer and sync it to the iPad, the try playing the movie from your iPad connected to your TV.
    The other option is to leave the movie on iTunes on your computer. In iTunes main menu bar under Advanced, turn on Home Sharing. On your iPad activate iTunes Home Sharing, by going into the settings app, locate the video app settings menu on the left pane, then under Home Sharing, type in your Apple ID and password to activate this feature on the iPad.
    Go to the video app, itself. You should see a Sharing tab pop-up. Tap this and an icon representing your iTunes library on your computer should appear. Tap this. Let it load. Under the movies tab, search for your downloaded movie, tap the movie and tap the play button to begin streaming the movie from your computer to your iPad connected to your TV.
    If this is a rental, you can only view and play the movie from one device at a time. If rented, it may not let you view the movie from other than the iPad or iTunes on the computer or AppleTV.
    If delete this from the iPad, download the rental movie to iTunes on your computer and follow my procedure for sharing your iTunes library, you maybe able to stream this from your computer to the iPad to your TV in that manner.

  • Can I sync podcasts and ITunesU. from one computer to another that both have the same acount.

    Can I sync podcasts and ITunesU. from one computer to another that both have the same account.

    No.  Time Machine won't get your boot camp partition back.  There are excellent utilities that move entire hard drive contents among hard drives such as SuperDuper! and CCC, but as far as I know they don't work with boot camp partition.  My suggestion: reinstall Mac OSX on your new Mac (you don't want to hold Option key to start it everytime anyway), partition it with boot camp exactly (or similarly) as you did to your previous Mac (install the same operating system, which should be one of the Microsoft Windows I assume).  Use Migration Assistant as kaz-k suggested to move all the stuff on the Mac partition of your previous Mac.  Reboot both your Macs from the boot camp partition - I assume they are all on Windows platform.  Now you have two computers on Windows platform.  Use Norton Ghost or similar tools to migrate all the stuff from your old machine to your new machine.  Hope this helps.  Backup all your data before such operation.  Good luck.
