Can't transfer Movies due to "lost" Apple ID Password

Here's the situation. Bought a new computer for my son and need to transfer his ITunes library over to the new computer. The music files transferred without any problems, but the movies did not. I copied a movie to a flash drive and then copied it onto my son's new computer. When he tries to open it, it asks for his Apple ID and passwoord. Here's the hitch, my son cannot remember his passowrd and the email account which is his Apple ID is no longer active. (Hasn't been for a couple of years.) Apple wants to send the "new passowrd" info to this email but obviosly we can't access that expired email. Tried the other option and entered my son's birthdate but it says the info provided is incorrect. Thoughts?

  • Can I transfer movies/tv shows to apple tv for storage to free up HD space?

    Just wondering since my macbook pro is quickly becoming full. Any info would be appreciated, I haven't been able to find a solution.
    Thanks!

    short answer, no.
    the appletv is not a primary storage device, and as such it is designed to only have copies of your content, and not the only content.
    your master library is still itunes and as such itunes should always have all your content in it.
    if you are running out of space then i suggest some external storage.

  • How can I transfer movies from one apple to another

    How can I transfer movies form my macbook pro to my apple air?

    If you have a wireless network, you can enable file sharing with each and transfer select data from one to the other via your wi-fi network.
    Or if you have an external drive used for backup purposes, you can transfer the movies that way.
    If you have Home Sharing enabled with iTunes on each and a wireless network, you don't need to transfer anything unless you want the movie available when away from home.

  • How can I transfer movies from the apple tv to the ituenes, to watch in the ipad?

    how can I transfer movies from the apple tv to the ituenes, to watch in the ipad?

    Is this a rental or a purchase?
    Rentals on ATV cannot be transferred.
    The 2nd and 3rd gen model do not have accessible storage. Some movie purchases are stored in iCloud (if you live in the US) where you can reload in iTunes on your computer)
    If you own the 1st gen aluminum model then it should be set to sync

  • Can I transfer calendar data from one Apple ID to another?

    Just realized that my calendars and email were all sharing one Apple ID with my husband which is problematic because I want my own devices syncing up properly. I've set up my own Apple ID, but before I activate it on my devices I want to be sure I don't lose all the data. Can I transfer a calendar from one Apple ID to another and if so, can I do this from the devices themselves or do I need my desktop?
    I've read some earlier related posts and they don't seem to answer this question clearly for me.
    Thanks so much!

    You will probably need to do this on your Mac; I'm not sure it's possible on an iPhone. You have to deal with one calendar at a time.
    Select a calendar listed under your husbands iCloud login name.
    From the File menu choose Export...>Export. An .ics file will be saved at your designated destination.
    Repeat this for any other calendars.
    Sign out in System Preferences>iCloud and sign in with your own ID. Your calendars and other data will disappear from your Mac but not from the server.
    From the File menu choose 'New Calendar' then your iCloud login name in the sub menu.
    A new calendar called 'Untitled' will appear in your sidebar under your iCloud login name. Change its name to that of the calendar you exported.
    From the File menu choose 'Import...' then 'Import...' from the sub-menu. A navigation pane will open: navigate to and choose your exported .ics file.
    iCal will ask you where to import this to. Click the drop-down menu and select the iCloud version of your calendar (make sure not to choose the 'On My Mac' version). Import.
    Your calendar contents will appear in the iCloud version of the calendar but this may take some time. You need to leave iCal running until the rotating icon at the top of the sidebar disappears.
    Repeat 5-9 for other calendars.

  • How can I transfer .mov files to my iPad?

    How can I transfer .mov files to my iPad?

    If it's on a SD card in your camera, you cau use the camera connection kit, either by connecting the camera or inserting the SD card.
    If it's on your computer, you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Can I transfer a slide show to Apple TV and then take my Apple TV to another home and plug it into the TV and play that slideshow for those friends?

    Can I transfer a slide show to Apple TV and then take my Apple TV to another home and plug it into the TV and play that slideshow for those friends?

    If you mean transfer a slideshow from your computer then no. It is not storing it but rtaher streaming from the computer over your local network. The old model had an accessible hard-drive that would have allowed this.
