DVD movies on to Itunes

Can I put my DVD movies on to Itunes to move to my Iphone?
like with cds
(not home movies)
compaq Windows XP

why?
Ripping DVDs would entail breaking an encryption schema. That is forbidden under the DCMA and thusly, the Apple TOU. They make a specific point about DVD ripping.
Section 6.8.2:
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.

Is it possible to download a dvd movie into my itunes account so i can put it on my ipad?

Is it possible to download a dvd movie into my itunes account so i can put it on my ipad? If so, how?

Sorry, but if you're referring to commercial and hence copy-protected video DVDs, breaking the copy protection, which would be necessary to copy the videos from the DVD and convert them, is illegal in the US (and other countries) and hence Apple explicitly forbids such posts. We're therefore not allowed to discuss it here. Some DVDs and Blu-Ray movies come with a "digital copy" that allows you to download a copy of the movie for use on computers and portable devices. You might see if any of the DVDs you have come with such a feature. Walmart/Vudu also has a service that basically gives you a digital copy of a DVD you already own. See:
http://www.vudu.com/disc_to_digital.html
If these are home movies that you or someone has burned to DVD and hence are not copy-protected, Handbrake (freeware) is one of the more popular converters. Once converted, you just drag the movie into the iTunes window on your computer.

DVD Movies copied to Itunes

I'm a NEW Mac user. Is there any way to copy movie DVD's that I OWN to iTunes, so I can watch them on the plane without dragging the actual DVD's?? I was told at the apple store I could, but I can't seem to make it work. Music CD's work fine.
Thanks

I was looking into this myself and I came across a program called Handbrake. I believe that Handbrake will rip and convert DVDs (and other media) to play in iTunes and on iPod Video.
I tried it yesterday and the file converted fine, however, I couldn't import the file into iTunes... I suspect that has more to do with my lack of knowledge that Handbrake itself.

Hope that helps you a bit!

DVD Movie upload to iTUnes

If I want to watch movies on a iPod movie, how can I import my personal home DVD's onto iTunes so I can watch them on a iPod Movie 80GB

If you are talking about Store bought movies you cannot ask that question here!
If they are family DVDs you are best converting from the .mov you used to make the DVDs. Compressor has ready made presets and its own discussion group here on the apple forums,

Merry Christmas Holly!
They must be in mp4 format. With quicktime pro, you can convert videos to the file type that itunes will recognize and that will play on the video ipod...
Or you can download this free converter...

Download DVD movie for iTunes Store not showing up in my purchased items

I downloaded a DVD movie from the iTunes store but it's not showing up in my iTunes application or any where else that I can see. What am I doing wrong?

I am having the same problem. Have you heard anything back on this, or figured out anything that might help me as well?

Using Handbrake to burn DVD movie to iTunes to sync to iTouch

What steps do you take to burn a DVD movie to iMac iTunes so you can sync it when iTouch is hooked to it?

Burning is creating a CD/DVD as when you burn the disc with the laser.
RIP is getting the stuff off a CD/DVD.
It is illegal to RIP DVDs to your computer (even if you purchased the DVD), therefore cannot be discussed in these forums.

Is is possible to convert the movies purchased on itunes to DVD?

Is is possible to convert the movies purchased on itunes to DVD? (In other words you would be burning the movie or tv shows to a blank DVD).

You can store just what you want on the external. Just set up folders for what you want. I have a music folder, movies and TV shows, and pictures folders. I also have mine partitioned for OSX and Windows. I have a few files I need if I am running on windows so I keep them on the windows side. I always keep a back up of my documents and a few other files it is a pain to download on the external.
You can also copy every folder and file on your machine to the external if it is big enough. This is a true copy not a back up file generated by a back up program. I like to do this if I get adventuresome and plan to do some major experimenting with my software. Saves having to reload everything if it crashes.

How do I get DVD movies into iTunes (and thus my iPad)?

I have a pc with Windows XP. How do I import my DVD movies into iTunes? Do I need to buy additional software? Or is my best bet joining netflix?
Thanks!

you can copy them for your own use.
Copying is not the issue. Breaking the encryption is.
But it's kind of a catch 22 in that you cannot copy a DVD unless you break the encryption.
in Europe it is not
Europe is not one country.
Most European countries have their own equivalent of the DMCA and it is illegal to break the encryption in some of these countries.

Is there any way to import my OWN DVD movies into iTunes and my video iPod?

I just purchased the new 30 GB video iPod last week, and although I have already purchased a few movies from the iTunes store, I wanted to know if there was a way to import a DVD movie from my own DVD library like we can with our own music CDs?
Thanks,

"That's too bad, because these are movies (DVDs) that I own and have purchased legally myself. How is that different from importing your own purchased CDs into iTunes? Seems like a double standard to me."
About "legally owning" the DVDs - Yes, I understand, and I'm figuring that most folks who want to put their DVDs onto their iPod are owning the movies legally (or, at least, it appears so).
That's not really the issue here, though.
The problem is, there is an encryption that is written onto regular, copyrighted DVDs (i.e., movies). In order to get that onto your iPod, you will have to use software on your computer that breaks that encryption, and makes the file into some more "normal" format, like say, MP4.
This action can arguably be considered as illegal, in a sense, since you are removing the encryption that's on DVD, which is protecting it from being easily copied, and transferred around. (which would be illegal).
This is a bit different than CDs, since, although they are copyrighted too, the songs are usually not in a protected format.
If you have a song that you've purchased from the iTunes Store, and you want to break into that "protected" file format, that's the same kind of issue as the DVD ripping.
(Notice that the Hosts included that into the ADUA as well, right along with DVD ripping.)
...It's quite an interesting kind of subject, isn't it?

Are you allowed to import a DVD movies onto iTunes?

Are you allowed to import DVD movies (eg: Batman Begins, Spider Man,...) onto iTunes now that it has the "Videos" Source?

Thirty days from the time of rental, or 24(USA)/48 hours from the time it's first played, whichever comes first.
