Home Video Not Installing on Ipad Mini Retina

I have converted a home video using DVD Catalyst Free.
I have copied the file into Itunes and it plays OK. I then manually copied the file to my Ipad mini. Although the DVD Catalyst web site says to left click the file and my device should show on the right in my case the device shows on the left underneath my laptop Itunes library.
When I look at the Ipad Films library on my laptop it shows 5 items installed including the one in question. When I left click the file it plays OK on the laptop.
However the file doesn't show on the Ipad i.e I have 4 not 5 files available.
I "transferred" the file to the Ipad by dragging it across from Itunes Film library (where it show complete with the opening screen shot) to the Device.
I have asked this question on the Ipad Forums.Net site (to whom I am grateful) and been told that there doesn't seem anything wrong with the file and I probably need to reset the Ipad, which is something I am not comfortable with as it is my wife's Ipad and she would literally kill me if I messed it up.
This is an image of the file properties.
I was just wondering whether someone here might have an alternative solution to the problem or can explain why it;s happening as my other home videos have all installed correctly.
Many thanks

Hi Alfred, very curious update.
As I have said I have some home movies stored under Movies >Home Videos and yesterday I was talking with my duaghter-in-law about whether it would be possible to share this with her Ipad but couldn't come up with anyway to do that. I looked at Dropbox and Instashare but they don't, as far as I can see, allow me to access my home videos, they only seem to work with camera roll and purchased movies.
Anyway, this morning I was messing about with the Ipad Movies>Home Videos page nd by chance I touched the heading where my original 4 videos are displayed and suddenly the USA video appeared (nearly fell off my chair) and it worked OK. The date is shown as 23rd March 2014.
Back stepped and tried it a couple of times and it was OK. It would seem that the Ipad has stored the original 4 videos on one page and the USA one on another. The original 4 don't show any video content i.e the opening screen just a grayed box with a move film icon and the title whereas the USA video on the second page shows the opening screen shot.
It isn't possible to drag from one page to another I have to click the Home Videos title at the top of the page to move from one set to another.
It's great news I have my video after all but any clues as to what's happening? I would have thought it would fill the first page before going to a second. Is the clue perhaps in the way one set don't have the opening screen and the USA one does?
Also, any suggestions as to how I can share these with my daughter-in-law?

Handoff not working between iPad Mini Retina and 2014 Macbook Air

So, I've upgraded to Yosemite today on my 2014 Macbook Air and have updated to iOS 8.0.2 on my iPad Mini Retina.
Both are on the same wifi network. Both have bluetooth enabled and are paired.
Both have handoff enabled on them.
With all that, I cannot for the life of me get handoff/continuity to work between them. I've reset both machines and reset network settings on the iPad but still no joy.
Am I missing something?
PS I don't have an iPhone, but I'm assuming it should work between an MBA and iPad?
Thanks in advance.

Hello JMC1989,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like there is a problem with handoff. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

Home Video Option Missing in Ipad Mini

Hi,
So I've had my ipad mini for almost 2 years and it has worked brilliantly until lately.
I've been uploading videos via itunes to my ipad and it shows up under Videos -> Home Videos.
So, most of the time I can just add new videos in and have no issues but lately I keep having this issue.
I will drag some videos from itunes into ipad but when i pop into my ipad section, it shows that the videos are not sync'ed in.
Then i will click sync and the next thing i know is, the memory bar at the bottom would indicate e.g. from initially 9GB of free space to 20GB of free space.
When I go to my physical ipad to access the videos, the "Home Video" option isn't even there. But the videos on itunes, on the ipad section still indicates they are there.
I've tried sync'ing again.
I've tried deleting all the videos and drag them back in and sync'ing but it doesn't work. The "Home Video" just doesn't come back.
My only solution so far has been to restore Ipad. Which literally erases all my data and sets it back to a completely new Ipad.
Depending on time and date of my backup sometimes restoring to backup date may or may not work.
Any idea what's the problem and how i can resolve this?
Help is very, very much appreciated.
Thank you.

Garageband pre-installed on iPad mini Retina ?

I bought a iPad mini with Retina display, but cannot find garageband pre-installed (as stated on the site); on Appstore, I can download a free version of the app, but it is very limited (only a few instruments are available).
Do I miss something ?
Thx

You didn't miss anything. There are the 'on the device and cannot delete them' apps, and then there are the free additions from iTunes. Garage Band is one of those free additions.
Even the webpage shows them all as built in apps, but not all are
http://www.apple.com/ipad-mini/built-in-apps/
GarageBand is free on the App Store for all iOS 7 compatible devices; additional GarageBand instruments and sounds are available with an in-app purchase.

IPad mini retina in-built microphones

Hey guys, when I'm doing voice calls and videos calls via my ipad mini retina, my friend would say that i sounded too soft. So I did some voice recordings to test out the microphones and I can hardly hear my own voice in the video except if I turned the volume to maximum. My speakers work perfectly.
Currently, I'm using a 32gb iPad mini retina, in a griffin survivor case. At the beginning I thought the problem was caused by the case I used, ie, blocks the passage to the mics, so I took off the case and tried to make video calls and did some recordings - same thing happened.
Tried restarting the device, and reseted settings.
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

If you have concerns, I'd make an appointment and take it in and have it checked out.

Ipad mini retina video problem

I have an ipad mini retina 32 gig, and no videos will play (netflix, youtube, internet browser), but facebook videos will. Pictures will load perfectly but videos will not. On video screens like netflix a picture of the content loads but the video just buffers at a black screen until an error message occurs. I have tries resetting the ipad with the power and home screen buttons, reinstalling the apps, and reconfiguring wifi. This hasn't fixed it. Any suggestions?

Try this. Reset all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but you will have to re enter all of the iPad preferred settings that you entered in the settings app.

Ipad mini Retina (iOS 7.1.1) front camera not working

I had just noticed that my front facing camera doesn't work on my iPad mini retina. Both it and my iPhone 5S are running the latest of iOS. My iPhone works but not my ipad. Anybody run into the same issue. About to go down to the apple store and get it figured out. Already did a refresh on the ipad, refresh from backup. Help?

Hi Chrisrd77,
If the camera on your iPad is not functioning correctly I would suggest following the steps in this article relating to the camera. Note that the article is primarily about iPhones but the camera troubleshooting steps are the same for the iPad -
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Specifically -
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

IPad Mini Retina not syncing with iTunes

My iPad Mini Retina has not been syncing with iTunes for some time.
I have reset it - by holding down the home and power key. I am using the new Macbook Air 2014 - because it has crashed on a few occasions it has also been restarted recently.
I am running IOS 7.1.2 on the Mini and 11.3 on the Mac Air. It has stopped at various parts but the last few times has been stopping at Step 4 of the sync. A few people seem to have had this issue but I have not found a resolution yet.

Why iPad mini retina smart unlock/lock function not working when I using 3rd party cover with magnetic

I recently bought a leather case from store with smArt unlock/lock function with magnetic. I try to use it on my iPad mini retina when I try to close and open it doesn't work. I already on my smart unlock function inside setting. May I know where is the magnetic area of iPad mini retina ?

The "Lock/Unlock" feature is enabled by installing a compatible Smart Cover/Case (or third-party equivalent) with an embedded magnet in the correct position in the cover. Are you using a real Apple product? If not, the cover/case you are using may not have the magnet in the right place or may not even have one at all.
If you ARE using a real Apple Smart Cover/Case and you have an Apple Store nearby, have them check both the case and cover you are using. You may have a bad magnectic switch on the iPad or a faulty cover/case.
I also remember reading here of a Smart Case/Cover which had the magnet installed upside-down and was repelling rather than attracting. You might want to take the cover off and flip it to verify this...you'll have to slide the cover around in different positions on the right-hand bezel on the iPad to see if you can activate the magnet.

IPad mini retina - native video frame rate

I'm trying to shoot 30fps HD video with my iPad mini (Retina). I was under the impression that the iPad mini's native video format is 30fps. But when I import my footage into iPhoto, it turns out to be only 24fps.
So - what's the Mini's correct native video format (including frame rate)? Is there an easy way to change the capture rate? Is there an app that allows capture at different frame rates?

Try this. Reset all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but you will have to re enter all of the iPad preferred settings that you entered in the settings app.

What is the meaning, or significance, of the greyed out word "installed" next to the iBooks app icon in the iTunes list of apps on my new iPhone6, or slightly older iPad mini, retina display?

What is the meaning, or significance, of the greyed out word “installed” next to the iBooks app icon in the iTunes lists of apps on my new iPhone6, or slightly older iPad mini, retina display? Both devices have iOS8.0.2 installed. Both are having problems downloading some books that had been purchased previously for other devices. And, before installing iOS8, the full list of had been downloaded to the iPad mini with iOS7.
Finding out what the greyed outness means may help me figure out how to get all my books loaded on both devices. Any suggestions how to do that also would be appreciated.

Thank you. Your explanation of why the word "installed" is greyed out makes sense. But that raises the further question of why then is it shown at all. There are other apps on both devices that can not be removed,and they are just not shown. This is the only app that has the greyed out "install" notation. All of the other apps shown are either identified by "remove" meaning it is installed and can be removed; "install" meaning it is not installed but can be; or "update" meaning it has been replaced by a more current version which can be installed.
All of the books that I want to install have been on an iPhone4 that was replaced by the iPhone6, and were on the iPad Mini with iOS7 before iOS8 was installed. Installation of iOS8 on the iPad removed all of the books and only a few of them were later added by syncing with iTunes. Since most of the books I am interested in are free or of small cost, I would be happy to delete all of them from iTunes and then reinstall the ones I want directly on the devices. But I have not been able to delete them and when I try to install them on a device I am told that they already have been downloaded. Very frustrating.

You want to just use Dropbox until the dust settles. To use it from iWork for iOS (assuming you have the Dropbox app installed on your device), open the document in Keynote (for example), tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), choose Open in Another App, choose Keynote as your format, then choose Open in Dropbox and you will get an option to save it to your Dropbox account. To open it from Dropbox in iWork for iOS, open the document in the Dropbox app, tap the share icon, tap Open in Keynote (for example). It's a bit clunky, but works.
