How can I move an itunes movie to my wife's ipad?

Hi -
I bought some videos from the iTunes store. Now I want to put them on my wife's ipad so we can watch them while traveling.
If I try to simply plug the ipad into my mbp the sync wants to erase her entire itunes content so it doesn't look like a direct transfer is possible.
What is the procedure for getting itunes movies from my MBP to my wife's iPad?
I thought I was able to use iTunes content on up to 5 devices.
Have I misunderstood how this works?
Thanks for some clarification.

Ipad will sync to one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
Copy the movie to your wifes computer.

Thank you so much for the replies.
Thanks all it took for me to discover that my Sign In was wrong.
I was using my regular email of ******@Gmail.com instead of correctly using ******@me.com!
It then went through without a hitch.
All is well.

Just email it.
In iTunes, drag the file to the desktop.
On the desktop, select the file right click Share > email.
I just want to send my sister one song from my iTunes because its a recording of her daughter when she was 2. She no longer has the file and I only have it saved in my iTunes from a long ago. The only known file is the one I have saved on iTunes.
You do make regular backups of your computer, correct?
Use Time Machine?

How can I copy my ITunes sync files for my iPhone, iPad and iPod from my now discontinued PC to my new Mac?

I want to be able to use my Macbook Pro to sync my IOS devices with I Tunes, but I think I need the files from the PC that I was using to sync them. Or maybe not !! Perhaps if I just connect them to the Mac, ITunes will do the rest???? Or does it need the sync history?
Or perhaps the Cloud can do it all and I don't need ITunes anymore. I have been using it also to back up the IOS devices and that's important too.
Help will be appreciated very much.

The Apple Store will do this for you.
You can call Apple support and they will walk you through it.
You can type "Move itunes library from pc to mac" into the google search bar.

How can I share my itunes items with my wife?

Anyone know how I can share items in my itunes library with my wife? We both have Iphones but I don't know how to be able to let her download from
my library.

Fingers crossed, the following document may be of some help with that:

How can I play the iTunes that I have in my iPad in my PC?

I have bought several albulms and songs at iTunes for my iPad, and I want to listen that music in my HP. Please tell me how can I do it?

The easiest way will be to search VersionTracker for "iPod". You'll find a number of utilities that can transfer your tracks and your playlists from your iPod to your PC.
It's also possible to do this manually, but the procedure is rather involved. If you're interested, though, see this thread:

How can I share my iPhoto library with my wife's iPad?

Is it possible to share my iPhoto library (Yosemite) with my wife's iPad? She doesn't have a separate mac, but she does have her own apple ID.

No
You can share selected photos using PhotoStream - you can not share the library
Next year the Photos App for the Mac should be able to share the library on iCloud using iCloud photo library

How can I manage an Itunes library with an Itouch and Ipad?

What I mean is, my mom has an 8gb itouch, and a 32gb ipad. So I want to help her make cuts so all her music fits on the smaller itouch. So how would I go about doing this? Do I uncheck everything in her itunes library that I don't want synced? I tried doing this, but the amount of space it takes doesn't change no matter how many songs I uncheck. Am I doing this wrong?

Make playlists.
Sync whatever playlists you like to each device.

Any suggestions?

you cant do it from the ipad itself
the best way would be to add the contacts to whatever you will set her ipad to sync with like coogle contacts or outlook or .......
or you can set her ipad to sync them up to icloud connected to her appleID

You don't use Airplay. You set up Home Sharing on both and under the Computers section of AppleTV you'll then find it under Movies (or Rentals if rented), assuming it's in a compatible format.

My itunes is on an old computer. So old that I can't update it and so Haven't used it in two years. How can I move it to my new laptop and make sure this doesn't happen again? Very frustrated that I've spend $$ but can't get my music.

My itunes is on an old computer. So old that I can't update it and so Haven't used it in two years. How can I move it to my new laptop and make sure this doesn't happen again? Very frustrated that I've spend $$ but can't get my music.
I want so set up itunes on my laptop and make sure that I get all of my old music and any music shared from my sons' itunes accounts. Do I have to set up itunes on my new laptop first and then use the same logins? Really concerned about losing any music, etc.

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

How can I move my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library (with my cps ripped) to my Mac iTunes library?

Just for my curiosity and knowledge,
I have a PC (Windows 7) and a Mac (OS X 10.10).
Both of them with the latest version of iTunes.
Both of them with the exact music library (genre, artist, album, etc).
All my music is coming from iTunes Store, so very easy to re download at any time I want with my Apple ID
My PC (Windows 7) computer has a CD/DVD drive. I would like to RIP some music from my CDs and add them to my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library.
Once I finished, how can I move my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library (with my cps ripped) to my Mac iTunes library?
Thank you so much

If you've downloaded the media idependently to each library so far then thet won't be exactly the same as there are different naming rules for the files and folders in OS X and Windows. See Make a split library portable for some general advice. You can move a portable library between Mac and Windows, but there is a delay opening the library after each change of OS.
