How can I put my dvds on ipad? Can anyone recommend what software I need?

Hi Im going on holiday and want to put some of my son's dvds on his ipad2. Can anyone tell me how to convert files or recommed software?

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, so we're 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, the aforementioned Handbrake (freeware) is one of the more popular converters. Once converted, you just drag the movie into the iTunes window on your computer and you can then sync it to your iPad.
Regards.

Look in the settings and restrictions. If you don't see an icon then it's possibly been restricted. Enter the code and unrestrict it.

"Can you put purchased DVD movies that you have on your ipod? "
No. breaking the encryption in order to copy them illegal.
" what about recorded DVD's that you have? "

How do I put a DVD in and transfer it as one file to my external?

What you are referring to is called "ripping". You can use something like HandBrake which is free to do this. HandBrake will not allow you to do this with commercial / encrypted content (e.g. most movies which you might purchase on DVD).

How do i put apps from my iPad 2 onto my macbook pro?

How do i put apps from my iPad 2 onto my macbook pro?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you mean to back them up, just connect the device to iTunes and sync.
If you mean to use, you can't, those apps will only run on a mobile device.

I just PAID for Black eyed peas Time of my life and now iTunes says I can't put it on my iPod 5th gen ? What? Why? And how can I get it on my ipod?

I just PAID for Black eyed peas Time of my life and now iTunes says I can't put it on my iPod 5th gen ? What? Why? And how can I get it on my ipod? And if I can't put it on my ipod how do I get my money back? I registered my ipod on iTunes, why was a song I can't put on my ipod even offered to me? What a rip?

Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
- Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
- Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup.
Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
To move mdia to the new computer see:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

Im making a photo slide show using imovie. how will i make a dvd copy that can play in both pc and dvd player. i dont have an idvd anymore. m using a mbp early 2011 osx 10.8.5

im making a photo slide show using imovie. how will i make a dvd copy that can play in both pc and dvd player. i dont have an idvd anymore. m using a mbp early 2011 osx 10.8.5.
after making the photo slide show, i clicked share>export movie. after which i burned using toast. the file became a .mov. i tried playing it in my mac and it worked. my fear now is will it also play in a regular dvd?... i read from google that mov files won't run in dvd players. what format should i convert it to so it'll play in a dvd player. can you suggest a faster way i can burn my projects for it takes me almost an hour to export. im going to make 28 slideshows for my kids in school. *=( if i need to do this process 28 times, i may not be able to finish it on time. please suggest a software or an alternative as to how i should do this... m more comfortable using imovie than iphoto. thanks and i hope to hear from someone soon *=j

Thank you QuickTimeKirk...used toast to burn project... my project was in .mov, i tried to play it a dvd player, it did play... will try again tomorrow using another dvd player just to be sure it'll will really work with dvd players. thank you again for your reply *=)

HT1386 Hi the question I have is. Can I put music from my IPad to my iPod?

Hi the question I have is. Can I put music from my IPad to my iPod?

Not directly no, you will need to sync it via your computer's iTunes. If they are iTunes purchases which are not yet on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to copy them over your computer via File > Transfer Purhcases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases if you have iTunes on your computer)

You don't. iOS 5.1.1 is the highest possible for the iPad 1.

How do I put videos on the iPad w/o synching with iTunes?

I just bought the iPad 2 from a friend of mine. It is "tethered" to his computer. Meaning it won't let me sync my iTunes videos and music to it w/o doing the erase & sync. I'm hesitant to do that just yet because I have already dialed in the settings I like, and he has some paid apps I don't want to get rid of.
My question is...
Can I put videos on the iPad without iTunes?
I've tried apps like Drop Box, but they don't let you download to your iPad. Just stream. and when I'm at work, I have no internet connection.
Thank you.

Unfortunately, if you want to make full use of this iPad, you really have no choice, but to do an erase and resync with your own iTunes/Apple ID account or create a new account of your own.
There is really no workaround. If you want to sync to your own iTunes library, purchase music,movies, books, and apps of your own via Apple's iTunes Store, you'll need to completely erase and resync this iPad. As it is, if you wish to purchase apps that aren't free, they'll end up being charged to your friend's Apple ID account. I do not think that'll be appreciated.
If you insisted on leaving the iPad in its current state. I was going to suggest a paid app called Photo Transfer App that also allows transfers of movies that might work for you, but because you're still linked to your friend's account this would not be advisable.
Plus, using this iPad with two different accounts (one on your computer and a different one on the iPad) you would end up purchasing this app twice to get the functionality you need. Again using your friend's account.
The paid apps on this iPad will always be linked to your friend's Apple ID account.
You really need to reinitialize (erase) and resync with your own iTunes and Apple ID account and purchase these on your own.
Sorry if this is not the answer you've been looking for.

You can use AirPlay to display your MacBook screen on the Apple TV, but that depends on your MacBook - About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion

If it came with an iTunes digital download code you can redeem that, otherwise this isn't a matter that can be discussed here. See section 2.8.2 of the Terms of Use.

I bought a used PowerMacPC G5. I can burn and read DVDs, but I can't read or burn CDs. The CDs are not even recognized. After the drive searches for a while, the CD is ejected without any error messages. The CDs work okay on my iMac.

I bought a used PowerMacPC G5. I can burn and read DVDs, but I can't read or burn CDs. The CDs are not even recognized. After the drive searches for a while, the CD is ejected without any error messages. The CDs work okay on my iMac.
I am running Mac OSX 10.4.11. According to the System profiler the CD/DVD drive is a "PioneerDVD-RWDVR-112D." When I compare the information under this heading, the only unusual difference from my iMac is that the G5 reads "Burn Support: Yes (Unsupported)." My iMac reads "Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)."
Under the System Preferences the options are set to "Ask what to do" when a blank CD or DVD is inserted. Music CD set to open iTunes, Picture CD set to open iPhoto, Video DVD set to open DVD player.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks, Jack
