How do I download information from a dvd onto my computer?

I have a powerbook which i am learning to use at the moment and am trying to download information from a dvd onto my hardrive. It is an educational dvd without copyright produced by our university. i have tried to drag it onto the hard drive like you would with windows but this isn't working. I have also tried to create another dvd using idvd but this isn't working either, can anyone help me? Thank you

  • How do you download music from your iphone onto your computer ?

    need full details for a macbook air !

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

    how do i download information from my iphone 4s to my computer

    What sort of information ? You can copy purchases from iTunes to you computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For documents/files in apps then it will depend upon what the apps that they are in support e.g. transfer via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc. Or you do mean something else ?

    How do you download information from the cloud?  I just purchased a new phone?

    What information are you referring to?  You may mean restoring an iCloud backup from a previous device.  Or you may mean adding iCloud calendars, contacts, etc. to your iPhone.
    In the former case (restoring a backup), the setup assistant should walk you through that process.
    In the latter case (adding contacts, etc.), simply set up your iPhone as an iCloud device in Settings > iCloud.

  • How do I download videos from my ipod onto itunes

    how do i download videos from my ipod onto itunes?

    If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    SharePod is also freeware.

  • How can i download voicemail from my iphone to my computer

    How can i download voicemails from my iphone 5 to computer

    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Have you failed to do this?

  • How do I download content from a webpage onto a word document?

    I need to download content from a webpage onto a word document so  I can submit an assignment

    If you phrase  your question in something specific,
    I am using Pages and want to embed a photo into an article I am writing.
    I think different browsers save photos just fine but you would want to Save As and have the browser Ask with each save or download where it was to go, otherwise navigate to the default download folder and move it to a more suitable location or just point to it in Pages.
    I think this should go in forum for Pages if that is the app you use.
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/iwork/pages
    It might even be possible to do all this on an iPad of course.

  • I am new to Mac Pro but am purchasing one online.  can anyone tell me how to get the information from my Toshiba onto the Mac.  there are no stores in the state I live in.  Do I need to find a location and will they do a transfer from my I Tunes etc?

    I am new to Mac Pro and am purchasing one online  tonight.  Can anyone tell me how to get my information - Itunes, photos, and videos transferred onto the Mac from my Toshiba.  the state I live in doesn't have an Apple store but I could take it to Minneapolis when I go.  Any ideas where to begin?

    You might profit from a visit to a Minneapolis Apple store. With a brand new Mac, I think they will be most helpful - not just with transferring files, but with other advice as well. And I strongly recommend you invest in a back up drive. The Apple folk can help with that as well.

    You sync them to a supported application on the computer. Depending on your computer platform, that could be Address Book, Windows Contacts, Outlook, etc. They are transferred through the sync process.

  • How to get slideshow pictures from a DVD onto Mac

    Hi
    I am not sure if I am in the right forum, however I need help with transferring pictures from a dvd slideshow onto my mac iPhoto.
    When I see the files on the dvd, they do not seem to want to open as pictures, they are ifo, bup & vob files.
    The DVD would have been created on Pinnacle, but as I now have a Mac, I want them to be included with my other photos.
    Any help would be appreciated (please use simple terms as I have limited knowledge of how to do things)
    Thank you

    they are ifo, bup & vob files.
    Those are constituent parts of an mpeg2 video file. Doubtful if you can 'reverse engineer' those to single photo files, so I would suggest you take screen shots instead.

  • How do I download podcasts from my iPad to my computer?

    Hi there,
    I have a large collection of podcasts saved on my iPad and I would like to move them from my podcasts section on my iPad to my computer (windows 7 PC). Is this possible, and if so, how would I go about doing this?
    Thanks

    You can't do it directly from the iPad to iPod, you will either need to download it from the store on the iPod or sync it via your computer's iTunes
