How do I get my home movies and avi files to play on my ipad 3?

How do I get my home movies and avi files to play on my ipad 3?

1) Download a third party player on the iPad, such as avplayerhd or cinexplayer. Search app store for AVI and read some reviews.
2) Convert the files in a program such as handbrake, mpegstreamclip on the pc and import them.
3) Download air video from the app store, install the server software on the pc and stream away.
Take your pick.

  • How can I get an HD movie from iTunes store to play on original iPad

    I recently purchased an HD movie--Brave--from the iTunes store.  I'm trying to play on my original iPad (iPad 1), but iTunes refuses to synch it because it says it is an unsupported format.  The movie is in 1080p format.  I typically get both HD and SD formats when I purchase movies, but iTunes no longer downloads the SD version automatically when I purchase the HD version.  I attempted to get an SD version from the store, but it said I already purchased the movie and instructed me to check the downloads.  There is no SD download pending and a check for new downloads was fruitless.
    Can someone confirm that the original iPad is unable to play HD video?  I imagine it is the 1080p that's the problem.  Can anyone confirm that 720p would work?  Is there no longer a means to get both HD and SD when purchasing a movie from the iTunes store?  If there is, how?
    Thanks for your help.
    Jamie

    You can get the SD or 720p version by:
    Open iTunes 11
    Click iTunes in menu bar > select Preferences...
    Click on the Store tab
    Change When downloading High Definition videos, prefer dropdown to 720p > click OK
    Click on the iTunes Store button
    Click Purchased link
    Click Movies tab
    You should now see a download icon for the movies you already have 1080p version of.
    Click on this download icon to download the 720p version.
    This will put a 720p version in the same folder on your hard drive as the 1080p version.  If you have iTunes setup to play 1080p when available, it will play the 1080p version.  When you connect your iPad 1, it will sync the 720p version.
    Don't forget to change your preference back to 1080p so you can continue to get the higher quality version.

  • TS2972 I can get my music, movies and tv shows to play through my apple tv, but I cannot see my photo stream on my apple tv.  What can I do to get my photos to show up on the TV?

    I can get my music, movies and tv shows to play through my apple tv, but I cannot see my photo stream on my apple tv.  What can I do to get my photos to show up on the TV?
    I have a mac and wireless internet.

    Because you've got music and movies streaming to your Apple TV, I know you've authorized Home Sharing under the file menu of iTunes.  But under that same iTunes file menu you must also go to the "Home Sharing" pull-down and select "Choose Photos to Share With Apple TV". You can select All photos, or just specific albums. Maybe worth saying again that this is done from iTunes and not iPhoto.
    If you've already done this and still no photos on AppleTV, check to see that your photo file names (previously imported into iPhoto) have valid suffixes (such as photo.jpg).  Without that valid suffix, iPhoto on your Mac will show the photo just fine (courtesy of the hidden Type Code embedded in the photo file), but AppleTV will not.
    Good luck and let me know if either of these worked.

  • I am stuck in rentals in the videos app, how do i get to home movies screen?

    I can't find a way to switch between home movies and rentals in the videos app on my ipad mini.  It's making me crazy!

    Hello there, sleepykatisalreadytaken.
    Rentals should be visible from the "Choose a category" section displayed in the iPad User Guide here:
    Videos at a Glance - iPad User Guide
    http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad99cee74f
    Open the Videos app to watch movies, TV shows, and music videos. To watch video podcasts, install the free Podcasts app from the App Store—see Podcasts at a glance. To watch videos you record using Camera on iPad, open the Photos app.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • HT201317 How do I get all the photos and videos I already have on my ipad and iphone over to photo stream to bring up on my PC

    CAn you please tell me how I can get all the photos and video from my iPad and iPhone that aren't in photo stream so I can get them from my iCloud onto my PC please.

    If you don't physically have the phone then there is no way for you to get the photos or videos.
    Have you been backing up your phone?  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766  if so, you can restore that backup to your new phone and get all your contents back.
    did you fail to import pics to your computer as you would a digital camera? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

  • MOV and AVI Files - Rendering Every Clip In The Timeline

    This is just a quick query really. When I try and add certain .mov and .avi footage into final cut express 3.5, the timeline requires the clips to be rendered fully. It also requires a render every time you move the clip or add a transition etc.
    If for example I wanted to make a fan film using footage from another source, how would I go about this - it seems very time consuming considering every single shot needs to be fully rendered every time I move it / edit it.

    FCE is a resolution specific editing application. It edits DV or HD using the Apple Intermediate Codec. Anything else needs to be converted to one of these formats. It's usually best to convert your media to the correct format before bringing it into FCE.

  • How do I get a home movie onto my ipad?

    I have used iTunes to convert a home movie to a mp4a file. How do I get it onto my iPad? I have tried dragging it. Does not work.

    Fire up I photo on the Mac.  Plug the pad in.  ( make sure you are not automatically syncing to I tunes.  ). On the left pane in I photo the pad will show up as a device.  Click on it and it should show all new pictures on the pad.  Select your video and at the top, click import selected.   

  • I keeeep getting an error when I try to play the movie saying QT cant open or installl plug in how do I get all my movies that says this to play in QT?

    How do I get the movie to play when it's saying QT can't play because of files not support but they have the mov extension

    How do I get the movie to play when it's saying QT can't play because of files not support but they have the mov extension
    The MOV file extension simply refers to the file container. In this case, the MOV file container is the "generic" QT container that may contain any valid audio/video compression combination compatible/support on the system that created the file. For instance, if the movie was created on a system with FCP installed on it, that originator of the file may have used a compression codec not available on your system if you do not also have this application installed. The same holds for similar codecs like MPEG-2, DivX, XviD, WMV, etc. In some cases the codec may even be a legacy codec which will run in QT 7 but not the QT X player app.
    In short, your best approach is to determine what audio and vide codecs are involved and then see if they are supported on your system. You can normally do this by checking the Finder Info window for the file or opening it in an alternative media player that supports playback and checking that app's media info window. For instance, the VLC media player supplies its own codecs and therefore does not rely on your system's QT component configuration.

  • Most of the .mov and .AVI files doesn't play anymore with QT 7 or 10

    I'm running OS 10.7.5 and most of the .mov files that were generated with Quicktime 7 doesn't play anymore, except in VLC.
    I used QT7 because it can still crop and edit videos, instead of QT 10 that came with the system.
    QT7 has a also a very nice feature that allow to reset the image ratio, which is sometime very usefull.
    I shall say that videos came from a digital recorder I used to tape the TV and those files came as .AVI
    Anyway, overnight (probably after an update of iTunes or any part of the system) QT 7 nor 10 can play those files anymore !
    Each time I try to open a file with QT it says I need a codec, and leads to the DIVX download page, but installing this codec doesn't solve my problem.
    QT7 was a very fine software and worked until now.
    Why an update makes my system go backward ??!?
    I'm a huge fan of Apple, but that is not acceptable !!!
    It just makes me want to purchase on older mac and go back to 10.6 !!!
    Shame on you Apple !

    Indeed, a further search on the side lead me to this page :
    http://perian.org/
    and now it works again !
    I still don't get how an update could change the system like this.
    Anyway, thanks for the reply

  • How do I get the Home, Reload and Forward/Backward buttons grouped logically together, rather than splattered randomly across the top of the browser ?

    In Firefox 3, all the buttons are grouped together, in V4 they are now scattered across the top of the browser, aping IE7/8 - plus the "stop loading" button has gone walkabout - it would be useful to get that back, as well.

    You can open the Customize window to make it possible to change the position of those toolbar buttons.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"<br />
    * Drag the Home button from its current position at the right to the previous position at the left of the location bar.
    * Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position at the left side of the location bar.
    * Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    * Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.

  • How do I get my home page and bookmarks to my phone from my compter

    Same as above

    Hi Galeschaffer,
    It's dead simple! If you sign up for a Firefox Account, you can use Firefox Sync to automatically copy your bookmarks over. Here's an article on how it works:
    [[How do I set up Firefox Sync?]]
    Just follow the instructions the article. You might find it easiest to sign up for a Firefox Account on your PC and then log in to your account on your phone - but you can do it either way around.
    On Android, Firefox will automatically show "tiles" with your recently visited sites, instead of a homepage.
    Hope that helps!

  • How do I get a trash, spam and draft files to be a visible part of my in box set of files on the left hand side of the page

    On the left hand side of the gmail screen and under compose mail, there is an inbox item and some sub-files, including "Starred," "Important," "Chats," and "Sent Mail. But there isn't "drafts," "spam," or "trash." Nor when I seek to move an e-mail is there in the move-to drop down a way of moving files to important, drafts, trash or spam. Thus i can't file and I can't see what has been moved where. I don't know whether this is a function of version 9, but if so, I'd like to get the older version so I can manage my files.and view what's there.

  • How do I get PSE10 to import and rename files in order?

    When I place my CF card into the reader PSE opens and displays all the photos on the card the problem is they are out of order. I take volleyball photos and use the burst often The files are numbered properly by the camera but PSE seems to get them mixed up. When I import and renamer them PSE thakes them in the order they are shown and they are then renumbered out of order causind many shots to be out of order. I have never had this problem before. I have been using PSE 6 up thru 10 now and this is the first time I have had this happen. Last season I wasusing PSE9 and all my bursts sequences are in purfect order.
    Am I missing something in the settings?

    Hi,
    The problem I have is with the PSE Organizer "Photo Downloader". When I
    plug the CF card from my camera into the card reader on the computer the
    "downloader" opens up and shows thumbnails of the files on the card. At
    this point the files are out of order based on the file numbers applied
    by the camera. I.e.: one sequence looks like this-
    11,12,16,15,14,13,17,18; where 12 thru 16 were a burst. Another
    sequence- 121,120,125,124,122,123; all one burst. As you can see they
    are out of order.  I tried leaving the card in the camera and the same
    thing happens. If I view the photos in /on the camera they are in the
    right order. What has been happening is that I rename and number the
    files as I import them. When that happens the files get numbered in
    sequence as to how they are seen in the "downloader"....this means in
    the examples shown 16 would become 13; 15 becomes 14 ect. This ends up
    mixing up any sequence of shots.
    Once I have the RAW files imported I import them to Lightroom 4 to do
    most of my processing. Here if I choose to arrange by time created I can
    get them in the right order but because the files are rearranged into
    the correct order and since I renamed them on importing the file numbers
    are now out of order. After figuring out what the problem was I can now
    import the files to lightroom without renaming > arrange by time or file
    name> rename> and all seems to be OK. My question is I never had this
    problem before and it was very nice to be able to rename the files at
    import and be done with it.
    I haven't had time to check into it but one thing I'm wondering is is
    there a way to rename the files at import without changing the file
    number? Is there a way to insert the date and text while keeping the
    IMG_Number....i.e IMG001 becomes 2012 09 15_Volleyball_0001 keeping the
    original file number and only inserting a date/name? This would solve
    the whole problem as I could then arrange by file name and all would be
    well.
    Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
