How do I transfer converted movies from PC itunes to ipad?

I recently got an ipad mini to take traveling. I am attempting to put movies  on it so my kids can watch on road trips. I downloaded DVD converting software on my PC to convert their movies from DVD to files compatible with itunes. I wasn't sure which format to use so I converted two movies to two different formats, an MPEG and whatever format goes with itunes. Neither format will show up on the ipad. When I try to transfer from itunes, it will give the ipad blank files. When I try to transfer the MPEG, it tells me my ipad is not connected. My kids would really like to have some movies to watch on our 10 hour Christmas road trip....

Copy movies to a SanDisk flash drive and stream it to your iPad.
Advantage: No space used on iPad; can stream to multiple iPad.
Note: Breaking DVD code may be illegal in certain countries

  • I recently brought a new HP laptop and I downloaded the newly updated iTunes on it; however I have an old Aver laptop with iTunes version 10.7 on it or the one before iTunes 11 came out. How can I transfer my movies from the old version to the new one?

    I recently brought a new HP laptop and downloaded iTunes 11 on it. My old laptop which is a Acer has iTunes version 10.7, I believe. I wanted to know, How can I transfer 18 movies from the old iTunes onto my new Itunes? It only shows the most recent two movies when I look at the purchases in my account. I had a lot of moves downloaded last year from the old version and would like some assistance on how to get all those movies into my iTunes 11 library. Thank you.

    you should starting with copying the iTunes folder from your old laptop to the new one.
    the iTunes folder is in your user profile Music folder.
    it should go to the same location on the new laptop.
    Provided that you have your media, music and movies in the default location, and you sign in to your apple ID and authorize your new computer (all in iTunes)
    you should have all intact.
    Post if any problems.

    how do i transfer a movie from my old hp desktop to a macbook pro?
    On my old computer I had two movies: Fight Club and Garden State and I'd really like to watch them on my new MacBook Pro! But I dont know how to transfer them onto my new laptop help?!

    Right-click them in iTunes, locate the files, move them as you would any other, and drag them into the open iTunes window on the MacBook Pro. iTunes Store rentals can only be moved through an iPod or similar device.

    Thanks for that, it was really helpful.
    Glad to hear that worked for you. While formatting an external drive with a Mac format is best if it will be used only with a Mac, if the files on the drive have to be accessible to a PC also, it's possible to format it in an exFAT format, which both the Mac and a PC can read from and write to. However, if you do that, do the actual formatting while the external is connected to the PC.

  • How can i transfer rental movies from my Ipad to my iTunes library before updating

    how can i transfer rental movies from my Ipad to my iTunes library before updating ?

    According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
    You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie or TV show on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
    So I assume that you cannot use File > Transfer Purchases to copy them to your computer (though there is no harm in trying)

  • HT201269 How do I transfer a movie from an iPad mini to a Seagate external drive?

    How do I transfer a movie from an iPad mini to a Seagate external drive?  Movie is now in iTunes store.  Purchased a new Seagate external drive fo xmas and is recognized by the iPad mini.  Tried by moving a small video and worked.  Now I would like to move two movies that are in iTunes store that were purchased to the external drive to free up space and be able to watch in potential upcoming new Apple Air.  Have checked several pages on-line and having no success finding the information to enable me to do this.  Some some information about moving the movie to iCloud, but did not seem to work.

    You don't need to do this. 
    Any purchases you make from the iTunes store are yours for download anytime on any device with your Apple ID used to purchase that media.  It could also be streamed from the cloud.  
    Just delete the movies from the iPad if you need the space.
    When you get a new iPad, open the iTunes store, go to purchases, and sign in.  Then you can download anything you bought with your ID in the past - Free, you already own it.

  • How do I transfer rental movies from my IPAD to my Laptop?

    How do I transfer rental movies from my IPAD to my MAC?

    You can't.
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • How do I delete a movie from the iTunes-cloud?

    How do I delete a movie from the iTunes-cloud? I don't want to hide it I want to delete it even if it means I can't download it again..

    Oh sure you can delete it from the computer. I thought that you wanted to permanently delete it so that you can never access it again. In fact, in some countries, you can delete movies and then download that again at no charge as long as you use the same Apple ID.
    Launch iTunes on your computer and click on the movies tab under the Library heading, find the movie and right click on it and select Delete.

  • How do I transfer one playlist from my itunes library to my ipod?

    How do I transfer one playlist from my itunes library to my ipod. I do not want to sync my whole library music. I tried to set to *manually managing music* and drag the playlist. Doesn't work. If I try to sync *selected playlists* it wants to delete all the other music that I have on my ipod.
    Any suggestions?

    Ha, it worked. Thank you anyways!
