Edu DVD in computer iTunes but does not show up in iPad iTunes or iPad video. How do I make the DVD contents available on the iPad?

Educational DVD added successfully to computer iTunes but does not show up in iPad iTunes or iPad video. How do I make the DVD contents available on the iPad?

Thanks! For whatever bizarre reason for which I have no answer - I sync'd my iPad to my MBP the old fashion way (not iCloud) and the movie showed up just fine. It is Nikon camera 'how to' video. I like to watch them for a better indepth discovery of what the camera can do. The only weird thing about the hard wire sync is that it was placed in a catagory "home movies" which was never there before...actually it showed up in two places "home movies" and TV shows.
So, thanks anyway! Pretty cat!

Laptop brokre, managed to recover files onto harddrive, how do i transfer the music files into my library on a new computer, Laptop brokre, managed to recover files onto harddrive, how do i transfer the music files into my library on a new computer

ok so to cut a long story short my itunes account was on a laptop that broke, managed to get photo and music file backed up onto hard drive.
Can i just log into my itunes account on a new pc to sync andbackup my iphone? or do i need to transfer my music file into the account?
Really need some help!
I have an iphone, Ipod and the account on the old laptop.

"I don't have the old computer. It overheated and literally melteddown!"
This is why it has alwasy been very basic to always maintain a backup copy.
Did you fail to do this?
"I have been talked through a back up process of the itouch music on to the new laptop before, but can't remember how to do it. Any ideas on this process."
Again.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod. the only exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
You may be able to buy a 3rd party program to get non-itunes purchased music from the ipod.

How do I transfer the music content on my old IPOD (click wheel) to Itunes in my new computer for subsequent transfer to a new IPOD

How do I transfer music on my old IPOD( click wheel) to Itunes on my new computer(Windows 8) for further transfer to a new IPOD nano

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. And here is a guide about how to transfer iPod music. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

My computer crashed and I saved my songs to a folder. now that I have new comp with itunes how do I transfer the songs back into itunes while keeping the titles in tact? When they transferred back in only about half of them had the titles listed.

I want to transfer my songs from the old iTunes that I saved toi the new iTunes on my computer from a file I saved and keep the song titles in tact. how do I do this.?

It is probably not wise to leave your e-mail and phone number on a public forum.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
You purchase one download only.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

Import DVD back into iMove

I burned an iMovie slideshow in toast onto a DVD.
Apple then replaced my HD.
I lost the project on my HD,and a lot more stuff.
How can I import the project back into iMove from the DVD?
I keep geting a error message. When I try.

You need to use an application that will convert MPEG 2 video to .mov or DV. There are many that do this including Toast 7, Cinematize, MPEG Streamclip or QuickTime Pro with the Quicktime MPEG 2 Component, DVDxDV and many others.

How do I transfer my DVD into Ipod. Please mention program and the way to d

Ipod 80 GB there is lots of room for my DVD's but when I try to draw the video and audio file from the DVD to itunes, as described in the Itunes maual, it does not work. I have Shrink 3.2 on my computer and when I want to copy a DVD I use it. I think it has something to do with converting the DVD into another type.
But how. I have called the help disk, but the man did not want to help me??
Windows XP

i was misled by the computer store to buy an "offfical" IPOD DVD converter program for my existing DVD library - it's not able to read anything copyrighted or not... so upsetting - now i finally have the chance to visit apple.com and seeing all the problems that everyone is having with this "media" deivice, i'm begining to wonder if a visit back to the computer store is needed to just return the IPOD and end the nightmare... it's easier to just travel w/ my 13"laptop then to be transfering, converting, buying accessories & having to charge the dumb thing every few songs!
Apple should have thought of a setting or programing issue that when it detects the copyright, it would allow you to only transfer the DVD movie onto the IPOD without nessisarlily downloading or ripping the DVD onto the computer. If you already have the disk, why would you really need to make another copy on the computer?
Honestly, i don't mind having to buy new movies over their site but to have an existing DVD collection not avalible to me, some of which they don't even sell anymore (but i still love to watch), is pushing me over the edge and back to the store!

A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons
All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins
Contextual Menu Items
Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions
Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Transferring files between two computers using FireWire.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:
MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)- What to do if migration is unsuccessful;
MacBook Air- Migration Tips and Tricks;
MacBook Air- Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and wireless 802.11n networks.
Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

How do you transfer Albums & their contents from Elements 11 into a later edition Elements 13. Thanks

How do you transfer Albums & their contents from Elements 11 into a later edition Elements 13. Thanks

Albums are lists which are stored into catalogs. They don't contain the images, they just keep a pointer to where the pictures are stored in your computer and the order to display them.
So your problem is with catalogs, not with albums.
If you have missed the message to convert the old current catalog at installation time, that's not a problem. You can use the menu File in the organizer, select 'Manage catalogs' which will show a 'convert' button. That is also necessary if you have more than one catalog.
The catalog is not a single file, it's a folder containing the main database, catalog.pse13b as well as other files and subfolders. The location of your current catalog can be found with the menu Help/System Info of the organizer. If you want to use another catalog, the organizer will search for other catalogs and provide a list to choose from.
