  • HT1386 How do I transfer video from ipad to imac

    I have some videos that I have imported to my iPad through the camera kit, which is the only thing I have that will read the SD Card.
    I want to transfer the videos to my iMac but I cannot work out how to do it.  They are too big to email.  I don't want the send them to YouTube.
    Apple has sandboxed most of the useful fuctionality of the iPad to oblivion.  I cannot send them through dropbox.  There is no connection for photos to iCloud except by Photo Stream.  And I doubt that the Youtube community will find them entertaining (although who knows?  The weirdest stuff seems to fly on YouTube.) 
    I temporarily enabled photostream on the iPad and one of my iMacs, but it seems to work only with stuff taken after it is enabled.  I cannot imagine a circumstance that would lead me to use it - it smells like a Microsoft product - something that one brilliant but dateless techie cooked up on a lonely Friday night and the company has decided to roll it out because it is there....
    I have tried doing a Photos sync from iTunes with Include Videos selected, but no luck.
    Both the iMac and the iPad are on the latest versions of their respective OS.
    Any ideas?

    Just solved it.  Well, the Mrs did, anyway.
    Solution is that it is not done through iTunes - photos are downloaded from the iPad with iPhoto.  It has been so long since I did it (because mostly I take photos with my iPhone then email them - I do not use my iPhone for taking "art" photos - just snapshots of instantaneous interest.)
    I have been using this stuff for years and still it catches me out.  It just works, but not necessarily for everyone every time.
    So we can consider this problem solved.

    HOW DO I TRANSFER VIDEO FROM MY OLDER  PANASONIC  PV-L559 CAMCORDER TO MY APPLE IBOOK G4 LAPTOP?

    I'm not familiar with that camcorder. What kind of output port(s) does it have?
    I've downloaded the manual here:

    And can find no mention of any way to connect with a computer.
    I'll ask around and see if somebody knows more about it than I do.

    How do I transfer video from my iPad to my MacBook Pro?

    Hi MeSwolf,
    You can do it wirelessly with Dropbox. The Dropbox app has a very cool auto-upload process that will automatically upload photos and videos from the iPad Camera Roll to Dropbox.
    First sign up for a free Dropbox account from your computer.
    Then, download the free Dropbox app on your iPad.
    Log in to the Dropbox app on the iPad with your new account and click on the Photos icon in the lower left corner of the screen (second one from the left).
    Select "Enable Camera Upload" and "Only Wi-Fi." The upload process will begin for all existing photos and videos in the Camera Roll.
    From now on, all future photos and videos taken by the iPad will automatically upload to the Dropbox folder. You can then download your photos from Dropbox to your computer by going tohttp://www.dropbox.com, logging in to your account, and downloading the photos and videos.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I transfer video from my sony DCR-SR82 to macbook pro

    How do I transfer video from my sony DCR-SR82 to macbook pro. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks

    "It's vital to research your computer purchases before you make them ... especially when you spend so much money, you need to be sure it'll work with the devices that you already have."
    I agree with you...to a point. I knew my 13-inch aluminum had no firewire, but I had no idea Apple would leave me high and dry by creating a product that would not accept DV video by any means. That's like producing a computer without a headphone jack. It's unconscionable for a company that promotes easy video editing and creation as one of their primary selling points to put a product like this out there. I have iMovie and I can't even use it?? Who thought THAT was a good idea? I upgraded to Mac for a reason and I'm deeply disappointed.

  • How do I transfer videos from my laptop to my iPhone 5c

    How can I transfer videos from my laptop to my iPhone 5c

    This way should fix the issue about how to transfer photos from laptop to iPhone 4s.
    1. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
    2. In iTunes, select your device's icon in the Devices list on the left.
    3. Click the Photos tab.
    4. Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
        Note: Some versions of Photoshop Album and Photoshop Elements don't support collections. You can still use them to sync all your photos.
    5. If you want to sync all your photos, enable the option for "All photos, albums, events, and faces." If you want to sync photos from only some albums, events, or faces, enable the option for "Selected albums, events, and faces" and then select the albums you want. If syncing on a Mac with iPhoto version 6.0.6 or later, you may enable the option to "Include videos" to sync videos directly from iPhoto to your device. (Requires iOS 3.0 or later).
    6. Click Apply.

    how can i transfer videos from my Windows 7 laptop to iTunes then sync it to my iPod 4th Gen? im having a hard time transferring vampire diaries series videos to my ipod.. only some of them were transferred and it did that when i tried syncing photos to my ipod..

    You import them into your iTunes Move library and then sync them to your iPod
    iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    You may need a thrid-party progtam to convert them to a compatible formation.
    Do the non-syncing ones play in iTunes on the computer?
