HT1296 Playing movies on the iPad

Just taken delivery of iPad 2. Connected and found tgecsyncing with MacBook pro easy. HOWEVER the reason for the ipadvis to let the children watch movies on the go. I've a few DVD's that have an associated digital copy included.
I've registered and downloaded the movie and it plays fine on the mac book but I can't get the movie on to the iPad. When I select the film in iTunes and select sync it won't sync.
It's driving me mad! I've read lots of forums and it seems a common problem.
Any suggestions??

Have a look at VLC Streamer. You can stream and save it to your iPad.

As the video is downloaded from iTunes it should be in the right format. It could be a DRM rights issue. Watch this video of how to watch DRM iTunes video on a wi-drive via Safari - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta6cCegKBqQ

I have an ipad 2 and just rented a movie. When I try to load the movie to the ipad it indicates that it was not copied to the ipad because it cannot be played on the ipad. How do I fix this?

I have the same problem on an original iPad.

I can not connect my I Pad to a Samsung TV. Does the following make any sense? Dear Phillip Baker, Thank you for contacting Samsung Electronics. We understand that you are not able to movies on the iPad on the TV. We are sorry to say that you can

Will the I Pad 2 connectr to a Samsung TV to play a movie from I Tunes. Samsung sent the following.
Dear Phillip,
Thank you for contacting Samsung Electronics.
We understand that you are not able to movies on the iPad on the TV. We are sorry to say that you can connect devices which are DLNA compatible and PC or laptops which are
installed with PC Share manager. If the iPad supports DLNA, you can connec it to the TV and play the files
supported by the TV. The TV supports following file video types : MKV, AVI, MP4, WMV, MPEG, MPG, ASF, 3GP, TS, TP, TRP. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.
Thank you.
Samsung Online Support.
Any help?

What method of connection are you trying to use? DLNA looks like a standard for sharing media between devices over your home network, but I'm fairly certain the iPad doesn't support this protocol. Apple sell adaptors to connect your iPad directly to TV using composite or HDMI connectors. I'd be surpsied if your TV won't support either of those.

I am afraid you cannot connect the external DVD player to the iPad. It won't work.

Yes ... with the right hardware.
This article describes AirPlay Mirroring, which will do what you want.

There may also be cable solutions. Check the Apple Store.

HT3209 If you buy a movie on the IPad in HD(720p) are you able to download in 1080p resolution? Or do you have to buy the 1080p or is there even such a thing?

If you buy a movie on the IPad in HD(720p) are you able to download in 1080p resolution? Or do you have to buy the 1080p or is there even such a thing?

As far as I can tell, yes. I purchased an HD movie on my old Apple TV 2 (720p) and just upgraded to the Apple TV 3 (1080p) and it displays 1080p on the info sheet and plays in that quality, so I have a feeling the same should go for you with your iPad.

Get movies onto the iPad/iTunes from a DVD

I'm getting ready for a trip and want to put some movies onto the iPad to watch when I don't have Internet connection.
Question #1 If I rent movies from iTunes, do they download so I can play them at a future date when I'm not Internet connected? (I understand that I have 30 days to start watching a film and then must finish within 24 hours.)
Question #2 Can I transfer movies from a DVD to iTunes to watch at a later date and how do I do that?
Thanks for your help.
Chris

#1: Yes, the movie downloads. Your understanding is correct: you have 30 days to being watching, and 24 hours to complete watching once you've started.
#2: Sorry, but if you're referring to commercial and hence copy-protected DVDs, breaking the copy protection, which would be necessary to copy the videos from the DVD and convert them, is illegal in the US (and other countries), so we're not allowed to discuss it here.
Regards.

When I connect my iPhone 5 to my laptop and iTunes, I can't play movies from the iPhone on my computer.Why is that? Can I do this or it's not possible with iPhone5? With my iPod it's no problem.

Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet.

I rented a movie in iTunes and connected my iPad to transfer the movie to the iPad. The rental section will not pop-up and I have confirmed the movie is not an HD movie. Any suggestions on what to do next?

I would ask iTunes Store support for help with this. You may never be able to get the movie to download on your own now.
Go here and then tap on Connecting and downloading, then tap on Movie Rentals. You can have someone contact you, you can chat online or you can get email support. I would opt for the phone call or online chat.

Syncing downloaded movies from itunes to ipad which then suddenly stops and will not finish the sync stating itunes could not copy "name of movie" to the ipad because the file could not be written. restored the ipad to factory settings, reinstalled itune

I have had to format my PC running windows 7, and reset my ipad 1 to factory settings, i then installed latest itunes on the PC authorised the PC and re downloaded several movies via itunes previous purchases, all was well until i tried to sync the ipad to the PC, only some of the movies synced onto the ipad, otheres stalled the sync stating itunes could not copy "name of movie" to the ipad because the file could not be written. I have to pull the plug on the ipad just to get itunes to unfreeze, but it still will not sync these movies. and one help

Hi
I was having the same issue with music and movies but it had been ok before. The sync would freeze on a random file and then i had to take out the USB cable to clear it. After trying all sorts of things i saw someone mentioning about Anti virus and firewalls. I am using McAfee so i disabled it as a test. After this i could sync music and movies without issue!!!!! So in my case the firewall/anti virus was causing a problem. McAfee updates itself a lot so I am guessing something has happened in a recent update that impacted iTunes.I am not sure if this kind of thing is also causing your problem but it sounds very familiar.
Hope this helps.

How can i do to upload my movies from the ipad to the i cloud?

How can i do to upload my movies from the ipad to the i cloud?

If these are videos taken with your iPad, you can only add them to iCloud by adding them to a shared stream, as discussed here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99.
If these were movies purchased from the iTunes store, they are already in iCloud and can be redownloaded again in many countries for free as long as the movie is still available and the studio allows it. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 and iTunes in the cloud availability by country here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085.
To be safe, import them to your iTunes library so you know you have them. To do this, connect your iPad to your computer, open iTuens and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Then you can sync them back to your iPad later if you ever need to.

Hello, I'm from Belgium and I just bought the iPad 2. I watched a lot of movies and I saw that it's possible to make your own movie with the iPad, but which app do you need to make movies. Greetings, Lars
