HT204370 how do I download a movie I purchased from my laptop to my ipad?

I purchased a movie on my lnew aptop. It automatically downloaded to my iphone but not to my ipad. How do I download it to my ipad?

You might be able to redownload it directly on your iPad via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it (films can't be redownloaded in all countries).
Or you can connect the iPad to your laptop and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad.
If that isn't the computer that the iPad is synced to then you may also find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

TS1567 I have an old ipod nano. How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod?

How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod nano...I believe it is a 2nd generation? I plug it into my computer, but nothing happens!!!

Hello shay82578,
It sounds like you are trying to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano. I found some articles with steps to sync music to your iPod:
If you are using iTunes 11, you will want to follow the steps in this article:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
If you are using an earlier version of iTunes, you can follow the steps in this article:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
To be able to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano, the music will need to be on the computer rather than streaming from iTunes in the Cloud. You can find the steps to download your purchased music to your computer's hard drive under the section titled, "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer" in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

How can I watch a movie I purchased ?

If you purchased and downloaded it on your computer's iTunes then it should be in the Movies section of your iTunes library and you should be able to play it from there. If you downloaded it on an iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch then it should be in the Videos app on that device - and if it's not a rental you can copy it to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases so that you take a backup of it.

How do i download music that i purchased from my ipod to my laptop?

...

If the music is still on the iPod, then when connected to your computer's iTunes have you tried doing File > Transfer Purchases to see if that copies them over ?
If the music is no longer on the iPod, then if you are in US then you should be able to re-download music purchases from iTunes as long as they are still available in the store and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to purchase the music : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

How do I transfer an App store purchase from my MacBook to my iPad-WITHOUT an Internet connection?

I live on a boat in an anchorage. My iPad won't connect to the wifi in the anchorage; my MacBook Pro, with an external radio, will make the connection (sometimes). I want to purchase a couple of apps from the App Store and download them to my computer. I won't be able to connect the iPad to the Internet--ever--but I can of course connect it via USB to the MacBook Pro. Can I
- purchase the apps from the App store
- download the apps to my MacBook Pro
- disconnect the MacBook from the Internet (it costs about $1 per minute for my connection)
- sync the iPad to the MacBook
- transfer the newly purchased apps from the computer to the iPad
Just a reminder--I _can't_ connect the iPad, ever, to the Internet. The signal just won't reach that far. I don't want to take either the computer or the iPad on a (wet) dinghy ride to try to get close enough to the wifi hotspot for the iPad to connect (maybe). Both the iPad and the MacBook Pro are registered to the same ITunes account, but there isn't any way to connect the iPad to iTunes central for their servers to confirm this--only the MacBook Pro can be connected.
I also don't want to erase any info on the iPad--I have waypoints, navigation info, documents, etc., stored in various apps. Do I have to sync first to avoid losing this data? (Hope it's not cloudy tomorrow and those solar panels will be pulling some amps!)
Thanks,
Sue
PS--I have OS 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.0.1 on the MacBook; iOS 6.0.1 on the iPad.

Yes, you should be able to buy/download apps from the iTunes app store on your Mac and then sync them to the iPad - neither the iPad nor the Mac should need to be connected to the internet to sync the apps over to the iPad
If the iPad hasn't been synced to that computer before then you may find this page useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

HT1727 how do i download a movie I rented on my PC to my ipad

I rented movies from Itunes. I can see them in my apple account, but can't seem to find where I can download them to my ipad...even after syncing!

With your iPod connected ...
Click on the iPod icon at the top left of the iTunes screen
Click on Music
Check the Sync Music box
Pick the Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres option
Select the playlist(s) you want to add to your iPod
Then click Apply.

How do I download an album I purchased from itunes to my ipod?

I bought an album from iTunes that I want to sync or download to my iPod. When I looked for directions on how to do this, it told me to go into iTunes, click on Music, and then click on Sync. But when I click on Music on the lefthand side, it is only a choice between Music, Videos, etc...Please, I know the answer is obvious, but I cannot figure out how to do it!

1) Plug in your iPod.
2) Wait for an 'iPod' button to appear at the top right corner of iTunes.
3) Open that.
4) Go to the 'Music' tab.
5) Sync music.
WARNING: This WILL delete all your music you had on your iPod prior to this.
To add songs without syncing:
1) Create an iTunes playlist with the songs you wish to add.
2) Repeat steps 1 - 3 above.
3) Go to the 'On this iPod' tab.
4) Select your playlist you just made on the bar at the bottom of the list beside the 'Autofill from...' prompt.
5) Press 'Autofill'.

Ho do I transfer movies and pictures from my Laptop to my iPad?

Thanks for the help.

You didn't say if you had the iPad 1 or 2 or what iOS version your running. The syncing process is the same for either iPad and any iOS version. Download this user guild/ manual on how to sync the iPad, pages 23-28.

As a new iPad user how do I transfer my email contacts list from my PCM to my ipad

How do I transfer my email contacts list from a laptop to my iPad?

Hi - Thanks for your response. I have tried to find the answer in the manual, but cannot locate the exact solution.
Do I have to sync with iTunes? Does the iPhone just learn the addresses as I use it for email? I'm confused because the "My Contacts" list that was transferred using VZ Contact Transfer is for cell phone numbers, not email addresses. But on my MacBook Pro I have "Address Book" with email addresses - that's what I want to transfer. I'm a beginner with the iPhone - had a little basic flip-top LG for years. What a difference!!

How do I download a movie to my iphone 3G? When I click 'rent' in itunes, I get a message that there is not enough available local storage, but I can manage storage on my device in 'Settings'. I have activated icloud, but don't know how to change my storage so that I can rent and watch the movie on my phone. thanks for any help you can give.

I always do my Rentals with the itunes program on the computer.
Make rental from itunes store. It will show in movies under library, DO NOT click to play it. Plug in the device to the computer. Click the name of the device on left. Click on movies. There is an option to copy to the device. Sync. obviously you still need space on ipad to put rental but you can have it take computers hard drive space until you need it.
