HT2729 iPad storage: moving movies from iPad to iCloud

I'm trying to purchase a movie from iTunes but I get a message that my storage is full on my ipad.  I have over 10GB on iCloud available, how do I move videos from my iPad to iCloud so ill have addionsl room to purchase more movies?

You don't have to move things to the cloud. If you delete the movie, you will be able to download it again for free. You are confusing backing up the iPad to iCloud with storage in iCloud. iCloud is for backups, not for storage like you would use an external drive or a thumb drive for.
You live in Australia, so as long as the movie is still in the iTunes Store, you can safely delete it and download it again for free whenever you want to watch it again.
One of the caveats of the PC free iOS devices is that while it isn't absolutely necessary to have a computer in order to use these devices, you do not get all of the fail safe features without having a computer where you can transfer content to be stored and it won't matter if the movie is pulled from the store in the future.As long as you have a computer running iTunes, you can transfer all of your paid content to the computer and never have to worry about the content being pulled from the stores.
This will show you what you can download again for free in your country,
iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability
You can delete movies by tapping the edit button in the upper right corner of the videos app and the X to delete will appear on the movie icon.

  • Moving movies from computer to Apple TV

    I'm trying to move movies from my Mac mini to my 1st generation Apple TV.  How do I do that?

    You need to set your library up as a primary library, have you done that. See This.

  • HT204053 Can't move from MobileMe to iCloud

    When I select iCloud in System Preferences, the only option I am given is to move to iCloud. When I select that option, it takes me to a webpage saying mobile me is closed with a link to iCloud.com. When I go there and log in with my MobileMe account, it says your Apple ID must be used to set up iCloud on an iOS or OS X device before you can use iCloud.com. I click on the learn more button and it bring me to the apple webpage about setting up iCloud which brings me full circle to selecting iCloud in System Preferences. Additionally, when I go to the apple ID webpage to manage my account, my .me apple ID is there with all my information still intact. Any suggestions.

    After posting this I came up with a possible solution but I am waiting for some additional input before I try this. There is probably a preference file somewhere I can delete and then the iCloud system preference will no longer direct me to move from Mobile Me to iCloud. Then I will get the same screen that is shown on the apple website instructions, which will ask me to log in, or create an Apple ID. Presumably, that will allow me to enter the old Mobile Me information and it will be reactivated as an iCloud account.

  • 'Move from MobileMe to iCloud' link does not seem to work

    Trying to migrate to iCloud from new MBP (not mine but I have an account on it which works fine and syncs with my iphone and older macs) running Lion but when I click the link on me.com it simply opens a new window at me.com with the same page and link showing. Clicking this link does the same thing.
    The reason for me using the account on my partners MBP is because I do not want to upgrade my old Mac as I still use Rosetta.
    Any ideas? Am I being stupid? Has Apple disabled or blocked migration to iCloud?
    From a very early Mac user.

    Not sure how to do that but when i go into system preferences it brings up the you must move from mobile me  move to icloud screen and then I go through all the steps and get the same result> Hope this is clear

  • Why can't I move from Mobileme to iCloud after it asks if all my devices are ready and I say yes?

    Why is there not  a continue button when moving from MobileMe to iCloud after it asks me if all my devices are ready for it?

    Are they ?

  • After I delete emails, they return (recent move from MobileMe to iCloud)

    I recently moved from mobileme to icloud without difficulity. However, I've noticed after I read and delete emails, they return. I've check preferences and have verified the "store deleted messages on the server box" is unchecked as it should be.
    Is anyone else having this problem/do you know how to fix it?

    Well, unfortunately I don't have a single solution.
    However, my apple mail account seems to have "fixed itself". I had already deleted the icloud account in apple mail preferences and set it up again (twice), but that was not the fix because it continued to save all deleted emails in the inbox.
    Almost two days later I woke up one morning and started deleting emails thinking it wasn't going to work and to my supprise it did.
    All I can say is if this is the only problems us three are have for the moment we've gotten off pretty easy. Just give it a little while longer and hopefully it will fix itself.
    I appologize for not being much more help.

  • TS4003 Move from MobileMe to iCloud Error

    Anyone have an idea on how to cure the error message when moving from MobileMed to iCloud?

    What error message. Some users have found they need to log out of mobile me before migrating.

  • How do I move from MobileMe to iCloud on a macbook??

    I already went through the "move your mobileme account to iCloud" procedure on my macbook several times but still cannot access the iCloud settings on my mac - each time I open iCloud I am asked to first move my mobileme account iCloud??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If I recall correctly, I logged out of my MM account on my second installation before logging into iCloud, after which I logged back into MM and it told me mail, calendars etc were disabled because of iCloud, but still allowed me access to my iDisk etc.

  • Moving movie from apple tv to mac & iPad

  • Moving movies from old iphone to new computer

    My old pc has died and I havew purchased new one and in process of synching my iphone up to it.
    My iphone has about 25 home movies on it (not taken with iphone) that were synched up to old computer that I no longer have access to.
    These movies appear in itunes in under films when i explore iphone - how do i get these movies copied on to my new computer as there does not seem to be a copy option?
    I have music in itunes on new computer and have transferred purchases/apps etc and contacts backed up but worried that i will lose these movies if i proceed to sync...
    Help would be much appreciated....

    With a Mac, you'd connect the iPhone to the Mac using the USB cable and then launch iPhoto or whatever other photo/movie application you like, and then import the videos from the phone. You should be able to do the same with your PC; use whatever video importer you like, it should treat the iPhone like any other camera.
    You can also use this iOS app, but it will only work pictures and with fairly short videos.

  • Moving movies from iTunes to iPod (6th gen 160gb classic)

    Ok, so recently I've been having trouble with the transfer of my movies to my iPod (I have about 40 movies/TV shows on it already that I've never had trouble with)
    Ex: I have a few episodes of Boy Meets World(not purchased from the iTunes store, but all of them play perfectly fine in iTunes). I put them into a new playlist, selected them all, and dragged the playlist onto my iPod. The issue is that only SOME episodes transfer and there aren't any error messages or anything, they just don't go on my iPod. **I also tried adding them one by one and it still doesn't work.
    I have PLENTY of room left on my iPod for the episodes, they just won't transfer and I don't know why.
    Is it my iTunes (meaning I should probably re-install it), or is it my iPod?

    is your iTunes set to sync all content to iPod or only sync checked items?
    Do you get any error messages stating that the video cannot be played on your device?

  • HT4859 Moving movies from Cloud to Laptop

    I downloaded movies and TV shows to my laptop. Now I cannot access those shows because everything has been transferred to the Cloud Storage (without my prompting or opting for it). How do I get those items back on to my laptop's hard drive so that I may watch them (I have limited access to wi-fi most of the year)? Do I have go through the tedious process of downloading them all over again?  Thanks.

    You need to set your library up as a primary library, have you done that. See This.

  • Moving movies from podcast to movies in itunes

    I got bunch of movie trailers in podcast, and i tried to move them to movies but its not possible, it keeps getting back in podcast.
    anyone knows how i can do this thing???

    I agree with everyone that this is now awkward, but if you double-click a screen page to make it bigger, you can click and drag the icon you want to move out of there to another page. Once you mouse over another page, that page will enlarge and allow you to drop it on there. If the page is not visible (as someone mentioned earlier), you can hold the clicked icon toward the bottom of the area with the screens - and not on a page - and it will scroll. Once you see the page you want, you can drop it on there.
    Obviously it was not intuitive to me or else I would not have stumbled upon this discussion! Thanks everyone for your advice and help!

  • Will I loose all my Mail signatures when i move from MobileMe to iCloud?

    With Mobileme ending, I am forced to move to iCloud.
    Looking at the conversion notes, I saw a warning that Mial Signatures will no longer be available in iCoud?
    This puzzles me. Can someone clarify what this means.
    I currently use many signatures in Mail (on my Mac) which I have created and I do not want to loose the ability touse those signatures.
    Do all these signatures disappear in iCloud, or am I simply misunderstading the warning.
    Again, my question is specific signatures in Mail on my iMac (not on my iPad).
    Thanks for any help.

    If your signatures are associated with mail accounts other than the mobile me account, they will remain after migrating to iCloud. If you have any signatures associated only with the mobile me account, copy them to All Accounts, to save them.
