I can't find purchased movies downloaded to my ipad 2. where are they and how do I play them

I have purchased movies that I have downloaded to my macbook pro and manually added them to my iPad 2. They show as files when iPad is connected to the macbook pro using the sync cable. There is no app that appears to work to find them, and iTunes and the app store only retrieve 3rd party movie providers during a search, I know youneed iBooks to view a book, is there an "iMovies" for feature movie watching not home movie creation?

Look in the videos app for your movies on the iPad.

  • I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

    I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

    Did you download them direct to your IPad or to your computer. If so unless you have synced your iPad with your computer since you downloaded they are still on your Ipad unless you deleted them or if they were rentals the time ran out.
    To check on your iPad launch the iPod APP on your Ipad  if a movie listing does not show  then click on the iPad button under your library list column and it should then show your movies etc
    Or launch the Video App and look for them there
    if you have downloaded them on your computer they will show up in iTunes the cartoons i suspect will show under TV and the Movie under Movies.
    A rented item expires 30 days after you rent it or 24 hours after you begin playing it, whichever comes first. Expired rentals are deleted automatically. After you transfer a rental to your iPad etc, it is removed from your iTunes library.
    Outright puchases are obviously yours to keep.
    Hope this helps

    They will only be where you put them.  They do not magically appear in new places.
    Have you copied them from your old computer to your new one?

    Help  I synk with my computer last nightand did the upgrade  and now i cloud is on iphone but I have no contacts they went to icloud how do I get them back to phone

    Follow the instructions in this article, open the iPod in the My Computer window, and drag the episodes to the Recycle Bin. Music, videos, and podcasts placed onto the iPod outside of an iPod-specific file manager such as iTunes are not usable on the iPod.

  • I just updated my Firefox version to 3.6, but I can't find any detials in My Bookmarks now? Where are they?

    I just updated my Firefox version to 3.6, but I can't find any detials in My Bookmarks now? They are not in the Favorites folder which is in the local drive either.

    1. The version of Firefox that you posted here with looks like Firefox 2.0, based on the UserAgent string this forum read from the browser being used. Is that what you updated from? <br />
    ''See this to fix your UserAgent string - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser ''
    2. If you ever used a Firefox 3.0+ version in the last three years and then went back to the Firefox 2.0 version, the 3.6 version you now have is using your old bookmarks file from when you previously had a Firefox 3.0+ version in use.
    3. Firefox doesn't use the IE Favorites folder for storing bookmarks. Firefox bookmarks are stored in the Profile folder, in the file format appropriate to the version of Firefox being used. Firefox 2.0.0.x and earlier versions, it was the '''bookmarks.html''' file and in Firefox 3.0 and newer version, it is the '''places.sqlite''' file.
    4. What do you want to do as far as bookmarks go? <br />
    Import your IE Favorites into Firefox 3.6? <br />
    Or, restore the bookmarks that you were recently using in Firefox 2.0?

  • HT2729 I've synched my iPad to my PC, but I can't find the videos I put in iTunes. Where are they?

    Where are videos stored when you transfer them onto your iPad?

    Itunes on the ipad is only a link to the store for purchasing media, it is not for watching content. Use the video app for watching the video. 

  • Cannot find my calendar events older than one year. Where are they ad how do I get them back?

    I cannot find my old events on iCal. It seems it only goes back one year. How can I find them and recover my information and events going back further than that?

    Greetings,
    Sorry to hear about the missing data.
    If you don't see your events there are 2 possibilities:
    1.) There is something wrong with the calendar cache
    2.) The events have been deleted
    First go to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events.. -- see if this has been checked as this deletes events after a point in time you specify.  Even if this is not checked now, if it was ever checked in the past, that will delete events.
    To reset iCal's cache and settings in the hope this will bring the events back:
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal 1 at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
    If the events do not come back then the information you are looking for is truly not in iCal.  You will need to restore from a backup (like TimeMachine) from a point in time before the events in question went missing.
    If you do not maintain backups of your computer, start now.
    Depending on how long ago these events were deleted from iCal you can try using data recovery to bring the files back although as these are past events, you may find that just moving forward from here is simplier than going through the effort but that is of course up to you to decide.
    Here are a few examples of data recovery programs:

    http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?main_page=product_info&products _id=1
    You can contact a local Apple Authorized Provider to see if they offer data recovery services: http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
    There are many nationwide / worldwide data recovery companies out there.  Here are a few examples:

  • 6 months of iphoto pics now missing. Where are they and how can I get them back?

    Yesterday I was downloading some photos from my camera. When I finished I looked at my events and every photo and event from the last months were gone. The most recent download was preceded by pictures from last August and everything else was gone!
    I have been reading this discussion and I have tried a rebuild of the library = no success.
    I downloaded iPhoto Library Manager and I am in the midst of creating a rebuilt library, but something tells me that it is just rebuilding the library with missing photos again.
    Mac OSX version 10.6.8 and iPhoto 9.2.1

    yes, I found an iPhoto Library folder on the second drive that has a date of August 22 2011, which seems to be right, everything since is gone.
    So when I downloaded on Saturday i downloaded new pics into this old folder.
    Where is the other, the including recent 6 months iPhoto Library folder?
    I did not trash anything.

  • I compacted my folders in Thunderbird, now all my emails are gone. Where are they, and how can I retrieve them?

    When Thunderbird asked if I wanted to compact all files, thinking this would just make better use of the space, I agreed. Now my emails have disappeared. I tried "Repair Folder" but nothing has returned. Any idea where I can find my emails?

  • I lost my tool bar on top. I no longer can see the Bookmarks, Tools, or Help links. Where are they and how can I reset them? I had them at first but now I don't see them.

    I lost the tool bar on top. I can no longer see the Bookmarks, Tools, or Help links. I had them in when I began with your browser but now they're gone. How do I restore the default toolbar?

    * In Firefox 3.6 versions on Windows and Firefox 4 on Windows and Linux it's possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of a toolbar.
    * Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    * Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

  • HT3412 I recently moved all my photos from iphoto to Aperture. I had several iphoto books and cards in my project file. When everything was moved to Aperture I can't find any of the books or card projects. Are they gone or can they be restored?

    I recently moved all my photos from iphoto to Aperture. I had several iphoto books and cards in my project file. When everything was moved to Aperture I can't find any of the books or card projects. Are they gone or can they be restored?

    1 - without specifics I have no idea how to help
    2 - the question was "are you trying to use them in iPhoto? " - it sounds like you are - to do so you will have to export them from Aperature and import into iPhoto
    3 - for information on how to use them in Aperature then you need to ask about how to use Aperature in the Aperature forum as it does not involve iPhoto

    Then Rightclick the toolbar in Mail, and clcik Customize the toolbar.

  • I upgraded my iPhone 4 from iOS 3.3.5 to iOS 5.0 and lost all my photos on the camera roll. Where are they and can I  retrieve them?

    I upgraded my iOS 3.3.5 to 5.0 on my iPhone 4 and lost all photos on camera roll. Where are they and can they be recovered?

    Have you been using your phone as recommended?  If so, you've been importing photos in your camera roll onto your computer for safe keeping.  Just as you would with a standalone digital camera.  Your photos would then reside safely on your computer for archival. 
    While camera roll photos ARE part of the backup, not everything always goes smoothly as you've seen, which is why the recommendation to import photos as soon as possible to your computer.
    If you have a recent backup of your iPhone, you can restore and hopefully many of your photos will be on this backup.  Any photos or data added to your phone since this last backup are, of course, gone forever.

  • HT204370 I have changed my internal hard drive on my macbook pro. I have put old hard drive into a capsule and have this plugged into my laptop. I can't find the movies on my old hard drive now? Any idea how I can move them to iTunes again? cloud taking H

    I have just changed my internal Hard drive on my MacBook pro. I had recently downloaded some movies on iTunes which I want to put into my iTunes library on my new internal hard drive. I have put my old internal hard drive into an external capsule but when I open the icon of the hard drive from the desktop I can't find my movies.
    At the moment I have the new movies downloading again from the cloud but it is literally taking hours for even one movie to load.
    When I changed the internal hard drive I restored my info from my old external hard drive which hadn't been backed up in a month and hence does not have my latest movies...
    I am concerned that I might go over my internet usage limit (flatmate is refusing to change to unlimited package!!!!) by downloading all the movies again from the cloud never mind how long it is taking...
    Is there any way to restore all my info and media from the old internal Hard drive in the capsule as well as from the external hard drive?

    It means there is no bootable system on the drive. If you still have access to the old drive, then I suggest you boot from it then clone it to the new internal drive. Use OPTION boot to boot from the Recovery HD on the old drive:
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
         1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
             button.
         2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
         3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
         4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
             to the Destination entry field.
         5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
             the Source entry field.
         6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Source means the external old drive. Destination means the new internal drive.
