I cannot load movies to my new iPad (iPad 3)

Hi there,
I downloaded a movie in my pc (windows 7). I'm having an iTunes version of 10.6.3. The movie format which i downloaded is .mkv. When i tried to add the file to my library, its not showing in the movie list. surprisingly its not giving me any error also.
Please suggest me how to do that since i want to play movie in my ipad.
i tried downloading a .mp4 format, its adding to the itunes, but not syncing to iPad. Its giving me an error saying that the movie cannot be added to iPad.
With best regards,
Sumesh

While the just-recommended HandBrake produces compatible videos, you might want to prefer "remuxing' the videos as it takes orders of magnitude less time and doesn't decrease the video quality.
You'll want to give a try to the MKV remuxers on Windows. If you have access to a Mac, read http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/tutorial-roundup-remuxing-mkv-videos-ios-frien dly-formats-%E2%80%93-part-ii
As far as the MP4 problem is concerned, its H.264 level must be decreased with H264 Level Editor by CoolSoft. Read http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/making-stock-videos-application-play-every-mp4 -files-possible

I cannot load more photos onto my iPad as I'm being told there is not enough storage. I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud so how can I now load more photos onto my iPad. Surely there is enough space! Do I need to delete previous photos?

I cannot load more photos onto my iPad even though I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud. As I am on holidays and taking loads of photos I thought a good plan was to load them onto my iPad and then regularly back them up to iCloud. If I do this, do I then delete those photos from the iPad that I have backed up to iCloud and if I delete them from the iPad are they gone forever or can I somehow get them back from iCloud? I'm only new at all of this so I hope someone can assist me. I'd hate to lose all of my photos(I know they are still on my memory stick) but I would like to have them safe and secure and able to retrieved whenever I wish.

You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
Tap iCloud.
Tap Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
In the Backups section, tap your device.
In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage.

Why does my downloaded movie say cannot load movie

Why does my downloaded movie stop 30 minutes in and says cannot load movie?

Probably because you don't have enough available storage space. How much do you have? Check at Settings>General>About>Available

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Do I have to have wifi when downloading a movie on my new iPad. It has cellular and wifi but I don't have wifi where I am at now.

Can I download a movie on my new iPad with just 3G I don't have wifi where I am?

You don't "need" Wifi, however unless your 3G is substantially fast and you have an unlimited data plan it will not be practical to try and download a movie through 3G.
Movies are really large files, 1.2 to 1.5GB in size double that for HD versions. So be prepared if you don't have an unlimited Data plan and a good connection to pay a lot and wait quite a while for the download.

TS3297 i cannot access itunes on my new ipad. Can anyone assist?

I cannot access itunes on my new ipad. Kindly someone assist?

Rather than a "bug" - it appears to be some bizarre issue with the Apple servers that has been going on for a few days now. Users have had a few different issues with the App Store and a couple of them seem to have been fixed, but now this issue has cropped in the last couple of days.
No matter what we call this - it is not a necessary procedure, it's just fluke thing that needs to be addressed by Apple. This is not normal protocol for downloading apps from the App Store.

HT204053 cannot sync calendar on my new ipad mini. my mac and macbook use a .me account for iCloud. How can I change this?

I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?

If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe. The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however. If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

How can I load photos on a new iPad for a customer?

Now this is something that I've done before. But iOS has gone through some changes since then, and now I can't remember what to do.
Basically, I have a new iPad which was purchased for a customer. I need to load some photos on the iPad for the customer, then give to to them to do whatever they're going to do with it. Trouble is, I seem to remember being able to do this through iPhoto in the past, but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore. Now it seems you have to go through iTunes, which means setting it up with my iTunes account, which I don't want to do.
So, my question is, what is the best way to load these photos onto the iPad so that when the client sets things up they won't lose the images. Can I just set things up as usual, then manually sign out of my iTunes account on the iPad?

I'd really suggest you not try to do this. An iPad can only be synched to a single computer, so if you sync the iPhotos on your system (and synching has always been done through iTunes), when your customer takes the iPad to his/her own computer and syncs, it will erase the content (i.e. photos) you put on the iPad.
There may be workarounds, but I'd strongly suggest you just let the customer sync the photos him/herself. That's going to be a lot less headache.
Regards.

Copying movies to the new iPad

Hi, I was ondering if someone could help me/offer advice. We take a DVD player for the kids, when we go on holiday, hgaving to take 10 DVDs or so. We also take the new iPad with us for the kids to play games & I was thinking its a shame we cant get the DVD's that we have purchased onto the ipad & just take that with us. So Im not after illegally downlaoding movies to the iPad....but is there any way that bought DVD's e.g Ice Age can be imported onto the iPad?
Many thanks
James

We can't help you with commercial DVDs like Ice Age. Converting the file format requires that you break the CSS encryption and we can't tell you how to do that.
The cheapest option would be to take a portable DVD player if you have one (You can pick one up for 100ish I think, haven't shopped for a long time), or if youwant them on the iPad, purchase copies from iTunes, or rent them. (Although you will need to pay attention and make sure the rental isn't a streaming service but a download service)
If any of your movies have digital copies you may be able to get those on a computer and into itunes and then sync'd.

Cannot load movie with subtitles and export in QuickTime 10 / Os X Lion

Since Os X Lion, when trying to load a movie (DivX) in QuickTime 10 at the same time that the related subtitles file (.srt) is in the same folder as the movie, QT 10 suggests to use QT 7. QT 10 cannot load the movie with subtitles (in Snow Leopard everything was OK). Q& 7 is useless too because it cannot export movies to another format.
Anybody has a solution for this? Thanks for your help!

I do this because Perian don't work with QT10 on Mac OS X Lion:
-Try to open .avi movie with QT 10;
-OS X ask you to open on QT 7;
-Donwload QT 7 and install it. It will be installed on "Utilities";
-Download Perian but don't install it;
-Mount Perian, and click "Show Package Contents"
-Go to "Contents"->"Resources"->"Components"->"CoreAudio" and copy to Desktop "A52Codec.zip" and unzip it;
-Go to"Contents"->"Resources"->"Components" and copy to Desktop "Perian.zip" and unzip it;
-Go to "Contents"->"Resources"->"Components"->"CoreAudio"->Quicktime" and copy to Desktop "AC3MovieImport.zip" and unzip it;
-Then copy all packages with ".component" extention to /Library/Quicktime/;
-Then you can run all movies on QT 7.
Or,
-Install MPlayerX;
Or,
-Install VLC;
Or,

I want to load movies in to my iPad through itune in my pc that runs window XP. First of all I am not able to add the movies to the itune ,leave aside sync to iPad .can some one suggest what is the simplest way to load movies in my iPad.

I have plenty of DVD which I load in my laptop and watch the movies while travel, however I am not able to do that in my iPad .
I would appreciate some one guide me the simplest way of loading the movies in to my iPad. I tried the conventional procedure of loading/copying in to itune then sync to the iPad to load all movies in it, but failed to do the first step( not able to load /copy in itune) leave aside the sync to iPad next.
Do I need to sellout some 20 odd $ to buy a conversion software that would help?
Is it that Apple trying to make money by not making this simplest of thing possible by the user.( ref. windows, every thing is possible with little IQ of the user).
If it is so , I would stop many of my friends to restrain from buying a device like this by spending some 1000$ ,rather look at a good Droid that is catching up so well.

If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that. If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar. Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it. If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.
