I want to add cd movies to iTunes but I have a read only CD

I have some movies on CD that I bought.  I want to put them in iTunes and then place a few on my iPad to watch while I travel on the airlines.  But after getting the info on the CD it says it's read only.  I have done this before by dragging the movie file to iTunes but now it won't work.  Am I doing something wrong or this the movie industry trying to protect their copy rights?  Anyhow it would be nice to be able to do this since it seems mac power supplies don't work on Korean Air.

It is illegal to RIP commercial DVDs and this cannot be discussed in these forums.

This has never been possible (dragging a movie from a regular DVD movie to iTunes).

    PLEASE HELP ME!!!

    Hook your iPad into your computer and open iTunes. GIve it a couple of minutes to get going, then click on the name of your device, then the main summary page. In the middle you'll see a software update button/area. Click on check on updates and update and follow the prompts.
    it SHOULDN"T redownload but if you've already got it should just install.
    I'd suggest that you first do a complete sync before you update, that way you have a good backup to restore your device from if the upgrade doesn't go perfect.

  • I want to buy a movie on itunes, but I can only rent it. What does that mean?

    There is this movie that I really need to have on my ipod, but for some reason the only option that is available is to rent the movie. What does that mean? Will I ever be able to buy the movie?

    If you still have problem, call Apple to help reset your Security Question.

  • Is there a way to stream movies or mirror them from my iphone onto my ipad screen? My iPad memory is too small to download the movies from iTunes but I have them downloaded on my iphone.

    My ipad is only 16gb and just about full but my iphone is 64gb and has plenty of space. I have bought movies on iTunes and have been watching them on my iphone, but this seems a bit silly as I have an ipad with a larger screen. Is there a way to mirror or stream the movies from my iphone to my ipad?

    Thx - the videos are on my Ipad - that is the problem - they are taking up all the storage and there is no room for anything else. Is there any place I can store them so that I can access them from time to time, but not have they use up all the space on the IPad? Sounds like the cloud is out...

    Hate to tell you but it most certainly did have "Add File To Library" as recently as the iTunes for Mac version just prior to 11.0.2. 
    No need to "hate to tell me" but this is incorrect.
    iTunes for Mac has always only had Add to library....
    Add file to library and Add folder to library are in iTunes for Windows.
    Here is iTunes 11.0.1.
    Here is iTunes 10.7...
    My closest Genius Bar (thanks Katie) confirms "Add To Library" will sequentially add everything in the folder you specify to iTunes - no prompt to select individual movies.
    Correct.
    You need to select the individual movie then click Open, same as always.

  • Had 3G, moved to 3GS.  Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem.  When I want to add songs, I get itunes message that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything.  How can I add music?

    Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me.  Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

  • HT1386 I am re-building my iTunes library, but still have all the content on my iPod Classic.  I have just downloaded some songs from the store and want to add them to the iPod, BUT when i attempt this the message asks if I want to delete all content on t

    I am rebuilding my iTunes library, but still have all the old content on my iPod Classic.  I have just download some songs from the iStore and want to add them to the iPod, BUT when I try to sync it asks if I want to delete all content from the iPod and add only the material that I have just downloaded from the Store.  I do not want to lose my old content, because it is very extensive.

    You are trying to sync to other than the one iTunes library you can sync to. You can copy music from multiple library/computer if you use the manual method of syncing. That method is described here
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
    If you want to make this computer/iTunes library your syncing computer/library you have to restore the iPod on this computer/library. Restoring erases the iPod.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
    To copy other music to the computer see:
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
    BTW this is the iPod touch forum

  • I want to add pictures to my itunes library so I can show them on itv?

    I want to add pictures to my itunes library so I can show them on itv?

    Following the thread in the discussions, I found this:
    - Edit > Preferences > Advanced, and uncheck "Keep iTunes Media Folder organized" and uncheck "Copy files to iTunes Media Folder"
    - Exit iTunes
    - Restart iTunes
    - Click to play a file that is in its new location
    - Locate it, click OK
    - It should eventually if not right away go look for other files when you confirm to find other files
    - Recheck the boxes unchecked above.
    That solved the problem.

  • I want to sync my movies from iTunes onto my iPad, but when i try, it says it needs to "erase and sync" my iPad. If i erase and sync, will it delete my apps, photoa, and videos?

    i want to sync my movies from iTunes onto my iPad, but when i try, it says it needs to "erase and sync" my iPad. This is the first time plugging my ipad into my newwer computer.  If i erase and sync, will it delete my apps, photos, and videos?

    All devices only sync what you select to sync.
    If you do not want all of the music, then simply do not select all of the music to sync.

  • My ipod was set up on a Mac. Now I have a PC and want to sync my music on iTunes, but I can't without reformatting my drive and losing my music.

    My ipod was set up on a Mac. Now I have a PC and want to sync my music on iTunes, but I can't without reformatting my drive and losing my music. Help. I no longer have a Mac. I want to keep the music and videos I purchased. Since it is an iPod classic (80GB) I cannot even use the iCloud. Is there a way to move my ipod's music so I can reformat it to my pc?

    WIndows is asking you to reformat the iPod's hard disk because it's probably in the Mac OS X Extended Journaled file system format which the Windows OS can neither read or write to.  Reformatting will erase all content from the device and rebuild the filesystem as FAT32 unless you specify it as NTFS (which you shouldn't do).
    If you want to be able to use your iPod to copy music from your Mac to your PC, you'll need to either pre-format it as FAT32 using Disk Utility on your Mac and then copy everything over to your PC, or use third party software such as XPlay that allows a Windows PC to read and write to a Mac formatted iPod.
    Perhaps you could take a look at this article for other ways to copy your iTunes library and files from your Mac to the PC.

  • HT1766 Can you use an external hard drive to back up my movies in iTunes but still be able to access them or is there a device so I don't have to use a pc ??

    Can you use an external hard drive to back up my movies in iTunes but still be able to access them or is there a device so I don't have to use a pc ??

    You can store them on a separate hard drive, you don't need to keep them on your laptop's hard drive. On your computer's iTunes on the Advanced tab in Edit > Preferences there is a 'copy files to iTunes media file when adding to library' tickbox - if you untick that, you should be able to copy the films to a separate drive and add them back to your iTunes library (File > Add To Library) and it should then point to them on that separate drive and not copy them to your hard drive. When you are happy that it is what is happening and that they are safely on your external drive you can delete the films from your laptop's hard drive.
    If you plug the external drive into a different USB port next time (assuming that your laptop has more than one) then it might get a different drive letter, so you might need to always use it with the same port.

  • I am wanting to sync my music with iTunes but it says if i sync you will loose everythink cause it was synced with another libiary help?? will i loose everythink if i sync

    I am wanting to sync my phone on iTunes to transfer photos and music from my phone onto computer. It comes up saying "ALL exisintg photos and music on iphone will be erased with content on iTunes but i have nothing on iTunes. Will i look everythink if i agree to sync??

    If this is a new library, then yes, the content on the device will be erased and replaced with content from the new library.
    The iDevice is not a backup device... it is not designed to be used to move media from one computer to another.
    iDevices are designed to sync to one and only one computer at a time.

  • I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1.  It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

    I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1.  It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

    Annoying isn't it.
    This seems to have started at the end of October and may be some kind of 'authorisation expiry' on the original unit that needs updating.
    Solution include:
    Purchase something on the AppleTV1 itself with DRM (a free TV Show episode might be an idea if yiou can find one).
    Remove the connection to itunes by removing the iTunes library from AppleTV's Computers>Settings menu, then add it back again.
    Remember this will wipe synced content from the AppleTV if AppleTV1 is syncing (My Movies/TV Shows etc) as opposed to streaming (My Shared Movies etc) from that itunes library.  In theory direct purchases on AppleTV that have never transferred to itunes might survive the 'wipe for a clean slate for a new sync' process that happens when you remove a sync library but don't risk it and right click on the AppleTV Device in itunes, choose Transfer Purchases if there are any prior to resetting the AppleTV Computers entry and readding the library.  If AppleTV is streaming only it's very quick to remove the libarry and re-add it as there's nothing to sync when you re-establish the connection - it works I've done it.  Purchasing a protected music video on my other AppleTV1 which was synced also worked.
    Good luck
