Import movies into itune

Hello,
how can I import movies into itune. I have tried it with many formates but i doesen´t work and it doesn´t convert.
Thanks

If they are your own private vdieos, it's fine to import them. They need to be in the right format i.e. Quickitme format or MPEG4.
If the are not you need to convert them, here is a link to a free converter, I have not tried it myself so can not vouch for its quality:

Remove imported movies from itunes

How does one remove imported movies from itunes?

You can't put films into the cloud, whether they will show for redownloading (e.g. via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage) depends upon what country that you are in (they can't be redownloaded in all countries), whether you've changed countries since buying them (they won't show if you have), and if the rights-holder keeps them in your country's store (any item could be removed from the store at any time) - rather than relying on being able to redownload them you should copy them (and the reset of your iTunes library) to a backup drive (preferably drives) so that you have your own copy. By default your iTunes library is stored under : /Users/username/Music/iTunes
You can delete them from your library by selecting them and pressing the delete key on your keyboard.

Can't import movies to iTunes after setting up iTunes Match

Hi. I setup iTunes Match a couple of weeks ago (love it, btw), but for some reason since I set it up I can no longer import .m4v files into the Movies library. There is no error, they just never copy over.
iTunes 10.6.1(7) 64-bit on MacPro running OS X 10.7.3
Any ideas? Maybe its a strange coincidence, but I noticed the problem shortly after setting up Match.

Also, iTunes match gets stuck sometimes so you have to log out of match and log back in before your imported movies show up in your iTunes library.

Is there a way to import movies to iTunes?

Is there a way to import movies that I already own to iTunes?

Sorry, but if you're referring to a commercial DVD, those are copy-protected. Breaking the copy protection is illegal in the US, so discussing ways of doing it are not allowed here (since the US courts have been holding in some cases that even discussing in print such cracking may be illegal).

How can I import movies from iTunes to iMovie?

I download video lectures from iTunes University to iTunes 10 and need to export them to iMovie 11 for editing. How can I do this?

I can't figure out how to import from iTunes into iMovie. I can select and view all movies in iTunes, but don't see any options for moving them to iMovie. Any suggestions?
Open iMovie '08, select the "Import Movies..." File menu option, navigate to where the movie is located on your hard drive and import it in the "Copy" mode. Alternatively, navigate to the file in the finder and "drop import" the file directly to a convenient named "event" in the open iMovie '08 application or "event" folder if the iMovie '08 application is not open.

Importing movies to itunes. Please help!

Hi all,
So far this discussion board has been my saviour as am new to all this ipod business. Hopefully someone can answer this question too...
I have some movie files on my computer but they are AVI files. When I try to import them into itunes (by selecting add file to library) nothing happens at all. Do I have to convert the files to another type? If so, what's the best way to do this? I found a website which said I should convert them to mov files using a program called SUPER. Is this correct? Cause I tried this already and it took hours just to do one standard film.
I would be so grateful if someone could help me out on this one. It's driving me crazy! Thanks in advance

You would have to use a program, but the Touch won't work with high resolutions, it just doesent import them to it, 853 x 480 or lower is best to use

Importing movies into iTunes 11

I'm trying to import a few movies into iTunes. I used HandBrake to rip them (used AppleTV preset). Previously, I've imported them by going to Add to Library. But this time it isn't working... I also tried to drag and drop into iTunes (as per another thread). When I checked the iTunes Media folder (in home movies) all the movies are there, but they don't show up in Library. What am I doing wrong? The only thing I've done differently this time was using the Apple TV preset, previously I've used Regular Normal - could that be the issue????

I was having the same problem today with a m4v file. After a bit of searching around I found that manually putting it in iTunes' "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder did the trick. All of my earlier attempts to drag the movie into iTunes showed up as well (in the Home Movies category). I deleted the extra copies and added my own meta data.
Found on this site: http://johandry.blogspot.com/2013/01/digitalize-dvds-with-handbrake-for.html
" just copy the movie to the folder 'iTunes Media/Automatically Add to iTunes' located in the iTunes Library folder, usually in the /Users/username/Music folder but you may have it in other location even in an external hard drive. "

HT1473 how to import movies to iTunes from personal DVD's

Don't understand how to import movies on DVD/s to the iTunes library

If these are personal movies and you have the original files (that you created the DVDs from), use those instead. Converting to DVD then back reduces quality.
And as Skydiver119 noted, it is illegal to break the encryption on commercial DVDs, even if you own the DVD.

How to import .mov to itunes

Can't import a .mov movie to Itunes. How do i do that?

Open iTunes and drag your files into the library. If they are playable, you should see a green tab with the number of files and a progress bar at the top of the main window showing import progress.
You'll have to convert them to .mp4 files before your iPod will accept them. Select the movies in iTunes and use the Advanced menu -> Create iPod or iPhone version.

Cannot import Movie from iTunes on MacBook to iMac. Error says computer not

When I try to import the movie from the shared folder on my laptop to the desktop I get an error message that says this computer is not authorized. All of my computers have been authorized.

If you purchased and not rented, it should let you stream this to your TV?
You can't defeat the DRM protection from TV or movie purchases from iTunes.
There are two things you can try though if you purchased and not rented.
If, you have a computer with up to date version of iTunes on it, Delete the movie from your iPad and try downloading it from iTunes on your computer.
From there you have two options. One is to connect the iPad to your computer and sync it to the iPad, the try playing the movie from your iPad connected to your TV.
The other option is to leave the movie on iTunes on your computer. In iTunes main menu bar under Advanced, turn on Home Sharing. On your iPad activate iTunes Home Sharing, by going into the settings app, locate the video app settings menu on the left pane, then under Home Sharing, type in your Apple ID and password to activate this feature on the iPad.
Go to the video app, itself. You should see a Sharing tab pop-up. Tap this and an icon representing your iTunes library on your computer should appear. Tap this. Let it load. Under the movies tab, search for your downloaded movie, tap the movie and tap the play button to begin streaming the movie from your computer to your iPad connected to your TV.
If this is a rental, you can only view and play the movie from one device at a time. If rented, it may not let you view the movie from other than the iPad or iTunes on the computer or AppleTV.
If delete this from the iPad, download the rental movie to iTunes on your computer and follow my procedure for sharing your iTunes library, you maybe able to stream this from your computer to the iPad to your TV in that manner.

Import movie into iTunes

Probably simple but i don't know how to do it.
Made a video and put it on dvd of my kid - deleted it from my mac, now I want to import it to iTunes so it can be synced to my kids iPod.
I need to be walked through the steps to do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

First you need to get the movie on your DVD into a iPod format:
- RIP the movie file from the DVD using Handbrake (or some similar app). In Handbrake, you make sure the output file is for iPod (or whatever format you may want)
Once the movie is ripped from the DVD, you can then drag it onto the iTunes icon (or onto iTunes' window), and iTunes will import the movie.
Then, with your iPod connected, under its Movies tab (in iTunes), make sure it will sync with the iPod. Click sync an enjoy.

Import movie to iTunes

I have created a movie in Final Cut Pro and exported it to a DVD using DVD Studio Pro. I also have a quicktime .MOV version of the movie.
I want to import this movie into iTunes so I can download it to my iPhone. However, although I can import the .MOV file, it comes in with the wrong aspect ratio (4:3 instead of 16:9). I can't see how to import from the DVD at all...
Any ideas?

Need some more information:
What codec was used to generate the .mov from FCP and is it PAL or NTSC?
What are the current pixel dimensions?
You can find this out by opening the file in QuickTime Player and pressing cmd and i keys.
