Is there a way to get an owned dvd movie into the movie folder for eventual syncing w/ipad?

I own a collection of Pink Panther old movies some of which I'd like to load into my movie folder on my iMac and then sync them into my iPad2 for viewing while traveling, etc. Is there a way to do this or am I limited to what's available on the Apple store?

But if they're not copy-protected, you can use Handbrake. It works pretty well to rip to H264 format.

    If the backup is corrupt, there is nothing that can be done.
    For what reason did you choose to not copy the pictures off the device to a computer prior to attemping an update or whatever caused the need to restore?  iPhones are not intended as sole storage of any media.

  • Is there a way to get my book marks back into Safari from a TM backup?

    Hello fellow Mac users. Is there a way to "restore" my wife's book marks from an earlier TM backup in safari?
    My wife deleted a bunch of files on her MBP. I went back to an earlier days TM backup and restored things in her documents folder etc but when she went into Safari all of her book marks are gone. Is there a way to get them back from one of the TM back ups? There was also another user that was deleted. Can that be restored?
    Thanks Very Much!

    To get the Safari bookmarks back, you need to locate the 'booksmarks.plist' file which should be located in the username/library/safari folder and replace the same file in the same folder for the user you want the bookmarks for.
    As far as restoring a previous user, I'm not sure. It might be easier to just make a new one. You should still be able to get the files from the previous user from your Time Machine backup if that's what you intended. If you could restore a user, it would have to be by using Migration Assistant, although I couldn't say as to whether that would work.

  • My daughter accidentally deleted her texting app off of her i-pod 4th generation.  Is there a way to get it back?  Or, is the there a way to re-install or install a new one.  The issue seems to be not being able to load a newer ios.

    Hello rkoslosky,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are not able to locate the Messages application on your daughters iPod touch (4th generation). The good news is that this application cannot be deleted or restricted. The first suggestion I have is to try and search for Messages using Spotlight to search the iPod touch for this application. If Messages is located in Spotlight, then it has probably been moved to a different page of applications or even possibly a folder of applications on the device. Searching all pages will help you locate it. 
    Search with Spotlight - Apple Support
    Have a great day,

    Plugins usually are installed externally to Firefox. However, you can disable them in Firefox so that Firefox does not use them.
    SearchReset is supposed to automate the task of resetting certain preferences, but you still can edit them manually if necessary.
    '''''Address Bar Search'''''
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''keyword''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Right-click '''keyword.URL''' and choose Reset. This should restore Google as the default for address bar search.
    Does that work?
    '''''Search Box'''''
    Usually it works to choose your preferred search engine from the drop-down. To remove an unwanted search engine plugin, usually the Manage Search Engines... choice at the bottom of the drop-down takes care of it.
    Do either of those work?
    There might be another way to hijack that search box; I think some of the other frequent responders probably are more familiar with it than I am.

    I opened a file to print and by accident highlighted and deleted the content. Then in a panic I closed the file and now when I open it is blank. Is there any way to get it back.  I have looked and can not see anyway. I dont have anything in my backup?

    I'm not sure about older versions, but in Pages 3.x (OS X 10.9.x) select File > Revert To > Browse All Versions.  Hopefully there will be an earlier version that you can "revert to".

  • Is there a way to save a photo I found on the Internet to my photos on my iPad mini? It only lets me save to my homepage, which I don't want to do. Please help!

    Is there a way to save a photo I found on the Internet to my camera roll photos? Here is my dilemma, I control a company's Facebook page and like posting cool photos, however because the business is just one of my pages I cannot simply post it to Facebook. On my laptop I normally do save as and choose from photos to upload, but it seems as though I cannot do that on my iPad mini.
    I am also a brand new apple user.

    To save an image while in a browser like Safari tap and hold on the image until a Save Image choice appears. Tapping on Save Image will put the image in your Camera Roll.

  • How do I get 'all' my audio books into the Audiobook folder?

    Hi, I'm an iTunes newbie (new touch) and am trying to get to grips with some of the quirks of iTunes.
    I have some audio books I purchased from Audible.co.uk and when imported into iTunes these go into the Audiobooks folder in the iTunes Library.
    However, I also have several audio books I have converted from CD's into MP3. When I import these into iTunes, they always end up in the music folder of the Library. No amount of dragging and dropping or searching of the 'preferences' have allowed me to move these files into the Audiobook folder. Can this be done in iTunes?
    Any help greatly received.
    Regards,
    Glenn

    If you are going to do it this way, I would suggest a SmartPlaylist.
    Highlight all of your audiobooks, go to file, then get info. Now, pick a section to edit (Comments, grouping or genre are the best choices) and enter a tag such as "Audiobook".
    Now, create a SmartPlaylist to only show anything with that particular tag.
    For example, "Genre contains audiobook". Only files with Audiobook will show up.
    Forgive me if you knew how to do this, but I figured as a new user this might be helpful.

    Consolidate your files in the iTunes folder
    You can consolidate all the files in your library in the iTunes folder—for example, to make it easier to move your library to a new computer.
    Choose File > Library > Organize Library.
    Select “Consolidate files.”
    Files remain in their original locations, and copies are placed in the iTunes folder.
    To create folders (Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Audiobooks, and so on) inside your iTunes folder, and place all your imported media files in the appropriate folders, select “Reorganize files in the folder ‘iTunes Media.’”

  • Is there any way to import my OWN DVD movies into iTunes and my video iPod?

    I just purchased the new 30 GB video iPod last week, and although I have already purchased a few movies from the iTunes store, I wanted to know if there was a way to import a DVD movie from my own DVD library like we can with our own music CDs?
    Thanks,
    Suzanne

    "That's too bad, because these are movies (DVDs) that I own and have purchased legally myself. How is that different from importing your own purchased CDs into iTunes? Seems like a double standard to me."
    About "legally owning" the DVDs - Yes, I understand, and I'm figuring that most folks who want to put their DVDs onto their iPod are owning the movies legally (or, at least, it appears so).
    That's not really the issue here, though.
    The problem is, there is an encryption that is written onto regular, copyrighted DVDs (i.e., movies). In order to get that onto your iPod, you will have to use software on your computer that breaks that encryption, and makes the file into some more "normal" format, like say, MP4.
    This action can arguably be considered as illegal, in a sense, since you are removing the encryption that's on DVD, which is protecting it from being easily copied, and transferred around. (which would be illegal).
    This is a bit different than CDs, since, although they are copyrighted too, the songs are usually not in a protected format.
    If you have a song that you've purchased from the iTunes Store, and you want to break into that "protected" file format, that's the same kind of issue as the DVD ripping.
    (Notice that the Hosts included that into the ADUA as well, right along with DVD ripping.)
    ...It's quite an interesting kind of subject, isn't it?
