Is there a way to transfer DVDs to itunes/ipod?

im trying to transfer my Michael Jackson's Visions dvd to my ipod touch. i know you can buy it in itunes, but i don't want to rebuy the movie just so it can be put on my ipod touch. i wanted to see if the imovies app would work but it seems to just be for mac.

Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

    Theft by finding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    From that link:
    "The finder of lost property acquires a possessory right by taking physical control of the property, but does not necessarily have ownership of the property. The finder must take reasonable steps to locate the owner. If the finder shows that reasonable steps to find the owner have been taken then the finder may establish that the required mens rea for theft, the intention to deprive the owner permanently, is absent."
    One could argue that leaving an item in the 'Lost and Found' box for 30 days meets that requirement.  I'm not saying that I beleive that- there are certainly additional things that could be done without much effort, such as checking in settings for their appleid/email address, etc.  But one could make that argument.
    In any case, there's no way to get that music off.
    I disagree about the 'Lost & Found' box in this situation.  We're not talking about an article of clothing.  There are most likely ways to identify a manner in which to contact the owner (such as the email address that shows in multiple locations on the device, or that pops up when you try to access iTunes or App store.
    It's like finding a wallet, but not looking at the address on the driver license to make any attempt to contact the owner.  It's easy to find a way to contact the owner in both scenarios.
    This is simply someone that is looking to get something for free, and 'cheat' the system.
    I guarantee you that if this guy lost his iPhone, he'd be ranting up a storm that whoever found it hasn't tried to contact them.

  • Is there a way to transfer music from my ipod to a new computer using itunes WITHOUT access to the old computer??

    Is there a way to transfer music already downloaded on my ipod to my new laptop, without having access to the original computer with itunes?? It is on my boyfriend's computer and we broke up - not a good option to ask him to use his computer...now I'm worried I won't get all my music back!

    Hi,
    I don't know if you can help me any further, but maybe you can direct me somewhere that will??
    I took your advice from above and went out and downloaded CopyTrans, paid the $20, downloaded everything - it worked beautifully!! Everything backed up and iTunes had all my songs.
    Then I guess I'm a huge idiot or just got overzealous, so I plugged in my iPhone, because I had a few purchases on there and thought I could everything in one place on iTunes. Something happened really BAD and all my songs on iTunes deleted and were replaced with the few that I had on my phone, plugged my iPod back in and somehow I must have clicked on the wrong thing and the iPod synced with the iPhone songs! I feel sick to my stomach!! Is everything gone???
    I did a "backup" in CopyTrans, but I have no idea where it was saved on my computer - when I go back into CopyTrans it acts like I need to pay again and doesn't show the backup file anywhere.
    Do you have any ideas or know where I can go for help - or is it a lost cause?

    Heres the story. I have all my songs for my 30 gig iPod on iTunes at my dads house and now that i got a computer at my house i need to put those songs onto my computer instead of my dads. I tried putting all the songs from my dads iTunes on the iPod and then pasting them onto my iTunes but i couldnt figure that out. Do you know if theres any way i could transfer the songs from computer to computer without having to import all my cd's over again onto my computer. If theres any way you could do this could you tell me?

  • Is there any way to transfer EVERYTHING from an ipod touch 1st generation to a new ipod touch?

    i have an ipod touch first generation and recently purchased a new ipod touch. is there a way to get all the photos and text from the old one to the new one?

    Easy.  Make sure all music and apps are in your iTunes library and just restore you new iPod from the backup of your old iPod.  Make sure you make a backup of the old one right before.  You should be offered that option when you first connect your new iPod to your syncing computer.  I was.

  • Is there a way to put DVD on my iPod 5th Generation w/out getting a ripper?

    I just got a DVD and a iPod with video. How do I get the DVD on the iPod without burning a copy or ripping it or whatever.?

    Try this:
    I had the same issue, however I used this program to transfer ...avi,mpg,wma..etc...;
    http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
    If the program is used the converted files will be in a folder called;
    C:\Program Files\videoraipodConverter\vodeos
    I'm pasting this from the Videora site, the settings worked for me when others didn't, enjoy:
    Configuring videora converter
    0) Start Videora iPod converter.
    1) Click setup in the left nav.
    1.5) Click the profiles tab.
    2) Click new profile.
    3) Now, configure that profile:
    profile name: ipod
    in the video settings section...
    mode: MPEG-4 > CBR
    resolution: 320x240
    passes: one
    bitrate: 768 kbps (384 kbps also works)
    framerate: 29.97 fps
    in the audio settings section...
    bitrate: 128 kbps
    sample rate: Input
    channels: stereo
    4) Click apply to save the profile.
    Now, you're ready to transcode.
    1) Click convert on the left nav.
    2) Click the transcode new video button.
    3) Pick your source video. Mine was an AVI from a torrent.
    4) Under quality profile, choose "ipod", the profile you created using the steps above.
    5) Click start.
    Now you're ready to get the video on your ipod
    1) In iTunes, under the File menu, select add file to library. Find the transcoded one. By default, the transcoded videos pop out under the Videora install directory.
    2) Drag and drop to your ipod.
    Questions/observations:
    1) I haven't been able to get H264 anything to work. Is it broken? How much smaller than MPEG4 is it?
    2) 768 kbps video was about 400 megs/hour; 384 kbps video was about 231 megs/hour. I could readily see a difference in video quality.
