Is there not a way to transfer movies among our few family members?

Is there not a way to transfer movies among our few family members?
For instance, our 6 year old's iPod is low on space but my wife's isn't. She'd like to buy/download a few kid movies to her iTunes/iPod for our 6 year old to watch on an upcoming trip. Whenever we replace his iPod with one with more space, we'd like to move those movies from her iTunes account to his.
Also, we just bought Apple TV and are starting to get a sense that the Apple "model" is very individual-focused (it can work with only one person's iTunes account). I was hoping for some more flexibility within our family.
Thanks for any insight/help.

Hi Shannara,
One way to resolve this would be to download it again on the iPod by following the appropriate instructions in this article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

You'll want to use this section:
To view or download previously purchased:
Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on iOS
Apps on iOS
Take care!

  • Could you please tell me why as a Brit resident in Japan therefore having a billing address that is Japanese is forced to only get service from the Japanese online store? Is there not some way of allowing me to select movies and music to buy and download

    Could you please tell me why as a Brit resident in Japan therefore having a billing address that is Japanese is forced to only get service from the Japanese online store? Is there not some way of allowing me to select movies and music to buy and download from other stores. Why do am i forced to try to nread Japanese when I have selected English as my language. The price for Downloads is no different and even if it was I am happy to pay. This also applies to Movie rental which is crazy and extremely restrictive. I a supposed GLOBAL community why does Apple do this.

    You can buy ONLY from the itunes store of your country of residence (As proven by valid billing address of credit card) and ONLY while inside the borders of that country.
    These are the terms of the itunes store.

  • I download quite a few magazines through the app store on my iPad. I just bought an iMac and was wondering if there is a way to transfer those purchases over so that I could read them on my Mac?

    You should be able to use the OpenVPN Connect app running on your iPad to connect your iPad to the VPN directly. It is an official OpenVPN client for iOS devices.
    In what way is it "not compatible"? Have you tried it? Tunnelblick is an OpenVPN client, so your school's VPN is using the OpenVPN protocol. That means any OpenVPN client should be able to access it. (It is possible, but unlikely, that your school uses encryption that is not available on the iPad, but that would be very unusual.)
    Otherwise, a remote control app on your iPad would let you control your Mac at home. "Back to My Mac", for example, would allow you to control your Mac remotely. The tricky part of this is that usually a VPN is set up to send all Internet traffic via the VPN server, and I'm not sure how that would work with "Back to My Mac".

  • Fm: HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION there's a way to transfer rp50m-text1

    Hi everyone !
    I need to make batch input for maintain text fo specific infotype.
    I use FM: HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION.
    There's a way to transfer rp50m-text1 ? ?

    You cannot use HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION to maintain texts on an Infotype.. the reason: the Texts are stored in PCL1 cluster & not the db table.. you have to export the texts .. search the HCM forum for 'export ptext to database pcl1(tx) id key' & you will find some sample code snippets..

  • Is there an easier way to transfer your iTunes library on windows to a mac than copying the library to a usb and plugging the usb into the mac and put the library in the iTunes file

    is there an easier way to transfer your iTunes library on windows to a mac than copying the library to a usb and plugging the usb into the mac and put the library in the iTunes file? I recently swapped to Mac and this is how i moved the library from windows to mac and library is in tact but is there an easier way? My cousin just imported her cd's again, but it was harder for me as i have an ipod with over 150 apps and i needed to move them. i think it would be helpful if i knew of an easier way so i can help a friend move his. Thanks

    The general method of use is to download a script (double-click or right-click and use Download or Save As...) to a folder of your choice, e.g. your Desktop, Downloads folder or create a folder at ...\iTunes\Scripts. Select a playlist or highlight some tracks in iTunes and then double-click on the script to execute it. If no specific tracks are selected the script will try to work with all tracks in the current playlist or sometimes the entire library.

    If you want to drag and drop ( don;t know why you would do this), you will have to check manually manage music.
    Why not just sync?

  • Seriously? Is there not any way to view DRM-protected books downloaded from iTunes on my MacBook Pro?  I cannot believe that there is no way around this?

    Seriously?  Is there not any way to view and read DRM-protected books downloaded on iTunes on my MacBook Pro?  I cannot believe that there is not any way around this!  I seem to constantly get confounded by what seems to be the most amazingly unbelievable conundrums with Apple despite having been a champion of the company for years and years.  This relates to tethering on iPhone, external Apple hard drives only being usable with MacBook Air, and now this! If anyone is aware of a hack or way around this I would appreciate some guidance.  Thanks!

    "Seriously? "
    Yes.
    " Is there not any way to view and read DRM-protected books downloaded on iTunes on my MacBook Pro?"
    There is not.
    " I cannot believe that there is not any way around this!"
    Believe it.

  • Is there an easy way to transfer playlist from laptop to iMac?

    Hi,
    I just made custom tunes and a playlist on my laptop.
    How do I transfer the playlist (with the new tunes) to my iMac?
    Do I have to find the actual songfile on the laptop - copy to laptop desktop, then through "target mode" - copy to desktop of imac and put in library?  Or is there an easier way???
    Thanks!

    The method I have used is to export the playlist on the first Mac, File>Library>Export Playlist, this creates a text file that you save to say your desktop.  Then copy that text file to the second Mac and from iTunes on the second Mac import that playlist, File>Library>Import Playlist.
    Note however this will NOT copy the songs from one Mac to another, but assuming you have the same songs on both, this method works well. If you dont have the same songs on both as you said then you first need to copy the songs manually from 1 Mac to the other, either through Home Sharing or Add to Library etc.
    Easiest way to do that is to create a new folder on desktop, drag the songs in your playlist into that folder, copy that folder to your iMac then Add to Library from iTunes on your iMac & select that folder you just copied.
