Movies from mac to Droid X (digital copies)

I have a Macbook Pro, and cannot transfer movies that I ran off from DVD digital copies onto my phone. If I need to reformat, fine, just don't know how to do that and what software is best. Plus, if I reformat, will it make the movies useless for my ipod video? Have tried drag and drop to both the phone, and to the micro sd card itself, nothing works. What format do the movies need to be in to work on my phone? They are in Mp4 right now. Any help is appreciated.

This is most likely because the digital copies usually have there own version of Micro-vision that will stop the files to be transferred to multiple devices, also this makes it a little difficult to be able to upload to any file sharing app and share illegal copies. Im not a MAC user but with Windows you can right click on file and go into the properties, click on Details and scroll down until you see the word "Protected", if this options says yes then you know that some security settings had been setup on that video file and you have to filter it with a 3rd party app, but since once again I point out that I do not own a MAC, I cant even say if this is possible.
Also how are you transferring file? This could be another possibility to you problem...Your not transferring through any software?

HT5330 If I move from Mac/Mobile Me email to iCloud, will my current account's email vanish?

Probably a silly question. I am running Snow Leopard and for a couple of days have not been able to send mail from my long-time Apple email account. I have started the move from Mac/Mobile Me email to iCloud, when all I really need is to enable the iCloud SMTP server, I think.
When I was a few steps into the move, I reached the point where I had to either "continue" with my current email address/password, or create a new email account If I follow Apple's direction and "add" an account with my core user info, will I end up with "my" account as iCloud, but with my current account's email "vanished?"
I go back far enough that my Apple user name is not an email address, and my email address is dot.Mac, and I'd like to keep it that way, but right now I just want to be able to "send." Since my problem began I have been writing and then saving emails on my iMac, then opening them on my iPad or iPhone and sending the emails from those devices. Thank heaven for IMAP!!!!
Thanks,
Laura

[email protected] [email protected] and [email protected] are all the same thing: emails to all three go to the same inbox. You must presumably have gone through the migration process from MobileMe to iCloud before 1 August last, or you would have lost access to the account. However if you didn't set up Mail for the different iCloud server settings I wouldn't have expected to go on working this long.
In any case, I would suggest you delete the account from Mail (this won't delete anything on the server) and set it up again from scratch following the process described in this illustrated article:

Removed Movie from .Mac Web Gallery But Broken Link Remains?

I published a movie to my Web Gallery successfully. I then tried to republish but got two movies in the Gallery. One movie worked and the other was a broken link. I removed the movie from .Mac using Share>Remove From .Mac, and the working movie was removed. But I am still left with a broken link in the Movies section of my Web Gallery. How can I remove this broken link?
I checked my iDisk and found \Web\Sites\_gallery, but I can't find the index file for the gallery (only folders for the albums).
Thanks, Will

I'm having the same problem (broken links after a republish) -- and a few others:
1) After about the first time, I have been unable to remove a movie from the gallery. I just get a connection error. I'm able to add movies (somehow the connection magically works) but removing fails most of the time.
2) When adding a movie, for some reason, the title of the movie ends up replacing the "My Gallery" title for my entire web gallery. On the web gallery home page (over my photo albums and videos) it shows the title of the first video.

Can I move MPEG movie from Mac to my iPad?

Can I move a protected MPEG movie from Mac to my iPad?

Protected with what and in what way?
As long as you can drop the mpeg into iTunes you should be able to sync it from iTunes to your iPad with the supplied cable in the usual way you'd sync anything else from iTunes to your iPad.

Thanks for that, it was really helpful.
Glad to hear that worked for you. While formatting an external drive with a Mac format is best if it will be used only with a Mac, if the files on the drive have to be accessible to a PC also, it's possible to format it in an exFAT format, which both the Mac and a PC can read from and write to. However, if you do that, do the actual formatting while the external is connected to the PC.

Google it. There are many from the top level 'Roxio Toast' down to free burning apps such as 'Burn'. Depends on how much you wish to spend and the quality and presentation of the DVDs you wish to make.
Good Luck

Watch movie from Mac Air to tv without AppleTV

Can I use a Thunderbolt to hdmi cable to watch movies from my MacAir without having to go through AppleTV? I have been successful getting the video to show up, but no audio was sent to my TV.
Thanks in advance

I'm a Mac person. That's the first thing I tried. There is no setting other than internal speaker or Airplay via my netwrok. It appears that this cannot be done and my Air is new this past summer. Would have thought this would have been adressed.

Unable to stream movies from mac

This problem is making my AppleTV almost unusable.
Never had a problem playing movies stored on my iTunes on my MacBook Pro on the AppleTV until the last update. Now when I attempt to select a movie, it takes upwards of 10 minutes for the movie to start playing.
I've done all the basic troubleshooting I've seen online. I have an Airport Extreme on the network running 802.11n, the signal strength on the AppleTV is excellent, the MacBook Pro has excellent signal strength (all wireless), I've checked for updates, verified network settings. Not sure what else to do. I used to have no problems at all watching movies on the AppleTV, now it's painful.
I have crappy Satellite Internet, but have had that for years, although I can stream a video from youtube over my Satellite Internet better than watching a video stored on my Mac.

I'm having a similar problem with my rented movies. I rented a movie from my iMac, and am trying to view it on my Apple TV, and I'm getting the error message that the content could not be loaded. I get the flower petal circle indicator, then the screen switches to what looks like the movie starting (the movie time indicator is now at the bottom of the screen), and then I get the error message.

Can't move a movie from Mac to external hard drive

Hi community!
I have troubles with moving already finished movies from my mac to an external harddrrive. My ext. hard drive is 2 TB so space is not an issue. When I try to move my movie-file (15,77 GB) to my ext. hard drive it says:
"The item “(title)” can’t be copied because it is too large for the volume's format"
This is really a problem. I want to share the movie with my family since it is their holiday that I clipped together. Can anyone help me out?
Best regards,
Sune

A FAT32 drive can't store files which are 4GB or larger. You need to reformat or repartition the drive to include an exFAT, NTFS, or Mac OS Extended volume, or use a different drive, or use a way other than an external drive to transfer it.

How To Transfer iTunes Rented Movies from Mac to Apple TV

I have an Apple TV (ATV) 3rd generation. I rented a movie through iTunes on my mac and downloaded the movie onto my mac. I see in the Apple TV manuel at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657 that ATV 1st generation had the ability to move movies from iTunes on mac to be stored on the ATV.
Is this possible on ATV 3rd generation?
Is the only solution to airplay from my mac to the ATV?
If airplay is the only answer then is there any picture loss with this method?
Thanks

How do you view quicktime movies from MAC to TV?

I'd like to view quicktime movies from my MacBook Pro to HDTV. What do I need to do?

Not every retailer carries mini-DP to HDMI adaptors, so you might want to call ahead. If you find one, make sure that it carries audio - some won't. You can certainly find them online. Apple normally stocks a Moshi version which supports audio, but they're back-ordered at the moment. If you have trouble finding them locally, try newegg.com.
Edit: meant to add, a newer option is to get an AppleTV v3 connected to your TV, connect it to your wireless network, and mirror your Macbook Pro to the AppleTV using Airplay Mirroring. May even not be much more expensive than the adaptor+cable option. Details here:

Problems with transfer of movies from Mac to external drive.

I want to transfer movies from my iTunes library to an external drive, in order to back them up for future use. I keep getting the message:
"The operation can’t be completed because the item “Cabaret.m4v” is in use."
How do I solve this problem?
Kerneels

Have you restarted your computer?
By the way, "transferring" is not the same as "backing up". Backing up means more than one copy on separate drives.

I have downloaded a tv series onto my mac book and want to transfer it to my Ipad. I have used the USB cable to try and transfer and sync but it wont work
can anyone help
Thank you

In iTunes select your iPad from the left-hand pane under 'Devices', then select the appropriate tab from the top. If it's a movie then select 'Films', if it's a TV series then select 'TV Programmes'. You can check which is the correct one to use by selecting the category from the top of the left-hand pane and seeing which one the item you want to synchronise is in. Then ensure that 'Sync Films/TV Programmes' is checked. Finally click the 'Sync' button in the bottom right of iTunes.
