Ok i think its rediculously difficult to put a video from my pc to my ipad2...

Why do i need 2 hours to finally put a video from my computer to my ipad and an additional 50 minutes for it to convert with software which is not even from apple?!?! What is wrong with the good old copy-paste?! Seriously, Apple is always saying its userfriendly, but this is absolutely ridiculous. I'm starting to which i chose the samsung galaxy instead. I hope someone can elaborate and maybe im just doing it wrong.

  • Is there a way to put a video from facebook into imovie?

    Is there a way to put a video from facebook into imovie?  The facebook video is on my friends wall. Draging it does not seem to work.

    You won't be able to drag and drop it, I think the workaround would be to try and 're-record' it using QuickTime. There's a screen recording ability that will record your hold desktop. My suggestion is to launch QuickTime. Under File Menu > Screen Recording. Get that all setup and ready to hit the red record button. Open Facebook. Playback full screen if possible, then pause it. Start the screen recording, then play the Facebook video. By default, the video will be saved into your Home folder>Movies folder. Open iMovie, go to File Menu > Import > Movies... and then navigate your way to your Movies folder and import that clip into an iMovie Event.

    I'v been trying to put a video from my laptop to my iphone for soo long now but i just cant, it wont let me put my video onto itunes but it just wont let me, i'm going crazy please help

    well, the video is probably in a format that iTunes doesn't recognize.  Convert it using an application like Handbrake.

  • Put purchased videos from iTunes on to a DVD with iDVD?

    So I bought some Kim Possible episodes from iTunes and I am trying to put them on a DVD. I can't figure out how, because for one thing, even if I try to put the video in iMovie first, the video cant even be used...so any ideas from anyone? And I can't figure out how to play with the movies in iDVD either, but I have played around with music and photos though...

    while getting an account in iTMS, you signed the terms of use...
    iTMS purchased videos are for watching only, no processing, no editing, no sharing to any other media (dvd, tape, ...)
    you have two options, to override that:
    * using a "screen recorder" as SnapzPro
    * connect a camcorder to your Mac's monitor outlet, re-import from tape...

  • I want to know how to put multiple videos from youtube onto a dvd for

    my uncle wants me to put youtube videos on a dvd from my mac i emailed the videos to my email and put them on my desktop but i don't know how
    to get them all on a d vd cause it won't let me my uncle is leaving tomorrow a nd i am trying to figure it out before he leaves help!

    I am having trouble figuring out how to transfer only certain photos on a DVD to my Mac. I don't want to transfer all of them. Any suggestions?
    How are the photos stored on your DVD? Are the DVDs backups of iPhoto Libraries or simple folders of photos?
    If the photos are in an iPhoto Library, you cannot import selectively, because you cannot open an iPhoto Library on a DVD. You will have to move the library  to a disk, where iPhoto can write to the library,  even if you only want to browse it.  iPhoto needs read/write access.

  • How can I put the Video from a bad DVD into iDVD and to a new DVD?

    I have a DVD (homemade, no copy protection) and it was created with primitive menu software. Is there a way to take the Video_TS folder and put it onto iDVD 08 and make a new DVD from it? The old DVD no longer plays in my home DVD player and I want to make a decent menu for it etc.

    Toast is a better option for you.
    But if you really need the fancy menus of iDvd and whatnot, then you'll need to find a way to convert the mpeg 2 files to QuickTime for importing into i-apps. This app may help:

  • New PC, New iTunes, how do I put Music/Video from my iPhone onto new PC?

    Hi,
    My dad's old PC crashed (for the final time) and he went and ordered yet another PC (Dell) anyway, he's looking to know how to get all his music and video's off his iPhone and saved into the new iTunes?
    I though i'd ask first before I go and have a play about with it. New PC's running Vista so i'll have to play around with that first.

    Thanks!
    I replaced the new 'iTunes Music' folder with the older 'iTunes Music' folder from the external Hardrive and it copied all the previous tracks/Albums into the new iTunes... however there was no Applications folder down the left hand side in iTunes? Then I clicked> File> Transfer purchases from Dad's iPhone and it started to sync and a new Applications folder appeared down the left hand side in iTunes and Applications on Dad's iPhone are syncing to the new iTunes on the PC along with some music purchased on his iPhone as I type. I don't know why the purchased music was never backed up - unless he didn't back up that often? and there was no backed up App's in the iTunes folder on the External Hardrive?
    No photos so far but i'll take a browse around and see if I can find anything else on the External Hardrive.

  • What adapter/converter do I need to put GoPro videos onto iPad

    What adapter/converter do I need to put GoPro videos from my iMac to my iPad?

    What file type are the videos? If you have converted them to GoPro video format, iMovie should be able to convert the video to a format that con be used by the iPad.
    H.264 videos output by the camera may be able to be used by the iPad by directly importing them from the camera to the iPad with Apple's Camera Connection Kit.

  • Just tried to update iPhone 4S to 6.1 and it first of all failed to back up then it failed to update so i had to put it in recovery mode and restore it then it failed to restore starting to think its an itunes issue does anyone have any advice?

    Just tried to update iPhone 4S to 6.1 and it first of all failed to back up then it failed to update (Error 11) so i had to put it in recovery mode and restore it then it failed to restore with an unknown error starting to think its an itunes issue does anyone have any advice?

    if your computer is not recognizing it, try using a different USB port or different usb cable. if that doesnt work you will need to uninstall and reinstall itunes.

  • How to make each playlist for each movie songs ? when i tried to add songs all movie songs comes in row , its very difficult to find which movie song belongs?

    how to make each playlist for each movie songs ? when i tried to add songs all movie songs comes in row , its very difficult to find which movie song belongs?

    Thank you! I put some self help hypnosis tracks to listen to on my iPod. I did not want to go to the next track automatically, I wanted to listen to them individually, one at a time. (If I fell asleep, I did not want to 'wake up' in the middle of a different track.) Your information helps me understand that I need to re-load this playlist onto my iPod from my  Mac computer, only first, I need to UNCHECK the boxes in front of each track so the iPod will STOP each time after playing the selected track. It is too bad that so many functions are not availabvle within the iPod, but that is probably why they can make it so compact.

  • I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise.

    I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise. I have seen lots of old posts which go on about converting files but am wondering wherher at the current time with the latest versions of itunes and apple tv whether this should by now be a virtual play out of the box solution.
    I have tried connecting my atv to the amp by optical cable but that didnt produce anything better and am assuming that a hdmi cable should be able to reproduce everything an optical cable does.
    Is this something I should be able to achieve without having to recode the files?
    Tracks are imported to itunes as apple lossless, have tried setting the atv audio settings to auto and 16 bit, neither works yet I was told some time ago by an apple rep that the atv shoud be able to handle any type of audio as it just passes it to the amp to decode. I am not stupid but not that technical when it comes to audio and bitrates etc so any explaination would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

    No app on the iPod is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - If not shown/shown off, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • I have a firefox update 27.0.1 that keeps popping up and I think its a fake and I need it removed please.

    Im running vista here. A firefox 27.0.1 update notice keeps popping up by my toolbar on bottom right side of my screen.. and goes away. Moments later a big EMPTY firefox update box appears in the middle of my screen. All it lets me do is close it, but it always comes back about 2 hours later.
    I think its an empty fake !!!
    How do I get rid of it .... please help me.

    Normally warnings are fakes but in your case I am not sure.
    Your sytem info aside is indicating you are using Firefox 21, so either you are using an out of date and unsupported version of Firefox, or something is going wrong and Firefox is not reporting the correct information.
    When you use the Firefox button and the help option you should get an option about firefox that confirms the version you are using.
    Possibly you have security software preventing updates. Have a look at these articles then please post back and confirm what version you are using.
