Re-download digital copy for new iPad?

I've acquired a number of movies via the Blu-Ray/Digital Copy bundles at retail. They now look somewhat blurry on the new iPad.
Does anyone know if Apple has made higher-res versions of these digital copies available, and if so, how I might go about re-downloading them?
While iTunes sells the movies in HD, I shouldn't have to re-purchase a movie I already own on Blu-Ray as well as the digital download...?

The digital copies that come with those blu ray bundles are in standard definition, they always have been and most likely probably will always be just standard definition. Even if those downloads originated for iTunes.
With the announment of the new apple tv being capable of 1080p resolution, and with the announcement of movies from certain movie studios being available in the iCloud. The movies are steamed to the new apple tv in 1080p, but only if those movies are available in iTunes, and only if those movies are provided in iTunes in 1080p resolution.
As with the new movies in the iCloud and how that pertains to your devices like the iPad (doesn't matter if it's the 1,2 or 3 model) iTunes doesn't steam those "iCoud" movies to your device it physically downloads it in standard definition only.
Sorry for the disappointment, but that comes directly from Apple representatives in both iTunes and iCloud support.

    Yes, the old album art view is gone, bu you can see the album art for a song that's playing by clicking on the art image and it will open a bigger view.
    Everything else in your post is a waste. I'm not going to spend time reading it. If - and I repeat if, you have a question on how to get the best out of the new look iTunes, post it. But don't spend your time in long rambling negative rants.

    Reboot your iPad and then see if you can set the security questions.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO DOWNLOAD A MOVIE THAT I HAVE A DIGITAL COPY FOR IT GIVES ME A MESSAGE about purchasing a hd version vs the sd version

    Hello everyone,
    I was having the exact same, irritating, problem.  The only way I was able to work around this lovely little quirk was to redeem the code on my iPod touch.  I would guess it would also work on any apple touch pad device.  I only had to input the code once and it began downloading.  I was then able to go back to my iTunes on PC and it began downloading there too.
    *Sidenote: Be sure to uncheck the "Download HD when available" option.
    I hope this works and helps the rest of you. 

  • I just downloaded the updates for my iPad 2 and cannot open aps or install new aps.

    I just downloaded the updates for my iPad 2.  Now I cannot open my aps.  I have tried rebooting and installing a new ap.  Still doesn't work.  Also cannot choose the "install" under getting a new ap.  It's totally frozen.  Any ideas?

    You tried rebooting this way?

  • To my PC and wish to read this on an iPad I have downloaded digital editions to the iPad and can open on my account  how do I authorize this iPad and will the book open once this is done

    i have downloaded an book to my pc and wish to read it on my ipad I have an Adobe digital account so I downloaded digital editions to this iPad  how do I authorize this and will the book automatically come on the instrument  when I open my account

    Thanks so much.  Unfortunately, this did not solve the problem.  I attempted to go to Safari and follow your subsequent instructions; however, the same screen comes up with the locked url address.  I tried going to "new page" but again, each effort reverts back to the locked url. Thaks so much for your time and courtesy in trying to help.  Guess I'll have to pay for Apple tech support.  :-(

  • I cant download apps on my new ipad air

    i dont recognise my security questions when trying to download apps on my new ipad air.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • I started download iOS 6 to New iPad, but it's stopped and not possible to re-start again

    I started download iOS 6 to New iPad, but after some time it's stopped and not possible to re-start it.
    Thank You very much for Yrs help

    Are you doing this OTA or via iTunes on your computer?
    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

  • Is it possible for new ipad buyer change for Ipad 4?

    i heard that apple had stop produce the new ipad due to the ipad 4 is coming. it's really unfair for new ipad buyer who just buy it this year. is it possible for the new ipad buyer change their ipad with the ipad 4?

    This is just a website scam that's going around right now. It cannot infect you in any way.
    Some people have reported being directed to the App Store to download a particular camera app. If you are, do not download it. It cannot infect you with anything, but you don't want to reward the scammers by downloading their app. If you downloaded the app and paid money for it, contact Apple to dispute the charge.

    Hi my name is Catherine I have downloaded digital editions and a book to my PC but wish to read this on an iPad. I have downloaded Digital Editions on the iPad and don't know how to authorize it. Will the book automatically download onto the iPad once tihis is done and I open my account on the iPad?

    YOu can also use Bluefire Reader for reading books that need an Adobe ID. There are several ways to transfer a book to your iPad. One way is to email the acsm file, open the email on the iPad, and "Open in ... ". Another way is to use an app like Dropbox. The third way is to connect your iPad to your computer, open iTunes, select the iPad, and under  Settings select Apps. Scroll down to the File Sharing apps, select the app you want the book on, on the right select Add, navigate to where the book is on your computer, and select it. Open the app on your iPad and it should load.

    Hi Robertfrom Denver.
    Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
    I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
    I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?
