Syncing a digital copy

I went to load a digital copy of The Dark Knight to my ipad just to just to try it. When I clicked sync, I received a warning that proceeding would entail removing my music and other stuff I already had on the ipad. What gives with that? you cant add without subtracting? I had plenty of space left. thanks in advance. (the manual doesn't seem to explain things well enough to me)

yes... I'm using the same computer. I did use the computer to sync an ipod touch prior to the ipad, but I no longer have the ipod. I thought that I had deleted all of the back ups for the ipod. Do you think that's got something to do with it?

  • Unable to sync the Digital Copy of movies I purchased to my IPhone

    I have purchased several movies in the past few days that have "Digital Copy" with them. I put the movie (DVD) in my computer, told it "ITunes", and went through the steps requested by ITunes. They actually show up in my ITunes account. My issue is, when I tell my computer to "Sync" my IPhone, it says that it has completed the sync, and all of my music is on the IPhone, but the Digital Copy of the movies are not there. Is there something that I am missing?

    Duh,,,, thank you

  • HT1539 How can a digital copy be used in a household with multiple apple ids, synced on the same computer?

    How can a digital copy be used in a household with multiple apple ids, synced on the same computer?  I want to put a digital copy on my device, and on my wife's device.
    Please help.

    you're welcome.
    actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close.  if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.

  • Is there any way to add a digital copy movie to an iPhone without syncing with my iTunes library? I use iCloud to sync, not iTunes. So when I go to sync movies, it deletes the other ones I already have loaded on the iPhone. Thanks.

    or is there a way to upload the digital copy to store in my iCloud account?

  • HT1539 I've burnt a digital copy of 3 blu ray dvds onto my iTunes, but i cant sync them to my iPad-an error message says device needs to be authorized, but its only authorised to this computer, i've never tried to use it on any other! Can anyone help?!

    Thanks for your reply, but you might have misunderstood it a bit. I'm NOT trying to buy a movie. ****, I'm not even in the actual Apple Store, when this happens I'm in the library not the Store part of iTunes.
    To clarify - I have purchased a physical copy of a movie which came with another physical copy which contains the digital copy. The digital copy is on the DVD, all I need is just to transfer this file to my iPod Touch, for example, I'm not trying to download it from the store or repurchase it and it's not any gift code that I've received, the digital copy is on the disc. This is the first time ever that I've purchased something on a disc and I'm not allowed to access it because the disc hasn't been purchased within my country.
    So again - I'm not attempting any purchase or download any purchased digital copy - it's on a DVD I own physically so... why is even the region of my Store relevant, the code I enter is (as I assume) just supposed to check if it's a legal genuine copy (which it is, as I've said - there are 6 discs in the pack: 3 movies on 3 Blu-rays and 3 DVD containing these digital copies of them). If I own it, I think that's proof enough that I have the right to use it. I just don't get it. I fully agree with you and understand your point if there was any purchase going on here, but it's not, it's just - I put a disc into my computer and I can't access it

    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • ITunes won't allow me to play/sync to ipod a digital copy

    I've just bought X-men Origins: Wolverine on dvd and it came with a digital copy, so i tried adding it to iTunes and that seemed to work but when i tried to play it, it plays (the seconds and minutes go forward) but with no picture/sound. When i tried to sync it to my iPod it said that I'm not authorised to play it on this computer. Thoughts?

    Try creating a play list and then choose only the songs you want in that play list.
    Then in iPad settings for music. Select manual selection and then just put a check mark by the new play list you just created. This way it only syncs this customized play list and not all of your music.
    Sorry, I don't have specific steps in front of me. You can probably just search for a tip on Apple's website if you need specifics.
    Good luck,
    BFM

    I registered a digital copy of a movie on disneymoviesanywhere.  I connected the account to my itunes account but I can't find the movie on my itunes account.  I'm just trying to download the movie onto my ipod touch.

    Hey cptniemo,
    Thanks for the question. Connecting your iTunes Store and Disney Movies Anywhere accounts should sync all of your eligible Disney, Pixar, and Marvel movies between both services. After connecting your accounts, you can check your purchased history in the iTunes Store:
    Download past purchases

    Alternatively you can download the free Disney Movies Anywhere app from the App Store (iOS 7 required):

  • I purchased a blu-ray of The Hunger Games and it came with a code for a digital copy. I redeemed the code on iTunes but the download has been continuing for 2 weeks now and it never finishes! The time just keeps going up. Never an issue in the past.

    I purchased the blu-ray of The Hunger Games and it came with a code to redeem for a digital copy. I redeemed the code in iTunes and the movie downloaded fine, but the "EXTRAS" have been downloading for 2 weeks! Everytime I launch iTunes it starts the download again and the counter keeps going UP, at one point it said it would take 3 weeks. I have paused and restarted the download, I have deleted the download, nothing works to finish or stop this download! Does anyone have a clue what's up?

    ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"

  • Can't play digital copy from blu-ray titles on iTunes 9.0.2.25?

    I tried to download and watch the digital copy of Star Trek that is included with my Blu-ray. It prompted me to enter my authorization code then had me log into the iTunes store. It seemed to download the movie fine (the download progress bar filled). When I tried to play the movie, it just brought up a gray window with no picture or audio. The progress bar and time indicator seemed to progress properly. The chapter selection menu showed the correct thumbnail pics. But there was only the gray screen with the control panel buttons on the bottom.
    Trying to sync with my iTouch told me it was not copied to my iTouch because I am not authorized to play it on this computer?
    I tried the same with Wathchmen with the same results. I was able to view the movie fine with the Windows Media version of the digital copy.
    I'm running Windows XP Pro. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks.

    I use the 32-bit version but noticed the same behavior. I found that if I started iTunes from the Start Menu I could right-click the icon on the Taskbar and selected Pin to Taskbar. Worked perfectly with full Win7 integration.
    As you know, the pin function prior to 9.0.2.25, allowed pinning from a shortcut. I've found other anomalies also so I wouldn't be surprised if a newer update will be pushed out soon.

  • Dark Knight Digital Copy doesn't run on iPod 5G

    I recently purchased the Blu-Ray version of the Dark Knight (fantastic by the way), and thought that it would be great to be able to watch it on the go on my ipod. The 2-disc (well, really 3-disc including the digital copy) included a CD called Digital Copy. I put it into my Mac. I opened iTunes, clicked "Dark Knight" in the Devices list, and I entered my Redeem code.
    After around 5 minutes, the movie downloaded successfully, and I was able to play it on my computer. I noticed that the resolution was 853x480, but I still synced it to my iPod.
    I ejected my iPod, then on my iPod, went to Video->Movies->Dark Knight. After a few seconds, a loading screen comes up (a spinning object, really) and then it takes me back to my Movies menu.
    How can I get my iPod to play the movie? If resolution is indeed the issue, how can I scale the video down to playable size? What IS a suitable resolution??
    Thanks in advance,
    -SB

    The Digital Copy of Dark Knight is encoded and provided via a proprietary player. The resulting file that you downloaded from their site is NOT iTune or Quicktime compatible. It won't play in Quicktime Player, in iTunes nor will you be able to sync it to an iPod.
    Nor can you convert the resulting file to a Quicktime or iTune compatible file (.mp4). Warner Bros has evidently taken great pains to keep this digital movie file within a encrypted format.
    (I am writing this from experience. I too thought I could download and view the Dark Knight Digital Copy on my iPod. Once I read the fine print, I didn't even bother to download it.)
    sorry to burst any bubbles out there.
