Transfer purchased movies from iPad to computer

When I purchase a film from iTunes Store on my MacPro I can drag and drop transfer it to my iPad in iTunes - no problem.
BUT if I make the purchase on my iPad I can't seem to be able to transfer the film to my MacPro.
Am I missing something easy or what?
Any help much appreciated.

Are you using Transfer Purchases? Connect the iPad to the MBP, launch iTunes, right click on the iPad name under devices and select Transfer Purchases.
Are you using the same Apple ID on the iPad as you are using on the Mac?

How do I transfer calendar changes FROM ipad TO computer?

how do I transfer calendar changes FROM ipad TO computer?

Thanks Chris. Trouble is, I have created a pile of calendar detail (and contacts) in iPad, but have a blank version of Outlook on Pc (had to reinstall). Reading synch instruction, implies iPad will synch with pc, and delete existing iPad content (plenty) and replace with pc outlook content (zilch). So I would stand to lose everything.
Have turned on iCloud on iPad, but can't see any content in pc based iTunes, (nor of course, in Outlook)
So want to be sure to keep what I have ON iPad and transfer it TO Outlook. I can then continue to edit/add content on iPad and transfer that TO computer (from time to time)
Any ideas?

Playing purchased movies from iPad that had been synced to my computer

Downloaded purchased movie from itunes to my computer and then synced it to my IPad. I tried playing the movie from my iPad to my apple tv and it says this device is not authorized to play content. Also tried from iPod but no luck! I can watch the movie on my iPad but I can't AirPlay it! Any suggestions,

Like you I am having the same problem. I am at a loss, seems despite the fact I have purchased the content and am only using the TV as a display I don't understand the authorization question. I hope someone has an answer.

How can I stop iTunes from transferring purchased apps from iPad to computer?

How can I stop iTunes from transferring purchased apps from iPad to my computer? I don't want them taking up space on my computer. iPad backups and apps on the cloud are enough to ensure my apps are backed up, so I don't understand why they need to be on iTunes too. I'm running Mavericks, iTunes 11.1.5 and iOS 7.0.6.

There isn't an app for that!
As far as I can tell there is no option to give you that control. It is worth noting that apps can be withdrawn from the store at any time. Should your device need restoring you need all the apps in your library to transfer to it before the app data can be successfully restored. Pulling that all down from the cloud would be time consuming.
If space is becoming an issue you should consider moving the library to a bigger drive (which you should also backup to another).
As a temporary measure you could try deleting some larger apps using Finder from within iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications while keeping the entries in your library. iTunes may complain during syncs that it cannot copy apps to the device because they cannot be found, but it should not clear them from the device. Test first on a single app that doesn't have any data that you would mind losing in case the behavior has changed from the last time I tested it.

How to upload movies from ipad to computer

how to upload movies from ipad to computer

How does one copy movies which appear in the Videos App to a computer? The article linked in Diavonex's post only describes how to copy videos and photos which appear in the Photos App. I have movies on the iPad (visible only in the Videos App) which I synced from another computer and I can not sync them back to iTunes on my current computer. If I try to turn on the Movie sync, it will erase those movies on the iPad and copy the ones on my computer to the iPad. I do not have the old Mac from which the movies were originally synced, and I don't have the original movie files. These are not downloaded movies, they are movies I created myself and transcoded to .m4v format and synced to the iPad. How can I copy/ transfer these movies off the iPad?

Unable to transfer purchased movie to iPad

I recently purchased "Twilight (2008)" and tried to transfer it to my iPad. I got an error message that said that it was unable to do so because it is not authorized to be played on my computer. However it plays fine on my computer and it sync'ed fine w/ my AppleTV. It is HD/SD and has iTunes extra. I tried setting the iPad preferences to "prefer SD version" and not include iTunes extras when syncing w/o luck. I contacted iTunes support and they told me to repurchase and try again so I deleted the original purchase and purchased it again w/o any luck. This is the only movie where this is happening. Other movies have sync'ed fine and purchases since this one have also sync'ed fine. Support told me that I would have to contact Tech Support which would charge me for support which totally bites because this is clearly a problem on their part. Any ideas from y'all?
By the way, I'm using latest verion of Lion on a new Mac Mini w/ latest iTunes update. iPad is iPad 1 w/ latest updates.

*** FIXED ***
Just to update. After posting the previous message, I was unable to sync any purchased Movies or TV Shows after Nov 15th to my iPad or iPhone. When I tried to sync, it kept saying that those purchases were not transfered because they were not authorized for my computer (on which I purchased them). All movies and TV shows purchased prior to Nov 15th would still sync fine. Music and music videos have had no problems regardless of purchase date.
I suspected that there was something going on w/ iClouds because it was about the time that iClouds was rolled out that things stopped working for me. I have two apple ID's. One is for all my iTunes purchases which I've had forever and the other was more recently set up (couple years) for MobileMe. I'm not sure if iTunes was confused because of this or not. Things seemed to go wrong about the same time I made the switch over the iCloud using my MobileMe account. Even though I purchased everything only using the first Apple ID maybe it somehow thought I was trying to sync using the second which had no authorized purchases.
At anyrate, I just got off the phone w/ tech support who figured it out for me. There is a folder on your main HD under "Users/Shared" called "SC Info". It is apparently contains configuration data for iTunes. If you delete that by putting it in the trash then restarting the computer, it should solve this issue. So the path to that folder is main_HD --> Users --> Shared --> SC Info. After deleting this folder and rebooting, you will need to re-authorize your computer in iTunes then re-sync your devices and everything should transfer OK.
Hope this helps for anyone else who may be having similar issues.

How to transfer purchased movie from itunes to Windows 7

I purchased a movie from itunes, played it on my mac, now I want to play it on a PC running Windows 7. How can I transfer it?
Thanks, Mike

You need to install iTunes on your Windows 7 machine (if it is not already installed), you need to login to the iTunes Store using the same Apple ID as the Mac. You then need to copy the movie file from the Mac on to the PC. You then need to tell iTunes on the PC to import that file.
When you then try playing it on the Windows PC, it should ask for permission (and password) to activate that computer with the iTunes Store. It should then be able to play it.
You can have up to five computers (Mac or PC) activated at the same time.

Can't transfer purchased movie from iPhone to iTunes library

I purchased a movie from iTune store on my iPhone. When I sync'd the iPhone with iTunes an icon was created in iTunes movie library, but there's no movie, just an icon. The purchased movie is still on my phone. I've re-sync'd, re-built iTunes, etc... No luck.
How do I get the movie from the iPhone to iTunes movie library?
I've researched this for a couple weeks and have failed at every turn.
Any input would be appreciated.

tried that long ago...:)

Transfer mp4 movies from iPad to iPad bypassing PC or Mac

Is it possible to transfer my own mp4 movies stored under Video app from one iPad to another iPad while away from home pc or Mac? I tried three apps: Feem Wifi file Transfer free, Instashare - transfer files the easy way, FileMaster File Manager and Downloader without luck because they only look at camera roll.

As far as I know the only way to get content from the Videos app on one device to another device is via a computer (except for iTunes purchases which you can potentially download on the second device) - the only apps that I know about are like the ones that you mention i.e. they can only see the content of the Photos app, not Videos

HT1657 How do I transfer rented movies from iPad to Apple TV

Although my Apple TV sees all my iTunes so previously purchased and I am able to download movies and other product from ITunes, the Apple TV is requesting. Three or four digit security code ending in 1359
I do not have any such code
Please help
What do I need to do to seamlessly rent or buy movies on Apple TV????
Regards,
Fernando Calero

The method is exactly the same as in previous versions of iTunes:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1390
The only difference now is that by default the iPad will appear as a button at the upper-right of iTunes:
Click that all all should then work as per the directions. You can also go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" and iTunes 11 will then look substantially like earlier versions.

Transfer original music from ipad to computer?

I created a original song a few years ago put it in itunes on computer and synced it to my ipad. That computer and the original music are gone. The only place it exists is on my ipad. How do i get it back to my computer. I have not "synced" my music since it will erase my ipad tunes and replace it with the library on my new computer which does not have the original song.

You will need a third-party computer app to move the song. One example of these Apps is Senuti (MAC).others are available for the PC.
