Transfering iPhone movies to iTunes on my PC
I bought a movie through iTunes via my iPhone. Now, I want to put the movie onto my computer and into iTunes. When I have my iPhone connected to my PC and hit the "Sync Movies" check box in the movies tab, a box appears and says, "Are you sure you want to sync movies? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPhone will be removed and replaced with movies from your iTunes library."
I don't want the movies on my iPhone to be replaced. I want them to be transferred to my iTunes Library on my PC. If I allow the snyc, will the movies I purchased on my iPhone be deleted before I can get them onto my pc?
Just called in Apple Care for the same issue. All you need to do is go to the itunes file scroll down to the bottom where you will see the cammand Transfer purchases from " insert your name"iphone. It will automaticly download your purcases to itunes and place it under Purchases,it will also place the movies and shows in the apropriate folders in itunes. In addition there will also be an additional folder under Store in itunes that will list the purchases under the device it was puchased under for example Purchased on Pinkiesipone

How do I get iPhone movies into iTunes' movie menu in the sidebar?
I've tried to get iPhone movies into iTunes, but they turn into .MOV files and won't transfer!
I've tried exporting iPhone movie files from iPhoto into iTunes shared movie files (Movies folder), but
they don't appear in the iTunes movie list! They don't appear in the iPad video app either!
What's the story! . . . . thanks fAllan, I tried all you suggested. I ended up with 'IMG' files in the source list, and they won't play. When double clicked they try to open for a blink, then back to the list.
When exporting the iPhone video from iPhoto, what did you fill out in the dialogue box. All I saw were selections referring to photos (jpeg, medium, etc.) I didn't see choices for video! Wouldn't it be just as easy to just drag
the video from the iPhoto thumbnails to the desktop? Am I missing something here?
Thanks again -
I am trying to store movies on sd card from traveling. I want to play movie from camera card reader.i transferred the movie to sd card, I change the name to DSCF... and put in new folder created by my camera. the movie loads to ipad just fine but the ipad wont open it. what am I missing or it it not possible?
In THEORY, you can. However there are a lot of hoops to jump through. And the last time I played with it was when my device was running iOS7.
You put the movie file on an SD card. Follow the naming convention. Give it a file name of 8 characters. Put it in a folder named DCIM.
You can't watch the movie off the SD card. You have to import the movie onto your device (so you need plenty of free room) watch then delete.
What you may be running into is if those movies were downloaded from iTunes or some other source they may have digital rights management on them prohibiting you moving them around and watching them like you're trying to do. -
Sync iPhone movie with iTunes and Apple TV
What is the correct way to get a movie taken with my iPhone to iTunes and Apple TV. The movie was copied to iPhoto, but cannot get it onto iTunes in the movie list and into Apple TV. Thanks.
yes, me too. I went to play my stuff tonight - and blam, Apple TV icon is not there. Nothing I do brings it back. Reset everything - turn it all off and on. Nada. This is really annoying.

Transferring iphone data to itunes on new pc when old pc is dead
HELP!!
Old laptop died and all my info, music, pics etc is saved on my iphone 3GS.
I have icloud, but that only stores purchased content, not anything manually put on from cd's, audio files.
How do I update the itunes on the new laptop with all the content from my iphone?
Without losing my pictures, music that I took ages loading from cd's etc..
I don't want to pay loads for a program that might work.
Apple must have a way of doing this in this modern time of age?
All I want to do is update itunes with my iphone content, not share it with outside programs.
PLEASE HELPSee Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for tools to extract your media.

Did you already try to disable the camera notification? iPhone and iPod touch: Disabling digital camera notification in Windows XP
If this does not help, try to remove all Apple related software and reinstall iTunes again: Removing iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP -
I transferred a movie from a digital copy to iTunes and tapped Hide by mistake in the Downloads. How do I unhide the movie? It said to do this in account info, how do I do this on the iPhone or computer?
The movie is from iTunes. You would think that a download from iTunes to a MacBook could be watched on an HDTV using Apple TV without any headaches bit this does not appear to be the case.

How to move a downloaded movie from itunes to iphone
How do I transfer a purchased movie downloaded to my library in iturnes to both my iphone and my ipad? The movie shows up in the library movie category but I can't seem to get it to the iphone.
I have a similar problem. I purchased a movie on an ipod, and transfered it to my itunes library on my Mac. The movie in itunes cannot be dragged into my iphone (even though I'm set on manual sync), it doesn't even show up as available to be synched by checking the box next to it, and yet it plays just fine in itunes on my Mac. Additionally there is no option to "create ipod or iphone version", which makes sense because it should already be an ipod/iphone version. Please help, thanks!

Transfer an iTunes rented movie from my iPhone 5 to iTunes or iPad?
How do I Transfer an iTunes rented movie from my iPhone 5 to iTunes or iPad?
It says
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

I download a movie in my iPhone 5 from iTunes but after finish downloading I can't open

I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Can I play my rental on more than one device?
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV).

You can delete the movie prior to the expiration date if you want to make more space on your hard drive, iPod, iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV. However, the movie will automatically disappear from your iTunes library 24 (or 48) hours after you've begun viewing it.
What happens to my rented movie if don't watch it?
If you don't watch your rented movie, it will expire in 30 days and disappear from your iTunes library. You will need to rent it again in order to watch it.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Does anyone know when Apple is going to fix the bug with transfering voice memos from the IPhone 4 to itunes on a computer. I waisted a lot of time trying to figure out why it was not working. Then I read some comments about other people having the same issues.
cheers!Anyone that did know would be bound by non-dosclosure agreement not to say.
Unless Apple announces, which they very rarely do, there is no way to know what Apple will do in the future or when they will do it.
Sorry. -
IPhone movie sync changed in iTunes
Earlier, itunes hung and had to be forced down at activity monitor.
It couldn't see iPhone attached as well.
Earlier I converted short clips of Divx to .m4v / which are Mpeg-4.
Send them to iTunes, then it's needed to covert to iPhone.
That process seemed to go Ok, Sorta,,,, there was a beach ball involved at times.
Gees, if it beach ball's with this machine, what's it like for a single processor machine.
When it was time to sync these clips to iPhone, iPhone did not reply as usual, and iTunes hung solid. But I was able to select all clips wanted at will just after these clips converted.
Maybe I should have selected one at a time, vs 6.
Now do restart complete, make copies of Apple shut down reports and send those off.
Start iTunes. attach iPhone, go to movies.
Now, I can't select anything in the movie list or get the list to even move.
The box is unchecked at Sync Movies.
I don't recall what the status was prior, if the box was checked or not.
But if you now try to check the box, then this warning comes up.
What the heck is the right thing to do here?
I don't know if I want to let it do what it intends to.
It sounds to intense.
This is the warning you get/
Are you sure you want to sync movies?
All existing songs, movies and Tv shows on the iPhone will be removed and replaced with movies from your iTune library.
The iPhone still has the video's from before, and during the present attempted sync are left in place.Philscbx wrote:

The iPhone still has the video's inplace from before, and They were not removed during a current sync even though the movie sync box was unchecked.
* I gave up waiting for any advice, So I grabbed the evil beast by the horns, and let it do what it warned about.
I was now able to check the MOVIE SYNC box, and now able to scroll through the movie list that was locked out and select the converted to iPhone movies I wanted.
The Sync completed, and it did remove my playlist of tunes.
So I'll have to redo that part.
+*This is totally ridiculous to wipe out 500 tunes.*+
Ay least the movies of F1 racing converted look great on the iPhone.
I was ready to give up and go back to the set that worked flawless, the 6 month old BB Curve.

Purchased movie from Itunes wont sync with Iphone but rental movie will????
I purchased a movie from Itunes and it shows up in my library movies but it wont sync with my iphone. Before I bought the movie i rented a movie to make sure it works and I liked the format so I know that it can auto sync with the iphone. In they Sync section of Itunes under videos it only has 2 headings. Rental movies and TV shows. There is no option for Movies at all so it does not even come up to transfer it over to the phone like with the rental.
I have solved the problem temporarily but would love help on a proper fix. If I check the box manual merge music and videos on the summary page I can get the movie over by dragging it from the library and dropping it into the phone but it still does not show up under the video tab but is on the phone. This then deletes all my music and I have to manually sync that as well.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using a mac book with an iphone and a move in Itunes that I actually paid for - from itunes. I just cant figure it!
NatalieI think the layout in sync could be improved for movies perhaps putting Purchased Movies right after Rental Movies. When I am on that tab, Rental Movies (I have none and it tells me so) and then TV shows are visible on the screen with lots of blank space under. I had to scroll down to find the movie sync option (which may seem pretty obvious - but with all the white space after TV shows, I didn't notice that the scroll bar had room to scroll further). Yes, I feel a little stupid (and grateful to you for making the solution so obvious), but I do think the tab layout contributed to my ineptness.
