Videos from iTunes to iPad disappear, only iCloud download

The problem that I am having is that after I have synced TV episodes that I have purchased and downloaded from iTunes to my iPad, the episodes later are not on the iPad, and instead require downloading from the cloud again to watch.  This is a problem when I am traveling outside the US.  I have tried all I can think of:  While connected to iTunes, deleting the episodes and then resyncing them.  The episodes are on my iPad, ready to go.  Then a few days later, when I'm on a plane or overseas, the episodes aren't there, requiring download again from the cloud, which isn't possible in these locations.  I have even tried to copy these episodes into another iPad app to view them, but the restrictions on the iTunes videos means they aren't viewable even though they are on the iPad.  Why are the episodes removing themselves from my iPad, and how can I keep them there and available?  Thanks!

Not to worry >>> i have found the issue an solved the problem

  • Rented video from iTunes for iPad but video is missing?

    Rented video from iTunes for iPad but video is missing? Can anyone help

    You're sure that it completely downloaded? There may be a downloads button at the bottom on the right side of the iTunes Store app if the movie did not finish downloading.
    Did you look in there to make sure that it fully downloaded?
    You can also search for it. Swipe down from the middle of the home screen to get to the search field at the top of the screen. Type in the name of the movie and see if it shows up. If it appears, you can tap on it and it will begin to play but that will also start the 24 or 48 hour timer that you get to watch a rental once you start it.
    If you are not ready to watch the movie, don't tap on it. But if it shows up in the search, you know it's on the iPad so the next thing that I would do is reset the iPad and then look again in the videos app.
    Reset 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Cannot synch mp4 videos from itunes to iPad with current verion of iOS 6

    mp4 videos will not transfer from itunes to ipad 3 with the latest iOS6. 

    UPDATE:  I backed up my phone, wiped it (Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase All Content and Settings), & then restored it through iTunes.  For whatever reason, that seems to have fixed the problem.  Movies now sync to my phone like they used to.
    That process seems to have corrected 1 or 2 other minor issues, including one where iTunes was 'syncing artwork' for a long time on every sync.

  • Problems transferring video from iTunes to iPad

    Can anyone help with transferring video from iTunes across to an iPad. This has worked smoothly in the past but now nothing seems to transfer across. Within iTunes on my computer, I've opened the iPad and chosen a new movie to transfer (ticking the box adjacent to the film). There apperas to be plenty of space left on the iPad (currently 3.98GB) .Then I've clicked Sync. At the top of the iTunes window, the iPad is shown as syncing (very quickly) but when I check on the ipad, the movie hasn't transferred.
    Next, I've disconneceted the iPad from iTunes and restarted it - I've also tried restarting within iTunes - then reconnected to my computer and tried a fresh Sync. Same problem; the movie won't transfer. On the list of movies shown in iTunes as being on my iPad, the new movie shows up (albeit in grey - so not loaded). As it's not displaying in videos on the iPad, I can't delete it to start afresh. 
    Any suggestions welcome....

    Thanks for the link. As noted I've managed the transfer on many occasions before, but for some reason the iPad and iTunes no longer feel like syncing. I did finally manage the transfer by restarting the computer (as well as the iPad) then trying to Sync the iPad. It shouldn't be such an issue however!
    With regard to the home sharing, point taken but my wifi doesn't reach the room where I want to watch the movie on the iPad. This option doesn't work for me...

  • How to put videos from itunes on ipad

    It's iTunes on your computer that needs to be updated.

  • TS3274 How do I remove hundred of photos and videos from my new iPad mini, that were downloaded via my iMac from an earlier iPad2 backup?

    When restoring my old iPad2 (32G) via itunes on my iMac, thousands of pictures/videos from the last 2 years were downloaded along with apps and mail. The new mini is the 16G version and I am eating up memory with all these photos and videos. Selecting the photos in the iPad mini wont let me put them into trash.
    How can I get rid of all these other albums and revert to just storing photos in my camera roll?

    You have to connect the iPad to the Mac and deselect the photos in the Photos tab of iTunes and follow that with a sync in order to remove the photos.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
    Select your iPad from Devices in the upper right or in the left sidebar of iTunes, if the sidebar is enabled.
    Click on the Photos tab in the iTunes window on the right.
    Uncheck all of the albums and videos that you want to remove under the Sync Photos from heading.
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
    If you want to remove all photos, uncheck the "Sync Photos From" heading and then click on Apply. If you can't see the sidebar, go to View>Show sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top.

  • How is it possible to cancel (not suspend) a video download from iTunes Store (iPad under iOs 6)? (I do not have sufficient storage space on my iPad)

    Hi,
    I am facing the following difficulty with my iPad (model MD369NF/A) under iOs 6.1.3.
    I have bought 2 videos on iTunes Store, but I do not succeed in downloading them: an error message mentions that iPas does not have enough storage capacity.
    As a matter of face, when I look at the way the storage is used, I find “Others” for around 10 Go (is there some king of reserved space for the downloading of videos from iTunes Store?), and only a very small number of Mo available.
    I would simply like to cancel the downloading of the 2 videos, and hope that it would free the "Others" storage space (in the hypothesis that "Others" is space reserved for videos once downloaded), but I do not manage to do it. I can suspend the downloading, but I do not see how to cancel it.
    Would you have a solution to propose ?
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Nicolas

    Hey Nicolas36,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The following article outlines issues with free space, capacity, and a large amount of "other" space. You'll want to connect your iPad to your computer with iTunes to follow the steps:
    iOS: 'Not enough free space' alert when trying to sync
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1503
    One symptom of this issue will be displayed in iTunes where the Capacity indicator for the iOS device will report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the device. To resolve this issue:
    - Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    - Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    - Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    - Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

I have gone to the advanced tab and clicked on the CHECK FOR PURCHASES...but yet it will still not download. this problem has been occuring since last thursday. What can i do to solve this problem?

    Your itunes is running, so I doubt this has anything to do with it. Does your Qtime run too?

  • My ipad streaming purchased video from itunes stops every few seconds.  does not happen with any other streaming video service.

    my ipad streaming purchased video from itunes stops every few seconds.  This does not happen with any other streaming video service.  I have restarted and rebooted already. 

    I've tried both things, but video still stutters.. Have also tried removing profile, and complete reinstall of firefox.
    I'm on 24 Mbit cable and the only user atm. IE and Chrome seems to work without stuttering.
    I've having this stuttering every ~5th second, like a small "1/4 sec buffering".

  • HT203167 i bought anastacia's "cowboy's & kisses" video from iTunes and now has disappeared off my music library! where did it go?-i paid good money for it!

    i bought anastacia's "cowboy's & kisses" video from itunes and now it is gone, erased from my music library! it's not on the imac, or my ipad! where is it? i paid good money for it! these are tough times i want it back! i'm not going to pay for it again!

    You shouldn't have to pay again.   Log into iTunes with the same detail you used to purchase the original music and you should be able to download it again.
    If you meet a further problem go to ... http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express lane followed by iTunes > iTunes store.
