What type of movies and tv shows can I watch on the iPad?

What type of movies and tv shows can be watched on the iPad without having to spend money purchasing from iTunes. I'm guessing Netflix streaming is available, but what other types. Does Tivo tranfer work, any others? Thanks

    Does anybody know if the ipad air 1 is using yosemite or something different? I don't know what type of safari i should install because it disappeared from the ipad. Thanks!

    YYosemite is a Mac OS and it doesn't run on an iPad. You cannot delete or install Safari on the iPad. It is on your device somewhere.
    Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
    Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • I cannot connect to Home Sharing on iTunes, so that I can send movies and TV shows to another computer.  The other "library" does not come up in the box on the upper right side of the iTunes screen.  I tried disconnecting each computer from Home Sharing.

    I cannot connet to Home Sharing on iTunes, so that I can send movies and TV shows to another computer.  I cannot find the name of the other computer in the "Library" box on the upper right side of the iTunes screen.  Do I need to have the other computer connected to the Cloud?

    Mkae sure you have enabled Home Sharing using the same AppleID on both computers.

  • Certain movies and TV shows won't sync with my iPad 2

    I a unable to sync certain Movies and TV Shows from iTunes to my iPad 2.
    Some iTunes Digital Copies and TV Shows downloaded from iTunes sync perfectly well.
    However, when I attempt to sync my iTunes Digital Copy of Rise of the Planet of the Apes, or the two TV shows given away in the latest 12 Days of Christmas promotion, I get the message "XXX was not copied to the iPad because you are not authorized for it on this computer."
    They all play fine on my iMac. Both the iPad and the iMac are signed in with the same iTunes account.
    I have tried deauthorizing and re-authorizing my iMac, without success. The same message appears when I try to manually manage music and videos.
    Any ideas why these files in particular will not sync? Many Thanks.
    iPad 2 (iOS 5.0.1) and latest iTunes (10.5.2) on Intel Core i7 iMac (OS X 10.6.8)

    Check out this thread...basically, changing the extension from .m4v to .mp4 allowed me to move a TV Show in iTunes onto my iphone4.

  • I have a mid 2011 macbook and i want to upgrade my RAM my laptop is currently crashed so i have to open it up to change the hard drive so i figured why not add the RAM. I need to know what type of RAM and if i can put in 2 matching 4gb RAM cards into it

    Open your computer's user manual which has a section on adding Memory. I believe it should be:
    2 - 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMMs.

  • My rented movies don't show up after watching (within the 24 hour window) them in Apple TV

    I have updated my Apple TV. Since then I'm unable to retrieve rented movies after watch parts of them in the 24 hour viewing window. Anyone have any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
    Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
    Also check your payment details, make sure your details are exactly how they appear on your credit card statement, you might also try changing some of those details, saving them and changing them back again.
    You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
    Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.
    At this point in time, I’m wondering if this could be related to (but not restricted to) the new feature that allows others to come into your home and use your Apple TV to download and play their content on your Apple TV without logging into their account on your Apple TV. The Terms of Use for iTunes Store content have always been to require you to only purchase and play the content from the store in the location where you live and to use a credit card registered in that location. Previously Apple seem to have been somewhat lenient on enforcing such restrictions, perhaps now they are not. However I don’t really have any evidence to support this suggestion, except that changes made to accounts in these areas do appear to be helping many.
    If you are successful in resolving your problem, perhaps you would let us know exactly which action resolved the problem for you. If you are having this problem to begin with, can you also tell us your location.

  • What types of movie files are accepted on the ipad2?

    I am trying to trsnsfer movies to my itunes in order to transfer them onto my ipad2.
    But when I look for the movies on my itunes I don't see any listed.
    What types of movie file formats are accepted to transfer to the ipad2?

    The Videos app supports these formats (from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/) :
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    If you can't get them into your computer's iTunes then there are programs such as Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr) which might be able to convert them. If you can get them into your computer's iTunes but they then won't sync to the iPad, then you could try doing Advanced > Create iPad Version and see if that version syncs over.

  • Itunes 7.1 deleted all movies and tv shows from ipod!

    Just updated Itunes to 7.1 - and found out too late that both movies and tv shows were suddenly unchecked for the sync. I've always had them on auto sync before this and did not change any settings.
    So when I synched for the first time with 7.1, I lost my 20gb of videos from the ipod (60gb). Extremely annoying.
    They're still in the library but it will take hours to get them back to the ipod.
    Anybody else got this? Is this a bug on 7.1 or did I just do something wrong?

  • What is a "browser redirect" ? Why can't I access the music store?

    Hi,
    I just posted a message about not being able to access the music store. I said reconnect when I mean redirect.
    Does anyone know what's going on and why I can't I access the music store? I was able to get on 3 days ago. Thanks to all who can tell me something.
    This is REALLY starting to irritate me.

    I am also becoming very frustrated. I am new to this forum but after spending the better part of my day off trying to figure out how to make this work I have hit the wall. It strikes me that this should be much easier to access considering that we are looking to spend money. Does apple not want my money? I have tried everything that was recommended in all the sites I have been directed to, to no avail. I am not a computer whiz, so I need specific and simple answers as to how to fix this. I have never been able to access the music store, and each time I try I get the white screen, and a perpetual connection bar. I then have to close iTunes, and reboot my computer to be able to access it again. HELP ME PLEASE!!!

  • TS2972 I can get my music, movies and tv shows to play through my apple tv, but I cannot see my photo stream on my apple tv.  What can I do to get my photos to show up on the TV?

    I can get my music, movies and tv shows to play through my apple tv, but I cannot see my photo stream on my apple tv.  What can I do to get my photos to show up on the TV?
    I have a mac and wireless internet.

    Because you've got music and movies streaming to your Apple TV, I know you've authorized Home Sharing under the file menu of iTunes.  But under that same iTunes file menu you must also go to the "Home Sharing" pull-down and select "Choose Photos to Share With Apple TV". You can select All photos, or just specific albums. Maybe worth saying again that this is done from iTunes and not iPhoto.
    If you've already done this and still no photos on AppleTV, check to see that your photo file names (previously imported into iPhoto) have valid suffixes (such as photo.jpg).  Without that valid suffix, iPhoto on your Mac will show the photo just fine (courtesy of the hidden Type Code embedded in the photo file), but AppleTV will not.
    Good luck and let me know if either of these worked.

  • ITunes somehow thinks that 2 computers equals 5 and I can't authorize my movies and TV shows because of it.  What should I do?

    I tried authorizing movies and TV shows on my new iMac that I have authorized on one or two computers/devices total, but when I click to authorize, it says that they've already been authorized on 5 computers.  It's quite a bother, and I can't even find how to contact Apple directly to be able to complain to them about their problem.  What should I do?

    It is possible to have mistakenly authorized a computer more than once. To fix that:
    Open iTunes.
    From the Store menu, choose "Deauthorize This Computer…"
    Enter your account name and password.
    Click OK. A message appears reading "This computer has been successfully deauthorized."
    Click OK.
    Repeat steps 2 through 5 above. If you see the same message reading: "This computer has been successfully deauthorized," then your computer was using multiple authorizations.
    Repeat steps 2 through 5 above until you see a message reading "This computer was not authorized. To authorize this computer, play a song or video you have purchased using this account."
    If that does not fix it for you, you can "deauthorize all" your computers. This will solve your problem, but you may only do this once per year.
    Open iTunes on a computer
    From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
    Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
    Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

  • How can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

    how can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

    Yes, you can add your own videos to iTunes, then sync them to your nano, subject to supported max resolution limit and file type.  The specs for the 7th gen nano says (I don't know which nano model you have), Video Format Support
    "H.264 video: 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Baseline, Main, and High-Profile level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 Mbps, 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
    http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/specs.html
    (earlier nanos have lower max resolution limits)
    So, "HD" video is too high resolution, so iTunes will not sync such videos to the iPod (although they play in iTunes).  If you are asking how to set up iTunes to sync videos in general (regardless of source), please post back.

  • I got an iTunes account years ago with an ID and password...them later got a mobile me and password...now I have an iPad and downloaded iCloud and I can't get my movies and tv shows on iPad because different account name and password from my mobile me.

    I can't get my movies and tv shows on iPad now that I have added iCloud. The problem is that my iTunes account has different name and password from my mobile me account.  Can I change my iTunes account name and password so that they will transfer to my iPad with the mobile me / iCloud account? I need to figure out how to make the two accounts one or iCloud has to be able to accept my iTunes account with years of music and movies.

    Hunter of Sock Monsters thanks...I did follow your advise.  I went to the iforgot site and tried answering the secret questions twice.  I got the "wrong answer", so the next time I asked for an email authentication.  I am still waiting. I don't know what the usual time for waiting normally is. I am still waiting for an email reply from three days ago.  I'm not going to hold my breath.  My ipad is out of warranty but I may have to beg for help from support? I'll wait awhile longer.  Maybe there is another thing someone could come up with.  I appreciate your fast reply Hunter.

  • Movies and TV Shows Missing form iPod menu -- what's up with that?

    I purchased my fist movie and TV episode last night to see how well I will like them on my iPod classic. I am connecting to the most up to date version of iTunes on my IBM/Win XP computer.
    I watched the episode (Journeyman's first episode -- missed it on Monday...it's not bad) and was pleased. Then watched Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy -- also enjoyable even at the small size (especially the opening sequence which emulates "home movie" style in a very small frame).
    Near the end of the movie, my iPod battery was giving up the ghost, so I paused the movie and plugged in. After waiting out the "Do not disconnect..." syncing process the main menu finally appeared on the iPod -- but the Movie and TV Shows selections were conspicuously missing from the menu! I have not seen my Movie/TV episode since.
    They are in the iTunes library, obviously, but they simply never show up in the iPod menu. So far I have sync'd a number of times -- the sync settings were originally set by default to sync all songs, podcasts, TV Shows, Movies, Songs, etc... I tried "tweaking" these but to no avail. All syncs result in no Movie or TV Shows on the iPod menu.
    Most recently I tried deleting all material from the iPod and then re-syncing all material back to the iPod (no help) and lastly I tried resetting to factory default settings (which originally seemed to work just fine) still to no avail.
    When I select Settings >> Main Menu ... from the iPod main menu, the configuration screen also does not contain options for Movies or TV Shows.
    It all makes me say "Hmmmm...." and leaves me reluctant to waste money on video media (though thank god my Tiki TV podcasts are still coming through just fine ... no Lala? I don't think so!). Nope, check that! video podcasts are not coming through either. GEEZE!
    Has anyone experienced this before? Again, I've updated all iPod and iTunes software. Nothing "funky" seemed to happen to cause the problem, other than it conincided with plugging my iPod in (which kicks off the blasted sync process -- geeze these settings are a pain...I'd prefer the blasted thing to just sync on demand) >:-( Any help/suggestions would be most appreciated. Without a solution, I'll never be able to keep up with Journeyman!
    Thanks

    I can't remember exactly what I did. I do know that when I started it up, I couldn't find the Setup Assistant on the hard drive,
    No, once a user has been created, you can't run Setup Assistant  (without erasing and reinstalling).
    What do you recommend for fixing this?
    Here's what's happened: 
    When you first start up a Mac and create the first user account, OSX assigns it UID (User ID) #501.  The next one gets #502, etc.  Those UIDs (not the user name) are what control permission to files.
    You can see those numbers via System Prefs > Users & Groups;  click the padlock and enter your Admin password, then select an account and right-click it, and select Advanced Options.  Do not change anything on that window.
    So . . . assume your old iMac had a user 501 with the data you want; it's identified that way on the backups.
    When the Apple Store started up your new Mac, and created their account, it became #501.
    When you used Migration Assistant to transfer the 501 account from the iMac's backups, OSX copied everything there "as is" except it had to change the 501 to 502. 
    The new 502 account has all the right permissions to things now in it's home folder, but the backups belong to user 501.
    Have you added much to the Mac since you did the migration?  Have you done any new backups?  If not, while it's a bit of a hassle, one fix would be to create yet another user account temporarily.  Make it an Admin account.  Log on to it and delete all the other accounts.  Then migrate the accounts from your backups; this time there won't be a conflict, so OSX won't have to change the UUID(s).
    But if you have done new backups, this won't work, since Migration Assistant automatically uses the most recent backup.  There's a way around that, but it's a bit (or more) tedious.
    Clear as mud? 

  • ITunes can't distinguish between movies and TV shows

    Hi,
    How old is iTunes now? How many updates have we been fed with all kinds of new 'features' that are either not that useful or already duplicate functions? Why can iTunes STILL not catalog files correctly?
    I have movies and TV shows all mixed together, some are duplicated and some are just named 'comedy' or some other useless title. I got so fed up with it I spent a rainy day painstakingly renaming and sorting all these files. This was followed by the inevitable long drawn out and slow process of resynching Apple TV, resynching iPhones and basically playing every file labelled 'untitled' or 'unknown' and then identifying and renaming it.
    So I was well-pleased when the latest version of iTunes decided it didn't like my new filing system and has messed it all up again. I now have duplicate files, files incorrectly filed, broken links and right now over 400 'missing' files according to iTunes.
    They're not 'missing'. They're on the same hard drive in the same folders and in the same place they've always been. They've not been renamed, reordered or in anyway changed, yet the wonderful iTunes has decreed things ain't what they should be and changed it all for me.
    I'm not happy. By all means change my files, but not to create the mess you've now left me to sort out.
    What is it with Apple these days? why can't they just leave something that works to function properly. I can find my own 'album cover art', I don't need iTunes to paste the wrong art on the wrong album and mix up all my genres, shows and movies.
    If you want to help, fix that mother of a problem before making it look pretty.
    Thanks,
    Rich
