For Apple fans, it is undisputed that iPad tablets are one of the best idevices to enjoy high quality music and various videos movies, no matter which iPad model you have, syncing all films from computer to any iPad is our constant pursuit. In this article we will explain here how to copy video files from your Windows PC or laptop to your iPad without being converted into a special format which the iPad can play. Plus, we’ll also show you how you can download films and TV shows without iTunes at all, so you can watch them whenever you want, wherever you are – even if you have no internet connection. (See original story)

How to put films on an iPad: Videos app or a third-party app

If you sync movies or TV shows stored in your iTunes library, they”ll appear in the native Videos app on your iPad. This is a perfectly good way of doing things, but if your video isn”t in a format that iTunes can play, you can”t add it to the library, nor sync it with your iPad. Also, you can only use one computer to sync iPad. If you try to sync videos from another computer running iTunes, you”ll get a warning that all your media will be deleted first.

The good news is that there are lots of apps available in the App Store on your iPad which can play videos and allow you to import files from any computer running iTunes. Most don”t require you to first convert the video into a format the iPad can play natively (i.e. MP4). Instead, you can play pretty much anything you like, including AVI, DIVX, MKV and more.

For example, free VLC player is a nice choice. Unfortunately, many such apps have had to remove codecs following legal requests and no longer support surround-sound audio (AC-3 and others). This means that a video file with this audio format will play silently: you would have to convert your video in a suitable application to downmix the surround soudn to a stereo soundtrack first.

One free app which has excellent reviews at the moment is PlayerXtreme Media Player by PentaLoop. This lets you transfer videos by Wi-Fi, but for speed and reliability we”ll be using a USB cable for this guide. Obviously, install whichever app you”re going to use before following the guide below.

Step 1. Connect your iPad to a computer with a recent version of iTunes (try to use the latest version if possible). iTunes should launch automatically and your iPad will show up on the left-hand side

Step 2. Click on the icon representing your iPad and then click on Apps in the menu on the left. Scroll down until you see the File Sharing section.

Step 3. Scroll down the list if necessary and click on the appropriate video app, in this case we”ll choose PlayerXtreme. On the right is a list of the files: it”s currently blank as we haven”t yet copied any videos.

Step 4. Click the Add File… button and navigate to the video you want to put on your iPad. Select one or more and click Open at the bottom of the dialog box. Don”t forget to select any subtitle files which go with the videos.

The films will start copying to your iPad – a progress bar is shown in the pane at the top of iTunes.

Once they”re transferred, you can disconnect your iPad, launch PlayerXtreme (or whichever video playback app you”re using) and the videos will be there, ready to watch.

Bear in mind that playing video formats which aren”t natively supported by iOS will use up the battery faster unless the app can use hardware acceleration (which PlayerXtreme can).

How to put films on an iPad: Use a video downloader app

If you don”t want to have to connect your iPad to a computer running iTunes, there are other ways to get films onto your iPad. One is to install a video downloader app, such as Video Downloader Lite. Using the app”s built-in web browser you can head to YouTube or another video streaming site and find a video you want to watch.

When it starts playing, a pop-up window should appear giving you the option to download or save the video. You might have to type in a name for it, or it might automatically take the name from the web page.

Here is a separate tutorial on downloading YouTube videos to an iPad with step-by-step instructions.

All you need to download videos is a free app from the App Store.

1. Launch the App Store on your iPad and search for Video Downloader Super Lite. There are both free and paid-for versions. Install the free version.

2. Once that’s done, launch the app – its icon is easy to spot as it’s an orange arrow pointing downwards. Admittedly, it’s not the prettiest app around, and is riddled with ads. However, you’ll learn to avoid them.

3. The app should open on the Browse tab, and should default to the YouTube website. To search for a video, tap the magnifying glass icon on the right-hand side and type in your search terms.

4. When you see a video you like, tap it and it will automatically buffer and play. A pop-up box should offer a red button marked ‘Save to memory’. Tap this to download the video.

You can tap on the Downloads tab to check on the downloading progress, and also access videos once they’re downloaded. Videos can only be watched within the app – they’re not accessible from the iPad’s standard Videos app.

How to put films on an iPad: catch-up TV

BBC iPlayer and the All 4 app (Chanel 4) both allow you to download TV shows (including films) to your iPad. iPlayer now gives you 30 days to watch stuff you download, while with All 4 it depends on when the show was broadcast as to how long you have before the download expires. Neither ITV Player nor Demand 5 allow you to download shows.

How to put films on an iPad: Buy or rent from iTunes, Google Play Movies and TV or another service

If you launch the iTunes store on your iPad, then tap on Films at the bottom, you”ll find a great selection of the latest movies available to rent or buy. Renting a new film costs £3.49 in standard definition or £4.49 in HD. Classic films are a pound cheaper. Buying one to watch repeatedly whenever you want costs £9.99 or £13.99 depending on the movie.

• Read Rent or Buy Movies From iTunes | iTunes vs Google Play | Rent a Movie in iTunes 12

Although you can stream the films immediately, a bought or rented film will also be downloaded to your iPad so you can watch it without an internet connection.

Finally, if you prefer to stick with the built-in Videos app and want to put films from your computer onto your iPad, you”ll need to use the computer you use to sync and backup your iPad.

When your iPad appears at the top of iTunes (after connecting it with a USB cable or using Wi-Fi sync), click on the Films tab and you will see a list of all the films you”ve imported into your iTunes library. Bear in mind that they may appear in the TV Programmes tab if they”ve been incorrectly tagged. This is also true of TV Shows which are wrongly tagged as Films.

Tick the Sync Films box, then tick the films you want to add to your iPad from the list. Alternatively, tick the box next to “Automatically include all films”, and use the drop-down menu to choose an option from the list such as “all unwatched”.

You can install the Google Play Movies and TV app if you prefer and buy or rent videos that way. Unfortunately, Netflix and Amazon”s streaming video services don”t let you downloadcontent to watch offline… yet.

Created a new Apple ID and try to transfer your own iTunes movies to other account, only to find that your songs, playlists, purchased movies, etc. are stuck in iTunes Library as below?

Q: My daughter has been purchasing iTunes content using my Apple ID (account) for many years. I now have 5 PCs for myself and she has a new laptop. This puts us over the 5 authorized computer limit. I have set up a new, separate apple ID (Account) for her to purchase new iTunes movies. I would like to transfer the music that she has purchased under my account to her new account so I can de-authorize her computer from my account. But I got error messages now and then. Is there a way to transfer the Apple ID (Ownership) of the iTunes content to another Apple ID (Account)?

What a pity! As we all know, we can buy movies, TV shows, songs and eBooks from iTunes with an Apple ID provided. One single Apple ID is permitted to be tied with 5 computers only. (Read Comparison: iTunes HD vs SD Movies) Since movies bought or rented from iTunes movie store are strictly protected by Apple’s Fariplay DRM facilities, to  transfer iTunes rentals and purchases to another Apple ID, you need firstly remove the DRM protection from those videos with a third-party iTunes DRM removal tool.

Here I would like to recommend Pavtube ChewTune (Read reviews) which is a smart and professional DRM recorder and converter which can assist you bypass DRM from both iTunes purchases and rentals thus to enable you move all your iTunes library to another account for sharing freely. Besides, you can backup iTunes videos to external hard drive, play with any video player and even copy to any android or windows tablets for watching without restrictions.

      (Click here for Mac OS X 10.5)

Firs Instructions:

1. Make sure that your computer is authorized for source videos, that is to say you can play the source iTunes movies in iTunes.

2. Allow the audio driver installed during the Pavtube ChewTune installation. 

3. Close iTunes before running Pavtube DRM Removal Converter when converting iTunes M4V movies.

4. It would take as long as the source movie length for the whole DRM video recording process since Pavtube ChewTune records source DRM videos in 1:1 video and audio quality.

Steps to move and share iTunes movies to other accounts

Step 1: Add iTunes movies to the software. After installing, Launch ChewTune and import your iTunes files (including the copy-protected music, movies, TV shows) to the program. Batch conversion is supported so that you can add multiple files to convert at a time. 

Step 2: Select output format. Click “Format” bar and move mouse to “Common Video” column, you can easily find the profile of “H.264 Video(*.mp4)” which is accepted by most video players and mobile devices. If you like, you can click “Settings” to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. as you wish. 

Step 3: Start the conversion. After above steps, just hit the “Convert” icon to start converting iTunes M4V videos to MP4 videos. Once the process completes, just log in your iTunes account and import the converted DRM-free videos to iTunes Player for watching and sharing with family members.

In fact, there are other different ways to transfer iTunes Movies to Another Apple ID, but the procedure is somewhat complex, here lists 4 ways of them:

1. Use iTunes Home Sharing

To enable it, select Home Sharing from the left sidebar within iTunes, and enter your Apple ID. Repeat this process on all computers that are to participate in the Home Sharing, all with the same Apple ID. You can add up to five computers this way. Once you’re in a home sharing session, you can simply drag and drop songs from one iTunes library to the other, which is what you’ll want to do to copy your purchases between computers.

2. Copy The Files Using External Media

Your iTunes library is located in User > Music > iTunes > iTunes Media > Music, where your music is usually organised in an artist > album hierarchy. You can also quickly locate a singular song from within iTunes by right-clicking it and selecting Show in Finder.

Copy your purchases to your external media and, after inserting it in the target computer, simply select the whole lot and drag them onto the iTunes application window or icon. This will add all those songs you had selected to that iTunes library.

3. Share The Files Over a Local Network

Copying a large amount of files over your home network is likely to be slower than using a flash drive, but it’s less of a hassle to set up. 

Every user on a network with AirDrop selected in Finder are able to see one another. Sharing files from one computer to another then becomes as simple as dragging and dropping your files on the other computer’s icon.

4. Use An iOS Device & iTunes

Finally, if you have an iPhone, or other iOS device that’s been synced with your music library, there’s an even simpler way to move your media between different computers. After authorising the other computer with your Apple ID, plug in your iOS device.

A pop-up will appear — pictured above — which you can use to erase and sync your iOS device with that computer (not what you’re looking to do), but also to transfer your purchases. Choosing the latter option will copy your purchases to that computer, easy as that.

Note: Keep in mind that the files copied this way are still DRM-protected. However, you can authorise up to five computers to manage and enjoy your iTunes Store purchases thereon. This can be done manually by entering your Apple ID in iTunes’ Store -> Authorize this Computer.
