Buy or rent videos from the iTunes Store. Tap Store in the Videos app, or open the iTunes Store
app on iPad, then tap Movies or TV Shows. The iTunes Store is not available in all areas. See
Chapter 22, iTunes Store, on page 113.
Transfer videos from your computer. Connect iPad, then sync videos from iTunes on your
computer. See Sync with iTunes on page 19.
Stream videos from your computer. Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer. Then,
on iPad, go to Settings > Videos and enter the Apple ID and password you use for Home Sharing
on your computer. Then open Videos on iPad, and tap Shared at the top of the list of videos.
Convert a video for iPad. If you try to sync a video from iTunes and a message says the video
can’t play on iPad, try converting the video. Select the video in iTunes on your computer, then
choose File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version. Then sync the converted
video to iPad.
Delete a video. Tap Edit in the upper right of your collection, then tap on the video thumbnail.
If you don’t see the Edit button, look for on your video thumbnails—those videos haven’t
been downloaded to iPad, so you can’t delete them. To delete an individual episode of a series,
tap the series, then swipe left on the episode in the Episodes list.
Deleting a video (other than a rented movie) from iPad doesn’t delete it from the iTunes library
on your computer or from your purchased videos in iCloud, and you can sync the video or
download it to iPad again later. If you don’t want to sync a deleted video back to iPad, set iTunes
to not sync the video. See Sync with iTunes on page 19.
Important:If you delete a rented movie from iPad, it’s deleted permanently and cannot be
transferred back to your computer.
