Well, hi all!!!!!

I just bought the new IPad yesterday and I'd like to load some movies that I have already download in my pc. How can I do this? They must be in mp4 format as I already know... Is that right?
But how exactly cal I load them on the iPad????

Thanks in advance!!!!

Here is the most common method.

1. Import your movies into iTunes on your PC.
2. Plug your iPad into your PC.
3. Select the iPad on the left-hand column then go to the Movie tab and check the Sync Movie box and select the movies you want to sync.
4. Hit the sync
5. On the iPad, open the Video app and play your movies!

Mp4 should work. They will import into iTunes without an issue, but if the specs are off, they may not be able to sync to the iPad. I do not have the link handy for the exact specs for mp4 for the iPad.

If you have to convert from an alternate format, you can use a program like Handbrake and it will have presets for various idevices
