Hello there ,

I just got an iPad yesterday people and i am so excited about it :) . need some help from experts to fully maximize my usage of the iPad . here the following questions and i am hoping someone can help me

1- I knew that by itunes you can copy videos and movies (Ipad extensions) direct to my iPad but here is my question , i download lots of Movies and TV series (torrents) on my PC and external hard , mostly the extension is .avi , can i copy these movies to my iPad without converting and can i use subtitles during watching a movie ?

2- second i downloaded lots of reading material to use on my new device , (Pdfs , other book extensions and word files ) unfortunately i don't know how to copy these files to iPad

3-Any new help guides or advises for new apps or something would be really appreciated

Thanks alot :)
Ashraf

This is piracy, this is illegal, this will for sure not be answered here.

Another alternative option for question #2 is to use Dropbox. That's how I got a lot of my PDFs onto my iPad. Works like a charm.

part wrong...

For all your legally bought and torrented movies and series you will need to find a converter - search is your friend also here on the forum, there are a couple of threads about it.
