Stream videos from your computer to iPad. 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 to work with 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 and choose File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version. Then sync the
converted video to iPad.
Delete a video from iPad. 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 18.

Important:

If you delete a rented movie from iPad, it’s deleted permanently and cannot be

transferred back to your computer.
