Transferring Ipad videos (home not purchased) to PC ?

How do i upload my home videos from my ipad to my PC ( windows vista) ? When I transfer my photos from the ipad using Windows photo gallery they all show up but the videos dont or dont play.


I asked in the Apple store and he said to use itunes to go into my ipad and manually transfer the videos across but I cannot see how to do this.


It doesnt seem obvious how to do it - which I find strange as its such a basic thing to want to save your home videos.


Grateful for any help.

iPad, Windows Vista

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.


Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).


Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
