How to put movies from iMac to iPad and use iMovie
I have enjoyed using iMovie on the Mac to create "Trailers" of my family movies. I purchased iMovie for iPad and there are some new interesting "Trailers", different from the ones on the Mac. So I'd like to try them out.
But I cannot figure out how to move .MOV files onto an iPad. (Ironic, I know). Here are the things I've tried.
1. I tried a straight drag and drop when the iPad was connected, from Finder window to iPad on the Device. No go.
2. I tried to create an iTunes playlist of the movie, which works fine on iTunes on the Mac. but
a. It won't show up on iTunes on the iPad, even after making sure it was supposed to be synced and checked
b. It won't show up in iMovie on the iPad
3. I tried to put it into iPhoto on the Mac, and made an 'album' with it. It won't show up on the iPad even after careful syncing.
As a test, i recorded a few seconds of video on the iPad, and of course it works fine. But the videos I am interested in turning into Trailers are movies I have already recorded of my family. "Gee, Wally, isn't there a way to do this?"
Is there any way to put a video from iMac to iPad?
