Hello community,
I recently bought a movie on the iTunes Store, in HD version, but I have a 16 GB iPad 2 and I would keep some space on it, so I downloaded the SD version too, but iTunes 11 doesn't offer to put the SD version on my iPad 2, it offers only the HD version... How I can put the SD version ? What's the way ?
Thank's for your answers, sorry for my english (I'm French).

Hey FlorentP75,
I found the following information about syncing SD versions to your iPad:
By default, when syncing video to iPad, iTunes will sync the HD version to iPad when available. You can only sync HD content purchased in 1080p to iPad (3rd generation). You need to download the 720p or SD version from iTunes in the Cloud to sync iPad 2 or earlier, iPhone 4S or earlier, iPod touch (4th generation or earlier), and iPod. Alternatively, you can download the videos directly to your device using iTunes in the Cloud.
If you prefer to sync SD video content to iPad:
- With iPad connected to your computer, select it on the left side of the iTunes window.
- Click the Summary Tab.
- Scroll down to the Options section and select the checkbox for "Prefer standard definition videos."
- Now when you sync videos to iPad, only SD versions will be synced.
To undo your change, simply repeat the above steps and uncheck the box next to "Prefer standard definition videos."
