I have a lot of TV shows recorded from TV by TiVo box. I want my Tivo to download on my new iPad 3 so I can watch when away for a road trip? If I have a movie saved onto my computer (say from TiVo transfer to my hard drive) can I then drag and drop that into iTunes and then transfer that onto the iPad 3?
You will need to convert the .tivo files to a compatible format such as .mp4. There are many programs that can do this, such as Tivo Converter.
