- Starting with a Mac with Snow Leopard installed.
- Open a flash video in the pre-installed media viewer, Quicktime 10.
- From the main Quicktime menu, Share->iTunes.
- The list of choices is based upon the quality of the input video. If choices are grayed out, it is because the video resolution of the source is too low to support the format.
Thats it! Next time an iPod, iPhone, or iPad is connected, synchronization with iTunes pushes the video onto the device.
Flash Video to iTunes Conversion
Notes
iPhone size is the best choice for the iPad.
"AppleTV" sized video transfers from iTunes and plays on the iPad. But TV format requires far more storage space, with little or no improvement in video quality.
"Computer" sized video will not transfer from iTunes to the iPad.
iPod size is best for iPad
