You should convert your video to iTunes format that is the only format iPad supports. I had exactly the same problem when I've got my iPad ;)
Then I found this iPad converter http://soundtaxi.org/any_video_to_ipad_c… You just put the video into the converter and it converts any video format to iPad. Then connect your iPad to computer and copy video to iPad.
It's simple as ****

I use it and it works ok =)

Thank you for your suggestions! This converter works for iPad and video quality is fine, so I choose it.
Bro, no need to all that ! just D/L an app from the app store called ( Azul ), go to your iTunes, click on Azul, drag and drop ALL your movies in Azul documents window, come back here and thank me ! lol :)

    I think the iMacsoft iPad to PC Transfer is your best choice.You can use it backup and copy songs, videos and photos from iPad to PC. It is also a PC to iPad transfer tool which can transfer songs, videos, and photos from PC to iPad. Meanwhile, iMacsoft iPad to PC Transfer can transfer songs, videos and photos from iPad to iTunes efficiently and simply.

    If your videos are mp4, mov, then just transfer it to your pc or mac, then connect your iPad with Mac via USB. There you can transfer videos to iPad.

    If your videos are not compatible with iPad, you need to convert the file first before transfer it to iPad. What you need a video converter.

    iPad only plays mpeg-4 video files. if your files are not that kind movie type, change them to mp4 on your computer, then transfer the mp4 videos to iPad.

    firstly, you should make sure what kind of video formats iPad is supporting and then convert the vidoes to the formats for playback on your iPad, i suggest iToolSoft Video Converter, it can convert all kinds of video formats to any one you want for playback on different devices.
