Convert IPhone movie to Windows movie

Jan 25, 2014 6:25PM PST

I would like to transfer my paid ipohone itunes kids movies onto my Samsung galaxy note 3. I have tried 'Any Video Converter' download and also Samsung Kies and Samsung Switch but they have all been unsuccessful - looks like they are still blocked. Appreciate any ideas.

Such movies most likely are copy protected by DRM. As a media company ourselves we fully respect DRM. Discussing circumventing or breaking it are a no-go.

Out only advice: don't buy stuff with Apple if you want to run it with non-Apple software.
