    Unfortunately this is one of the reasons I left apple. The videos need to be in the right format that apple will accept. Then you use iTunes to sync with. If they are not the right format you will need to change them into the right format with some software first. Sorry it's been too long I can't remember what I used, but someone else can help. It was a bit of hassle for me.

    Handbrake should offer an iPhone preset and then just drag the output files into iTunes. Then sync through iTunes.

    I use the VLC for ios app. It allows you to wirelessly transfer movies from the laptop to your phone. Very quick, easy to use and plays most formats!
