I have downloaded 'In The Loop' onto my iPod - how can I watch it on my laptop?

Just that really. Is it just a question of connecting it to a port? Which one? Do I need a special AV cable?

Please help me or I'll have to watch it on the matchbox-sized iPod screen.

Dunno. Did you not download it via the laptop then? Into itunes?

Well, it's complicated. I did pay for it and download it properly your honour, but on my enormo-PC, where my Itunes library is. But I Don't have any speakers on that PC. So I wanted to watch it on my laptop (which doesn't have my iTunes library on).

Could you just install itunes on the laptop and then plug in your usb cable and shouldn't it update automatically? There's probably a simpler geek solution though...

Use a variation of this, using the movie instead of the iTunes folder:

Woohoo, hello JJ! (How are you finding the US healthcare debate? )

Thanks, will have a look.

Ha ha, you will understand if I don't answer on a public forum (eek!).

I really hope you like the movie. I wish I could see it for the first time again!

Thanks - I'm looking forward to it! Have been wanting to watch it all day but have had to wait until kids are safely out of earshot.
