[Anonymous User]

BBC iplayer on NowTV black box, I have saved titles. I Want those titles on BBC iplayer app on iPad but it asks me to log in with BBC ID. 

NowTV id and password doesn't work 

Is there a way to cross link the iplayer on all devices?

You can't cross link saved titles from the NOW TV box with the iPad at the moment, you will have to do this manually.

Your NOW TV username doesn't work on iPlayer, you need to create a BBC account here

https://www.bbc.com/register

which can can then be used to log into your iPad to store favourites etc.

Unfortunately the BBCiPlayer app on the NOW TV box hasn't been updated to allow login with BBC accounts yet, so you can't coordinate with that just yet. However BBC are updating all versions of iplayer in the first half of 2017 so you can expect the app on the NOW TV box to be updated to allow login in the coming months.
