Can you download movies into iTunes and watch them via airplay without an internet connection? We want to be able to watch downloaded movies in our RV.

If you want to watch on your iPad screen, you don't even need airplay.
If you want to watch on a television screen, you need an AppleTV.
In both cases...
If the movies are purchased, there is no need for an Internet connection to the outside world. If they're rented, you need an Internet connection for the first minute or so that Apple knows that you're watching the movie. I do not know if a rented movie can be stopped and restarted without an Internet connection.

Can't download Movies into Itunes or on my iPad

I bought 3 tv shows and then rented 2 movies. Only the tv shows would download directly to my iPad. Now I am having to download the movies directly into iTunes and then will try to sync to my iPad. I am pretty upset. This has been an all night problem and of course tech support is not 24/7. I am leaving for the airport in 1 hour and the movie I am trying to download is taking forever. I looked on the forums and it seems that everyone is having the same or similar problems. I am using iTunes 10 and there is tons of space of my iPad. Thanks for your help

Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you did not restrict it.
Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset home screen layout will return it to the home screen, but the screen will like like it did "out of the box".

HT4914 can you download songs from itunes match from the cloud to your iPhone ie for times when you dont have internet connection

can you download songs from itunes match from the cloud to your iPhone ie for times when you dont have internet connection?

Unless you have an Internet connection you cannot access iCloud. You can download your music from iCloud to store permanently on your iPhone, but only when you have an Internet connection to do so.

Can't download movies on iTunes (Windows 7 Home Premium)

The other night, I realized a new fascination for movies starring Michael Cera. So, while lying in bed, I decided to download a few. Those to included Scott Pilgrim, Youth in Revolt, Nick and Norah, and Superbad. The downloaded went find on my iPhone 4, but when I tried to search for the the next morning on my computer - I couldn't find them. I ended up having to get them from my iPhone 4 to iTunes and everything seemed to have worked out fine. Now, whenever I try to play the files via iTunes on my computer, an error pops up stating the computer I'm using doesn't have authorization to play said file and to authorize the computer. By now I think I've unauthorized and authorized this computer maybe 60 times now. So I just went ahead and decided to just buy them again. I did do that, but now whenever I try to download them a "-50" errors pops up anywhere during the download stating that the download had to be stopped because I lost connection. Doesn't say what I lost connection to (iTunes, internet, etc), but just merely states that I have lost the connection. So I did some research and apparently this has happened before. A quickfix would be to just clear the created cache of each file, redownload them over again and it should work out. Well this didn't work .. it just kept erroring out in random/different spots everytime. I need some help. I go on a long plane ride in 2 weeks and I want to have my Michael Cera movies to watch. Thank you.

You'll need to describe your network. I don't know what a "windows based" home network is. Do you have a LAN? Or are you running a Windows server?
If you have a LAN, is your printer connected via wifi to your router or is it connected to a print server? Did you install the printer's drivers on your Apple computer? Is your printer getting an IP Address?

Can't drop movie into iTunes

I have a AVI-movie. The video track is "Generic MPEG-4" and the sound track is "ATSC A/52 and AC-3 Decoder".
I can play the file with QuickTime-Player but can't drop it into iTunes library.
Whats wrong?

Video files MUST be in the right format to be used on video and iphone devices.
I was only able to get a few videos myself onto my player.
Google term "IPOD" video file format"

Can you download music straight onto your ipod nano 7th generation without the use of a computer?

so can you download music straight onto an ipod nano without having to sync to a computer, i'm just wondering because my dad wants an ipod but just for music so there's no point him getting an ipod touch, and he doesn't own a computer so he wouldn't be able to sync. he doesn't live with me also so it would be a pain if he had to use my computer every time he wanted to add music to his ipod.
thankssss

No. Sorry. The only way to transfer the music to your ipod is through syncing in iTunes. Cheers!

HT4095 Can I download movies from iTunes to my iPad and watch them on line as well in case I don't have my iPad with me.

I have a 16gig iPad mini with latest iOS software.
Please can anyone advise on the following.
If I buy a movie on iTunes, can I download it onto my iPad and keep it there?
If I then delete it, can I download it again free?
If I do not have my iPad with me, can I watch it online through iTunes?

The film will need to be downloaded in order to watch it, you can't stream it from the store. Whether you can re-download a film will depend upon what country that you are in and whether it remains in the store (studios occasionally remove them). You are better off keeping your own backup copy of all of your downloads rather that relying on being able to re-download from the store in the future (you can copy purchases from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases)
What can be re-downloaded where : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085
You can also get wifi-enabled drives which allow you to stream your content to your iPad, so not everything needs to be stored on it e.g. GoFlex Satellite (there are other makes as well).

Downloading content to use with apple tv on television, can you download multiple shows and then watch them later or just one at a time, watch then download the next one?? If multiple downloads are possible how does one do it?

I just received apple tv as a present this Christmas and the shows take too long to download when I want to watch them. Can I download multiple shows overnight or during day and watch them in the evening?? If so how?

The ATV stores no content.
Content can be downloaded to iTunes on a computer and then streamed to the ATV via HomeSharing.

I want to download movies form Itunes then watch them when I do not have access to the internet

I want to download movies from I tunes and have them stay on my ipad so I can watch them in locations where I do not have access to the internet. Any thoughts???

Make sure you tap the cloud icon instead of just the play button.

HT2729 how do i get the old itunes back as i can not put movies into itunes now that i have loaded the new itunes

i used to hold down alt whilst draging the movie into the menu at the left side of itunes now that menu is no longer there

the movie file now shows up in home videos within the movie folder so all my movies are in the movie file in itunes except the new ones now go into movie/home video itunes since i updated itunes
As implied above, if you do not use a metadata tagging utility and share or import your files directly to iTunes the new files are automatically tagged as "Home Videos" during the import process but you can still use iTunes to make them appear in the same directory as your other movies just as you always could chage their display directory. Simply...
1) select the "Movies/Home Videos" tab in the main window,
2) select any/all of the videos you want moved,
3) select the "File/Get Info" menu option (or press "Command-I") to open the "Information" window,
4) select the "Options" tab in the "Information" window
5) Select the "Movie" option in the "Video Kind" pop-up, and
6) Press the "OK" button to move all items selected in step #2 above to your "Movie" directory and close the "Information" window.
If you use a metadata tagging utility to add tags to your videos before import to iTunes, then pre-assign the "Movie" Media Kind tag to your files before import to iTunes. If you use a metadata tagging utility to tag files after import to iTunes, then manually set the "Movie" Media Kind option in that app and let it update the iTunes "Movie" directory. If the metadata tagging utility has not yet been updated to recognized files pre-assigned to the "Home Videos" directory, then manually tag the Media Kind in iTunes as described above before using the metadata tagging utility. If you don't like having iTunes automatically assign the "Home Videos" tag to untagged videos during import, then use the iTunes Product Feedback form to request an iTunes "Preference" enhancement option be added to the application allowing users to select a default "Media Kind" to be assigned to "untagged" video files during import.

I can't download movies from iTunes on my iPad!!!!

I go to films in iTunes and click on buy and nothing happens, when I re click on the buy button it tells me that I have already purchased the film but it has not downloaded and to manage it in the downloads file but there is nothing there. Please can someone help.

I have only downloaded one feature length film on my iPad and I did it at home using my home WiFi network. It went flawlessly and took about 90 minutes to download a 1.64 GB movie.
Maybe it was an authorization issue with your iPad. iTunes can get hinky about that kind of thing - especially with app downloads. Maybe connecting the iPad to your computer reset your iTunes authorization and let the movie start downloading again. I know that sounds bizarre but it can occur with third party apps that will not open. One of the common fixes is to download another app in order to reset your iTunes account authorization.
You should be able to see the download progress bar as the movie is downloading. My response was worded the way that it was because I didn't know if you started the download and left the iPad sitting somewhere for a few hours and when you came back - all you saw was the terms and downloads screen.

TS1398 Can't download movie from Itunes to Ipad.

I have a new IPad and am trying to download my first movie from Itunes. It takes all my account info and then won't download. I thibnk my wifi connection is OK--I get mail and have downloaded a few games.

Where are you physically located? Although I haven't heard of specific instances, if you read the store terms of use they do reserve the right to use technologies to monitor your physical presence in the store's country when making purchases. Even if you have a functioning US account, you are also supposed to be actually in the USA when doing the downloads.

Can you download DVDs to itunes

Is it possible to move movies and tv shows on DVD to itunes so you dont have to buy them?

i "can you give me an exact thread b/c i cant find anything"
You're kidding, right?
There are many Topics on the subject. Usually on the very first page of the link I originally posted. Most of the ones with high numbers of replies focus on this very issue.
Try this one for starters: http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?128@@.68bcd291
As for what programs....until I have a video iPod, I have little information on that. Do a bit of reading and you should have several options. And several conflicting opinions.

Can't download movie from iTunes Store!! Help!

I wanna buy a movie in iTunes Store. But when i clicked it, it said "must connect to Wi-Fi or have to download it on your computer" But the Wi-Fi connect is excellent. I shut the iTunes and reopen it, still doesn't work. Why? Need help!!!

This issue has been popping up with a lot of people for the last hour, I think the store must be down because it is not just you, I have not yet heard a response from Apple although I submitted the issue to support recently
