Why is downloading movies from the iTunes store so slow?
why is downloading movies from the itunes store so slow?
Hi there
Many users seem to be experiencing this issue around the world (see thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/16981332#16981332) - my iTunes dowload last night showed 7 hours ETA for a 45 minute tv show. this morning I rebooted it and tried again, it is now taking 2 hours. An improvement in theory but still terrible. I don't know if it is internet connection but everything else I do on the internet seems to be running at normal pace.....
Not much help sorry but at least you can see you are not alone

I've downloaded movies from the iTunes store to my iPad but when I want to play them, I get the message... iTunes Store Terms and Conditions... but when I follow the link it still doesn't let me play my movies. What am I doing wrong?
Easy maybe, but a lot of users are used to playing the movies in iTunes on their computers so that is the first place they turn to on the iPad.
Enjoy the show! -
Do you have to have wifi to download movies from the iTunes Store?
Do you have to have wifi to download a movie from the iTunes Store?
You have to have a internet connection of some type, yes. You can enable the option to download over cellular, but keep in mind movies tend to be very large files.

Why does it take hours to download movie
It takes 5-8 hours for me to download a movie either to purchase or rent, does anyone know who or how to fix this?
You most likely need a faster internet connection. What do you get with a speedtest app?

Why does my ipad ask me to sign into the iTunes Store when i start up my ipad?
why does my ipad ask me to sign into the iTunes Store when i start up my ipad?
Probably because you have not signed in in the Settings app. The iTunes and App Store keeps track of apps that need updating and auto updates apps for you. You need to be sign in for this to work.
Settings > iTunes and App Store > sign in. -
i just downloaded two rental movies from the iTunes store, proceeded to sync them to my iPad, and now I can't find where they landed. Anybody know where to access rental movies on the iPad? thanks
And just in case .... You don't actually sync rental movies to the iPad....
To transfer a rented movie from iTunes, use the movies pane in iTunes. Rented movies transfer is at the top. You must have an Internet connection to transfer a rented movie. Select the "move" arrow in the direction you wish to transfer, and click the apply button at the bottom right. Rented movies can only exist on one device at a time, they do not sync like other video, but move from iTunes to the iPad. -
i rented a movie from the itunes store in hd and closed itunes on accident after letting it download and after reopening itunes i am un able find my movie rental. ive searched in my library, movies, etc. and i cannot find it anywhere. i did start it... but i have atleast another 20 hours to watch it before the rental expires.
Doublechecking. Did you download the rental in iTunes for Mac, iTunes for Windows, or an iOS device?

I downloaded ringtones from the iTunes Store from Nguyen Dev. It had some amazing tones, but when I tried to download it, it wouldn't work. I ave tried repeatedly, but to no avail. If I deleted it, would I get my money back. My ring tones are so bland that I wanted something that was a reflection of me. This had it all. I am so disappointed. What can I do?
I had some time finally figuring why I could buy and download from the Itunes store, but could not load it on my IPOD. What finally worked was plugging my IPOD in to the computer, as I would when "syncing", and, after loading, it would show my device in the side bar. You have to go to VIEW in the top Tool Bar and click on SHOW SIDE BAR in the drop down menu. "SUMMARY' tab, on top, is what I clicked on to show an option of restoring my IPOD to the factory defaults. It erases everything on the IPOD, but gives an option of AUTOFILL afterwards, which it does from the computer. This is one solution of many you could try. Good luck.

I can't make purchases anymore in the App "Clash of Clans" and yet I can purchase music and movies from the iTunes store. Can someone help?
What happens when you try to buy them, does the 'buy' button not work, do you get any error messages ... ?
If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them for help (we are fellow users on these forums, we won't know why the message is appearing) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
If it's a different problem ... ?
