2 of my movies aren't playing on itunes

I have 2 movies on itunes that won't play like they use to ever since I upgraded my itunes. What can I do?

Not all movies will be available in iCloud since not all movie studios have agreed. Even those that did have not licensed all content.

  • My movies wont't play  on iTunes 11

    Hi,
    My movies won't play on itunes 11 (if i scroll the timeline it can show still images but do not play).
    With the previous version it worked fine.
    it's running on a mac mini freshly reinstalled with OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
    The movies bought on itunes store play fine.
    The others m4v h.264(x264) with ac3 sound no.
    Regards

    The files are also saved as .m4v  .  I don't know what this means but for example, a tv show that won't play in iTunes 10.4.1 (10) is Isobel.m4v
    Please help me!!!

  • Movies no longer play in iTunes or ATV

    I installed the software update for iTunes 11.1.5.5 and now movies (m4v from Handbrake) stored on my PC no longer play in iTunes or Apple TV. These have been playing fine for years, so I'm guessing that 11.1.5.5 has something in it that suddenly doesn't like this format anymore. I can still see my whole library in ATV, covers and all, but when I hit play, I just get the spinning icon. In iTunes, it's just a black screen with the timer staying at zero. Music still plays fine on both devices. I'm frustrated at myself to no end for installing the update. As well, I cannot fine a single complaint of this same issue. I'm hoping that might be because there's a simple fix (long shot I know). Anyone else having issues? Any ideas? Please remember that this file format has been playing without issue for years, so please don't suggest that I change the format unless you know for sure that is a new concern with playback. Thank you.

    Well, in case anyone is reading this and willing to offer ideas, I did uninstall iTunes 11.1.5.5 and re-installed the last full version I had saved 11.1.1.11 (not really sure of the last version I was on before everything stopped working). Nothing was lost during the re-install (all libraries, playlists and such are still as they were....I was expecting this not to be the case). However, this process didn't change the video playback problem. I'm at a loss of what this could be. I went through the audio issues mentioned on another thread and did the recommendations, with no change. I did manage to find a few videos that still do play. The only difference I could see is that they are listed as "low complexity" and in stereo. I suppose it probably is an audio thing, though I have no idea why it's an issue now, when it never has been in the past. Please help. Thank you.

  • Some movies no longer play in iTunes

    I rip a lot of my DVDs/BR's and put them onto my external drive to play in iTunes and on my Apple TV. I noticed that some of my HD movies will play on my Apple TV, but they won't play in iTunes. I can skip to various scenes and iTunes just stays on that frame - it doesn't play. Oddly, Quicktime X and and other media player will play the movie. I had no issues in ML, this just happened after upgrading to Mavericks.
    Any ideas?

    It seems to be a perian problem.
    Modified it like said on this post (for other reasons) : https://code.google.com/p/subler/issues/detail?id=404#c12
    Completed by this link : http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/converting-blue-ray-discs-andor-mkvs-ipad-ipho ne-–-part-iii
    For me it solved the problem (Mavericks on a macbook pro 3.1).
    Hope it does for you too.

  • Movies which are played with itunes are missing 2nd line of subtitles therefore apple tv 2 misses these also. How so?

    Movies converted from MKV via Handbrake which are played with itunes are missing 2nd line of subtitles therefore apple tv 2 misses these also. Funny is that Quicktime and Ipad 2 handles subtitles correctly on the same moviefile.
    (please note that the subtitles are not burned into movie)
    What can be the problem?
    Has anyone suggestions?
    Thanks in advance

  • Rented movies do not play in iTunes.

    Its just a black screen and the time counter wont move. The rented movies play fine on my iPad, also purchased movies/tv-shows plays fine. This all happened after installing Lion. Someone with similar experiences? Or with any sollutions?

    You did try tapping on one of them in that list in the iPod app! This has happened to me and I was able to start the movie from there. You could try restarting the iPad, go into the iPod app and try again.
    Now I'm stumped unless it is a corrupt download. You did download right onto the iPad - correct? If you downloaded in iTunes, there is a Move tab or function that you have to select to transfer the movies to the iPad when you sync. They just don't sync over without selecting move.

  • Digital Disney movies will not play in iTunes 12.1.1

    Digital Disney movies will not play when selecting play. I've used space bar, left and right laptop mouse button and enter. The other menu options have no issues. It's got to be only with the iTune extra when redeeming from Disney Blu-ray.

    Well, I uninstalled the iTunes software and reinstalled the software. The songs in question are still not recognized. When I had unstalled the iTunes software, I went into "Program Files" and to the "iTunes" folder. Nothing was in the folder except a plugin for Last.fm. I had not removed that. Upon reinstallation, I tried to play the songs again in iTunes and they still to not play (nor do they even load). Any idea as to what this may be?

  • Quicktime movies aren't playing well w/ Quicktime upgrade

    I upgraded to quicktime 7.5. b/c I upgraded itunes and itunes wouldn't run w/o it. Now the movies that I made aren't playable in quicktime. The audio plays fine but images are at a slow frame rate kinda like a bad streaming video.

    ive had the same problems since quite some time, it started when OSX was updated to 10.4.11.
    the newer iTunes wouldn't smoothly play any MPEG4 movies i'd previously had running smoothly,
    i was using a rather old G4/450,through OSX 10.4.7 and '9, it was encoding DVD's to MP4, and iTunes was encoding for ipod etc, all running really well.
    until i got the 10.4.11 update, I also updated iTunes (and obviously had to upgrade Quicktime as a condition) - suddenly iTunes, cannot play any of the files well.....i knew it was nothing to do with the MP4's 'cos they'd been fine until after the updates....and quicktime wasn't as smooth either.
    i suspect it has something to do with updating the OS and Apple 'tuning' it for newer faster machines/CPU speeds, and leaving older (but previously well enough equipped) machines with an OS that lets them down when it comes to managing the throughput of files for this kind of streaming.
    at the time i realised this, i did a backup - then a clean install of OSX previous to 10.4.11, and the related iTunes/Quicktime.....it solved the issue completely.
    but more recently i decided to instead keep up to date with the OS (and use 10.4.11) but re-encode the iTunes MP4's at a lower rate. it seems that before the 10.4.11 & iTunes/QT related updates, an old G4/450 could quite easily run any 1400kb/s MP4 movies, but after the updates, it would really only play anything 700-900(max) kb/s.
    at the time i was thoroughly pixxed off with these updates for clogging up old machines/CPU that were completely up to the task, just to feed the power hungry new machines. it would be better if they tried to keep older products well - it would make Apple look like builders of great machines.

  • Movies aren't playing smoothly

    since my last update 11.0.4 my movies are scattering, not smooth at all.

    If you are loading all of the files and they are all playing at the same time, that could be the problem.  Invisible files still eat up their share of the processor if they are left in a playing mode.
    I am unable to determine there is any slowness, primarily due to not knowing what the first one is supposed to be doing and the others appear to be flip book implementations that work fine as long as they are only the couple of pages I can see.

  • Movies aren't playing, please help!

    Nothing is displayed and no sound is played when I try to play Movies or TV shows, just a black screen with the movie control panel and the play time advancing. I can see all of the chapters when I click that button on the conrtol panel, but selecting them only advances the play time to the correct spot without the movie actually being displayed.
    How do I fix this? I have already tried installing the latest Quicktime and that did not fix the problem.
    Thank you in advance!

    i had a similar problem, it turned out the issue was the format of the video that i was using (mainly the sound quality). you might want to try to run the video/audio through IMOVIE. go to SHARE, go to EXPORT USING QUICKTIME, go to EXPORT, then choose the best setting for the IDVD that you our making (most liking quicktime), then replace the old video's with the new one's from IMOVIE and it should work, it might take awhile (1 hour-1.5 hour) altogether. but the final product is awesome. my family and friends swear i had the video's professionally done.

  • Certain movies won't play in itunes

    Need help, got about 25 digital copies movie in my itunes and 3 of them won't play. The screen with the play button appear but the movie doesn't start. I tried to delete it from the library and re-download it with the cloud but still no response.

    Here is what a -50 error means:
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

  • Songs downloaded on iPad aren't playing on iTunes on the mac

    I purchase an album on iTunes from my iPad. The songs are showing up in iTunes on my Mac after syncing, but they are "greyed" out and have the sync circle icon next to them but I can't figure out how to complete the operation. Can anyone help?

    Both of these suggestions are good troubleshooting, but assume that you have confirmed that your ipod is set to automatically update all songs and playlists. To check to see how you have your ipod configured to update songs, click on the ipod name in the source list of itunes, then click on the ipod options button in the lower right hand corner of the itunes window. (this button has a small icon of an ipod on it.)
    There are three ways you can configure your ipod:
    Automatically update all songs and playlists
    Automatically update selected playlists only
    Manually Manage
