$50 worth of my movies/music videos are gone

I bought roughly $50 worth of music videos/movies on iTunes, and this happened: They were all downloading, but there was more then one of each of them, for example, it said "GI Joe" multiple times (It wasn't the special features part either) same exact thing, over and over. They downloaded (kind of) But when I clicked on the movie part, there was about 10 of the same "GI Joe" movies there, none of them would play. In the end, my computer crashed, and when I opened up iTunes again, $50 worth of movies/music videos are gone. I'm extremely upset and don't know what to do. The downloaded and processing was completed.

First, relax. Sometimes everything doesn't go perfectly.
If you bought the HD version, the SD version downloads as well so that you can watch on an ipod, if you so choose.
You can go to Store>Check for Available downloads
If this doesn't work then go to purchase History, click "Report a Problem" and report the problem. Apple will resolve within a day. You could also e-mail itunes support:

From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

Itunes 7 crashing in tv/movie/music video areas of store

I'm not sure if any one else has this problem with itunes 7 but; when I go to the itunes store everything is fine until I go to the following sections--movies/music videos/tv, I think you see where I'm going with this; another BUG! I get "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." PC users knows what this means. Before it crashes I see in the main itunes store window, itunes cannot support this browser what! It's itunes 7. I have all the updates and have adjusted quicktime etc although its my belief I shouldn't have to do this in the first place if Apple would have provided a more reliable upgrade! This is my second posting ever in Apples discussion.
I was once an Apple hardware geek back in the early adoption of the powerpc daze. You know; 6500/6300 computers and powerbooks hardware and software that didn't work days. The Gil "daze"--those were bad times for Apple. Don't do it again Apple--make bad software and hardware. Keep the quality of your software and hardware intact Steve. Are you listening or reading these posts?
FYI: This only happens on my laptop not my desktop. Also, this never happened with itunes 6x. You had a good product Apple. I think you pushed this upgrade out to fast.
1. support 24bit
2. fix your browsers issues
3. provide the customer with a sane way to back out of an upgrade.
4. fix it now!
Otherwise--the new features are COOL!

Are running the current XP updates? Have you restarted your computer? Have you tried downloading music? I was successful downloading music on my desktop; itunes crashes when I access the video, tv, music video part of the store using my laptop I dont have these problems with my desktop. There are a few workarounds posted. Make sure directx is updated--check you settings for quicktime (16bit instead of 24). Unfortunately at this point there's no solid solution. You can back out of itunes 7; if your interested I'll post it on this discussion. I'm not sure that solves your problem for your new ipods. Sense you have new ipods your entitled to support. I would call them and let the discussion groups know whats up.
Good luck.

Apps, some music, videos are gone after the ios5 update

Hello, mates.
1. I am wondering how I can get all my apps back. About 30 apps worth about 50 bucks are gone. Some of them can be downloaded back for free (I bought them) on appstore, but some seem to require repurchase (only buy option is available in the appstore for the apps that I bought long time ago).
2. Some of the songs (the ones that cannot be downloaded on itunes, so I downloaded them from torrents. (folk, russian, kazakh, and etc)) were erased from my iphone 4. They are not present at the itunes (I updated today), neither in my playlists, nor in the general music folder. How can I get them back?
3. I bought a couple movies a long time ago for my ipad. I then gave it to my little brother as a present (he blackmailed me, lol), and started using his own apple id. Is there a way I could download the same movies for my new macbook or iphone 4 without having to pay again?
4. I have a second apple id that has a lot of shows. How can I download these shows on my macbook without having to erase my current itunes lib?

Siri isn't supported on the iPad 2.

Downloaded ios7 to ipad2 and now all titles of my movies in Videos are gone, only the movie icon remains? How to get titles back?

Downloaded ios7 to ipad2 and lost all titles of my movies in Videos. The movies are still there and play fine, but all the names of the movies are gone. Only the movie icons remain. How can I get the names of the movies back on the screen?

My "movies" are actually music videos. For most it shows a screen grab and I can identify a majority of the videos by that. But for some, the screen grab is just black. I have no way of knowing which video that is. Titles are definitely needed.

My movies appear through AppleTV, my music videos are ok, but my own videos do not appear

My videos are not appearing through AppleTv. I hear the music but no video. However, my music videos are ok and regular movies are ok. The videos I created are the issue. They were running ok until I updated the software for AppleTV.

hey, same thing happended to me, i transfer some videos and worked perfectly, then i transfer more videos and the first ones showed up without that icon u said, that designates that they are videos, and when i play them they where just sound, no video, then i plug ipod back to pc and now the new videos dont show up with the icon!! and they are not on the videos section, i think they are lost on the ipod mixed with music files.
what can i do bout this?

ITunes Match music videos are ineligible, how can I get them back onto my iPod?

Hi,
I subscribed to iTunes Match earlier today, turned it on and did the same on my ipod touch but have now discovered all my music videos are ineligible and can't be tansfered via iCloud. It wont allow me to sync my iPod via USB cable. Is there anyway I can get my videos back onto my iPod? Thanks

I'm looking into this as well. Most of my videos were purchased from apple and showed up originally. But, I had a lot of problems with the tags in my regular music and had to more or less purge my iCloud library. Afterwards, I had the same problem as you. iTunes would no longer match the iTunes purchased music videos.
Anyhow, there is a quick way to get them transfered to your iPod.
Right click on the videos and use "Get Info" to change them to a "TV Show."
You can also set the "Show" to something like "Music Videos."
I also set all then music videos grouping to "Music Video."
Created a smart playlist that just listed all things grouped as such.
Make sure Sync TV Shows is checked.
I may have left a step or two out. But, you should be able to handle the rest from there.
This is what I'm doing at least until I find a better solution.

I restored my iPad and all my pictures and videos are gone how do I get them back?

I restored my iPad and all my pictures and videos are gone how do I get them back?

Well, when you restore your ipad, there is really no way to get the information back. The reason you restore it i to get all of the information off of it. Why did you restore it if you wanted to keep the info?
Aa far as I know, there is no way to un-restore any device. But, you can put the info back onto the device if it was on your computer, etc.
Sorry...

When I upgraded iphone to ios 5 and all of my pics and videos are gone. I remember doing this through iTunes. Can anyone help me please?

When I upgraded iphone to ios 5 and all of my pics and videos are gone. I remember doing the upgrade through iTunes. I've looked in iPhoto and iTunes. Does anyone have any sugesstions of how I can get my pictures back?

For some reason, did you fail to use the iPhone as intended? Meaning copying the pictures and videos off the device regularly so that in the event the device is lost/stolen or simply fails, copies would exist on your computer?
You can try restoring from the backup created prior to the update, but it is strongly recommended that pictures/videos be copied off the device on a regular basis. Then any pics/vids that the user desires to keep on the device can be synced back via iTunes.

Half my music, all my apps/movies/playlist/videos are missing from my i tunes but i looked into my music and it seems to be all in there is there anything i can do?

Half my music, and all my apps/playlist/movies/videos are missing from my itunes. I found it all in my music on my computer but it wont go into itunes. Is there any suggestions on what i can do? I have most of it backed up on a external hard drive all i am affraid to do anything as i don't want to lose all the time and money i have invested. Someone told me to uninstall itunes and reinstall it and see what happens any thought?

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup.

from Byron.

You can indeed burn moves and shows from the iTunes Store to a data DVD (via Finder or other software) for backup purposes, which is I believe what Byron is asking about (though I can't be sure). You just can't burn them to a video DVD to be played in a standard DVD player.
Well, I'm not sure about that. Having just re-read the terms, it appears that you may re-download content, and that you can burn songs, but this appears to not include videos (unless it is iTunes Plus content):
(iv) You shall be authorized to burn an audio playlist up to seven times.
(v) You shall not be entitled to burn video iTunes Products or ringtone iTunes Products.
(vi) iTunes Plus Products do not contain security technology that limits your usage of such products, and Usage Rules (ii) – (v) do not apply to iTunes Plus Products. You may copy, store, and burn iTunes Plus Products as reasonably necessary for personal, noncommercial use.
Reading further, then there is this:
(ix) Content Rentals
(a) Content rentals are viewable on only one device at a time. You must be connected to the iTunes Service when moving rentals, and you may do so only between your computer and other compatible devices. Content rented using your Apple TV, iPad, iPhone 4, or iPod touch (4th generation) may not be moved. If you move a rental to a compatible device and then use the iTunes Service to restore that device, or choose Settings > Reset > Erase all content and settings on that device, the rental will be permanently deleted.
(b) You have thirty (30) days after downloading a rental to begin viewing. Once you begin viewing, you have twenty-four (24) hours to finish viewing a movie, and forty-eight (48) hours to finish viewing a TV show. Stopping, pausing, or restarting a rental does not extend the available time for viewing.
Some iTunes Products, including but not limited to Content rentals, may be downloaded only once and cannot be replaced if lost for any reason. It is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage iTunes Products once downloaded, and you may wish to back them up.
Even after years of deciphering contracts and the sometimes rather complex content, I find this a bit confusing and I'd be checking with Apple to make sure I'm not doing anything I shouldn't be.

Possible to play movies/music videos nonstop?

Would it be possible to play movies and/or music videos (or videos, for the matter) one after another? Without having to select one by one after the previous one is over?

Not at present. But, where there's life, there's hope....

$50 worth of my movies/music videos are gone
