Anyone know how to reliably rent movies on iPad?
I'd like to be able to rent a movie on the iPad and watch it on the iPad. Seems straightforward but the following two scenarios happen way too often for me:
Rent the movie and it downloads. Then while on a plane (travel a lot for work) I tap on the movie, movie pops up, and then the app crashes. No movie. Purchased/downloaded movies play just fine, just not the rental I rented for this 10 hour flight. Rental seems to work if I get back on WiFi but of course that's not always an option while I'm at 30,000 feet.
Attempt to download a rental. I rent the movie, enter my credentials, the movie downloads for 20 minutes, and then it gets to processing. Processing fails, and then the movie is stuck in a weird limbo state where it doesn't show up in downloads, shows up as a gray square in my Videos> Rentals, and when I try to download/watch it says "You rented this but it download, go to your downloads section" which doesn't exist.
So does anyone have a bullet proof method to fix these issues that doesn't involve Apple? I try logging out of the store and iCloud in settings, restarting the iPad, but that doesn't do it. Usually I end up contacting Apple support and they sometimes can reset something on their end, but they don't always know how to do that. And here I am about to get on a plane in 5 hours with the same issue. Pretty frustrating.
Thanks
Never mind. It was under audio calls. Silly!

Does anyone know how to get a movie to play on the apply TV that you rented?
Does anyone out there know how to get a movie to play on the Apple TV that was rented through Apple TV?
It's not going to show under purchases because it's a rental. You have to go into settings - iTunes - check for rental.
Note: a rental will disappear once it's expired (after 24hrs or 48 hrs depending on location) -
I urgently need to make some audio tracks from videos using the new 2013 GarageBand. In iLife11 Garageband, this was very easy. However, I cannot see how to do it in the new one. The alternative might be to revert to the iLife11 version, so does anyone know how to do this. It's extremely urgent since I need to produce these for a court custody hearing which will take place at 0800 GMT UK time on 31st October 2013. Please help.
Thank you.When you drag a movie from the Media Browser to the Time lIne in GarageBand, you will see a pop-up "Extracting Audio".
The Movie and the audio file will appear in separate tracks. You can copy the audio region from the sound track to a different track to keep it safe and then hide the Movie track.

When trying to activate my iPad 3, I consistently get a message that the activation server is unavailable, Please Try Again. Does anyone know how to help me?
It is not bricked... I think I finally found the way: http://www.imore.com/how-fix-activation-errors-iphone-after-installation-ios-7-b eta.
The above artical started to help.. but eventually I did the following:
1) put device into DFU mode
http://www.imore.com/tip-put-iphone-ipad-dfu-mode
2) when connecting ipad to itunes, itunes was aware of DFU mode. Just selected the update and itunes downloaded the correct new OS (iOS 7.0.2) and did it's thing.
Note: there was no need to download an older version of iOS. In fact, I was always rejected when attempting a downloaded ipsw. iTunes always said, "This device isn't eligible for the requested build".
Device Info: iPad 3 wifi. Software was iOS beta 7 (7 release 5 I think). -
Does anyone know how to "abort" a movie download?
Hello,
I bought the theatrical version of a movie by mistake. I stopped the downloading, erased the title frome the downloading box, and thought I'd done well.
So I bought the Director's cut of the same movie, but then I realised they both were downloading. That means that the nice practical iTunes feature that allows us to finish dowloading a movie that was stopped by mistake is becoming my worst nightmare at the moment.
Can anyone tell me how I can stop and cancel the first download and not be billed for it?
Thanks a lot in advance. :-)
ClaudiaHi and thank you for your trying to answer my question. It happens that there were one solution in 2 steps, but nothing that neither you nor anyone else not working at Apple could have giving me.
Thanks again for trying.

Anyone know how to convert h264 .mov files to play in adobe flash player 9?
Software advice?
Flash CS3 Professional comes with an utility to convert videos into .FLV. Before that (Macromedia Studio MX 2004, don't know about other versions because I skipped a few) I remember that there was a QT extension that required QT Pro. A quick Google search gave this utility for Windows only.

Can't. This is done for the individual movie, not by iTunes.
Some have it, most don't. -

Horrible experience and the movie kept stalling through iTunes on appletv. Gave up (after paying for it) and ended up renting it through cable provider. Anyone know how to get $ back from apple?!
Issues are usually network related
What is your internet speed? www.speedtest.net
6mbps is required for instant HD (you can switch to SD in the settings)
If on wifi try ethernet and www.istumbler.net to rule out interference
Make sure you're using your ISP's DNS -
I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?
I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
/Applications/Aperture.app
/Library/Application Support/Aperture/
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/
