Apple to allow users to cancel movie downloads before onset of grey hair.

Hi,
If iTunes tells me that a movie is going to take 13 hours to download (when it normally takes around 20 minutes) then I want to cancel.
Anyone else out there think this is a good idea?
Chris

The ability to cancel a download certainly wouldn't be a bad option to have, though it's not going to be an easy fix since Apple would have to develop a mechanism to go back and credit your account after the download cancellation. You can suggest it to Apple, if you wish, through the iTunes feedback page. Your comments will be most likely to get to the proper people within Apple that way.
Regards.

    How to allow user print their draft anwsers before sending it as final in a form central questionnaire ?

    Hey MTdev,
    Panel close? events cannot be triggered on a VI being viewed or controlled remotely. Some more information on that can be found in the help here:http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361E-01/lvprop/vi_panel_closeq/.  My suggestion would be to set the Title Bar on the front panel of your remote VI to not be visible so that their only option for closing the window is to click the logout button.  Are you using Remote Front Panels(http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3277) to do this instrument control?  Using remote front panels allows you to manage a lot of the multiple people accesssing at the same-time type issues so it may be something to look into if you are not already using this method.

  • Why does Apple not allow users to choose an iOS?

    Why are they forced to use an iOS that does not work well with their phone/devices?  I have a 32gb 3GS, and it's still running 3.1.3.  I never upgraded because I never read anything good about them.  Now, there are some apps I'd like to use, but I am required to have 4.x to run them, so I can't download them.  I know there's a version of 4.x that is "better" than the others, so I'd consider that one (if I could find where I read it, again, to "pick it"), but, through Apple's infinite (lack of) wisdom, if I upgrade, I'm pigeon-holed into 5.0.1, which apparently is nothing but bad news for a 3GS-er.
    So basically, can anyone give a reasonable, logical explanation as to why Apple seems to think that everyone should have the latest (and not greatest) version of the iOS?

    Because given the nature of iOS, security, and 3rd party developers, it would be a nightmare to try to provide support for the multiple versions of iOS that could be running at any given time. Also, if an upgrade included security fixes (which many have) and Apple allowed people to go backwards by providing the software on their site they open themselves up to liability for any breach that might ensue on the users iPhone.
    As you have determined you do not have to upgrade, although you tend to get nagged about it. And developers will move on and use new APIs in newer versions of the OS that will render you unable to use them. This happens on computers too. But given the closed nature of iOS this is Apple's best option. And if you think iOS is closed you should look at Windows Mobile 7.

    You need to fire the guy/gal who is in charge of the Cancel button - which will not let you cancel and causes your users to continue to incur charges. 
    Oh, and you owe me $3.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The external drive is formatted in NTFS. OS X can't write in NTFS disks.
    You have different options, but the easiest is to install an application ilke Paragon NTFS. This app will allow you to copy your iTunes library to your external drive.
    Another option is to format your external drive in a format that a PC and a Mac can write in. In this case, you can format it in exFAT or FAT32, and I suggest you FAT32 because I doubt you have files bigger than 4 GB in your iTunes library. If you have them, you will have to use exFAT, and you will have to format the external drive on a PC

  • Business Catalyst e-commerce (allow user to cancel his subscription)

    Hi
    My Client is using e-commerce bussiness catalyst and is using Adobe Muse to design the website. For the payment process my client is planning on using the built-in Business Catalyst e-commerce module with PayPal as the payment processing gateway.My client also wants the customer to be able to cancel his own magazine subscription without having to contact him to request a cancel. Is this something that adobe bussiness catalyst is able to accomplish ?
    Thank you very much
    Just in case something was unclear here is the original message.
    We're building a site in Adobe Muse. Our product is a monthly subscription, with a one-time licensing fee. We will host on Adobe Business Catalyst. We need a check-out solution using either PayPal Web Standard -- OR -- the built-in Business Catalyst e-commerce module with PayPal as the payment processing gateway.
    The check-out module needs 3 options:
    1) Charge $695 one time and also set up a monthly payment of $39 starting 30 days after the one time charge
    2) Charge $695 one time and also set up a monthly payment of $59 starting 30 days after the one time charge
    3) A promo code field that allows the customer to start the subscription in 90 days instead of 30 (the promo code will change frequently; it needs to be easily editable by us)
    The customer will need to be able to cancel the subscription at any time (without contacting us)."

    Hi Prashant,
    Thank you for the quick reply.  However please note that we are not using anything related to CRM.  We are only using SAP E-Commerce for SAP ERP (SAP EHP1 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.0) with ECC 6.0 back end. 
    With that said, we are not looking to use E-Commerce for self registration, but relying on a CWA front end for registration/authentication.
    The main question is:  Can we allow creation of a B2B user with a portal user ID that is different than the back end ECC user ID in our scenario (no CRM)?
    thanks!

  • Multiple Apple IDs, Multiple Apple Devices, Multiple User Profiles, & One Mac

    My husband and I recently bought our first mac and iPhones. When we set each of them up I'm not sure we took the best method as far as ease of access to content and simplification. Each iPhone is linked to a separate Apple ID and we have two user accounts on our mac that each use our own Apple IDs. This prevents us from sharing content between devices linked to the other person's Apple ID. Is there a way to overcome this or should we have set up our devices differently? When we got the mac and transferred our music over from our old computer we ended up essentially setting up duplicate files, one for each user profile. We've each purchased items or downloaded digital content on each Apple ID. Is there a simple way to combine all of this content and maintain two user profiles? I'm fine with even reducing our profiles to one if that ultimately simplifies everything and we don't lose anything. However, keeping our iPhones under separate Apple IDs allows for personal settings and downloads. We're also considering buying an iPad. Would registering all of our devices make things easier? How should we have set up our accounts and devices? How can we make things simpler?

    You might try setting up iCloud Family. I haven't tried it but I think it could help. https://www.apple.com/icloud/family-sharing/

  • Cancelling partial downloads in Launchpad?

    I had just downloaded Garageband 10.0.1 from the ap store and was wanting to update the app with the latest additional loops. I realised afterwards that there was another way of doing this and I've got the other loops now, but to get back to my story, So I mistakenly hit the 'update' button for garagebend in teh app store again and it started re-downloadiing garageband 10.0.1 all over again, which I don't need. So I paused the download in the launchpad, and now I want to cancel the paused download and remove it from the launchpad. Is there a way of doing this please?

  • HT200109 Why do all my other Apple devices not care if the movie I rented from iTunes if it was downloaded directly to that device or not, but the stupid Apple TV won't allow you to play rented movies unless you rented it directly from the Apple TV?

    Why do all my other Apple devices not care if the movie I rented from iTunes if it was downloaded directly to that device or not, but the stupid Apple TV won't allow you to play rented movies unless you rented it directly from the Apple TV?
    Great, so now I have to airplay it by linking my computer to my Apple TV and then the movie has to buffer! So, all that time I spent downloading the HD video has to technically "download" again by buffering. The more I use Apple TV, the more I feel like this item was not created by Apple. I don't even use it for what I originally purchased it for. If I would have known that anytime I wanted to sync a movie from my computer to Apple TV by using airplay that it would have to buffer the movie, I would have never ever ever ever ever purchased this waste of time device. So the video has to technically play all the way through one time first so Apple TV can "remember" the movie to play it back in real time afterwards.
    Am I missing something here? Am I doing something wrong that can be fixing my problem? I should have known that the Apple TV had so many things backwards when simple things like when you are using the remote and you reach the bottom of your list, in order to cycle back to the top of your list you have then press the directional buton back the other way rather than most modern day devices that will automatically cycle you back to the top or to the other side when you reached the bottom or end but keep on pressing the button. That **** annoys me when I am doing a search for a movie and have to type the name in manually and have to cycle back and forth to the letters. It makes me feel like I am using a rotary phone or something!

    I was told by someone to try and purchase something directly from my Apple TV and that will help authorize my Apple TV.  So I picked something that was free and it downloaded.
    Then I went back to the Movie that would not work and it played just fine. 
    So it seemed to work.  I will have to try it on other movies and TV shows later.

    Purchases cannot be cancelled, but if you cannot clear enough space to allow the download, go here:

    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Perhaps there will be something they can do for you.

    Could you please tell me why as a Brit resident in Japan therefore having a billing address that is Japanese is forced to only get service from the Japanese online store? Is there not some way of allowing me to select movies and music to buy and download from other stores. Why do am i forced to try to nread Japanese when I have selected English as my language. The price for Downloads is no different and even if it was I am happy to pay. This also applies to Movie rental which is crazy and extremely restrictive. I a supposed GLOBAL community why does Apple do this.

    You can buy ONLY from the itunes store of your country of residence (As proven by valid billing address of credit card) and ONLY while inside the borders of that country.
    These are the terms of the itunes store.

    we have a movie downloaded on a laptop connected to the internet pluged into our router in the basement and an apple tv upstairs trying to play the movie through home sharing but it wont play. can anyone tell me whats wrong? it comes to the last loading page where it shows the desscription of the movie befor it acually plays.

    It can come about without any change done by the user, and it's not just from other networks. The placement of the router can also affect performance. Also make sure router is up to date.
    Apart from that would be the reboots.

    In the future, there won't be any Flash. Adobe, who makes it, has cancelled future versions for mobile devices like the iPad:
    http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2011/11/adobe-kills-mobile-flash/
    You should check if there is another way to get the live stream. For example, I sometimes watch online classes on a site that uses Flash for the video. But they also provide a non-Flash video stream that can be watched in an iPhone or iPad web browser, and an iOS app that you can also use to watch the stream.
