Apple TV not syncing with iTunes for purchased movies

Hi, I purchased two movies on iTunes and neither one is syncing with my Apple TV. All music is syncing perfectly fine.
The Apple TV is set to Custom Sync. On the movies tab of the Apple TV device in iTunes I have selected sync all movies since the two I am trying to sync are the only two I have purchased. When I click sync it takes about 15 seconds and then finishes with no additional files transferred. I have also tried changing the setting from sync all movies to sync selected with the two movies selected beneath. Neither works for me. Any ideas on why?
I am using iTunes 8.2

in iTunes in the left hand panel under "Library" click on "Movies".. in the right hand list... find the movies that you bought. on far right of each row/item in the list is a checkbox... this checkbox must be checked or the movie will not sync... is that checkbox checked?

  • Apple TV NOT syncing with iTunes

    I've had my Apple TV for a little over a year and I have synced it with my MacBook Pro a few times in the past. I recently move and reconnected all my media and computers and NOW I'm not able to connect to my Apple TV via iTunes. I've bought several new movies since my last sync and now I'm not able to back any of it up. What can I do to get itunes to recognize that I have a Apple TV. I've already tried to go thru preferences in itunes and click on AppleTV but nothing shows up. I also use an Airport Extreme for my internet and my Apple TV is connect to it via Ethernet cable. Please help!!!

    have you tried a complete power cycle of your equipment ?
    shut everything off for a while. then start the modem and let it run for a while. next, start the router and wait a little, followed by AX and TV. last startup your Mac. try again.
    any difference ?

  • Apple tv not syncing with iTunes on Mac or IPad

    hi there. I have Apple TV 2. AirPlay with my IPad 2 and ATV won't work. And I can't sync ATV with my ITunes library on my Mac. I've worked out it's the routers fault. I need to open some ports, but I'm not sure how to do it. It's a Netgear DG834G. Any idea how to do it?

    As a first step, make sure you have turned on Home Sharing in the TV and in iTunes and on the iPad.
    In iTunes click Advanced/Turn on Home Sharing.
    I can't help you with the Netgear.

  • When syncing my iPhone with iTunes, I get the error, "some items did not sync, see itunes for help", but can't find any helps for this in iTunes. Where can I find out what is not syncing?

    When syncing my iPhone with my iPhone, I get a message that 2 items did not sync - use iTunes for help.
    But I can't find any help information in iTunes at all, let alone when items are not syncing.
    How do I figure out what is not syncing?

    Since it seems App related, I'm not sure what to offer you.  I guess the only suggestion I have is for you to reboot your iPad and then try again.  To reboot, hold the power and home buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds (keep holding past the swipe to shut down bar if it appears) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.  You won't lose any settings or data, so it's worth a shot.

  • My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore.  I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689"  firewall is off

    My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore.  I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689"  firewall is turned off.. Any ideas?

    Thanks Rudegar,
    I only synch and do not stream off of my 1st Gen AppleTV
    I will try with ethernet but will be a pain in the butt if i can not fix it with wifi for long term fix
    I may end up trying to do a named IP address vs DHCP for this appleTV (not sure if i can do both and do not want to remove DHCP as i have a bunch of sensors and other devices that I prefer to dynamically add to the network via DHCP vs. assign each one
    Will keep working on other fix options (factory reset, etc.)
    Thanks again

  • My iphone 3 will not sync with itunes - it says Apple mobile device is not started, also does it with ipad - any ideas?? thanksple mobile device is not starte

    my iphone 3 will not sync with itunes, it says Apple mobile device is not started, also doing it with ipad - can anyone help??? thanks

    Restart your computer. Run iTunes and check for updates. If there is a later version of iTunes available, download and install it. Then try again. If you still cannot see your iPad listed in iTunes make a list of all the things you have tried so that we can see exactly what steps you have taken.

    iphone will not sync with itunes or ture on only with it on a charger but will only keep popping up the apple sign or on acation show iso6 on screen and say sync with conputer but as soon as i take it off yhe charger it wont do anything

    I followed the instructions in those 2 articles. Still not able to see the device in ITunes. I reinstalled the latest iTunes and all updates to my iMac (Mac OSX ver 10.6.8). I tried 3 different USB Cables in different USB ports. Rebooting both the Iphone and IMac. Still nothing seems to be working. I searched the discussion boards and I see other people with the same problem but they seem to run into the same problems finding a solution. I dont understand what happened because this was working properly up until 2 days ago. Do you have any more suggestions?

    I have had exactly the same problem before, I have followed the guide as suggested to the letter and still no joy, each time (3 times now) that I have reinstalled the latest version of iTunes it is recognised and syncs with my iphone but with the next reboot of my computer it is gone again.

    Hope it works you out.

  • Ipad 4th Gen not syncing with iTunes

    Hi everyone, as you know ios7 just came out and i upgraded my ipad. Well after i upgraded it to ios 7 my ipad is not syncing with itunes. It shows me a message that the computer is not authorized. I tried to authorize it and it shows me that its already authourized. I tried de authorizing it and re authorizing it but it still did not work. Please help me, i cannot sync my ipad! my itunes is the latest version.

    Hello Christian,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to sync your iPad.  I recommend following the steps in the article below when iTunes repeatedly prompts for your authorization:

    You are correct.  Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases.  You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again:  Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

  • HT4235 Bought an ipod but it will not sync with itunes.  Diagnostics passes everything but the sync test says "no ipod found" even though the computer shows it and itunes shows it but is still doesn't sync.

    I purchased an ipod shuffle (5th generation I think).  It is recognized by the computer and recognized by itunes but will not sync with itunes.  Ran diagnostics and all passed but when it got to the sync test, it says "ipod touch, iphone, or ipad found".  When I put on earphones, it tells me to sync with itunes.  But it will not.  What a person to do?

    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • TS3694 The apps on my iphone will not sync with iTunes.  Process just skips steps 3 and 5.  Any suggestions?

    The apps on my iphone will not sync with iTunes.  Process just skips steps 3 and 5.  Any suggestions

    Are you signed into iTunes on the computer with the same Apple ID the apps in question were "purchased" with?  Is the computer authorized for that account?

  • My Ipod will not sync with Itunes - PLEASE HELP

    I have a bunch of songs on my ipod that I have from my previous computer and they will not sync with Itunes on my new computer. I have authorized the computer, I have also selected the "transfer purchases from ipod" option, I have spent the last day reading through FAQs but have found no solution. How do I fix the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

    The transfer purchases option only works with music purchased from iTunes and you don't say if this is the case.
    Here's some other option for Windows users.
    First, try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • IPad Mini Retina not syncing with iTunes

    My iPad Mini Retina has not been syncing with iTunes for some time. 
    I have reset it - by holding down the home and power key.  I am using the new Macbook Air 2014 - because it has crashed on a few occasions it has also been restarted recently. 
    I am running IOS 7.1.2 on the Mini and 11.3 on the Mac Air.  It has stopped at various parts but the last few times has been stopping at Step 4 of the sync. A few people seem to have had this issue but I have not found a resolution yet.
