Availability of TV show episodes from Irish iTunes

Anyone any idea how to download tv show episodes if you have an Irish account? The link seems to only be on the USA sites. I know licensing etc wont allow current ones to be downloaded, but I was hoping to access some old episodes of like CSI etc.
Any ideas let me know, Thanks.

Sorry, but you can't. The owners of the shows have not yet allowed Apple to sell any shows, new or old, anywhere outside of the US. If or when this will ever be allowed, no one here knows or can say.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic before you post a question.

  • I recently purchase a tv episode from the iTunes store, however, can not download to my IPOD Touch.  Apparently, a format issue, any suggestions

    I recently purchased a tv episode from the iTunes store.  However, I can not get the tv episode downloaded to my IPOD Touch i.e. can not sync movie although music works fine.  From what I read it is an issue with the format of the episode.  The format is HD and apparently is too much for my IPOD touch.  According to the documentation, the SD format for the episode should have been downloaded at the same time as the HD.  I have the latest iOS for my IPOD Touch, 4.2.1 and latest for ITunes 10.5.3.3.  I am using my PC with Windows 7.  I can not download directly to the IPOD Touch since access to the clous is required i.e. iOS 4.3 or higher.  Any suggestions? 

    My suggestion is for you to do the downloads overnight.   

  • TS3297 I purchased a TV show episode from iTunes and it did not load the first 2-3 minutes of the show. What do I do?

    I bought an episode of Grey's Anatomy TV program. When I went to watch it, it had not downloaded the first 2 minutes or so of the episode.

    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • We need tv shows for the Irish itunes, it's getting ridiculous!

    Can something be done about the fact that the Irish itunes store does not have tv shows??!!!!

    My opinion is that if there was an agreement on allowing movies to be purchased on the Irish store then it is unacceptable not to have TV shows as well. It's very frustration not be able to do this. As a loyal iTunes customer for a while now if i am willing to spend my money on TV shows then i should be allowed. I would like to know what Apple are doing with regard to this. Keeping in mind, Apple's Eurpoean headquarters is on my front door literally.

  • How do I stop already viewed and deleted tv show episodes from downloading again from Itunes to my IPod Touch 4?

    I have an Ipod Touch 4 with ICloud. I have 2 season passes for TV shows. I always download these episodes manually, on WiFi, watch them and immediately delete them. I find that sometimes Itunes will continuously ask for my password (which is not needed) and if put it in all of a sudden I now have close to 20 episodes that I've already seen waiting to download again. In order to get rid of them all I usually have to allow them to completely download then delete each one of them again. I am getting sick of doing this. Does anyone know what to do about this? It is annoying and time consuming.

    It sounds like you may have hidden it, in which case you should be able to unhide it : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases. (You can't turn off the hiding of items.)
    But you should be keeping and maintaining a backup copy of all of your downloads and not relying on being able to redownload them - any item could be removed from the store by the rights-holders at any time, if they do then you won't be able to redownload them (nor will be able to do redownload items if you move countries).

  • How to transfer a TV show episode rented in iTunes 10 to Apple TV 1st Gen?

    I've rented an HD pilot episode of "Lie To Me" show on my PowerBook in iTunes 10. Unfortunately, the video is very choppy (it's only a 1.5 GHz G4) and I'd like to transfer the episode to my Apple TV.
    I've read about how to do it, went into the device Apple TV menu in iTunes 10, but I do not see the rented episode anywhere under any tab. Drag'n'drop obviously doesn't work either. Is it even possible to transfer a rented show from iTunes to ATV? I've done it with rented movies in the past, but never with TV shows.
    I had to rent, because this show is not available for rent on ATV, only for purchase. Which I'm not interested in.

    What is even more disappointing is the lack of information regarding this topic on the apple.com support pages. Nowhere does it EXPLICITLY tell us that 1st generation Apple TVs cannot show rented TV programs. One place where this could be signaled is on this troubleshooting sheet - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1359
    Otherwise one could spend 3 days trying to trouble shoot this issue and resetting their Apple TV !st gen over and over without success. The only place that comes close to explaining is on the TV program download page but it only states that the product affected it Apple TV 2nd generation without having the courtesy of telling us that the 1st gen cannot play such content.
    Please, please, please make it clear to the many 1st gen Apple TV owners that they cannot view rented TV programs. This will save us time and the more time we are not resetting our Apple TVs the more time we will be purchasing content on iTunes. Less frustrating for us, more money for you !!!!!

  • Music from my itunes is not showing up?

    My music isnt showing up from my itunes library thing on imove. This means i am unable to put music in the background of my projects. This is really frustrating me. Somebody please help!

    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple recommends,  "You always back up your iTunes library in the event that a purchased item is no longer available on the iTunes Store," (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519).

  • New tv episode from iTunes "can't be played" on my 80GB 5G iPod Video

    I have a 6-month-old 80 GB iPod Video, and I recently downloaded one of the free CW premiere episodes from the iTunes store (specifically the S3 "Supernatural" premiere, entitled "The Magnificent Seven.")
    Every time I sync my iPod, I get the same (annoying) error message popping up:
    "The Magnificent Seven" was not copied to the iPod "(my ipod name)" because it cannot be played on this iPod.
    The software for my iPod is the most up to date, as is my iTunes software (just updated that today.) All other tv shows previously purchased from the iTunes store (and other mp4 files I uploaded on my own) all play with no problem.
    I'm really hoping that this does not mean that any future video purchases from the iTunes store will not play on my newly outdated iPod. I'm wondering if (well, again hoping) it's a limitation because it was a "free download."
    Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks for your help!

    See if this helps.
    iPod does not play content purchased from the iTMS.

  • No audio/visual on TV show downloaded from iTunes app on iPod touch

    I downloaded a $3.99 Avatar TV episode from the iTunes app on my 2nd gen iPod touch, and it seemed to go smoothly until I tried playing the episode. It appears to be playing but all I see is black and there is no audio. I restarted my iPod twice; still, same problem. I can't re-download it without paying again. I have downloaded other Avatar TV episodes the same way before, and they were fine. What went wrong with this one?

    As you connect the ipod touch to the computer, go to the ipod touch options (in devices), uncheck the manually manage.

  • Can i buy content from another itunes store?

    Hi,
    I live in Canada and therefore default to the Canadian itunes store. Can i purchase items ie: TV show episodes from the US itunes store?
    Thanks for any help in advance.

    This has been covered here literally dozens of times, but once again: the content owners do not allow cross-border sales from any of the legal download stores. You must therefore have legal residence in the country of the iTunes Store you wish to use. So in order to buy from another country's iTunes Store, you must (as proof of residence) have either:
    a) a credit card issued by a bank in that country with a billing address also in that country, or
    b) a mailing address for your residence in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
    If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
    This, again, is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice.

  • Why can't I update my apps from my iTunes on Mac?

    So I have 16 apps on my iPhone that needs to be updated. I have limited internet access on my iPhone so I can't update my apps from there. So, I have to update my apps via iTunes on my Mac. However, when I clicked "16 Updates Available" at the bottom part of the apps window, it led me to a window saying "No updates are currently available. To check updates for another Apple ID, sign in with that Apple ID".
    Why is this happening?
    I need to update my apps and I have re-checked my Apple ID numerous times to make sure the correct one is associated.

    If you are getting the bank white screen in the updates tap - There is a problem with Apple’s servers that only they can fix.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
    This is a workaround only and not a fix. If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    Select update on the Apps
    Another option is to update your apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the updated apps to the iPad.
    1. Launch iTunes
    2. Click on Apps in the list under the Library heading in the left Sidebar.
    Click on Updates at the top in the window on the right
    Update all of the apps
    Connect your iPad and Sync with iTunes
    If you do not see the sidebar in iTunes 11 - go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top.
    You can also try closing the App Store on the iPad and reboot the device and see if that fixes your problem.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Transfer apps from my iTunes account to iTunes account of different person

    Hi,
    I will sell my iPhone 4 with my apps to another person.
    How can I transfer my apps to his iTunes account as I will not have a new iPhone and do not have use of my apps anymore ?
    Is that possible and how can I do that ?
    Regards,
    Jerry

    iTunes content downloaded with more than one iTunes account can be in the same iTunes library, which requires constantly logging in and out of each iTunes account with iTunes as needed. There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library on the same computer.
    What you can't do is transfer iTunes content that includes DRM protection from one iTunes account to another iTunes account. All 3rd party apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to download the apps. You can't switch the DRM with 3rd party apps downloaded with one iTunes account to another iTunes account, or combine the DRM with apps downloaded with more than one iTunes account. The same applies to any other iTunes content that includes DRM protection. All music purchased from the iTunes store used to include DRM protection but no longer, but all movies and tv shows purchased from the iTunes store continues to include DRM protection as with 3rd party apps which is tied to the iTunes account used to download the content.

  • HT1202 I want to put the songs onto an Ipad from my Itunes??? HELP

    I want to put the songs onto my niece's Ipad from my Itunes... but when i plug the ipad into the computer it says I need to select one of the following 'set up as new ipad' or 'resore from this back up :rachels iphone' .. but i dont want to erase anything, i just want to transfer some songs over????

    You can't sync with more than one iTunes library. You will have to enable Manually Manage Music and videos in the iTunes settings and then you can drag and drop the songs onto her iPad. This also requires that you turn of auto syncing in iTunes.
    Without connecting the iPad launch iTunes and from the menu go to Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. Check that box. Click OK.
    Now connect the iPad to the computer and you will have to launch iTunes on your own. Click on the iPad name under the devices heading. If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu and you should see her iPad under the devices heading. Go to the Summary Window on the righ and click on Manually Manage Music and Videos. Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
    Now you should be able to drag and drop songs onto her iPad.
