Black Screen with Audio for Downloaded TV Shows from iTunes

Hi,
When I try to watch TV shows that I downloaded from the iTunes store..I just get a black screen with audio. I've tried un-installing and re-installing. I'm currently running version 10.1.1.4 on my Win XP Pro machine. I downloaded the entire "Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors" series and cannot get a single ep to give a picture. I've heard that quite a few people are having this issue. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Nic

I can get a picture with Quicktime...but if I try to get enlarge the screen, the picture often becomes corrupted. I'm just rather annoyed that I spent $40 on this series and am having these issues. I only downloaded iTunes because there was no other option of getting this show. I've waited 24 years to see the entire "Liberty Stone" Mini-series (there was a problem with the tapes DIC released and they were missing eps)...so this just feels like a taunt.
I'm hoping this gets fixed quickly. It sounds like there is a lack of standardization with the DRM being used on these files.

    Hi,
    First plaese unplug any external device (except the mouse and keyboard), then hold on the power button, perform a cold reboot, what is the result?
    If doesn't work, please press F8 (or other button, depend on your PC model) boot your compute into recovery console.
    You can restore your system to a previous point or perform a startup repair, please refer to the following link:

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

    Did you burn the CD as an audio CD?
    If not, that's your problem. Otherwise, without more details I can only guess. You might try a different brand of disk, or if you're using CD-RW try CD-R.

  • I downloaded tv shows from iTunes onto my iPad, but when I plugged into my computer it erased them from the iPad and they didn't get transferred to the computer. How do I get them back?

    I downloaded tv shows from iTunes onto my iPad, but when I plugged into my computer it erased them from the iPad and they didn't get transferred to the computer. How do I get them back?

    First, is your iTunes account on your computer, the account you set up your iPad with and the one you sync regularly with?  If yes, just reconnect your iPad to your computer, via USB and open iTunes.  After your iPad syncs, and you see the message that it's OK to disconnect, don't disconnect.  Click once on the iPad from the left side of your iTunes screen.  This will open your iPad in iTunes.  You would then click on Videos and you'll see the TV shows you downloaded.  You can choose individual shows, or choose to sync all videos to your iPad.  After you've moved what you wanted back, click apply, then sync again and you should be fine.

    If the TV Show is downloaded on your iPad, you don't need Wi-Fi to watch it.

    I don't know who/what Indira Budiman is, but you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If it's an app then does it allow you to make in-app purchases within it ? If it does then you can turn off in-app purchases via Settings > General > Restrictions on your device.

  • Black screen after downloading TV show from itunes

    HI. Downloaded an TV episode from itunes store. Loaded it onto laptop. Played ep and made sure it worked on laptop. Then stopped it but went back a few days later to play it. Connected laptop and TV with a HDMI cable but all it has on the laptop is a black screen with a toolbar top and bottom. Has the title of the ep and the time playing but no pik or audio. Doesn't matter whether it is connected to TV or just on laptop won't play but yet it played a few days earlier...
    Help?
    Also when I download a tv ep it dowbnloads two episodes, hd and sd and both are eating into my internet usuage. Is there anyway to download just one or do both need to be downloaded? Downloaded 13 ep of a season and it fully used my entire months internet allowance ;P

    I need help with a similar issue. I downloaded one tv episode with no problems. The 2nd one I tried, I got error code 8008. I emailed iTunes Help and they gave me the instructions to delete the temporary files, restart my computer, and sign back in to iTunes and check for available updates. After doing this, I got one more to go through. I then bought another episode, and after the same problems, finally got it to go through. I was also told to check my firewall, Anti-Virus software, and any Ad-ware software because I could get 2 more episodes to download. I disabled and uninstalled what I could and tried again, with no luck. I looked last night, and the 2 episodes that won't download are in my TV Shows category under my Library heading, but they won't sync to my iPod. When I look at them in the Purchased category, they are dimmed and it won't let me do anything with them. So far, I haven't heard anything from Support.

  • TS3274 I have a black screen with the circle downloading on the i pad but it won't turn off even after using troubleshooting tips. Does anyone know what to do ?

    I have a black screen which has the downloading circle going round and round but which is otherwise frozen and won't respond to
    troubleshooting suggestions for turning it off and rebooting. Any suggestions please ?

    Reboot:  Do this exactly:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until you see the Apple Logo, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart.

  • Sleep mode wakeup with black screen with curser for a few seconds

    when the computer goes to sleep, sometimes when i click anybutton, it gives me a black screen with a curer and then it apparing everything normally. whats the problem causing this

    I have the same problem but I do not know of any solutions. I am searching for one as well.
    Let me rephrase the issue I experience. After the display goes off because of the energy saving settings, and after moving the mouse (or pushing a key) to wake it up, the screen appears black (but with the presence of the mouse cursor, which can move and even change shape---to a hand or a hyphen---if the pad is clicked) and stays black for a couple of seconds, from 3 to 10 seconds I believe.
    The computer is not responsive after that but not before. The previous and normal behavior is intead for the screen to turn on immediately and the computer being responsive right away. Instead, now there is a window of 3-10 seconds where the screen is black with a cursor and the computer unresponsive.
    Of course, it is very frustrating. Please help.

  • I accepted iOS 8.3 upgrade last night on our iPad and now cannot turn it on - get as far as a black screen with the picture of the charger and itunes logo - help please!

    I accepted the latest 8.3 iOS upgrade last night which resulted in my not being able to turn on the iPad.
    Following the troubleshooting guidelines I can get as far as the black screen by forcing a restart (holding both buttons) all I can see is the diagrammatic picture of the charger and the iTunes red logo. I cannot move on from here and the instructions indicated that a message should show offering the iOS upgrade - but this is not happening for me!
    If anyone can help it would be hugely appreciated - many thanks.
    I think we have an iPad 2 (approx. 2 years old)

    Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
    It sounds like your iPad is in recovery mode after an error in the update process that may have occurred. The solution to this would be to plug it into a computer running the latest version of iTunes and press the restore button. This will ease the iPad and reinstall iOS. Hopefully you setup an iCloud or iTunes backup for the device.

  • My iPhone 4s is messed up for downloading purchased shows from I tunes, says to connect to wifi and I have, says unable to ... Arrgh. Also seems to have very little brain, have to delete apps to fit one episode of 40-60 min show. Frustrating! Any ideas?

    Help with ? Glitch for downloading showS! Also if I try to watch the show under videos app it freezes repeatedly. This is new in last few weeks! What's up?!

    If you have to delete apps in order to download the video chances are you still do not have enough free space on your iPhone for that video to run smoothly.

    I have seen 3 potential solutions in this forum
    1) If you are using iTunes Match Store > Update iTunes Match
    2) Logging out of itunes store and logging in again
    3) Downloading Free single of the week - no idea why this should work but people have reported it does

  • Auto download TV shows from itunes to ipad?

    Hello,
    Is there anyway I can set my IPad to auto download / receive the TV shows I have downloading. They auto download from iTunes on my mac in iTunes when they are available..  let me know if anyone can help me

    I'm not aware that you can with the iPad - you can do so with music, apps, and ibooks (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4539), but I don't think that you currently can with TV shows or films.
