Buying a season one episode at a time - discount for the last few episodes?

If I am not sure about a show, I would prefer to watch the pilot and maybe and episode or two before buying the season. Is itunes smart enough to know that if I buy an episode or two and then buy the season that the season price should be discounted by the cost of having bought two or thre episodes. Similarly, if you buy (say) 10 episodes of a 12 episode season, will itunes "give" me the last episode or two free because the cost of buying 10 out of 12 is the same as a season pass? If the answer is no to all of these, then does anyone have any tips how best to watch a pilot without having to pay for it?

    I recently bought a new i phone 4 as my other one had seen beter days and for the last sevral days have been trying to transfer my photos ect from my old phone to my new one after I've plugged my old iPhone into iTunes to back it up i then plug in my one to transfer it over I've had no luck I've tryed restoring my new phone to the last time i backed up my old files the phone restores but always to its own backup point wen i first connected it to iTunes can anyone help me please?

    Since this is the second computer you've had this problem with, I recommend you look for answers on the iPhone forum. My thinking is it is an iPhone issue rather than a computer issue (unless it is some software incompatibility).

  • For the last few weeks, after I close FF 19.0, I can't reopen it. I've resorted to having to re-install FF each time to get it to open. What to do?

    For the last few weeks, every time I shut down Firefox 18 (and most recently 19.0), I cannot re-open the browser again. The application spins as if it's going to open, then stops and sits there. I've had to resort to re-installing the brower each time now, very irritating. It does recall my tabs as they had been, which I want. I used to open as many as 40-50 tabs, but now have made an effort to keep them below 20, thinking that would help it work more optimally. I'm getting weary of re-installing the browser all the time. What should I do? THANKS

    By the way, your "More system details" page shows that you have two different versions of the Flash plugin. Sometimes Adobe's updater fails to remove the older version if Firefox is open at the time you run it.
    To remove the older one by hand, open this folder and look for files starting with NPSWF32:
    C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    You only need the latest one.

    I just got the iPhone 5s, I have had a 4 for the last few years, my husband uses a galaxy.  I have never had issues with any of our phones connecting to the cars Bluetooth until this one sometimes it will connect and sometimes it won't.  I drive a gm car.  A friend of mine drives an Acura and said she is also having the same problem?  I have to connect the phone every time I get in the car. 

    Turn Off BT on your Phone & ReBoot..
    Delete the phone from the vehicles memory..
    Restart the Vehicle & go thro' the Pair set up..........

  • I have a new Macbook Air and for the last few days the fan had run continuously, this is the first time it has ever run, and now it won't stop, the fan starts up as soon as I turn it on. The computer is not hot.Any ideas on how I can fix this please ?

    I have a new Macbook Air, 6 months old, and for the last few days the fan had run continuously, this is the first time it has ever run, and now it won't stop, the fan starts up as soon as I turn it on and the computer seems to running more slowy.The computer is not hot but I am worried it may burn out,.Any ideas on how I can fix this please ?

    Hello dwb,
    Here is the screen shot, just the top half, there are another 10 pages, but I guess this should enough for you to have an idea of waht is going on, bit small I am afraid. No, I don't have any apps setup to run when I open my computer, the kernel, varies between 290 and 305 per cent ish.
    Would that PRAM thing help ? I think it may be the computer itself, well something inside, as this the first time that the fan has ever started running since I have this computer, even when I have 3 or 4 apps running.
    Thank you again for your advice,
    Regard,

  • Never buying an HP product again. First time and is the last time!!!

    My partner and I brought our laptop 8 months ago and it has caused us nothing but grief. We had the hard drive replaced 3 months ago, the mother board last week and now it is in getting serviced yet again for a new CPU. Our computer was top of the range when we first brought it so we paid an impressive price for it.
    Hp customer service want nothing to do with our problems over the phone or through email and I am tired of dealing with them. They have been so unsympathetic and rude. To much of my own time has been wasted on problems that should not happen. Every problem that occurs they try to blame it on software issues. Little do they realise their products are shocking and do not last.
    I will be honestly surprised if the computer actually makes it past the warranty date. Thank goodness we took the extra security and purchased the extended warranty through an insurance company however I feel for them as they take on the terrrible problems this laptop is likely to have over the next two years to come.
    I would like to lodge a formal complaint as I am not happy with the service provided or my product but I see HP obviously no their products are shocking and know a lot of their customers will not be happy with their purchases, Therefore complaints just don't exist. Good example of a company who is only out there to make money and don't care about their customers.
    This is the first Hp product I have ever personally purchased and I can guarantee it will be the last.
    Cheers

  • I have an Imac, OS 10.6.8.  For the last few months I cannot send email from my computer.  I have called my ISP numerous times and they can't help. WHAT is wrong??

    I have not been able to send email from my computer for several months.  I have called my ISP numerous times and they can't or won't help.  Out of the blue something will send that has been in my outbox for days.  A new email address worked briefly but now does not. What is happening here???  Can this be fixed and how?

    The red dots mean that you were unable to connect to the server, either because it's unreachable or because your credentials were rejected. The daisy wheels mean that the server is taking too long to respond.

    You have to order each book separately, if the books are different. Only multiple copies of the same book can be ordered in the same order, see here

  • I can't drag and drop iTunes music files into Roxio Jam 6 anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the " " or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? G5 Dual 2 Ghz and OS 10.4.11

    Hi. I have not used Roxio Jam for quite a long time and I just wanted to make a few CDs. Jam used to work easily and well. I have a problem. I can't drag and drop iTunes music files anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the "+" or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? I trashed the preferences file and restarted Jam to no avail. I also have selected that Jam should open files with iTunes in the Jam preferences. I have a G5 DP 2Ghz PPC  machine with OS 10.4.11, iTunes 9.2.1 and Quicktime's version is 7.6.4. I have 2 GB of RAM and the machine has dual 1.25 Ghz. processors plus a 500 GB HD. Can anybody give me any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,

    Does TV Shows show as a category under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your Mac's iTunes ? If it does, and that series is still in your country's store, then it should show there and you can download it from there (click the cloud icons) onto your Mac's iTunes library - you can then sync the episodes to your phone.

    I WANT TO BUY A MAC BOOK PRO. MUST I WAIT FOR THE ONE WITH RETINA DISPLAY. WILL THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO CD ROAM BE A PROBLEM? CAN YOU USE AN EXSTERNAL CD ROAM WITH A MAC?

    Apple will gladly sell you a color coordinated and texture matching external SuperDrive to go with your Retina'ized MBP for about $80 bucks.
    Note that those models are completely sealed with no serviceable or upgradeable parts inside. So if you decide to bite the bullet, be sure to customize its guts to your heart's content from the get-go as no further change will be possible. This means CPU speed, amount of RAM and size of the solid state drive. Other external options, like the Superdrive, can be added later.

  • HT204053 We have three iPhones but one Apple ID because I pay for the acct whenever we buy Apps or music.  However, it's frustrating that when we share iCloud it merges our notes and contacts even if we say "DO NOT MERGE."  I've also lost my notes but cou

    We have three iPhones but one Apple ID because I pay for the acct whenever we buy Apps or music.  However, it's frustrating that when we share iCloud it merges our notes and contacts even if we say "DO NOT MERGE."  I've also lost my notes but could not recover them even if I did a restore.

    You can share the same iTunes ID on all your devices and still have different iCloud accounts with different IDs on them.  The ID you use for iTunes does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
    If you want to migrate your devices to separate accounts, on the devices that will be moving save any photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll.  Also email any synced notes to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account.  Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud, go to the iWork app settings and turn off iCloud syncing.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Once the phones are all on separate accounts you can  then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account.

  • My Time Capsule has stopped backing up.  I have an Apple Time Capsule which backs up by wireless. For the last 3 days it has not backed up. I get this message: "The backup was not performed because an error occurred while copying files to the backup disk.

    My Time Capsule has stopped backing up.
    I have an Apple Time Capsule which backs up by wireless. For the last 3 days it has not backed up. I get this message:
    "The backup was not performed because an error occurred while copying files to the backup disk."
    I have gone into Mac Help and followed this down to stage 4:
    under shared it lists my time capsule and my husband's iMac - both use the time machine but we have switched his off temporarily.  Clicking on my Time capsule I get "Connected" and "Sharepoint" - I didn't have to enter connect or password
    I don't understand stage 5: how and where do I select the disk or volume that contains Time Machine backups ?  How do I know which it is? My disk utility lists 160.04 TOSHIBA MK... with sub-heading Macintosh HD.  It also lists (with a "CD" icon) HL-DT-ST DVDRW GS22N
    Under stage 6, how and where do I Locate your backup ? I try dragging my Time capsule from Finder to the Disk Utility side panel but it won't go.  What is my computer's name?
    Please someone help!  I'm completely stumped.
    Thanks,
    Maggie
    Mac Help says:
    If you back up to a Time Capsule or network disk:
    Open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, and slide the switch to Off.
    Open Time Machine preferences
    Open Disk Utility, which is in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. 
    Open Disk Utility
    Make sure the Time Capsule or network disk is turned on and available. 
    Open a Finder window, select your Time Capsule or network disk in the Shared section of the sidebar, and click Connect. If necessary, enter your user name and password. 
    On the Time Capsule or network disk, select the disk or volume that contains Time Machine backups. Depending on how your Time Capsule is set up, there may be one or more disks or volumes. 
    Locate your backup, and drag it to the Disk Utility sidebar.You can identify your backup by looking for your computer’s name in the backup’s filename.
