Apple doesn't own the copyrights to any of the entertainment content they sell. They are just the retailer. If the copyright owner decides they no longer what their product available on the iTunes Store then it will no longer be available. There's not a lot Apple can do about that. What it also says, at the bottom of the page in the fine print is:
Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store... So backup your purchases. I backup all my purchases to local storage and do not depend on a third party to keep my data safe. It is your responsiblity.

Can't download movies from the cloud

I have an iMac which is an authorized computer on my itunes, everytime I try to play something from the cloud a little grey cloud with horizontal lines moving through its shows up an nothing happens. Please advise

According to the trms of the iTunes and app stores - all sales are final. but that doe not mean that you can't try anyway. People ask for refunds all the time. Use the Express Lane email to contact iTunes.

You can still download the other movies in iTunes on your computer. Launch iTunes and go to Store>Check for Available Downloads. You can download them in iTunes and then sync them to the iPad later. When you are done watching the first movie, you can transfer it into iTunes on your computer, delete it from the iPad and you will have the room for another movie on the device. To transfer the movie when you are done with it, you can use the transfer purchases feature.

If the photos that you lost were photos that you took with the iPad, they should be in your iPad backup - if you sync with iTunes or if you backup with iCloud.

I have just purchased iTunes Match...Can I download songs from the cloud onto my iPad as I have dj software on the iPad and the song files have to be downloaded onto the iPads hard drive for it to play

Yes, you certainly can. You just tap the iCloud download button to download the tracks.

Trouble downloading movies from the cloud to new pc computer (windows 8)

We just added our itunes account to a new computer and are trying to download our previously purchased movies from the cloud but they will not download. it keeps freezing. any suggestions?

Hello jarhna,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your downloading items you purchased from iTunes. I don't think you're doing anything wrong, but I did find an article that has steps to address the error you are getting:
iTunes Store: "Error (-50)" when downloading purchased content

Can't download Ps from the cloud. Why?

Can't download PS in the cloud. Window appears BRIEFLY stating "Another version of Application Mgr is running..." then disappears and a never ending green download bar appears. It goes on forever and then fails. What do I do?

What browser are you using?
In Windows Task Manager, do you see an instance of Adobe Application Manager running?
Good luck,

New update deleted all of my lecture notes and wouldn't restore recent backup. How can I download them from the cloud to my iPad? (not at my computer right now)

(It's fifteen minutes before class starts)
I tried to back up all of my devices before making the update to 7.0.6.
My iPad was ejected and iTunes told me that it couldn't be updated due to some error (this was yesterday). Then when I plugged it back in, it said I needed to restore my iPad, and I couldn't get to the home screen or anything, it just showed a "Connect to iTunes" icon. So it restored a really early version (with notes from last semester but not from this semester), even though I'm sure I've backed it up at least twice since I got it (1-13-14).
I got onto the Cloud and downloaded some important lecture notes before performing the update just to make sure that they would all be up to date, but those are on my computer, which I am currently not at, so I can't download them. I saw that my iPad was syncing with my Cloud, so my college notes were all showing up, and I didn't stick around to make sure that the current ones showed up (but they're on my cloud, so wouldn't they?).
Also, I use Branchfire's iAnnotate PDF, and all of my highlighted articles for research papers and summaries are gone. I'm missing important articles that had notes for two seminars, and they're all gone. I'm confident I can recover things from the cloud, but iAnnotate doesn't use the cloud. Is there a way to find those again?
What I'm curious about right now is if there's a way to download from the Cloud to my iPad, because that's where my notes are.
Does the cloud sync FROM my iPad? As in, if it isn't on my iPad will it delete documents from my Cloud? Or if it's in the Cloud, will it sync to my iPad if it's absent here?
This is really frustrating, especially because I TRIED to back everything up just to be safe. I tried everything, and I still lost all of my important files. This is beyond frustrating, it's devastating. This is unacceptable.

There are some recovery programs out there if you google them - many with free trials. I haven't tried them so I have no opinion.Read any professional tech and user reviews you can find before you try one. I have read here in the past that some have worked for people who have posted here.
To help in the future, have you considered using Jump Desktop - Remote Desktop? I know it won't solve the problem you're dealing with now (unless notes were taken on your computer.) It's in the app store. It's the #1 paid app in the business category and the reviews are great. It allows you to see anything that's on your computer on your ipad. If you take your notes on your ipad then you might want to email them to yourself, put them on Word in your computer, for example, and then if you need them in class, you remotely connect your ipad to your computer and you will see your notes. This way you won't have to rely so much on the cloud. The explanation would be too long here, but you might want to take a look at it. You can use the free trial on jumpdesk.com and then if it works for you, buy it in the app store.
Meanwhile, it's hours since you sent this post. Hopefully others who can help solve your problem who are on this forum now can help you. I hope you get your notes back. Don't give up too quickly.
Hope this helps.

Downloading past purchases from the iTunes ... - Support - Apple

HT2589 I already have 2 devices on one apple ID account and want to add apple TV. How do I add another device on an existing apple ID account so that I can download movies from the cloud to any of 3 devices?

how do I add another device on to my apple ID account so that I can download movies etc.. from my icloud to any of the 3 devices on the account? I already have my iphone and ipad on the account and for some reason my 3rd device (apple TV) dropped off. If you can help, greatly appreciated!!

Hello there, HannaGriffin.
Since the Apple TV (1st Generation) is the only one that has storage, I would recommend the following Knowledge Base articles for troubleshooting issues with authorization:
Apple TV (1st generation) may not play content purchased from the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1359
or
Apple TV (1st generation): Apple TV repeatedly asks for password to play iTunes Store rentals or purchases

Can't download music from the cloud. Cloud/down arrow will not go away, Any suggestions?

iPod works fine. iPhone songs have cloud/down arrow and will not go away.

I, too, am having this same issue with my purchased music. I have had every issue with iOS 7 and I'm at my wits end. I thought all had been corrected, and then last night I purchased an album, the first time since the update, and it absolutely will NOT download to my phone. I have had it with this iOS7 and one of the phones on my plan is due for upgrade, and I'm THIS close.... Please let me know if you find a solution or if yours is corrected.

Can not download music from the cloud.

It worked the first time immediately after install but never again. I have enabled automatic downloads of music. I see the iCloud icon on the select bar immediately below the search bar with moving diagonal lines, but nothing seems to download. When it worked, the Apple icon in the center box was replaced by a progress bar for each song that was being downloaded. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you already checked your settings for the iTunes & App Store? Are you using the same account on both devices "Settings > iTunes & App Stores"?

Can't download a purchased movie from the cloud or watch trailers in iTunes movies

Can't download a purchased movie from the cloud or watch trailers in iTunes movies

Hello Addymay2,
I would recommend signing out of your Apple ID in Settings -> iTunes and App Stores. After this, close all open apps and restart your device. Once your iPad is powered back up, sign back into your Apple ID in Settings -> iTunes and App Stores.
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
iOS: Force an app to close

Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

I am having trouble downloading a previously purchased movie from the Cloud.

The movie in question is "The Mist." I have purchased a lot of movies from iTunes lately, and to save room on my Mac, I have moved all the movie files onto a portable hard drive and simply deleted them from my Mac. Thus, whenever I want to watch a movie, I just transfer it from my hard drive back onto my Mac no problem, and watch the movie. Somehow, "The Mist" got deleted from my hard drive, so I figured "No worries, I'll just download it from the Cloud and get the file back. I've done it before!"
iTunes does this frustrating thing where even if you delete the video file from your computer, the movie thumbnail still shows up in your movies library, and I guess the Cloud considers this as you still having the movie on your computer, because when I went to my purchase history, it said the movie was already downloaded on my computer, when in fact it was not (it also said this for all my other movies, which are not on my computer but on my PHD). Only after I deleted the thumbnail for the movie did it show up under "Not on this computer" and allow me to hit the download button. Then I get this message saying "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 80 days." It will not let me download my previously purchased movie!
I have already tried logging out and back in again, that did nothing. Do I seriously have to wait 90 days to redownload my movie again? Like, is that a thing? What if you have a hard drive wipe, and have to redownload everything from the Cloud again; would you seriously only be able to redownload all your movies in 90 day incriments? What if I need to redownload multiple purchased movies at once, do I have to wait 90 days in between each one?
Am I the only one having this problem? If so, any help would be appreciated.
If this is not a "problem" and merely a "thing" iTunes does for security reasons, then this is a complaint. I have legally purchased this movie under the same account that I'm currently trying to redownload it through, I find it ridiculous that I should have to wait 90 days; you don't have to wait this long for downloading multiple apps/songs/books. Alternatively, trying to redownload the movie from its store page on iTunes is not an option, because as far as I can tell, iTunes does not let you redownload already purchased movies from their store page, as with apps/songs/books. If you try to re-purchase a movie, in the hopes that it will simply let you download it for free, seeing as how you've ALREADY purchased it, instead it'll gladly charge you again for movie. So no, I am not willing to purchase the movie again, I would just like to re-download it from the Cloud as I've done with other movies before it. I don't know what makes this one different.

I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

I have bought complete albums in the past... Now that I am trying to download them from the cloud, some songs no longer appear in My Purchases... How can/do I retrieve them?

I have bought complete albums in the past... Now that I am trying to download them from the cloud, some songs no longer appear in My Purchases... How can/do I retrieve them?

Do those tracks still show on the album in the store ? If not then the rights-holder must have removed them, in which case you won't be able to redownload them, you will have to copy them back from your backup of your downloads/library. If they are still on the album in the store then check to see if you've hidden them : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support

ATV 3 won't play my purchased movies from the cloud

Hi,
Since updating the software, my ATV3 wont play any movies I have previously purchased. I can download them from the cloud to my mac and stream from there, but the ATV tries to play thethen says it can't connect to the iTunes server. I can browse the rentals with no issue though.
Any suggestions?

Thanks to all those who looked and are as clueless as me. I have solved this problem but I still do not understand it.
I will pass on what happened and maybe it will help you.
I keep my iTunes purchases on my D drive, not in My Music on the C drive. I did this to save space on the C. I have done this for years and it was after an iTunes update that the problems started. All this time I have been trying to play these files and have been getting the "Windows Has Detected A Problem" or some such.
I have my iTunes purchases backed up on 2 different external drives and yesterday it finally dawned on me that I should try to play one of those. And Yes! It worked. Every one I have tried plays with no problems.
So like I said, I don't understand what happened.
