Can I watch purchased shows without downloading
I'd like to watch tv shows I've already purchased without downloading them to my laptop. The only options I can find other than downloading deal with Apple TV and Airplay. Seems like there should be someway to watch them directly from the cloud. If it makes any difference, if working with a PC running Win 7.

HT1491 How come I can't watch purchased tv show on my ipad if not connected to Internet?

There are two kinds of content, streaming and downloaded. If your show is a streaming show you have to be on the internet to view it. (akin to you not being able to watch youtube videos without being on the net)
Downloaded files can be watched anytime (within the constraints of the DRM of course) -

Hi Miriam1972,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can use iTunes on your laptop to download the tv shows for viewing. See this article for the steps to download the shows:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

How can I watch purchased movies on apple tv?
How can I watch purchased movies on apple tv? I recently purchased an apple tv and cannot play the movies I have bought on my itunes account?
Can anyone help?You can also got to movies and select purchased and if it comes up cannot connect to server go to settings and scroll down to restart and it should work. That's what I did and it showed my purchased movies and I don't have my Apple TV paired with a computer. Just using iCloud. But you also can pair your computer but its not necessary to watch purchased movies you have bought through iTunes. Hope this helps.

If it's a purchase then you would need to download it to your laptop by visiting the iTunes store - purchased (under quick links).
If it's a rental it will only be viewable on the Apple TV. -
My Purchases show partially downloaded. When I attempt to resume the download I recieve an error message: "an unknown error occurred -50". I tunes has charged for the download and sent a reciept however the shows wont play?
I had the same problem so (assuming under the Purchased items in the Store you have a song stuck at 'Downloading'):
I went to Music, then Artists.
From there I chose the album.
The song that failed to download had the cloud symbol next to it.
I clicked the cloud symbol and the song completed the download for me.
(Please note this was in iTunes for Windows - I expect it to be similar in iTunes for Apple)

Can we issue purchase order without price info
Hi,
We had issued purchase orders to a vendor, but we come across that price info has not been maintained for the same. It seems that this is exceptional case. Can we issue purchase order without price info ??
Regards...Hi,
In general case while creating purchase order price is picked up from purchasing info records which are valid , if the info record is not maintained it is picked up from last purchase order.
But as you said it is purcahse order without info records.
Options available are;
You can manually enter the price in the item overview and details will automatically get calculated in item detail of purchase order
You can mark free delivery indicator in the item overview.
Thanks,

No such option exists, all media downloads to the iTunes Media Folder location as defined in Edit > Preferences > Advanced.
Moving iTunes Media folder This will move the ENTIRE iTunes media folder to the external drive. Keep in mind that going forward the external drive must be connected prior to launching iTunes or iTunes will revert to the default location and/or give an error upon launch. -

Is it possible to watch purchased TV/Films whilst not connected to internet .?
Why can't you use both your USB ports at the same time? If the dongle is a bit fat, a bit of jiggling might work, it doesn't necessarily have to be all the way in. Hold it still though. I don't know of any way to update the software without an internet connection, sorry.

Why can't I watch tv shows without wi-fi?
I've downloaded tv shows from iTunes but when I am not connected to wifi I can't watch these, it comes up with "unable to open file" however once I have watched a show with wifi and then not connected to wifi i can view it...seems when it's first downloaded and hasn't been watched the issue occurs..
Oh my goodness, it's taken me so long to discover how to reply to this!!! Sometimes the screen switchs so I see the tv show, sometimes I can hear the show but not see it.
Thank you for your help -

many thanksHello 941455254,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
If you are not able to watch TV shows from the iTunes Store on another computer, make sure you've downloaded the latest version of iTunes on that computer:
Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now
Next, make sure you've authorized that computer to play your iTunes Store purchases:
Authorize your computer in iTunes - Apple Support
If the videos do not play after completing these steps, you can find some detailed troubleshooting help in this article:
