Can't airplay movies - icon disappears when movie starts in iTunes

Hi guys. Had this problem for a little while now. I'm running iTunes 11.4 on Windows 8.1 and an Apple TV in another room. I've had no problems until recently. Anything but movies will play perfectly to the Apple TV. But the second I start a movie, the icon disappears, and iTunes starts acting like there's suddenly no Apple TV. Then when I exit the movie the icon reappears as quick as it went. Even for example I would go from streaming music perfectly, straight into playing a movie. Still the same. No amount of restarts or re-installations on both devices has solved the problem yet.

iTunes prefs > Store.
Tick Show iTunes in the cloud Purchases.

How can I delete movie from my itunes

How can I delete movie from my itunes on cpmputer?

I think I found a solution to this problem. Go into the Video app and tap on TV Shows and then tap on the icon for the show that is downloading. Next to each episode, there is a circle with a square in the middle of it. Tap the square next to each episode and it will disappear both from that list and and from the downloading queue in the iTunes app. When you want to download a particular episode, go back into the show in the Video season and tap on Show Complete Season. Now each episode has its own Download button.
Needless to say, it is insane that when you redeem a season purchase on the iPad, it insists on downloading the entire season.

HT204370 can i download movie trailers in itunes store

hi
can i download movie trailers in itunes store

You can't download the trailers, you can only view them in the store.
If you have an iOS device and are in the US (I'm not sure it it's available anywhere else) then there is a Trailers app :
Features:
• Access hundreds of movie trailers, clips, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and images, available in HD or SD
• Explore an interactive, year-long release calendar that helps you plan when you'll be going to the theaters
• Save favorite movies and theaters for immediate access anytime

Can't upload .mov files to iTunes anymore

Hi! I don't know if this just started when I upgraded to Lion and did all of the recent updates to iTunes, and added iCloud, etc, but suddenly I can't drag .mov files into iTunes like I used to be able to do. I can't add them with the Add To Library menu either. Because of this I can't put them on my iPad. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix? TIA!

Actually, I can't open anything in quicktime anymore. I've tried opening avis, mov, mp4 and m4a files... all give the same error message and number. I've reinstalled both qt and itunes but no luck.

Can not get movies purchased from iTunes to my computer

Is the manually manage music and videos option still selected from under the iPod's Summary tab? What happens when you try to drag files over to your iPod Classic?

TS1721 can i import movies to my Itunes library

can I import movies to my Itunes library

Hi, by default you can only add M4V, MP4 and MOV files. Simply drag and drop them into your library. If you have videos in other file formats (like AVI or MKV) you have two solutions: convert them with a tool like HandBrake. That takes a lot of work and time. Or you use a dedicated tool to import movies in iTunes. I use VideoDrive (www.aroona.net) for this. It will create small references to your videos in iTunes. And it will also add descriptions and covers so they look as nice as officially purchased movies. Keep in mind that if you do not convert the videos, they will not play on iOS devices. VideoDrive (and some others) to support conversions as well. So you always have the choice.
In my case, I add the videos without conversions so they are nicely categorized in iTunes. And the videos I do want to watch on my iPad, I convert later on. You can do this by selecting a video in iTunes and clicking File -> Create new version. Or use the 'Duplicate Video' feature of VideoDrive. I can imagine that this is overkill if you only have a couple of videos, but if you have a lot, it's great to have them all showing up with artwork in iTunes.

I have an ipad2. PLEASE can anyone tell me if I can watch a movie purchased from iTunes without wifi (after I have downloaded the movie and hit play while connected). My husband is going for chemotherapy and the hospital does not have wifi.

Yes, if the movie has been downloaded to the iPad, then you can watch it without Wi-Fi.

Can rent a movie from the iTunes store on my computer, and then stream it to my apple TV (2nd gen)?

Can rent a movie from the iTunes store on my computer, and then stream it to my apple TV (2nd gen)?

Thank you alleycat. I have two rental movies in my iTunes library in the rentals section top left of the window that have not been played. I have home sharing turned on on both my apple TV and my Mac. Both machines are completely software updated. I can see all of my owned movies in the Computer>Library>Movies section of the menus, but neither the rentals themselves nor a rental fouler are anywhere to be found on the apple TV. I dropped by the apple store on the way home from work and they suggested that it should be working just as you described, and suggested a restore, which I've performed. Still no rentals from the Mac library are visible on the apple TV. Any ideas?

IPod touch can't synch .mov files with iTunes.

My iPod touch can't synch .mov files with iTunes. The error message says that the files were not transfered because they can't be read on my device. I'm not able to transfer any mp4 files, either. These are my own short animations, small files (under 2MB). Home sharing is on. I'm trying to synch with the latest version of iTunes on a Windows 7 64-bit machine. Thanks.

See:
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
Yo may have to use a third-party computer program like HandBrake to convert the format to one compatible withthe iPod

Mozilla has nothing to do with a Microsoft product activation key.
That "test" page should be viewed in Internet Explorer and not with Firefox, as it may use ActiveX which isn't compatible with any Mozilla product.

HT203200 How can i solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes??

How can I solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes. The apple support people cannot even figure it out!??

The 2330 error often means some sort of damage to the filing system as might happen if the battery fell out while the disk was in use.
Try running a disk check to see if it finds and fixes any errors.

When i start my itunes, it start immediately but than i am not able to click on anything for at-least 20 minutes.
I have a lot of songs on there from my local drive and also a network drive which is connected to my local hhome network.
Now before when i use to load itunes while it get frozen it used to collect information on 3 songs and i knew their names so went ahead and deleted them but now i dont see it collecting any information and just frozen.
I just got an iphone and also noticed that once i am syncing my iphone and than i cancel the sync it will again freeze.
What could be causing this, please tell me a way where i dont have to erase my library and re scan it.
One important note - My iTunes Media folder location is on my Network Drive. Can that be the reason?
Let me know.
Thanks in Advance,
Jay

The "tap to click" function isn't enabled until a user logs on. You should be able to use the "physical click" (push down on the front left of the trackpad) in the login screen.

HT204406 itunes shuts down when I start up itunes match

I've had itunes match on my computer for some time and I'm nearly finsihed the process of matching all my songs, with only about 300 left to be uploaded out of a total of 8000+. In the past few weeks, when I start up itunes on my computer I get the message "Please sign in again". When I sign in again and start up itunes match, I get the message "itunes has stopped working" and the program shuts down. itunes itself works fine, but the match function appears to have gone haywire. Help!

Right, well after another evening of playing I have sort of resolved this issue...
In one of the albums I was trying to upload I found a song with an error icon next to it (like the iTunes cloud icon but with an exclamation mark in the middle) hovering over the icon said there was an error in uploading this song or something to that effect.
I deleted that song from iTunes completely (whilst retaining the original file) and tried to match again. It worked and all the other songs and albums were matched correctly.
I haven't yet gone back to try to re-add it, I will in the near future and hopefully it will work then but for now my music collection (aside from that one song) is all present and correct.
Hope that helps.
Best wishes,
Jon
