Can't move movie from itunes library back to itouch

Agreed to have latest version update downloaded to itouch; went back to itouch and noticed movie that was purchased on itouch suddenly was not there. It is on computer under "purchased on itouch" and in itunes library. When I try to move movie back to itouch a prompt comes up and tells me I am not authorized to watch this movie on this computer and it will not move over to itouch. Attempted to "buy" it again thinking it would tell me it was already purchased and would allow me to download for free - but instead it acknowledged that I had already purchased and it asked me if I wanted to purchase again!

In iTunes, add your movie to your library by selecting File>Add to Library.  Once in iTunes click on Movies on the left under Library, highlight the movie in question and go to Advanced>Create iPod or iPhone Version.  Sync this version to your iPhone.

    You need a third party app in order to do that. Here is one app that will do it.

  • Two Marvel (Disney) movies removed from iTunes library

    I have had two movies (Thor and Captain America:The First Avenger) , removed from my iTunes library.
    I have chatted with support and they say the content provider has removed the content, thus my purchases are no longer available.  However, if I search iTunes, the movies are available for purchase.  I discovered the Disney Movies Anywhere app and was able to view the movies there, but that still doesn't put the movies back in my iTunes library and thus I cannot watch them on my apple tv.
    I asked for a credit to repurchase the movies, but Apple refused.
    Anyone have this same issue and tips for remedying the situation?
    Thanks

    Hmm, it is only very recently (about 6 months ago I think) that the policy on Music changed. Prior to that you would be routinely reminded to back up all purchases (immediately after the successfully completed download), unless of course you ticked an option not to be reminded again. The change in policy (in our favour) would have been noted in the small print that neither you or I read when upgrading iTunes, though we say that we have.
    Again I'm still not certain if audiobooks are excluded from both "Music" and "Books". One would hope that they belonged to one category or the other in respect of redownloading. In the past, in the event of an absolute disaster, fatal hard-drive crash, fire etc. some users have been able to prevail upon the charity of the iTunes store staff who would occasionaly grant a second, but never a third, download of past purchases.
    The restictions on different types of media are ultimately imposed by the rights holders, not Apple. It is in Apple's interests to offer the same terms as their competitors, so my guess is that nobody currently offers unlimited repeat downloads of movies. Certainly the unique codes you get on some DVDs/Blu-Rays are one-time only.

  • Have new computer- cannot move song from itunes library to the ipod

    How do I move songs from the itunes library to the ipod?  Have tried dragging & dropping it will not
    work.  Song is downloaded onto itunes library, but will not go onto ipod

    So how exactly are you wanting to or trying to add content to your iPod?  Manually or via automatic syncing?  Do you have content stored in your iTunes library that you can play? Any error messages when you try to add or sync content to it?
    What didn't work? Need A LOT more detail here in order to assist you.

  • Cannot Move Apps from Itunes Library to my touch

    Have a touch with software version 1.1.5. I have downloaded apps and they currently reside in a folder in my Itunes library. However, there is no Apps tab under my "device" and I cannot get the apps to synch to my IPOD Touch. They are only on my PC. I have updated my software but cannot get the Apps from the library to the device. Any help?

    Apps are only available on ios 2 or later.

  • Can't put songs from iTunes Library onto iPhone 4S

    I finally got my laptop back from the repair shop after many months of being a whimp and not wanting to take it in, but then I finally grew a set. Anyway I re-authorised my computer, but now it wont allow me to move songs from my iTunes Library onto my phone. Why is this? At first I thought, perhaps it's my USB lead, but after trying four (no idea how I've managed to collect so many) it seems not the case. Help!

    All is good, I hadn't turned on the 'Move music manually' or something! Silly!

  • Ipad mini remote app will connect to my itunes library and apple tv but can't play content from itunes library on the apple tv

    What I am trying to do is very simple, and I am sure I have done it before.
    I have an Apple TV (2nd Gen) connected to Wifi Network (Airport Extreme 802.11n) I want to stream content from the itunes library on my macbook pro over the wifi network to the Apple TV. This works no problem, home sharing is set up and I can see the itunes library under 'Computer' on the Apple TV interface. I can use the Apple Remote to scroll through and play content from my itunes. Works no problem.
    Now I want to use the remote app on my ipad mini to control the apple tv. Using up to date app (Version 3.01) Again, everything looks like it should work. I have turned on Home Sharing on the remote app settings. It works fine and both my itunes library and Apple TV show up on the interface. I can touch the itunes icon and control the itunes on my computer and play music and video on my computer screen. 
    Now when I touch the apple tv icon I can't see my itunes library content to play on the apple tv. I see the below image. If I tap on the icon in the bottom left it takes me back to the screen in the first image. What is the strangest thing is that I can control the apple tv using the gestures interface! This isn't what I want though and I want to be able to see the itunes library on the screen of the ipad and play it on the apple tv. You can see in the video on this link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvEpgcE9KCs). This is what I am trying to do and I just don't understand why I don't get the screen seen at 1:25 in the video. Instead I get the screen seen in the below image.

    OK, Problem solved. Software on Apple TV was VERY outdated. It had been sitting in the box for over a year and needed an update. Problem solved!

  • Can't drag songs from iTunes library to my iPhone.  Nothing has changed.

    I recently purchased some songs from iTunes and added some songs from cd's to my library.  At the time, I was able to copy (drag/drop) some of them to my husband's iphone.  I am now trying to copy them to mine and am not able to.  I've never had a problem with this before.  This is not the original computer that i set up iTunes on...that one was a pc, and it died.  This one is a Mac.  I did have our iphones "synced" with the Mac in the Apple store.  I have tried checking the "Manually manage music and videos" button, but get this message:  The iPhone “Janice816's iPhone” is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?".  I don't want to attempt anything like this for fear of deleting everything.  My iTunes and iPhone have the most current software, also.  Is there an easy answer to this, or does it sound like I'll have to take everything back in for help?  Thanks very much. 

    Iphone will sync or manually manage with one and only one computer at a time.
    Syncing or manually managing to another will indeed erase the current content and replace with the content from the new computer.

  • How can I transfer apps from iTunes library from one computer to another?

    I have been unsuccessful in transferring my music over to my new MacBook from my PC Windows Vista. I even subscribed to MobileMe, but it wouldn't work! So, I have decided to take the time to copy all my music to CDs & do it that way, but how am I going to transfer my apps? If I sync my iPhone with my iTunes library on my MacBook once I have transferred the songs, won't the apps be erased on my phone? Is there a way using MobileMe I could do so? Please please please help.

    Do you have access to an external hard drive that you were using for your computer's backup with your PC which has enough storage capacity for your entire iTunes library?
    If so, using the external hard drive would be a good way to do this. You would transfer your iTunes named folder in your My Music folder on your PC followed by transferring the iTunes named folder from the external hard drive to the Music folder on your Mac - with iTunes quit when doing so. This will transfer all music, videos, 3rd party apps, playlists, etc. from your PC to your Mac.
    If most of your iTunes library includes music purchased from the iTunes store, iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to authorize your new MacBook with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
    With your iPhone connected to iTunes and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    If all 3rd party apps do not transfer from your iPhone to your iTunes library on your Mac, you can re-download purchased apps with iTunes on your MacBook and you won't be charged again as long as you use the same iTunes account that was used to purchase the 3rd party apps.

  • Can't drag files from itunes library (to anywhere) anymore.

    Recently I've noticed I can no longer drag files from the library in my itunes. I can't drag them to playlists, and I can't drag them to the desktop.
    I have repaired permissions and even tried removing the library.xml file and let it generate a new one, but I still get the same result.
    I am on a mac os 10.6.8 Macbook Pro.
    I'm not sure when ths started happening, but I wonder if it has something to do with an itunes update. I have the newest version and always dwnload the updates. I can still add files to the library by control-clicking the files and selecting the option in the dropdown list. This isn't an intentional change in the way the program works is it? Is no one else having this problem??

  • Can't play songs from iTunes library on MacBook Pro

    I can't play anything from my iTunes (10.0) library on my MacBook Pro. When I try to, I get message that song could not be used as original file could not be found, and offer to locate it, and I end up with an exclamation mark against that file. Any ideas how to fix this?
    PS Not having any problems syncing to iPhone and playing music from there.

  • What to move mp3 from itunes library to podcast library.

    Is there a way in which I can move a podcast I downloaded independently and not through the itunes store to the podcast library in itunes?
    Thanks.
    mi

    Interested in this as well. I downloaded podcasts from a website and they showed up in iTunes as regular songs/tracks. I'd really like to be able to have them appear in the Podcasts section instead of with my other songs.
    +(hint hint Apple, you have that item in Info>Options to mark items either Music or Audiobook. a Podcast item would be nice for categorization when we get podcasts that aren't in the iTMS.)+

  • I can't transfer music from Itunes library into my Ipod Touch

    I transfered a music library into a new laptop bu all the song have !!!! and exclamation sign and I can't transfer any songs into my Ipod Touch, can somebody ghelp me??

    Make sure "Manually manage Music and videos" box is checked under Summary tab.
    If the box is already checked and you are still not able to drag it over, highlight the video in movie library and go to iTunes menu ADVANCED and select "Create iPod or iPhone version".  Drag the newly created version over.
