Can't rent movies after recent OS update

Any one experiencing this too?

Thanks, I just tried that and I'm getting a message that says "Apple TV cannont connect to iTunes server".
Netflix is working fine.

and NEVER do a software update unless you've got a clone of your startup drive so you can restore your system to it's working state if something goes wrong.

Coldfusion 64 bit windows installer stops working after recent microsoft update

Coldfusion 64 bit windows installation stops working after recent microsoft updates and how I worked around it.
My question is at the end.
Trying to deploy coldfusion 9 enterprise 64 bit trial version onto a Windows 2003 64 bit datacenter OS with all OS updates from MS (as of 4-7-2011).
Steps taken (remember, this is all 64 bit):
1. Installed the base OS which was slipstreamed with SP2.
2. Checked w/ microsoft and installed 63 OS updates.
3. Launch the CF9 trial exe.
4. As soon as the first screen finishes (the one that looks like it is extracting files) then the second screen pops up (the one that simply says CF Adobe Coldfusion 9) and the progress bar quickly moves 95% to the right and the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.
5. After a moment of incredulous silence (and retrying/rebooting, etc), I started to google it. I found nothing. However, I did find a post (thanks dspent!) that was helpful in that it told how he was able to get at a log file of sorts, by pre-extracting the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file and launching the adobe_cf.exe by hand. (Dspent's install snafu was different than mine, but his post was very valuable and got me started in the right direction.)
6. Got a copy of rarunzipper and extracted the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file.
7. From the windows directory created by step 6, I launched adobe_cf.exe.
8. Same thing (the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.).
9. I examine the hs_err_pidxxxx.log file (where the xxxx is a number).
10. I see inside that file an ominous message: "A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime" then "Problematic frame ntdll.dll" and then "The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code".
11. OK, so now I am thinking ntdll.dll !! Native code !! It is like Java is telling me that for some reason it can't dance with the OS.
12. On a hunch, I decided to test a CF install again on a server with just the base install of W3K3 64 SP2 (ie: skipping step 2 above this time).
13. Bingo! That install works.
14. Therefore, one of the 63 patches I had downloaded from MS had triggered a problem with the CF installer.
15. Back on the first server (the one with the MS security patches installed and the one that CF won't install on). In the CF file adobe_cf.lax (one of the files extracted in step 6) there is a line that mentions where the install gets it's java. Find that file, and check java version installer is using. It is using 1.6.0_14-b08.
16. Off to the Java website, and there is a newer version of java (1.6.0_24-b07). Downloaded and installed it.
17. Modify a line in adobe_cf.lax :
   before
     lax.nl.current.vm=resource\\jre\\bin\\java.exe
   after
     lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\program files\\java\\jre6\\bin\\java.exe
(that assumes that you let step 16 install to the default location)
Save the file.
18. Run the install ... ** IT WORKS ** !
Obviously, the built in java provided with the CF installer is no longer compatible with some change introduced by some recent MS update on the W2K3 64b SP2 platform.
And now the interesting part. Although I forced the installer to used the new java, it did not incorporate it into the cf build (ie: in jvm.config, you still see c:/coldfusion9/runtime/jre AND the version of java.exe that is in that directory is the original version, not the newer version I forced the installer to use).
On the surface, CF seems to run OK, but I have not done any application testing yet.
And finally my
** QUESTION **
Would it be appropriate to simply point the java.home var to the new java directory? I see that the directory structures and files are not exactly the same (close though) so I certainly don't want to break things by doing this, but instinct tells me that if the installer broke using the older version, then something else is gonna break down the road if I don't use the new version. On the other hand, the differences in the directories and files is enough that it makes me very nervous, with my limitied java skill set, to make this decision.
Thanks in advance!!

Hi Byron,
Wow great post no doubt much of the information will be useful for those on Win03 SP2 +. Have to say not come across similar problem on Win08 r2 SP1 +.
So to your question. Adobe security bulletin (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/894/cpsid_89440.html) recommends running CF8 and CF9 with JVM 1.6.0_24. The bulletin does not say how to do that. I take you installed JDK and not just JRE 1.6.0_24? Post install of JDK follow these steps:
Stop CF - SERVICES.msc stop "ColdFusion 9 Application Server".
Take a copy of CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config - so you got a backup.
Edit CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config find line "java.home=" and comment it out eg:
#java.home=C:/ColdFusion9/runtime/jre
Add new line like so and save jvm.config:
java.home=C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_24/jre
Note there the slashes and the location of the JRE (runtime) - you need to point to the one in JDK because the other JRE in C:\Program Files\Java\jre6 will be missing a DLL.
Start CF via SERVICES.msc.
HTH, Carl.

Can't rent movies/tv shows on apple tv and iphone

I've just recently updated my apple id to my current email address. All of my purchases show up with no issues. However, now, I can't rent movies or tv shows from my Apple TV and my Iphone (I can purchase music on my Iphone with no issue). I've even performed a restore on my Apple TV with no luck. I can rent them with no problem on my MacBook Pro. I'll wait for the download to complete and AirPlay from my Iphone to my Apple TV. Netflix, Home Sharing and all other services function just fine. All devices are on the same WiFi network as well. Even running the System Status report, everything's in the green. I'm frustrated and lost on how to correct this issue. All seem to work fine before updating my email address which has me thinking there was a glitch with that. Please help!!!

I actually had to go to the Genius Bar to get this solved. They made some adjustment, reloaded iTunes, and then it worked. Sorry, I can't tell you exactly what they did.

HT4859 I am unable to recover a rented movie after changing one iPad for another. Music and books were easily restored

I am unable to restore a rented movie after Changing out my iPad for a new one. All music and books were restored easily

PS - have found other posts indicating that clips smaller than 2s or sometimes 5s, or "short files" can cause this. Modern style editing often uses short takes ! Good grief I cannot believe Apple. Well I deleted a half a dozen short sections and can export, but now of course the video is a ruined piiece of junk and I need to re-do the whole thing, the sound etc. which is basically taking as much time as the original. And each time I re-do it I risk again this lovely error -50 and again trying to figure out what thing bugs it via trial and error instead of a REASONABLE ERROR MESSAGE POINTING TO THE CLIP IT CAN'T PROCESS. What a mess. I HATE this iMovie application - full of BUGS BUGS BUGS which Apple will not fix obviously, since I had this product for a few years and see just hundreds of hits on Google about this error with disappointed users. Such junk I cannot believe I paid money for it and Apple does not support it with fixes !!!
If anyone knows of a GOOD reasonably priced video editing program NOT from APPLE I am still looking for suggestions. I want to do more video in future, but obviously NOT with iMovie !!!

After recent FF updates, many menu CONTENTS are gone!

After recent Firefox updates (most likely during August 2014), several pop-up menus and the like no longer show the actual content. The menu frame and some buttons still appear, but the main "business" part of the menus are gone!
For example, the Firefox Tools->Options menu shows NOTHING but an empty frame and the "OK", "Cancel", and "Help" buttons.
This is difficult to explain in words, but since I don't see any way to post images here, allow me to link to my post on the Mozillazine forum where image posting is allowed:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2872799
The problem definitely exists in FF 32.0.2 and 32.0.3, but I suspect it existed earlier. The same problem exists on every Windows 7 computer I own.

hello, please try to disable the ghostery addon and see if you can still reproduce the issue then...

Can't rent movies in iTunes 8.2.1 with release of iTunes 9

I started renting movies from the iTunes Store a few weeks ago. Especially when I became aware of the 99 cent movies of the week specials. I have rented about 20 movies in all so far and have enjoyed the feature so far.
With the announcement of the release of iTunes 9 today, I was eager to download the new version to try it out. I discovered on the download page that it does not work with G3 Macs (which mine is.)
Sad but perfectly happy with iTunes 8.2.1, I thought nothing more of it. A bit later, I got the fancy to check the 'Movies of the Week' to see what was new this week. When I tried to rent 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon', I was told that I could not rent it until I upgraded to the new version of iTunes. Already knowing I can't due to lack of G3 support, I moved onto other movies.
It now appear that if you are running iTunes 8.2.1, you can no longer rent movies from the iTunes Store. I clicked on some 20 different 'Rent movie' buttons and all gave the same result. I had to upgrade to rent it.
Searching the Apple.com site, I came up empty. Checking the web, in general, also yielded no answers. Anyone have any more info about this?

Great news / sad news time...
*NOTE: What I about to say is not supported by Apple as iTunes 9 was not designed to work on a G3 Mac. Your results may vary. Also, always have a viable backup of your iTunes Library before upgrading to a new version of iTunes just in case something happens or you don't like the new version. That way you can revert back easily like nothing happened.*
For those of you still running a G3, you may be able to run iTunes 9. I have a Summer 2001 iMac (DV SE) G3 700Mhz Mac; 16MG GPU. While Software Update didn't show the iTunes update and the download page said it required G4 or higher, I downloaded it anyway and installed it just for kicks. And... so far so good...
It does seem to run a bit slower which is to be expected. It was not made to run on G3 and it is more media intensive than iTunes 8.x but it does work fine and is very, very usable. I was able to rent movies again and just updated both my iTouch and iPhone to 3.1 (3.1.1 for the iTouch)
There are features you won't be able to use due to hardware requirements. In my case, I don't play any video on my computer as any video (streamed or on hard drive) studders and skips too much to be viewable. I transfer all video (music videos, rented movies and purchased movies) to my iPhone and watch it on the TV.
I like the new features and am glad it works. The other sad thing about it working but not being 'officially' supported is that a future update may not work. Now I know how the jailbreakers feel...
But at least I got this far. Yea!
FYI for those out there rockin' the G3!

If you are positive it's not actually a 5G iPod Video, then you should be able to.

HT1657 I live in switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language. Is there a way to change the language to the original language when renting?

I live in Switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language...is there a way to change the language of the movie I rent from Itunes back to original language?

Hi Zanaro,
It is an Apple isuue same as when you want to buy or download from the iTunes store.
I bought and registered (also credit card from Australia) mi iPhone 4s
Now when I came to Switzerland I should have NOT used my Australian details but registered everything here in Switzerland with Swiss credit card and probably a swiss email account.
My problem is opposite to yours, I can only download movies in English!!!!
What Apple could have done at least is give an option on undertittles so at least some movies are understud. It is no problem for myself but when I have friends over that do not understand the language we have problems.
I have had talks in Apple stores in Zuerich also in smaller Apple outlets, they all know about it as it is a common not problem but nuicance with Apples.
I hope I could shed some light to your problems but I think we can only hope that Apple will change theyr attidude to this **** situation.

Can i rent movies to my ipad directly

Can I rent movies to my Ipad directly, or do I need to rent through my computer and transfer to my ipad??

Sure. I do it regularly. There is one minor difference...
If you download to the computer, you get to choose which IOS device you will use to watch it. If you download directly to your IOS device (iPad), you've already made your choice.
