Can TV show episodes downloaded from iTunes be converted?

Can TV show episodes downloaded from iTunes be converted for my non-ipod mp3 player? It's made by Creative Zen and does have a video converter to get files into the right format, but is there something about iTunes TV episodes and their encoding that would prevent this?

In answer to the 2nd part of your question,yes, the files are protected which make them only compatible with iPods, iPhones, etc.

Are you sure to have the full length file in the library? If you start playing it, will it show the full runtime on the controls?

Can't see movie downloaded from iTunes on iPads

Hi. I purchased two movies from iTunes via AppleTV, then downloaded them to my iTunes library. I can see and play them on my computer, but they don't show up in the "shared" tab of the Videos app on either of our two iPads. I've tried force-quitting and restarting the Videos app, turning the iPad on and off, and resetting the iPad; I've quit and restarted iTunes on the computer. Nothing has helped.
All the other movies in the library appear, including others I've purchased and downloaded from iTunes, but not the ones I downloaded today.
Running OS X 10.8.1, iTunes 10.6.3, and iOS 5.1.1.
Help?
Thans.

Ah. iPad 2 can't play 1080p content. Got it. Sorry for the noise.

if i pay to download a book or a tv show from itunes, does it use up my data to watch or read afterwards?

No, only when it downloads. Once it is on your device, you can access it without internet.

Can't transfer video download from itunes to ipod

I downloaded a m4v file from itunes I cannot view video in itunes and cannot transfer file to my 5th gen ipod. When I update my ipod it tell me it won't transfer the file 'because it cannot be played on this ipod' but no problems with transfering music.
Just want to know if this is fault of mine or Apples and what I can do to rectify it.
Any help is appreciated.

Don't know if this will help, first off did iTunes Bill you for the download? If not try going to the Store tab in iTunes and check for purchases! possibly the file did not completly download or was corrupted!

Can movies/music be downloaded from Itunes in Bahamas?

It appears as though Itunes is only available in countries not including The Bahamas. Is it impossible to access Itunes from The Bahamas in order to download music and movies? If so, if I am in the USA, should I download content from Itunes to icloud and access the content in The Bahamas from Icloud - is this possible?

SBCallender,
To make purchases from the iTunes USA Store, you must be in the USA, as noted in the Terms and Conditions:
"The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance."
However, once you buy something, you can take it with you wherever you go. Buy what you need while you are still in the USA, and take it with you. Personally, I would not trust iCloud for this. Instead use a flash drive, iPod/iPad, or laptop.
Also, while you are in the Bahamas, you may purchase CDs and rip them, or you may check and see what MP3 stores are available there. You may purchase MP3s from any available online source and add them to your iTunes library.

HT204081 when in Europe, specifically France, can I access and download from iTunes?

We are heading over to France for a month. I want to know if we will be able to rent movies off iTunes, or should I buy them and save to my computer prior to departing the USA?

Hi Gary ...
If you are not aware, your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

Problems Installing App Downloaded from iTunes Store; Error Code 0xE800000C.

I am unable to install a new app downloaded from the iTunes Store. I can connect with and download from iTunes with no problems. But when I go to install the new app, the installation first appears to proceed okay, but after several minutes a message shows up saying that the app was not installed, and giving this error code: 0xE800000C. During the installation, the progress bar pauses for quite a while at about one-fourth of the way across, then suddenly goes all the way across, and after that is when the message shows up. I also tried installing another app, an earlier version of the first one, with the same result. I have tried rebooting the phone and disabling my computer antivirus. I have been able to install apps to this phone in the past using this same computer. My iPhone has the latest software and I have the latest version of iTunes.
Any ideas how I can resolve this problem?
Thanks.
Geoff

I actually found the answer to my problem. After posting this question I still proceeded to trying to find the answer through internet searches and noticed that my specific Fault Module Name was Quickset.qts. I uninstalled and then reinstalled it and now I can play the videos just fine.
Thank you for taking the time to read. hope this helps someone in the future.

Can music downloaded from iTunes be added to a slide show in Elements 12?

Can music downloaded from iTunes be added to a slide show in Elements 12? I can't get it to load into Photoshop Elements. When I finally get to the file it kind of just disappears. Do I have to get the song from someplace else?

Barbara, I don't know how to get to the artwork to remove it. I saw a post on this forum on how to show hidden files and went to the control panel and followed the instructions. I still can't see any hidden files or artwork. Hope you can tell me where I am going wrong.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

HT203433 I can't consistently disable automatic downloads from iTunes

I keep trying to disable automatic downloads from iTunes (don't want TV shows I've purchased through my Apple TV to download onto my computer), by going to iTunes - Preferences - Store - and it works for a while, then it starts to automatically download these TV shows again when I open iTunes. So it works some of the time, but not consistently. Very frustrating! Can anyone help?

After reading some of the similar posts on here, I tried removing all the items from the iTunes downloads folder on my hard drive, and signing out from the iTunes store. Signing out from the iTunes store solved the problem temporarily, but as soon as I signed in again, the automatic downloads started again. When I looked in the iTunes downloads folder, there they were again - the .tmp files of the TV shows I DON'T want on my computer. Now I have another problem. When I went back into iTunes to check if the Store Preferences were still set to NO automatic downloads, I found those choices greyed out. They were still set to disable automatic downloads (no tick in those boxes) but now I can't change them at all. So I must have thrown out something I needed when I threw the contents of the downloads folder into the trash, and then emptied the trash. I tried to get the trash back using Time Machine, but couldn't find it in there. Sighhhh! I'm at my wits end and now I'm afraid to make things any worse than they already are.

HT204406 Uploaded CD last night. I see it in itunes match. However can only download some of the songs. Few have the Icon to download from Itunes Match, however it is not able to be clicked on. It's a lighter icon then other download ones.

I uploaded a CD last night. I see it in my ituned match on my work cpu. I can download 6 of the 10 songs. The other 4 have an Icon to download from Itunes Match, however it is not able to be clicked on. // See Pearl Jam Ten. I can download almost half the songs. The others remaining I cannot though they say they are available. I've reset the cache, I've closed and reopened Itunes, I have even turned MATCH off and then back on. Nothing is working. Please help. Also the song will not play. If I start the album, it skips over these songs.

The number of Songs that 'matched' is simply a function of the current iTunes Match service process. It is not unusual to have multiple Songs in an otherwise perfectly matched album be uploaded - often it is very possible to find the album in the iTunes Store.
The Artwork does tend to reappear for many over a few days / weeks - however, if your library backup has all Artwork present it would be wise to save the Album Art separately and reapply to Albums not showing art work in the library grid view.
Many of the other performance issues you mention are not typical - though during the past working week or so the Apple Infrastructure has been very heavily loaded with multiples countries having service go-live symultaneously.

Can't find movie I downloaded from ITunes. Any ideas on where I should look.

I can't find the movie I downloaded from ITunes. It hasn't showed up in downloads. Any ideas on where I should look?

In the Videos App. That is where downloaded movies appear and that is where you play them - not in iTunes.
