Cannot download movies and music purchased from itunes to ipad

I have an iPAD 2 with WIFI/3G capabilities.  Currently I am unable to download movies and music purchased from iTUNES.  The only thing I can download with no problems are APPS.  I don't have a laptop/desktop with iTUNES, so that is out of the question.  Here is the kicker, my friend who has an iPAD 2 with WIFI only, is able to download anything and everything using the same WIFI connection.  Is anyone else facing the same problem?

Check settings, general, restrictions.  Make sure I tunes is set right.  Otherwise, log onto your account in I tunes, and make sure there is nothing strange going on with your accout.  If it works in the app store, it should work in I tunes.

    You have to have an internet connection, either wireless or through a computer with iTunes.  When you choose Software Update you can only update to the latest version for your iPod Touch, iOS 6.1.6

  • Why does it take so long to download movies and tv shows from itunes

    I can download songs pretty quickly from itunes, but movies and tv shows take anywhere from 12-24 hours.  Is there anything I can do to speed this up?

    If you are downloading at work more than likely your bandwith is being throttled by your company.  If your using a Mac, download a little utility called "MenuMeter" It runs in the menu bar and will display your connection speed.If your on a windows machine similar utilities are available as well. Once you find out what your speed is.it'll be much easier to trouble shoot!

  • Cannot Sync Movies or Music to from iTunes on Mac Mini to Apple TV

    Hello,
    In itunes on my Mac Mini I can see my ATV and when I click on the ATV the only tab I have is the photos tab. I don't have a Movies tab to sync my movies. I have my ATV and itunes at the latest level and this is the first time I have tried to sync movies. Up until now I have just streamed the movies from the Mini, but I have 150Gb of space on the ATV that I would like to use.
    I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks.

    I too need the answer to this question. My Apple Tv was syncing just fine with iTunes up until I updated to iTunes 8.1 and then left town for a week. I returned, and my Apple TV would not appear in the Devices list in iTunes.
    I tried connecting the AppleTV both via wireless and ethernet, and it never appeared in iTunes. Then I set up sharing between iTunes on my computer and the Apple TV and it finally showed up in the Devices list in iTunes, but it only shows the 'Summary' and 'Photos' tabs and will not sync music or movies with the computer. It was all working just fine before. I don't really care what happened (though Apple should) and would be happy to just get the Apple TV syncing again. How do I re-link it as a primary?
    For what it's worth, the Apple TV does not show up in "iTunes Preferences > Apple TV > Apple TVs connected to iTunes". I've restarted the Apple TV, the router, and my computer, with no improvement in the situation.
    Message was edited by me to add some info.

  • Trying to use music purchased from iTunes store with a home movie

    I am making a home movie for family use only in either iMovie or Final Cut Pro, but neither app will allow me to use music purchased from iTunes store. Why not? It's not a licensing issue b/c there is no distribution other than my family at a big birthday party. The music imports but acts as if it has no audio once the file is imported to either program. help!
    macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  
    ibook   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Put the purchased songs into a playlist. Set iTunes burning options to burn AUDIO CDs. Burn the playlist to an audio CD (you can use a CD-RW if you don't want to waste a blank). After it is done, reimport the tracks off the CD. Now use the reimported versions in iMovie or FCP and they should work fine now.

  • HT1206 How do I find out an OLD password from 2006-2008. I have 3,000 pieces of music purchased from iTunes during those years that cannot be authorized because I cannot remember the password from that era. What can I do?

    How do I find out an OLD password from 2006-2008. I have 3,000 pieces of music purchased from iTunes during those years that cannot be authorized because I cannot remember the password from that era. What can I do?

    If you can't remember your password or security answers and don't have access to the email address (you didn't have a rescue email address on the account ?) then you can try contacting Support in your country and seeing if you can get the password reset and access to the account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (they should also be able to reset the security questions)
    If you can then update the primary email address on the account to be an address that you have access to.

  • I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that are not synced with my iTunes account on my computer.  How can I sync my phone and iTunes on my computer without losing what is on my iPhone?  (original computer was stolen)

    I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that I would like to sync with my iTunes account on my computer.  The CDs were on my original laptap also, but it was stolen and I set up the iTunes on my new computer.
    When I try to sync I get a message indicating that the iPhone iTunes will be replaced with the computer iTunes.
    How can I sync and retain both iTunes?

    Music is designed to sync in one way only, and that is from iTunes to the phone. There is the expectation that you would backup the computer to save this data. There are 3rd party solutions to try and recover music from the phone to put back into a blank iTunes library.

    Hi jaswantfromlondon,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact context for when or how these tones disappeared. If your tones have disappeared and you are having issues restoring them, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following article helpful (it refers specifically to 8.1.1, but the steps may more generally apply to your situation):

  • TS1567 I have an old ipod nano. How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod?

    How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod nano...I believe it is a 2nd generation? I plug it into my computer, but nothing happens!!!

    Hello shay82578,
    It sounds like you are trying to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano.  I found some articles with steps to sync music to your iPod:
    If you are using iTunes 11, you will want to follow the steps in this article:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
    If you are using an earlier version of iTunes, you can follow the steps in this article:
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
    To be able to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano, the music will need to be on the computer rather than streaming from iTunes in the Cloud.  You can find the steps to download your purchased music to your computer's hard drive under the section titled, "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer" in the following article:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Movies and music vanished from iPhone 3Gs

    Hello! I discovered today that mysteriously, all of my movies and music vanished from my iPhone 3Gs. I have not recently synced my phone or updated the software. My iMac is currently on a FedEx truck being shipped out west for a month long vacation so syncing is not an option. Also, when I try to download new stuff from iTunes, the phone tells me there's not enough space when there is plenty since all my music and movies are gone. I called Apple and essentially, I was told that they couldn't help me at this time. Has anyone else had this happen? It's incredibly frustrating as I was planning to watch movies on the plane

    Apparently, data or metadata is corrupted on your phone.  Assuming that your phone was never jailbroken or hacked, the solution is to restore in iTunes using your most recent good backup, but without your computer that's not an option.  Simply syncing with it probably won't work for the same reason you can't download, and risks replacing a previous good backup with corrupted data.
    You can try resetting, but I'm not optimistic - press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears.

  • Help!  I can't get three movies that I purchased from iTunes to sync with my iPod classic.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    When I sync my iPod classic with iTunes, it doesn't download three movies that I purchased from iTunes.  Anyone have any idea why and what I need to do about it?

    We could if we had a little more information.
    What is happening when you try to sync them?
    Any error messages or numbers?
    What version of iOS are you using?
    What country are you located in?

  • I am trying to download video that i purchased from itunes, but everytime i want to resume the process after pausing it, it automatically start the whole downloading process again, how can i eliminate this problem?

    i am trying to download video that i purchased from itunes, but everytime i want to resume the process after pausing it, it automatically start the whole downloading process again, how can i eliminate this problem?

    They don't normally appear in the download screen ... until I attempt to download another movie. Then they just start appearing. If you click edit - a normal movie download has a circle that appears on the left hand side that allows you to select and delete ... these movies don't have that option so you need to find the movie in you list (under movies) and select the download cloud symbol again to stop it downloading ...you may need to do this a number of times before it stops for a while ... or until you try to download a movie then it starts all over again.
    i have logged out of my itunes account. restarted the iPad, removed all movies, restarted the iPad, logged back into my iTunes account and restarted my iPad .... but as soon as I tried to download a single movies ... the other movies started appearing in the downloads again.

  • Using music purchased from iTunes in a slideshow/DVD

    I purchased some music from iTunes to use for a slideshow that I am creating. I want to burn this slideshow to a DVD. Is this possible? I read in another forum that it was not. If this is correct, is there a way to work around this issue?

    Finding "a way to work around this issue" goes directly against the terms of usage for the forums in terms of discussing ways to get around copy protection methods.
    I would offer that my asking for a way to "work around" the problem may not have been the best choice of terms. It is one that is frequently used in other forums when users are discussing how to solve a problem. However, my intent was not to violate either copyright laws or the terms of use of this forum. Certainly it would be very foolish indeed to ask how to do so in a discussions site operated by the same company that produces the software in question!
    The DVD I am working on is for personal use, a slideshow of a family vacation. I purchased the music from iTunes to use in the DVD. I am aware that I can burn several CD's (5?) for each song I buy. I concluded, perhaps incorrectly, that this DVD would constitute one of the allowed burns.
    Copyrighted music is handled differently depending on which iLife application is being used. With Garageband, it is impossible to import DRM music into the program; any editing is obviously out of the question. Yet, the same musical selection can be imported into iMovie, and it is also possible to edit it.
    Perhaps my question should be: Do I have to follow any special procedure when burning a DVD that contains music purchased from iTunes? I remember seeing something about this some time ago; I have not been able to find that post. I was hoping to get the answer in this forum.
