Cannot download movies to Imac.

When selecting and trying to download a movie I immediately get a message that says that connection cannot be established and to check my connections.
My connections are fine.
The screen shows a movie being down loading but it is in fact jammed and there is nothing going on.But the part that takes my money works just fine!
This is one of the most frustrating pieces of equipment I have ever owned and am tempted to throw appleTv out the window and pick up current movies from the big red box ouside my Superstore instead at $1.99 each.Got to get food anyway.
Anyone out there got a fix because no help is forthcoming from Apple--another seperate beef.

download movies to imac?
appletv's dont have storage other then cache there are no movies on it to download to your computer

  • HT1657 Tried to rent movie but saying error cannot download movie at this time?

    Tried to download a rental the other day when trying to download it said I did not have enough space when I did this is due to my iPad having an expired previously rented movie.
    Still after this had gone it was saying I did not have enough space. I reset my iPad to then hopefully start downloading my rental and it is now saying error cannot download movie at this time?
    Help.
    Thanks

  • Cannot download movie at this time - error

    cannot download movie at this time - error
    Have purchased movies from itunes adn they show on the ipad with the cloud symbol but will not download to the ipad, the above error keeps appearing??

    All things being equal - there is no reason why you should not be able to download the rentals right to the iPad. But things like an interruption in the Internet connection - a hiccough in the connection - could pause the download or cause a problem. You can try to resume the download, or see if you can download the rentals on your computer and then move them to the iPad.
    You could try restarting or rebooting the iPad and see of the downloads will resume. You can try signing out of your ID, restart the iPad and sign in again and then try to resume the downloads.
    Once you tap on Rent or Install or Buy - the iTunes cash register rings up the purchase so that's a done deal now. You can't cancel it. You can contact iTunes support if the movies will not download and they should be able to get you through it - one way or the other.
    If you need it ....

    If for some reason the movie cannot be downloaded on your computer, I would recommend reporting an issue with the purchase.

  • HT1660 iTunes library files full and cannot download movie but plenty of open disc space?

    iTunes library files full and cannot download movie but plenty of open disc space?

    To clarify, currently on the 2TB external drive are music and videos. I want to split them up and hopefully save some space - and maybe foresee problems in the future when I hit max capacity on the 1TB external, and think about a 4GB (not the best option I see at this time) or another 2 2TB drives.
    Doesn't the Library file just save locations when iTunes closes down so everything should be OK? I mean, the prog can recognize everything, it just won't download to anything, even if I move from the external drive an older movie to the new drive, it refuses to "see" the movie so I can download it.

  • Mini cannot download movies

  • Movie (rental) download stopped in error. Cannot download movie.

    I pressed pause on Apple TV (2) remote by mistake twice, thus stopping movie (rental) download. Now unable to find. When trying to download again, message reads "You have already rented this movie, go to Settings and check in Download". There is no "Download" option in settings. Cannot purchase the movie either, same message. No trace of the movie but it has disappeared from my Wish list so system def thinks I have it. Have tried "check rentals' in Settings but the little circle just keeps going round and round and round. Any ideas of how to rent this movie??? Ihave not been charged for the movie so am confused, cannot download it but not charged for it. Any ideas? Thank you!!

    Try logging out and back into your iTunes account, this worked for me as the rental tab (which had been invisible until then) appeared and my movie was there. Check rentals is a dead end.

  • I cannot download movies I bought on Itunes

    When I purchase a movie from I tunes, I cannot download it by plugging into my computer.  I can however download it from my wireless internet.
    Then if I plug my I pad into to update anything like my playlist it erases the movies I downloaded wirelessly.

    1. You probably do not have enough space on iPad.
    2. Download movies to iTunes (computer) if you do not have enough space.

  • Since installing 7, I cannot download movies or view purchased movies from iTunes .  Only movie section of iTunes freezes.  Any suggestions, short of reset?

    Since installing. 7, I have lost the ability to download movies on iPad and view purchased items, therefore I can' transfer from computer to iPad either.  Movie section of iTunes appears frozen, but all other sections of iTunes work.  Short of reset, any suggestions?  I want 6 back!

    Also, this just started happening a few days ago. I was downloading iTunes Extras files just fine about a week ago.

  • 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.

  • I cannot download movies/ tv from iTunes Store and I do not have any restrictions on? Please help?

    Hi
    Hope you had a great Xmas ! I got some iTunes vouchers and wanted to download some movies and music. Music was fine but can't download any movies.  The music pages are white and movies etc have black background and will not let me play previews.
    Any help appreciated

    Also I forgot to mention that when all this was happening, I wanted to Retore my iPod but this option was also greyed out in the summary section and it wouldnt let me do it, therefore I hooked it up to my Windows XP machine and was able to restore the iPod. Now it was formatted for Windows. I hooked it up to my Mac machine and got all the same problems but it downloads everything from itunes to the iPod except purchased music.
    So I opened iPod Updater and it said that it cannot update the iPod because it if formated for Windows. It also says if I now want to Restore it, I need to connect using a firewire cable whereas before I was using a USB cable because it said the Nano is not compatible with a firewire cable.
    Arghhhh.

  • Cannot download movie into my Macbook from the cloud...

    I have purchased a movie from iTunes on my iPad Mini. Now I want to download it via the cloud into my library on my Macbook Pro. I had very little issues with downloading from the Cloud, since I have purchased it from my iPad. But this particular movie does not want to download into my Macbook. I tried to click on the Cloud icon many times with no avail. And I have it unhidden in my Purchases. And strangely, if I want to purchase the movie again, the buy HD button will not let me make the purchase of this movie. After all the posts I found here in Apple Support Communities, I cannot simply download this movie into my Library as I prefer not to connect my iPad Mini to my Macbook to transfer the movie. Any other evidence to resolve this problem?

    OK, it is possible that all of the songs have not been processed by iTunes Match.  The process tries to match songs first, then for those it can't match, it will upload a copy.  Uploading can take hours, sometimes days and often new users of Match try to access songs before they have been uploaded.  They see the song titles, but the songs are grayed out.
    What can be confusing is that many times most of the songs on a CD will match, but one or two will not and have to be uploaded. 
    You might want to read some of Apple's support documents related to iTunes Match.  Also, if you have not changed your view options in iTunes, you should do that.  With Match enabled, you have two new view options.  One will show you the status of all your tracks, so you can see if they were matched, uploaded, marked as having been purchased though the iTunes store, or marked as ineligible for the service. 
    I have posted all of the support documents together at this link.

  • Cannot download movie purchase on Ipod touch

    Im somewhat challenged when it comes to this. IM 47. LOL I purchase a movie on Itunes. It was downloaded on my ipod touch, from one computer in my home with windows vista on it. I bought a new laptop and tried to sync my ipod to it. I noticed after that,that my movie was gone, from my Ipod touch, but was instilled onto my laptop in Itunes. But it is not on my old computer anymore in itunes, I have a ton of music that I downloaded to my old computer and have on my Ipod. I am afraid if I sync now to my laptop I will lose all my music. Im very confused. I just need to figure out why the movie is not showing up in My Itunes account in both computers.................HELP>

    Not sure what you are asking or what you have done.
    You get one and only one download. You can them move/copy the content ( movie in this case) wherever you want it. Your music/movies will only be where you put them.
    The ipod touch will sync with one and only one computer at a time. If you sync to another, it will first erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
    You should move everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to the new one.
