Content Purchased from Apple TV Not Transferable?

Hi. First, I'm a newbie to these discussions.
Second, I recently purchased some content through the iTunes store on my Apple TV. The content shows up in my purchase history but is not available for download to my laptop. This seems strange to me as content purchased on my iPhone is transferable and is able to sync.
QUESTION: Is this a known bug and/or how can I resolve?
Thanks,
DANNY

Thanks Alley Cat. Still no go on my end. When I right click on the Apple TV icon in iTunes it only gives me "Turn off streaming" as an option.
Is this a streaming library only - I'm not sure if purchases only sync back to a synced library - when I right click on my AppleTV it says 'turn off syncing' not 'turn off streaming' in the options.
Beware os setting up a new streaming library at this stage as it might wipe your AppleTV clean of purchases - this would clearly be a stupid software feature.
AppleTV really needs a foolproof drag and drop to get purchases on your computer to backup.

    A RAID drive I purchased from Apple is not functioning- something about the battery. Can anyone explain this to me?
    Thank you in advance!

    Tom,
    Some more information would help.  Make, model, etc.  Also, what exactly is the message?  Is it an Alert?  What does the console say?

    You can only transfer purchases from iTunes on the iPad into iTunes on your computer. If you bought the music from another source, you need to use the source app to transfer the music, or you need a third party app to transfer the music.

  • I need to generate a still shot from from a video. I would like to accomplish this task using a single application. If this is not possible with my MacBook Pro as purchased from Apple, please recommend which applications I can purchase.

    I need to generate a still shot from from a video I made with my camera. I would like to accomplish this task using a single application. If this is not possible with my MacBook Pro as purchased from Apple, please recommend which applications I can purchase that include this feature. Thanks in advance.

    For FREE do the following:
    When you get to othe part of the video you want a still shot from, put the video on pause. 
    Take a screen shot:  Apple>Shift>4 - which will produce a cross hair so you can manually select which part of the video you want.Check inside either your Applications or Utility folder for an app called Grab.  Will do the above with just a single click.
    If you still want to purchase software, suggest that you do a Google & MacUpdate search.  This way, you can find exactly what you want.

    Hello,
    Please help me,I can not purchase from apple store becuse it is ask me about the secirty question in my apple ID but I forget my secrity question.
    Thanks,

    If you can't remember them then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox). A month or two ago Apple had temporarily suspended the reseting of security question/answers whilst account security processes were improved, but that may now have finished.

  • My purchases from Apple TV are no longer available on the device.

    I'm not sure what I've done but my purchases from Apple TV are no longer available on the device. They can only be found on Itunes under 'library/tv shows' and 'apple tv/tv shows'. How can I transfer the shows back onto my Apple TV and then erase the files from itunes? Once accomplished, how can I prevent my Apple TV purchses from syncing with my itunes (to save space on itunes, I prefer not to sync purchases from apple tv).
    Thank you in advance for any advice!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You haven't done anything wrong, this is the way it is supposed to work. You cannot sync the content back to the Apple TV and then erase it from iTunes because the Apple TV mirrors iTunes, and if it is deleted from iTunes it will also then get deleted from the Apple TV.
    You might also see this, however I strongly recommend against it.

    I recently migrated my MacBook from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8, using the Snow Leopard CD I purchased from Apple. Since then I have noticed a strange ozone smell coming from the MacBook in the area where the hinges are to open and close the unit. I was told by Apple that it probably is not serious and is coming from the fans in the MacBook. It is true that the smell/odor is more intense when the fans are working. Apple said I should take the MacBook to an Apple Store to have the hardware checked out. Everything seems to be working correctly. I am backing up automatically wirelessly to a Time Capsule, which I had not done until recently, although I had purchased the Time Capsule in 2009. I have not noticed this odor before. Does anyone suspect something more serious that may be going on?

    You may be smelling it because with the new OS the processor is having to work harder causing it to get hotter then it would with the other OS.  I can't say there is nothing wrong, but what could be happening is just that, it's getting hotter so the fan is spinning faster and moving more air so you are getting more of the smell then you would before.  I would still continue to back it up, and take it to the Apple Store at a Genius Bar and have them look at it to make sure.  Was the computer ever in a smoky environment??

  • HT201272 I lost my itunes library, now i tried to retrieve the music i purchased from apple and i am only getting part of it!

    Cant retrieve the music i purchased from apple videos etc,
    I called cust service she want me to pay 49 us dollars for a tech support I told her i dont need tech support i do need my files that i purchased available for download, she insisted I hang up.
    I need help from you guys, I am student full time so no extra cash to pay for apple bills.
    regards

    Sue,
    I recommend an external drive to maintain your music.  All your purchases are held in iCloud...so redownloading should be easy.  Also, Home sharing is a great way to transfer to a new computer, but in the case of hard drive failure your options are limited.  Home sharing is specifically for transferring to another pc.  Good luck!

  • Need confirmation that an iPhone 6 (T-mobile version purchased from Apple Store) works with a European SIM card?

    Can anyone confirm 100% that an iPhone 6 ("contract free" T-mobile version purchased from Apple Store) works with a European SIM card? Has anyone tried it yet? Lots of speculation so far, but no concrete answers yet. Thanks!

    Perhaps and perhaps not. 
    The T-Mobile phone comes with a T-Mobile sim card inserted, so what you need to do is take that sim card out of the phone without activating it and insert the sim card that you want to use in the phone and then activate it.  The phone should and might work then, but only on 2g and 3g - due to the frequency differences you won't be able to get 4g/LTE on the phone.
    Remember if you do this you won't have warranty cover for the phone either - if you buy in the US, then its only valid for the US and no other country.

  • Will an iphone 4 that was originally purchased from apple directly as a factory unlocked phone remain unlocked or will it have now locked to the network it was used on. I've been told by carphone warehouse that the iphone will lock to first sim used in it

    Will an iphone 4 that was originally purchased from apple directly as a factory unlocked phone remain unlocked or will it have now locked to the network it was used on. I've been told by carphone warehouse that the iphone will lock to first sim used in it (in this case Orange) and will need to be unlocked again. Just wanted the view of anybody who knows about this for sure. Thanks

    If you bought it directly from Apple as unlocked it should be unlocked for all networks. There are phones sold that WILL lock to the first carrier it is used with, but this does not apply to phones where the receipt says "unlocked".
    I have not had good experiences with Carphone Warehouse.

  • What type of adapter/ converter would I purchase from Apple if traveling to France? Does Apple even offer one?

    What type of adapter/ converter would I purchase from Apple if traveling to France? Does Apple even offer one?

    The power supplies used by Apple can be used with any line voltage between 100 and 240 volts so you done need any changes there.
    What you will need is pin adapters because the European socket require different shaped pins. You can get the pins adapters at any hardware store quite inexpensively.
