Disk space required to download an iTunes purchase

HHow do I know how much disk space I need available when I want to purchase say a full session of a tv show from iTunes

It will depend upon the length of the episodes, whether they're in HD or SD, and how many episodes there are in the series. As a rough estimate an hour's HD will be between about 2.4 and 2.6 gig, in SD about 700 to 800 meg - the size of an episode should be shown on its description page in the store

What are the disk space requirements for CC2014?

Yes, Adobe has the system requirements for each INDIVIDUAL app in CC2014 listed, but they're all listed separately. Since I'll be installing the entire suite on my new machine, I'd like to know the disk space requirements for the ENTIRE suite.
Thanks

There's a summary in the table at the bottom of the page here:

HT5731 how do i download a itunes purchased movie onto a flash drive

HOW DO I DOWNLOAD AN ITUNES PURCHASED MOVIE ONTO A FLASH DRIVE

If you want to back it up to the flash drive, download it normally, locate the downloaded file, and drag it there.
If you want the active iTunes library on the drive, locate it in the Finder or Windows Explorer, drag it there, launch iTunes with the Option(Mac OS X) or Shift(Windows) keys held down, and point it there.

In Tools/Account Settings/Disk Space I have changed the setting to "To save disk space do not download messages larger than 1000KB", but all are truncated.

This occurred a few months ago when I changed the Disk Space setting to "To save disk space do not download messages larger than 1000KB".
Since then Thunderbird has truncated every message I've received no matter what the size.
Not your fault, but made much more annoying because my server, Telstra (Australia) does not let me read more than two or three messages at a time without a delay, whereas if messages under 1000KB appear in my inbox automatically I do not have this problem.
Would really appreciate a solution, as when I've been away from my emails I can have a number accumulate and it wastes valuable work time waiting to download them.
thanks, Wendy

hi Matt, or someone else
Only rarely do I get an email larger than 1000kb. But not matter how small the email, even if only a few kb, Thunderbird truncates every single one, and after I have "untruncated" a few emails, the server refuses to let me untruncate any more for a few minutes. I have used the Thunderbird Disk Save tool for years previously with no problems, and I think this happened when I changed it from 500 to 1000kb a few weeks ago (may have been due to a Mozilla update). I truncate large files because I pay $45/month for 4GB of usage, with absolutely no option to Telstra because I live in the bush in Queensland and Telstra wireless is our only choice for broadband. I use Windows Security Essentials and don't know how to turn off email scanning in it if indeed it does scan my emails (have always assumed it does, but can't find a way to see if it is). In any case I wouldn't want to have this feature off permanently. This problem with truncating all emails has occurred after I started to use Windows Security Essentials. Any more targetted thoughts please to what I've explained above.

DVD Disk Space Requirements - Best Performance vs. Quality

I put together an iDVD 8 project that has about 135 minutes of content. When I go to burn the DVD using the Best Performance setting, is says it takes about 7gb (and I need to use DL). When I switch to the Professional Quality setting the disk space requirements are about half (almost to the point I can use a single-layer DVD). It seems it should be the exact opposite where more detailed, less compressed images should take more disk space.
Can someone explain this apparent contradiction? Thanks.

Google and learn about MPEG2 compression.... this is the backbone to iDVD. In general you have three encoding options:
CBR: Constant Bit-Rate
Single Pass VBR (variable bit-rate)
Two-pass VBR
CBR keeps the bit rate constant and therefore is the fasted way of encoding.
VBR will vary the bit rate. Scenes with a lot of motion get a higher bit rate, static scenes a lower bit rate.
Two pass VBR will analyze the entire sequence on the first pass to determine where and how high or low to go with the bit rate and then on the second pass, do the actual encoding. The two pass method may determine that you can go with a much lower average bit rate thus saving precious disc space. This method also takes twice as long!
But, that is just the math. Some sequences look better via CBR while others look better with two-pass VBR. Unfortunately, there isn't really a way to determine this prior to the lengthy encoding process. The best thing one can do is keep content as short as possible. If I had 135 minutes of material and I was using iDVD, I would want to create 2 DVDs instead of one. But that's me.

JDK1.4.2_02 disk space requirements (bugs 4842602, 4842606)

I can't find any way to install J2SE 1.4.2_02 on a machine with 70MB free on the C: drive. The installer reports "insufficient space on drive C:" and bombs out immediately, without giving me an opportunity to specify a different drive to install it on. I've looked at the description of disk space requirements in the release notes and it explains which components take up space in which drives, and in theory I should have been able to install it on my system - but I can't. I've set %TEMP% to a different drive in case the problem was caused by the temporary files used by the installer, no help.
Bugs 4842602 and 4842606 seem to match the symptoms I'm getting i.e. the installer insists on having 371MB free space regardless of the actual installation requirements. These two bugs are marked as fixed in "mantis-rc" and "tiger". What do these names relate to? I can't find any way to relate these to J2SE versions.
Can anyone advise on a workaround for this problem, or help me work out what "mantis-rc" and "tiger" are?
Thx,
Peter Humphries

I was aiming to install the JDK on a different drive, which had masses of free space. As I understand it, some components have to go on the system drive anyway (the public JRE I think) but most of it would have been installed elsewhere. However, the installer bailed immediately and didn't give me the chance to say what components I wanted or where I wanted them installed.
JavaSoft say the bug has been fixed in "mantis-rc" and "tiger". Is there any way to work out what releases these names correspond to?

How can I download previous iTunes purchases onto a new iPod using someone else's computer?

Hi,
I've brought an ipod shuffle and need to download my itunes purchases but I don't have access to my own computer for another couple weeks. How can I download from itunes? I'm getting a message that the friend's computer I'm using can't use a different apple ID for 90 days - I'll be long gone by then and back with my own computer!!!
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Multiple people can indeed use multiple Apple IDs on the same computer in multiple user accounts as long as they do not use iTunes Match, automatic downloads or re-download any past purchases. However, if you'll read the KB article I posted a link to you'll see that for the purposes of those services a computer can only be associated with one Apple ID every 90 days. If the OP associates their friend's computer with their Apple ID and downloads purchases from the purchase history the owner of the computer will be locked out from using iTunes Match, automatic downloads or re-downloading any past purchases.
It's not that the friend will be unable to use iTunes at all, but what the OP wants to do will associate their friend's computer to thier Apple ID for 90 days which may cause the friend some inconvinence.

How can I download previous iTunes purchases from older apple id after my Mac is associated with my current one?

I have 4 MacBooks running MtnLion, iPad3, iPhones 2,3gs,4,and 4s,Time Capsule, and Apple TV....
I have 2 Apple IDs [email protected], and [email protected]
Almost all of my media is associated with gmail Apple ID. I want to retrieve my previous purchases, but don't need this Apple id aside from that.
All of my computers and devices are associated with [email protected] id (I've set automatic downloads on all devices for [email protected])
Now itunes will not let me download purchases I made on [email protected] for 60 days.....
I actually wiped my 15" Mac pro, installed MtnLion and set it up with the me@gmail Apple ID (both icloud and itunes) just to get my previous itunes purchases. I downloaded about half, and then got sidetracked. Now when I go into itunes on it and try to download the rest, it says this computer is associated wth another apple id and can't download for 60 days!!!
I tried deauthorizing, but to no end.

Had to buy a new computer and not able to download my ITunes purchases

I had to buy a new computer and I am not able to download my old purchases. I didnt back up my purchases on my old laptop. What can I do to download my old purchases? Thank you

+I didnt back up my purchases on my old laptop.+
Woops, big mistake not backing up, since you only get ONE download from the store; no more downloads will be coming to your new PC.
Do you at least have your purchases on an ipod? You could authroize the new PC, then do itunes menu > file > transfer purchases from ipod.

I want to download my previous purchases from my computer to my IPhone 4. Everytime I plug my phone into my computer it says Apple mobile devices service is not started. How do I fix this?

Hello EFierro79,
I find it easiest to download my purchases directly to my iPhone. You don't even need to connect your iPhone to iTunes. As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the items, you will not be charged.
You can find the steps to do this under the section titled "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on iOS" in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
Additionally, you can follow the steps in the article below to resolve the error "This [device] cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device Service is not started."

I cannot find a link to authorize my PC (running Windows 7) to download my ITunes purchases.

I cannot seem to find the link to authorize my computer, which is running Windows 7, to download my previous ITunes purchases. The process is supposed to be opening teh Store link and clicking on "Authorize My Computer", but I can't find a link that says Authorize My Computer. Can anybody help me with this?

Hello Mikevande,
It osnds like you are unable to find the Store menu bar item to authorize your computer. By default the menu bar is hidden in iTunes. This article outlines how to make it show so you can sign in and authorize the computer:
iTunes: Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5610
To turn on iTunes menus in Windows 8 or 7, do one of the following:
Press the Alt key.
This will turn the menus on and off temporarily. This will change back to the default, the iTunes menus being turned off, when you next close iTunes.
Or
To keep the iTunes menus active, change the setting by selecting the Menu icon in the upper-left, and then selecting Show Menu Bar. Alternatively, you can press Control-B.
