Downloaded Movie Disappeared!!!

I don't know why when I finished downloading a movie (Death Race from iTunes for 4.99$ CAN last night), I can't find it on my Movies Library. After that, I finally can found it in iTunes Medias by searching in Windows Explorer. So, I want to import the movie file named "download' back to my iTunes Movies Library, but when I double clicked on the file to try to play it, it said that the file can not be played on my machine (because the file is copy protected, I think). What can I do?
In the worst case, if I re-download the movie, will iTunes charge me the money again? I asked this question because when I download an App in the App Store for multiple times, iTunes will notify me that the application is already in my library and if I want to re-download it again. And even if I said YES, iTunes will not charge me money again. But I'm not sure if this happens also for movies.
Anyone can answer me back?

You should contact iTunes store support and explain what happened. They will probably either authorize you to download it again or give you a credit to use to rent it again.

  • Do downloaded movies disappear after one use?

    I am so confused. I downloaded two movies to my 3rd Gen Ipod Nano, and each time after I watch the movie, they disappear from my selection screen. When I scroll to Movies it says "No Movies". They still show up on my computer though.
    Do I have to go back and download them each time? When I connect the IPOD to the port to charge up, it automatically syncs. But no movies, and
    This is my first MP3 player, and yes I REALLY am technically challenged. I bought the IPOD book by Scott Kelby, and while its very informative, it does not address this problem.
    If anyone can help me, it would be much appreciated. Thank you all!

    From the Terms of Sale:
    You have thirty (30) days after downloading a movie to begin viewing. Once you begin viewing, you have twenty-four (24) hours to view the movie (the “Viewing Period”). You may view the movie an unlimited number of times during the Viewing Period. Movies are not viewable after the thirty (30) day period. Stopping, pausing or restarting a movie does not extend the available time for viewing.

  • Serious BUG - Downloaded Movie Disappeared

    I just purchased a movie, started watching it immediately, and a half hour into the movie I paused the movie. I returned to watch the move 30 minutes later, and it had completely disappeared And it was purchased less than two hours ago.
    To continue watching it I have to rent it again. This is a serious bug. Has anyone experienced this before? Any fixes? I tried "Check Downloads" but it says there is nothing to download. How does one get a movie rental refund?

  • Downloaded movies disappear

    I downloaded two movies from a digital camera to IPhoto. The information box in IPhoto shows that the two movies are in the library but they are not visible anywhere. There seems to be no navigation to get me to any files designated as movies. Not good.

    Hi James,
    iPhoto automatically gives all movies a keyword of "Movie"
    Do a keyword search for "Movie" and you will find your movies.
    By the way, you can make a smart album whose criteria is "keyword" is "Movie"
    This way you can see all your movies in one album.

  • Downloaded movies disappearing before they are watched and in less that the 30 days to watch them

    We have downlaoded movies on Apple TV.  They take over two to three hours to download even though we have the fasted wireless router you can buy (bought only 2 months ago) and then after they have been downloaded it is usually a day or two later that we have time to watch them and when we go to view them they are no longer in the available list of movies to watch.  So we have been charged for them but never got to see them. 

    I checked the speeds (coudl not get "speediest.net" but found speedtest.net) adn the speeds were
    Download 23.05 Mbps
    Upload - 2.43 Mbps
    Not sure if that is fast enough but the cable service we have they have rated the service we have as the fastest the provide. 
    Re the 1 or 2 seconds having been viewed and therefore the "clock" starting on the 48 hours - not sure as all we have ever done is click on "rent" and then it starts to down load and it shows that it will be taking forever to download so we leave it to download.  Given it does nto download at the time we "rent it" we ahve to come back to view it another day.  We have seen the movie we have rented at the top of the screen the next day or so (have not actuially validated the time from when it was downloaded to see if maybe the point above applies even thought we do not think we are watching it) adn then when we have time to watch it we go back a few days later (this last time was 7 days) and it is gone. 

  • I've downloaded movies to my itunes but once they are finished they completely disappear. Also today I opened my itunes and over half of my music and movies that actually show up are gone. Can anyone give me some advice on this problem?

    I have downloaded movies through itunes until the latest version came out. Now the movies will download and then disappear. Everything is up to date so I'm not sure what is wrong. Also I opened my itunes today and over half of my music is missing along with several of the movies that do play. Luckily I have all my music saved, but the movies are completely gone. Does anyone have some ideas that could help me?

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • Downloading purchased movie stopped downloading and disappeared, why?

    Downloading purchased movie stopped downloading and disappeared, why?

    Look for a folder called "Downloads" in your iTunes Music folder. If there is such a folder, look for files that would be the partial download and delete those, so that the download starts over from the beginning. Then try again using the "Check for Purchases" command under the iTunes Store menu.
    If that doesn't work and the problem persists, contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the form at the bottom of their web page and explain the problem to them.
    Good luck.

  • Attempted to download a movie and movie disappears from library.

    Attempted to download a movie, looks complete, but unable to sync to iPod... restart iTunes and movie disappears from library.  No files in media folder and iTunes store thinks that it has been downloaded already.  Worked with iTunes account people who were very responsive, but after multiple resends on their side, the problem continues and they suggest a local problem on my side.  Thoughts?

    Hey Jerry... I ended up submitting a formal feedback issue and someone got back to me fairly quickly.  Responses are typically from an offshore team I assume, since they happen at night.  The email address that I have been corresponding with is [email protected] .  I'll keep this string posted if I make any progress... Good luck!

  • HT203167 Just finished downloading movie to my iPad then it started processing & now it disappeared

    Just finished downloading movie to my iPad then it started processing & now it disappeared. Where did it go. The iTunes store said it would just open & play

    It should be in the Videos app :
    If it's not in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

  • So, I rented a movie on iTunes and downloaded, and then when I went to click on it, it said iTunes server not available, so I reset my laptop, and it was there but when I clicked on it it said the same error again, the movie disappeared. What do I do?

    I need help! I payed for this movie, and I don't know why it said can not connect to iTunes server, because this is not my first time watching a rented iTunes movie, and I usually do not need internet, or the need to connect to iTunes store, and the fact that the movie diappeared upsets me.. and it is nowhere in my iTunes library.  So, what happened, I clicked on the movie, it said cannot connect to iTunes sever, so exited out, and reset my computer, when it reloaded, I clicked on it again, and the same error message appeared, and then the movie disappeared.

    Hi runner_girl7585,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  If you weren't ever able to watch your rental movie, you can report this to the iTunes Store:

  • Rented movie disappeared without watching it within 2 days of downloading

    I downloaded movies to watch on vacation. All the movies are gone never watched them

    Before we can answer, are you talking about iTunes? Or some other store?
    If it's non-iTunes, contact the provider. Nothing we can do about it here.
    If you rented it on iTunes, did you get an email confirming that? Did you begin to watch the rental? If so, you only get 24 hours in the USA to finish it (and 48 hours outside of USA).
    Here are the rules:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1657
    If you didn't, and you have the email receipt from Apple, there's a link under every purchase that says "Report a Problem." Click on that, and explain what happened. They can tell if you started the movie, so don't expect a positive resolution if you started it.

  • Download Movies from Music Store but will not show up in ITunes Library

    I purchased a Movie from the iTunes Music Store. After downloading the movie the movie disappears. It's not in the itunes libaray or anywhere on my hard drive. I looked at my purchases account info for the store and it has a record of my purchase. Is it a itunes bug? ...Apple has no answers. Using iTunes7.

    in your source list, below "LIBRARY", do you have a "Movies" category showing up?
    if not, try heading into your general preferences and putting a checkmark next to "Movies" in the "Show" area. there's a screenshot of that tab in this document:
    Adding, Browsing, and watching videos in iTunes
    if you can get the Movies category to show up in your sourcelist, do the errant Movies show up in it?

  • HT1657 Rental movie disappears from PC after transfer and never shows up on iPad

    Article says I can transfer movie rental from my PC to my iPad (1) and that it can only exist ion device at a time. I transferred the movie, it disappeared from my PC (in Rentals catregory), but never showed up on my iPad. What now?

    Thanks for replying.  I tried your solution also but it didn't help.  Apple gave me a 2.99 credit to my account and told me to download it again. Next time I'll download it on the device I want to watch it on, so I won't have to worry about transferring it. Apple needs to make this whole process more user friendly. I am far, far from a novice, but I am a Windows guy, not a MAC guy.  Even so, I felt like a novice user having to hunt and peck just to be able to try and transfer the movie.  Once I did it, and I probably could not duplicate what I did because it was just luck, the movie disappeared.  I was surprised they came back with a credit so quick.  Thanks again.
