Downloaded TV Show Crashing
I paid for and downloaded an episode of Sons of Anarchy. One download is complete but the same is downloading in HD...I guess I am only charged for one. Anyhow, I try to play the episode and itunes keeps saying itunes has stopped working properly. Do I have to wait another hour for the HD version to download before I can watch it? I don't know why a show downloaded from itunes keeps crashing itunes. Ideas? By the way, my version of itunes is up to date...
Same problem with a season I purchased. I purchased a season of the walking dead, after watching 1 episode once on (my computer) I could not watch it again the very next day... or even now (several days later). Is that what generally happens with a season pass? I have the latest version of ITunes... and I made sure everything was updated on my computer and still the same problem.
P.S. Trying 2 get help for Itunes is so difficult and tedious ... all we can do is chat or post a message? then its hard 2 figure out where 2 go 2 post your issue.

I have ipod touch 4G . While updating O/S it stopped in between and now it only shows crashed apple symbol. It is neither turning off nor able to go to main screen. what I see is only crashed apple symbol. What to do?
Download RecBoot and see if that will kick it into recovery mode, so your computer sees it and you can do a restore.

Film wont resume downloading after iTunes crash
On purchasing a movie from the iTunes store (Green Lantern), I began to watch it as it was downloading, like I have done with every other film, as I have a realitively fast connection. However, during the movie, iTunes crashed to the desktop. When loading iTunes back up, the movie did not start loading again, like you would expect if you had to close and restart iTunes yourself. The movie also did not appear in the films tab.
Going back into the store, iTunes recognises I have bought the movie already, yet wont resume the download or show what has been already downloaded. Is there a way to get this film back without purchasing it again, or, if not, a way to get the cost refunded?Nope, that doesn't work. iTunes says: "All purchases have been downloaded for this account."

Problems downloading television shows.
So, since Tuesday, I've had problems downloading TV shows. I tried downloading two shows that I have season passes for on Tuesday, and one of them dissipeared and the other went into where it should be in the TV shows section, but had it's time listed as "not available", and when I selected it iTunes crashed. I went into the files and tried to find them, it turned out that they were still in the "downloads" folder, I deleted them, and tried downloading a free video from the iTunes store, and it didn't work either. Oddly enough, songs and video podcasts do seem to download properly, but I haven't tried downloading games or movies, because I don't want to waste money.
Can anyone help me, please?Hey man
i just got itunes and just had the same problem. It ****** me off that no one has helped you but i went and did some digging on it and found out how to fix this. update your itunes if it is not already up to date then follow the directions on this link. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93015 i hope this helps you out! -

One thing that you can try is installing a 'fresh' version of OS X Lion. Boot into your Recovery partition (holding down the command and R keys whilst booting) and elect to install OS X from the Recovery screen. You need not erase your hard drive and you should not lose any of your data.
Oh, and just as a precaution, I would use Disk Utility, once you're in Recovery mode, to verify your hard drive before trying to install the OS again.

When I try to play a downloaded TV show, itunes stops working and I get a error message "APPCRASH". I have updated itunes and removed and reinstalled quicktime.
Open your QuickTime control panel (either via the Control panels, or by going "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" in the Quicktime Player). In the Advanced tab, uncheck Enable Direct3D video acceleration:
... and click OK.
Quit the QuickTime Player if you have it open. Restart the PC and try watching the videos in iTunes again. Do they play now? -
My Mac had the 3.6.13 version originally and kept getting the notice to update. Every time I tried to update following the instruction that said "When prompted, drag the Firefox icon into the image of your Applications folder". But I was never prompted. When I downloaded it showed an icon on my desktop that says "Firefox 5.0.1.dmg" but no further instruction as to what I should do. There are also now two rectangular icons on my desktop that look like minature drives that are blue with a white Firefox symbol on it and are named Firefox. Checking the info of them shows one as version 3.6.13.dmg and the other as version 5.0.1.dmg. Both say for Mac OS Extended. The 3.6.13 shows the date created as 12-3-10 (the date I bought the Mac) and the other shows 12-7-2011. What should I do? The update notice happens at least once per day.
If you want to stick with the 3.6 line, you can get the latest version here:

When I open iTunes, it will not allow me to preview or download TV shows. The preview and download options are gray and will not let me view them. I have tried installing the latest Quicktime but it tells me that I have to do software update and when I do, Quicktime does not appear to need an update. I have no idea what to do
Click on your preference and check the Parental tab for possible restrictions. Open iTunes, then click the iTunes menu, select preferences after the window opens click on the Parental icon, take a look at the content restrictions section.

Why doesn't the new i-tunes allow me to save partial downloads of shows?
at my home base i start to download a show but then i receive a network error. the download starts all over. i go to another city for business, use the internet access but i-tunes allows me to pause and resume my download of shows. this question may have been answered but i am totally stymied. why did they change i-tunes? before you could pause and resume. i live in indonesia so downloading is often interrupted, thus always having to restart my downloads.
pc Windows XP ProPlease, I am a travelling consultant and have the same problem, I just recently bought 24 season 6 and cannot download it. ITunes must have understood this and thought of a way to save partial downloads so in time you could complete the full download. Please can someone answer this question?
Thanks. -

I often download tv shows on apple tv. All of a sudden, my screen does not display download options for tv shows. I can download movies no problem
and the Internet connection is good. It just no longer shows options for tv shows except for my tv shoes (already downloaded). what is going on?Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check your store location is set correctly, if this doesn't help, try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a 30 seconds. -
Is there any way to watch a downloaded TV show from iTunes on my iPad without wifi? I have an iPhone if this helps.
If the TV Show is downloaded on your iPad, you don't need Wi-Fi to watch it.

I am trying to play songs from iTunes Match on my phone everything is enabled. The songs and playlists show up but when I select one it won't download or play. The download status icon next to the song name flashes on and off but nothing happens. When I go to the iTunes Store the download section shows the same behavior - it flashes that there is 1 download continuously but nothing downloads. My iPad on the same network also running ios6 works fine. Any ideas?
Problem closed (although not resolved). After working with Apple support, no resolution was found. I asked for a refund of the iTunes match purchase price, which was granted. Interestingly the support tech, who was very nice if not particularly helpful from a technical point of view, spun the "resolution" of refunding my iTunes match purchase price as a positive one, here is a quote from the final email
"I'm glad to hear that you're not having issues with the songs you've purchased. Nothing makes Apple happier than to hear that our customers concerns have been rectified."
It is notable that I never had an issue downloading music directly purchased thru the iTunes store, the only issue that existed was downloading songs that I ripped from my CD collection and "matched".
I'm happy that I received my money back, however I wish that the iTunes Match service worked for me (I was looking forward to this service). I'm most upset at the time I wasted trying to fix this problem.
I'll now download music the old fashioned way: syncing with iTunes directly. -
I downloaded a show on itunes and it will not play the last 15 minutes. It just stops and will not go any further. What can I do? I am using a pc.
I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
