Getting videos to play after buying them on itunes

When I buy a song off of itunes and I take my pro book in an area where my wireless connection does not reach, I can still listen to the song. When I buy a TV show I am not able to view it unless I am online. Why is that so? If I can hear my purchased music offline why can't I see the videos as well?

The music videos also play when I am offline on my mac, but just not the movies and shows.

  • After converting to .mp4, I can't get videos to play.....

    I recently downloaded videos, and uploaded some off of DVDs, in both .avi and .mp4 formats. After loading them to iTunes, I was able to get them into my iPod, but now I can't view them on the computer. When I open them in Quicktime, through iTunes, I just get audio and static, yet they still run fine on my iPod. If anyone has any ideas whats wrong, I would be very appreciative. Thank you.

    If you drag an Excel file onto the Numbers icon, it doesn't open in Numbers?
    The error message you're seeing is because your iMac's been upgraded to the Lion OS, and the Lion OS doesn't support PPC applications.
    You've got a couple of choices:
    1.  You can spend the $100 or so to upgrade to Microsoft Office for Mac 2011, which, by the way, includes a free update to the next version of Office for Mac.
    2.  You can convert all of the Excel files to Numbers.  Be aware, though, that there may be some formatting changes made during the conversion. 
    I'm not at my Mac right now, but there is a way to associate files with a given application. It involves right-clicking the file, choosing Get Info, then changing something in the resulting window.  Unfortunately, I can't provide the exact wording just now.
    I hope this helps.

  • Dropbox: I cannot get video to play and cannot share pictures with those who do not have Dropbox installed.

    Dropbox: I cannot get video to play and cannot share pictures or video with those who do not have Dropbox installed.
    iMAC
    I am running OSX 10.6.8
    Processor:    3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory:      4GB

    To share either select the link (paperclip) icon on the right of the file or folder list.
    Cut and paste the link into an email you send your friends. Do not use the "share this" option in Dropbox as it forces them to join.
    You can test it after deleting your browser cache and cookies - you will no longer be signed in to Dropbox but the link should work fine.
    Hope this helps !

  • TS1717 my music videos stop playing after 3 minutes

    my music videos stop playing after 3 mins it happens to them all they worked fine before I upgraded to the new software

    No there is no particular limit, especially one as short as 4 minutes in the Flash player or a Web page in general.
    The video file may have been corrupted before or during upload to server.
    Test the original video file on your local machine, does it play the entire length? is so, notice the file size.
    Compare that size to the file size of the video on the server... if they are the same, you might want to re-upload anyway.
    Your video file will also have a web address that specifies exactly where it is located on your server. Do a direct download and test the file to see if it is courrupt.
    It will have an address something like this:
    http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/chris_test/tombstone/video1.flv
    So download your file directly from the server and play on your local machine to see if it's longer than 4 min.
    Could it be that your Web host only allows certain size files (no videos over 4 min for example)?

    Hi, Jjenjen30. 
    Thanks for the question and I believe we have a solution.  The best option would be to delete the movie that is giving you an issue and redownload it via the iTunes store past purchase option.  I have included a couple articles that will show you how to process these steps.

    If this does not resolve the issue, then iTunes might need to be notified to let them know there is a problem with the content.  I have included the steps on how to let them know.

  • Youtube video stops playing after 11 seconds

    Mac Pro / Mountain Lion 10.8.2 / Flash 11.4 - YouTube videos stop playing after 11 secs.  Only just started happening last week - around time when I installed latest Lion upgrade but this may be a red herring.  Tried uninstalling Flash and reinstalling with no change.  Checked/emptied cache.

    There are several topics with similar symptoms, but I don't think anybody has found an answer yet, as it only occurs on some few systems.
    What I would try if I encountered the same problem:
    try disable Hardware Acceleration (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/891337)
    try update the graphics drivers (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765)

  • Cant get videos to play either on my ipad2 or iphone4s since upgrading to is06

    Cant get videos to play either on my ipad2 or iphone4s since upgrading to is06,please help

    This is usually the result of trying to convert a "muxed" (MPEG1, MPEG2, VOB, some AVI, AVI MJPEG, etc.) source file. QT Pro, QT-like applications, and those that depend on QT tools all suffer this problem. Use an MPEG based third party application to perform your conversions. Many Windows users are using Videora Converter for this purpose. Do a Videora search in this forum for more information.

  • Getting videos to play on my iPad

    Does anyone know how to get videos to play on the iPad? On my iPhone I was able to convert videos files to mp4 and then they would show up in my library. I can not get my iPad to do this. Anyone know how???

    The process is the same but the constraints are slightly different - there are plenty of threads on the subject and as long as the video complies with the specification below, it will transfer. If it isn't transferring then there is something out of spec for that particular video.
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format

    Thanks.

    You're not doing what I told you to do in the last topic regarding this subject. I said to use a server side script to determine if iPhone then h.264 else .flv video. Also I told you that iPhone will not display the QTVR tours. Anyway, regarding your current setup: you already know why the 360 tour doesn't display on the iPhone. There's not a video file located at the referenced URL. http://www.ftworthfoundation.com/excel_Construction_Commercial.m4v
    I haven't looked much at the code other than checking the referenced files since it wasn't my previous recommendation. Perhaps if you fixed the referenced file it may work. Worth a try.
    Also... you have bad code on your site (for lack of a better term). Mixed cases in tags, etc. Check your HTML at http://validator.w3.org and fix any validation errors that you may have and I recommend maintaining lowercase in your html. For example: instead of <a hREF=" use <a href="
