Having trouble streaming movies on apple tv
When I purchase a movie from ITUNES to stream using my Apple TV it starts streaming and then it stops. In watching a 2 hour movie it could take 4 hours because of these interuptions.
I assume the rental is made on the AppleTV.
AppleTV calculates the average internet speed and plays when enough has downloaded to play through.
If this fails then teh average speed has probably dropped - either other devices in teh home using the internet and sharing overall bandwidth or your ISPs speed dropping off.

Since I installed Mavericks I am having trouble streaming and the fan turns on and stays on shortly into watching a film on line.
Also the screen breaks up into lines and colors with no image in the middle of viewing a film sometimes several tomes.Hi Mudra,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your fan is running and you're noticing video issues when streaming video, I'd suggest first trying to reset your system, as described in this article:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays

Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
All the best,

Is anyone having trouble playing movies they purchased? I have no issue watching netflix or previews but I can't watch what I already purchased.
A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
Also check your payment details, make sure your details are exactly how they appear on your credit card statement, you might also try changing some of those details, saving them and changing them back again.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.
At this point in time, I’m wondering if this could be related to (but not restricted to) the new feature that allows others to come into your home and use your Apple TV to download and play their content on your Apple TV without logging into their account on your Apple TV. The Terms of Use for iTunes Store content have always been to require you to only purchase and play the content from the store in the location where you live and to use a credit card registered in that location. Previously Apple seem to have been somewhat lenient on enforcing such restrictions, perhaps now they are not. However I don’t really have any evidence to support this suggestion, except that changes made to accounts in these areas do appear to be helping many.
If you are successful in resolving your problem, perhaps you would let us know exactly which action resolved the problem for you. If you are having this problem to begin with, can you also tell us your location. -
I am having challenges streaming movies from my Mac Mini to my IPAD 3, the movie will load (after what seems a bit too long) and start to play. It then stops after 30-50 seconds and if I leave will start again, but repeat the start stop thing. Its almost like it stops to buffer than starts again. I have had the same issue appear wiht my Iphone 5.
Thoughts?Welcome to the Apple Community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment. -
HT4428 Are you having trouble downloading movies.?
I am having so much trouble downloading movies from apple tv anyone else help
I'm not sure how you can determine you have the same problem since the problem hasn't been described, however on the basis of what you are describing, you should try the following.
First you should try logging out of your iTunes Store account (settings > iTunes Store > accounts) and then back in again.
If that doesn't help, try resetting the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings). You should also try restarting your router.
If both of the above don't help, you should try a restore (Settings > General > Reset > Restore). -

Having trouble putting movie on new Zen MX
*having trouble putting movie on new Zen MX? just recieved it in the mail. i am able to load mp3's without any problems. i want to put Incredible Hulk on to it for a road trip. Creative Centrale has no problem seeing the movie, i can use the rip function to bring up all the info on it. when i press start rip i get "dvd decoder not found". i have the latest media player 0 and also <span class="text">CyberLink PowerDVD.
this is one of the main reasons i purchased this player as i like to watch movies while i am on planes. if i can not get this player to do movies i will be retuning it ASAP and purchasing one that can do it without having to pull teeth to do it.
any help would be appreciated as i am leaving for a trip in 3 days and will be watching movies on a mp3 player by then(maybe not a ZEN)
i uderstand about the legal issues when ripping movies but the one of the reason i bought this player was because it stated you could watch movies on it. now if i can not do that then i have no reason to keep it
Message Edited by dukeman on 07-6-2009 07:28 [email protected]Sounds like you are missing the codecs which is a computer issue not the player. You can download codecs from microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...vice/[email protected]

I am having trouble running .mov files on my ipad. What can I do?
Thanks.go to the app store and search .mov The pad plays a certain set of file types, but not all. In the appstore there are several alternate players that will work. Find one that does what you heed, and is priced right for you,and download it.
((WM Player HD lite is free, and look like the one you might want)
I use xy player, and VLC, but I am not sure either one is still available.
