Help! Slow download on TV show from itunes

I bought a TV show from itunes, and it's downloading REALLY slowly. This is my first time using itunes, and right now, it's looking like my last. It says there is 270 hours remaining...that's ridiculous. I'm on a fast connection, I'm at college. My roommate says hers take 90 minutes, tops. Who can I get in contact with to fix this or get a refund? Is that even possible with Apple? I know how sh*tty the support from these companies can be. What should I do?

If you mean, can you download to Tunes on a computer, can you stream it to the Apple TV, then Yes.

If I download a tv show from itunes, will I be able to watch it on a plane without wi-fi?

I'm going to take a trip with my son and want to know if I download one of his favorite show from itunes, will he be able to watch it on the plane? My ipad only has wi-fi not 3G so I won't have any internet connection on the plane.

Thank you. It's a long trip so I have to keep my son entertained.

I downloaded a TV Show 'The Smothers Brothers" from ITunes and received only the audio. No video was downloaded. Would like to watch the shows either on my computer or preferably my TV. Help. dft

I just corrected my problem. After connecting to the TV, go to System Preferences, Sound, and select the HDMI rather than Internal Speakers.

In downloading a TV show from iTunes to my PC the file is stuck in processing and never completes the download

When downloading a purchased TV show from the Itunes store to my PC (Windows 7) the file is stuck in processing and never completes the download.

The EXACT same thing happened to me last night! Rented a movie; it had barely started and then froze. When I touch the video app icon, all I get is a blank, dimly lit screen. None of the other videos I own will display either. Was your problem ever resolved?

How to download movies/TV shows from iTunes with no more room?

Ran out of room on my Air. How do I download movies/TV shows I paid for? I thought I could use an external hard drive or my iPad but I can't seem

Thanks for any help.

Downloading movies & tv shows from iTunes shops other than the US

I download from the Danish & Canadian iTunes stores. I was just wandering if any time soon we who download from the other iTunes stores will get the opportunity to download movies & tv shows.
I am feeling really left out!!!!!! : (

The usual answer is that the copyright holders are holding the cards. It is their decision as to what can be sold in which iTS. I am sure that Apple would love to have just one store for everyone.
No one knows when video and TV Shows will be available in iTS other than the US.

I downloaded a tv show from iTunes and I can't watch it because it says I don't have enough storage to download?

How do I watch a iTunes tv show I downloaded when a message pops up and says I don't have enough storage to download?

Hi gregdojo,
Welcome to macbook forum.
Did you download it completely before you try to play it?
How much space left in your HD?
What about other TV shows? Try to download another one (pick one from the free section).
If other played just fine and your last download still won't play smoothly, you can contact iTunes costumer service to adjust your credit back.
Good Luck.
ps: try to update the iTunes and repair permission after that might help.

Is there any way to watch a downloaded TV show from iTunes on my iPad without wifi? I have an iPhone if that helps.

If the TV Show is downloaded on your iPad, you don't need Wi-Fi to watch it.

I download two free games from itunes, it is not showing up on my iphone. Help

I downloaded two free games from itunes, it is not showing up on my iphone as an icon. I see it when i have my phone linked to the computer,

I think I may have confused you and I apologize. But you are also confusing me now.
If you were not using restrictions before, then that is why the Allowed Content for Movies in in accessible. You can only access that if you had set a restrictions Passcode. If you do not have restrictions set, then it is a non issue and don't worry about that suggestion.
Were you actively using restrictions on the iPad? If you weren't then you don't have to enable it now. That will not do any good.

I purchased a tv show from itunes. While downloading from the store it shows in the video list, when done, it disappears. what is happening?

I purchased a tv show from itunes. I can sync to my iphone. I tried to sync to ipod touch 4gen. Sync seems to be fine, but the video doesn't show up. While downloading from the store it shows in the list, when done, it disappears. what is happening?
I finally figured it out. I had the parental controls restricting videos on my son's ipod. Once I changed the restrictions, the videos appeared.

Fill out a customer service request, they will respond. I had a problem with my account and Apple was very helpful.
BTW... the store is still down.

I can't play downloaded shows from iTunes in QuickTime.

I've downloaded Quicktime, installed it. And it wouldn't play my shows from iTunes. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled and still wont play, keeps saying "The movie requires Quicktime, which is not included in this version of iTunes. To play this movie, install QuickTime".... :/ I have a Windows 7 Dell laptop.

Hello ifeoluwaloju,
The article below details how to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and it's related components. Doing so should help resolve this message.

Black screen after downloading TV show from itunes

HI. Downloaded an TV episode from itunes store. Loaded it onto laptop. Played ep and made sure it worked on laptop. Then stopped it but went back a few days later to play it. Connected laptop and TV with a HDMI cable but all it has on the laptop is a black screen with a toolbar top and bottom. Has the title of the ep and the time playing but no pik or audio. Doesn't matter whether it is connected to TV or just on laptop won't play but yet it played a few days earlier...
Help?
Also when I download a tv ep it dowbnloads two episodes, hd and sd and both are eating into my internet usuage. Is there anyway to download just one or do both need to be downloaded? Downloaded 13 ep of a season and it fully used my entire months internet allowance ;P

I need help with a similar issue. I downloaded one tv episode with no problems. The 2nd one I tried, I got error code 8008. I emailed iTunes Help and they gave me the instructions to delete the temporary files, restart my computer, and sign back in to iTunes and check for available updates. After doing this, I got one more to go through. I then bought another episode, and after the same problems, finally got it to go through. I was also told to check my firewall, Anti-Virus software, and any Ad-ware software because I could get 2 more episodes to download. I disabled and uninstalled what I could and tried again, with no luck. I looked last night, and the 2 episodes that won't download are in my TV Shows category under my Library heading, but they won't sync to my iPod. When I look at them in the Purchased category, they are dimmed and it won't let me do anything with them. So far, I haven't heard anything from Support.

How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable? The albums show as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized device. I also have albums that appear in my library, but are not able to be added to my iPod from my computer

When you download something from the iCloud, it is a brand new licensed copy. Your iCloud account just contains a notation that you have this app. It isn't storing an actual copy of the app from your Mac.

I downloaded tv shows from iTunes onto my iPad, but when I plugged into my computer it erased them from the iPad and they didn't get transferred to the computer. How do I get them back?

First, is your iTunes account on your computer, the account you set up your iPad with and the one you sync regularly with? If yes, just reconnect your iPad to your computer, via USB and open iTunes. After your iPad syncs, and you see the message that it's OK to disconnect, don't disconnect. Click once on the iPad from the left side of your iTunes screen. This will open your iPad in iTunes. You would then click on Videos and you'll see the TV shows you downloaded. You can choose individual shows, or choose to sync all videos to your iPad. After you've moved what you wanted back, click apply, then sync again and you should be fine.
