How do I download the SD version of my HD TV show onto my iPod Touch 1st generation?

I bought and downloaded the Pilot episode of the Vampire Diaries. However, I found out afterwards that it can't be synced because the iPod Touch 1st generation does not support HD videos. But I read that when you buy an HD video it comes with a SD version. I can't figure out how to get that SD version to show up or be synced. I went on the Purchased pages and unselected the HD versions, but it says that the SD versions have already been downloaded to the computer. I can't find them and can't find any selections to change the HD to SD. Please help me!!

Hello maxr0,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I found this article that outlines where to go to download your purchases again in iTunes.
The article named says it is for iTunes 10, but the steps will work for iTunes 11 as well.
In iTunes, click iTunes Store (below Store).
Click the Purchased link in the top-right of the Store home page (below Quick Links).
In the page that appears, select a category.
iTunes shows you which of your purchases are available for download. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download.
If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you’re using Album view, click an album to see which songs on it are available for downloading.
To search for an item, type its name or a keyword in the search field, and then press the Return key to view your search results.
To download an item, click the Download button to the right of the item.
From: iTunes 10 for Mac: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store
          http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1706
Once you get to the page for your Movies or TV Shows, there should be a checkbox that says Download HD When Available. Uncheck that, and then download your purchase and that should get you the SD version of your video.
Take care,
Sterling

  • TS4223 I accidentally bought the HD version of a movie for my daughter's iPod nano (it can't be watched on the Nano).  So I'm trying to figure out how to re-download the SD version.  do I have to pay for the lower version??

    I accidentally bought the HD version of a movie for my daughter's nano. you can't watch HD on a nano.  So I'm trying to figure out how to re-download the SD version.  This help screen makes it seem like you can just correct the problem and just "download" the lower version.  But when I follow the steps, I basically get to where I'm just having to actually purchase the other version.  Do I have to pay to get the lower quality version after I've already paid for the HD version?

    When you purchase an HD movie or show, in most cases the SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select Movies or TV shows as appropraite. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the movies/shows and be able to download them.
    Note that with digital copies from a Blu-Ray or DVD, if it comes with an HD copy, you normally cannot get the SD copy as well and have to purchase it separately if you want it.
    Regards.

  • How can I download the latest version of Safari?  Exact instructions.

    How do I download the latest version of Safari?  I keep getting a message that my current version is no longer supported.  Isn't there something I can just click on?  I can't see how to actually download it (gen x, not as smart as I once was ), but please help me anyway.

    You may have to settle for as recent of version of Firefox, as your OS X 10.6.8 will allow.
    Even an older archived Firefox would be more recent than Safari from that era.
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    see:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-download-and-install-firefox-mac
    The method to get a later version of Safari, would be to see if the computer can be upgraded
    to a later fully new OS X which includes a period-correct Safari version. That's about it.
    And an upgrade to a later OSX may compromise the kind of computing experience you'd
    found acceptable with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I'd consider a later computer, as a vehicle to
    access later OS X versions, and keep the older computer (with backups) in Snow Leopard.
    The online App Store may suggest a later OS X version than you have. The latest it may
    (or not) support is Yosemite. That would likely require a RAM upgrade and perhaps a new
    hard disk drive of faster rotational speed, or perhaps an upgrade to SSD, to add speed to
    allow the bulkier newer OS X to work OK. Then you may need to get newer applications.
    Other available OS X versions, not as new as Yosemite, would be available by purchase
    in the Apple Store online. A code would be sent to your email, to unlock these downloads.
    If you fall into the potential upgrade trap, be sure to create viable external clone or bootable
    copy of your current system on external device; and have backup Time Machine archive, too.
    In any event... there isn't a newer Safari for Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • HT4550 how do i download the newest version of safari?

    How do I download the newest version of Safari software?

    If what you indicated is correct, you are using Mac OS X 10.7.5, so the most recent Safari version for Lion is Safari 6.
    Safari 6.1 is available for OS X Mountain Lion, and Safari 7 is only available for OS X Mavericks, so if you want to upgrade Safari, you will have to upgrade OS X. See > http://www.apple.com/osx

    How do I download the english version of Photoshop, I keep getting the Swedish version. So far the support be really bad. Need direct support, not this forum or FAQ pages.

    If you have Creative Cloud, just change the Application Language to English in the Desktop App, then English will be available for install.
    When the Install is finished, go into Preferences > Interface > UI Language and English should be in the drop-down menu. Change and restart PS.

  • How do I download the latest version of iPhoto

    How do I download the latest version of iPhoto

    iPhoto is only included if you are buying a new Mac and then it is only available at the app store - you must "accept" it (associate it with your Apple ID) and then download it. It is not part of the OS - it is an "add-on". Only updates to a previously purchased/registered copy will be offered automatically. Depending on the age/model of the Mac and when/how you acquired iPhoto originally, you will most likely have to pay for the new MAS version - there was a short period last year where Apple allowed anyone who installed Mavericks to upgrade to the latest versions of iLife free of charge, but that is no longer in effect.
    In this case, there isn't enough information to give a definitive answer.

  • How do I download the newest version of iTunes on my iPad

    How do I download the newest version of iTunes on my iPad 3. I bought some music and tried to synch it with my laptop but it says I don't have the newest version of iTunes on my iPad. Thanks

    iTunes on the iPad is part of iOS. It can't be downloaded separately. I suspect that the error message you're getting is actually telling you to update iTunes on your computer.
    Best of luck.

    If programs don't show up, you may simply not meet the requirements. Since you have not provided any system info, we have no way of verifying that.
