How do you stop a download once started?

I often want to stop a movie download on ATV after it has commenced. How do I do this?

If you watch other content/reboot etc it will be flushed from the system. However, once it has been rented and starts to load you will be charged.

    How do  I stop a download once it is running?

    Solved my own problem:  Go to the sidebar on i Tunes to "Downloads" and click on this.  It will show current downloads.  Click on the download you wish to delete and then click on "delete" in the File menu.  You can also shift-click to delete a range of items.

  • HT4539 How do you stop a download from downloading completely?

    I started downloading a movie to my Ipad Mini and realized it was going to take too long, so I wanted to stop it and remove it from being downloaded. How do I do that?

    Once an item enters the download queue, the user cannot remove it. Either let it complete the download (easiest) or contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the Contact page  and ask them if they'll remove the item(s) from your queue for you.
    Regards.

  • HOW DO YOU STOP A DOWNLOAD IN A TAB?

    While enquiring about the same product from different sites, say, I decide on one site before all others have completed downloading their info. However, to ensure I do not cancel/lose all the sites being investigated, I desire to stop them downloading while I examine the chosen site. Should the chosen site prove unacceptable, I can simply continue with the downloads from the other sites by clicking on "Reload" in each tab. Presently, this is not possible as I have to kill each tab which means I lose that option.
    Please help. Where am I missing it? (I have just chosen Mozilla and cancelled Google Chrome - I am sure you chaps can help).
    Kindest regards,
    Paul.

    Tnks cor-el - but that really does not help. Let me restate the problem. I have 4 tabs open - searching for one item, say an MP3 song. One of those sites locates the song. Rather than lose those other 3 sites before I confirm the quality of the one located, I just want to stop the downloads of those 3 other sites - doing so also frees up the power on my PC. If the chosen site is no good, I simply proceed with the other 3 sites. Basically I can not locate the "X" that was available in GOOGLE, to stop a download in a tab - that is the crux of my problem.

  • TS1424 How do you delete a download once it's started?

    Hello,
    I'm new to the forum... I have downloaded a movie to rent & watched it, I'm trying to delete but can't? Help!
    Thanks
    Richard

    Hello Chege1982,
    Thank you for asking your question. It sounds like you would like to have deleted the video that was rented after it was watched. According to this article:
    iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1657
    Can I delete a rented movie before the expiration date?
    You can delete the movie prior to the expiration date if you want to make more space on your hard drive, iPod, iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV. However, the movie will automatically disappear from your iTunes library 24 (or 48) hours after you've begun viewing it.
    This article outlines how to delete media from your iTunes library on both computers, and iOS devices if you need it for future reference.
    How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store

  • How do you stop a download

    Ok this new version of Itunes is absolutely TERRIBLE.They removed items I LIKED seeing on the left ( Like downloads), No hover over explantion of the CLoud crap next to a show, that is now DOWNLOADING.. and I have no way to STOP it.
    Just a TERRBILE design... NO FEEDBACK, No Continuity...
    WHo ever thought this was a simple design, had a SIMPLE mind, with a LACK of realizing people like to have the details able to be controlled by the USER, vice blending it into a CLOUD of CRAP... that's as hazzy as humid day in a tropical island.

    I found this hint that you might find useful:
    Click & hold on the Dock icon and you should see a pause option.
    Mac Apple Store->Purchases should show the DL status and give you an option to pause it.
    Finally, if it finishes DLing and starts the installer, just quit it. You have to actively choose to run the installer once it downloads to your /Applicatiions folder.
    I hope you'll post the results of the fix on this thread!

  • How do you stop a task from starting at boot.

    I tried to install our network printer, HP 6300, on my daughter's Macbook. As part of the install process, the install dialogues search for the printer. They could not find the printer. I did go to add printers and it did see the printer and it was installed. Later, when connectiong the Mac to our Windows systems on the lan, I found out that I had to change definitions to point to our home work group. The printer is installed and functions, but every time my daughter boots the system, an HP dialogue appears where it wants to complete the installation. I would like to just kill this dialogue so it never appears. My only options on the dialogue window are cancel or continue. Somewhere there is a task that is kicking this off at boot. Is there a way to find it and kill it so it does not appear anymore?

    Go into *System Preferences* then under Accounts look in *Login Items*. See if the process is there. If it is high light it and then click the minus key to remove it.
    Beaten again, good show Michael:->

    How can I stop auto download of attachments without tapping on them? Once I open a mail, the attachment automatically starts downloading, though it is written as "tap to download". Please help..

    To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to prevent the automatic downloading of the SD version when you buy an HD show.
    You can, if you wish, suggest that the ability to prevent the SD version from downloading through the iTunes feedback page. But since the SD version is needed for use on iPods and there at least at present is no mechanism for someone to download the SD version at a later time should they decide they need it, Apple may just continue to force the downloading of both versions. If they get enough feedback on the issue, though, they may figure something out.

  • I started to download Maverick but then read that Word and Excel do not work  with Maverick.  I hit pause on the download. How do I stop the download.  In non technical terms please!

    How do I stop the download of Maverick on my MacBookPro?  I started downloading then discovered that 2008 Word and Excel do not work  with Maverick. I have too many files in the 2008 version to upgrade them at this time.  I just need instructions in non technical terms to stop the Maverick download.

    I did the same as Tapmr and have paused the "upgrade".  So am I to understand that the upgrade only downloads and will not automatically install it?  I am an extreme novice here, and cannot afford any issues after I upgrade/download.  I don't know how to make a clone copy as you suggested either.
    I need assurance that if the upgrade is allowed to continue that I will be able to delete the upgrade downloaded and continue on as before with my regular system.

    Thank You,

    I don't know of a way to stop the download, but when it finishes it will run automatically. Simply quit the installer. You can then delete it from the Applications folder like any other file.

  • How do you stop downloading itunes match songs to iphone 5

    How do you stop downloading itunes match songs to iphone 5?
    Cell data is turned off but it is still downloading.

    When you initially enable iTunes Match on any iDevice it is wise to let it operate for a good period docked or with good WiFi.
    Best route to stop it if essential is to switch off iTunes Match.
