HT1473 I bought a movie on itunes but it won't download and won't play... suggestions?

I've had my itunes account for years.  Recently purchased a movie, Dallas Buyer's Club. 
The movie shows up in my cloud, but I can't download it and can't watch it. 
Anybody else having this type of issue?

I've seen this when downloaded to a computer/device that wasn't authorized.  Try to re-authorize in case it (or someone else) became de-authorized again.

  • Bought a song on iTunes but it won't play

    So, I bought an album on Itunes but one song in the album does not play on the computer or the iphone. It start but then it just jumps over to the next song after some seconds of being quiet. What has happened? What can I do?

    Try playing that one song in Quicktime Player.  Does it play all the way, or does it end early?  If it ends early it is possible you have a bad download.  You can delete the song from iTunes, then download it again.  If it only jumps in iTunes you can browse back posts where others have had similar issues.  I haven't seen any single, quick cures.  Some people have managed to get the 'skipping last 40 seconds' issue to clear with applying a system update to their computer.

  • Rented a movie on itunes, but it won't play or transfer, why?

    I rented a movie on itunes, but when trying to play it the computer prompts me "itunes has stopped working" and then crashes. Then when trying to transfer the rental, thinking it was possibly a computer issue, itunes then notifies me that it cannot transfer because my computer has not been authorized to play the movie. The rental movie was not only purchased and downloaded on an authorized computer, I also attempted to humor it and authorize it again, yet it remains in the same condition after several tries.
    I was attempting to transfer it to an iphone 4s, but if there is a possibility of playing it on a computer it would be prefered. My operating system is Windows 7, if that helps.

  • I bought a movie via itunes but i cannot see it. why?

    I bought a movie via itunes but i cannot see it. why?

    When did you buy, and what did you buy it on (computer, iOS device), and by 'cannot see it' you mean ... ? If you've just bought it then it should have downloaded onto the device/computer that you bought it on - so into the Movies part of your iTunes library if using your computer, the Videos app if using an iOS device.
    If it's a film that you bought it in the past then you might not be able to redownload it if you've changed countries since buying it, the rights-holder doesn't allow redownloading, or if it's no longer in your country's store.

  • I bought an audiobook from iTunes but it did not download properly how can I re-download it?

    I bought an audiobook from iTunes but it did not download properly how can I re-download it on my computer? I have tried to get it to download to ipad but it won't do it. Please help?

    Try:
    If you rented it directly on the iPad then it should have downloaded into the Videos app - if you can't find it in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

    Keep the Powerbutton and the Homebutton pressed at the same time until you see the Apple logo on your iPad screen.

  • I bought a movie on AppleTV, but how can i download it to my computer?

    I bought the movie on the new (black box) AppleTV, but cant download it to my computer.  I've tried "Check for available downloads" from the store menu in iTunes on my Mac, but it doesnt find anything to download.  

    Use the purchased option from the quick links section in the top right corner of the iTunes Store homepage.

  • Is there a way to stream movies or mirror them from my iphone onto my ipad screen? My iPad memory is too small to download the movies from iTunes but I have them downloaded on my iphone.

    My ipad is only 16gb and just about full but my iphone is 64gb and has plenty of space. I have bought movies on iTunes and have been watching them on my iphone, but this seems a bit silly as I have an ipad with a larger screen. Is there a way to mirror or stream the movies from my iphone to my ipad?

    Thx - the videos are on my Ipad - that is the problem - they are taking up all the storage and there is no room for anything else. Is there any place I can store them so that I can access them from time to time, but not have they use up all the space on the IPad? Sounds like the cloud is out...
