HT1551 why  does my Apple TV say that some movies purchased through iTunes are not authorized to play on the Apple TV (1st gen)

Why will my Apple TV (1st gen) not allow me to play some movies even though they were purchased in the iTunes store?  I have sync'd the movies to my Apple TV and there is plenty of room on the drive.  I get the error message that says this movie is not authoriezed for play on the Apple TV.  Thanks.  Ron

Have you purchased anything on the Apple TV recently, next time you make a purchase, try making it on the Apple TV.

  • Why does my cellphone keep saying that estimating time remaining when I try to upgrade the system?

    Why does my cellphone keep saying that "estimating time remaining" when I try to upgrade the system?
    Is there anyway to fix this situation?

    Hi Eric_Sun,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You may want to update your iPhone using iTunes on a computer if your device only shows "estimating time remaining" when you try to update wirelessly:
    If you can’t update wirelessly, or if you want to update with iTunes, follow these steps:
    If you use your device's Personal Hotspot for your computer's Internet connection, update your device wirelessly or connect your computer to another network.
    Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer.
    Plug in your device to your computer.
    In iTunes, select your device.
    In the Summary pane, click Check for Update.
    Click Download and Update.
    If you see an error message while updating your device, you can learn how to resolve iOS update errors in iTunes.
    You can find these steps here:

  • The movies that I've purchased from Itunes do not all appear on my Apple TV list of purchased movies. Also one movie that is listed as purchased on my Apple TV does not appear in my itunes library. Anyone have a solution?

    Some movies that I have purchased from itunes and are listed in my itunes library arenot listed as purchased movies on my Apple TV. Also one of the movies listed as purchased on my Apple TV does not come up in my Itunes library. Anyone know why?

    Are you by chance signed in to differnt accounts on iTunes (your computer(s)) and AppleTV?  Is AppleTV connected to more than one computer?  When you are compairing lists of movies are you looking under the "Movies" button, or under the "Computer" button?  Where all of these movies purchased though iTunes? 
    NOTE:  The computer button only shows the content that is downloaded to your computer(s).  So it will not show all the content you have purchased.  Just all the content on the computer.

  • I have songs on my iPhone 5 that have been purchased through iTunes that isn't displaying cover art. Please help!

    I have a few songs, quite a few actually, that have been purchased through iTunes and they aren't displaying the cover art on my iPhone. They have previously, but now for some reason it has stopped. Only on a few.
    Can anyone help me?
    I have the latest version of iTunes and I'm using a PC with Windows 7.

    Hello kerrisapatricia,
    It sounds like you have a couple of songs you want to delete from your iPhone. This article should help with that:
    How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5772
    To delete a song:
    Tap the Music app.
    Tap the Songs category.
    Swipe left to right over the song you want to delete.
    Tap Delete.
    If you see a cloud icon next to them right now, or after you delete them you can hide them by turning off Show all Music in your settings here:
    Tap Settings > Music
    Download past purchases

  • I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling I must authorize this computer before it play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer.

    I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling me I must authorize this computer before it can play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer to play this music?
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • I am trying to download i tunes onto my pc but get an error saying that some old i tune files can not be deleted before reinstalling.

    I am trying to download i tunes onto my pc (Windows XP) but get an error saying that some existing files can not be deleted to be re installed.  I have tried several time but to no avail.

    Many thanks, that's perfect.
    The older version of apple software update cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:

    Does it go through properly this time?

  • HT201441 I downloaded an album on itunes and it says that it is purchased, but it on not showing up on mu music playlist. What should I do?

    I downloaded an album on itunes and it says that it is purchased, but on my music playlist it does not show up. What shoud I do?

    Download it to iTunes on your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519), then sync it to your phone.  Make sure the album is selected to sync to your phone before syncing.  If that doesn't work, you may have to delete all the music off your phone, then sync it back from iTunes.  To delete your music, go to Settings>General>Usage, wait for the apps list to open, then click Music, tap Edit, then tap next to All Music.

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.
