HT1551 Why isnt my apple TV picking up all my movies in iTunes anymore?

Why is my apple TV not picking up all my movies anymore, I can see them, but they are grey so they wont play through the apple TV.  They can still be viewed on my MAC.  Can anybody tell me how to fix this problem?

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

    Do any of those possbilities seem likelly?
    If the clips were renamed, you should change the name back to what they were before. If the Event clips were moved out of the Movies/iMovie Events folder, move them back.
    If the external drive was not attached, attach it and restart iMovie.

  • 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

  • I had to change computers. Why doesn't apple automatically transfer my music and movies?

    I had to change computers. I can't get Apple to transfer my music and movies. Why isn't there some simple way to do this?

    There are various methods to copy your content between computers : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Also assuming that you are in France then you should be able to re-download purchased music : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 - films are a one-time only download

  • How do I Play videos from external hard drive on Apple TV2?  Can I just move the iTunes Library to the External Hard Drive?

    I have several HD videos stored on an external hard drive and would like to bring them into iTunes and play them via iTunes on my Apple TV2, but I am not sure how to go about it.  I don't want to store the movies on my iMac hard drive because it would eat up to much space...so do I just move the iTunes Library to the external hard drive?  And, if so...will the Apple TV2 find the iTunes Library on the external hard drive?  Thanks for any help anyone can suggest.

    iTunes content on an external drive isn't a problem.
    The simplest method is to just move your library to an external drive.
    If you wanted to keep just movies on an external drive, that's a little more difficult. You'd need to put the movies where you want them to reside on the external drive and add drag and drop them onto iTunes while holding down the option key. Obviously any movies already in iTunes would need moving from their current location and removing from iTunes first.

  • Why I can't use a projector with rented movies from ITunes

    I rented a movie from ITunes, I downloaded to my Ipad and I tried to watch it in my projector, the communication with the projector is good, but when the movie start my IPad says that the display that I am using is not a supported display for protected material, but with Netflix it works perfectly. Can someone help me out here?

    By default Apple does not allow you to project or put any rented material on "external" devices i.e screens or projectors
    You may be better off contacting your local Apple Store

  • Apple Tv will not sync some movies from Itunes.

    Hello,
    I have had some issues with syncing my apple tv with itunes. I have overcome the initial issue of incomplete syncs etc. I now have an issue where only some of my movies in itunes are syncing. All movies to date have been ripped from DVDs using the Handbrake application. I have always set it to Apple TV which default to MP4. Has anyone had any experience with this. Is there a setting I am missing, or a better way to rip movies than Handbrake.
    I am using an Imac running Leopard and all software is up to date.
    Cheers
    Sid

    discussing ripping copyrighted DVDs is a forbidden topic in these forums.

  • Apple TV won't play my movies from iTunes

    I just purchased my Apple TV and I can't movies I bought on iTunes. I can see my purchased tv shows but the only movies available are rentals. Any ideas on how I can find my purchased movies?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't redownload movies as you can TV shows, you'll need to play them via your iTunes library on your computer using homesharing.

  • Why is it taking 20 hours to download a movie from itunes?

    i just purchased a movie from itunes and it says that it will take around 20 hours to download, is that normal?

    Hi lacostejacket,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are downloading a movie from iTunes and it gave you an estimated time of 20 hours to complete. Download times can vary depending on the size of the file and the speed of Internet connection. Please use the following article as a reference. It has a table that shows expected download times for certain speeds.

  • Started a new apple id but lost all my movies can i get them back

    i started a new apple id and deleted my old one only to find i lost all my movies can they be retrieved.

    All content that you download from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it. Depending upon what country that you are in (and whether you've changed countries since buying the films), then if the films are still in your country's store (and those film studios allow redownloading) then you might be able to log into your old account and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes.
    Logging into an account and redownloading its purchases may tie your computer to that account for 90 days : iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - so you won't be able to use iTunes Match, automatic downloads or redownload your new account's purchases until the 90 days have completed (it shouldn't affect new purchases). And, depending upon what you've already done with your new account, you may already be in a 90 day association to that account.
