  • I recently rented a movie from iTunes but it will not play. I get an error message, number (-42408). What does this mean and what do I do about it?

    I rented Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows and when I tried to watch it, the movie would not play. I received the error message (-42408). What does this mean and what should I do?

    Is all other content purchased using the same iTunes Store account also failing to play with that error message?

  • I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1.  It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

    I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1.  It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

    Annoying isn't it.
    This seems to have started at the end of October and may be some kind of 'authorisation expiry' on the original unit that needs updating.
    Solution include:
    Purchase something on the AppleTV1 itself with DRM (a free TV Show episode might be an idea if yiou can find one).
    Remove the connection to itunes by removing the iTunes library from AppleTV's Computers>Settings menu, then add it back again.
    Remember this will wipe synced content from the AppleTV if AppleTV1 is syncing (My Movies/TV Shows etc) as opposed to streaming (My Shared Movies etc) from that itunes library.  In theory direct purchases on AppleTV that have never transferred to itunes might survive the 'wipe for a clean slate for a new sync' process that happens when you remove a sync library but don't risk it and right click on the AppleTV Device in itunes, choose Transfer Purchases if there are any prior to resetting the AppleTV Computers entry and readding the library.  If AppleTV is streaming only it's very quick to remove the libarry and re-add it as there's nothing to sync when you re-establish the connection - it works I've done it.  Purchasing a protected music video on my other AppleTV1 which was synced also worked.
    Good luck

    Hi,

  • 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'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.

    I have rented a movie 8hours ago, and it will NOT play. The system also charged me twice, for the same movie! How can you help me please?

    For the film not playing, you can use the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link.
    Not sure whether you can request a refund for the double charge via the same link, if not then you can contact iTunes support here : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

  • HT203167 I bought two audio books on iTunes but they will not play. My old books play without issue but the new ones do not.

    I bought two audio books on iTunes but they will not play. My old books play without issue but the new ones do not.

    Did you copy your actual iTunes content from your computer before reinstalling iTunes, or did you just copy your iTunes library which only contains the pointers to your songs / books locations ?
    You might, depending upon your country and if they are still in your country's store, be able to redownload your music purchases and your ibooks via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage - you will need to delete the entries from your library (where you are getting the 'unable to locate' messages) before they will potentially show with the cloud icon against them in Purchased for redownloading.
    Or copy them from your backup of your downloads/library and add them to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library

  • I rented a movie on itunes but it won't play.  never had this problem before?

    So I rented a movie from itunes (I have done this several times and never had problems) and it downloaded but when I click play it's just a black screen and won't play.

    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.

  • I burned a DVD of a movie I bought in iTunes but it will not play on another computer

    I burned a few DVDs of some movies I purchased on iTunes....they play fine on my imac with iTunes, Quicktime or any other player but will not play at all on my friend's various PCs. Help? What did I do wrong. The friend said their computer asked for my "address"? They were reluctant to do that...What did I do wrong?...or are movies bought on iTunes copy protected??

    Thanks for getting back. I have the movies downloaded to my computer. I went to 'Get Info' and now I do see that they are Copy Protected. I was able to copy them to a DVD as I said. And to make sure I wasn't watching the original when I put the DVDs back in my computer for testing, I closed iTunes and used Qucktime to view them...and it worked. When I was burning them I got no warning that they were copy protected and went through the near hour it took to copy each one and it said I would be able to play it on 'any Apple or Windows computer..but not on a DVD player' and that was why I lent them to a friend to watch. But I guess if they are copy protected that was surely in vain. I wish I had gotten prompts telling me that, instead of wasting 5 DVDs and several hours..not to mention getting them to my friend and getting her all excited to see the films. Oh well...she will have to come over here to watch them. Thanks.
