HT1657 My ipod movie rental started dowloading and got about half way through before it stopped

It downloaded about half way before it stopped and completely started over and now it won't download at all.

I managed to find the rest of the movie by going to View in task bar for Safari Browser and going to "show downloads" and in there was the movie on pause.  I have no idea how it got to this point but I was just glad to fins it finally.  Itunes should think about coming up with something to make it easier for the novice to re find a paused movie that falls off the earth the way this one did.  It took me almost 45 minutes of screwing around to find the movie.  Just by placing a click on that said rented movies or something like this it would make it a whole lot easier to see the movie that just disappears this way.  Hope this helps someone.

    No, but they will likely let you redownload it if you report the problem:

  • Thought i downloaded a movie on new ipad, but when i started to play it, about half way through it stopped .  my time is up in a few hours.  what can i do?

    I downloaded a movie several days ago to my new ipad.   I thought it had completed the download.  I started to watch today and it keeps stopping.  I accidently started it yesterday so the 24 hour time limitation started.  What can I do??  Would Itunes be willing to give me another few hours?

  • I rented a movie via Itunes on  my PC but half-way through the download recieved a "An unknown error has occured (-50)" notification. This is not my first rental, and I have verified my network and all connections to be good. Will I still be charged?

    I rented a movie via Itunes on  my PC but half-way through the download recieved a "An unknown error has occured (-50)" notification. This is not my first rental, and I have verified my network and all connections to be good. I have rebooted Itunes and resumed the download of the movie only to receive the same error code. Has the movie file been corrupted? Can I recover the rental even though the time has elapsed? Will I be charged?

    Did you figure this out?  I haven't rented a movie in this new iTunes yet and saw one tonight I wanted to rent.  Same fricken thing is happening to me.  I hate this new iTunes, and I really hate that there are problems like this....why the heck do they have to fix something that isn't broken and break it?  This just really stinks.

  • Stutters and logging out half way through movies

    Hi all, At first I thought this was just me. I had created a couple of trailers in iMovie which played fine on everything but the AppleTV. That continuously dropped frames every second, turning smooth video into something that is jittery and unpleasant to watch.
    But now it did the same thing with The Girl Who Played With Fire which I rented last night. Up until that point, rented movies have always been fine.
    In addition, in both the last two films we have rented, the AppleTV has suddenly stopped playing the film at some point (about half ways through one and only 10 mins into the other) and dropped back to the menus.
    Why I don't know, but the film would not be showing as ready to play and investigating the settings would so that I had been logged out of iTunes. Once I log back into iTunes, I can then restart the film and everything seems to be fine after that.
    Any ideas?

    Hello Ellekell,
    I'd recommend deleting the movie, then redownloading it from the iTunes Store.

    About all you can do is wait until it finishes or you get an error message.

  • I recently downloaded an album and two of the songs on it play until about half way through and then cut out! What is happening and how do i get them back?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entries, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • I've tried to place an iphoto album order and it quits half way through the up

    I've tried to place an iphoto album order and it quits half way through the upload process.  A prompt comes up saying "iphoto quit unexepectedly".  It always quits at the same spot, page 17.  I've tried many times.  It worked last year when I made the same type of photo album.  Anyone have any ideas?  I have a MAC OS X 10.6.8
    thanks!

  • Movie streams and about half way through it wont stream anymore

    I open a movie on my external hard drive and the movie begins to play via airplay to the apple tv2.  About half way though the movie, the streaming locks up and can't finish watching the movie.  Any help would be appreciated.

  • HT2499 I inserted a brand new DVD and it quit half way through and gave me the "skipping over damaged area" message.

    I got this laptop refurbished from Apple in July. It was originally released in October 2011. I have watched DVD's on it previously, but lately, in the past 3 weeks, it's been pooping up the "skipping over damaged area" message. I put in a brand new DVD and half way through, it did it again, and I can't get past it. Any thoughts on what the problem may be?

    You can just open Terminal (in Utilities) and run the rm command (make sure you type it exactly) and then reboot.  With /.AppleSetupDone gone the system will think it is the the second part of an installation, i.e., after it installs and reboots and starts the Setup Assistant.  You will see the Welcome and music all over again and then you can go through the setup prompts again, this time specifying a password.

  • HELP - iPhone starts back up but crashes half way through

    I cant back up my iphone. After changing to a windows 7 PC, my iphone will not back up. It attempts it but seems to crash half way through, I have tried doing it without pics, still no joy. I cant update to the latest iphone software as it always backs up first, which it wont do. Have reinstalled itunes, tried a different USB port, left it over nigh, no joy. Seems to be a common problem, but hard to find a solution. Any solutions out there?

    Try create a fresh user account on your computer and do the back-up by following this link (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137) that will help isolate the problem if it's actually corrupted files in your computer causing this crash!!

  • Why does one movie rental start immediately and another after 15 hrs?

    Yesterday I rented a movie, actually two, via Apple TV2  and both started immediately and ran to finish without interruption. Today , after that experience, II tried to rent another movie and apple tv 2 tells me it will be ready in 15 hours. What is the deal?  can I get out of the rental, is thre any way to tell in advance of renting when it could be viewed? This makes movie rentals on Apple TV impractical.
