HT1689 How do I cancel an automatic download once it has started on iPad?

My iPad is trying to automatically download HD versions of TV series that I don't want on my iPad. I purchased them on my ATV, and have already viewed them.  I can stop the download, but not delete it.  It just sits in the queue.

Try this - might work:
•  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the download may be gone.
 Cheers, Tom

  • How can I cancel an update download once it has started?

    Firefox asks me to download an update to version 3.6.24 every time I go online. I do not wish to do so at this time. However, I hit the download button by accident and it began the download. I have paused it, but I want to know how I may stop it altogether (for this time). I have a Mac.

    The reply from cor-el assumes that the question was about an ordinary download, managed by the "Downloads" panel interface. A Firefox update does its downloading (before installation) with a different interface panel. I do not have a screen-capture of the actual panel in that it's appearance happened a few days ago and our final approach was to suspend the automatic download (note that that had been started in error), and then to do all the manual steps we usually would do for a deliberately, manually-started, update. But the "hanging in mid-air" update forced us to do that update in a way and at a time that we ordinarily would not do it.
    I still contend that the Firefox update progress panel (whatever it is labelled) does *'''NOT*''' have any obvious cancellation interface, not even the "x" noted above. (... and if it *only* had an "x", in my opinion that would not be a sufficiently obvious interface as compared to having a "Cancel" button.)
    I am replying in this thread on behalf of "shepdog" as I am our local desktop support for the particular Macintosh. Please consider this reply as a mark that the reply from cor-el, while it was a correct answer, was not an answer to the particular question that was asked, i.e., "Not Helpful".

  • How to I cancel an af:poll, once it has been set

    Hi.
    I would like to know how to programmatically stop/cancel an "af:poll" once it has been initialized/started.
    I have seen an example of whereby, Javascript is used via a clientlistener, to then perform an "event.cancel"; is there also a direct way within a backing bean to also cancel and/or stop the poll wth
    Thanks.

    You will need to implement your own BoundedRangeModel and handle stopping the af:poll.
    Take a look at this example: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/fnimphius/progressbarcolor/index.html?_template=/ocom/print

  • HT1689 How can I stop multiple automatic downloads of the same item?

    Why does iTunes keep wanting to download the same item over and over again? How do I stop this without turning off the automatic download function.

    You may click on the "+" button to the right of the first multiple choice box to add more in the same line. When you hover over the button, the tooltip says "insert item beside".

    That only happens when you are running Windows in a Virtual Machine with OS X as the host. Shut down the VM and restart your Mac.  Once the VM is running again and you insert a USB flash drive you should get that prompt again.
