HT3209 iTunes HD movies issue?

Ok I'm more than a little cheesed with iTunes at present Until today I've had no issues downloading HD movies (in fact I downloaded 3 prior to the latest software update) and then all of a sudden iTunes now thinks my Macbook Pro Retina is NOT capable of showing HD films?!? Well thanks iTunes but I tend to disagree - hopefully this will be fixed very soon, but in the meantime does anyone have a work-around? Cheers

I had the same problem when I bought Star Trek Into Darkness. I want a HD copy on my PC mainly just to stream it to my Apple TV through Airplay, but I can only download the SD version, even though I bought HD.

Itunes 9 movie issue

Been using Itunes (loaded on Win XP) with my ITouch for months with no problems. I downloaded ITunes 9 and now about half my movies doubled, meaning the movies shows back to back in one file doubling the length. Even if I open the movie from windows explore and play movie on Quicktime it does the same thing. This did not happen until I downloaded Itunes 9. Please help. Thanks.

Delete 1 of the copies?

ITunes rented movie issues

I have rented a movie on iTunes, it played half way then froze. ITunes says it cannot play the movie, why would this happen?

It's probably not fully downloaded; slow internet connection?

I have this issue too and want the same result, another feed suggests selecting the movie, going to get info, and changing this under options, but I suppose you have to do that movie by movie.
You can select all the movies you want and change them at once.

Hi there,
You may want to varify that your system meets the minimum system requirements for viewing HD content. Take a look at the article below for more information.

Itunes HD Movies not compatible on non-HDCP displays, should automatically play in SD mode.

Why don't itunes HD movies play in SD when a monitor is not compatible instead of just throwing out an error message about the computer must have a built in display or it must be connected to a display that supports HDCP. I've bought many itunes movies in HD which work on my IPAD, but they won't work on my Windows 7 desktop monitor due to the error message given. We pay itunes lots of money for movies (more for HD), so itunes should have something in place to allow for HD movies to be viewed in SD when the situation dictates. I might be purchasing a new monitor soon with HDCP, but that shouldn't be the solution.

Reply to myself.....
I found that Amazon have addressed this issue as they state with regards to non-HDCP issues........
If you've purchased HD content, but your device, connectors, or setup don't meet content protection requirements, we'll deliver that video in Standard Definition (SD) and let you know you're receiving the SD version instead of the HD version.
Pity Apple couldn't do what Amazon do!!!

FYI! Intego NetBarrier X5 and iTunes App Store Issues

I discovered last night (while attempting to download the iPhone 3.0 update) that my 3rd party firewall, Intego's NetBarrier X5, is preventing App Store application and iPhone software updates.
Back in early March, I upgraded NetBarrier from X4 to X5, importing my settings from the old version into the new. From that point on, I have been unable to update my iPhone applications from within iTunes; I was caught in an endless loop of being asked to log into the App Store, and being denied access (almost as if my credentials weren't making it to Apple's servers). The weird part was, I had no problem downloading music, movies, etc. from the iTunes Store; this issue only affected App Store downloads/updates.
I do not know if this is a problem with Intego or an Apple. I'm inclined to believe that something changed within iTunes 8; a change to the ports used to access the App Store, as opposed to the regular iTunes Store. I say this because, when I turned off NetBarrier completely, I was finally able to access/download my application updates after months of not being able to. As soon as I turned it back on, I got caught up in that endless login loop again. This is definately an issue.
I post this information in the hope that it will resolve similar issues for others. iTunes Support, when contacted numerous times, was completely useless.
It appears that I'm going to have to configure my firewall to allow ALL iTunes traffic to pass. Can someone please tell me where I can find a comprehensive list of ports that must be open for iTunes to function properly? I would greatly appreciate it.

Hello Everyone,
After upgrading to Snow Leopard, and re-installing X5 (10.5.4), it looks like I may have identified the cause of this issue.
It appears that, within X5, if you select the "+Hide my Apple ID when using iTunes MiniStore+" option (Overview --> Privacy --> Data --> Surf), it jacks-up connections to iTunes Store App/iPhone OS Updates.
For now, I have de-selected this option, and everything seems to be functioning as it should.
I cannot believe that something as stupid as this has caused me (and countless others) so many months of aggravation. I will be reporting this as a defect to Intego later today.
Hope this information helps.

Itunes rental movie won't play on apple tv

I'm trying to play an itunes rental movie via itunes on my Windows 8 computer through Apple TV.
Upon trying to play the movie the computer says "An error occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device "Apple TV". An unknown error occurred (-41049)."
The TV says "This movie is already being viewed on another Apple TV or computer...."
The movie is NOT playing anywhere else.
Any advice on how to fix this?

My rental stopped about 10 minutes ago and I can't restart it. Actually, I was just prompted to update Apple TV ... guess they rolled out an update that caused the issue? Find out here soon ...

I am trying to update my RSS via sound cloud to iTunes but having issues... please help

I am trying to update my RSS via sound cloud to iTunes but having issues.
I currently have my podcast working on iTunes but I have decided to change where I have them hosted. I moved my podcasts over to Soundcloud and currently have the rss feed but I would like to update my iTunes podcast with this so that all my podcasts showing up on sound cloud will sync up and automatically update.
here is my rss feed:
feed://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/48458062-the-collective-podcast/tracks
Podcast via Soundcloud:
http://soundcloud.com/the-collective-podcast
my podcast on iTunes:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-collective-podcast/id662393388
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

The feed in use by iTunes is http://thecollectivepodcast.podomatic.com/rss2.xml , not the one you list. It has one episode, whose media file URL is
http://thecollectivepodcast.podomatic.com/enclosure/2013-06-14T16_06_53-07_00.mp 3
Your feed at http://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/48458062-the-collective-podcast/tracks has no episodes.
You will obviously need to get this sorted out before you can proceed. Once you have the soundcloud feed working properly you will need to add a special tag to the original feed in order to transfer the Store to using the new feed. The method is decribed here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/podcast.html#move
Please make sure you are completely clear about it before proceeding, and check that the new feed works by subscribing manually in iTunes before you try moving the Store to it.

With the newest Airport firmware (7.6.1), it seems I should be able to do this.
Really? I need to check that out!
You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

Hello ryane84
The easiest and most efficient way to copy your music is to follow the steps under the External drive section. Make sure that you have organized the iTunes library first before you copy it over. Then put the copied iTunes folder in the same Music folder on your computer.

Can I use LaCie Multimedia disk to see in TV, iTunes purchased movies?

Can I use LaCie Multimedia disk to see iTunes purchased movies in TV?
I share files from iTunes in my local network by authorising 3 computers, but none of these have HDMI connection to TV.
Can I use LaCie multimedia hard disk to store de movies from iTunes and connect then the Lacie disck to TV via HDMI?
Once I did it by simply copying an .m4v movie with no result. Also I think some downloaded file from iTunes blocket the HDMI conection to TV.
Any suggestio or experience...? I know that Apple TV is one solution but I don't want a new artephact and more HDMI connections. (BlueRay, TDT, iPlus etc.)
Thanks in advance.....

I have the same problem on my Toshiba TV. Cyrillic subtitles cannot be shown properly. Even symbols like ?, ?, or cannot be shown properly.
Until now I didnt found solution to this. Reading some other forums other people have described the same problem for Spanish language ( ).
Firmware is installed to the latest version but problem is still there.
By the way: can you please test this method and let me know if this works for you.
