I bought a movie on AppleTV, but how can i download it to my computer?

I bought the movie on the new (black box) AppleTV, but cant download it to my computer.  I've tried "Check for available downloads" from the store menu in iTunes on my Mac, but it doesnt find anything to download.  

Use the purchased option from the quick links section in the top right corner of the iTunes Store homepage.

  • How can i download music from my computer to my i phone

    how can i download music from my computer to my i phone?

    If the music you are wanting to have on your iphone was purchased through itunes you can then go to your front display to settings>itunes and app store from there you have a toggled switch that allows you to automatically download music and apps by toggling the switch. You will need to toggle the switch below these switchs that allows for cellular data to be enabled if this has not already been enabled. This then will automatically download music and apps directly to your device with no additional charge to you.
    Good luck.

  • How can I download music from another computer's music library to my Ipod without losing my own music?

    How can I download music from another computer's music library to my ipod without losing my own music?

    You'll want to enable Manually Manage Music and Videos. Once you do that you'll be able to drag and drop the music from the computer to the iPod.

  • HT1473 I bought a movie on itunes but it won't download and won't play... suggestions?

    I've had my itunes account for years.  Recently purchased a movie, Dallas Buyer's Club. 
    The movie shows up in my cloud, but I can't download it and can't watch it. 
    Anybody else having this type of issue?

    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 purchased a movie on my iPhone, how do I download it to my computer?

    I purchased a movie, and I want to download it to my computer, but when I go to transfer purchases on iTunes it doesn't have a section for movies. How do I download it to my computer without having to plug my phone in to watch it everytime?

    Go back to the iTunes Store.  Tap More at the bottom right. Tap Tones on the next page. Find the ringtone you want and buy it.

  • How can i download purchases when 'this computer is already associated with an apple iD'

    This has happened many times when using iTunes.
    My iTunes is authorised with this computer, and i can make purchases off the iMac I'm using and
    have the music be in my iTunes library.
    BUT, I also have an iPad, and I've downloaded a few songs off iTunes on my iPad, and I'm having trouble
    re-downloading them to my Mac.
    I went into my user>purchases>download all
    but it came up with a notice saying:
    'This computer is already associated with an apple ID,
    You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days.
    You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 64 days.'
    Please help? Ive seen this notice before, and I think i just hit 'Okay' but I can't download my songs to my mac now.
    Thanks a lot xx
    -Olivia M

    To move the purchases to your computer, click here and follow the instructions. If desired, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff if they'll waive the waiting period.

  • I bought a movie (Avengers hd) but it can´t no longer be played in my itunes, it says that it needs a hdcp screen, but i´ve played it before, and if i want to download it again it´s requiered payment

    Hi guys, hope u can help me, i bought a movie from itunes a few months ago, and i´ve played it before in my laptop (Toshiba Satellite L755D) with windows 7 home premium, i have my Bill in my e-mail, but when i try to play it now, it won´t! a message comes back with a legend saying something like this: "To play avengers hd you must have an integrated screen that allows hdcp" but i´ve played it before tons of times!!! whats wrong..? and when i go to the store and point an error on the selected item (avengers hd) it says that my search has no results!!! please help me :-( is not fair that i spend almost 20$ for something that it´s just not working anymore!!!

    Movies are not always available for redownload.  Is there a reason why you deleted it instead of simply transferring the purchase to the computer and then removing it from the iDevice?

  • How do I get rid of songs with complications? I would just restore my ipod, but I bought alot of new music, and I can't download it to my computer, I really don't want to lose it. Any help?

    So, awhilw back I tryed to sync my ipod with my friends itunes library, my ipod didn't have any room to store all the music so all the songs came up but can't be played. I tryed to sync my ipod to my itunes library, and it keeps saying the ipod's over capacity and won't download any of the new music I bought to the library. If I can somehow back up my new music to the icloud or something, that'd be great that way I could just restore my ipod then download all my music back on it. Is there a way to do that or did I just waste thirty bucks on music I can't listen to?

    You need to delete the music you got from your friend. You fried does not have the licence/right to give you a copy of it.
    I would restore the iPod from a backup on your computer and sync your own media to the iPod.

  • Bought a 2nd hand MBA but now can't download iPhoto

    I recently bought a 2nd hand Macbook Air and it already had Lion installed. It didn't come with the Lion USB so I can't do a reinstall if I wanted.
    Now when I sign in to the App Store and try to download iPhoto or Garageband, I can't. It says something about my profile not being allowed to download it as the download is attached to another account, presumably the previous owner.
    So how am I able to download iPhoto? I don't mind paying for it, but it still won't let me as the only option I get is "Download".
    Any ideas would be great.
    Thanks

    I think you will need to wipe the drive and reinstall Lion after purchasing your own copy from the App Store. I suggest the first thing you should do now is backup anything on the drive you need to keep. Then sign in to the App Store under your Apple ID and purchase and download Lion if that's possible - I think you should be able to do that.
    How To Re-Download The Lion Installer
    This appeared as a hint at MacOSXHints.com, and will work to force the download of any purchase on the Mac App Store.
    Open the Mac App Store.
    Navigate to your Purchased page.
    Hold down the Option key on your keyboard and click on your 'OS X Lion' purchase link (not on the 'installed' button).
    You see the Lion product page. It should say 'Installed,' but that button is clickable. Hold down the Option key again and click on 'Installed.' If you don't hold the option key it will tell you there's already a newer version installed.
    Enter your login credentials.
    Download.
    It's important to hold down the Option key twice. Once on the Purchased page, once on the Lion page. You also can't navigate to Lion directly, you need to open it from the purchases page.
    If you follow this procedure you should find the Lion Installer in your Applications folder. Be sure to move it to your Downloads folder for safekeeping. Do not use it to install Lion, rather make a copy to use.
    Once you can download Lion you want to keep it and make a bootable USB flash drive installer for yourself:
    Make Your Own Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that  you can use without having to re-download Lion.
    Use the installer to first erase your hard drive then install Lion:
    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot from your USB flash drive installer:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the USB flash drive and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • Im trying to delete old messages from my iphone 4 but how can i view them on a computer to make it easier?

    hi i have recently backed up my iphone 4 to do a wipe of my phone. i got all my info back on it but was wondering how can i view my messages on my computer so that i can delete old messages from months ago without actually having to delete the recent ones?

    The backup includes text messages but they are stored in a format meant only for restoring back to the phone. There are 3rd party backup extractors that can view them. One of them is http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ibackupextractor/

  • Album bought on my IPhone... How can I download it on my computer?

    Hi everyone,
    I have bought an album on the ITunes application of my IPhone. I thought I'd be able to have on my computer too (a Mac Book Pro), but I can seem to find it... Can anyone help me with this? My IPhone is to be exchanged in the next few days for I have a problem with my battery... I just hope I haven't bought the said album for just a couple of days!
    Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me... and Happy Easter!
