I Don't Want TV Shows Downloaded to My Computer

I noticed that when I download TV shows from the iTunes store for my ATV that every time I get on iTunes through the computer it is synced to it automatically downloads the episodes to my computer. Is it possible to stop this from happening?

The ATV is intended primarily as a media player for iTunes files, it is not a storage device. Files you buy from the iTunes store will sync to iTunes on your computer by default. The only way to avoid this is to delete the files before you open iTunes again, but you will lose the files permanently if you do. Likewise, if they sync to your iTunes library and you delete them from there, they will be deleted from the ATV on the next sync.

    it's best to just let it download, then delete once it is on your computer.

  • Don't want iTunes to download Album Artwork

    Hi all,
    Since I add all the album-artwork by hand (and include it in the mp3-file) I don't want iTunes to download the artwork automatically.
    So I think i made all the neccessary settings
    (unchecked the 'Automatically download missing album artwork' option in the 'preferences/Store' tab)
    , and cleaned the 'iTunes/Album Artwork/Cache/' and 'iTunes/Album Artwork/Download/' folder.
    But today I noticed that after start of iTunes, there already/again where folders/files in the 'download' folder, these takes unnecessary disk-space etc, so how can i prevent/enable this?
    grts, Peter
    (ps, i don't download music from itunes, I rip my own cd's, put them in a separate folder and add these folders to Itunes library, so

    I have just the same question. I don't want iTunes to store that album artwork, it takes that disk space for nothing, I don't mind if iTunes would have to analyze that data every time I open it

  • HT1549 I don't want other computers connect with my computer, I don't want sharing my macbook pro, so how I can protect my computer and avoid other people connect with my computers

    I don't want other computers connect with my computer, I don't want sharing my macbook pro, so how I can protect my computer and avoid other people connect with my computers

    As long as you do not enable Sharing of any kind (System Preferences > Sharing) no other computer can connect with yours. Also make sure you have your wireless network protected with a WPA2 password.
    That's all I can suggest without knowing what OS version you are running (you are not running iOS as that is for iDevices).

  • I don't want to show up as a contact in my own phone... DUH!

    I'm not going to call myself so I don't want to see my name and contact info on my phone.
    I tried deleting my contact card in Address Book but then when I want to use iChat it makes a new one for me before I can use iChat again.
    I know you can just make groups and sync those instead of all of them but I dont like that. It seems to add more clutter to the phone and thats part of the reason I have an iPhone... no clutter, straightforward and elegant.
    So, my question is- "is there any way to make it so I don't show up in my own phone as a contact without deleting my contact card or syncing with groups?"
    Thanks!

    I have the same issue...and for me, when it added me as a contact to my phone, it replaced my husband's photo in his contact info with mine (my Mac avatar), I think because we have the same home phone number (obviously!). When I deleted myself as a contact from the phone, all of his stuff magically reappeared correctly in his contact info.
    This doesn't happen when I sync with my Vista machine - only my Mac.

  • New Mac - Don't want Mail auto downloading all my old emails.

    I am getting a new Mac and from previous experience, once you open Mail it automatically downloads all the old emails situated on your ISP's mail server.
    As I have got these emails saved on my present computer I don't want all 1,500 of them downloading to my new Mac.
    I could prevent it by deleting the emails on my ISP's mail server but I want to keep them there as an independent  backup.
    Is there any way I can configure Mail to ensure that it only downloads new emails and not the old ones?

    I've been mulling this over overnight and wanted to follow up.
    The only thing I can think of is if your email is set up using the older POP technology, you could do this one of two ways:
    1/ migrate your mail across, then from within the mail app, delete whats there (ensure your delete from server settings are switched to off - if only for this section).  This will tell the server that you've already downloaded the existing mail and it ill only download new emails.  IMPORTANT: this will only work for a POP Account.
    2/ Again, POP only but you could alternatively redownload all the mail, and perform the #1 steps.
    As for IMAP accounts, these by nature Sync with the server, so I think you're firmly out of luck.

  • Don't want auto music download on iPad

    When I buy music from the iTunes store on my iPad, it downloads automatically. I don't want that to happen. I am quite content to leave the music in iTunes in the Cloud untiI I really want it downloaded. I do have automatic downloads turned off in iTunes & App Store settings, but the auto downloads keep happening. Is this normal? What can I do to actually keep unwanted downloads from happening?

    OK, but it makes no sense to me. Given the ease of playing music directly from the cloud, it would seem that the default option would be not to download music automatically, especially when auto downloads is set to off! The way it is now, I have a lot of extra work to do to delete all the songs manually.

  • Hide/Delete, do something with information I don't want to show - help!

    Hi everyone,
    I hope you can help me out.
    I current have to submit pdfs to our auditors to backup financial information.
    I have a 2 page document that I need to submit however, on the second page there is information that I do not want to show the auditors.
    I am hoping for a way to hide the information with a rectangle and then fill it in with black (or white) or something like this so that they will not be able to see this information.
    How can I do this?
    I am using Adobe 9 Pro (the free trial version)
    I have managed to put a rectangle around the information I want hidden, but can't figure out how to hide it.  The pdf that I am using does weird things if I try to use the text tool and delete the text, so I was hoping for a quick and easy way to cover the information.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

    Use the redaction tool.

    Have you...?
    If you want to use Armitage, do not install Metasploit with the 4.5 installer.
    Previous versions of the Metasploit installer separated Rapid7's commercial products and the open source programs. The 4.5 installer installs one environment shared by Rapid7's commercial and the community's open source interfaces. msfconsole and armitage still load, but it's a different environment. The teamserver script does not work in the environment setup by the new installer. On Linux, I've verified that Armitage loads and works, but you'll see syntax errors due to it trying to load "pro modules". I've seen reports that it does not load on Windows.
    For now, use the 4.4 installer and run msfupdate. The 4.4 installer ships with the same dependencies as the 4.5 installer. msfupdate will give you the latest sourcecode for 4.5.
    To uninstall, run: /opt/metasploit/uninstall
    I suspect that these things are an easy fix. I'll keep you posted.

  • Once you've downloaded a software program and the download choice is 'launch' I don't want to launch it on this computer, but to make a disk image. I chose the save to desktop destination....where do I go from here?

    downloaded microsoft office 2010 volume license and want to burn to a dvd, not launch on the host computer. If I close the application, will it be saved to the desktop destination as requested or would I lose the download by not launching it?

  • Don't want phone to download all of my yahoo contacts.

    How do I keep it from dong that and is there anyway to remove them?

    I believe it happens in the download app for Y Mail.
    There is a little checkbox on the bottom when you set up the yahoo account. if you don't uncheck the box that is how it imports the contacts in your phones contact list.
    If you forgot to uncheck it the only way I found is to delete the duplicates from the phones contacts list. Sorry.
    however after the account is set up, the merge contacts does not add to your contact list when checking for email.
    Yahoo should of had this feature set to off and allowed the user to turn it on if they desired.
