I downloaded some tv episodes and wheni tried to play them they wouldn't work.
I down loaded some tv episodes last night and when I tried to play them (after they were fully downloaded) all that showed was a black screen and no sound. Im thinking they may have downloaded wrong and I might need to re-download, except I dont know how to do that without having to buy them again. so could you please tell me how to fix this porblem or re-download my tv shows?
Contact iTunes and explain what happened and request a redownload.

I recently purchased a season pass for a TV show on my apple tv I downloaded the first episode and when I went to watch it it started to download again and is now frozen at "ready to watch in 44 minutes"????? I have had it do the reloading process on an entire season of another show (very frustrating) but have never had it freeze up like this? any help out there?
There is no accessible storage so that is why it needs to reload. The time it take is dependent on your network. Not sure why it is freezing this time but you may want to try a reboot (hold the menu and down arrow for a few seconds until the light starts flashing and then release)

After iPhoto update some photos go black when trying to edit them and am unable to edit those photos
After iPhoto update some photos go black when trying to edit them and am unable to edit those photos. How do I fix this as this is the latest update?
If I hold down the Option key while launching iPhoto, I get the option to start a new library. Do I have to import all my thousands of photos into the new library?
In his original post the poster referenced the following. As to the new Library, see the end.
There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. *Permissions in the Library* : Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. *Minor Database corruption*: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. *A Damaged Photo*: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. *A corrupted iPhoto Cache*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. *A corrupted preference file*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
*If none of these help*:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

I just restored my computer to the beginning and I did backup my files but when i tried to restore them i wouldn't work, then I tried to do it manually and the was an error. I really want my itunes files that I downloaded back can i redownload them?
If you are in the US then yes, you should be able to re-download them, as long as they are still in the store and you use the same iTunes account as your originally used to buy them : re-downloading
If you are not in the US then they cannot currently be re-downloaded. Have you not got a different backup of your purchases that you could try copying them back from ? -
This thing is horrible. I rented a movie to watch later. Confirmed the movie was downloaded (available to watch) and when I hit "play" it tells me it will be ready to watch in 19-hours! What's up?
The ATV has no storage to speak of, so all content is streaming.
If the user desires to download first and play later, do so via iTunes on the computer. -

My rentals auto-delete when trying to play them on ipad! (they were not expired)
I had 5 rented movies on my iPad which were recently rented. However when I try playing them, they disappear from the iPad! I don't know who I can contact for this! Is iTunes to reclaim the movies I wanted to see? Do I try an iPad forum? I think it mauy be a glitch on with the videos app. Ever since I updated it, it's been glitching on the sequence of TV Shows and screwing up the rentals.

John,
While the grayed x corners are showing, Arrange > Unlock.
Now you will be able to manipulate or delete the borders.

I recently purchased a tv episode from ITunes. It shows that it has downloaded. When I press play it starts to load then immediately returns to the episode page. I have tried rebooting several times.
Basics from the manual are restrt, reset, restore.
Have you tried each of these? -
Songs in my iTunes Library are being skipped when trying to play them
Hello,
Would anyone know why I can't play any of my songs listed in my iTunes Library? All of the songs are in the cloud.
When I try to play a song it will jump over to the next one in the list and jump over and over again without playing any of the songs listed.
Thx,
BrunoYou can't. If you don't have access to that ID, delete them and then download them from yours; this may require repurchasing them.

Can't play a movie i rented with i tunes on my apple tv
I had the same issue. Resolved it by changing the security settings on my router...( log into your router by following your routers instructional guide, most are available online. Under the wireless setting, look for some variation of security settings, change WEP setting to WPA. )
I was using ethernet cable and not wireless, and still am, but this solved the problem. I have a 1.3Mbps speed connection.
Fast test to see if its the router....
If you want to see if it's the routers that is effecting you, and have a iphone 4 or similar smart phone, create a wireless hot spot on the phone and connect the Apple TV to it. Try to view your rental now. If the error message still occurs then its not your router, and you can recommence pulling all your hair out..... -
I purchased and downloaded some tv episodes which were supposed to be 43 minutes each. When I went to play them, they were like clips of 30 seconds each. what should I do?
Where are you watching these shows? On an iOS device? If you are, look in the Videos app on the device, not in the iTunes app.

I recently tried to burn some photos on a CD. For some reason, It did not work. Now I have a .fpbf folder on my desktop. I can't seem to get rid of it. I tried dragging it to the trash, but then I get a box asking my to type my password it, so Finder can make the changes. Doing so, does nothing at all. And when I try to burn another CD from the same .fpbf file, I get a the following message: "There are 35 items that can’t be burned because the original items can’t be found. Skip the items and continue burning?". When I skip and continue burning, nothing shows up on the CD. In the meantime, the .fpbf folder is still in my desktop. I tried changing the aliases on each pic, but it still doesn't work. Any ideas of how I can remove this folder from my desktop?
Thank you.Beavis2084,
Thank you for your detailed explanation but something is seriously wrong with my computer. Although the method you have described is very similar to the one I tried in step 2 from my second post, I have since "done things" which may have complicated matters—or suggests that my computer has a more serious problem.
Here's what I did:
1). Installed Onyx and discovered that I had a .plist file (com.apple.iphotomosaic.plist) that was causing a Syntax error: "Conversion of data failed. The file is not UTF-8, or in the encoding specified in XML header, if XML." After doing some research online, I was given the understanding that downloading the iLife update 9.0.3 (I installed the more recent version, 9.0.4) would solve this problem because it would also fix some system issues. So, I downloaded it...and when it didn't solve the problem, I decided to just deleted that .plist file.
2). I read your knew post and decided to follow your directions, even though I realized they were basically the same steps I followed in the 2nd method I mentioned earlier. I say "basically" because, for some reason, after inserting a blank disc, my computer does not open the disc in the Finder. Instead, it places the blank disc's image on the Desktop, even though the Finder's Preferences and the System's Preferences are set to have it open in the Finder—nothing should be on my Desktop! (Note: When transferring the items (all folders) I want to burn to the blank disc, I did not use the Option-Click-Drag method as before, I used the Click-Drag method, which created the curved arrow in the lower left corner of each item.)
Now, for the result of "method 2," the method we basically have in common, the computer goes through the burn stage but, in the verify stage, tells me that it is unable to verify the disk, suggests that my DVD may be unreliable and that I should try another disc, and then tells me about some "fork" (?) error (-43).
I don't know what to do anymore... -
When trying to install a digital copy, everything works including the downloading, until it is processing to iTunes then I receive "You do not have enough access privilages for this operation. Check the disk to make sure it is clean and retry." error.
Tryed several times, Same Results. Tryied rebooting, logging out & into iTunes, Same Result. Seems to do this error with every digital copy, but works eventually. But now will not post digital copy to my iTunes at all. Just same error over and over.
Any Thoughts??Oddly enough. I think I just solved it. It looks like, for some reason, my computer has about 8 different "iTunes music" folders, and I've been saving my music to the wrong one. Neat. Music now imports and plays as it should. Copying things over is going to be so fun tonight!
