I gifted a specific movie in HD, can the recipient download this movie in SD?

I gifted The Fall in HD to a friend. The recipient of the gift received it and downloaded it without knowing that his computer does not play HD movies. In the past, I've been able to download SD versions of HD things I've purchased - can he download the SD version of this movie? If so, how?

Here's what I've found. Mind you, this mentions for the purposes of syncing to an iOS device, but that part can be ignored:
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer. You can download the latest version for free here.
Open iTunes on your computer.
From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
Navigate to your Purchased page. Find it by clicking Movies or TV Shows from the top navigation bar in the iTunes Store, and then click Purchased from "QUICK LINKS" in the iTunes Store.
Choose the appropriate video type: Movies or TV Shows.
In the lower-right corner of the screen, deselect the box next to "Download HD When Available."
Search for the desired video and click the download button.
This should download the standard definition version to your computer so you can sync to your device.

Can the iPad download software from the web like the Palm TX can??

Can the iPad download software/applications from the web that you can then upload to your Desktop or Laptop like the Palm TX can? (yes I've got one just for that reason but I'd love to have an Apple branded product)
So far the Apple Store people don't seem to know.
If not, there will be many people won't buy it, me included... And every person that does't buy one is a loss of revenue.
The lack of this key ability is why I haven't bought an iPod or iPhone…
Come on Apple answer our prayers.

YES, exactly.... I do NEED a small light weight device (smaller and cheaper than a Mac laptop) to carry around with me every day to download software to that I can download to use on my home computer.
The Palm TX was such a device that served such purpose... Somewhat over priced for for its small storage capacity and no longer available but a good product idea.
Except for the once a month NEED to download large applications (mostly version updates), I don't really have a NEED for cable broadband @ $49.99 per month ($599.88 per year) or DSL @ $39.99 per month (479.88) per year.
My email, shopping, banking and such only NEEDS dial-up @ $99.00 a year, which is what I have.
The fact people feed their WANTS instead of choosing only to feed their NEEDS is why many people are in debt often over their heads.
I haven't had any built up debt for decades. I try very hard to only take care of my NEEDS and not squander money on things I only WANT but don't really NEED.
I LOVE the Mac OS, it's one of the best OSs out there (priced good too)..... Next to Xerox's "Small Talk" (in-house R&D only) and Unix. But Apple's pricing of computers may drive me to the Dark Side or the Gray Side.. Linux .
And I'm also hoping that USB 3 will be soon on Macs so I don't have to pay the extra freight for Firewire as USB 3 will serve my NEED for faster than USB 2 speeds to the external devices I NEED to use.
One of the Prime Rules of Business is... Volume = Profit (or more profit)

Can the appliance do this?

I want to be able to lay on my back (I am disabled) and type documents into the iPod Touch using a virtual keyboard. Can the appliance do this?
I would also like to use a microphone to record audio onto the hard disk. can it do this? I know the regular iPod can.
Does it have "dictation" software for it, so I can speak and have it translated to something like ext?
Thanks for any advice.

The iPod touch is basically just an internet enabled music/video player - not really a full-blown handheld computer (although it does share some features).
You can type into it using the on-screen touch keyboard, but it wouldn't really be suitable for long documents. Also there's no word processor, just a simple Notes application and Email.
The iPod touch does not have a microphone input. So unless someone develops an external plugin microphone no recording features are available.
There is no dictation software for it. Partly because there's no microphone input, and partly because there are no extra applications (apart from what comes with it) available for it yet. This will change once third-party developers get the SDK this month, although I don't know if dictation/translation software is even possible, let alone if someone will produce it.

Can I gift a specific movie for a friend to download?

My sister and brother-in-law's family in Canada use iTunes to watch films; we are in the UK.
I would like to send them the gift of a particular movie which I like.
Normally, I might just order online for a DVD to be physically delivered to them by Amazon.ca in time for Xmas. (But this Christmas, I have pledged to steer clear of Amazon as part of a protest at the near slave conditions they extract from their "employees.")
So: is there any way I can pay iTunes (using my account) for my brother-in-law to download just this specific film?
I know I could just give them an iTunes voucher with which they could download any film they like. But, somehow, it feels more like a Christmas gift if I give the one movie I have chosen; otherwise, I might just as well transfer money into his bank account - which doesn't feel Christmasy at all.
Is this workable. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric

Thanks, Niel.
I suspected as much - but I'm afraid the precise phrasing of your answer begs another question:
- can you, then, gift specific content to people in the same country as you?

I have 5updates notifications on my application, but could not download/install. the error messages is application can nto be download this time try again. i have tried severalyy but not installed

I could not installed/download the 5 updates notifcations on my application icon. the error messages is that application can not be download now try again. I have tried it several times but it will not down load.

Keep trying, sometimes they can take a number of attaempts.

Can the app downloaded from the appstore run on mac book pro

I don't have iphone or itouch. Can i run the downloaded application on my macbook. Is there any software to do that. Thanks.

Acorrding to the technical specs, it shoots mpeg4/h.264... However, I see other places mention it is MTS...
Do you still have the original file structure intact? Or do you have just individual movie files? whats the extension? .MTS, .MPEG4, MOV?
If MTS and you no longer have the original file sturcute intact, you need to use Clipwrap, if you do have the original files structure, you may be able to import using Log and Transfer....

Can the items in this grfx be deleted without harming or hobbling FCP?

SnapZ Pro recently released a revision. It wrecked havoc with my system (and no longer functions). In talking with support, I was told the problem is a group of third party QuickTime components. The person on the phone suggested I delete everything in the following folders: /Library/QuickTime/ and user/Library/QuickTime. Both folders are hidden by default. The attached screengrab shows the contents of the only one of the two folders I could find.
I shared this grab with the support person. He commented that they are all very old and incompatible and won't be missed. I'm inclined to agree with him as they are all more than 14 months old and nothing new seems to have been added to the folder. Still, I'm in the middle of a half dozen projects and cannot afford to have my FCP hobbled. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
PS Just for background, here's the Ambrosia instructions as well:

Does anyone even recognize these components? I can't get SnapZ Pro back until I delete them but I don't want to drop a hammer on my own toe!

Can the user download the report file to their own destination?

Hello,
I want to have a report run that will take a destination as provided by the user and save the report output there. Is this possible? (Its a delimited file.)
Thanks,

You can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to do this.

Looks like it might be "Exposure Flash" from CoreMelt's Polychrome V2 plugin collection.

HT201364 why can't i download this I have a brand new MacBook

I have a brand new mac and says I dont have the requirements

Your "brand new" machine actually has a newer build of Mavericks than the version available on the App Store. So you can't use the version available in the App Store, as it doesn't include the drivers for your new Retina MacBook Pro.
If you need to re-install the OS, you can boot into the recovery partition and re-install the OS, so you can get Mavericks that way if you really need it.

Why can I not download this as a full album?

I purchased the album The Days of Grays about a year ago, and very recently the iTunes store is forbidding me from downloading it as a whole album, it doesn't even show up in my purchase history anymore. I have to play around with the search to get songs to show up individually so I can manually get iTunes to recognized that I have indeed purchased it. I was never even given the digital booklet for the album to begin with and that's where this whole issue stems from.

Very strange, it does show all my information
and it does have the Country of Region as USA
payment shows my AMEX
So, what gives?
This is truly strange.
Never had this problem before iOS 6
This ***** BIG TIME

Why can't I download this update AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.6.4

I have version 6.3.1 for an Airport Extreme and I was not able to download this update AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.6.4 Why what is the problem ?
Running OS X .7.5 Lion on a Mac Pro 1,1 software update will not find it either.

Hello,
Would you minds sharing what you did to be able to dowload the 7.6.4 firmware update? Greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

The recipient can't see the balance of an iTunes gift amount.

I gifted an amount via app store but the recipient hasn’t received anything 5 days later.
The amount has already been withdrawn from my credit card and I have already received a receipt from Apple.
Thanks

Hi jaco4377,
How to see your iTunes gift balance is described in this article -
iTunes Store: iTunes Gift balances
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5035
If the balance is still not showing up, you may need to contact iTunes Store Support to get things straighten things out. See the link at the bottom of the page above.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

I have a mac OS x 10.4 any of my updates ( frost wire) say I need at least 10.5 can I just download an update for this?

Can i download an update. My mac osx 10.4 is suppose to be at least a 10.5 to download java to allow me to play and download music> Can I simply download this, my software update always says I am up to date, but nothing new runs.

Going from 10.4 to 10.5 is not an update; it is a newer operating system upgrade which you need to pay for; however, 10.5 is already "outdated" because the latest OS - 10.6 - has been out for quite a while.
You didn't provide any details - model/year of your Mac - so can only guess at this point. If your Mac meets the system requirements for 10.6, you could buy that for $29 or less retail, or you could try to find 10.5 on ebay (beware of machine specific disks, they won't work - only look for retail disk).
Check the system requirements for 10.6 here:
