I purchased a season of a TV show yesterday afternoon.  I've tried to watch it several times, but even this morning it still tells me it will be over 1 hour until it''s ready to be viewed.  Can anyone help?

I bought a season of a TV show yesterday afternoon.  When I tried to play an episode, it told me it would take 1 hour 45 minutes to download.  Of course each episode is only 50 mins or so.  I tried later in the evening, same message.
This morning I got the same message, only one hour and 20 minutes.  Finallly, the episode started to play so I thought all was well.  I had to pause the episode 35 minutes in and when I tried to resume, I got the same old message.  Although at first it said ready to play in 15 min, then that time frame started getting greater and greater so that now ii's up to 32 minutes.
Can anyone help?

Also, I have read I should take the battery out... but I'd have to unscrew the bottom to get at it... which i don't know if I trust myself doing.
And bearing in mind I've turned it on a few times to see if it is working (BAD I KNOW) is it still worth leaving it to dry for a few more days before taking it to Apple store of will I have already completely ruined its chances of surviving?

    When I open my email in the text box it doesn't show anything until i hit the forward button.  Can anyone help?

    See if any of the following help.
    Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    I inherited a 2003 ipod from my daughter. The controls will not work when it is plugged into a power source. Can anyone help?

    But they work normally when not plugged in?  What kind of power source are you plugging it into? It maybe outputting more than what the iPod can handle.  I had this happen to an iPod I plugged into a powerstrip that was plugged into the cigarette lighter in a vehicle an experienced the same thing.

    Unless that is a new product from Adobe (I say new because I have never heard of Adobe selling anything with that name) you are going to have to contact the actual vendor for help

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Does iTunes see the iPod?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?

    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:

  • Trying to restore my iPhone 5 from a backup but its says that it will take over 24 hours to finish. Is there something I can try to do to speed this up? I feel like it shouldn't take this long

    So I have been restoring my iPhone5 from a backup for about 3 hours now however iTunes still says that it is going to take over 24 hours to complete the restore process and the progress bar hasn't moved much at all. I feel like something has gone wrong somehow and it shouldn't take this long to complete. Is there something I can do to speed up this process or do I just have to try to wait it out? I'm scared to just unplug my phone and try again since it might screw something up.

    if u unplug then that could put ur device into recovery mode. i would wait

  • Why is there still a notification on my iPhone 5s after I already downloaded the new ios8 software? Can anyone help me to get rid of it?

    Aftee downloading the new ios8 software there is still a "1" notification on my settings. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of it? there is nothing that calls for attention once I get into the settings app. So I'm not sure what to do.

    Hi, S_kozun.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I see you have updated your iPhone to iOS 8 and still show an update notification in settings.  Check to see if you have an update to your carrier settings as this could be the issue.  
    iOS: Updating your carrier settings

    However, if the issue persists try forcing all applications to close in multitasking and restart the device.  Once this is done test to see if the behavior persists.

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • Finder bug in icon view. can anyone help me?

    So, I'm experiencing a weird bug since I've installed OS X Mountain Lion.
    When I set 'show items as icons' in Finder, the font used to label the files and folders are most of the time kinda messed up.
    (they're not the normal black clean fonts, but they are like a really pale ugly and hard to read gray color)
    And it's not like I'm using different fonts of whatever, it's a font smoothing/rendering issue.
    If I turn off the 'Use LCD font smoothing when available', fonts are OK again.
    The problem is that when I enter another folder, they are messed up again. Then I enable again the font smoothing option and they are ok (for that folder).
    When I go back to the parent folder, they are gray again.
    Also, when I make them "OK" with the LCD font option switch, they also become "NOT OK" as soon as I select them. (not individually, but making a box...yeah, weird uh?)
    Really weird. I've tried to restart/ force quit the finder (which again, fix the issue just within the home folder) / adjust permission (maybe I've messed up something, I dunno).
    Btw, it is not a clean install and I remember experiencing the same problem with Lion, one of the first days I've installed it, but then it went away (forever) after a day, so I didn't bother too much to find the cause.
    Again, it seems like some sort of finder bug, the million question is: Why am I (apparently) the only one experiencing it? Thx for help

    Hi Giorgiovdb!
    Unfortunately I cannot help you; all I did was test for you.
    I did an upgrade over my Lion install with Mountain Lion which went fine. I just tested icon view in my Finder on different files and folders and here in my installation all stays fine; good readable like in column view!
    The only thing you might try is change your Font in Finder and set it back to the original afterwards!
    I quickly Google'd how to change fonts in the Finder as appearantly there's no obvious gui item for it:
    http://usermanifest.wordpress.com/2012/07/06/osx-finder-title-bar-font/
    Try to see if it brings you anywhere!
    At my post all fonts act normal after my upgrade to Mountain Lion; I don't do a clean install unless I really have to!
    Goodluck!

  • IPhoto 08 will not open any events since 9.1.5 auto-upgrade. Can anyone help?

    I had an auto-update on my Mac OSX 10.5.8 for iPhoto program to Version 9.1.5 on July 14th. Since then I cannot open any events in iphoto when I double click on them. I can see the other pictures in each event but that's all. IPhoto only lets me scan in photo's. The program is now unusable.  I tried to delete the update of 9.1.5 and it doesn't show in finder now, then I downloaded IPhoto 8.0.2.  I had IPhoto Version 08, 7.1.5, at least that's what it reads in About.
    I hope someone can help me with this problem. Also, if I now have a thumb size photo on my desktop it no longer opens to a bigger view.
    Thank you.

    What version of iPhoto do you actually have?
    iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto
    If you have iPhoto 08 then the v9.1.5 update will have done nothing. Ditto with iPhoto v8.0.2
    You have the most up-to-date version of iPhoto 08 there is.
    I cannot open any events in iphoto when I double click on them. I can see the other pictures in each event but that's all.
    Check the double click speed on your Mouse.
    What happens when you try to open an Event?
    Regards
