I purchased tv shows from iTunes and keep getting a download error tap to retry.

I purchased tv shows from iTunes and keep getting a download error tap to retry.  Why don't the shows download?  What can I do?

Hello there Julfos,
I recommend this part of the article named iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1725.
If you cannot complete the download on your device, you can finish the download in iTunes on your computer and then sync it to your device. For instructions, see the following articles:
iTunes Store: Where can I download and sync my purchases?
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
Additional Information
If your purchase does not resume downloading after following the steps in this article, you can also try the following steps to troubleshoot the download issue.
Restart your computer or device.
Check for updates for your Mac or PC and install any software updates. Also, check for and install updates for any security software you may have (anti-virus, anti-malware, firewall, and so on).
If using Wi-Fi for Internet access, try using a different Wi-Fi network when downloading. If you are connecting to a home network, try restarting your Wi-Fi router. Also, check for and install any firmware updates for your Wi-Fi router. (Refer the manufacturer's website for your router to get information on updating its firmware).
If that does not resolve the issue then I recommend quitting all the apps running with this article, and trying again.
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Perhaps even forgetting your home network and rejoining it.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap > and Forget this Network. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network again.
Or resetting your network settings.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.
From: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • When I attempt to purchase a song from itunes, I keep getting the following error message: Could not purchase "song name". An unknown error occurred (-42408). There was an error in the itunes store. Please try again later

    When I attempt to purchase a song from itunes, I keep getting the following error message: Could not purchase "song name". An unknown error occurred (-42408). There was an error in the itunes store. Please try again later
    Can anyone help solve this problem?

    I've done a search on here and haven't found any solutions posted for it for windows computers. You could try posting in the iTunes For Windows forum and see if you get any suggestions in there (are you able to download other items from the store e.g. a free app ?) - I use a Mac, the only things that I could think of to suggest trying is see if you get the same error on a different iTunes library :
    creating and/or opening a different iTunes library : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589
    or using a different user account on your computer in case it's a problem with that user account.
    But you may want to try the iTunes For Windows forum first, apart from anything else you are likely to get better help for the above

    First try updating to iTunes 11.1.5.5, using an installer downloaded from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you still get the errors after that, try the following user tip:

    Trying to download a movie on my iPad and constantly receive a download error tap to retry. iPad has enough capacity.

    Tap to retry to download and when it starts attempting to download again tap on the pause button. Once it is paused, tap the button again to resume the download. However you need to be really fast doing this!
    Good luck!

  • TS1412 i purchased a movie from itunes and it will not download! why?

    i am on vacation and wanted to relax with a nice long movie so i purchased the film scarface for 9.99 on itunes and it will not download and through all of my effort to make it download i have learned about converters and all kinds of mumbo jumbo how do i just watch the movie that i purchased? i do not want to get a refund for the movie....

    this is the iMovie board - about the editing software delivered free with any Mac.
    purchased movies can only be playbacked in iTunes.
    any mumbo jambo probably gets better explained in the 'iTunes for Windows'-section of this board:

  • I just purchased a movie from iTunes and it will not download on either my new macbook and iMac. Keep getting error 8008.

    I have been having this problem with other movies for about a week now. I just tried my new macbook pro to see it it would download on it but I received the same error code 8008 (corrupt).
    I have about 60 movies I would like to download and back-up but it is happening on all of them.

    You probably need to delete your iTunes media downloads folder.  From http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297:
    "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023"
    These alerts occur due to timeouts or conflicts trying to write a file during download.
    If you encounter this issue while accessing iTunes Store:
    See iTunes 9: "One Moment Please" or "Error (-50)" message when accessing iTunes Store
    If you encounter this issue while while downloading something from the iTunes Store:
    Delete your iTunes Downloads folder, located in:
    Mac OS X:
  ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Downloads   Note: "iTunes Media" may appear as "iTunes Music. Also, the tilde (~) refers to your Home directory.
    Windows Vista:
  \Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    Windows 7:
  \Users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    Windows XP:
  \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    After locating your iTunes Downloads folder:
    Quit iTunes.
    Delete the Downloads folder on your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Choose Store > Check for Available Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password.

  • I have 70% downloaded a movie and now it says download error, tap to retry.  iTunes already billed me and I really want to watch this movie:) Help?

    Anyone have any advice?

    If tap to retry did not work, open up iTunes > click the drop down top right which should be your iTunes account/ email address > account > purchase history > find the purchase > click report a problem > click on the movie you purchased and then file report.

  • Downloading movies from iTunes....."error tap to retry."

    Why is this happening? I just paid 4.99 for renting a movie and I had to keep tapping it after i got that error numerous times. It got to about half way and now it won't continue. ???

    Define 'plenty'. I don't share your problem and, honestly, it seems as though relatively few others do. Aside from trying the approaches discussed in the Troubleshooting section of your User's Guide, I can't suggest anything beyond what was linked to above.

  • ITunes download error, tap to retry

    I purchased some songs from iTunes, and all except 3 downloaded just fine. 3 songs keep coming up "Download error, tap to retry". I have tried numerous times to retry the download, but keep getting the error message. I cannot select and delete the downloads, either. Subsequent downloads are working fine. How can I get rid of these 3 downloads?

    I can't confirm the 12 days part, but what I did find out is that the 3 songs I got did not appear as purchased items on my Apple ID I used for purchased, almost as if that connection was lost whenever I got the files (even if free from an iTunes promotion). The media files were on my OS X iTunes and I could transfer them to the phone, but I strongly believe because they are not attached to my Apple ID, and the download was interrupted somehow on the phone, that they appear as "not able to download".
    I would guess if Apple added these 3 songs to my purchased list it would go away - but I do not know if they could even do that without probably knowing some ID that would like it to the exact song to add.
    I tried a "reset all network settings" as the last resort before hanging up with an Apple tech (who was also not sure on how to solve). This did not work. Since this is not hampering my use of the phone, I will solve it some other day, perhaps when I next visit an Apple store and show them, maybe they would be interested in this scenario.
    For now, I think I would have to factory reset the whole phone to get rid of them.
