  • I recently rented a movie, it downloaded successfully, but it won't play.  When I call up the movie, there is no play button, just what appears to be a stop button.  How do I access this movie, or get a refund?

    As it says on the page that you posted from :
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
    Why it's like that I don't think that Apple have said (these are user-to-user forums). If you haven't downloaded it on your iPad then have you checked to see if you can download it on your computer's iTunes (Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option) or Apple TV ?
    If it doesn't show on either of them then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will let you download it on a different computer/device or refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • My child accidentally rented a movie on Apple TV.  Is there a way to refund the rental if we don't watch it?  How can I prevent this from happening?  Is there a way to password protect future purchases?

    Did you try Parental Controls?
    Apple TV: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls) - Apple Support
    See if that does the trick: I think there's a way for you to request a password for purchases, but still be logged in.

  • IPhone automatically starts backing up, then iTunes crashes

    Hi,
    Every time I plug my iPhone into the computer, it states: You have apps and what not purchased on your iPhone that are not on your computer. Do you want to transfer them from your phone to your computer?
    I always say no, and I have made sure that nothing is set to automatically sync when I plug in my iPhone (yes, I have checked that the apps are not set to sync). Anyways, I will say "don't transfer" and then it goes ahead and says "syncing iphone" and then it says "backing up iphone"... every single time I plug it in. Then, it will say it is backing up my voice memos, and it always gets stuck there and then iTunes on my computer locks up and has to be forced to quit (it was locked up for about 5 hours today). I can't update my iPhone, i can't change the content on there... it just immediately screws up like this. It's getting very frustrating.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Now, on a side note, I am not sure if this is causing anything to happen, but both my wife and I use the same computer to manage our iPhones on iTunes. I have an iTunes account, and she has an iTunes account. So, sometimes I notice that when I buy apps on my iPhone, it says that I am buying them under her account, and sometimes it says it is buying them under my account. I am guessing that whoever is logged into iTunes at the time I plug my phone in, my phone will automatically set itself to that account. Is that correct? Anyways, I think iTunes is saying that whatever apps that are on my phone that are not from the account that iTunes is currently logged in to, it wants to correct that and sync iTunes with my phone and make sure the same apps are on the computer as on my phone. Ahhrrrggg!
    Please help!

    As a start, create a new windows user account, log in, set up your iTunes account. Make sure that autosync is deactivated and back up manually by right clicking on your device and choosing "backup".
    Do the same with "transfer purchases" to copy your apps and media to the new iTunes library.
    If you made it that far without problems, set up at least one contact and event on your computer, to make sure contacts and events are merged after your phone got wiped during the first sync.
    Restore the rest of the data from your manual backup and you should have no more problems separating your purchases and apps.
    See what's included in the backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    I have come across some threads where users had problems transferring voice mail files during the backup made prior to a sync. They had to delete them to be able to complete the backup.

  • I'm trying to download an episode of Dr. Who but it keeps telling me it's going to take 24 hours, and then it crashes and says "there was a problem downloading an unknown error occurred 50.  Any Ideas on how to fix it?

  • HT1657 I rented a movie, it downloaded, I watched it and now I want to play it again.  It is in my iTunes Movies under rented but when I select it it doesn't open.  Why?

    read above

    Is this on your computer or on iPad/iPhone ? If you are on an iPad or iPhone then it should have downloaded into the Videos app - iTunes on those devices is just the iTunes store, and if you just see the Ts & Cs link on the Downloads tab then that means that there are no outstanding downloads waiting.

    help!

    Do you have any devices connected to your computer such as printers, webcams, etc?
    Try removing them if you do. I've seen some cases of this and sometimes unplugging these devices will work.
    I'd also suggest running MSconfig to ensure that there's no conflicting software. You can get all that information here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2292
    Another suggestion would be trying to create a test user (Admin privileges would be necessary). If it's able to install in that user account, you know it's something with the user. But if the installation is successful, it should install system wide.
    I would recommend trying this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    Good luck.

  • I was in the middle of downloading a song when my iTunes crashed and when I opened it back up, the song wasn't downloading anymore. However, when I went to re-download the song, since it has already been purchased, it won't let me. Help!

    Is there any way I can get that song now?

    What worked for me was -
    go to itunes
    tap 'more'
    tap downloads
    what happened with me was that the song itself had been partially downloaded, so it should say something like 'download failed. Tap to retry'
    make sure your wifi connection is strong
    tap it
    hopefully this works

  • ITunes crashed and I lost my downloaded games

    I upgraded to iTunes 7 on my iMac and downloaded a game.
    I never got it to my ipod before the application crashed and now it no longer appears in my iTunes library.
    What can I do?

    I have same problem. Bought a game, downloaded it to my mac - it showed up for about two seconds in Itunes and then Itunes crashed and the game disappeared.
    I cannot sync my Itunes properly anymore. Songs and photos sync ok, but then it locks up!
    Anyone know a fix?

  • I can't download any rented movie. When I start downloading Windows iTunes crashes and Windows close this program. What should I do?

    I can't download any rented movie. When I start downloading Windows iTunes crashes and Windows close this program. What should I do?

    If the problem is iTunes slowing down and not appearing to run correctly, you should check  this Apple article out-> Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    You may want to try resetting Winsock as a temporary fix.
    1. To do so, please do the following in an administrator user:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: Right click All Programs and choose Accessories > Command Prompt. Choose to open as an administrator.
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run and type in cmd.
    2. Enter the following command: 
    netsh winsock reset
    3. Restart the computer and test the issue.
    Note:  If the issue returns, third-party software may be reinserting the LSP.

  • My apple tv main menu no longer displays the "movies" section, just internet, computers, and settings. Does anyone know why or how to get it back up? Recently rented a movie directly through apple tv but can't see the movies section in main menu now.

    My apple tv main menu no longer displays the "movies" section, just internet, computers, and settings. Does anyone know why or how to get it to show again? Recently rented a movie directly through apple tv but can't see the "movies" section in main menu now. WiFi and home sharing are working.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check the location setting for the iTunes Store is correct.
    You might also try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    If you are still having problems try a restore.

  • I had rented some movies, put them onto my Ipod, watched them but now they will not delete from my list and also have expired I want to deleat them, what should I do?

    I had rented some movies on Itunes put them onto my Ipod classic, after I had watched them although they had expired they did not delete form the rentals list and almost one year later they are still there. The movies can not be watched and I have tried every thing I can think of, other than restoring the software ( that will probably be the answer ) What should I do?

    That is stealing. Your friend has no right/licence to give the songs to you. It violates copyright law.

  • I tried to rent a movie (Mean Girls) to watch with my daughter this evening. I paid for it and was trying to download it. It has been about 45 minutes. We have given up. can I get a refund?

    I tried to rent a movie (Mean Girls) to watch with my daughter this evening. It was downloading really slow. After about 45 minutes it had only downloaded about 5%. my daughter gave up and went to bed. Can I return this and get my money back? I was trying to download it on Apple TV, but it wouldn't work, so I purchased the rental from my I pad.  It would have taken hours to download at that rate. Usually I have no problem.
