I was going to buy some HD movies on Itunes, will they play in HD on my MacBook Air?

Depends on your screen resolution. System Preferences/ Display you will see the different screen support resolutions. Does it support 1980x1080? That is what HD resolution is. That being said on a screen as small as a MacBook Air you won't see any difference and if you are connecting to a monitor the display output is:
Pure digital video output
DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter (sold separately)
VGA output using Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter (sold separately)
Dual-link DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter (sold separately)
HDMI output using a third-party Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter (sold separately)
NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory3
Dual display and video mirroring: Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on an external display, both at millions of colors

  • HD movie from iTunes will not play on Mac Mini

    Having bought an HD movie from iTunes I can not play it on my Mac Mini. 
    Just get audio and Grey and white grid.  Controls are there but invisible. Why?
    It will play on my Macbook Air?
    I hve got no help from iTune support!
    Thanks

    I spoke to Apple Care today and they told me to reset the VIdeo Card preferences by re-starting the mini whilst holding down command/Alt/P/R until a second start tone sounded.  It seemed to sort out my problem.
    But the real reason why it worked was that I had plugged in a keyboard and was not controling the Mini using Screen sharing (via Macbook Air) as I normally do. As soon as I went back to screen sharing the movie would not play again. 
    So if you are playing movies on a mini don't control using screen sharing.

  • Rented movies on iTunes will not play?

    I rented a move on iTunes and in the middle of the movie I paused it and when I preset play the movie was still not playing? I runing the latest version of iTunes.

    Do the movies move but not play? Or do they not move? If you can post more details, including your model of iPhone and the OS version it's running and the version of iTunes you have, perhaps someone here can help you sort out the problem.
    As to contacting the iTunes Store, you can contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department using the form on their Support page (select the category and subcategory closest to the issue you're reporting and you'll find an "Email Us" button). But they'll probably have you go through troubleshooting steps first, so you might want to do so here, which is often easier and more helpful, before you contact the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • Movies in iTunes will not play

    I've got a load of movies I've put into itunes that play perfectly well - all h264 videos. If I go to front row and try to play them, I'll get the spinning gear for a split second and nothing. It won't play them or any other videos in iTunes. However, it is playing video podcasts ok and if I drag one of the unplayable videos into my movies folder, it can play it!
    Any ideas?

    Are you going through the "Music" option (that goes through iTunes) or the "Videos" option in Front Row? You might see if they'll play through the "Videos" option.

  • If I was going to buy a Refurbished iPad mini 2 Wi-Fi   Cellular for AT

    if I was going to buy a Refurbished iPad mini 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular for AT&T 32GB from Apple store can I get a Apple SIM to change it to Verizon.

    Go buy yourself a iPhone 5. Sync your iPhone 3GS to iTunes on you computer so you have a back up ready to put on the iPhone 5. If you want you can update your iPhone 3GS with iTunes on your computer, but this is not necessary.

  • I was going to buy monthly CC because I thought my CS6 license had expired and then it updated my creative suite 6 too. Do I now have 2 versions of everything? Do I need to have both?

    I was going to buy monthly CC because I thought my CS6 license had expired and then it updated my creative suite 6 too. Do I now have 2 versions of everything? Do I need to have both?

    It sounds like the Cloud managed to work its way into your system and take over the CS6 applications.  If you are happy with CS6 and don't want to afford the Cloud your license is likely as good as ever.  You just need to get the Cloud's claws out of your system.
    See if the following helps get you there...
    How do I prevent Creative Cloud from taking over my CS6 perpetual license?
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1584746
    Aside:  I was trying to update one of my CS6 applications thru the Application Manager last week and I decided afterwards I would try to update the manager since it seemed to get stuck.  I clicked a prompt without reading closely, turned away and returned to find the Application Manager was replaced with the Cloud Manager... which I guess is the latest update for it.  A similar thing happened on my previous machine and I was not happy with it because my other machine was not spec'd for the Cloud and it ended up resetting all my preferences.  So this time I immediately uninstalled it and decided I can live without it.  If I need any updates I'll look for them myself.

  • I am going to buy unlocked iphone 5.. i will be going to india nxt months and will stay there for a while... so my question is will i get warrenty in india.. and will there be any problem with using indian sims..?? thnx for the help..

    The warranty for the iPhone is not and has never been International.
    Warranty and support are ONLY valid in the country of origin.  The only exception is the EU where the entire EU is treated as one country.
    If the device will be used in India, buy it in India.
    An unlocked iPhone will work on any supported GSM carrier world wide.  The LTE portion of a US purchased, unlocked iPhone is unlikely to work outside North America as it does not support the appropriate bands used in other countries.

  • I just downloaded and installed the new iTunes on a Toshiba Satelite of some age. It was just completely reformated and updated with XP. iTunes will not open. The terms page comes up and when I agree it disappears. I have uninstalled and reinstalled.

  • I was going to download a book off of Itunes and when I went to download it my zip code didn't match my card so I wasn't able to download it. now I have a pending charge on my account from Itunes for the book I never received, will I still be charged?

    Digital Editions can open files of .pdf , .epub and .acsm format.
    When you click on a download link from an online bookstore, a .acsm file gets downloaded to the "Downloads" folder of your computer. You need to double click on this .acsm file(if Digital Editions is already installed) to get the book. If you still get a message saying that your computer doesn't have a way to open this file, please manually associate Digital Editions to the .acsm file type OR open Digital Editions and drag and drop the .acsm file onto Digital Editions.
    Hope this helps. Thanks!

  • I can't buy music or movies on iTunes. When I try it says something like "A duplicate filename has been specified."

    When I try to buy an album or buy/rent a movie on iTunes Store Argentina it gives me the following error: "Cannot buy/rent (item name here). A duplicate filename has been specified."
    Below that it says:"There is an error in iTunes Store. Please try again later."

    After getting your password reset you might then need to log out of your account on your iPhone by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

    i jailbreak my phone but i did buy some app ... what will happen to app when i restore my phone..

    It will probably turn into an unusable brick, but that is the risk that you run if you jailbreak your phone rather than having it officially unlocked.
    Talk about jailbreaking is prohibited in these forums and is not supported by Apple.

  • Download movies on iPad will not play, Download movies on iPad will not play

    Downloaded rented movies  on ipad2
    from iTunes will not play on ipad2

    This has been an ongoing problem for me too. With my iPad 2 I buy a tv show or rent a movie and it does not show up in the Video App. This is very frustrating (= very upset Apple customer) You spend money to see something remotely, wait along time to download it, potentially incur or use precious minutes with your limited data plan and in the end can not view it. Additionally, the entire process has some severe usability issues. Why do you have to go to another App to see your movies. When you click purchase you should be first presented a download time bar and then either as it is in the midst of being downloaded be able to start watching it and/or after it has been downloaded you should be provided the movie to view it. Not bumped to the landing page of the iTunes App. how stupid is that. So you are there at the landing page for iTunes. Your first inclination is to try to navigate within iTunes to see it. If it is a,TV show that you rented your first inclination is to go to the TV show section. Then form there you will like deduce that you need to go to Purchases. but when you click Purchases it instead takes you  first to Music purchases. Then you might see or realize that there is a,TV show tab in the Purchases section, so you go there and and as opposed to showing you a chronological list of most recent individual purchases is defaults to a list of full seasonal TV show purchases, so then you see the seasonal show and it show an iCloud butont to download then entire season, hmm that would suck to then download the entire season, use all your minutes and then not be able to view any show cause even thoses don't show up in the Apple video App. I mean come on this really terrible, TERRIBLE useability.
    So I have gone to the Apple Video App and nothing shows. I have done a search from the Apple search you can access when swiping right from the initial page of App icons. I actually see the TV show name listed from the title name search I do. And indeed it shows an associated Video App icon but when I click it momentarily (split second looks to be loading the video App and then crashes? And takes me back to the first screen of App icons.
    So I simply can not watch any show with ITunes.
    Netflix on the hand make the entire process a one click experience.
