Ignoring Video downloads

Software Update has an option to "ignore update" is there any such option in iTunes in order to ignore download? I'm asking for 2 reasons. Number 1 is that sometimes I mistakenly buy the HD version, instead of the SD version, of a TV series and woops, I have a ton of downloads I don't want, and my ISP is not too happy about huge data downloads! Number 2, twice when I have contacted support for iTunes, instead of actually reading my email, tech support has jumped the gun and, kindly, but mistakenly, loaded up my queue with duplicate downloads of whole seasons that I already have and don't want to download again.
It is easy to stop and delete these downloads but they just continue to show up over and over and over until finally I give in and download.
Is there a way to get rid of these unwanted downloads without downloading?

Not unless the iTS Customer Service helps you and removes items. When purchasing a HD version as I understand you get the SD version too. I am always careful to be sure that I am only purchasing the SD version.

  • Can the first generation iPad play an 720p HD video downloaded from the iTunes store?

    Hello fellow Apple users!
    I am just wondering if the iPad 1 could play a 720p video downloaded from the iTunes store.
    I'd love to watch a movie in HD but I don't wanna waste money on something I can't consume.
    Thanks a lot!

    1. Double-click the Home button to see all Inactive Apps in Task Bar
    2. Hold the Apps down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close App
    4. Tap center of screen to return to Home Screen
    5. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider

  • Canon camera video download problems

    I have a canon S2 IS and have no problems with photo downloading to Iphoto5. The videos I shoot with the camera are a different story. some videos download and others never make it into Iphoto. I think it depends on the format I shot them in. The import label keeps going and going without anything happening. Any thoughts?
    Jeff

    Yesterday I used my Canon camera as a video camera. (Not by choice, but it was better than nothing.) I spent quite a while uploading video clips from my SD cards today. Yes, a 2-minute clip can take more than 3 minutes to upload. Here are some tips:
    Use a card reader. You do not want to rely on the camera's batteries during this process. I used my all-in-one printer as a card reader.
    Use Image Capture. Click "Upload Some." View the card's contents in list view, because it will show you the size in MB of each video clip. This gives you a relative idea of how long the upload may take.
    Upload only one video at a time.
    Ignore Image Capture's blue progress bar. It seems to go from zero to completely blue, with no in between. It does not indicate any movement or change.
    Use the Activity Monitor to see the Available RAM pie piece slowly shrink during the uploading. This shows you that something really is happening. You can also watch for the light on the card reader - if it blinks then the card is being read. My Mac Mini made no sound during the uploading.
    Be patient. Eventually the Image Capture "Downloading" info will close and a Finder window will open with the new file showing. Ten minutes is not unreasonable. I even had an 8-minute video that was over 900MB, that uploaded successfully. I just had to wait long enough.
    Play each clip in QuickTime to check that it is all there. If the upload is incomplete the clip will go white. My 8-min clip seemed incomplete at first. It played about 3 minutes, then went white. I closed it. In the Finder I saw the thumbnail file appear. When I opened the clip again, it was there in its entirety.
    Ignore any .THM files that get uploaded. They are just the thumbnails created by the Canon. You can trash them.
    Once all the clips were uploaded to a folder, I imported them into iPhoto 6. It only took a few minutes to import the whole folder of 15 clips. I like having them in iPhoto because their duration is displayed over their thumbnails.
    I don't know if iPhoto 5 handles these longer clips as well. If it doesn't like them, you can always save them in your Movies folder. This will make them accessible from iMovie and iDVD.
    I used to be able to import video directly from my card reader into iPhoto 6, even with clips up to 3 minutes long, shot with the same camera I used yesterday. I went back to 1Gig cards (no more 2Gig cards), and the problem did not resolve. I suspect the QuickTime update(s) after 7.1.3 have somehow caused the trouble with video clips. It seems slower and fussier this year compared with last year.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does you tube prevent music video downloads?

    I have figured out that music companies do not want you tube users to download videos to their hard drives or jump drives. Well, I want to. All the other videos work fine. I am using Firefox 18.0 with video download helper, and every time I download a music video, it says zero bytes. Zero byte download files, zero byte music video file. So I found the workaround to this problem to be save vid dot com, where I can enter the url to the music video I want to download and save it to my disk. Why does Firefox not allow this. Why does you tube not allow this. Money must be involved. Like I said, there must be some stupid reason why they don't want us to download their music videos. What's their problem. I just want to watch the video when I am offline, and save vid has saved me from getting angry again.
    All the other videos that do not have major sponsors download just fine, and it's sad that we have to find workarounds to stupid problems. Save vid allows you to save the you tube video without loading a spybot plugin that changes your home page and peppers you with ads, I'm glad they have it. I hope to save someone else the trouble.

    Actually, it is keep vid dot come, not save vid that i used, but both are legit websites that allow you to download videos from anywhere without a lot of hassle or unsafe plugins. Sorry about any confusion.

  • Why can I not get a video downloader?? They dissappear and or don't show up after selecting them fromthe add on page??

  • Firefox updated, Video download helper no longer works, no error msg. I have uninstalled both Firefox and VDH, reinstalled, VDH still does not work, Why

    Video Download Helper does not work after most recent update. I have cleared cache and cookies, uninstalled both Firefox and the helper,that has not corrected.When Firefox does an update are the "vendors notified so they can see if their product needs changes in order to be compatible? This may sound like a stupid ?, but it makes sense tome. Telling me to download something else, in my eyes is not REALLY solving the problem.

    Don't uninstall 36. Just download and install 35 over top and you don't lose any data. I already did and everything works just fine. But I did remove VDH first.

  • Why the flash player don't work after installing the video downloader add-on?

    I've installed and uninstall the Firefox mobile app several times to try and fix this issue. Every time I add the video downloader add-on the flash player won't let me tap to play videos anymore. I've tried to completely enable the flash but still didn't work. I've used this add on for a few months and it worked fine up until the last Firefox update. Without the add-on the flash player works fine but after I've added the video downloader add-on I would have to uninstall and reinstall the mobile spot to get the flash to work again. I really love to use this add-on that's the advantage that Firefox mobile app has over other web browser. Please tell me how I can fix this issue. THANKS

    Hello FRYDAE
    Welcome to SuMo help Forum,
    Thankyou for reaching us here
    About your problem , have you tried to clear your privacy/browsing data? And see if flash works?
    And you can try to disable the add-on, if you don't want to use it . and enable it again if you want to download a video .
    Cheers!

    Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
    Yes that is correct.
    Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
    If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
    You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
    Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.

  • How to insert paid video download on my Dreamweaver website

    Hi All,
    I would like to sell my documentary videos and other merchandise through my website.  The site has been successfully published for several years, so publishing it is not the problem.  I need to know what I must do to enable people to download something from my site, but pay for it first.  I have looked at e-commerce extensions for Dreamweaver, and am willing to go that route, but I don't understand the process of inserting a downloadable file on the site.  Is the video file just inserted like a PDF file and linked through an html link?  If I connect with PayPal and have access to their payment source, can I somehow insert my video download on my site without letting people download it for free -- they would go to PayPal and pay and then return to my site for the download? I am working on a Mac Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and have Adobe CS3 Design Premium with Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks, etc. and I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMMER -- I only work at the basic level in Dreamweaver and know enough to publish my site. Is there a better solution to this problem like another e-commer site for video downloads?  ITunes doesn't handle independent videos.  Thanks to all who reply.  Small Town Gal

    PayLoadz is a commercial solution.  They handle the digital downloads and process payments via PayPal, Google Checkout, etc... for a %.

    I had to do a complete uninstall and reinstall of my up-t0-date Firefox due to another problem (it would only open one window), but after reinstalling my extensions, their icons were not displaying.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled again, but the Personas Plus fox will not display in the status bar, and the Video Download Helper icon will not display in the Navigation toolbar, and is not available in the Customize Toolbars menu.
