Is the season pass for LOST worth it - writers strike?????????????????
hi guys. i purchased the season pass for desperate housewifes and was stunned after i am now left with 10 of the usual 24 episodes....who knows whats coming
i am now considering purchasing the season pass for lost, however I am not sure how many episodes will air...
does anyone know when LOST is running out of material or are they pretty much not affected by it. i want to know before purchasing another season pass....thanks
Lost season 4 is listed as by episode only at this point, right?
I haven't purchased a season pass since the strike started, but if I paid for a season and ended up paying more for a season pass than I would have paid purchasing the episodes individually, then I would contact iTunes support or at least send feedback.
The last time I purchased a season pass that fell short in episodes I received an email from Apple that gave me credit for videos from the iTunes store without even dealing with the feedback system or customer service.
Did you contact Apple regarding the season pass for Desperate Housewives Season 4? That's what? Around 6 or 7 episodes that you overpaid for.
If you aren't satisfied with your previous experience with a season pass during the strike period then contact Apple before spending more money on another pass, if one should become available.
Use http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/seasonpass/ as a starting point.
Good Luck,

When can I purchase the season pass for "The Secret Millionaire" Seasons 1 and 2??
I purchased the Season Pass for "The Secret Millionaire-season 3". I want to purchase the passes for seasons 1 and 2. Tell me why those first 2 seasons are not available for purchase??
Is ABC not giving you the rights to buy those seasons??
I see every TV show has multiple seasons. This not right.
I am sure that there are more individuals like me who want to watch quality TV shows.
BrianWe are all just fellow users here and have no more idea than you do why any given item is not available. It's almost certainly an issue of rights, since the iTunes Store can sell only what they can license, but why ABC cannot or will not grant the rights is something no one here will know.

When is Apple going to fix the season pass for tv shows (The Walking Dead Season 2 for me)?
Apple do you ever plan on fixing the season pass system?
I can not download The Walking Dead episode three. This isn't the first show this has happened to me.
It's frustrating since one would think you would work extra hard to make sure your season pass holders are happy. Afterall we pay for a whole season up front as compared to your other customers and the savings we get from buying a season pass are minimal. It's not like we are paying half off the season price.
A little consideration in regards to those of us paying up front would be appreciated.Feedback falls on deaf ears, it would seem, given I know that many of us have used that avenue. And no, I haven't noticed the other 90+ missing features, as I am unable to use the program due to it not being compatible with Endnote. And yes, at present I am using Pages 09 whilst waiting for a fix.
I don't at all mean to diminish the importance of anyone elses frustration and complaint about a feature that has gone or no longer works. This one is mine . And for me and a large number of users it makes the program unusable. Endnote is a program used by many universities and other institutions and relied on by many staff and students worldwide. I just think that when an issue means you can no longer use the software, I would have hoped for some sort of indication from Apple that there will be a fix. But perhaps the features you mention also make the program unusable?
Anyway, maybe I'll give a review a go...... -
Already purchased season pass for "The Flash" unavailable to download.
Recently purchased the season pass for "The Flash". Episode 1, the trailer and the "On the Set" for episode two have all automatically downloaded to my desktop. Wondered why episode two didn't download as well, so I went to the iTunes store and see a price tagged slapped over episode two, as if I haven't purchased the season pass. Anyone know whats up with this?

Will my Season Pass (for TV show) continue to download even when I travel to another country?
In a few weeks, I'll be traveling and living in China for a year.... Of course this means I'll be missing the excellent Fall lineup of TV shows, but iTunes would theoretically help me with that.
So my question is that if I download the season passes for let's say "Scandal" and "Agents of Shield," would I be able to continue downloading them off the cloud while in China? Or would I have to wait until I get back in the US? I'm not sure how the cloud works in China specifically, so any help would be much appreciated.Hi,

If I already own an episode of a show, will the season pass be any cheaper because of it?
For example, if I own one episode of the new south park that I purchased for $2.99 and then decide I want the season pass for $37.99, wiil the pass then only cost $35.00? Is it subsidised
No.
You would have to pay full price. -

as you can see i presssed the button yet purchase historty says different what happened ? customer service not helpful so far and not grasping the problem i am complaining thinking i did not pay for season when obvisouly i pressed the button so what heck ?
Message was edited by: sabbagh33It's now nearing the end of April, and 'Almost Human' is not due for airing in the UK until Tues 6th May 2014, and not available for purchase until after the UK airing. I rather suspect you have your iTunes account set-up as 'US' where the season pass has been available, and you purchased it from there (as is displayed in your screenshot - 'TV-14' is the US channel). You cannot 'cheat' the system that way, and get early 'viewings' hoping to get away with it. You have nothing to complain about.
If you had purchased iTunes would have despatched you a recipt and that should be in your mail history.
I have well over 200 movies, about 300 TV episodes, and many thousands of music tracks on iTunes, the iTunes help desk - when I have needed them less than 5 times in about 8 years have been very helpful. They do not deserve to be 'rounded' upon with criticism like this.

Season Pass for The Walking Dead
I bought a Season Pass for the first season of The Walking Dead. Episode 103 "Tell it to the Frogs" (the third episode) aired on Sunday, November 14, 2010 at 9:00pm Central Time. It became available on iTunes at 2:01 am on the same day. I still haven't received my e-mail telling me that the new content is available.
I was concerned and I emailed support. This is the answer I received:
"Dear Steven,
Thank you for pre-ordering The Walking Dead. I know that you're anxious to receive this item. Customer interest in this item far outwieghed Apple's projections.'
Steven, the episode 103 is not under season pass. You have to purchase the item individually.
Thank you for your understanding and being iTuens customer. Apple would like to continue business with you. Have a great day!
Sincerely,
Subham
iTunes Store Customer Support."
Now, when I bought the season pass I knew it was only for 6 episode, because I knew that is all that AMC ordered for the first season. I also read in the Season Pass that it was for "all episodes of Season 1 "The Walking Dead" and I enjoy the Inside The Walking Dead extras that have been coming with it.
As a long-time Apple customer, I would like to show you, Apple, how I translate this e-mail:
'Thank you for pre-ordering The Walking Dead. I know that you're anxious to receive this item. Customer interest in this item far outwieghed Apple's projections.'
“We’ve realized we probable missed out on a lot of money.”
‘Steven, the episode 103 is not under season pass. You have to purchase the item individually.’
“We’re pretending it is not actually episode 3 of season one so we can recover some of that money we missed out on.”
The thing that drives me insane about this is that the Inside The Walking Dead: “Tell it to the Frogs” content is also available and says very clearly beside it in the store “Season Only” and I haven’t received that content either.
What gives Apple? They’ve already renewed it for a second season. Yes offering season one for $15.99, you probably missed out on some cash. Take your hits, and charge us $25.99 for season two. Don’t yank content we’ve already paid for from us and claim “it doesn’t count.”
Why can't the people who have purchased the season pass have their content?
Message was edited by: StevenHaynes1981I would write the iTunes Store back and quote the following text from the Walking Dead season page:
"This Season Pass includes all current and future episodes of The Walking Dead, Season One"
Point out that this text is verbatim from the iTunes Store, that nowhere on that page does is say the episode 103 is excluded, and that you therefore want Episode 103 and all other episodes at no extra charge as promised. Insist on a response from an iTunes Store manager if the functionaries keep repeating the same "not under season pass" excuse.
I would also take a screen shot of that page right now in case Apple rewords the text. That way you have proof of the text as currently written.
Good luck.
P.S. We're all just your fellow users here. You will not get an official reply from any Apple employee, particularly anyone from the iTunes Store, in these forums.

Why cannot I download an episode after I purchase the Complete Season Pass for a TV show?
The iTunes on my iPhone won't allow me to purchase Complete Season Pass for a TV show. After I click the Buy Season Pass button, I got an alert dialog saying, "Cannot Download: There is not enough available storage to download 'Supernatural, Season 7'. You can manage your storage in settings."
My iPhone has 12.4 GB available in the storage, and my iCloud has 24 GB out of 25 GB available. I don't quite understand what is actually the issue. Why is the iTunes not allowing me to purchase the Complete Season Pass? Is it because I don't have enough storage available on my iPhone to download all episodes of the TV show? If so, why can't I just buy the pass then download a particular episode I want without having to download them all?
Can you help me figure out what the issue is?
Here's a screen shot from my iPhone:There is no accessible storage so that is why it needs to reload. The time it take is dependent on your network. Not sure why it is freezing this time but you may want to try a reboot (hold the menu and down arrow for a few seconds until the light starts flashing and then release)

I'm having trouble buying a season pass for The Americans. I have purchased passes to Justified for the past 4 years with no problem. Can't figure out why this purchase won't work.

I bought a season pass for a TV series on my MAC. It shows up on my Apple TV but isI not loaded. I had to download on my MAC the wait again to download on the Apple TV. Is this really how it is done? It is very time consuming. What am I doing wrong?
If you downloaded it to your Mac you don't watch it on your ATV unless you are using home sharing. Otherwise, you can stream it from your ATV directly from the store... which means you somewhat download it twice.

I cannot download my previous episodes of Bones. I purchased a season pass for the 9th season. I had to reset my iTunes library, and now I can't redownload the episodes. It gives me a a price for the previous episodes. And on the left corner where there is usually a price on Season pass. It says purchased, but I still have to pay $2.99 for the previous episodes. Please help! Thank you!!
Have you failed to maintain a backup copy?

Hi,
I bought a season pass for eight episodes of the tv show World's Toughest Trucker. Discovery cancelled the show after four episodes. My purchase was made after the show had been cancelled but I didn't know that at the time. The missing four episodes do exist, as the show was produced and shown in the UK. Help.Considering the hundreds of people that use this forum and likely bought a season today alone it really isn't an unanswerable question. However I'll take the lack of an answer as ineptitude rather than ignorance.
