ITunes HD TV Show, Plays Extremely Glitchy

I have just downloaded and episode of Lost (Season 2) onto my MacBook Pro. It is in HD, but I am sure that it should work. When I play the video, the sound is perfect, however the video displays with white, green, pink and many other colours in a sort of distorted manor. You cant even be sure that you are watching lost, let alone watch it. Any ideas?

Also make sure if your iPod software is up to date.

  • Itunes downloaded tv show plays on itunes, not on ipod. PLEASE HELP !

    I have downloaded TV programs from the ITunes store. They play in Itunes and appear in the listings on my Ipod. However, when I click on them to play them, the little Play symbol appears, the screen goes dark for about 10 seconds and then it returns to the list. All the latest software is on. This is a new Ipod. Everything else seems to work. Any thoughts? PLEASE HELP ME, i'm sort of hopeless at this...
    thanks !

    Also make sure if your iPod software is up to date.

    I have downloaded a movie from ITunes.  It shows up in my video app.  When I go to play it I get an error message: "The requested URL was not found on this server". When I checked back on iTunes, where you click to rent or buy a movie it says "Downloaded".  Any advice on what I can do in order to watch this movie that I rented a couple of weeks ago?

  • Is it possible to show play counts in Artists or Album view in iTunes 11?

    There are some beautiful new changes to iTunes 11, but also some things I really like have been taken away. One of them is being able to see my playcouts as I browse. Not just in the playlist or songs list view.
    Does anyone know if there is any way to show play counts in Artists or Album view in iTunes 11?

    typo... sorry
    I have 3 product codes that I want to report on - Mold, Repair, and Production.  For Mold and Repair, I want to print out only the top 1 job for each order.  For Production, I want to print all jobs.  I have GH1 to group by ProdCode.  GH2 groups by Orders.  Detail A section has a formula to suppress if ProdCode = Production.  Detail B suppresses if ProdCode is not Production.  I can get the suppresion to work but I don't know how to get the Top 1 to show when Detail A is shown.
    Obviously I'm new at Crystal Reports - about 3 weeks.
    Thanks for your help...

  • How do I show plays in Artist View in iTunes 11?

    I'm looking for a way to show plays in Artist View in iTunes 11. A dialog box pops up when going to View > View Options,  but nothing about changing what information can be diplayed.
    Anyone know anything about this?
    Thanks!

    I do not believe you can. If you want to see plays you need to use The songs View. If you turn on the column browser you can select by Album and in the grid below you should see count. If not then View > View Options and select Plays from the Stats section.

    Which version of iTunes are you using?
    What is your iPod firmware number as shown in the iTunes summary page?
    Is there any error message when you try to sync the vidoes?
    Have a nice day!

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps youshouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

    Hello CTGame,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there’s a grayed out song in your iTunes library that can’t be played or downloaded again like other past purchases. Try taking a look at the article linked below and verify the computer is authorized to play that content.
    How to troubleshoot iTunes Match - Apple Support
    Songs appear to be missing
    Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Try authorizing your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To determine what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized for to play a specific song:
    Locate and select the song in your iTunes library.
    Choose File > Get Info.
    In the Summary tab, locate the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down.
    Click OK.
    Choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
    Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
    Choose Store > Update iTunes Match.
    So long,
    -Jason

  • I can't play my itunes music it shows !this simbol and says the file couln't be find

    i can't play my itunes music it shows me ! this sinbol and says the file couln't be find

    This happens if the files are no longer where iTunes expects to find them. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the files, or that the drive they live on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.
    If the files are nowhere to be found on your computer, but exist on a device, see  Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    While deleting & reimporting works when the media can be found the process will delete user playlists, ratings, play counts, date added information and any other metadata not stored in tags.

  • Apple TV and my MacBook Pro. TV shows I bought from iTunes only play for 1:50 min on Apple TV. However, the same shows play full length from my iPad. What's the cause?

    The TV series that I purchased from iTunes and have on my MacBook Pro will play on Apple TV for a short 2 minutes and then everything ends. However, the same shows play full length on Apple TV if I use my iPan. Does anyone know the cause of this?

    Hi mdr1976,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You can use iTunes Match to access your entire iTunes library on your computer and iOS devices.
    You can access your iTunes library on your Apple TV using Home Sharing, which is why it only works when your MacBook is turned on.
    See these articles for more information about Home Sharing:

    Plug the Apple TV into your computer and do a restore if it doesn't happen automatically.

  • Tv shows play in iTunes but not on iPod.

    iPod and PowerBook software all up to date. Tv shows play fine in iTunes. When I try to play them on the iPod, the screen goes dark and a "play button" sysmbol appears (a triangle pointing to the right, in the upper left corner). Nothing happens and it quits trying after a few moment.
    I emailed support and heard nothing back. These are my first iTunes store purchases and I'm not impressed. Bought a whole season of a show and all the episodes do this.
    Grr.

  • Itunes purchased tv show will not play on atv

    I recently purchased my ATV and have synced my itunes. I downloaded season 5 of "The Shield" from the itunes store. The shows play on my computer and show up under "My TV Shows" but no picture. There is a bar at the bottom of the black screen showing run time and a gear turning. Sometimes it shows the run time count going forward but, other times it stays at zero. I also intermittently get a message that says "There are no tv shows on your apple tv" or if the show is there it will say something like "cannot play..format not recognized". I am very frustrated and ready to send this thing back.
    Any help would be welcome - while I still have hair

    (1) Like you I can stream video content acquired outside of iTunes to my Apple TV, but I can't appear to play any video purchased on iTunes. On the other hand, music I've purchased plays fine and since my music collection no longer includes protected files I'm of the opinion that this is most likely a DRM issue.
    I don't know whether this issue appeared after iTunes 10.5 or the Apple TV 4.4.2 update.
    It is of some importance to me that Apple resolves this quickly.
    (2) I am not experiencing any issues with the bottom right hand output selection. Have you tried disconnecting from your network, starting something and then reconnecting to see if that resolves the issue?
