ITunes in Europe and TV-shows

I read in the business magazines that ABC is making lots of money from allowing people to download episoed of Lost. But this feature to dl TV-shows does not seem to be available for accounts with billing address in some European countries.
Is this the case or am I doing something wrong???

If your account is Brazialian you can only purchase from that store. It does not matter what part of the world you are currently in, your account is tied to the country in which your account was created and to your billing address which would be your home country. You can't change the store from which you purchase in iTunes.

I'm trying to get itunes up and running on new computer. I have lots of music I've purchased from Itunes...and they show in my account. But only some of them have the cloud next to them. The rest say "downloaded" and it won't let me download them again.

I believe that all audiobooks are supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them requiring the one-time only download. This is the link for contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

What audio format encoded into iTunes HD Movies and TV shows?

What audio format encoded into iTunes HD Movies and TV shows, AC3, 5.1 DolbyDigital? Its been a long long while since I rented an HD movie on ATV since netflix came around with streaming and BD. Now they have rentals and purchases. Anyone know if the purchases play with 5.1 or better audio?

I think if you pull up the movie in the iTunes store it should tell you. For example, I pulled up the Star Trek movie that came out a few months ago, and it reports "Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound". Clearly you need to make sure that your hardware supports whatever sound configuration the movie employs.

ITunes 7.1 and TV Show sort order...

Is there noway to undo the upgrade from iTunes 7.1 to iTunes 7.02 until they solved this annoying iPod TV show problem? Nothing was wrong with the list on that version. Unbelievable they changed something like this!

I agree, my TV Shows are now all out of order. iTunes used to organize them by Season Number then Episode Number, now it ignores those fields and organizes only by Episode ID. I hope this gets fixed quickly, because I really don't want to delete the tags on a few hundred shows.

ITunes streaming movies and tv shows via iPad - possible?

I really like to watch tv shows and movies on my iPad the problem is that I have to download them first :/ anyone may know if it is possible to stream tv shows and movies via iPad through iTunes without downloading like Apple TV..

I am also experiencing intermittent streaming from the cloud with 1080p content. My internet package is pretty decent with 25MB and when I download a show on iTunes, it shows a download speed of 22MB so all is well with my connection to apple. The only way I can stream content without any interruptions is to change the settings on the AppleTV3 to 720p.
I called my ISP and applied for a 50MB package and see it it helps.

Streaming Movies and TV Shows from iTunes is very, very slow since recent update

I have an Apple TV 2nd generation and since I updated it to the latest firmware available, that came out last week with the announcement of a new Apple TV, streaming content from iTunes servers, Movies and TV Shows, has become a nightmare. I don't think it is due to the firmaware update as I think it is due to the lack of capacity of the servers. As recent as last week everything worked fine. I would just press play and the TV Show would start almost immediatly and the streaming was fast enough that all the TV Show, past the point I was watching, was downloaded, without any delay or having to stop to rebuffer. The first time I noticed it was on monday this week and since then I have been testing streaming directly from iTunes every now and then and it never came back to work the way it did. I know the problem isn't my network. I have a 20 Mbits connection and download content at 2 Mbytes/sec on avarage.
And I don't know if it has something to do with the fact that Apple has made available content in 1080p, and that maybe it is stressing its servers even more. What I do know is that the way it is working right now undermine the entire concept of what Apple TV should be like. It has to work just the way it did when Eddy Cue gave a demonstration of the new Apple TV on Wednesday, the content played authenticated immediatly and started playing, without long time buffering. "People are going to love streaming movies and TV shows in 1080p with the new Apple TV", said Philip Schiller. But I can't even stream 720p content.

I am also experiencing intermittent streaming from the cloud with 1080p content. My internet package is pretty decent with 25MB and when I download a show on iTunes, it shows a download speed of 22MB so all is well with my connection to apple. The only way I can stream content without any interruptions is to change the settings on the AppleTV3 to 720p.

Why does it take so long to download movies and tv shows from itunes

I can download songs pretty quickly from itunes, but movies and tv shows take anywhere from 12-24 hours. Is there anything I can do to speed this up?

If you are downloading at work more than likely your bandwith is being throttled by your company. If your using a Mac, download a little utility called "MenuMeter" It runs in the menu bar and will display your connection speed.If your on a windows machine similar utilities are available as well. Once you find out what your speed is.it'll be much easier to trouble shoot!

Certain movies and TV shows won't sync with my iPad 2

I a unable to sync certain Movies and TV Shows from iTunes to my iPad 2.
Some iTunes Digital Copies and TV Shows downloaded from iTunes sync perfectly well.
However, when I attempt to sync my iTunes Digital Copy of Rise of the Planet of the Apes, or the two TV shows given away in the latest 12 Days of Christmas promotion, I get the message "XXX was not copied to the iPad because you are not authorized for it on this computer."
They all play fine on my iMac. Both the iPad and the iMac are signed in with the same iTunes account.
I have tried deauthorizing and re-authorizing my iMac, without success. The same message appears when I try to manually manage music and videos.
Any ideas why these files in particular will not sync? Many Thanks.

Check out this thread...basically, changing the extension from .m4v to .mp4 allowed me to move a TV Show in iTunes onto my iphone4.

Cant use itunes credit even though its showing in account?

Hi there,
I loaded on a $20 itunes credit today and its showing on my account as a credit but when I go to buy a song its still asking for my credit card details? There is absolutey no option to use existing credit?? Any help appreciated!!
Thanks

Then something did not transfer correctly.
What exactly did you copy? Was it the ENTIRE iTunes folder? If not... start over and copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder.

ITunes somehow thinks that 2 computers equals 5 and I can't authorize my movies and TV shows because of it. What should I do?

I tried authorizing movies and TV shows on my new iMac that I have authorized on one or two computers/devices total, but when I click to authorize, it says that they've already been authorized on 5 computers. It's quite a bother, and I can't even find how to contact Apple directly to be able to complain to them about their problem. What should I do?

It is possible to have mistakenly authorized a computer more than once. To fix that:
Open iTunes.
From the Store menu, choose "Deauthorize This Computer…"
Enter your account name and password.
Click OK. A message appears reading "This computer has been successfully deauthorized."
Click OK.
Repeat steps 2 through 5 above. If you see the same message reading: "This computer has been successfully deauthorized," then your computer was using multiple authorizations.
Repeat steps 2 through 5 above until you see a message reading "This computer was not authorized. To authorize this computer, play a song or video you have purchased using this account."
If that does not fix it for you, you can "deauthorize all" your computers. This will solve your problem, but you may only do this once per year.
Open iTunes on a computer
From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

Purchased movies and tv shows won't show up in iTunes on my Macbook Air

So, I have recently begun purchasing movies and TV shows through iTunes in an attempt to further enrich my Apple ecosystem (and to have awesome movies to watch on a 5.5" screen ). I have had mixed experiences with this transition and am still having issues. For example, my Apple TV worked fine with all my purchases instantly -- no problem there. My Mac Mini takes a bit but it sorts itself out in no time. My iPhone 6 Plus, however, has failed at showing new purchases in the cloud in the videos app (for example, I purchased Doctor Who Series 8 and wanted to watch an episode the other day but was disappointed to find out that it wasn't available in the cloud). My Macbook Air though.. absolutely no movies or tv shows show up in iTunes. I can download them from the purchased section of the iTunes store, but at 2-3 GBs an episode, and the limited memory of a Macbook, I have only condoned a desire to stream them through iCloud.
Yet I can't figure it out. Why aren't my shows and movies showing up at all in iTunes? All of my iTunes match songs show up just fine. I have checked and nothing is hidden, so I am literally stumped.
If anyone could help me understand why, that would be great. And if anybody knows what is going on with my iPhone's video app, that would be awesome too.
Thanks in advance,
Dylan

Oh alright -- I manage to resolve my own stupidity quite abruptly, actually.
Shortly after posting this, I annoying took another gander at iTunes Store settings. To my own idiocy, I must have unchecked "Show iTunes purchases in the cloud" at some point. In my defense, though, the availability of songs in iCloud threw me off quite a lot.
Ha ha -- anyways, if anyone else is having the same problem, check there.

I put songs onto my IPhone 4, and they show up under the "On This Phone" section in itunes, but when I go to play the songs on my phone, they aren't there. How can I fix this?

When you look at your iPhone, are you looking in the Music app or in the iTunes app? Be sure you are looking in the Music app, and look in the Songs category. If your songs are not here, you may want to try syncing your information again through iTunes. To do this, uncheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync in the bottom right corner of iTunes, and then recheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync again.
I hope this helps!

My iPod touch won't show up in iTunes, but charges and shows up on different computers.

My iPod touch 5th gen last was synced with my iMac a couple weeks ago. Now when I plug it into iTunes, it won't show up. It's done this before and I've fixed it by updating iTunes, restarting the iPod/computer etc, but it seems I've tried everything. I've connected it to different USB ports, and it charges in all of them but doesn't show up. When I plug it in, Dropbox recognizes it and can get the pictures off, but iTunes won't work. I tried connecting the iPod to a different computer, and it showed up in iTunes just fine. I have the latest version of iTunes. I didn't restore my iPod from the other computer because if I can't get it to re-sync with this computer I'd rather not lose all my data. It seems I need to reinstall iTunes, but I don't know how- will it delete all my music that I already have on there?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I had this issue, I fixed it by going to:
Start > Control Panel > Devices and Printers
Then find the iPod, and Right Click > Properties > Hardware > Properties > Driver > Update Driver > Update Automatically
The driver had not been automatically installed, and windows found and installed the driver files for me. Took ~90 seconds, and then the iPod began it's sync process almost immediately after. Hope this helps anyone with the same issue! I'd try this before re-installing iTunes.

IPod frozen and not showing up in iTunes, I've tried everything

My iPod Nano (2nd generation) has "Do not disconnect" on the screen whether or not it is connected to the computer, and it will not show up in iTunes, and I do not think that it is showing up in "My Computer." I think I have tried everything that the support section suggested, but my iPod still says "Do not disconnect" on the screen and iTunes freezes up every time I try to restore it.
What happened:
I went to the iTunes store and bought an album, so then I plugged in my iPod to get those songs on my iPod. If it matters, I'm using my mom's laptop for iTunes because my computer does not have XP, and I plug the iPod into the USB slot. My iPod's screen showed the words "Do not disconnect" and I waited for the iPod to show up on iTunes and for it to say updating or whatever it does when it puts new songs on it. Well the iPod never showed up, and iTunes had frozen. I did the good old "ctrl + atl + delete" and iTunes was not responding so I clicked "End task." Then I went down to click on iTunes again and it would not come up. I tried again, and nothing. I clicked on iTunes in the Start menu and it wouldn't come up. So then I decided to restart the computer so that I could get iTunes to work. The computer turned off, but would not turn on. It showed the same screen for about 10 min and nothing was happening. I was afraid to disconnect the iPod since it still said "Do not disconnect" so it was still plugged in. I then switched off the power on the laptop, and tried to turn it back on. It was stuck on the same screen again, and I waited for about 10 min, and I finally disconnected the iPod and the computer promptly started up. The iPod still said "Do not disconnect," and pushing buttons did nothing. I pulled up iTunes and plugged my iPod back in, but iTunes did not show the iPod on the side like it should. So I closed it and tried again, and after about 20 tries of restarting the computer, unplugging and plugging the iPod, and reopening iTunes, I eventually got the iPod to show and it asked to restore it, so I clicked ok. As it was restoring the bar was moving back and forth and then it just stopped, and I moved the mouse and realized that iTunes had frozen again. I was forced to "End task" and I had to restart the computer. I've gone through this cycle about 20 times, and about every 15 min I will get the iPod to show up on iTunes (but it does not recognize the iPod's name or the type of iPod) and no matter what I try to do next iTunes freezes up and I have to restart the computer. Sorry for the long read, I just didn't want to leave out any detail. I've been trying to get it to work for a few hours and I'm getting very frustrated, any help would be greatly appreciated.

The select button + menu button thing worked, I just realized that when I was trying it before the hold was still on (since I was "toggling it"). I feel stupid...
