ITunes keeps trying to download rented movie

In the summer of '08 I rented Cloverfield off iTunes on my MacBook (running the latest version of Leopard). Since then iTunes will keep trying to download the movie and once it's finished downloaded it will send me an error message every 20 minutes. It doesn't charge me for the movie but the continuous error messages are getting annoying. How do I stop iTunes from doing this?

Have you tried deleting the iTunes Music\Download folder?

I have purchased an album on itunes through my iphone and downloaded it to my phone. But itunes keeps trying to download it all again which is slowing my 3G down

I pre-orderd the an album last week, and downloaded it when it became available on Monday morning.
However now itunes keeps trying to download the album again which is slowing my phone down and using too much 3G.
Can anyone help?

It may be an authentication error.

It may clear up after a while. You can write to Apple but I bet it clears up before you receive a reply.

Error (-50) when trying to download rented movie?

I am trying to download a movie that I have rented (it's about 80% downloaded so far) but then it stopped. When I click on it again to refresh the downloading, I get "There was a problem downloading (Movie Title). An Unknown error occurred (-50). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again."
The other day I rented a movie on the same network and it was fine. I'm not sure what this means or how to fix it.
Thanks.

Download Error (480) when trying to download rented movie

Hello all.
Managed to install the update.
Everything seems to be working fine.
Then decided to rent a movie, accepted the payment etc. but when I try to download I keep getting "Download Error (480)" and a notification to go to "Check Downloads" and try again. Have tried a number of times and keep getting the same result "ERROR" !
Is anybody elso suffering this problem ?
Could it be related to the store being very busy because ALL of you are trying to rent and download movies right now ???
Any feedback is welcome.

OK, so further to my earlier post.
After a number of times being in touch with customer support (email) I have still not resolved this download error problem.
One thing I have determined, the problem is definitely related to HD movies only. I am not having any problems downloading rented movies that are NOT HD.
Does anybody have the same problems with HD movies "Download error (480)" ???

I continually get a error = -19 in itunes when trying to download 2 movies. How do I fix it?

Whenever i try to download 2 movies I get a error message. The moves have been downloaded but when the computer is processing them I receive the error message each time telling me that the internet connection is the problem while other items download without a problem. Can anyone help?

I have the same problem with an album which I downloaded. I am using iTunes 11.0.1 and the Download dialogue box shows the album twice and when I try to re-start the error message appears.
Most annoyingly the album was downloaded successfully and I can listen to all the tracks.

ITunes keeps trying to download nonexistent file from Store, reports as "Corrupted"

iTunes Match mis-matched one of my songs. It turns out it's from an album no longer carried in the iTunes Store. Through Customer Service, I obtained a credit to re-purchase the song from a different album.
This was months ago. There hasn't been a problem - until now.
Out of nowhere, iTunes started attempting to re-download the original song. The progress bar refills several times, then a pop-up dialog states the file is corrupted, and I should "Check Available Downloads" to try again. The track has even reappeared in my iTunes Library, albeit grayed out and with a "!" next to it.
How do I convince iTunes and the iTunes Store that this is a non-existent track, and to stop trying to download it?

I am having this issue as well, same error number and everything. Only one song too, the songs purchased before and after it download correctly. You have to press the report problem link specifically next to the song after pressing the initial report problem on your purchase history page.
Not that Apple Support has done much for me yet, they claimed it was my ISP or something which is pure fabrication.

Why does itunes keep trying to download a video that i already downloaded everytime I buy something?

I have an episode of the Torchwood series downloaded, but haven't watched it yet. Lately, everytime I buy a song off of the iTunes store, when it starts downloading the song, it starts downloading the Torchwood video again. How can I stop it from trying to download the video?

Then you're doing something wrong, perhaps you need step-by-step instructions.
Re-read my post carefully. Follow the instructions, carefully - that is;
To leave the App on your phone
Connect your iPhone to your iTunes Library
Look on the Device/Apps pane (tab). In other words, in the left hand window of your iTunes, you will see Devices listed once you plug in your iPhone and under that list of devices will be your phone. Select that device (your phone).
On the Device panes, look at the top menu bar for the Apps. Select Apps.
On the Apps pane, you will see the tick-box Sync Apps and below it is a list of Apps in your iTunes Library. To the right is your iPhone and the Apps on the iPhone.
In the left section - the list of Apps in your iTunes Library - untick the App you wish to remove
Press the Sync button for these changes to take effect.
That's it. At the next Sync, that App will not be put back on your iPhone, because it still isn't ticked "on" in your iTunes Library.

ITunes keeps trying to download a HD movie I don't want.

My broadband provider (Qwest) has an issue with large files. I'm not able to download any single file that is larger than 2 GB, I've called them multiple times on this issue and they say yes, it's real and it's a problem. Any time I try and download something larger than that (an HD movie for example) it resets my connection, iTunes times out, and I have to reset everything (including rebooting my internet connection).
Knowing that I mistakenly purchased a couple of HD movis through the iTunes store. Now even though I can't actually download them, iTunes attempts to every time I open itunes, update iPhone apps, grab new podcasts, etc. How do I permanently delete these two downloads from my queue so it never attempts to download them again?
It cannot complete the download, and never will be able to, so I'm stuck with a froen connection everytime I do one of these things with iTunes. I can't find an option anywhere to delte permanently.

Try downloading movie on your computer (iTune).

ITunes keeps trying to download a second copy of movie

Hi,
I bought the Dark Knight trilogy the other day and downloaded all three movies no problem. Today, it started to download a second copy of Batman Begins. I stopped it and deleted it. A few hours later, it did it again. Anyone know what the issue is here?
Regards, Patrick

I have the same issue, with this and other WB movies. Either Apple or WB have some issues to sort out. If you go to WB site they will "mail it to you within 2 weeks". I'll see how that goes.

HT1414 I want to restore the iPad to factory settings. The IOS software on the iPad is up to date and I have limited space on my PC C Drive. Why does iTunes keep trying to download the iPad software again when it is already up to date?

The restore won't complete because there isn't enough space on the C Drive. I have placed a copy of the software update on the D drive, but don't know how to redirect iTunes to that folder to extract the software. I can't extend my C Drive

Assuming you have a iPad 1, I wqould do a manual update using these instructions:

Im trying to download a movie from itunes and it says i dont have enough memory. I can see that I have 13G in icloud but i dont know how to add the movie to that memory

Hi,
Im trying to download a movie from itunes to my ipad 2 but it says i dont have enough memory. I have 13G of space on icloud but cant figure out how to down load it to icloud. Can anyone advise please.

Hi back,
Icloud cannot be used to increase internal memory of ipads, otherwise nobody would buy more expensive 32, 64, 128 gigabyte versions. Hype with "movies in the cloud" is more of itunes store, keeping movies available for you in order to download on any device. That does not go against your storage in the cloud, though.
So if you go to your computer and you purchased movie ( not rented ) you can download and watch.
There is something else to pay attention to, your ipad (if I am not mistaken) is not capable to run HD movies, make sure you do buy Standard Definition, and they will take less space on ipad.

Might be security software, firewall or other software causing a time out resulting in Error (-50) > iTunes Store: "Error (-50)" when downloading purchased content
