ITunes movie purchase downloading twice

Hello all;
I just purchased a movie on iTunes. The first time I clicked BUY, the system told me that it could not read my Apple account and to try a few minutes later. So I tried a little later but I clicked the BUY button again!
Is this why the movie is downloading twice? One HD version and one standard version?
Does this mean I will be charged twice? If so, will I get a refund?
Thanks for any help or advice you can offer.

I do not believe that Real Player Plus can burn any videos purchased from the iTunes Store to video DVD. RP Plus can burn non-protected videos from iTunes, but not the copy-protected files from the iTunes Store. If you have yourself successfully burned videos from the iTunes Store to a vide DVD (one that plays in a standard DVD player) with Real Player Plus, I'm sure many of us would be interested in such confirmation, as it would indicate that Real has hacked Apple's DRM in some way.

How can I stop or delete a movie purchase download that is stalled?

How an I stop a movie purchase download from iTunes that is stalled? I apparently do not have enough storage capacity...but it keeps trying to download.

Slide your finger across the videos' listing in your iPhone Videos App and tap the red "Delete" button that appears.

TS1424 I purchased a movie on itunes but am unable to play it. I get a window that says unable to view. First time I've tried an iTunes movie purchase. The movie is Pulp Fiction.

Purchased Pulp Fiction as my first ever iTunes movie purchase. Won't let me view movie, says not available... Frustrated. What am I doing wrong?

If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music...
Delete the Song(s) and re-download...

Icloud movie purchase download problem

Trying to download and watch an itunes movie I previously purchased on my iphone but it isn't showing in my itunes. It is only showing as an icloud option on my iphone but I don't have the space anymore to download and watch it there. How can I watch my movie on my laptop? Even better if I can dowload it as I have plenty of room on my laptop for this and rather it not have to stream on internet.

Hi amslyn23,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to download a past purchase on your computer but aren't seeing the option. This might happen if you're using more than one Apple ID or the file is already in your iTunes library. Take a look at the article linked below for more information and the steps for downloading past purchases.
Download past purchases
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
Download previous purchases on Mac or PC
iTunes 10.3 or later
You need iTunes 10.6 or later to download previously purchased movies and TV shows.
iTunes account in a country where iTunes in the Cloud is available
iTunes Store
Open iTunes and go to the iTunes Store.
Click Purchased in the Quick Links section.
Select the content type that you want to download (Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, or Books).
Select Not in My Library to view purchased content that isn't on your computer.
Find the item that you want to download. You can browse using the menu to the left. If you have more than 2,000 songs, you will see Recent Purchases instead of All Songs or Albums.
Click the Download icon next to the item you want to download.
If an item is already in your library, the Download icon won't appear.
Cheers!

How do I recover iTunes movie purchases deleted from my iPad 2?

My co-worker needed my iPad 2 for a road show ... he deleted iTunes purchased video (Disney Enchanted, and the CARS Bundle) ... I just purchased them 3 weeks ago ... I have HOME SHARING enabled, and can see the icons for these video files on my iTunes software on my desktop, but then iTunes says it "cannot find the files".
I thought it would be as easy as going to iTunes and just downloading the files again... iTunes warns me "you've already bought these -- do you want to buy it again?", and of course the answer is "NO, iTUNES, I JUST WANT TO DOWNLOAD THE FILES TO THE SAME DEVICE AGAIN" (but that isn't an option!).
What do I have to do to recover these files?
Don't tell me I have to purchase them again! That would be BULLSH*T (sorry, I'm annoyed and don't understand why this isn't easier. It should be OBVIOUS.)

This doesn't seem like it was fully disclosed -- or at least, very clearly -- by Apple. I mean, c'mon ... you think it works like anything else
I ordered them on the iPad, and there was no pop-up notification that said "you should sync it (with the cable) to your PC" ... I have my order number and everything.
I mean, its the SAME DEVICE -- same identical iPad 2, same device serial number, same Apple ID ... I get that the movie studios don't want to see any piracy, and I support that (which is why I'm using Apple iTunes!) ... but what the heck is this "they're deleted off the device .. their gone!".
That seems very anti-consumer and I'm stunned that Apple hasn't taken a harder line about it, in the customer's interest. What if my iPad had been stolen? I mean, not my fault -- but the movies I purchased (digital media) aren't replaceable? I cry B-S.
(I appreciate your earlier response and really am not venting at you, but I take it Apple's Indian CSR is going to give me some scripted B-S response that won't be any different).

Itunes movie purchases

i have a question about movies purchased in itunes. is there a limit to the number of devices those movies can be loaded on? i had heard rumor that movies can only be loaded onto 5 devices at a time. i have more than 5 ios devices and would like to be able to have some of those movies on all my devices. also, do those movies purchased in itunes have chapters and movie info included with them?

You only get one download of a movie. You would have to sync it to other devices.
"You shall not be entitled to burn video iTunes Products "
") You shall be authorized to use iTunes Products on five iTunes-authorized devices at any time, except for Content Rentals (see below)."

Converting high def iTunes movie purchases to standard def

I appologize if this question has been asked, and answered before.
My question is, if I purchase a high definition movie from iTunes, is there a way to convert it to standard definition so I can sync it to any iPad (1,2 or 3), so it doesn't eat up so much of the valuable, and limited space on the iPads? Since high definition movies are easily twice to three times the size of standard definition movies. I don't want to have to purchase both the high definition and standard definition of the same movie.

It seems it isn't possible with iTunes' built-in "Create X or X version" as they're copy protected.
That is, the only solution seems to be getting more external storage like that of Seagate GoFlex Satellite ( http://www.seagate.com/external-hard-drives/portable-hard-drives/wireless/goflex -satellite/ ). It can even be "hacked" (see http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/wordpress/welcome/ ) to make it even more versatile.

Problem in using 2 IDs for iTunes music purchase downloads and using iTunes Match for 1 ID

Dear support managers,
We are using 1 macbook pro and 2 apple ID for purchasing iTunes music together (Me and my wife).
Actually, I have bought 1 year service of iTunes match on my apple ID and have been using well the service after download the purchased musics under the apple ID I am using.
But once my wife associated the macbook pro with her apple ID to download the musics she purchased,
I have not been able to use the iTunes Match service I have subscribed already.
The message said
"This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can use iTunes Match on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 90 days"
I can neither purchase another computer for solving this situation nor want to purchase another iTunes Match service on my wife's apple ID.
Please help me out to solve this issue.
Thanks and best regards,

Hi,
You can only use one Apple ID with iTunes match. Purchasing another match subscription using wife's Apple ID is not a solution. I can only suggest that you use your ID for match and all iTunes music purchases.

HT204370 Can I watch iTunes movies purchased on my MacBook on my iPhone 4s?

I connected my phone to my laptop and synced the movies from my itunes on my MacBook to my iPhone 4s but i can't seem to find them on the phone. Is it possible to watch movies purchased through my Mac on my phone?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Yes you can play them on your phone, you will find them in the 'video' app.

ITunes movie purchase to DVD? or stream to Xbox?

I was wondering if iTunes supported burning a movie purchase to DVD? If it doesn't how well does streaming it to an XBox work with Windows Media player? I assume Xbox has the codec like it does for iTunes music?
I dont have any movie purchases currently so I cant test it and if these methods dont work or work well I am just going to buy the DVD. Was just hoping to get an HD version digitally to work with my setup.

I do not believe that Real Player Plus can burn any videos purchased from the iTunes Store to video DVD. RP Plus can burn non-protected videos from iTunes, but not the copy-protected files from the iTunes Store.

ITunes movie purchase on multiple devices?

I did a quick search and did not find what I was looking for.
I'm thinking about purchasing movies from iTunes and before I do, I was wondering what the policy was for transferring the movies to multiple devices? Can I transfer them to my iPhone and my iPod nano?
I know for rentals it is only 1 device at a time. Is movie purchase the same? Thanks.

Purchase is different. You can have the purchased movie on any of your (up to 5) authorized computers and any of your compatible iPods/iPhones. I often have movies or television shows synced to both my Touch and my 3rd gen Nano as I tend to have one with me at certain times and the other at other times.
