ITunes Movies Section Won't Open

When I click on Movies, so I can view what all I have in the library, the button merely gets pressed down, then stays on Music or whatever menu I happen to be on already.  If I click View, Movies, the same thing happens.  I can play all the movies that are there on an Apple TV on the network, it simply won't show them to me in the library.  Any thoughts?

  • ITunes 11.3 won't open

    iTunes 11.3 won't open on 13" Mac Macbook Pro mid 2012  OS X 0.8.2

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Safari, iMail, iTunes, and Dashboard won't open

    A week ago, Safari, iMail, iTunes, and Dashboard won't open but other applications will, like Mozilla, iPhoto, Word, Excel, etc. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can get Safari and the other programs to open? Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hi, I'm replying to myself to add more information on my case. I wasted half my day yesterday trying to fix this, looking into forums and trying to talk to people about it and there it absolutely no answer. Yesterday I installed the programs necessary to sync my phone in my wife's macbook and nothing bad happened. So I'm guessing it isn't about the phone plugins I installed. I've tried to download combo updates but they crash as soon as I try to install them - I even tried to install a 10.4.10 update.
    This is the error message I get:

    I put part of in on google to check if there was anybody discussing anything related and someone suggested - bizarrely enough - updating adobe reader. I did it just in case and, of course, it didn't work. I repaired permissions a million times already, I rebooted in safe mode, I scaned the computer with apple jack, I verified the disk with diskutility - which showed nothing. I tried downloading an anti-virus (ClamXav), but I couldn't open it also, I trashed my prefs, I deleted all internet plugins, but still.... nothing. I'm about to quit and take it to the very expensive - yet reliable - authorized tech support apple has in Rio. Any ideas, anyone?

  • ITunes 10.7 won't open some Libraries

    I just noticed that iTunes (10.7) won't open some of my libraries. I have 5 that I use for various purposes. The main one with all my music is now grayed out. Only 2 out of the 5 will load, and they are not the most important ones, so I am kind of stuck.
    A few weeks ago I upgraded from Leopard 10.5 to Mountain Lion 10.8, then got an iPhone 5, but iTunes worked for a while after the upgrade and I put some songs on the iPhone.
    I just got the fix for iPhoto 4.9 which was causing it's own problems, and now iTunes isn't working. (Actually it wasn't working when iPhoto had problems too.)
    So what can I do to fix this? Delete my library files and start over just when I had it all set up for the iPhone? And will it happen again?

    A valid iTunes library has a file called library.itl  The .xml file is a copy in a different format put there by iTunes so other programs can read the library, but itunes itself uses the .itl file.  So in essence the folders with no .itl have no library.  You can create a blank library by holding down the option key while starting iTunes.  Now import the .xml file from one of those orphan libraries.

    Are you trying to transfer the GarageBand projects or the rendered audio files? What version of GarageBand do you have on your iPhone?
    I do not think you can share your GarageBand projects from your iPhone to GarageBand on your Mac, unless you have iCloud, afaik, only the audio files.
    How did you transfer the song?
    To share from an IOS device the Projects or audio files, see:  Share GarageBand songs

  • Safari, Mail, iTunes and Skype won't open

    Hi there Apple-Support-Team,
    a few days ago I did an update of Safari, suggested automatically by Apple, but wasn't sure if the update was successfull (I had to leave the house).
    Now all applications with internet connection (Safari, Mail, iTunes, Skype) won't open anymore. Not from the dock or the application folder. I checked my internet connection which seems to be working.
    I've seen quite some reports in this forum but I am not sure if I'm having the same trouble as the other users. I get no error reports or anything else, the apps just don't open.
    Mac OS X version 10.4.11
    Safari 3.0.4
    Many thanks
    Mexximexx

    Welcome to the forums!
    Did you restart your Mac after the install?
    If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have) and it is misbehaving:
    N.B. Never delete Safari, never run it under Rosetta, don't use proxy settings, and don't change the application's name or move it from the top level of the Applications Folder to a sub-folder.
    (If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall. Alternatively you can download Safari directly:
    Safari 4.1.1 for Tiger can be downloaded here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1069
    Safari 5.0.1 for Leopard (and Snow Leopard) can be downloaded from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070
    Make sure you download the correct version for your system.
    Also, observe the recommended procedure for installing software: repair permissions and close all applications, install, then repair permissions again.)
    Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
    So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was not a beta and which was updated to v.3.1.2, and now Tiger uses Safari 4.1.1 and Leopard uses Safari 5.0.1, as does Snow Leopard albeit a different version. If these latest versions of Safari are not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
    (Trying to revert to a previous version of Safari can have repercussions, as previous versions of Safari used a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, but if you really want to do this post back for instructions on the safe way to do so.)
    Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-ons that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet, and the dreaded CT Toolbar. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for the latest version of Safari on your current operating system.
    You must also ensure that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates. These require a restart and a permission repair.
    To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
    Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
    • Hard Disk/Library/InputManagers
    • Home/Library/InputManagers
    especially prior to system updates and updates to Safari (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
    Lastly, the Safari updates require a restart of your Mac, and sometimes even a double restart is required.

  • ITunes 10.5 beta to iTunes 10.5 won't open iTune library "damaged .itl" PLEASE HELP

    I've been using iTunes 10.5 beta not sure which version on my MBP and i now installed iTunes 10.5 on my iMac but it won't open my iTune library. its giving me an error saying something like "damaged .itl" PLEASE HELP I'm in ****!!!!

    Pretty simple work around:
    1. locate com.apple.mail.plist in ~/Library/Preferences folder. Move to the desktop (you can replace it if this does not work).
    2. Restart Mail, and set up the account again.
    3. From the File menu, "Import Mail Boxes". These will be in a folder marked POP or IMAP, in ~/Library/Mail. You may need to do more than one import, depending on how many accounts you have.
    They will be in a folder called "Imported". You can now make new folders, and move emails, or just move entire folders.

  • ITunes 10.5 won't open. Quits unexpectedly

    OS Version:      Mac OS X 10.6.8
    I just installed iTunes 10.5 this morning and now iTunes, iPhoto, Google Chrome, Skype won't open.  They all quit unexpectedly.  I have repaired my disk and repaired permissions.  I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it.  I am stuck and need some other ideas!!  This has pretty much made my iMac comletely usless!!! 

    I agree on deleting or getting the junk out of \Roaming\Apple.... Just to be clearer, I meant to say "move AND delete" just to be sure you have a copy somewhere, even if only to compare to. In the end I spent far too long looking for a needle in haystack rather than just start over.
    I had trouble on 10/19 so I then looked to see what was modified then.
    There are some other prefs that may be in AppData\Local as well that you want to dump.
    Two years into Windows 7 I was going to do clean install anyway. Was hoping there would be a 2nd Preview of 8 though. 10.5 works fine on Windows 8 except for iPod service and AMS, and was unable even with clean system install to upgrade iPod to iOS 5 --- that was what I really really wanted to accomplish and figure out, and even with clean install was a "dead end."
    Now I'm beginning to list or learn that some of my apps and others don't work with iOS 5 or iTunes 10.5.
    If some one has the luxury of a 2nd copy or hard drive or both to have another install of Windows, always useful, and one way to test and find out what works and then migrate files.

  • HT204370 Trying to play my recently downloaded iTunes movie rentals. When opening I get the window "Cannot Open".  Others previously worked fine, internet connection is good, and payments went thru fine.  Please advise. Thx!

    iTunes movies won't play.  (Previously others worked fine.)  When I open the movies i get the window "Cannot Open".  Internet connection is fine, payment went thru fine.  Please advise...thx!

    Thankyou for the two replies.
    I have some good news but I still am concerned about why this happened?
    Using iTunes, I deleted then re-synced the video files that wouldn't play and now all of them play again.
    As I don't know why this problem occured, I am concerned about it happening again...it is NOT fun to have to delete and reload all of these vids, but, at least I know that there is some kind of "workaround"!
    If anyone has an idea of WHY this happened and, perhaps how to prevent it in the future, I would appreciate that input despite the fact that all my vids now play again.

  • Itunes and safari won't open

    My itunes stopped working after I came back from vacation. I tried uninstalling everything and updating to 10.1 but it won't open. When I click it, it shows up in the task manager for a moment and then disappears with no error messages. Quicktime works fine but when I downloaded and installed safari it won't open either.
    Then I created another user account and tried it there and it doesn't work. It also looks like the plugin for adobe acrobat has stopped working as well. I have to right click and save as to view pdfs. I tried disabling the bonjour service and restarting the computer but it still doesn't work.
    Any ideas? I have windows 7 x64 professional
    Thanks
