Just bought Star Trek Into Darkness & won't play on my 1st gen Apple TV

I just bought and downloaded Star Trek Into Darkness.  Now it won't sync to my 1st generation Apple TV.  I went into my Apple TV settings in iTunes and chose Into Darkness to sync.  I then click Apply and Sync, but it doesn't sync.  It doesn't give me the error triangle saying it won't sync.  But it also doesn't give any status bar showing it is syncing.
I tried to select Into Darkness in iTunes and create an Apple TV version, but that option is grayed out.  What's going on?  Why can't I get this movie onto my Apple TV?

I'm having the same problem. If Apple fixes it, how do we find out it's been fixed?
Actually, is the root of the problem that the 1st generation Apple TV doesn't run a recent enough version of OS X?
This link may suggest so:

IIRC, the 1st generation Apple TV is running 10.4.x, and the link indicates OSX 10.5 is needed?

  • Star trek into darkness won't download.

    It gets to 110mb and then goes backwards, itunes says the file is corrupt. Ive tried deleting and retrying. Is this itunes problem or mine?

    When the SD version of the film was released there was a major problem as described in the opening posts.  We were all refunded and advised to download again several days later.  Those who bought the HD version had no problem.
    It did take Apple a fair time to realise there was a problem, despite the number of people reporting the problem at the time - they kept removing our download queue so we could start again, reach the same point and same problem.  It was a corrupt file on their server.
    (As it was I then bought the Blu Ray which came with a free HD download so I gained as I would have re-bought the SD version).

  • Downloaded Star Trek into Darkness but won't copy to iPod

    I downloaded the digital copy of the movie, and when I try to copy to iPod it says, "'Star Trek into Darkness' was not copied to the iPod 'Erik' because it cannot be played on this iPod".
    What is up with that? I have the 120GB iPod Classic. Does anyone have any ideas as to why iTunes is being mean right now?

    Hello MissingMyMind,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I would download an SD version of the movie, and try to sync that. I am assuming that the version you have is in HD.

  • Everything I download to iPad via iTunes disappears during "Processing".  Restrictions disabled. Tried the Star Trek Into Darkness soundtrack and the Star Trek (2009) film. Same for each. Plenty of space available, the largest newest gen iPad.

    I recently purchased the most recent iPad.  I bought the one with the most storage available, wifi only.  I'm unable to download any iTunes purchases as they just disappear during the "Processing" portion of the download.  I've tried this with the Star Trek Into Darkness soundtrack and the Star Trek (2009) film.  All files behave the same way.  Restrictions are currently not enabled.  I can't figure out why it's doing this.  Please help?

    I have seen this on my iPad but it is usually with synced music. I know I have songs on the iPad but when I start tapping on the various tabs at the bottom of the app, I get the no Music message. Really quite annoying.
    If I quit the Music app from the recents tray and restart the music usually shows up - because it's really ther and should show up! Not to be redundant, but did you try doing a spotlight search! Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the search feature. Or do you look in Settings>General>Storage>Usage and check to see if music is accounted for in there?
    The only other thing that I can think of to try would be to reboot your router and see if that helps. Unplug it for about 30 seconds.

  • Stuttering On Demand - Star Trek Into Darkness

    Is there a problem with this particular video?
    It is stuttering from the beginning every few seconds.
    I watched an HD stream on Love Film last night no problem.
    BT speed checker shows...
    So my line looks OK.
    Just tried a Picturebox stream and it's working fine, so this suggests the problem is with the Star Trek feed.
    Anyone else having this problem with VOD depsite having a solid line?

    I bought the movie and while it waws downloading I had no problem watching the film without interruption.  Then next day I tried watching the movie and would get the three country screen, I selected US and then nothing.  After a while the screen saver would come on.  I rebooted and rebooted again.  Still the same thing.  So I decided to see if I could watch it on my Iphone.  Using the Apple TV remote app I went over to movies selected Star Trek Into Darkness and guess what happened, it played on my TV.  Don't know if this will help.  Good Luck

    I have recently purchased and redeemed a copy of Star Trek: Into Darkness. For some reason, the files download just fine, but when I attempt to play them they open the movie player but the screen stays black and the advancement time does not begin to count up. I have tried pressing play, closing and reopening itunes, redownloading the file, restarting the computer, updating itunes, updating video card drvers, and still nothing happens.
    Please help. I'd like to watch this sometime soon!!!

  • I put in the code to get the digital copy for star trek into darkness, and i clicked download later, but it didn't show up in my movie library like the other movies i did the same thing to, where is my digital copy of star trek?

    Yes, the old album art view is gone, bu you can see the album art for a song that's playing by clicking on the art image and it will open a bigger view.
    Everything else in your post is a waste. I'm not going to spend time reading it. If - and I repeat if, you have a question on how to get the best out of the new look iTunes, post it. But don't spend your time in long rambling negative rants.

  • Horizontal Gray Line appearing on my movie (Star Trek Into Darkness)

    Hello, I have been looking for a solution to my issue but all I get is references to iMovie and movie impot/export via iMovie.`
    http://gyazo.com/b58cb0236664e7aef5f9561ad8761ec4
    This is the issue - on Star Trek Into Darkness - a horizontal gray line appears at the bottom and doesn't go away at what ever resolution I put it at.
    http://gyazo.com/a27fb2cb9e40c9886b71677fd0443716
    Alternatively, this is Star Trek and there is no gray line. I legitamtely purchased both of these movies, both Standard Definition (SD) but somehow, Into Darkness is giving me this gray line.
    Solutions?
    I've tried updating, restarting, tweaking preferences and so on.
    Thanks,
    -Trace

    Jon, I really don't. The only thoughts on audio desync I may have is VirtualDub
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tqDQNqDoGo
    Or Adobe Premiere which is probably a more advanced video and audio editing software, but I've never used either one
    Okay. Was concentrating more on finding a problem source that might be affecting both QT based apps (QT Player and iTunes) albeit with different problems. My basic assumption here is that the purchased file was correctly created and not corrupted during both download actions and doesn't really have either a video or audio problem. If true, then it is the players that are causing the playback problems and one point of commonality for both would be the QT structure routines shared by each. Unfortunately, it doesn't explain why each player manifests a different symptom for the same file. Was therefore asking if you were familiar with any known installation issues in this area. Also did not know if indiscriminant re-installation of the structure and/or affected apps would create a problem with the active media library under Windows if such action should become necessary. Did not find any reference to similar problems during a spot chack of movie file reviews and/or reported iTunes/QT problems under Windows OS but was hoping you might have come across something in your own experiences. Looks like this issue is a real mystery...

  • HT1539 I downloaded my digital copy of Star Trek Into Darkness, but it's HD and I can't play it. I didn't see anything about whether I wanted HD or Standard. How do I get this changed?

    Check the mute switch on the side above the volume rocker. If the red dot shows, the phone is muted. You'll still be able to play the ringtones to select one.
    I find that the switch can be thrown to "mute" by accident when I put my iPhone in my belt holster.

  • I can't sync my downloaded digital copies of Star Trek into darkness and captain america to my iPod touch 5th generation? I manually sync everything but it will not transfer at all! I have 64 gb. Help!!!

    I downloaded and synced Sherlock Holmes and start trek 3009 just fine on my iPod touch 2nd generation before years back. I manually download and sync all my stuff.

    Do they play in iTunes on the computer?

  • I recently purchased Star Trek into Darkness on Bluray in the UK. When the digital copy with the movie had finished downloading in iTunes, it said processing and then iTunes suddenly stopped working and I had to shut it down. Now I can't see it at all.

    Can any one help as the digital copy downloaded but was processing when iTunes froze and then I had to shut it down. I have the latest version and am using iTunes on a windows PC. I would imagine similar problems could arise on download processing if there was a power cut so surely iTunes knows that my ID has redeemed the movie and it will continue now?
    Can anyone help?

    I forgot to add that when I looked at the store for available downloads it only continued to download the movie extras  which is only 69MB of menu items and no movie content.

  • Anyone had issues with iTunes 11.0.4 like me? Keep getting initial (post upgrade) tutorial screen when going into iTune and loss of sync with 1st Gen Apple TV (infuriating as have to re-connect and re-sync everything!!!)

    Following upgrade to iTunes 11.0.4 I have had intermittent but numerous (at least 10 incidents) where I go into iTunes and I am presented again with the initial (post upgrade) registration/tutorial screen....as if I have just upgraded iTunes!
    This is very frustrating as apart from having to keep re-setting my preferences (e.g. display side bar and menu bar), iTunes no longer recognises my Apple TV (1st generation) as a device. If I check on my Apple TV under 'Computers' my iTunes library is displayed but 'grayed out' indicating the Apple TV can no longer 'see' my iTunes Library. To resolve, I then have to disconnect the Apple TV from my iTunes Library then reconnect again (which works) but ou've guesses it...al the music and movies I have synced across to Apple TV needs to be synced across again....which takes time as we know.
    I have re-installed (and re-downloaded) iTunes twice and ruled out any connectivity issues. I suspect some form of bug with iTunes.
    Anyone else experienced this and any tips to fix this?

    Yes stupid itunes 11.0.4 does not sync to my Apple TV. I tried resetting it and no luck.

  • Videos won't play on iPad 1st gen.

    none of the tv shows I purchased from iTunes will play on my daughters 1st gen iPad anymore. Never had a problem until today. When app is opened, the screen is black but glowing slightly with the circulating "loading" icon in the center. Loads for a mere 3 seconds then goes completely black. I have done a reset (pressing home and power buttons simultaneously) twice and problem is not resolved. please help.  Operating on OS 5.1.1 (highest OS on 1st generation).

    Yes I did find a solution.
    With the iPad connected to my computer, in iTunes, I synched the iPad.
    Then told iTunes to do a Restore on the iPad.
    It went through the process and the problem was fixed.
    The iPad was restored from my last back up.
    Problem solved.
    Have you already tried this?
