Know how to resolve when the ipad will not download a movie from the ITunes Store?

my ipad will not completely download rented movies. It shows that it is "Purchased" but never completes the download so the movie cannot be watched in its entirety.

I suspect you don't have enough Available storage space. Check at Settings>General>About>Available

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • My macbook will not download any apps from the app store. I don't know how to fix it, help?

    My macbook will not download any apps from the app store. im running on mac os x 10.6.8. I don't know how to fix it, help?

    Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    That will re download and install the App Store for you which may help.
    It's ok to install the combo even though you are already running v10.6.8
    Restart your Mac after combo is installed, try downloading apps.
    Note... if you have Little Snitch installed that will prevent downloads. If you have anti virus software installed, disable that and turn off the Firewall in System Prefereces > Security.

  • Error 3131: Will not download my music from the cloud

    Just got a new mac and it partially downloaded my music from the cloud but when I try to finish downloading it gives me Error 3131. I have tried logging out and back in, as well as quitting iTunes and restarting.

    Make sure you have the latest software updates for OS X and iTunes, if you aren't sure how to do that take a look at this Apple doc -> OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps.
    If that doesn't take care of it, try following along with this Apple doc -> iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads

  • My iPad will not download a movie purchased on my Mac

    I can see the movie on "shared" when my Mac is on. Why is there no sync movies in the iCloud section?

    Thinking about it meaning that the downloading circle is just spinning and spinning? Why don't you explain what you mean.

  • Quicktime 7.5.5 will not download quicktime movies from webpage sources

    I had no difficulty downloading movies before I upgraded to 7.5.5. All I had to do was click on the down-pointing arrow on the lower right-hand corner of the preview, and I could make a permanent copy of the download. I cannot do that with 7.5.5 altho' the help menu says I should be able to. Instead of showing the movie on preview as it used to on a screen that had the necessary arrow, now those movies go directly to the quicktime movie program and there is no way I can see to save the download permanently.
    So where are these movies going? They're not protected, I know, since I was able to download from the same sources before, and they are not pay sites.
    I have leopard 10.5.5 on an intell iMac.

    That's professionally terse and should be informative, but it doesn't help at all since it doesn't happen to be true. I never had pro, nor was I ever able to ''Save As'' with the qt version I had. The new quicktime 7.5.5 does claim I should be able to save such movies however. In its instructions under ''help'', it informs me that I should first see a sample movie, centered on the computer screen, and that movie panel should have, on its lower right-hand corner, a down-pointing arrow which, when clicked on, offers 3 options, one of which is ''save as quicktime movie''. I should see that screen, and according to the 7.5.5 instructions, I should have those options. I used to, with the earlier qt version, but I don't anymore - not with 7.5.5. Unfortunately, that particular preview movie screen never opens. Instead, the movie immediately opens on the qt screen in the upper left-hand corner of the computer and is impossible to save. Of course, the publicity for the upgrade says that all these movies are stored in the quicktime browser's cache, but I can't find the cache so while they may be there, we'll apparently never know - unless, of course, you happen to know how to open the browser cache.
    Do you?

    The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

  • I have 2  iPads both the sane except for case color. One connects to my home wifi fine, the other will not "join". It finds the wifi name and the little circle turning wheel just spins.

    I have 2  iPads both the sane except for case color. One connects to my home wifi fine, the other will not "join". It finds the wifi name and the little circle turning wheel just spins. I have tried about ten different "fixes" none work.. Reboot, forget wifi, etc.
    Unplugged wifi on and on for about an hour.
    I have compared settings between the two and cannot see any difference.
    Both iPads worked fine last week. One made a trip to MI  and used cellular access just fine. Now that one still uses cellular OK, but refuses to "join" the wifi.
    Too bad I can't attach a picture.
    Anyone care to offer a unique workable solution I have not tried?
    Thanks

    Have you tried renewing the lease in the WiFi settings? Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Tap the blue arrow>Renew Lease. If you haven't tried that - try it first before reading the information about restoring the iOS software.
    Follow the instructions in here. If you are unsure about anything - do not proceed. Post back with questions first.
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software - Apple - Support
    Make sure that you transfer all purchases, backup the iPad and sync with iTunes first. When you restore to factory settings, iTunes should ask if you want to backup first, but it will not hurt to initiate a backup on your won before you even start the restore process.

  • My iPad will not charge, it can sync to iTunes and transfer data/music to it, but when plugged in to a USB or an A/C wall adapter all it says is not charging.

    My iPad will not charge, it can sync to iTunes and transfer data/music to it, but when plugged in to a USB or an A/C wall adapter all it says is not charging.

    A lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.
    In terms of the wall charger, have you tried a different charger and/or cable, or do you know anybody else with an iPad so that you can try their charger and cable and they can try yours ?
    Have you tried a reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • After updating my wife's iPad to iOS6 the ipad will not connect to wifi on certain wireless routers. What can we do? Also, same for iPad mini with same router. But iPhone that has iOS5 has no problem connecting.

    Need help. Before updating to latest software iOS6 the iPad had no issues connecting on our home router. After updating the iPad will not work. We have a mini iPad with same issue. But I have a iPhone 4S that I chose not to update to iOS6, still has iOS5. It connects no problem to router. Our computers have no issues connecting to router either. There is a software issue with iOS6.0.1 that will not allow certain routers to communicate. What can I do?  Also, the mini iPad stated a newer version of software is out, version 6.0.2 which is supposed to correct the wifi problems. It has helped but still haven't connectivity issues. However, the iPad states software is up-to-date so we cannot update to 6.0.2 even through connecting to computer on iTunes. How can that be?

    Try going to settings, reset , reset network settings.

  • My iPad won't let me sign into my Apple ID when I try and download an app it asks for my id and password and when i type it in the iPad displays a message saying cannot connect to iTunes Store. However when i do this on my phone it works perfectly.

    Has anyone else had this problem? If so how can I fix this?

    Remember, any purchased item from the itunes store is forever associated with the Apple ID used to buy it.  So when you get prompted for an ID/password and it doesn't accept it, then you are using the wrong ID.
    Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores, be sure it's logged into the ID you have set on the iphone (since that one seems to be connecting with the right ID).  If you've done this, then you might wait a bit to see if the "cannot connect to .. store" message has to do with internet connections.
