Movie won't finish downloading and won't go away!

My daughter started a download of a movie and was planning on renting it for a single showing. The movie has never finished downloading and everytime my ITunes syncs up when I start the computer, the downloading resumes and then I get an error message. I really don't want this movie anymore and I have tried to delete it, but it always seems to come back. How do I kill it once and for all.

Try reset your iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.

  • My movie didn't finish downloading. What can I do?

    I bought 'Gone with the wind' on Saturday night. My movie was downloading when my computer shut down because it wasn't plugged in and lost the charge. Sunday morning, when I turned my pc on, I found that the movie didn't finish downloading. I can't find it in my movies tab or in my recently purchased tab. I already paid for it and I don't know how to downloading it again without having to purchase it again. I looked the title up again in the store and it didn't show 'purchased' like it does with the songs, so I'm upset about not being able to find it in my library. What can I do? Thanks for your help!

    Check your purchase history to be sure you have purchased it.
    You can click Store>Check for Available downloads to see if it is still waiting to download.
    If not, then report the issue. Apple should resolve in a day or less:

    This means that you have downloadd the file from the internet, and the file did not download completely so the computer can't play it. To fix this, just re-download the file and make sure it finishes.

    I just finished downloading and attempting the install of ios 7 on my iPhone 5.  I'm using the newest version of iTunes. 
    And now, I'm stuck at the screen with the iTunes logo and the plug.  But no matter how many times I try, recovery mode will not work.  My phone is currently useless unless I can figure this out.

    No problem, glad to help!
    Update: my PC USB hub was connected to a USB 3 port, I connected the 30 pin cable directly to my PC, And the restore worked just fine. Restored phone from iCloud backup and seems to be working fine.

  • I rented a movie on my iPhone 4, and it didn't have enough space to download the rest. It won't let me delete it cause it still wants to finish downloading, and I can't find it through itunes. Am I missing something? Please help.

    Please help me here, I'm all out of space and I want to download music. **** movie took up 4.1gigs and it won't delete.

    Sounds like your iPhone is in recovery mode as the update failed. You will now need to restore the iPhone to factory settings with iTunes on a computer. If your iPhone is not being recognised by your computer read one of the articles below based on your computers OS:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

  • HT1390 can my rental time get extended because the rental did not finish downloading and now I won't have time to watch it today

    I downloaded the movie Battleship yesterday and tried to watch it but I could only watch half of it because it did not download all the way, well this morning it finished downloading with 10 hours left to watch the movie but I will not be able to watch it in that time frame because I have classes until later tonight so I was wondering if the rental time can be extended without me having to pay for the movie again since I did not get to watch it all when I tried to?

    Contact iTunes Customer Support and ask them.

  • ITunes movie will not finish downloading

    Why won't my itunes movie finsh downloading? it keeps telling me unknown error!!

    I have the same problem except I'm on my iPod and it's been trying to download a movie since Christmas Day. It will download and say processing for a couple days and tell me an error message. I know I have room for it seeing as I go into my videos app and it's there and ready for me to watch it.

  • I downloaded an audiobook but it didn't finish downloading and has taken my money but keeps saying the item is unavailable now.

    I downloaded an audiobook but it didn't let me finish downloading it and it has taken my money but every time I try to download the audiobook, it says the item is unavailable now.

    Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download and don't appear in the Purchased link for re-downloading, so you will need to try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history to contact support : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that audiobook and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • The app I want to download from the cloud will not finish downloading and keeps restarting.

    I tried to update the I Am T-Pain 2.0 app, but the update failed. I tried starting the download process over and over again, but it would not download. I had experienced a similar issue before so I deleted the app and the temporary files from the download and tried downloading the app from iCloud. It didn't work. The download will start all over when it is about to finish. Really annoying.

    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to resume the download.
    And you did try rebooting like this? Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons

  • Movie Did Not Finish Download...Just Stuck!

    I have downloaded Pearl Harbor and it has gotten to 1.52 of 1.76 GB's and it has just quit. It is still displayed, but the remaining time has gone away. I have checked for purchases, disable antivirus software, and even run the Windows Config. It's basically just stuck, what should I do? Please help!!

    Look for a folder called "Downloads" in your iTunes Music folder. If there is such a folder, look for files that would be the partial download and delete those, so that the download starts over from the beginning. Then try again using the "Check for Purchases" command under the iTunes Store menu.
    If that doesn't work, contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the form at the bottom of this web page and explain the problem to them.
    Hope this helps.
