Movies in iTunes works fine but won't play on Apple Tv

So I have a couple of movies that works fine in my iTunes and won't work when streamed in my Apple Tv (2gen)
The first just doesn't start and the second one have audio problems.
iTunes is on a Macbook Pro 15'' Late 2011 high end via my Time Capsule in my Apple Tv second generation
And again, the movies are playing just fine on my computer ... it's when they are streamed that the problem happen. By the way it's not my connection, everything has been checked up on this side... And everything is up to date
Anyone ? ... thanks

OOur internet service is not always fast enough to stream directly on Apple TV which is why we want to use AirPlay from the iPad to Apple TV. When we try to play a movie it starts for one second and then crashes out. This does not happen with every TV show - we watched 8 episodes of Season 4 with no problem, but it would not play episode 9 or episode 1 of season 5.

HT1725 My first time purchasing, downloading and watching a movie from itunes worked fine but the second did not! An error (unknown error 50) kept coming up no matter how often I tried resuming the download or restarting my laptop and internet connection

My first ever purchase and download of a movie was successful but the second didn't download and came up with
"error 50 has occured". I tried downloading numerous times again after checking my internet connection and rebooting my
laptop. Still no luck and the Itunes store have charged me. Any suggestions please?

This error can be quite common:

Suddenly, I am unable to add photos to my project in Imovie 11. I have an IMac Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and have made several movies where this worked fine but for some reason, it has quit. Everything seems to be working fine except that?

I'm an oldtimer and have had this Mac for less than 2 yrs and have LOTS to learn - but I've climbed the curve a little. !'ve made several movies and published to YouTube and burned to disc using IDVD with reasonably good results. Each time I have added stills to my movies it has worked fine - but tonight, I'm suddenly unable to add them. I click "Photos" - select my photo - left click the photo and drag into the project while holding the click. Have the green "+" and the green highlight and even get the green vertical bar in the project but when I release the click, the photo simply disappears! One "clue" here may be this: I was able to add one still to this project and the only diff between it and the other still thumbnails now is that there is a "green check mark" on the thumbnail of the one successfully added. Any suggestions? (I do have the "advanced tools" option selected in IMovie Preferences.)
Thank you so much for any help at all.

Hi
My first thoughts are
• iMovie ill behaving - Trash the iMovie pref file - use to set things right
• in reg. to Photos - Did You change iPhoto Photo Library - Then iMovie get's lost as it peeks into iPhoto on start up to see where photos are stored. Set iPhoto back to first Photo Library (when iMovie is not running) then start iMovie.

I recently purchased season 5 of Downton Abbey. I have downloaded episode 1. It will play on my iPad but won't play on Apple TV. Other movies I have purchased work fine on Apple TV. Any suggestions as to what the problem may be?

TS1702 An audiobook I purchased on iTunes worked fine, but has gone completely silent, with 5 hours left.

I purchased an audiobook on my iPod Touch. The first half worked fine, but 17 minutes into the second part it just goes silent, even thugh there a 5 hours of the book left. What should I do?

- Try a reset. Nothing is lost:
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Delete the book and redownload by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

ITunes imports file, but won't play

I upgraded to 7.5, but now files (AIFF, WAVE, MP3) that I've downloaded from the Internet won't play (both free and purchased ones). When I double-click on the file, iTunes will open and draw it into the library, but won't play it. I see that other people have had similar problems, but haven't found an answer....Anyone had any luck solving this yet?

I purchased one from SoundDogs.com. I double-checked their FAQ, and re-downloaded their file. It works now. I'll have to check the others...

Dear All, I can't play flash videos from any web site through firefox because it freezes but when i run firefox as administrator then it works fine (But Google Chrome Plays all videos normally.) . I am using Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Please help

Dear All,
Firefox hangs when i try to play flash videos from any site but when i run firefox as administrator it works fine. (but Google Chrome, Opera & I.E9 Plays videos without running as administrator.) I am using Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Please help.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

ITunes working fine but it won't detect my ipod or upgrade firmware

I have a PowerBook G4, running the latest version of osx 10.4 and a 60 gig, 5G ipod. I was prompted over the weekend to install the new quicktime and the new itunes which I did. Both are working fine. I have no problem listening to music or viewing movies or whatever.
Except, the ipod is not being detected by itunes 7.0. I checked the ipod itself and it has the 1.1.2 version of the ipod firmware. I have done everything I can think to do including the first 4 Rs (Reset your iPod, Retry with a different USB port, Restart your computer, Reinstall iPod and iTunes software). I am not willing to try "Restore your iPod" because if that does not work I will have a blank iPod and I am about to travel for a few days and I want to have music on it when I leave.
I suppose the problem might be something about getting my ipod's firmware updated to 1.2 so that it can then be detected but the 1.2 update can only be done through iTunes 7.0. Worse, there does not seem to be any button I can push to FORCE iTunes to update the ipod firmware. This seems very chicken-eggish.
I don't actually see many folks have THIS problem. The closest is people who can't do much with the iPod but can at least see it in "source" within iTunes. I don't even see a "source" list along the left-hand side of iTunes 7.0 (I just see LIBRARY, STORE and PLAYLISTS).
Any thoughts on how I might resolve this?
PS, I have two ipod cables and tried both and tried them on each of the two USB ports on my powerbook. That plus the fact that I have never had a problem with either the ports or the cables before leads me to believe this is not the problem.

After several weeks of not finding answers here or elsewhere on the web - and after waiting for an iTunes 7.0.1 and getting it - I "gave up" and went to the Apple Store last night.
The Genius bar took my ipod, plugged it in to a mac, reached under the counter and handed me what they said was a NEW ipod (it was in a generic brown box with no accessories, cables, etc). I did not like that solution for two reasons. First, all of my family photos and videos were on my iPod and I did not like the idea that maybe those photos would turn up on the web someday. Second, it was a gift and had a personalized engraving on the back. When I pressed them on what they thought was wrong with my iPod they said it was not worth the time to figure out and they would just give me another one. Or I could ship in to Apple Support and they would send me a new one WITH the same engraving in a couple of weeks. I took the "new" iPod.
And, sure enough, when I connected it to my powerbook it was detected, the firmware was updated and iTunes synced all my music, photos and videos (and games).
The Genius bar people seems pretty sure that the problem was hardware (the port where you connected the USB cable at the bottom of the device). When I pointed out that it had been working fine right up until the day I upgraded to iTunes 7.0 and that it had not worked since they did not seem terribly interested.
So, my problem is "solved" in that I have a working iPod sans engraving.

Podcast feed works fine, but won't submit. Why?!

Hi,
I have been trying to submit my podcast to iTunes, but for some reason it won't accept it.
www.firestationartscentre.com/podcasts/strange_and_beautiful/feed.xml
The feed works fine with a manual subscribe, all episodes show up fine, but I get a 500 error everytime I try to submit it.
Any ideas please!?!
Very frustrated,
Dan

Of course it's not something I can test; possibly there is a glitch going on at the server, in which case it will probably sort itself if you wait a bit. I should give it until tomorrow: if it doesn't sort itself out I can only suggest emailing them at podcasts 'at' apple.com (though you may just get a form email telling you how to submit a podcast, which you already know).

Airport used to work fine, but won't connect to internet now

Hello. I bought my Macbook pro about two weeks ago and never had problems with my internet connection. I moved last week to another city, and had my wi-fi installed today. My brother has a Powerbook G4 and it worked fine with the new connection, but my Mac won't; it won't connect automatically when I turn the computer on and when I click on "open network preferences", nothing happens. I already got connected by clicking on Network Diagnostic in Safari, but i'd like to do so without going through all that everytime I need to get on the internet.
Can anybody help me to fix this problem? I'd really appreciate that. Thanks in advance.

Tell us about your network. How are you connected to the internet? Cable modem, DSL?... Is there a router involved? Which one is it? System Preferences>Network>Show:Airport>TCP/IP are you getting an IP address?

My ipod works fine, but won't connect to my car anymore. It did for two years, I have had the car checked out, and the car works with others' ipods and iphones.

My Audi is set up to be iPod compatible. For the first two years of the cars' life, my ipod worked fine. When it went out, I had the dealer replace the connection wire and check the system. My car now works fine with iphones and others' ipods, but not mine. I tried rebooting it and powering down, but nothing has worked to get the car to recognize the ipod. Would really appreciate anyone's thoughts on the matter. Many thanks.

So you tried everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
Try connecting to another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.

ITunes used to be fine, but won't play anything anymore

I had opted not to update to 7.5 until today. When I updated to iTunes ver. 7.3, the update created a "dead" duplicate for every mp3 that I had imported. I decided I did not need that hassle again, if it could be avoided.
Today, I noticed that none of my files would play in iTunes. There was no error message. When I select a track to play, the time remaining bar does not even start to move. I can select pause and then select play, but the tracks never start to play.
As a result of this new glitch, I updated to 7.5. The glitch has remained after a successful install. There is no error message, and iTunes is not locking up or "freezing." It just won't play a single track (I have tried tracks that are residing on my external HD, as well as those residing on my internal HD and none of the tracks play).
Please help.
Thanks,

ITunes songs, downloaded but won't play

l'll be listening to a random shuffle on my iPad, and seemingly randomly my iPad stops playing music. Next I'll select a song to play, the equalizer moves as if the song is playing, but no music comes out of the speaker and the song time tracking slider does not advance. I can seleat a song, which then shows up in the header but it won't play and music can't be heard. I've tried resetting, and that works for a short period of time, but this problem keeps coming back. I couldnt find a better community to post this to, if you have any suggestions, please let me know.

Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.
