Movies in the cloud not listed in iTunes 12

I purposely do not download many of my redeemed movies so I can stream them.  In iTunes 11, there would be a little cloud icon to indicate a movie was in the cloud.  That icon is gone and, at first, I could not find a large part of my movie library.  However, I was able to find the rest of my movies my going to the Purchased list in my account.  Even the little cloud icon is there.
The question is: how do I get my complete list of downloaded and cloud movies without going to the purchased items list?

Nevermind.  I figured it out from a Youtube video that was posted when iTunes 11 came out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4HAfCY1ex4.  For some reason, iTunes is turning off the Store preference to see purchased content that is in the cloud!  Why in the world would they do this?  In any case, turning that pref back on fixes the problem.

    how to transfer music from itunes to the cloud not bought on itunes

    You cannot yet transfer music from your system to iCloud. That capability will come with iTunes Match, expected any day now though probably not initially in all countries. iTunes Match will also not be a free service.

  • Movies in the cloud not working

    Hi,
    So... on and off today, the movies we've purchased from the iTunes store but left in iCloud are unplayable.
    Actually, for a moment there they also disappeared. I did find a way to get them back. First, I had to go under the "View" menu in iTunes and "hide" and then "show" the movies again. Otherwise, there was no option in preferences to "show purchased videos..." in the iTunes preferences. That alone seems like a bug (if I didn't go through the view menu stuff, the preference choice to show purchased videos just wasn't there).
    But now, I go into iTunes and I have to keep going in to preferences to RE-select to show purchased videos, otherwise I can't see the movies in the cloud. This is messed up. On our Mini, I can see them but they have no icon in itunes and when I try to push play they stall at zero. This is only the videos parked in the cloud that I'm talking about. And yes, the internet connection is working otherwise.
    Has anybody else had a similar experience... and if yes, what to do?

    Apologies, it appears I have posted this in the incorrect category. I have posted a duplicate under iTunes for Mac. Unfortunately i have no idea how to remove my original post.

  • HT4902 If you have 2 devices and not all the contacts are on both devices, will the 2 lists be merged upon moving or will one source dominate in the cloud? Same with iTunes lists. Due to a loss when moving to Lion, I haven't synched for fear of losing con

    If one has 2 devices that are ready for the move to the cloud and they don't share an identical contact list, iTunes collection, or calendar items, which device will dominate with respect to that info?
    Will all contacts from both devices merge into one big list? Is there a way to do it? This is what I'm hoping for because in the move to Lion, my hard drive needed to be wiped and much was lost but which remains on the iPhone. In past synchings of the iPhone to the  Mac Pro, I always seem to lose something in iTunes, Calendars and Contacts. I've checked settings and cannot find a reason that the two devices arrange to do this but if anyone has any ideas, I'd very much appreciate your suggestions.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Your profile states that you are using OS X 10.6.8, whereas you will require OS X10.7.2 or better in order to use iCloud. You will need to update to lion in order to use iCloud with your Mac.
    To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
    Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud.
    You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
    The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photosstream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
    To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
    In respect of contacts and calendars, when you enable synchronisation from your settings, you will be offered the opportunity to merge your information.

  • HT1390 Where the **** is the downloaded movie? I already tried to download it a second time and the computer tells me it recognizes I already downloaded this movie, but I go to itunes and movies and it is not listed.

    Where the **** is the downloaded movie? I already tried to download it a second time and the computer tells me it recognizes I already downloaded this movie, but I go to itunes and movies and it is not listed.
    I've checked my downloads folder, the movie I rented is nowhere in my itunes library, but if I go to rent it again the store tells me I will be renting it a second time. *** apple? I've got a show in an hour, guess I'll rent it twice. Thanks.

    You donwloaded it on your ipod ( this is the ipod forum)?  it is in the videos app.
    On your computer?  it should be in your library under movies.

  • How do I transfer a purchased iTunes movie to the cloud and free up the 5GB from my iPad?

    I purchased a movie from iTunes using my iPad. How can I transfer that movie to the cloud and free up the 5GB from my iPad?

    There is nothing to "transfer." The iTunes in the Cloud service is always-on. Simply delete the movie from the iPad and it will still be in your purchase history for re-download. However it is strongly recommended that you download all purchases to your computer and back them up locally as the iTunes in the Cloud service is not a backup service and should be relied on as such.
    To find the movie in your purchase history in iTunes make sure you are logged in with the same Apple ID used to purchase the movie on the iPad.

  • Itunes is showing only what is in the cloud,not the whole library

    Itunes is only showing what is in the cloud not the whole music library

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

  • Can't download a purchased movie from the cloud or watch trailers in iTunes movies

    Can't download a purchased movie from the cloud or watch trailers in iTunes movies

    Hello Addymay2,
    I would recommend signing out of your Apple ID in Settings -> iTunes and App Stores. After this, close all open apps and restart your device. Once your iPad is powered back up, sign back into your Apple ID in Settings -> iTunes and App Stores.
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
    iOS: Force an app to close

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • No movies in the cloud

    Recently Apple has given access to Canada movies in the cloud as of yesterday I do not have access. Is this a temperary problem?

    Do not buy movies thinking it will be in the clouds, it's misleading, your movies can disappear.
    Apple is only lying to us with their partner movie industry. I bought lots of movies, to then loose them because they were pulled from the iTunes Store. People if you decide to buy make sure you have a hard drive where you can download, as you can see, there is no movie in the iCloud.

  • 01/06/12 I am waiting to have movies in the cloud. Has anyone heard anything??

    I have bought a lot of movies from Itunes and lost them when I had to reinstall Windows 7. I did not take the time to make a backup and I am hoping Apple will put movies on the cloud. Has anyone heard any recent news about this and doesn't Apple realize that people would buy more movies if they didn't have to worry about losing them??

    First of all - if anybody did know - they could not discuss it on this site since I'm pretty sure they would be violating a non disclosure agreement with Apple - if somebody actually knew. Any other knowledge would just be rumored or speculation and that is also prohibited on this site.
    Not being able to redownload purchased movies has nothing to do with Apple not wanting to offer the feature. I'm pretty sure that It has to do with the movie studios not wanting to grant the rights to download the movies again at no cost. It really is a decision that must be made/approved by the movie studios.

  • Trouble downloading movies from the cloud to new pc computer (windows 8)

    Hello jarhna,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your downloading items you purchased from iTunes.  I don't think you're doing anything wrong, but I did find an article that has steps to address the error you are getting:

  • Ipad backup not listed in itunes device backups but is on drive

    I am trying to help a friend who upgraded their iPad mini to iOS7 but lost all the notes.
    They did a backup but it now not listed in itunes device backups but I fount the folder on the hard drive with 8 other listed backups.
    How do I add the original backup into itunes and restore from it?
    Thanks anyone.

    Hey Phantom42
    Move them into folders that is listed below and iTunes should recognize it. Look in the Back up your backup sections to see the location.

  • Do you have to store songs locally before they will move to the cloud?

    do you have to store songs locally before they will move to the cloud?

    I agree, though yes, the question is not clear. 
    In the event you're asking if the songs have to be "local" meaning on an internal hard drive, the answer is a qualified "no." 
    You can have an itunes library on an external drive, but the drive has to be active when Match is running and it will also have to stay on in order for Match to work properly after that.  You can get around this by creating a separate empty library once you have moved everything to the cloud, and populating that library with the songs in the cloud.

    Apple doesn't own the copyrights to any of the entertainment content they sell. They are just the retailer. If the copyright owner decides they no longer what their product available on the iTunes Store then it will no longer be available. There's not a lot Apple can do about that. What it also says, at the bottom of the page in the fine print is:
    Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store... So backup your purchases. I backup all my purchases to local storage and do not depend on a third party to keep my data safe. It is your responsiblity.
