My Apple TV deletes downloaded movies/series before I've watched them. How do I stop this?

My Apple TV sometimes deletes downloaded movies/series before I've watched them. How do I stop the episodes /movies being deleted before I watch them?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Downloads are deleted to make room for something else or when the device is turned off, if you don't want your downloads removing, you need to avoid doing one of the things that will cause this.

    Delete the Gmail SMTP server, then pick the correct SMTP server for the account that you are using.
    Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): expand the dropdown next to the label and delete the incorrect server, then pick the correct server and check the box that says "Use Only This Server"

  • TS3092 my wireless apple mouse works to move the arrow but will not scroll. how can I fix this?

    my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

    Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
    If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning.  Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.

  • Gettting apple support email in my email account like 300 an hour how do i stop this

    Gettting apple support email in my email account like 300 an hour how do i stop this

    Thanks - would you please confirm you clicked "Save" at the bottom of this page:
    ... and you selected all the email subscriptions on the next page, and clicked "Remove Selected Notifications"?
    Go back to that page and make sure that the changes took effect.
    As Frank wrote, "that should do it".
    If you are still having trouble, please post a brand new question in this forum:

    ... because in that case something is broken that you will not be able to fix. Thanks!

  • Downloaded movies disappearing before they are watched and in less that the 30 days to watch them

    We have downlaoded movies on Apple TV.  They take over two to three hours to download even though we have the fasted wireless router you can buy (bought only 2 months ago) and then after they have been downloaded it is usually a day or two later that we have time to watch them and when we go to view them they are no longer in the available list of movies to watch.  So we have been charged for them but never got to see them. 

    I checked the speeds (coudl not get "speediest.net" but found speedtest.net) adn the speeds were
    Download 23.05 Mbps
    Upload - 2.43 Mbps
    Not sure if that is fast enough but the cable service we have they have rated the service we have as the fastest the provide. 
    Re the 1 or 2 seconds having been viewed and therefore the "clock" starting on the 48 hours - not sure as all we have ever done is click on "rent" and then it starts to down load and it shows that it will be taking forever to download so we leave it to download.  Given it does nto download at the time we "rent it" we ahve to come back to view it another day.  We have seen the movie we have rented at the top of the screen the next day or so (have not actuially validated the time from when it was downloaded to see if maybe the point above applies even thought we do not think we are watching it) adn then when we have time to watch it we go back a few days later (this last time was 7 days) and it is gone. 

  • Why are my emails being deleted since I've updated to ios7? And how do I stop this?

    Good old ios7 has taken away the ability to know how many emails you want to store I.e. 25, 50, 200 etc. It also takes it upon itself to just delete emails whenever it fanices. I'm not talking about confirming deletes once you've pressed the trash can icon, I'm talking about just deleting it itself when it wants. Can you please tell me how to stop this auto deleting and how to store more emails? Thank you.

    This will occur when you share an apple id with someone.
    ON each devices go to settings - mail - send&receive- remove or uncheck the apple id.

  • My ipod 5th generation has frozen 12 times today and it deleted all of my pictures it will say restoring then it will delete them how can I stop this from happening?

    My iPods pictures got deleted when my ipod crashes I have over 32,000 pictures I know that that's a lot but they are family pictures, work pictures, and school pictures. They usually restore pretty fast but lastly they won't restore at all. I don't know what to do. I just want my pictures back plus I want this to stop. My friends want me to send it to apple but I don't know what they will do and if ill ever get my pictures back. Somebody please help me fix this thanks.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iPad mini is going to delete all my pictures in 16 days.. How do I stop this?

    my younger cousin was playing games on my iPad and when I wne to get it back, she was in settings and had clicked iCloud storage and clicked something. It now says it will delete all my pictures. It has a button saying "Undo delete" but when I click it, nothing happens. I have very important pictures on this device and dont have access to a computer to download all my files. HELP!!

    If you can't "Recover" them from the recently deleted,
    Take a screen shot of them.
    It can take a while, if you have a lot of them, but you will get another copy of them on the device
    With the picture on the screen press the Home and sleep/wake, at the same time, for less then a second.
    Note it will take a picture of the whole screen.

  • Firefox opens a new window and moves the active tab to it. How do I stop this?

    Got multiple tabs open. Firefox suddenly closes the tab I'm working on (this seems to happen when I'm scrolling) and moves it to a new window, shifting the focus to a previously inactive tab. What a swell feature! How can I get rid of it?

    Firefox 3.5/6 versions have a feature called tear-off tabs.
    You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
    You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

  • Every time I plug my Ipod touch 4g in my computer to itunes, it deletes all of my apps on my ipod. How can I stop this? x

    Hey Guys,
                      I got an Ipod touch 4g for Christmas and am having a few problems. Firstly, everytime I plug my ipod into my laptop onto itunes to put music onto it, all of my apps on my ipod get deleted and I can't go on them. Have you got any tips?
    Your help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks xxx

    It appears that you previous synced the iPod with another iTunes library/computer. You can only sync with one iTunes library.  If yuy try to sync with another library the iPOd will be erased and its contents replaced with the contents in the iTunes library of the computer.

  • Each time I open foxfire a popup asking how to process a download opens and inhibits use of foxfire. How do I stop the popup?

    each time I open foxfire a .LNK popup appears asking how to process a download opens and inhibits use of foxfire. How do I stop this and allow me to open and use foxfire browser. This started after I attempted to follow directions to install/associate a .LNK program/file with foxfire to control saving downloads using any browser. Note that I am a novice user. How can I stop this?

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

    If you purchase them, yes, but may need to transfer them to a computer's iTunes library first. If you rent them, no.
