I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

HT204053 I can not get my Icloud to work on my iphone and ipad since i set up my new email addy on Apple Icloud won't let me change it on those devices ...Plz Help Shey

I can not get my Iphone or ipad to except the new email address that is now on Apple so nothing will back up or work on Icloud on those devices Thx plz help Sheyw

With iCloud on the phone, you will need to remove the account, then add it back in with the new address. It is a bit awkward, but the only way to change the AppleID for the iCloud account login is to delete the account then add it back with the new credentials. You won't loose anything as the iCloud account is still the same one, you just need to re-associate the AppleID credentials for it on the iPhone.

How do i change the icloud account associated with my iphone and ipad when i forgot the password and no longer have access to the email account?

I have an iPhone 5c and an ipad 3. using the latest version of iOS. I can't delete the old iCloud account on the devices without putting in a password but I don't have it, nor a way to change it via email since the email acct is an old one.

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your devices, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I was setting up my IPod Nano 7 for the first time and I can't play the songs I bought. What did I do wrong?

I was setting up my IPod Nano7 for the first time and purchased 3 songs. When I went to play it on my IPod the screen said "No Music". What did I do wrong?

We are going through same thing and looks like alot of other people also. Seems to me Apple would have invalid email instead of us loosing the gift card all together. Very irratating. Good Luck.

HT2452 I have an iMac with iCloud. For some strange reason, yesterday, my apple id password quit working on my iCloud account. I went through the iforgot process of resetting it. The reset worked on mu iPhone, and iPad but won't work on iMac

HELP! I cannot sign in with new password on Imac but the password works on Ipad and iphone through icloud.... Just started eysterday after the status problem listed on the i cloud page.

I am having the same problem, starting today (12/15). Here's a more complete description of my problem.
About two weeks ago, I changed the email address associated with my Apple ID. The old address had been taken over by spammers, so it had to go. I followed the procedure in Manage My Apple ID, and everything seemed fine until today.
I am running Yosemite, 10.10.1 on an elderly Macbook Pro (2009)
I got a message saying I couldn't access iCloud and needed to log in in System Preferences. I tried logging in with my then correct password. After 3 tries I was locked out and told to use iForgot to reset my password. I used my recovery key and reset my password "successfully". My new password allows me to log into iCloud.com, iTunes on my Mac and on my iPhone 6, I am able to use my iCloud keychain on both devices, and I can log into Manage My Apple ID with the new password. I was also able to use the new password to log into iCloud on my iPhone. Access to iCloud drive from Pages appears to be working on my iPhone, but not on my Mac. I was also able to sign into the App Store on the Mac.
However, in System Preferences, I cannot log into iCloud and I cannot log into my iCloud mail account (both appear to use the same login). I get a message saying I have been blocked for security reasons and I need to reset my password. This is exactly the state I was in when I went and changed my password so it appears that the change didn't get communicated to system preferences. Without iCloud access, my apps that use iCloud for storage and/or syncing with iPhone apps are of limited usefulness. This may be key to the problem or at least a clue: System Preferences still thinks my Apple ID uses the old email address not the one it was changed to. The only way I know to change the address is through Manage My Apple ID
I tried rebooting by doing a full shutdown and restart, but it did not help. I also tried cursing at my Macbook but that did not help either.
I can use iCloud.com for mail and Documents since it recognizes my password. But this is at best a temporary work around. I'm off to check other sources for help. I'll report back when I know more.

Cannot get iCloud to work on upgraded iPhone

This week I upgraded my iPad (iPad 2), & iPhone (iPhone 4) to IOS7.
I did the iPad2 first. There were no problems with the upgrade to IOS7. After upgrading, I logged into iCloud on my iPad using the correct ID and gave correct password. There were no problems. I was able to wanted to turn on "Find my iPad" without any problem.
I upgraded the iPhone4 next. There were no problems with the upgrade to IOS7. After upgrading, I logged into iCloud, again using the correct ID and correct password. I immediately received this error message:
"Photo Stream - Photos for the iCloud account "iCloud" cannot be accessed. Review your account information in Settings".
You are given the choice of "Ignore" and "Settings". I pressed the "Settings" button and arrived at the main settings screen, with no other information. However, the iCloud setting is greyed out (disabled). I cannot access any iCloud settings. Likewise, in the "Photos & Camera" setting, the icons for "My Photo Stream" and "Photo Sharing" are greyed out (disabled).
Nothing I do will allow me to access iCloud settings.
I tried turning off the iPhone (resetting it). Once I turn it on again, I go to settings/iCloud. Tapping this brings up the iCloud login. I enter the correct password (for the correct ID), and immediately get the above "Photo Stream..." error.
I have tried this 4 times now. I can say with some confidence that resetting the phone does NOT fix the problem.
SO - what is going on, and how can I get iCloud to work on my iPhone?
Thanks.
p.s. The iPad's iCloud is working just fine.

If your iCloud setting is greyed out, go to Settings>General>Restrictions>Accounts (near the bottom) and set this to Allow Changes.

Comcast came to fix my internet. My AIRPORTWIFI now only works with desktop. it doesn't work with my IPhone or IPad. Why? What can I do?

Hello lila54,
It sounds like your Wi-Fi network is working if your desktop works with it, we just need to get the Wi-Fi on your iPhone and iPad connected to it. I found a couple of resources to help with not being able to connect to Wi-Fi on an iOS device.
I recommend following the steps in this tutorial first (the steps should work on the iPhone and iPad):

If you are still having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi, follow the steps in this article (you can skip any steps you have already taken):

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
