No audio/visual on TV show downloaded from iTunes app on iPod touch

I downloaded a $3.99 Avatar TV episode from the iTunes app on my 2nd gen iPod touch, and it seemed to go smoothly until I tried playing the episode. It appears to be playing but all I see is black and there is no audio. I restarted my iPod twice; still, same problem. I can't re-download it without paying again. I have downloaded other Avatar TV episodes the same way before, and they were fine. What went wrong with this one?

As you connect the ipod touch to the computer, go to the ipod touch options (in devices), uncheck the manually manage.

  • Backing up albums downloaded directly from Itunes App on Ipod Touch

    My iPod touch is being sent for repair/replacement but i've bought a lot of content from the iTunes App on the iPod itself as i don't have my own PC or Mac. Is there any way I can keep the stuff I've paid for if they give me a new iPod? I.e. back it up somehow or maybe they can transfer all data to new one?

    Welcome to the discussion forums, Mike.
    I perceive that you do not use iTunes. If you use iTunes, it will back up your content. But, there are free or inexpensive 3rd party software tha will allow you to pull everything off your iPod onto a computer. Searching in this forum will turn up many hits such as

  • Ive had my iPod classic for some time now, and up to now have been using my laptop to sync songs from iTunes.  Unfortunatley, the laptop has died and I'm thinking of buying a iPad.....but how do i now get any songs downloaded from iTunes to my iPod?

    I've had my iPod classic for some time now, and up to now have been connecting it to my laptop to sync any downloaded tunes from iTunes.  Unfortunately, the laptop has died and I'm thinking of buying a iPad.....but how do I now get any songs downloaded from iTunes to my iPod?

    If an iPod is set to update automatically it will be associated with a particular library. If you connect that iPod to a different computer or a different library on the same computer you get the the message you are referring to. "The iPod "iPod Name"is linked to another another iTunes music library. Do you want to change the link to this iTunes music library and replace all existing songs and playlists on this iPod with those from this library". To use an iPod on multiple computers you change the update method to "manually manage songs and playlists". You can also use multiple iPods on a single computer so you will be able to connect both of your iPods to your existing iTunes. Connect the new iPod and follow the on screen instructions, iTunes will open and update your iPod.
    For info:
    The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
    1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
    2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
    3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

  • I can't load tv shows from iTunes onto my iPod touch.  I can't purchase video (tv shows) on the phone, either.  Anyone know anything about that?

    I can't sync tv shows from iTunes to my iPod Touch (4th gen).  I can't purchase tv shows on the iPod, either.  Anyone know what the problem is?
    Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Are you sure your computer is authorized for this? This is probably your issue.
    If you go to the "Advanced" tab on the top in iTunes, is there a "Deauthorize computer..." button or an "Authorize computer..." button? If there's an "authorize computer" link, then that is your issue. Authorize your computer, and you should be able to transfer iTMS purchased songs from iTunes to iPod.
    For details, see this Apple article:
    About iTMS authorization and deauthorization
    I hope this helps you,

  • Can't find music videos downloaded from iTunes on my iPod

    Any ideas as to why I can't find the music videos I've downloaded from iTunes on my iPod?

    I am currently using iTunes 7.5. I've made some music video on my own, I have converted the .dv format into .mp4 format. I first import the .mp4 files into the Movie library. But I cannot put these clips in the music video playlist the clips in the movie library. I then tried to import these clips again to the Music library. Nothing happened. I tried to copy the clips from the movie library and paste to the Music library, I could do the cut, but when I selected the music library, the paste command was gray out.

    No, you cannot download WhatsApp on the iPod Touch as it doesnt have a SIM CARD.
    WhatsApp requires the iDevice to have a Sim Card for validation purposes, etc.

  • TV show downloaded from iTunes stops intermittently playing

    It is doing my head in TV shows that I have downloaded from iTunes intermittently stops whilst viewing them through Apple TV. I have tried everything from unplugging Apple TV, Checking WIFI connection & speed , not sure what else to do as it is right beside the modem so should work perfectly. I have made sure it isn't sitting on anything that would interfere.
    Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

    It will be an issue with the local network
    Try connecting via ethernet
    To see a status of your network go to istumbler, netstumbler or similar to get a report. Look for signal strength, noise, Nearby networks

  • How do I get downloaded games from itunes to my ipod touch?

    I downloaded a few games for a trip I'm going on. I've looked through the manual, and I have tried, but I don't know how to get the games on my ipod touch?

    They need to be downloaded from the App Store, and the iPod touch needs to be running version 2 or higher of the firmware.

  • TS1702 I purchased an audiobook from itunes on my ipod touch yesterday.  Following an unsuccessful update to the ipod today, I had to restore it to factory settings and the audiobook has gone. How do I get it back without having to pay for it again?

    Hi Jen.  My daughter just compleated her nursing program and is now working as a full time nurse.  Focus and study hard and soon you will be there too.  Now to the problem at hand.  I have the same problem.  I gave up on it and satisfied myself with my iPod without the upgrade.  Reason being I've read so many posts of people having problems after the upgrade.  But I'm sure other factors are involved.  Nevertheless here is the fix most say works to solve the problem:  What ever virus protection you have installed on your computer, disable it.  Then try to install the update. After that enable the protection. I had Kaspersky, and it does it's job well. The thinking is, the virus protection is blocking the upgrade.  Hope this works.   Charlie

  • ITunes won't play tv shows downloaded from iTunes Store

    I can't play the tv shows that I downloaded from the iTunes store. Everytime I try to open up a tv show I get the error message, "iTunes has stopped working...A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Now, I don't have a problem with playing songs from my musical library. It is just the video or tv shows that will not play. I have tried to open a show (6) six times with the same message. Here is the report I got from the Problem Reports and Solution panel. Please help! Thank you.

  • Is there any way to edit a tv show downloaded from itunes in imovie or some other software?

    I have a project that I need to put a different sound track under a tv episode.   I downloaded an episode from itunes, but I can't manipulate it in imovie.   Is there a way to do this with another piece of software?   This is just for my own entertainment, not for any commercial purpose.

    If the TV Show is downloaded on your iPad, you don't need Wi-Fi to watch it.
