Playing TV show on 2 different Macs

I recently purchased episodes of a TV Show through iTunes and downloaded them on my Macbook. I wanted to play these on a different Mac and copied the file over to that computer. When I tried to play this on the second computer (Macbook Pro with latest version of iTunes) it said the computer needs to be Authorized, which it already is. It then comes up with the message: 'this computer is already authorized'. It then looks to be playing the episode but with no sound or visuals. I have paid for this episode and have authorization to play - so I am not sure what is happening. Every time I try to play the episode it asks to Authourize the computer

See if this helps:

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your Mac? Have you tried a different USB cable?

    Is it because the new itunes looks different.

    Ctrl + click on the songs you want to group - then right click and click get info and it will ask you if you want to get info for multiple items click YES then under album name it whatever you want and them songs will be grouped into 1 album.
    Mac:
    Same procedure but hit SHIFT instead of CTRL.
    Actually, it's right click or ctrl click, same as windows.

  • My Samsung External 1tb 3.0 Hard drive is no longer showing up on my mac?

    I've tried it on my friends mac and it shows up straight away. Any ideas?
    It's a Samsung USB 3.0 1tb. All my other External Hard drives work fine. Just this one wont show up on my mac anymore.
    Like i mentioned before it does show up on my friends macbook.
    Thanks Dom

    ~~It's just strange that it reads fine on a different macbook.
    Superficially its very strange, however Ive seen same countless times, minor power diff. between Macs on a dying SATA card.   Thats why its called "haunted (external) hard drive syndrome", .. 2 symptoms are illogical diagnostically
    The 50 cent part inside most external HD is a nightmare.
    If you had a new external enclosure, diagnosing same would take less than 2 mins.

  • Cant play tv shows on ipad after downloading just get a black screen

    My first generation ipad will not play tv shows that I have purchased from Itunes. Once they are downloaded on to the ipad I just get a black screen when I try to play them. If I restore the ipad I can SOMETIMES watch them for a short while before it reverts back to a black screen. So Frustrating!!

    Hello LBV123,
    The next step would be to report the issue to the folks in the iTunes Store, as detailed in the article below.

  • How to unify multiple iPhoto libraries from different Mac OS versions?

    I am pretty good with the Mac itself and have been a long time user. I knew full well acumulating multiple iphoto libraries in older backups (intead of building up on one) was not a great idea but for several reasons I have had to live that way. Now is the time to clean it all up once and for all and I need some wisdom;
    -I got my external drive as my new iphoto library now. It's being used, there are already albums in it and it's ready to accept older libraries.
    -What I want is that the older libraries (about 10 of them from different Mac OS versions) to show up in the new external drive as they looked in iphot back then. As albums in other words.
    -I do not want them imported in a single folder that's full of photos.
    Any help is much appreciated,
    Cheers.
    M

    If you imported a previous iphoto library into your new one, it created a folder inside the iphoto called "imported".
    That was the problem. One should never import one library into another.  Only iPhoto 6 libraries and earlier can be imported into a library now.  With the introduction of iPhoto 7 the library was changed from a folder to a package which can't be imported by the current iPhoto version.
    To use an older library with a new iPhoto version one just opens that library with iPhoto and lets iPhoto update it as necessary.  No importing necessary.
    Also you can use the paid verson of  iPhoto Library Manager  to merge those additional libraries into your current working library (be sure to have a current backup of your current library before merging).  What will be included are albums, Events, keywords, titles, descriptions, places.  Books, slideshows, calendars in the other libraries will be copied over as just albums.

  • Missing files using the same library on two different macs and other minor problems

    Hi everybody,
    I'm working on a long documentary and I'm new to FCPX (coming from Avid NC and Edius)...I have and external HD where I stored all the media I'm working with (about 1/2T - 1000 clips)...The library (about 100gb) is stored on the internal drive of my iMac and into the iCloud.
    Yesterday, I received my new MacBook and today I tried to work on it. I followed this steps: I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with, I put it on the same folder (movies) it was stored on my iMac and I connected my external HD with all the media...Results? All the clips where gone and the red missing file warning was all over the place.
    FIRST QUESTION: How can I work on both computer overcoming this missing files problem? I know I should have put the library on the same external drive but It was a move aiming to
    SUB QUESTION 1:
    I went back to my iMac and everything worked fine except for a warning about one of my events (the exclamation point) as you can see from this pic:
    I tried to relink the file...but no files to be linked popped up in the relink file window....HOW CAN I KNOW what's wrong in that event in order to fix it?
    SUB QUESTION 2:
    I checked the Library info and - as you can see in the pic below - there are 43mb of media in my internal HD...is this maybe the problem preventing me from working on different macs? I tried to consolidate everything to the external HD but still the 43mb thing persist in being on the internal HD. How can I find where exactly it is located? How can I move it to the external HD given that the consolidate option isn't working?
    Thank you in advance for your help
    Nico

    1) Don't know why this is happening. It may have something to do with
    I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with
    I'm not clear what procedure you're using here. Using a cloud for storage might change some file tags. Generally users I think keep the library on the same drive as the media, keeping the library backups on the system. There is no real benefit in keeping the media in a separate location. Often users will keep the library in the same folder as the media. It makes backing up using tools like Carbon Copy Cloner very efficient.
    1a) This can be difficult to find as there sometimes is no obvious indicator. It might be a missing element in a compound clip, a missing or altered layer in a graphics file, a missing font, a missing effect. These will show up inside the item involved, but may not be apparent in the browser. A missing transition for instance will not be seen until you skim over the project or try to export it.
    2) The 43 MB is a small amount of optimized media. This never prevents relinking. The library is always looking for original media, or proxy media if you're in proxy playback. It never looks for optimized media. If it has it, it uses it, if it doesn't, it uses the original media. If you are using original/optimized playback, you must have the original files. The optimized files are not enough.

  • On my screen my iChat name shows as my AIM handle, but other people are showing a completely different name. Anyone know how to correct this?

    On my screen my iChat name shows as my AIM handle, but other people are showing a completely different name. Anyone know how to correct this?

    Hi,
    I still have you in my Buddy list.
    Whereas you were showing just plain "Norma"  you are now showing "Norma Howe" in Capital Letters.
    The only way I know to achieve that at my end is to View any Display Name that was set up or Add those "First Name, Last Name" Details to my address Book and list your Screen Name against them.
    IF the AIM Settings Display Name items does not List NORMA HOWE and in fact lists something else the only thing I can think of is another App allows the Display name to be set from there and this is overriding the AIM Setting info.
    I fired up an old version of AIM for Mac (version 4.7 from 2005) on my G4 computer running Leopard.
    This Identifies Buddies that have entered Display Names  (puts them in the Quotes as in "NORMA HOWE")
    In the Preferences of this version of AIM for Mac it has a Sign On tab.
    This has a box to enter how you show up (i.e. the Display Name)  This version hints at adding Capitalisation and Spaces to your Screen Name.
    Actually when I tried to change it to anything this version refused to let me.
    So I changed my regular Name to "Ralph Johns r"
    This however does not change the AIM settings page
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    This would suggest that if the AIM setting page does not have this info then it is an AIM app somewhere.
    Boot Camp and  windows Version ?
    AIM for Mac (Any versions) ?  (I am prettry sure it will be  alter version than mine as the Self Listing shows the changed Name but still lists it as the Screen Name in the info Screen)

  • After Effects CC 2014 plays/renders incorrect audio for mp3 (Mac OS X Yosemite)

    Hi,
    I'm translating the audio for a number of animations made in AE. Sometimes when the mac users import new audio in another language, AE plays and renders a totally different mp3 file than what has been imported. It is playing another piece of translated audio from another folder but I can't tell where from (as it's in another language).
    When I click reveal in Finder, the track in Finder plays the correct audio.
    When I re-import after purging and emptying caches, AE still plays the wrong audio.
    I found a work around where if I copy and re-name the audio and import that it works. The problem is, we can't tell when this has occurred until reviews have been performed and it's costing us a lot of time in re-renders and fixing.
    Does anyone know what causes this problem? Has anyone even encountered it?
    Any advice is much appreciated.

    Does anyone know what causes this problem?
    Sure: You are using MP3 files. AE never has been good with them. Convert them to WAV/ AIFF.

  • Plug and Play not showing up on desktop - camera, jump drive, etc.

    Hi all:
    On my Macbook Pro, none of the so-called "plug and play" devices show up on the desktop as they normally would on a Mac computer. I tried my ipod, camera, and usb jump drive. Is there a setting that I could have set on to make it like this??
    Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Go to Finder>Preferences>General, and you will find some boxes to check so that external devices will show up on the desktop. I'm not sure your camera would show up on the desktop--but it will appear in iPhoto if you want to put your pictures in iPhoto. Your iPod and jump drive will show up for sure.
    Good luck!

  • Missing pages when iWeb editing on two different Macs

    Hi
    I have an ibook and today I designed a simple iWeb page and uploaded it from work (it really is very simple).
    When I came home is used my iMac to run iWeb (don't worry I have a family/5 machine licence) but nothing came up..
    Is there no way to edit the same page and more importantly see the page in iWebs site organiser if the sites/pages are produced on different macs?

    Graham,
    In order to be able to edit on more than one Mac, you will need to copy the Domain file that resides in ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb. That Domain file contains all the elements of all of your sites that you have done in iWeb. It's not accessible online via .Mac like when using Homepage. So if you make changes from computer A, you'll need to copy that file to computer B before being able to edit the site. Then you will need to copy that file back to computer A so you have the latest version of your site.
    This makes being able to edit ones sites from multiple computers a pain in the rear. I tried it today by copying the Domain package from my home computer to the G5 I use at work. I made one small change to the site and published it. However, I could not get the changed page to show. The old page kept coming up. I duplicated the change once I was back home and published. Everything was fine. I don't know what the problem was but if it is a consistent problem, it will make updating from multiple computers go from being a pain to being impossible.

  • TS2972 Can't play TV shows with Home Sharing

    I have home sharing turned on on both my home computer (a PC) and my Mac. When I try to play music, it works just fine, but when I try to play TV shows, all I get is a black screen. Help!

    We are having this exact same problem - started happening after we did the software update tonight. Have tried restarting, resetting, and all the other obvious tricks. It seemed to work for a minute when we used the iPad ATV remote, but that stopped working after a couple of minutes too.  We can play previews, and iTunes library stuff, but not movies or TV shows purchased via the ATV. We've got a new episode of game of thrones sitting there that we can't play - very frustrating!
