Please help. I recently upgraded to IOS 8.2 and i realised
that all my downloaded videos from itunes have somewhat vanished. I see the
cloud sign with the downward arrow. However they won’t play, i am being
required to DOWNLOAD them again. This is both in my iPhone and Ipad. Is there
any other way to go around this? As I do not want to download a second time,
that would cost me more money.

Hello ogojohn,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
The   icon indicates an item that is available for download. This is usually because it has been downloaded previously by the account you are logged in under and will not be charge again for the download. See the following article, while it references iTunes for Mac and not iOS, it is the same. 
iTunes 12 for Mac: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store

    PLEASE HELP ME I AM FACING A PROBLEM
    My name is Ameer.
    I watch youtube videos from ipad2 ( safari )
    today for my first time, when i run a video and i want to pause it, i touch the screen where the video is playing to reach the pause botton that is located on a bar under the video which appears when i touch the screen. Today every time i touch the screen nothing happens and i cannt pause the video nor adjusting its quality.
    So plese help me fixing this problem as soon as posible.
    Regards

    Same problem on my ipad mini, running ios 6.0.2.
    A bit more info:
    -tried using YouTube in Safari on another ipad. Worked fine.
    Tried reboot (sleep + home buttons for 15 seconds). Didn't fix.
    -tried logging out of my YouTube account, thinking the problem was tied to my settings. Didn't fix.
    -tried uninstalling all apps I downloaded since the last time YouTube worked properly. Didn't fix.
    -tried watching a video in desktop mode. Can tap video screen to bring up pause okay in that mode.
    There are work arounds, but the thing I want to know is why YouTube doesn't work in Safari as of a couple of days ago, and is it indicative of another more serious problem with my ipad.

  • I just bought a macbookpro. And trying to sync my iCloud music to my iTunes.  I've already "authorized" this computer to my iCloud account but It still won't play my music that I've oreviously purchased. What do I do?

    I just bought a macbookpro. And trying to sync my iCloud music to my iTunes.  I've already "authorized" this computer to my iCloud account but It still won't play my music that I've previously purchased. I know this isn't a matter of having tI many devices on one account because I only have my phone and now this laptop on it.   What do I do?

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.

  • Supposedly you can play or download songs using the icloud download button, a cloud icon with a downward arrow inside. But nothing happens when I click or double click on it.

    supposedly you can download or play songs using the icloud download button, a cloud icon with a downward arrow inside. But nothing happens when I click or double click on it.

    You have to have music in your iCloud account to do that...when you open the Music app on your iPad, for example, you can access all music from iCloud that you have already placed in the iCloud or associated with iCloud.  That is not for downloading music you have not already purchased or downloaded.

    Hi Paula2808,
    I’m sorry you are having trouble starting up your iMac, that must be quite frustrating. There are some troubleshooting steps I would suggest in order to get you up and running again.
    First I suggest using the steps in this article for the Apple logo appearing -
    Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup

    If things still are not working correctly, you may want to continue with the steps in this article -

    No, it does not.  It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer.  The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

    Are they selected to sync?  Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

    What does that have to do with syncing content to the device?  FYI, nothing.

  • I have downloaded videos from iTunes but they will not play- message says unable to complete this operation.

    Why are the videos I have downloaded not able to play.when I go to play them the message says unable to complete this operation

    The iTunes Store will direct you to the same article. As Hackintosh said, first delete the track from iTunes, allowing it to move the track file to the trash. Then in iTunes on your Mac, sign into your iTunes Store account and go here:
    In the window you'll be taken to, make sure that the Music tab and "not on this computer" are selected, then locate the defective track in the list and click this button next to the track name:

  • Downloaded videos from itunes onto pc but they wont sync onto ipod

  • After buying and downloading videos from itunes, how can I burn them to a DVD that will play in a standard DVD player?  I have tried burning the playlist from itunes, and the disc would not play in anything I put it into.

    Out of excitement, I bought both seasons of the tv show "Sym Bionic Titan" from the itunes store, since I can't find it anywhere else, in hopes of being able to burn them to dvds and watch them.  When I burned the disc from itunes, it would not play in any player I put it in.  Not my dvd player, not my ps3, nothing.  So the only place I can watch the show is on my computer, which is definitely not what I had in mind when I purchased it.  Is there a way to burn the videos to a dvd that will play in a dvd player?

    Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

  • I have a MacBook Pro and one day, my dock disappeared and so did the time, the battery percentage, and the spotlight!  The left side of my top bar is still there showing the Apple sign with the application that is open and other options. I need help!!

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

    If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
    Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
    I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself.

  • I have an iPod touch 4th generation and when I try to upgrade to iOS 5.1.1 it says that all my apps will delete but I dont want them too, what should I do?

    I don't want to lose all my apps but I want to upgrade my iPod. Is there any other way to upgrade it but not lose all my apps, and if so what is it?

    - Update on the computer you sync with that has allthe apps and other synced media in its iTunes library.
    - If on another computer
    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like on of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The iPod will be updated too.
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

  • Help!  Cannot download videos from iTunes

    I can purchase and transfer music all day long, but when I try to purchase videos, I get an Error message -- no code or number --- and it says try again later under advanced, check music purchases. When I do that, the same thing happens. The error message says cannot write to disk or something like that.
    Thoughts?????

    Hmm... I know this has to do with a corrupt folder or a folder without permissions. I forgot exactly how to fix it B Noir or Katrina will hopefully post they been at this longer than me But you could go here and read thru afew things and email the music store about this issue here http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/video/

  • I have little exclamation points next to some of my songs and they won't play how do I get them to play?, I have little exclamation points next to some of my songs and they won't play how do I get them to play?

    I have exclamation points next to some of my songs and they won't play...how do I get them to play?

    I am not an expert but here's my two cents:
    The exclamation point means itunes cannot find the music file in order to play it. There are several possible reasons for this, including but not limited to changing the name or location of your music library/songs, or storing them on an external hard drive or device that is not currently attached. The solutions for these are different so let me know if any of these apply and we can troubleshoot.
