Problems Downloading TV Show - Time Remaining Increasing

I recently bought a 2.45 GB TV show episode off of the iTunes store. Unfortunately, it is taking an extremely long time to download. After downloading for several hours it has only accomplished about 100 KB, and it shows no signs of speeding up. Even worse, the time remaining keeps increasing, and is currently surpassing 2,000 hours. Once it reaches around 10,000 hours, it resets and begins increasing once again. Past TV episode downloads have gone smoothly and efficiently. Can anyone help diagnose this issue and possibly solve it?
Thanks very much in advance!

Thanks for your response. The TV show and Movie's sizes seem to correspond with how large they are supposed to be (as stated on the iTunes store).
I have been able to download songs normally, but I havn't attempted any new TV shows/movies.

When I try to install "Addblock Plus", a pop-up box displays "Add-on downloading", and "unknown time remaining - 0 bytes (0 bytes / sec)". My local area connection status box shows that it is connected but that nothing is being received.

I am using Firefos 9.0.1 under Windows XP. I use Avast anti-virus. My Add-ons bar is empty. I have not initiated the installation of any plug-ins. Downloads keeps no record of my attempts.

Thank you for your interest mha007. This is an update on my evenings activities so far.
I have done that trouble shooting with results, as follows:
Started in safe mode
In Tools/Options/Advanced/General, I unchecked "Use hardware acceleration when available"
Clicked on Tools/Add-ons
"Get add-ons" displayed "Loading" indefinitely
All 5 Extensions are dis-abled: it suggested that I remove "Microsoft.net framework assistant 1.2.1" & "Test pilot 1.2".
On "Microsoft.net framework assistant 1.2.1" I Clicked "Remove". It remained but with version 0.0.0.
On "Test pilot 1.2" I clicked "Remove". It disappeared.
The single Appearance "Default 9.0.1" is disabled
None of the 16 plug-ins are disabled.
I clicked on Add-ons and "Get add-ons" displayed "Loading"
Several minutes later I found that, "Add-ons" had loaded.
I clicked on "Most popular" and then on "Add to Firefox " within "Adblock plus"
A pop-up box displayed "Add-on downloading", and "unknown time remaining - 0 bytes (0 bytes / sec)".
Within a minute, a Firefox "Alert" pop-up window opened with the message: "An error occurred during a connection to www.mozilla.org:443 / The OCSP server experienced an internal error. / (Error code: sec_error_ocsp_server_error)"
I bookmarked the "Most popular add-ons page"
I closed Firefox and opened it again - not in safe mode.
Clicked on Tools/Add-ons. "Get add-ons" displayed "Loading".
In Extensions, on "Microsoft.net framework assistant 1.2.1" I Clicked Disable", and Restart Firefox
I clicked on Tools/Add-ons. "Get add-ons" displayed "Loading". Message displayed "Connected to services.add-ons.mozilla.org. Waited.
10 minutes later I opened a new tab and clicked on the "Most popular add-ons page" bookmark. Message displayed "Connected to add-ons.mozilla.org". Waited.
15 minutes later, neither of the tabs had responded. I re-started firefox in safe mode
I clicked on Tools/Add-ons. "Get add-ons" displayed "Loading". Message displayed "Connected to static-ssl-cdn.addons.mozill.net"
Using the new tab from above which was not active on restart, I clicked on the "Most popular add-ons page" bookmark.
The bookmarked page opened. I clicked on "Add to Firefox " within "Adblock plus"
Again, a pop-up box displayed "Add-on downloading", and "unknown time remaining - 0 bytes (0 bytes / sec)". (No Alert this time).
I don't know what to read into all of this. Any advice on what the next best thing to do would be appreciated.

Problems downloading television shows.

So, since Tuesday, I've had problems downloading TV shows. I tried downloading two shows that I have season passes for on Tuesday, and one of them dissipeared and the other went into where it should be in the TV shows section, but had it's time listed as "not available", and when I selected it iTunes crashed. I went into the files and tried to find them, it turned out that they were still in the "downloads" folder, I deleted them, and tried downloading a free video from the iTunes store, and it didn't work either. Oddly enough, songs and video podcasts do seem to download properly, but I haven't tried downloading games or movies, because I don't want to waste money.
Can anyone help me, please?

ITunes Music Progress Bar Fails to Show Time Remaining

I use iTunes for Windows. Suddenly, in the last two weeks, the progress bar on my iTunes screen has quit showing time remaining on a tune on the right-hand side of the bar. Throughout the tune, it shows only the full time of the tune. How can I change back to time remaining?

If I remember right in Qt before version 7 you could get time remaining. I'm 100% in saying version 7 dropped this...You can get time remaining in the info box...

Battery percentage indicator does not show time remaining in ML as it used to show in Lion!

Hi everyone!
I upgraded to ML and have noticed that the battery percentage indicator does not show the time remaining (charge). you need to actually click on it to see how much time the battery is going to last. OS X Lion did not have this problem.
Is it just for me or is it a bug that Apple needs to fix?!?

I am trying to install Creative Cloud on Mac. I downloaded the CCPackager and created a package. When I try to run the package, it freezes on install (technically it says it's still going while the Time Remaining increases constantly

The time actually ran up to 27hours remaining before I force quit it (it was installing for at least an hour already) I have tried this on iMacs running various versions of OSX including Maverick and Yosemite and they both have this issue. This is CC for Enterprise. The package included Photoshop, Bridge, Illustrator, InDesign, Muse, and After Effects. Here is the installer log:

Set the permissions for Everyone in the folder in which CCPackager created, to "Read/Write" enabled. This is strange since there is only an administrator account on the Mac (and that account already has read/write), but it seems to resolve the issue.

Share exporting...done..but showing time remaining

I shared a short video clip, sending it to DVD. It worked just fine, creating a short, plain jane dvd. The next morning I saw that FCP had a dialog box saying "Exporting 2 Output Files: Finished Disc 100% complete". and the grey barber pole was just continuing along. I'm not worried about it but just curious. Is this normal? One would expect it to disappear when all was done or ask if you wanted to share/burn another copy or something.

dreamer_tooms, welcome to the forum,
if you have the AC adapter attached it will only show %age charge level; remaining time is not a factor when AC is attached.
When running on battery you can right click the battery guage and choose between time and %age charge level, just left click which it should display.
Hope this helps

Podcast iphone app - today, slider showed time remaining and now it disappeared. WTH!?

I researched this issue on the Discussion board last night, and saw things were missing from my screen. Miraculously, this a.m., INDEED the slider and a Speed button were now visible on my Podcast app on my iPhone 4. NOW, these items have disappeared again! They are showing on the Music app. What happened ???

Found the answer!! Tap the top 1/3 of the screen and the timer, speed and Timer buttons all appear!!! Hope it helps someone else.

Show time remaining on alarmclock when it is set

Hello. Sorry in advance if this is the wrong part of the forums to post this.
I would just like to suggest a feature that I had on my old phone and that I am now missing on my Iphone 6.
When I set the alarm to wake me up at some point in the future it would be nice if the phone told me how long time there was till the alarm activates.
If i set it to 20.15 at 18.00 then it would be nice to see alarm in 2 hours and 15 minutes.
I hope this will be implemented soon.

Sounds like a goo idea but you are not talking to Apple here only other users.
You use use the Apple feedback forms Apple - Feedback to suggest this directly to Apple.

K9NGM-L Help!! The time keep increasing Banging head on wall

Ok here goes original problem was that the time kept increasing by about 10 mins a day. when going into the bios it has also changed by the same time as windows shows. these are the things ive tried so far:-
1. updated bios to the latest
2. changed motherboard battery
3. updated windows and reloaded windows to see if it was a software problem but still the same
4. tried taking internet time sync off and on but still does the same.
Im just banging my head on the wall now confusing me to hell. any ideas will be great.
Thanks in advance

I did a search on google and found this:-
"Windows XP updates your system clock via the internet (provided you are connected of course) every 7 days. If you want your clock updated more often, change the interval time like this:
Press win key+R and type regedit, then press enter.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services \W32Time\TimeProviders\NtpClient
Select "SpecialPollInterval"
Change decimal value from 604800 to what ever interval you want in seconds. for example: 172800 (2 days) or 86400 (1 day).
Save and exit."
Although this does not fix the cause of the problem you have, (you may have a faulty timing crystal) it should help.

HP G62 battery - time remaining never shown

Hi,
I have an HP G62 and am very pleased with it. However, there is one little annoyance in that in Windows 7, the battery percentage is always shown but never with an amount of time remaining. I also use Ubuntu, and the problem presents itself in more ways there:
The time remaining is never shown but the percentage is
In Gnome Power management, a 'rate' or 'voltage' is never shown - ie it's always zero
The 'Energy when full' and 'Energy (design)' figures change every reboot.
I read somewhere that a BIOS update may sort this issue but I've upgraded to F46 and still no progress. I've also done a full calibration of the battery and still it seems no operating system can read a discharge rate for the battery.
Other people have reported this as a bug in Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/661759 but I think it's more a hardware fault. Has anyone else experienced the issue and does anyone know of a fix?

I have an sd card and a cf card running ubuntu 10.10 on an external card reader. On an nc4400 and a tc4400 everything reads as it should in the power manager. The battery indicator at the top shows time remaining and the design capacity always stays the same.
I think a lot of the problem is in the bios in that it's the bios that allows the os to see the sensors. Over the years computer manufacturers have taken out a lot of options in the bios. I think that they think that we are too dumb to choose the right settings in the bios and that we cause a lot of warranty problems by changing settings in the bios. For instance virtualization.
That's kinda why I stay with the older machines, I like being able to change my settings. Plus, there's not a whole lot of modded bios out there for hp's because hp locks their bios down pretty tight. That's why we can't get a fan control to work like you can for thinkpads. I don't have any solutions for you but I do feel your pain. I would love to get a new machine, but I just don't trust them.
I don't think it's any kind of hardware problem though. I really think it's in the bios. You might try going on MyDigitalLife and poking around there, that would be the place to find a modded bios if there was one. Or maybe another solution.
Did someone help you? Pay it forward. Help someone else.
NC4400, TC4400 Win 7 Ultimate, xp pro, both dual boot

Hi..
Assuming you are using Safari ...
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Make sure to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

Why is a download update for 1 item increasing "time remaining" and is already over 2 hours?

I am not very adept at this stuff.

"Time remaining" is based on expecatations of internet speed. This expectation gets "smarter" as there is more data. So it seems that you must be on a very slow connection, or one that is much slower now than it was when the download started.
