Problems reading downloaded TV show

When I try to "read" (via itunes or Apple Quicktime) a downloaded TV show, the images "lump" ie do not follow the right rythm and come as detached from the sound. I tried adjusting my screen definition, but I get the same problem. Help ?

What are your complete laptop specs? Also, this might help:

Problem with downloading TV show with error message 8008

I added money to my account then bought 2 songs. But when I bought a TV show video, error message 8008 pops up saying
[ There was a problem downloading "strange illusions/ celebracadabra, season 1/ celebracadabra"
Parts of the file seems to be corrupt. To redownload the file, choose "Check for Purchases" at the Store menu ]
Now I already did that but the message doesn't change. Is there a problem with my computer or the file? And do I get my money back if I can't get all of it downloaded?
Thank you

Contact iTunes Store support:-
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/browser/
State the Category as "Downloading" and the Sub-Category as "I continually receive an error message..."
Then explain the issue to them and make sure you state the error code.

Problems with downloading TV shows

I purchased The walking dead Season 3 and it's not letting me download it. Everytime I try downloading it, I get err = -3259. Help, please.

Use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.

Problems with downloaded TV show.

OK so yesterday I bought the 1st season of Lost on itunes. However, when I played the 1st episode (I tried it on both itunes itself and the QuickTime player), the audio was about 1 second out of sync from the video. I'm not sure whether this is the case with all the episodes or just this one, but I will test this.
So what I want to know is: can I fix this, or, if not, can I re-download a fixed version?
Thanks this in advance

genre has nothing to do with it..find the file go to get info>go to options and on the pull down menu change it to a movie press ok.then put it on your ipod..tell me if it works

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?

The vCard must not be a compatible format. (Unfortunately, there are multiple formats.)
Often your carrier can transfer contacts between devices from different manufacturers. Try visiting your carrier's retail outlet and see if they can do this for you.

I bought a pdf book last year and had no problem reading it for a few months then all of a sudden I could no longer open it and to this day. Any other pdf download off internet I can still open and read, except for that particular book. Operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium, Adobe Reader XI 11.0.07. When trying to open file I get msg "You did'nt login or your session has expired. Please log in to read this document for the first time". (Like I said I have read it before). So I log in but that prompts me to give the name of the file I want to export or convert to Word or something else, which is not what I want to do of course. I have not purchased any service from Adobe or Acrobat as I only need to read. Thanks for your help..

You don't need Adobe AIR to download or install Adobe Reader.

I downloaded tv shows from the itunes store but they wont play. itunes closes and it says its encountered a problem.

My downloaded tv shows won't play. Itunes just closes.

Let's try the following user tip with that one:
iTunes for Windows 10.7.0.21: "iTunes has stopped working" error messages when playing videos, video podcasts, movies and TV shows

Why doesn't the new i-tunes allow me to save partial downloads of shows?

at my home base i start to download a show but then i receive a network error. the download starts all over. i go to another city for business, use the internet access but i-tunes allows me to pause and resume my download of shows. this question may have been answered but i am totally stymied. why did they change i-tunes? before you could pause and resume. i live in indonesia so downloading is often interrupted, thus always having to restart my downloads.
pc Windows XP Pro

Please, I am a travelling consultant and have the same problem, I just recently bought 24 season 6 and cannot download it. ITunes must have understood this and thought of a way to save partial downloads so in time you could complete the full download. Please can someone answer this question?
Thanks.

Anyone else have this problem?
Purchased version of Windows 32 bit version of Acrobat XI update will not install properly or work.
First error info message is as per title after initial red screen which only appears once.
Second error info message is verify operation failed.
2 downloads, 3 installs and 2 repairs produce same result.
Adobe Australia called three times on 1800614863 but only automated selections 322323 made and transfer promised.
First call at 0901 local time.
All calls placed on hold first two timed out.
31 minutes into third call got an answer from a man in India.
In answer to my question:
Are you receiving reports of problems installing purchased upgrade versions of Acrobat XI Pro?
The answer was No.
He took details of messages and offered to help but I declined.
I have purchased and used all Acrobat Pro upgrades since 6.
Complete installation attempted.
Being done on a clean install of Windows XP SP3 on an OQO02 with only other program installed Office 2007 SBE.
Message was edited by: OQOroger to reflect inability to connect to seller Adobe Australia. Also Adobe site can't stay on Australia but reverts to USA. Full price of $A282 paid. USA purchasers only pay $US199 ($A191.57 at present exchange rates.) Credit card account already debited for purchase made yesterday. Subject line corrected 'as' changed to 'was'.
Message was edited by: OQOroger Corrected the price paid and currency conversion amount to show extra paid by Australians for 'local' support (from India). Added 'Message -' to title to make it less cryptic.
Message was edited by: OQOroger Typical setup installation results in same problems except
'There was a problem reading this document (57)'
window does not appear.
First window displaying and asking for acceptance of license conditions has no bottom section when first displayed so there is no way to accept these conditions except to close this window (confirm window appears) and launch program again when bottom panel is displayed.

Despite my advice of some of the many faults I have experienced with Acrobat XI Pro, Adobe support has never asked me to provide a 'Systems Report' which is available under the 'Help' tab.
This report indicates:

I can easily see 2 matters which an inexperienced support desk staff member could home in on.
Acrobat XI Pro system requirements include
1024x768 screen resolution and
Internet Explorer 7, 8, 9, or 10; Firefox Extended Support Release; Chrome
Well my OQO report above includes
Display Detail:
   Screen Width: 800
   Screen Height: 480
and leaves blank
Default Browser:
(actually Firefox 17.0.1)
Yet 'Firefox Extended Support Release' is described by
Mozilla:
'Who is it not for?
Individual users who always want the latest features, performance enhancements and technologies in their browser without waiting for them to become available in ESR several development cycles later.'

(I did not bother installing plug-ins and deactivated installation before removal of program.)
With 5 installs producing the same error reports, I am convinced Acrobat XI Pro won't work for me on my computers and have little confidence of useful support from Adobe.
THERE ARE SO MANY GLARING PROBLEMS WITH MY INSTALLATIONS WITH THE SUPPORT DESK'S RESPOSES UNHELPFUL AND UNINFORMED. I REALLY DON'T ENJOY DOING ADOBE'S QUALITY CONTROL FOR THEM FOR FREE, BUT I CONTINUE TO POST HERE IN THE HOPE THAT SOMEONE WITH REAL AUTHORITY WILL EVENTUALLY TAKE NOTICE AND ARANGE A FIX OF THE PROBLEMS.

Adobe support to date has been of no use and their billing practices unreasonably expensive.

and the Internet connection is good. It just no longer shows options for tv shows except for my tv shoes (already downloaded). what is going on?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check your store location is set correctly, if this doesn't help, try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a 30 seconds.

I get a connection timed out error when trying to connect to the itunes store, if I have pending downloads they show up and I can download, also I was able to access my account, yet I can't access other parts of the store, I am in greece on a macbook pro

I am from the states and am in Greece on vacation. I have a good wifi connection yet keep getting a connection timed out error when I try to access the itunes store. It is funny because pending downloads show up in the cue, and they download no problem. I can also open my account. When I try to go the the movies or music section of the stor though it just times out. I tried updating to the latest itunes software and restarting, also I checked all the proxy boxes in the network section of the settings then unchecked them all and restarted and it keeps doing the same thing. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Welcome to AD!
There's been plenty of posts about Norton & the removal tool here. Unfortunately many folks seem to not even know it comes pre-installed on most PCs! Even a trial version, never used or long since expired can cause problems - and not just with iTunes.
Anyone with a Dell, HP, Gateway EEE PC, Asus ..... what Windows PC manufacturer does NOT have this junk software pre-installed?
Almost all of them have made deals with Symantec to pre-install it.
Horrible, horrible software.
Anyway, glad you finally solved your problem.

HT204406 I can't seem to download songs from iTumes Match on my new iPhone 5. It still works fine on my iPad. Both are running ios6 and there is plenty of free space on the phone (20 GB or so). The download icon shows & flashes but nothing happens.

I am trying to play songs from iTunes Match on my phone everything is enabled. The songs and playlists show up but when I select one it won't download or play. The download status icon next to the song name flashes on and off but nothing happens. When I go to the iTunes Store the download section shows the same behavior - it flashes that there is 1 download continuously but nothing downloads. My iPad on the same network also running ios6 works fine. Any ideas?

Problem closed (although not resolved). After working with Apple support, no resolution was found. I asked for a refund of the iTunes match purchase price, which was granted. Interestingly the support tech, who was very nice if not particularly helpful from a technical point of view, spun the "resolution" of refunding my iTunes match purchase price as a positive one, here is a quote from the final email
"I'm glad to hear that you're not having issues with the songs you've purchased. Nothing makes Apple happier than to hear that our customers concerns have been rectified."
It is notable that I never had an issue downloading music directly purchased thru the iTunes store, the only issue that existed was downloading songs that I ripped from my CD collection and "matched".
I'm happy that I received my money back, however I wish that the iTunes Match service worked for me (I was looking forward to this service). I'm most upset at the time I wasted trying to fix this problem.
I'll now download music the old fashioned way: syncing with iTunes directly.
