Purchase playback

for some reason my recent itunes music purchases have been playing in my itunes, what is the problem?

Your post doesn't make sense. Don't you want your purchases to playback in iTunes?

Apple TV Movie Purchases Playback Support

I have a 3rd generation Apple TV. I have purchased and retned dozens of movies; and never experienced any issues when viewing them up until recently (all of them on 1080p). I have Verion Fios, and recent speed test clock my speed at over 50mbps. The last two movies I purcahsed, Captain Phillips and Ender's Game loaded immediately, but soon after stoppped to buffer/load. I have rebooted both my ATV and Fios Router; still not easy fix. Thoughts?

ITunes Store Purchase Playback Issues since 9.0.1.79 Updgrade

Since I upgraded to version 9.0.1.79 last week, all my iTunes Store purchases are warbled when I try to play them in ITunes. CD burns work fine - just my 1000+ purchases won't play properly. I reapplied update but no better. I'm afraid to sync my iPod and I'm getting angry. Anyone with similar issues?

Sorry, it was 9.1.0.79 upgrade

How to sync iTunes libraries on multiple machines without copying music

Background:
I have 4 machines running iTunes 9, all authorized with the same account. All music is on a networked storage device (NSA). Each iTunes points to the NSA for music files. Each user on each machine has their own local iTunes library for individualized playlists, etc. When music is purchased, regardless of machine, it is automatically downloaded onto the NSA. We have deselected the Advanced preference "Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library". Our goal is to have one live copy of our music rather than multiple copies sprinkled about all 4 machines. We do periodic backups of the NSA.
Question:
How do I get all the iTunes user libraries on all 4 machines to automatically reflect new music purchases? The library of the purchaser is updated just fine, but no one else's is. The Home Sharing Settings option updates the library, but it also copies over the music, defeating the purpose of one copy.
Thanks in advance!

When I first moved to OS X I decided that all of my/our music should be in one library, with one Apple ID for purchasing/playback and iPod syncing, located someplace other than each user's home folder. Using an alias of the destination folder worked as long as we were all on one machine.
Later when we acquired a second machine the setup was similar, except that the library was on an external HD attached to the newer/faster machine and accessed over our home network. The drawback of this method is that the machine with the library on it has to be up and running (of course).
We've finally moved further into the digital world by purchasing a network drive (NAS to be precise - a My Book World II for those who wish to know), upgraded our router and network switch to GB, and have a third iMac on its way (thank you eBay).
All of our music (the library we started years ago), all of our pictures, and other miscellaneous things reside on the NAS, which is also used for TimeMachine backups (on the non public volume). The idea being that any of us can access any of the media or documents as we need or want to.
Apparently (or I've missed something simple) Apple, in their wisdom, doesn't believe that a setup like ours (and apparently others as well) should exist. That each user and/or each machine, should have their/its very own music library that no one else can have FULL access to.
Home Sharing doesn't allow what I/we've been setting up from the first day we added music to our library. Sure it lets everyone with their own library to listen to other's library's that are up and running (i.e. the machine is on, and iTunes is running).
What we want to do is have all of our machines (the two, soon to be three, iMac's and one PC running XP) access the *same library* with full read/write/burn access AT THE SAME TIME! Hence the logic in purchasing a NAS. What we can't do is have iTunes running on more than ONE machine at a time since the other network users/machines receive this message:
The iTunes Library file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file.
Which is certainly not the case since each user/machine can access, read, write, and burn from the above library at will as long as they are the only person doing so.
Changing the permissions on the library file doesn't stick (probably because its on the NAS), otherwise I would have done that and you wouldn't be reading this.
Thanks for any help anyone can give.

HT204370 I recently purchased a movie at 1080p and when I went to view it, I received a message stating 1080p is too large for playback. How can I re-download the movie at 720?

I recently purchased a movie at 1080p and when I went to view it, I received a message stating 1080p is too large for playback. How can I re-download the movie at 720?

Not sure what happend there. But ATV only streams, no HD so if you leave it too long, the whole download gets lost.
Check with iTS.

ITunes purchased shows do not playback just a black screen

My wife and son are leaving tomorrow to ME. We purchased ~1$12 worth of shows. They playback in iTunes application but do not playback on her iPod video 30GB and she is running 1.1.2 firmware.
You can select the video and feel the drive queueing it up but just a black screen is displayed. I have other videos I have converted myself and they work fine.
Any ideas on what causes this?

QT 7 update requires Pro + MPeg2 playback purchase?

Hello, I am caught in that awful update quandry - if I now update QT to version 7 and purchase the Pro key, do I also have to purchase AGAIN the MPeg2 playback tool? I have already purchased this TWICE already.
Even though Apple state that the MPeg2 playback tool will work with QT 6 or 7 it doesn't actually answer my question. I can't afford just now to update QT to vers. 7 Pro and find that MPegStreamclip and other MPeg2 dependant software no longer works.
The cost might look puney in America but in Australia we are not so rich and the dollars are double - so having to update Pro and the MPeg2 playback tool is actually quite expensive, particularly when you think how much it cost to buy Tiger and iLife 06 and it is these two actions that have put me in this postion - SPEND SPEND...Ugh, where's the money?

Moving from version 6 to QT 7 requires a new Pro purchase.
The MPEG-2 Playback Component will continue to work if its version number (Get Info) is 6.4. If for some reason you have version 6.3 the update is free.
Move the QuickTime Player Pro 6.5.2 app that you currently own from your Applications folder to your Desktop before you install version 7. This will allow you to run two versions of the Player app on top of the new version 7 frameworks. The older one will remain "Pro". No money spent.

If I am using my Apple TV without hdmi cords do I always lose hdcp playback? If not, which adapters or cords must I purchase so my Apple TV still works optimally?

Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
RESPONSES:
1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC. I simply used the same iTunes login and account. I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store. If I click "Download Previous Purchases" text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered. I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam. Good response for you. Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome. I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
QUESTIONS:
3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download? Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU...
I work in the computer support section for the Military. The only problem is we use Windows , lol. Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover. I go back next month though I hope. But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein. Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself.

I purchased and successfully downloaded Caravan Palace - Caravan Palace and Panic. Both albums skip and cutout during playback. Q: what's happening and why?

I purchased and successfully downloaded Caravan Palace - Caravan Palace and Panic. Both albums skip and cutout during playback. Q: what's happening and why?

Sounds like a corrupt download.
From iPad:
Delete the albums: swipe you finger across and tap delete
Make sure you have a good internet connection & re-download: Open iTunes app > More > Purchased
From computer:
Delete the albums: Select > right-click > delete
Go to iTunes Store > Purchased (in Quick Links on the right)

QT7 and MPEG2 playback component - upgrade or purchase?

I upgraded to QT 7 but now I can't play back MPEG2. Is there an upgrade for the MPEG2 playback component or do I have to purchase a new copy?

If you moved up from version 6 then yes and you can get a free upgrade.
Log in at the Apple Store using the same account ID as your original purchase and click the downloadable software purchase link to see.

Can I playback a movie that i purchased in iTunes on my MBP connected to a projector with a DVI cable?

I am trying to playback a movie that i purchased in iTunes with my Macbook Pro while it is connected to a projector with a DVI cable. It starts but after a few seconds it will stop the playback. What do I need to do to fix this problem?

I don't know your configuration or the source of the issue. As long as it is normal playback it should work. I have run output from a MacBook Pro to a TV set with HDMI and as far as the computer is concerned it is simply playing back the medium and doesn't care how I have the output rigged. The TV simply acts as an oversize monitor.

Jerky Playback of iTunes purchased TV Shows (specifically: HEROES)

Not yet another jerky/playback thread?
Well, I feel compelled to do so since I have reviewed all of the jerky/playback threads that I could find and I have tried most, if not all, of the suggestions. Namely:
1. This thread: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303706
2. Uninstalled Quicktime and reinstalled (ver. 7.1.6)
3. Setting "waveout" for audio.
4. Tried several bit settings for audio (16, 24) along with sampling rates (44000, 48000).
5. Tried two different versions of NVidia Forceware (ver 97.46, ver 158.18)
6. Two different sets of drivers for SATA
The thing that gets me is, I've been watching HEROES all season without incident. In fact, I preferred purchasing each episode and watching it in iTunes as opposed to watching the episodes in my BeyondTV DVR (computer based). One has to conclude that SOMETHING on the system has shifted to affect this change (within the last week), although I'm out of ideas beyond the 6 listed above. I'm tempted to boot into my XP partition to see if everything is fine over there but that would mean I would have to go through the as-of-yet-unfamiliar-to-me process of deauthorizing this "computer" and hoping that my purchases shows re-download. I did this once and I lost the first 6 episodes of Heroes and even "redownloading purchased" media did not bring them back. That's a separate issue that I need to contact Apple about.
So...any ideas? Any information that I'm lacking here to help troubleshoot?

Update:
I booted over into Windows XP (SP2) and everything is fine over there. So, that leads me to the strong inclination that there is something up with the configuration on this side of the divide (Windows Vista 32-bit).
I'm now beginning to suspect some recent tweaks that were made via the nTune application. For those that don't know, nTune is a utility that allows tweaking of nVidia hardware (nForce, n4 - mobo, PCI bus, SATA, video, etc.) What I'm currently trying to research is getting the automatic tweaks that I enabled to rollback to their default settings. So far, I haven't figured out how to do this. There is an option to load a "baseline" profile from within nTune's menu however the behaviors that I noticed post-tweak are still there (difficult to explain but there are indicators that the new settings are still in effect).
I'll post back here if I am successful in rolling back the nTune tweaks and see if that makes any difference with the video playback problems I am experiencing.

I just purchased Duet 2 and am using it with Garageband 11. I am getting iTunes playbacks through the headphone monitors with Duet 2 but can get no guitar or vocals recorded. I get no volume

I just purchased Apogee Duet 2 and am using it with Garageband 11. I am getting iTunes playbacks through the headphone monitors as per quick startup directions. When I open Garageband I get the same identical stack of guitar and on pedal displayed. I get no sound from the guitar. I believe I have the set up exactly as per diagram and cannot figure things out. I am relatively green at this - my best intentioned purchase now feels like a nightmare!! Help!!

Yes, you can upgrade to Snow Leopard:

I purchased a iBook G4 with OS 10.5.6. I imported .mov files (shot in High Definition) -- I hear audio in playback but no picture. What's wrong?

What version of iMovie is this? Where did this media come from? It's probably in a format or codec not supported by your computer.
