Purchases made on Apple TV not showing up on my computer

I have had this problem before. I guess I need to stop buying movies on my Apple TV.  After I bought a movie on my Apple TV, I wanted to put it on my Macbook Pro to take with me. It is not in my movie folder. I have tried checking for available downloads in the store tab and nothing is found. I tired logging out and back in and still nothing, Any ideas? Like I said, I had this problem once before, but I can't remember what I did to remedy it.

Were all the purchases made using the same Apple ID? iTunes purchases are shared cross device via their servers. Home Sharing will only work if the media is on your computer and the ATV is viewing it, it won't work the other way round. If it was a movie, first, check the settings in the ATV and your iPad to ensure the Apple IDs match. Then, open the videos app on your iPad (blue clapper board), the movies should be there, if not, go to the Store by tapping it in the top left of the app. Then, along the bottom, go to 'Purchased', and tap either Movies/Music/TV Programmes from along the top, depending on what you're looking for. They should be there. If they're not, you'll want to contact iTunes Support as it will be an issue with your account. Thanks!

  • Why are my purchases made on my iphone not showing in purchases on pc? ********.

    Really sick of paying top dollar for services that don't work correctly.

    What purchases are you asking about?  If they are apps that were purchased on an iOS device they will not be available for anyother device and not show up.  If tunes, is your PC authorized?  Have you tried to sync the purchases to the PC?

  • Purchased movies on Apple TV not showing in iTunes

    I have video (purchased TV shows and video made in iMove) and purchased movies on an Apple TV (gen 1). In iTunes, I can see the audio recordings and both purchase and home made video but NOT the purchased movies. I really hate to purchase movies and place it on a hard drive I cannot back up.
    1) Why can I not see the purchased movies?
    2) Is there a way to back up the hard drive on Apple TV other than through iTunes?

    Why can I not see the purchased movies?
    Because they're not in the iTunes library. Control-click the Apple TV in iTunes and choose Transfer Purchases.
    Is there a way to back up the hard drive on Apple TV other than through iTunes?
    Basically, no.

    You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library. To make the new computer the syncing computer:

  • ITunes will NOT transfer purchases made via Apple TV - ATV HD is now FULL!

    For an unknown reason, All of my recent PURCHASES made via Apple TV remain on ATV as they will NOT TRANSFER to my iTunes. Now my ATV drive is full.
    No changes have been made to either configuration.
    The only update that was installed during this period was to BootCamp.
    Please fix this issue. It's been around for a long long time.

    Problem still exists. Have tried all suggestions that I have found so far on the web.
    Resetting is not an option as I live in a RURAL are where the local ISP charges by Gbytes transferred.
    The only option I see at this time is to hack the ATV to accept a USB drive and manually transfer.
    Please post any success you might have with this issue.
    ZERO follow through from Apple is not acceptable.

  • The music I have purchased on my IPod are not showing up on my ITunes library on my computer

    The music I have purchased on my IPod is not showing up on my Itunes account on my computer, I went to the itunes store on my computer and went to see if I could download a song i previously purchased, but it was going to have me pay again. I have about a hundred songs missing on my computers itunes. It won't let me sync my ipod to it anymore and when I tried to update the software it wouldn't let me. I am completely at a standstill with this.

    Then you're doing something wrong.  Are you signed in with the same Apple ID on the computer that the content was purchased with?
    Did you check the purchase history?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Re-pair your library with iTunes.
    Settings/computers, disconnect your library, then remove the Apple TV from iTunes prefs if necessary.
    Then settings/computers/connect to iTunes.

  • Changes made in symbol does not show?

    Hi, I recently started working with adjusting a template with flash 8. Everything went smoothly except for one thing. I changed one certain symbol in my libray and when i exported the movie (after changing) i dont see the changes in my website. Other buttons, symbols etc immediatly show there adjustments and this just keeps on remaining the same? Anybody knows what to do with this? Please reply!

    Hi,
    I tried clearing the cache before. No success. The symbols that does not
    seem to change are on the website. I searches the whole library and the

  • Apple mail not showing all the messages?

    In Apple mail, for my icloud account, I have some mailboxes which show the wrong number of messages, it shows too few.
    As an example, a mailbox contains 150 messages, but apple mail reports there are only 146.
    I rebuilt the mailbox and let apple mail do its thing. In the activity window I can see there are 150 messages. Yet, once apple mail has finished rebuilding the mailbox, it still tells me there are 146 messages. What's going wrong? Why would apple mail not show all the messages while in the activity window it clearly shows it knows there are 150?

    Solved!
    This was too weird to be real. Apple mail does not show messages it believes to be duplicates, and buy, does it make big mistakes in deciding what are duplicate messages and what not! Some of my mailboxes had over 100 "duplicates" not showing according to apple mail.
    I found a solution thanks to this topic:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18265121#18265121
    defaults delete com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates
    does yield an error in 10.8.2 ( Domain (com.apple.mail) not found. Defaults have not been changed. )
    defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
    Does work brilliantly though!

  • I have purchase iphone4 from someone,it is not factory unlock ,how can i get it factory unlock,its safari not working and its not showing drive on my computer

    i have purchase iphone4 from gray market,it is not factory unlock,how can i get it factory unlock,
    its safari not working and it is not showing drive in my computer.

    iPhones are sold in carrier-locked and unlocked versions. If the phone has a carrier lock on it, you must contact the carrier to have it removed (you probably need to bring the phone to the carrier for the process). If you don't know the carrier, you won't be able to get it unlocked. US carriers will not remove the carrier lock and it cannot be removed.
    How is Safari behaving that makes you say that Safari is not working? The lock status of the phone won't affect Safari, except that if the phone is locked and you aren't using the carrier (and SIM provided by the carrier) to which it is locked, then you can't use the phone or 3G service, only Wi-Fi.
    The iPhone should not appear as a drive on your computer, so there's no error there.

  • 1st gen apple tv not showing all movies synced from iTunes.

    I have 30 movies in iTunes library that I synced to my 1st gen Apple TV.  I have viewed several of these movies in the past on the Apple TV but some are not coming up in the listings anymore.  I go back to iTunes and still see that they are still stored/synced to the Apple TV.  Why can't I see them listed anymore? (Can't see them under 'Watched' or 'Unwatched')

    Hi clur,

  • IPod Touch is not showing up in My Computer

    I realize that there are several other topics that talk about this problem, but so far none have really helped me. My goal is to have my iPod Touch be recognized as a camera so I can upload all my photos from my Saved Photos to my computer and finally clear up some much needed space on it. Please don't refer me to software that will allow me to move photos from my iTouch to my PC because either they are all only trial versions or they don't allow me to access the images from my Saved Photos album.
    Currently my iPod Touch does not show up in My Computer. I'm running Windows XP. Checking my Device Manager for the driver, the only driver that comes up that relates to my iPod is called Apple Mobile Device USB Driver. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling that driver (and one I was able to get the iPod to show up in My Computer as a camera but when I clicked on it, it said that there were no pictures in the device [and I clearly do], and after uninstalling the driver again and reinstalling it the icon went away). I've read that maybe uninstalling iTunes and then reinstalling it might fix my problem, but I'm weary to uninstall it for fear that I might loose all my applications that I've synced into iTunes as well as my purchases and all the movies and things I've downloaded.
    If anyone has any comments, suggestions, or further questions about my problem, PLEASE say so because this is very urgent and I need all the help I can get.

    Also, I forgot to add that my iTouch is a 1st Gen I believe (I'm sorry, I got it for a Christmas gift, but I'm pretty sure it's a 1st Gen).
