Rented a movie, won't play, gets error message. Running latest version of AppleTV2.

After renting a movie it shows up as rented with 29 days to go, but when I hit play I get An error occurred while loading this content. Try again later. I've checked my time zone - ok, logged out of iTunes and back in, rebooted AppleTV. Still can't play movie. Any thoughts on what to do next? And, how can I get a refund on this rental if it won't play?

I appreciate you're frustrated with the situation but it's hardly 'Snarky' telling you the truth regarding your specific comment. I've offered an answer elsewhere - I've just checked and it still lists Apple TV rental for me, though the item may not appear if you've not had the e-mail detailing your purchases yet.
In iTunes on your computer log into your account.
Under Account Information>Purchase History it should list your purchases.
Select the problem purchase/purchases form the list, and it should list them with 'Report a Problem' as a button to click on the bottom.

I have new IPad ...can't watch rented downloaded movie on my tv..error message is " The connected display is not authorized to play protected movies"... What is up with that???

I have new IPad ...can't watch rented downloaded movie on my tv..error message is " The connected display is not authorized to play protected movies"... What is up with that???

I had exact same problem and I have found a way to get round out!!!! Easy!
So the reason it doesn't allow it to play is for security to stop piracy etc.
Plug in the cable and VGA and aux cable and get everything set up so you are looking at the home screen.
1) select Videos
2) selected the film you want to watch
3) click the little play button
4) it will then come up with the message saying it can't play protected films blah blah blah
5) WITHOUT clicking ok double tap the home button to bring up the multitasking bar and swipe left to reveal the control panel
6) hold fast forward for a second or two and the movie with continue to play!
Stay in the multi tasking bar with the control panel, The message will stay there but don't worry. Kick back and enjoy your iPad movie on the big screen:)
I'm sure your saying thanks:) it was my pleasure realising I've outsmarted apples little security protection thing lol

Using time warner road runner. when I try to open up safari to home page I get error message that this version does not support the "community toolbar" can't proceed until closing the error message. sick of seeing it

using time warner road runner. when I try to open up safari to home page I get error message that this version does not support the "community toolbar" can't proceed until closing the error message. sick of seeing it

That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
Also, as mentioned by Gilli2000:
Library/Receipts - If you read it, it has information in it at the bottom referring extensively to "CT" and "community toolbar".
Maybe it is harmless, but trash those items anyway!
Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

Trying to update iTunes, get error message "The older version of Bonjour cannot be removed" How do I remove it?

Trying to update iTunes on Windows XP, get error message "The older version of Bonjour cannot be removed." I have removed several copies of the file Bonjour in a couple of different folders but the error message persists. What am I missing??

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Just got an ipod touch software version 2.2.1 and everytime I download an app get error message requires newer version of software. Did all updates, and same.

Keep getting error message require newer version of iPod software to install apps on ipod touch v2.2.1. Is there a version limitation for using apps with the iPod touch? Loaded the latest updates etc.

I sounds like yu have a first generation (1G) iPod. You can update that as far as iOS 3.1.3. To get that update go here. You may have to use a different browser to get the sublink to work correctly.

Missing Render files, won't play, General Error message

I have Final Cut Pro 5.0.4 on my Mac 1.8 Ghz Power PC G5, using Mac OS 10.4.10.
I just opened a Final Cut Pro project and got a message that several render files were offline. No idea how that happened, and I couldn't find them to reconnect. Now, when I try to play the video, it stops and a "General Error" message comes up.
I tried re-rendering the whole thing,and reconnected all my media files, but it still won't play. Any ideas on how to save my project?

There are just too many possibilities for us to start guessing. Try searching for GENERAL ERROR and MISSING RENDER FILES, both topics get posted often so you'll find several suggestions and possible causes. However, not many people bother to close their threads around here so there's no way to know if any of the information we passed on was of any help.
FCP 4 and 5 had the odd super-power to make files disappear as if they had never existed. General Error often indicates a corrupt project file so try to open one of your AutoSaves.

Hi! Need help! I downloaded Reader 9.1 and now it won't install Get error message "Error 1606. Could no access network location %APPDATA%\. I'm about ready to trash my computer! Thanks!

Hi! Need help desperately! I downloaded Reader 9.1 and it won't install. Get the error message "Error 1606. Could not access network location %APPDATA%\. Thanks!

Hello again:
I don't mean to step on any toes here but it seems that the root of the problem is being ignored. I offered before that the problems you are experiencing are due to inconsistencies in the Windows registry. While I could speculate on the various methods of how this came to be, I don't have that kind of time nor is there a need. More than likely it is some type of malware that has infected the system but that should be explored on more suited forums such as MajorGeeks.com or BleepingComputer.com. The way I see it, you have a few paths you can take, all of which will lead you to the same place: no more error 1606 and a functional Reader:
Option 1: Run the Windows Live OneCare free safety scanner to resolve any broken registry links it can find.
Option 2: Manually fix the "broken" registry entries in the Windows registry. While I understand Pat's hesitation to do so, the truth of the matter is it will resolve the immediate issue. Once the APPDATA path is corrected, you should then be able to install Reader.
Option 3: Restore Windows to a previous date using System Restore located in Help & Support of the Start menu.
Option 4: [SLEDGE HAMMER] Reinstall Windows over the top of the current installation (NO FORMAT). Use this option only if you have no other recourse. The potential to lose all personal data and settings is high if this option is not performed correctly. If this option is chosen, be certain to use a "setup" profile (username) different than your current username. If you only have a manufacturer's system restore disk rather than a Windows CD/DVD, you may not have the option NOT to format which WILL result in the loss of personal data. This option should only be performed by someone who has previous knowledge of such or is willing to learn even at the expense of data loss/time/effort.
I HIGHLY recommend that any and all personal data is backed up to an external location such as a USB key, CD/DVD, or external hard drive prior to performing option 2 or 4 above. If you would like any of the options explained in greater detail, feel free to ask and I will oblige.
Best of success!

Firefox won't open - get error message "this operation has been cancalled due to restrictions in place on this account..."

I can't open firefox - every time I try I get the above error message. This has started after no apparent changes or updates to my system, just a normal shut down. I have tried changing the registry .htm, .html etc. file names and reinstalling as suggested but this doesn't work. The only way I can open firefox is after I have reinstalled it and it automatically launches a browser.
I can open firefox in a new user account which suggests something has changed in the account I usually use but I have no idea what since I have not made any changes myself and can't see anything that would suggest it is blocking firefox from opening. I've run a virus scan and it is coming up clean.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'd be very grateful for some help.
Thank you.

Hi mcclausky, you may need to manually remove a policy setting from the registry. You also should scan for malware that might have created this problem.
This article lists scanning and cleaning tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
To check your Windows registry for policy settings that might affect Firefox or other programs, I suggest consulting a Windows forum or Microsoft's forums. For example:

Acrobat X Pro won't open, get error message from Windows user acct controls

Using Windows 7. Installed okay and all other components of CS work. User acct Control asks permission to change C drive. Whatever I answer does not work. I have answered yes or no, give admin priviliges, reset user acct control settings, reinstalled, etc.

Can you please post the exact error message you are receiving? Did you receive any error messages during the install process? Has Acrobat X ever worked on your Windows 7 system?
