Rented movies and films don't work with iTunes (no response error)

Hi,
recently, I've rented a movie via iTunes but every time I try to watch it there's no response from iTunes anymore and I have to close the application. I've tried updating, re-installing iTunes and QuickTime Player but still no response. Videocard and Directx are also up to date. Same problem occurs while trying to watch  trailers in iTunes Store. Anybody any solution or idea? I have a Windows Vista PC by the way

I discovered the answer to my own problem and anyone else out there who needs it here it is:  If you have itunes installed on your computer and cd/dvd device is not working do a system restore to a time prior to the dl of itunes.  Check to make sure your cd/dvd works again.  If it does, then all you need to do is make sure your ipod is NOT connected to your computer while you download itunes again.  Should fix the problem.

  • Pause, back, and fwd (F6-8) keys don't work with iTunes. [Windows 7 64-bit]

    All my other F# keys work (I can adjust the screen brightness, adjust the volume...etc) but my Pause (F8), Back (F7) and Fwd (F9) keys don't work with iTunes. Though they DO work with Windows Media Player.
    How can I get them to work with iTunes?

  • HT1657 What happens when you rent movies and they don't play? How come that question is not on the list?

    What happens when you rent movies and they don't play and you tried getting credit for it?  I rented two movies which they were very very old movies in black & white and they both don't play.  I never had this problem before even when downloading videos. Now how can I get credit for it?  I contact itunes a number of times and no one has done nothing as of yet.  Itunes also asked me for my order number which I sent them but still no credit.

        Great question MommaBof4! This is actually something that can be completed. VZW does have the option to turn this feature on or off based upon the users request. If you would like to update this feature on your device please give us a call by dialing *611 send from your VZW device, thanks!

  • TS3474 I purchaed the earpods with mic & controls and they don't work with 6th generation nano.  Are the features supposed to be compatible with this model of nano?

    I purchased the earpods with mic & controls and the features don't work with 6th generation nano--is this normal?

    Hi there,
    According to the product page:
    The remote and mic are supported by all models of iPod, iPhone, and iPad (not all models support volume up/down functions). Audio is supported by all iPod models.
    Your iPod Nano may be one of the models that does not support the volume up/down function. Take a look at the page below for more information.

  • N86 media buttons and volume don't work with music

    I used my N86 on a trip last week as my music player, and used the nokia remote attachment which I used to play/pause, skip, repeat and adjust volume with no problems.  Just today I used my phone again, this time without the remote, or headphones, and now the media buttons on the end of the phone (when slid oposite the keypad) don't work, and the sound volume won't adjust with the volume key.  I even tried with the remote and that didn't work either.  The volume works fine with phone calls.  Any ideas on what caused this?
    PS I just updated to 20.115 and this did not correct the problem.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Sigh.. sorry to hear that. What is it with these phones that you have to format them all the time? (a rhetoric question, knowledgeable presons needn't answer )
    (Trivia: search results for 'hard reset': 6738, search results for 'format': 16063, search results for 'factory reset': 4329)
    You'll probably soon have that same problem again - my all means I don't hope you will, but I'm just guessing

  • Satellite L305D-S5895 - Functions keys and WLan don't work with Win XP

    Hi,
    first sorry for my english
    I bought a Toshiba Satellite l305d s5895, with winXP, because I need software, but the function keys doesn't works.
    So I need a driver, but i can't find it, and the internet wireless doesn't work.

    >Where would one find this special XP BIOS?
    In my opinion there is problem because most threads here are about European notebook models. so then come question from US. Toshiba Europe and Toshiba US don't work together and every of them is responsible for own models and offer support for country specific notebook models.
    So here in Europe Toshiba has for most models offered two BIOSes. One was already on the Vista delivered notebooks. On download page Toshiba has offered BIOS for WXP. in most cases it was version 5.xx and this BIOS was designed to support Toshiba specific tools and utilities. For example, full FN keys functionality was available with this WXP BIOS only.
    So if someone of you have US notebook model they should see how to find the solution with Toshiba US or US forum under http://community.compuserve.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?webtag=ws-laptop&redirCnt=1
    Bye and good luck!

  • Why Safari and QuickTime don't work with OS 10.3.9

    I have an old Mac G4 running OS 10.3.9.  Safari 1.3.2 does not work properly. Moreover QuickTime does not work at all. I cannot watch the movies on my website. I know my site is OK because everything works with a newer computer. What can I do to improve the situation? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Click Software Update from your Apple menu. Make sure your software is up to date.

    The older Safari / QT versions may not be able to stream the video.

  • Next and Previous don't work with video in Playlists

    In iTunes for Windows 10.1.2.17, when playing video from a playlist, the video will end and the video window will close, and playback stops. No new video will play. The same thing occurs when clicking on the Next or Previous buttons (both on the video window and in the playback controls at the top of iTunes. Shouldn't the next video in the playlist (or the next random video) play once the first has completed?
    This is a new behavior. It did not occur with earlier versions of iTunes.
    The Next and Previous buttons work as they are supposed to when playing video from the library, but then there is no way to select specific videos or to randomize playback as is possible under a playlist (which is the whole point of the playlist.)
    The Next and Previous buttons still work as they are supposed to when playing music from a playlist. This new odd behavior occurs only with video playback.
    Is this a known issue, or is there something I'm missing in the operation of iTunes? Are other people experiencing this behavior?

    This happened to me as well with Windows 7 32 bit (which I did as as upgrade from Vista Home Premium - if that might foul things up a bit) and affects Firefox 34.1 and IE. I did a system restore which took me back to Firefox 33 and Flash was fine. Later in the day Firefox updated back to 34.1 and I lost Flash again.

  • IPhoto, iDVD, and iMovie don't work with Leopard

    Hi, I just installed Leopard onto my machine and iPhoto, iDVD and iMovie no longer work properly. For all three I get the error message "(This program) has unexpectedly quit." Can you help?

    my husband was having the same problem and it even bled into his sys prefs. the problems actually started after he ran software update last night (things were working find before that, and he's running leopard btw)
    he archived and reinstalled (he unchecked the "preserve users and settings box") and we're about to find out if that solved it.
    to summarize, you may need to reinstall if software update doesn't fix it. not sure what caused this problem. perhaps some corruption of files?

  • TS1741 Remote and Home Sharing stopped working with iTunes 10.7

    I have been using Apple Remote to control my Win 7 library as I play it via HDMI through my A/V receiver. I used it on iPad 2, iPhone 4s and iPod Touch 3G, with no problems for several weeks. Just today, however, I cannot get the devices to appear on the iTunes device list, and cannot access the library remotely. I have tried all devices while connected to the same network [tried this with three different networks]. I have turned off firewalls and anti-virus. I have rebooted and reset routers many times. Reinstalled iTunes. Repaired Bonjour. Confirmed port forwarding in routers and in firewalls. Confirmed account names and passwords.
    Airplay works fine.
    I believe the problem is in an iTunes or Windows setting that might have changed during an automatic update, but I can't find it.  Any ideas? Similar experiences? I know a lot of ATV issues have come up with other users, but these don't seem similar to my issue.
    Thanks.

    Somehow, this seems to have been resolved. The only changes I made were:
    1)  I disabled the wireless adapter in my Media server, and enabled the wired LAN adapter. Both are on the same router [192.168.2.1] I have been using wireless for several weeks without any problem. Of all the changes I made today, this is most likely the one that resolved the problem, for now!
    2)  I disconnected my Windows Home Server from the Verizon router [192.168.1.1] and connected it to the Linksys router that I use for my Media server. All my devices connect through the Linksys router, and the WHS box was not involved in any way to this sharing function [it is usually asleep]. As stated previously, I have used the Remote functions for several weeks without any troubles. All shared devices must be on the same router, and they have been;
    3) I also turned on media sharing for the folder containing my master music files, but this is NOT the same folder containing my iTunes libraries or my iTunes media files. This is only an original folder with the largest versions of all my music files [many that iTunes is unable to read].
    I don't know why any of these actions should have recovered my ability to Remote with iTunes, but alas, it "seems" to be working for now.
    Summary... Try everything, even if it seems completely unrelated!!!

  • Surround Sound speakers don't work with ITUNES 7

    My surround sound speakers have worked with my computer since I got them and still are working. However, when I upgraded to ITUNEs 7 suddenly only the front speakers work, this only happens on ITUNEs and nothing else. What is going on and how can I fix it?

    I have surround sound speakers and mine are working fine with iTunes 7. Now, I don't want to state the obvious, but my surround sound speakers have a bass box attached and the leads go into the back and sometimes they come loose. You've probably already checked this but I thought it worth a a mention.

  • Windows Power Management settings don't work with ITunes

    Purchased a refurbished Dell Optiplex system a few weeks ago with a 3.2 Ghz Pentium processor, 1 gigabyte of RAM, and 160 GB of hard drive - so a nice, new, fast system running Windows XP.
    I set my Power Management settings to go to screen saver after 20 minutes, and power down after 45 minutes. It worked just fine for a month, and the day I downloaded Itunes onto this computer, those settings do not work.
    I have reset them.
    I have changed them (to as little as one minute).
    I have changed them back to the original settings.
    I have rebooted my computer.
    I have run 2 different spyware programs (Spybot and Adaware) as well as run an anti-virus scan (TrendMicro Housecall).
    Nothing has changed, and my only conclusion is that Itunes is somehow interfering with the power settings for my computer and monitor. This is rather frustrating, as I'd like my computer to shut off on its own if someone walks away (I can't trust my kids to log off on their own).
    Any ideas on what the problem might be?

    Hi, I just bought my iPhone a couple of days ago and am having the same problems.
    I have a Macbook at home, but need to be able to sync with my work computer for contacts and calendar. At work I'm running on Windows XP Pro SP 2 and MS Outlook 2003 SP 3. I've made sure to update all MS software. I'm running on iPhone 1.1.3 and iTunes 7.6.
    My contacts sync fine, but, so far, no luck with my calendar. I've gone through the trouble of completely deleting everything off my calendar and am trying "test" appointments to no avail. What's really frustrating is that I've logged out of my ID on this computer and logged in using a test ID. I can successfully sync a test appointment following those steps.
    Tech support tells me that since I'm successful under those conditions, it must be a corrupt entry on my main calendar. But, as I've mentioned, I deleted everything I can find off my main calendar and am still not able to get it to sync successfully.
    This is quite frustrating.

  • Drag and drop isn't working with itunes

    I recently did an update for my iphone and itunes. Now when I try to drag anything out of my itunes it won't work. It doesn't show the plus sign. I tried adding books and music to my iphone and it doesn't work either. I have "maually manage music and videos" selected and I clicked Sync and it's still not working. I've deleted the preferences. Not sure what else to do and looking for any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

    In iTunes on your computer, choose File > Add to Library and select the PDF. Then sync. See iTunes Help for more info about syncing
