Stop download of movies in itunes

When I was setting up iTunes in my new MacBook Air, I was moving music files from iTunes to the computer and it kept trying to download the 4 movies I have in my account. I watch them still on my iPhone and iPad, but do not want them taking up space on my MacBook. How do I stop them from keeping trying to download. I deleted them as they were trying and they kept coming back. I hid the movie files in my iTunes account, and they came back again. I changed my settings in iTunes to Music only, and the movies kept trying to download. I don't want to delete them from my profile, just don't want them on the computer.
Thanks!

Sorry, I should have added that I redeemed the digital copies in Apple iTunes.

Downloaded a movie from iTunes to my iPad. 2 minutes into the movie it stopped and My Videos is stuck in black screen mode. So basically rented a movie and never watched it.

The EXACT same thing happened to me last night! Rented a movie; it had barely started and then froze. When I touch the video app icon, all I get is a blank, dimly lit screen. None of the other videos I own will display either. Was your problem ever resolved?

If it is a HD movie, it may not be enough. The iPad also need working space.
Try download to iTune (computer) and "Move" to iPad.

TS1424 Can't download a movie in iTunes. Error 8008. Anyone know how to fix?

I've tried a few different times to download a movie in iTunes -- it stops at the same point each time -- gives error 8008.
I'm trying to figure out how to get tech help (without waiting for the iTunes Store receipt to do so). Still searching, but open to help meanwhile.
Thanks,

Perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

Tap the Videos app and tap the movies button at the top of the page.
The iTunes app on your iPad is just a conduit to the iTunes Store. To play your purchases, use the iPod app or the Videos app.

Sounds like the movie didn't finish downloading before the Wi-Fi signal dropping ...
Try re downloading. You won't be charged again.

I downloaded a movie from itunes on my ipad. In the downloaded area where the movie should be, I only get a link to "iItunes Terms and Conditions", no movie. There is nowhere to accept the terms and conditions.

Nevermind, the movie was there in the Videos app, not itunes downloads. Thanks.

I downloaded a movie from iTunes. I wanted to burn a DVD of the movie which I could play on my home entertainment system. After I had burned the DVD I tried to play the movie from it on the computer and got the message " You can't open the application mediaioserver because it may be damaged or incomplete". What is this all about? Are there settings I need to change? PS: I tried to play the DVD on my home DVD player and it also doesn't work. Help!
