"There was an error loading this content.  Please try again later."

I've had my Apple TV since December.  I rented several movies from the iTunes Store with no problems.  This April, when I tried to rent a movie, it gave me the following message when I attempted to play the movie: "There was an error loading this content.  Please try again later."  All other functionality on the Apple TV is fine.  My internet connection is working perfectly.  The Apple TV is connected to the network.  This occurs regardless of which movie I rent (I've tried four!) and when I attempt to rent a movie.  This is very frustrating!

I also get the message " An error occurred loading this content. Try again later." Though I have tried later many times nothing changes except for the speed at which i receive the error. It seems to correlate with the activity in the network. If there are more devices pulling from the network ( meaning the download speed should be slower) I receive the error message faster, this makes sense in that its failing faster.
I have tried:
A different network.
Apple Tv's "Test Network"
Signing out and back in to my iTunes account.(Including updating the billing information)
Reset All Settings
Restore
Software Update (Software is up to date)
Called Apple. (They said its probably my internet speed)
Notes:
I have Played HD iTunes content previously.( On the previous version of Apple Tv software)
I believe my internet speed is less than 2.5 Mbps.
Everything else on my apple tv works fine.
I believe the most recent update to Apple Tv has, for some reason, disabled the ability to slowly buffer the content you rent on iTunes. Previously I could rent a movie or tv show and select play, then you could navigate anywhere in the apple tv menu until a message appeared saying your content was ready to play.
I want to go back to the old software.

  • We rented a movie, purchased it and downloaded it.  now a few days later we tried to watch it but there is an "error loading this movie, please try again later" HELP!

    Trying to watch a rented movie, but error message says "an error occured loading this content.  please try again later."  How do I fix that?  How much later? would really like to watch our movie

    I selected to rent and watch now instead of rent and watch later.  I tried to watch it now and it said it would be available in 6 hours or something silly like that (certainly out of the realm of NOW ) Anyway.... I tried to play it several times and the time it said I had to wait did go down.  5 hours to 3 hours to 2 hours and so on but this was an all day and next day kinda thing.  I guess I was downloading it for 2 days.  I figured id just get up the next day and try again NOW the movie has been removed from the rented section all together.  It's gone...my time is up!!!  I haven't even watched it yet.  It was downloading for 2 days.  I know I can adjust my settings to download a lesser quality and thats fine for NEXT time but I paid $5 to rent a movie that I never started watching because it never finished downloading!  I wonder if because I selected Rent and Watch Now (joke) it assumed even though it was still downloading that it started my time at initial time of purchase?  If so that's crap too.  Anybody have similar experience?

    Firstly, I should have typed speedtest.net previously.
    Now that's an interesting comment you make, out of interest do you have any purchased HD movies in your iTunes collection, if so, do they play on the Apple TV with your new tv.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router.

  • TS2972 An Error Occurred Loading This Content Please Try Again Later

    This seems to be a pretty common issue that many of us users are having. But mine is a bit different...
    I had had no problem at all in the first 3 months of using my ATV, but then all of a sudden during a Tv Show i was watching via Home Sharing the error appeared, mid show!
    I have tried exiting to the main menu, restarting, rebooting anything and everything connected to eitehr my laptop, ATV, Router and TV.
    All of the files are mp4s and open in itunes no problem, and if I load them on to my iPad and start watching through the TV from the iPad's AirPlay it works fine.
    Some files work sometimes but not other times, and there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to why some work when others don't.
    Has anyone got any ideas of what the problem is and how I can fix it?!

    I bought Flight and have never been able to watch it.  Get the same error message every time. 
    "An error occurred loading this content. Please try again later."
    How do I get a refund?  Anyone know?

  • Can't open Desktop app. "There was an error with this action.  Try again later."  How do I solve this?

    I've been trying to open "Desktop App" for a couple of days now.  I get the above error message.  "Later" obviously isn't going to work.  I've signed out of my account and signed back in, but that hasn't helped. 
    I can reach the App Mgr from PS, and I assume I could download a new program from the apps site.  But the Desktop app should work, so I'd appreciate suggestions on how to solve this.  Thanks.
    Gail

    Thanks for the prompt response.  Up till a week or so ago, the app worked
    fine, and I was able to do the latest updates. The chat option is always
    there, but it's a nuisance, so I'm hoping someone will have another
    suggestion.

  • There was an error loading this content...happens all the time

    at least three times I day I have to unplug and plug in the power as it gives me the "there was an error loading this content" message constantly...why does this happen?  This is a very frustrating device

    That will usually indicate a network issue.
    What is your current connection via speedtest.net
    Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
    If on wifi try ethernet
    You can go to istumbler, netstumbler or similar to see a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise
