TS1412 i purchased a movie from itunes and it will not download! why?

i am on vacation and wanted to relax with a nice long movie so i purchased the film scarface for 9.99 on itunes and it will not download and through all of my effort to make it download i have learned about converters and all kinds of mumbo jumbo how do i just watch the movie that i purchased? i do not want to get a refund for the movie....

this is the iMovie board - about the editing software delivered free with any Mac.
purchased movies can only be playbacked in iTunes.
any mumbo jambo probably gets better explained in the 'iTunes for Windows'-section of this board:

  • I just purchased a movie from iTunes and it will not download on either my new macbook and iMac. Keep getting error 8008.

    I have been having this problem with other movies for about a week now. I just tried my new macbook pro to see it it would download on it but I received the same error code 8008 (corrupt).
    I have about 60 movies I would like to download and back-up but it is happening on all of them.

    You probably need to delete your iTunes media downloads folder.  From http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297:
    "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023"
    These alerts occur due to timeouts or conflicts trying to write a file during download.
    If you encounter this issue while accessing iTunes Store:
    See iTunes 9: "One Moment Please" or "Error (-50)" message when accessing iTunes Store
    If you encounter this issue while while downloading something from the iTunes Store:
    Delete your iTunes Downloads folder, located in:
    Mac OS X:
  ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Downloads   Note: "iTunes Media" may appear as "iTunes Music. Also, the tilde (~) refers to your Home directory.
    Windows Vista:
  \Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    Windows 7:
  \Users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    Windows XP:
  \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
    After locating your iTunes Downloads folder:
    Quit iTunes.
    Delete the Downloads folder on your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Choose Store > Check for Available Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password.

  • HT201272 I dont understand how I can purchase a song from itunes and it WILL not transfer to my iPhone? What is the purpose of paying for music in the first place? I have authorised my computer. I have authorised manual transfer. I can transfer every song

    I've purchased music from iTunes and CANNOT drag to my iPhone...WHY? I have clicked manage myself and authorised my computer. What is the point of buying music if you cannot transfer from iTunes to an iPhone? I can happily transfer my CDs.????? I have the latest update on my iPhone and iTunes.

    Media was moved via external hard disk, and I think I moved the iTunes Media folder after consolidating it.

    Are you going to Movies - Purchased or Computers - Movies ?
    If you go to iTunes Store  on your computer - Quicklinks - Purchased. Is it showing up there?
    Is this a purchase or a rental?

  • I purchased a movie via Itunes and it does not display as a purchased item on my Apple TV yet A TV show I bought does.

    I purchased a movie via Itunes and it does not display as a purchased item on my Apple TV yet A TV show I bought does. The only way I can view it is if I turn on home sharing and the movie is downloaded to my PC. Is this normal?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Perfectly normal, purchased items only applies to TV shows, the studios have not licensed movies for redownloading.

    I purchased tv shows from iTunes and keep getting a download error tap to retry.  Why don't the shows download?  What can I do?

    Hello there Julfos,
    I recommend this part of the article named iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1725.
    If you cannot complete the download on your device, you can finish the download in iTunes on your computer and then sync it to your device. For instructions, see the following articles:
    iTunes Store: Where can I download and sync my purchases?
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    Additional Information
    If your purchase does not resume downloading after following the steps in this article, you can also try the following steps to troubleshoot the download issue.
    Restart your computer or device.
    Check for updates for your Mac or PC and install any software updates. Also, check for and install updates for any security software you may have (anti-virus, anti-malware, firewall, and so on).
    If using Wi-Fi for Internet access, try using a different Wi-Fi network when downloading. If you are connecting to a home network, try restarting your Wi-Fi router. Also, check for and install any firmware updates for your Wi-Fi router. (Refer the manufacturer's website for your router to get information on updating its firmware).
    If that does not resolve the issue then I recommend quitting all the apps running with this article, and trying again.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Perhaps even forgetting your home network and rejoining it.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap > and Forget this Network. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network again.
    Or resetting your network settings.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.

  • I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1.  It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

    I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1.  It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

    Annoying isn't it.
    This seems to have started at the end of October and may be some kind of 'authorisation expiry' on the original unit that needs updating.
    Solution include:
    Purchase something on the AppleTV1 itself with DRM (a free TV Show episode might be an idea if yiou can find one).
    Remove the connection to itunes by removing the iTunes library from AppleTV's Computers>Settings menu, then add it back again.
    Remember this will wipe synced content from the AppleTV if AppleTV1 is syncing (My Movies/TV Shows etc) as opposed to streaming (My Shared Movies etc) from that itunes library.  In theory direct purchases on AppleTV that have never transferred to itunes might survive the 'wipe for a clean slate for a new sync' process that happens when you remove a sync library but don't risk it and right click on the AppleTV Device in itunes, choose Transfer Purchases if there are any prior to resetting the AppleTV Computers entry and readding the library.  If AppleTV is streaming only it's very quick to remove the libarry and re-add it as there's nothing to sync when you re-establish the connection - it works I've done it.  Purchasing a protected music video on my other AppleTV1 which was synced also worked.
    Good luck
