TS1707 what to do if you hit "play" before rental movie has fully downloaded?

last night i hit "buy" on the itunes store for a HD movie. this morning i checked my rental tab and it showed the movie thumbnail and synopsis. i boarded my plane and eagerly hit "play". the 24 hour warning dialog box came on, i checked it and waited. i get a message the the movie is now downloading and it will take 86 hours. but i have only 24 hours to watch my movie. i wrote to apple support. but has anybody ever encountered this before?

iPod Updater 2006-03-23 has been released
iPod Updater 2006-03-23 includes iPod Software 1.1.1 for the new iPod and new iPod Software 1.1.1 for iPod nano.
iPod Updater 2006-03-23 contains the same software versions as iPod Updater 2006-01-10 for all other iPod models.
What's new in iPod Updater 2006-03-23:
- Volume limit
- Bug fixes
I have been trying to ascertain from Apple Support Level 2 as to whether the latest iPod firmware improves or provides better resolution for the chkdsk issue. If anyone has been using iPod Updater 2006-03-23 to resolve their chkdsk woes, feel free to post in here just to say how things worked out for you...
Kind regards,
Gopha.

    Audiobooks purchased from Audible.com.  They play on iTunes on my computer.  They have been playing on my iPod Classic until two days ago.  I'm in the middle of two books and now one does not keep track of where I am and the other does not play.  I also have other books not playing on the iPod that use to play.  They all play on iTunes on my computer.

  • What is the longest you have waited before find my ipod has located it on the map?

    What is the longest you have waited before the find my ipod has located it on the map?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Generally it's less than a minute, however when the device can't be located (maybe its on a train in a tunnel, or it's turned off), it can be any length of time.

  • Crash if I hit "Play" before save is complete

    Does anyone experience this behavior?
    If I save a project, but jump the gun and hit "play" before the project is completely saved, Logic will hang and require a force quit. I'm running 9.1.1 in 32bit mode. Any feedback appreciated.
    Current setup:
    Mac Pro 8 Core 2 x 2.26 Intel Xeon
    16GB RAM
    Logic Pro 9.1.1

    Doctor "So don't move your arm like that..."
    I don't think it's an unrealistic thing to expect to happen. After all, a file is being written to your hard drive, which is calling on the program and the OS to interact. And while it's doing that, your telling it to go read some audio files from this part of the drive, and perhaps play these CPU intensive software instruments.
    Just don't do it. Hit save, take a sip of coffee... hit play. That's my mantra...

  • Error code 5103 "Unable to Play" with rental movies! Please help!!

    I have a PC with Windows 7. iTunes 10.5.2. I purchased 2 rental movies and have downloaded them a few times now. But when I press "Play" I get the error code 5103 - Unable to Play. This has been going on for 2 weeks.
    Please help!!!!

    All it says is to download the lasted vers in iTunes which I already have.
    That's not true. It goes on to say:
    "If you have the most recent version and are still unable to download your rental, you may be able to resolve your issue by removing the "SC Info" folder. To do so, follow these steps:"
    ... and then gives links to instructions on how to do so for your particular operating system. So best to proceed with the instructions for your operating system.

  • Apple TV won't play TV shows that are fully downloaded in my library.

    Hi,
    My Apple TV won't play TV shows that are fully downloaded in my library.  It says it will take 6 hours to load a 50 minute episode.  It suggests to change the picture resolution, yet this till says it will take hours to uplaod.  Is anyone else having this problem, and how do I fix it?  I only bought the thing last week, and really feel ripped off.  Thanks in advance.

    Well, if the size of my iPhoto library is the problem, I would have hoped that Apple would have mentioned that when we were on the phone for two hours. But yes, that is a possibility. I have about 260 events containing about 26,000 photos.
    I agree, they should now what kind of limitations might apply.
    Again, the issue may not be iPhoto per se, but something in iTunes or the interface between the two that just struggles above a certain number of files.
    I was able to view photos before I upgraded my apple TV to v3 software but it was not reliable. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not. And it was always slow.
    There were occasional posts about people with slow performance on AppleTV who had huge music libraries - not in terms of storage size, just overall numbers of songs/albums etc.
    AppleTV is not a particularly high spec device compared to any modern computer so long lists of music files or photos/events might overload it. Trouble is here, itunes is just flat refusing to recognise your photos to even attempt to stream them.

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.

  • Hi I have copied over my iTunes to a new PC and now there are songs missing and when try to re download on iTunes it says play. When you hit play it sends you off to search for a file that doesn't exist. When syncing it says 100 issues Help please

    Hi,
    I have just put my iTunes on a new laptop by hard drive method and some songs are not there. When I go into iTunes it's doesn't say download or purchase it says play.
    So you press play and it opens a separate box saying search for file which isn't there.
    I have read tons of stuff re this but still not got it fixed. It's not a HD issue because iTunes won't let me download it why ?
    Hopefully someone can help
    Thanks David

    Hey Davidl678,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are unable to download the purchases from your purchase history, because iTunes believes the songs to be in your library. It may be necessary to delete the items from your library, then re-download from your purchase history. Before doing so, you may want to take note of which song are available for re-download:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Delete songs, playlists, or other items
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12359
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store

    Thanks,

  • Playing itunes rental movies

    when I try to play a movie that was downloaded to a computer, that I have given away, on my new computer, it says this movie has been authorized to play on another computer and cannot be played on this ( my new ) computer, Is there anyway I can play the movie that I rented and downloaded on my new computer, The rental period has not expired. thank you joanlvh

    Can't do it.
    You can only move it from the computer you rented it on to an iPhone, touch, iPod or Apple TV.
    To do this, you need to be connected the internet and sync it using iTunes. Simply copying it over will not update iTunes DRM to allow it to play on the other device.

  • Playing iTunes rental movie on Macbook air

    Hi there
    I have downloaded an iTunes rental movie on my windows desktop.  Can I access it on my Macbook Air??
    Thanks
    Megs

    Mine handles iTunes videos ok. Be aware that when you buy the HD version you also get the SD version. The combination is normally 5 gigs or better. If you're going to view the movie on the MBair, SD is probably good enough weighing in at slightly over a gig.

  • Iphone says songs are on it, but when I hit play it says I need to download the song

    So I had a few strange things happen every since itunes 10 and now more problems since updating to iOS 7 and iOS 8. At first I just started having about 20% of my songs play part way through then go silent for the last part of the song. They work fine on my computer and iPad but not my iPhone nor iTouch. Then after the iOS 7 update which failed the first time on my phone causing me to restore from an update a week prior due to the current back up being corrupted for who knows why.
    So after the restore when songs were added to my iPhone 5s, it says I have X amount of music on my phone but shows I still have 15 GB of space left while iTunes says I should have 3 GB of space. I then go to play a song and it shows the little download icon next to it and skips to the next song. This has happened on music I bought and some i Imported from CDs (confusing how I download a song from a CD as it's asking me to do). It was about 250 songs that this happened to out of the 3,500 I was putting on my device.
    Then when iOS 8 came out I noticed that music would not sync to my phone because it said I had no space left, it said I needed an additional 28 GB of storage yet I don't even have 28 GB of music. I was trying to add 15 new songs so it wouldn't be that much space. I then tried removing the music by unchecking the sync music box and the phone would sync. After the sync iTunes said the phone had no music on it and about 20 GB of free space. Then I checked it on the phone itself and all of the music was on the phone.
    In a fit of unhappiness as often happens to me with Apple products, I manually removed all the music on the phone through the settings interface. Then I synced it back up to my computer. It says it put on about 3600 songs on to my phone and I only have 3 GB free as I would expect. However when I check my phone it says I have 15 GB of free space (very confused how they are so far off). I did notice when it was syncing music it said it was syncing up to 960 songs. Then when I went to play music on my phone it says I have to redownload 2500 songs! Even ones that I imported from CDs I own! Why can my phone not sync with iTunes??? I played 5 songs on shuffle and it went through 117 before it could find 5 that it didn't need to download.

    Was the music purchased via your iTunes account and/or did you buy it from other sources or copy it from your own CDs, or did the music belong to the previous owner ? If the music was yours then you can sync it back to the iPod via your computer's iTunes. If the music is not still on your computer then have you got a backup of it ? If not then for iTunes purchases you might be able to re-download it depending on which country you are in. If the music was put on the iPod by the previous owner then you will need to buy your own copies of it.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Going round in circles trying to play a rental movie

    We have an ipad 3. We use the itunes icon to rent movies direct from the iTunes Store. We then (usually) go to the video app and the movie is there waiting to play. This time, the movie is a blank box. When we click on it, the movie details are there, but the picture isn't. There are two options : the "play" button, and the "cloud" with an downward arrow button. If we click the play button it briefly switches to the movie screen, and then flicks back to the video info page. If we hit the cloud button, it tells us to go to "downloads" to manage our downloads.
    Where is downloads on the ipad?? Even when using the search ipad option, there appears to be no downloads. We watched a movie this afternoon, and had none of these problems. The time zone is correct, the movies are not R- rated. We always rent and play direct from the ipad. In fact, this ipad has never been connected to a computer for itunes. I don't understand what is going on? (But I am ****** that I have been charged for the movie).
    Can anyone help?

    Hello Rachfr123
    To get to Downloads, go to the iTunes Store app on your iPad and it will be part of the bottom tabs if something is downloading from the iTunes Store. If you are still unable to get, then report the issue to the iTunes Store.
