TS1718 Post update, when I try to play movies/tv shows through iTunes only audio comes through. How do I fix this?

Just rented a movie from the iTunes store, which I have never had a problem with prior to this, and played it but the screen was black. Audio was coming through the whole time. I tried skipping around to see if maybe some parts of the movie didn't get downloaded correctly but that wasn't case. I tried playing other tv shows I have on my computer that I bought from iTunes and those won't play correctly either. I can only assume it was something involving this previous update. Any guidance on the matter would be appreciated.

When I try and play a tv show in itune on my computer through appletv it takes a very long time to stream how can I speed this up?

I am having trouble watching American Horror Story which I downloaded on itunes. It took hours to download, but once it did I went through my apple TV to play it and it has been streaming to for an hour and it is only half way done. I can not play it while it is streaming either. I can't believe this is the norm because if so no one would use it...
I've looked through trouble shooting and it talks about checking open TCP ports, but I don't begin to understand how to do that.
Can anyone offer any suggestion, tips or a source to fix the problem?

I can't transfer downloaded content from my macbook air to my external hdd, when i try to drag it into the hrd drive it wont go in how do i fix this ?

i can't transfer downloaded content from my macbook air to my external hdd, when i try to drag it into the hrd drive it wont go in how do i fix this ?

What format is the external HDD in? If it's NTFS (= proprietary Windows), then OS X can read it but not write.
Eventually copy all content from the drive to a safe place, the re-format. FAT32 is the format which both Windows and OS X can read and write.

App Store claims update for app I never purchased and then switches me to a russian account. When I try to buy with my account i get an unknown error. How can I fix this?

When I opened the Mac App Store on my White MacBook(2010 model running Lion), it told me I had an update for Angry Birds. I never bought the original Angry Birds for Mac, so I decided I'd buy it because I enjoyed it on the iPad. When I clicked buy, it had my email switched to a russian one and when I tried to buy the app on my account, I got an unknown error (4). I can buy other items on my account, but when I try Angry Birds it always returns the error. Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
edit: Sorry! Found the answer on a related discussion.

i have this too -- it's from trying to install pirated sw. I have no idea how to fix it -- even trying to buy a legot copy gives an error in the app store.

I tried to erase my ipod from settings but when i try to reboot it, it always freezes with the apple logo. How can i fix this and it doesn't even appear in my itunes?

I wanted to erase my ipod so i went on settings, then general and then i erased my ipod
but when the apple logo comes up, it just freezes right there and i try to reboot it but it keeps freezing
so how can i fix this? please help

Try a Safe Boot by Restarting and holding down the Shift key between the startup tone and the Apple logo w/pinwheel. It will take longer to boot up in Safe mode. If successful, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk > select your OSx disk and restart.

Some iTunes music content is listed as having been synced to my iPhone, however, when I try to access it on my iPhone, it's not there. How can I fix this?

I had a problem that some of the content I had purchased from iTunes was skipped over when I tried to play it on my iPhone. Music copied from CDs and some other content from iTunes worked fine. To try and fix this, I removed all the music from my iPhone and then added it all back on again. This worked for some of the content that was being skipped over, but now some of the content that was being skipped over doesn't appear on my iPhone at all.
When I open iTunes on my MacBook Pro and choose "On This Phone", there are 100 songs - all purchased directly from iTunes - that are listed as being on my iPhone but aren't there when I open iTunes on my iPhone. I also notice that you can't redownload purchased tracks from the iTunes store.
Please help. Thanks.

Answers to the similar "No Content" question seem to say I should turn off ZoneAlarm. However, I can't find this option in iTunes and some Googling suggests that ZoneAlarm isn't actually an integral part of iTunes anyway so that doesn't seem to have helped.

I accidentally deleted all the files inside Quicktime, and now when I try to import to iMovie it won't let me...how do I fix this?

What installer software package files? Could you tell me how to get there?
Afraid I'm not a mind reader. You have to download the installer packages from whatever source provides those installer packages. For instance, you would download the DivX installer package file from DivX. The Perian codec installer package would found at the Perian web site. QT "Pro" codec components installers may be include with older Motion or FCP Suite software or from the Apple site, etc., etc., etc. At this point all I know for sure is that that you have part of the DivX package installed and should reinstall the entire package if you plan to use it for anything.
Everyone's codec component configuration may be different depending on what codecs the need to use. Perhaps it would be easier if I provide an image showing the codec components installed on my Snow Leopard configured laptop:
This is a very basic set-up since I do most of my video work on my iMac which has FCP installed on it. In this case you can see:
a) AC3MovieImport.component (Apple)
b) AppleIntermediaCodec.component (Apple)
c) AppleMPEG2Codec.component (Apple)
d) Elgato Turbo.component (Elgato)
e) EyeTV MPEG Support.component (Elgato)
f) Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component (Telestream)
g) Flip4Mac WMV Export.component (Telestream)
h) Flip4Mac WMV Import.component (Telestream)
i) Perian.component (Perian)
j) x264Encoder.component (MacUpdate)
The first three codecs were installed by my System Installer w/iMovie package (i.e., pre-installed on system when purchased or added afterwards by iMovie). The Elgato codec installers came with with my Turbo H.264 and EyeTV hardware devices. (I you don't have such devices, then you don't needcan't use these codecs.) The WMV codecs were purchased from Telestream. The Perian codec was a free download from the Perian web site and is used for DivX, XviD, 3ivX, DTS, AC3, MKV, FLV, and other audio/video/file type support. (I.e., I don't use the DivX package.) The X.264 codec is a leftover from my old Leopard system and not really used much anymore since I now prefer using HandBrake GUI for most X.264 custom encodes.
At this point, would assume you need to rerun the Snow Leopard/iMovie Installer if you purchased the system with system pre-installed or purchased the it as a system upgrade. Another alternative would be to find another Snow Leopard OS platform and simply copy the missing Apple iMovie codecs from a working system to your non-working system. All other codecs are up to you. Only you know what third-party codecs were installed on your system. And if you don't remember, you will probably find out what you are missing every time you try to play a video containing an unsupported codec.
Since you seem to be very inexperienced here, you may wish to consider joining a local user group or seeking some one-on-one assistance from someone in your local area.

When I try to log in from desktop I get "Connection Refused" message. How do I fix this?

I tried to activate Mozilla Firefox today using the normal & routine method, clicking on the Firefox Icon.
Each time I tried I got the same message "Connection Refused".
I went to the Firefox site and read the message regarding disabling Java, so I opened ADD ONS and Plug Ins and disabled Java.
Still no change, so I shut down and restarted my computer.
I keep getting the same Connection Refused message.
What needs to be done to restore Firefox?

Another user also reported a problem with the AT&T Yahoo home page in the past few minutes. When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

I just installed iPhone 11 and when I try to play a slide show, it just blinks and and shows the whole group of pictures at once. I have done many slideshows with older versions of iPhoto. How can I fix this?

I just installed iPhoto from the iLife 11 and when I try to play a slide show, it just blinks and shows a whole bunch of pictures at once. I have done many slide shows with no problem in an earlier version of iPhoto. What can I do to fix this?

thats tough man, yeah exchanging it is the best option. But why do people always leave a message saying" i'll probably just by an ipod" and it's usually followed by, "even though i don't like apple or ipod" . I mean fine, if u feel like giving up on the zen micro thats fine, i personally don't care if you're going to buy an ipod. for god sakes ipod isn't even the next alternati've mp3 players, theres plenty. Are u just trying to get the creative people saying "oh man we lost another one to ipod" cuz i'm sure they don't lose sleep over u wanting to buy an ipod instead of a zen. *done ranting*

What is "a ping"?
Do all your songs have a check mark?
