TS2755 Ipad2 - Video- cannot open Content is not authorized Help it worked once for Video

The first time that I transferred movies to my Ipad2  it worked fine they played now I get the message: Cannot open - This content not Authorized.

Hey dragonien,
Thanks for the question. Are you signed into the same iTunes account on your iPad that this content was purchased on? If not, let’s definitely do so:
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account

  • Ipad2 sd movie cannot open content not authorized

    Downloaded SD movie onto ipad2 and it will not open to play. Get the message Cannot Open: Content not authorized. Using current version of OS, other SD movies in library play fine.

    Was the download complete? Did you stop halfway through the download of the movie?
    If you did, that could affect the issue.

  • Some of the newer shows and movies on my IPAD 2 show "cannot open content not authorized"

    All of my library plays on my MAC and Apple TV, but some of the newer shows and movies on my IPAD 2 show "cannot open content not authorized" . If I download them directly to my IPAD they will play. iPad and MAC are all up to date. I have restarted the IPAD 2 and MAC multiple times.

    I have the opposite issue. I play my tv shows and movies on itunes off my computer but all I get is the audio. The picture shows up in flashes every couple of times but does not stay on. I have the most recent Itunes (7.6.1)available and am running Windows Vista. Any help available?

  • HT4095 CANNOT OPEN This content is not authorized.

    CANNOT OPEN This content is not authorized - I have downloaded many movies in the past through iTunes. This time I get this message and I have been unable to play two movies while on vacation. And this is the message I get :-( The only difference is an upgrade to the newest operating systems. Please help ! Thanks !

    So on a final note on this issue, Apple called me back as promised however it was an automated message not the person I dealt with previously, so all they did really was to save me from dialing their number as I had to explain myself all over again.
    They kept sending me "higher" to the next "senior" advisor who I thought would have more technical expertise than the one previous but this was not the case the last person I spoke basically told me (after making stupid excuses and trying to justify the issue because I was using "legacy" devices) that there was nothing he could do for me except to document the issue.
    Thats's strike 1 Apple....2 more and you're out!!

  • IPad is saying cannot play. Content is not authorized. Help!

    I downloaded a tv show on my ipad and It will not play the show.  It says Cannot open...this content is not authorized.

    Are you using the latest software on your iPad (iOS 7.0.4)?  If you are not, update your software as this often solves this problem.

    MAC PRO10.6.8 just downloaded file sent  5/2010 "BoogieWoogie" (1-wmv) I could play it then, but now it says I cannot open because its not in a format that Quicktime Player understands that I have to install addit'l software to open this type of file??? WHAT software and WHERE do I find it to download?

    Free VLC player for the Mac, check out the Icecast Radio Directory also
    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html
    And if it's copy protected then
    http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac/
    If anyone is running 10.8. or later, then they might have to right or control click on the installer or app to "Open" to bypass Gatekeeper controls at least once, then it learns it's a ok to be trusted program.

  • Video will not play on BBC site error message this content does not appear to be working .Help

    I have bbc news as home page after i updated to firefox 10 if i try to play embedded video i get the eror message [this content does not appear to be working] Help

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • In system settings 15 item are not accessible, get the message: cannot open it, is not possible on intel based MAC. Items like security, i cloud user and groups network and more

    in system settings 15 item are not accessible, get the message: cannot open it, is not possible on intel based MAC. Items like security, iCloud user and groups network and more.
    Genius bar told me to erase the harddisk and install OSX Maverick again. This has not changed the problems with the system settings

    You need to Repartition the drive as One partition which will erase all data from it and then reinstall OS X. then with the initial setup system you chose the language on the first screen that comes up. That sets the language for the whole system.
    There is no other way of completely removing certain information created by a previous owner. this hold strue whether you are selling or give a Mac to someone.
    To do the repartitioning you need to use the Online Internet Recovery system, if the Mac came with Lion 10.7 or above, or from the original system reinstall discs that came with it when it was new.

  • Message pops up when watching videos on my iPad the message says "this content is not authorized

    I get a message when watching videos on my iPad the message says "this content is not authorized and that I bought a season of a tv show and some episodes downloaded only because I didn't have enough space on my iPad to download the rest and I tried viewing that tv show on my iPad and that's when the message came up and with the movie as well

    Couple of questions
    Have you backed up to this computer before?
    Are those apps part of family sharing?

  • This content is not authorized, message in my rentals,and purchased Series and Movies

    I keep geting this message, This content is not authorized, on my series and movies

    I have this exact issue.  I am running 7.1.1 and it all worked perfectly when just running 7.0 back in February.  I have the problem on both my iPhone 4 and my iPad mini (1G).  The content I have imported myself from DVD's works fine.  The only content that doesn't work is what I purchased on iTunes. Movies, and TV shows, SD and HD. Nothing purchased works. It comes up as "Cannot Open: This content is not authorised." I've checked. I am logged in with the correct iTunes account for home sharing on both the iDevices and the Macbook.  I am running the latest iTunes and iOS versions... w. t. f.
    I have airvideo and have used it. I would prefer if this worked as advertised as it did mere months ago. 
    Things haven't changed on my tablets except for the upgrades...

  • I cannot open my email. All other functions work ok.

    I cannot open my email. All other functions work ok.

    Assuming that you mean that the Mail app isn't working properly as opposed to it not being able to download your emails due to account/password problems, then try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • 'This content is not authorized' issue playing back Movies on an iPad

    When my son tries to play a movie purchased from iTunes he sees, "Cannot Open: This content is not authorized." The movie was purchased on our home computer using my iTunes account and he's logged in under my credentials for Home Sharing, but all legally purchased content throws up this warning. Is there a work around?

  • I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1.  An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6.  If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates.  If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.
