Using movies bought on iTunes for PS3

Hey all. Would really like to know if there's a way to play/save movies bought on iTunes onto a PS3. The file type the movies come in is (.m4v), which isn't playable on PS3s. I have Quicktime pro, yet you aren't able to change its file type ('export') into a compatible one for the PS3. (Probably due to copyright violations..). Just wondering if there's something i've missed.. Something i didn't hear.. Or if i should be asking help from Apple or Sony.. haha.. greatly appreciated, thx!

i was simply stating they can be played if remuxed, or demuxed
Which they can't be when purchased from the iTunes Store.
but only if they are not encrypted by itunes
Which they are, as we said.
can you save the movie and re-rip it with out the encryption?
No.
especially since the new itunes plus allows you to use the movie almost anywhere due to it being drm free now?
iTunes Plus only applies to music and a few videos. Feature films are not available without copy protection and probably won't be anytime in the foreseeable future.
Again, movies purchased from the iTunes Store cannot be played on any non-Apple player, period.

    my daughter wants to move some of her music she bought on itunes for her shuffle to her new ipod touch.  how do i get this going?

    The music should still be in her iTunes Library - the one she uses to put music on the Shuffle. Simply connect the new iPod to that iTunes library, make the choices she wants for syncing the music to the iPod (which I guess, may now include putting all her music onto the iPod, since it has more storage capacity) and press Sync.
    Future Syncs with that Library will cause any changes of the Library to be copied to the iPod. Note that music is (or should be) copied to the iPod, not moved. There are two reasons for having the music in the Library:
    makes it easier to put the music onto a newer iPod, such as now;
    if or when the iPod needs a Restore, which will delete everything from the iPod, you will need to copy "the Library" back onto the same iPod.

  • How many thousands of Apple TV users have to scream their complaints before Apple will respond to the fury over the impossibly slow download speeds of movies bought through iTunes??????

    How many thousands of Apple TV users have to scream their complaints before Apple will respond to the fury over the impossibly slow download speeds of movies bought through iTunes?

    As jules says, your rate (currently at least) may be slow.
    If it used to be good I wonder is your ISP is slowing ('throttling') your speed after you've used so many GB of a quota each day or month - check what they think you should be getting as a download speed.
    While Apple's servers do occasionally play up, it's generally the ISP being slow not Apple.
    If you're using Google's DNS servers that has caused issues for some.
    Recommended speeds for near instant playback:
    SD         2.5Mbps
    720p      6 Mbps
    1080p    8 Mbps
    Is your speed test from somewhere like speedtest.net?
    It might be helpful to post Mbps to ensure we/you are not confusing speeds by using different units to those measured.

    Hello,
    First of all, would you kind enough tto excuse my bad Engloish, I'm ,in Paris, france.
    I m using a desktop pc HP, windows 8.1, 64 bits.
    I bought 22 movies on Itunes store as well as music.
    I called Apple France to have an explanation to sychronise my music on mu Ipod Shuffle. They helped me a lot and I have no problem with music
    nevertherless, concerning movies, also bought and dowloaded( 22 movies), at the beginning I jad no problem to ,read them but :
    Another day, i called Apple France again because it took too lo,n,g, to dowloaded the movies and I wanted to optimize mApple on my pc. Theyntold me they nhad problems and couldn't ansxwer within 2 days. So, I got lost completely when I tried to watch one and a window opened and said that the movie couldn't be located and if I wanterd to ,know where it was located.
    I tried with other movies, because I was afraid to loose anything and they still were on the library.But no way!
    13 were not located and the same window openes each time I tried; At the end 13 of my films disappeared.
    Do you know how to solve this. They are bought, downloaded and suddenly 13 of them ,were ??? in the air or somewhere on the pc.
    Then I tried everything to get them back and to be able to watch them. I downloaded Icloud, another version, of itunes (which was the same) I updated each time they asked me to.
    Now, when I talk to them on the phone : no answer which could help me.
    Desesperately need help.

    First there is no need for five threads on the same topic. You can bump the original if it has fallen off the front page of threads without any attention. The relevant forum for this topic is iTunes for Windows, not some of the others you have posted to. Don't include your email address in your posts. I have asked the hosts to remove it.
    Whether or not you live in a region where repeat downloads are allowed you should always make your own independent backups of your media. The copyright holders may exercise their rights to remove content from the store at any time, after which you cannot download a fresh copy. Strictly speaking iTunes contracts to deliver one copy of the purchase to you. If you lose it thereafter it isn't necessarily their concern which may be part of the reason you have having trouble using their telephone support service.
    Have you tried looking inside the media folder for where the content ought to be? Or searching the entire computer for one of the lost titles? If you select a "missing" item and press CTRL+I, say no when asked to locate it, and then look on the summary tab where does iTunes say the file should be?
    According to iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability France is one of the countries where Movies can be download again, provided they are still on sale in the store. If iTunes has a broken entry for a particular file it still assumes you have it and therefore won't offer to let you download it from the Cloud. With iTunes closed backup your iTunes Library.itl file from your iTunes folder so you could restore it if needed, then delete one of the broken entries from the library. Close iTunes again, then reopen. Go to iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Movies > Not on this computer. Your movie should be there. Download it. Backup your entire library to another drive. Delete the other broken entries and download fresh copies. Update your backup, Update it again after each purchase or addition to your library.

  • Lost movies bought on itunes

    As i changed my computer i lost the short movies i bought on itunes.Where are the movie files in the itunes files(name?) and how can i get it back or is it lost...Itunes is deffinitely not a sure system when changing computer(even by using the automatic transfer by starting my new mac).As i have the movies on my ipod , can i put them back from my ipod to my computer or is this forbiden and restricted???All this tells me buying this DRM files with control by apple is not a safe thing.....!Thank's for help.

    Did you authorize your new computer with your iTunes account? You need to do that to play previously purchased downloads, after if you've copied/migrated them to your new computer (and you can have up to 5 computers authorized at a time). Go to iTunes > Store menu > Authorize Computer.
    Movies are stored in yourhomefolder/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library/Movies. TV Shows are stored in yourhomefolder/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library/TV Shows.
    Hope this helps...

  • Authorizing computers and devices to use songs bought through iTunes

    So I've bought numerous songs through iTunes for use on my ipod and ipod nano. I authorized some of the songs for my boyfriend's computer. Between us, there are 2 authorized computers. The max that you can authorize is 5. My problem is, I've had to reformat my computer and so has my boyfriend. Each time doing so, I believe iTunes counts the computer as a new authorization. Now, I can't even play some of the songs because I have maxed out my authorizations. This is ridiculous because I have spent so much money doing things the legal way only to be "jipped." Any solutions on how I can fix my iTunes to realize that my computer and my boyfriend's computer aren't new authorizations? How do I play my music? Please help.

    Thanks for the reply but I tried that with no luck. I tried to deauthorize my boyfriend's computer but it says his computer is not authorized. I don't know what happens when the computers get reformatted but somehow, it takes up the authorization count. I didn't realize I had to deauthorize before I reformat. Now I don't know how to undo this situation.

  • Sharing music bought from iTunes with PS3

    Hi people im trying to share music ive bought from itunes with my PS3 but it doesn't recognise the mp4a tag so is there a way i can convert the tag to id3 without having to convert all my music files to mp3?

    How can I download tracks I bought for my
    gandaughter from my iTunes library onto her iPod
    without erasing all her other music. She has her own
    folder on my iMac G5. Can I transfer music from my
    iTunes library into her iTunes library?
    Apologies if this topic has been covered elsewhere,
    but If it has I can't find it.
    Simplest (lowest hassle factor) method is to burn the tracks to CD (as mp3) and import or add them to her iTunes library.

  • Corrupted Movie bought in iTunes Store!

    Hello, I've downloaded a movie I bought in iTunes Store.
    The movie at 30 minutes before the end stops and it is impossible to see more.
    Now, even if the file seems corrupted, and I've backuped into my Mac, there's no solution to see the last part of the movie.
    And if I try to download again from iTunes Store I have to buy it again!
    So, where is the solution??
    I've bought a movie and it is corrupted! And I can't enjoy the last part!! it is better having phisical DVDs!!
    The movie in question is "TENGO GANAS DE TI" in iTunes Store SPAIN, SD quality.
    PLEASE tell me a solution!
    Yasmine.

    Contact iTunes customer service and explain the problem.  Is Spain one of those countries that does not permit repeat downloads?

  • Can't move movies bought from iTunes to iPhone

    I just bought one movie off of itunes and rented another. I want to put them on my iphone so that my kids can watch then on a flight. I was able to move the rental onto my iPhone no problem, but when I try to drag the movie I purchased onto my iPhone it won't drop onto the iPhone. I don't get the "+" icon showing that it can be added to the iphone. Any ideas?
    Thx

    I have the same problem. Movies and tv shows downloaded from itunes will not work if they are longer than 25 minutes. The guy at the 14th st Genius bar said that all is well with both computer, nano and software so "we're calling it a usb problem". Do you have an older model mac or pc?

  • Exporting 1080p fcp movie to 720p itune (for ipad)

    Compressor so slow to export movie 1080p to itunes... I found it 10 times faster to simply export my 1080 prores422, then import it in imovie and send the video to itune via imvoie. I use a mac pro 6core 3,33 ghz with 24 gb RAM... Is it normal compressor so slow? Is there something I am doing wrong?

    This will speed up compressor considerably.

  • Movie rentals in iTunes for PC and iPad.

    Can I view movie rentals in iTunes through bought PC and iPad2?  Currently have rented a movie on PC thinking I would be able to pull it up on the iPad but I don't see it in iTunes.

    After transferring the rental to the iPad - The movie will show up in the videos app on the iPad - not in iTunes.
    You have to "move" the rental to the iPad from iTunes. You do this while connected to the computer and with iTunes running just like you do when you sync. But you have to select "move" instead of just simply syncing the rental to the iPad.
    Copied from this web site
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1390
    Connect the device and select it in iTunes.
    Click the Movies button.
    Select the movie, and then click Move.
    After all movies have been moved, click Apply in the lower-right corner of iTunes.
    You must be connected to the Internet to transfer a rented movie.
