We bought a movie on itunes and would like to play it on our TV screen. For that I wold like to transfer it onto a USB stick so I can play it directly on our TV. Its saying the file is too large for my stick although that is not true. What to do?

We bought and downloaded a movie from Itunes and trying to transfer it onto an USB some can play it back on a TV. We cannot move it onto the stick. It says the stick is too small but thats actually not the case. Rainer

Films from the iTunes store have digital-rights-management on them, they can only be played via a computer's iTunes or device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV). If you don't have Apple TV then do you have a iOS device, and the relevant cables, to connect it to your TV and apply it via the device - or if you bought it on a computer is that close enough (and you have the relevant cable) to connect it to your TV ?

Hi jltaylor6,
Welcome to the Support Communities! What is the size of your available iCloud storage? It sounds like this may be the issue in opening the document?

Hi, I have downloaded a tv episode from itunes and would like to copy it to a usb flashdrive to watch on my tv which has a usb port, can anyone tell me if this is possible please? I can see the tv episode in my Library but i can't drag to usb drive

Hi
I have downloaded a tv episode from itunes, I would like to watch it on my tv, not the computer.
My tv has a usb port, what I would like to do is copy tv episode to usb flash drive and then play on my tv.
I have tried dragging the episode from the library to the usb drive, I thought I had been successful but when I looked it was just text.
Can anyone advise if it is possible please ?

It won't work, they are linked to your account and can only be played via iTunes on a computer, an iOS device or Apple TV. You might be able to get a cable to link your Mac to your TV so that you can play/mirror it through your TV e.g. if it's a Macbook with an HDMI socket and your TV also has an HDMI socket then you could try an HDMI to HDMI cable (Apple do them, and electrical stores should also have them) - I've used one to play iTunes TV programmes on my TV (though I don't think that I got sound through my TV, only my Mac).

I bought a song on iTunes and it was downloaded on my ipad with an additional copy that does not play and can't be deleted. The song does not show up on on my ipad through iTunes. How do i get rid of the copy?

I tried wiping out my music but it's still there and it's annoying.

If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music...
Delete the Song(s) and re-download...

I bought a movie on itunes and when i try to play it on my apple tv it says the device is not autorized. My apple tv is the older one with an actual hard drive that is full. Tha apple tv is logged into my itunes account.

ATV2 does not have permanent storage. The rental is flushed when the device is turned off or other content accessed. You would need to use your computer to rent (and home-share to ATV) if you wish to store for a later time.

I bought a movie on iTunes and when it loads up I can only play the bonus features and not the actual film. The title screen is also glitched and merges with the scene selection. I don't think it downloaded properly. what can I do?

It happens sometimes. Delete the current copies, don't hide from iTunes in the cloud if prompted, close iTunes, reopen, download from iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
While downloading click the download icon at the top right and uncheck Enable simultaneous downloads. You may find it more reliable that way.

I bought a movie on iTunes and it plays half the movie and stops. I can not get it to play after it stops. What can I do to get it to play the rest of the movie?

Hi, Jjenjen30.
Thanks for the question and I believe we have a solution. The best option would be to delete the movie that is giving you an issue and redownload it via the iTunes store past purchase option. I have included a couple articles that will show you how to process these steps.

If this does not resolve the issue, then iTunes might need to be notified to let them know there is a problem with the content. I have included the steps on how to let them know.

I bought a movie on itunes and it will not play even after re-downloading it.

I bought a movie on itunes, it would not play. I contacted apple support people, and they told me to delete and re download it, I did that and it still will not play, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if my itunes isn't up to date, or maybe it's because I'm not trying to play it on an apple device. Whatever the case me be, I just really want to watch this movie, or get a refund.

You should be able to play films on windows computers, if it wasn't compatible with it (e.g. you should have got an error if you tried to buy an HD film on non-HD compatible computer).
The current version of iTunes is 11.4 - you can see if there are any updates available via the Help > Check For Updates menu option.
Or you can download the current version of iTunes from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
What happens when you try to play the film, and do other videos that you have in your iTunes play ok ?
If you can't get it to play but other videos play ok then contact iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
