  • HT204370 my screen is freezing regularly when I try to watch a movie I downloaded earlier from itunes to my laptop

    I downloaded a movie earlier today from itunes to my laptop but the movie and screen are freezing regularly, then catching up with itself, only for it to happen again 20 secs later.  I've checked with my broadband provider and they advise that my speed is 17mps.  Help!!

    I would start by turning home sharing off in iTunes and then turning it back on.  Next I would stop sharing on the apple TV and share again.
    Make sure the mac that hosts iTunes is awake when the apple TV tries to connect.

  • Firefox crashes when I try to watch a movie type youtube, has just installed nero and Nikon software on my computer

    Firefox crashes when I try to watch a movie type youtube, has just installed nero and Nikon software on my computer. This began shortly after I installed my new CD burner with Nero 9 burning software, about the same time I also installlerade my new Nikon camera software ViewNX2, I ran Avira scan and Microsoft Egan virus scan and they say everything is good in it, he reported a few times, I ran Avira scan of your computer and Microsoft's own Virus Scanning and they say everything is good in it, he reported a few times, tried again now and the sound is heard all the way but the image is still, therefore gentle freezes, got no number on the bug report so I can not say that. Also ask your pardon for errors in language that may be present but hope you understand anyway!

    It is not Apple that decides this. Since Apple is just the retailer, they do not own the copyrights to the content they sell on the iTunes store, if the copyright owner decides to remove something from the store that you have purchased Apple must abide by the terms of their licenseing agreements and remove it. Regretablly this also removes the items from your purchase history. This is why it is up to you to download and backup all of your purchases if you wish to maintain your investment.
    In the Apple KB article Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore and iTunes Store, and in many other places, it is clearly stated:
    It is recommended that you always back up your iTunes library in the event that a purchased item is no longer available on the iTunes Store. For more information about backing up your library, see this article.

  • When I stream a movie via Apple TV from my iPad Air into my Samsung TV, I'm getting the "soap opera" effect. This only happens when I use Apple TV, not when I view a movie directly through a cable channel. Is there a way to eliminate this effect?

    I'm having the same problem.  It's not an issue with my TV, i've turned this feature off.  I've tried playing with the ATV display settings but nothing works.  When I stream netflix from my Samsung bluray player, I don't get the soap opera effect, but when I stream any video from the ATV, the soap opera effect is there.  I'm thinking it's a choice that Apple made, but I really wish it could be turned off.  Not a lot of people are searching for this, because it can be easy to overlook, but it's driving me nuts!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router.

  • When I try to watch my photos on apple tv they show up out of order

    Hi donmac17,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  How are you streaming your photos from your computer to Apple TV?  Are you using Home Sharing, or are you using AirPlay with iPhoto or Aperture?

    With Apple TV (2nd generation or later), you can stream content to your home theater system from any iTunes library in your Home Sharing network. You can also stream digital photos stored on your computer.

  • Screen freezes when I try to watch downloaded movie

    I downloaded a rented movie and when I go to watch it the screen freezes. No controls come up or anything. No part of the page responds- not the minimize, close out, etc functionality is gone.
    Really the problem started when I downloaded a newer version of ITunes. I downloaded another movie that I couldn't watch since the sound wouldn't work. I was able to watch other DVDs in my laptop, so the problem is with Itunes only. Since that time, i wanted to see if I couldn't correct the problem by downloading Itunes again and then I downloaded Quicktime again- based on a recommendation I saw somewhere on the Apple support site. I also downloaded a TV show to test out my changes. Eventually after a while the show worked and actually still works, but this movie won't even play. This is the worst problem I've had so far.

    yall are ******* bull **** apple. "post on our site and we will help you." when u gunna help me... when my ******* warrenty expires?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

  • I purchased and downloaded a movie and when I it backed up to my computer it changed something and now when I try to watch the movie I get an error message that says "The request URL was not found on this server.? What do I need to do to correct it?

    I purchased a movie and downloaded it and when I conected my I Pod to my computer, now I get a message "The requested URL was not found on this server".   What do I do to fix it?

    Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive.  If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
    You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
    Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
    -Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
    -Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down.  You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
    -Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes.  Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked.  You can close Preferences now.
    -Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library.  iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
    Shouldn't have any more problems...

  • TS3297 When I try to watch a movie I have rented it says an error has occurred and it is not showing up I'm my check fr rentals

    When I try to play it it says error but has no code and its not showing up in my check for rentals

    Your phone needs more storage, buying storage on iCloud.com doesn't change that.
    Delete some of the stuff off of your phone, it's full.

  • HT1349 I rented a movie and have been unable to play. iTunes software just hangs when I try to watch the movie.

    i use iTunes on my PC running windows 7. I rented "Get him to the geek" and have been unable to play it fully. iTunes locks up a the task manager show its not responding (iTunes). I have tryed reloading it everything I can think of without success. I'm done now I can't spend all this time and energy to watch a movie. I really don't believe I should have pay for it as well.

    I have had this identical issue (on an Apple TV3) and was helped by Apple Support who guided me to go to the Settings Menu on the Apple TV and did a RESET. You will need to re connect to your WIFI and your iTunes account (passwords etc).

  • Is there a way to watch a movie purchased through iTunes from my iPad on my AppleTV?

    If I bought the movie through iTunes while using my iPad, is there any way to watch it on my TV using my AppleTV?

    Yes, indeed there is.
    Ensure that airplay is not disabled on your Apple TV and that both devices are on the same network. Then when playing the movie on your iPad, select the airplay icon in the control bar, tap it, select the Apple TV from the contextual menu that appears. The movie should now stream to your Apple TV.
