While downloading a movie my computer shut down and when I logged back into iTunes i went to find the movie and have no idea where it is. what do I do?

i dont know where to look

If the device has been used as designed, the pics and via taken with the device would have regularly been copied off to a computer.
The first step in the update process via iTunes on the computer is a backup.
Restore the device from the most recent backup.
If data is lost, then it is merely the fault of the user for not backing up the device or saving their data regularly.
Once the device is in recovery mode, the ONLY option is to restore.

I am a new at this. I just rented and downloaded a movie, clicked out of iturnes and now when I go back into itunes, I don't see a way to play the movie that I just downloaded ten minutes ago. I just want to watch it on my laptop.
Help.

Welcome to the Apple Community Vane_paranormal.
If you rent a movie on your phone, you have to watch it on your phone, likewise if you rent it from the Apple TV you will have to watch it there.
If you want to watch a rental on multiple devices, rent it from a computer.

When you purchase an HD video on a supported device or computer, only HD video will be downloaded. To download the SD version, you need to download the video again from your Purchased page. Conversely, if you purchase an HD video on an unsupported device, the SD version will be downloaded. Then, you will need to download the HD version from your Purchased page.

I did force shutdown on my MacBook Pro (2006 year, 15.4"), so, when I tried to boot, it shows apple logo (as usual) and shuts down. When I booting MacBook with Option key pressed it shows lock icon and field for password. Please help me.

Wait for advice on repairing a damaged filesystem. Forceshutdown stops processs in mid-stream and leaves some parts not-valid.
Do not proceed until you get that avice.

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
Its wrong to assume that everyone has a backup copy.
are you PC or Mac?

Hello Mariola,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iTunes purchases. I recommend downloading your purchases directly to your computer using the Purchases page in the iTunes Store:
Download previous iTunes Store purchases to an authorized computer
Click iTunes Store near the top of the iTunes window.
Click the Purchased link at the right of the iTunes Store homepage (below Quick Links).
In the page that appears, select a category.
iTunes shows you which of your purchases are available for download. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download. If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you’re viewing by album, click an album to see which songs on it are available for downloading.
To download all available items, click Download All.

Firefox closes when I shut down, but when it is running, I can't see it on the monitor or find it in the Task Manager.

When I open Firefox, nothing seems to happen. It doesn't appear on the monitor and the Task Manager doesn't list it as running. But when I shut down the computer, Firefox must be closed before shut down can be completed.

The "System Tray" is located at the very bottom right of your screen and is a list of most/all running applications that will show in this list.
For your SysFader issue, this "may" be the problem:
1 Find the "My Computer" desktop icon and right-click it. A pull-down menu will appear. Select "Properties."
2 Click on the "Advanced" tab. This will load a new page of options.
3 Select the "Visual Effects" tab at the top of the window and deselect "Animate Windows when minimizing and maximizing," "Fade or slide menus into view," "Fade or slide Tool Tips into view" and "Fade out Menu items after checking."
4 Click "OK." This will remove most if not all of the Sysfader effects, at the same time correcting related errors that used to come up during opening a new file or program.

Computer Crashed,how do I get music back into itunes w/o erasing Ipod?

My computer crashed, and I had to get a new hard drive. I was able to save all of my music on cd, and it is all still currently on my Ipod. I have downloaded Itunes again, but how do I upload all the music on my ipod into Itunes without it automatically erasing my Ipod when I plug it in? Am I able to save my play lists when I reload my music to Itunes?
Dell PC Windows XP

If you are using the iPod in manual update mode it is safe from being accidentally erased when you connect to an empty iTunes after reinstalling your operating system. However if your iPod is set to automatically update you will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press *No*. Pressing "Yes" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual.
You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys (on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘) keys). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. Then go to Preferences>iPod and check the "Manually manage songs and playlists" box: Managing Your Songs Manually
While you can't sync your music back from an iPod to iTunes, if you want to check this out, there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the files from an iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward and will copy songs and playlists.
iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
PodPlayer Windows Only
iGadget Windows Only
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again.

Does anyone know why imac shuts itself off when importing a cd into itunes?

very, very frustrating and disappointing. trying to import a music cd into itunes, left room, returned to find that the computer had turned itself off, disc still inside. started computer back up, cd was still on desktop, started itunes but the cd did not appear in itunes. searched and found all but one song had been imported, directed itunes to import that one track and itunes ballooned. had to force quit and force eject cd. this has happened before, but not for a while. i just don't understand why it just can't work. this is supposed to be such wonderous, and awe inspiring technology (what a supreme joke!), and the only thing that any of this technology is good at is collecting information and advertising. this is not just a mac problem, i've noticed that windows users are having the same issue. ridiculous.
imac, 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, mac os x 10.6.8 (i know, it's old, but should still work!)

Hi again Susy!
As that website says, I would recommend following these steps to determine if there is an issue or not:
After listening to the example sounds, if you feel that your optical disc drive is making noises in excess of these examples during normal operation, please contact AppleCare for assistance.

While working in iMovie, computer shut down and all imported clips from that project disappeared. The project still existed, with titles, but all video clips were gone from the movie as well as the computer library.

Clips were imported from SD card into iMovie project. While working on the project, computer shut down. When restarted, all clips from that event were no longer in the project, or in the computer library. Project existed, with titles, but blank spaces exist where clips had been.

OH MY GOD! This EXACT thing just happened to me! It didn't save my event and didn't show the date in the iMovie library but if I look under all projects, the project is there. Except that there are little blank place holders where all my clips were. Also the title of the project has a little yellow "!" symbol next to it which I can only assume means that the file is corrupted.
I can't believe it destroyed like 8 hours of work!
I have a 15" mid 2011 MBP and Mavericks OS.

Computer shuts down when importing

Hi everyone.
I've been having a big problem with ripping music from CDs onto my computer (using iTunes, of course). It seems that every time I begin importing a CD, my computer shuts down. There is no warning, no sound, no blue screen. The computer simply turns off. It does this at no other time, only when I am importing a CD. It's very frustrating, and has only recently been occuring. I've uploaded over 20 gigs of music before this with no problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gordon

Are you sure your laptop isn't overheating? Mine can when doing things like importing/burning CDs (but not necessarily while doing other things like surfing the web unless I'm on for a long time). Like you said, my laptop would just click off with no warning or anything. I know you say you've imported music before, but since you have a laptop I imagine you've been moving it around and recently you may have moved it to a spot that isn't as well ventilated. After several instances of a burned lap and not so burned CDs, I finally figured out that was my problem ...

When opening my session, my computer shuts down

Good morning;
I have had this problem for two hours now and I am very worried. When I turn on my computer, everything goes well, I click on my session icon, type my password, and the computer starts loading it. However, it goes very slowly, and every time, at approximately 25/30%, the computer shuts down.
Thanks for your help;
Victor

Thanks a lot, I actually spent the day with the technical services of my college and we ended up wiping out everything and installing a new version of OS, but thank you for your answer!
