Why can't I buy the movie "Tracers" on Apple TV?

So I watched the trailer of the movie "Tracers" then I wanted to BUY the movie on my AppleTV. The only option available is to RENT the movie on my AppleTV. Why can't I buy it? If anyone knows why this is please let me know.
Thanks

Some movies may only be available for rent or only available to buy at different times.
Tracers is currently only available to Rent. There's nothing to do but wait for the Studio / rights owners to make it available for purchase.

Why can't I buy the movie The Eagle on iTunes?

Does anyone know why The Eagle movie can not be purchased on iTunes?

Because the owners of the movie have not yet agreed to license it for sale in the iTunes Store. When, or if, they will do so, no one here can say. Amazon doesn't have it either, so it's apparently just not being licensed for download sale/viewing. You can express your interest here:

Apple may be able to use such feedback to try and convince the studio that it would be in their best interests to license the movie to the iTunes Store.

Why can't I buy a movie that I pre-ordered, with the iTunes card already redeemed?

See, I bought an iTunes card the other day and redeemed it that same day. After doing so, I pre-ordered a movie that was expected to be released on the 18th of March(today). So I tried to purchase the movie I pre-ordered with the credit I redeemed from the iTunes card, but it is asking for my billing information. So I clicked on the link where it says "To redeem code, click here", and it asked me to enter a code. My concern is why can't I buy that movie I pre-ordered with I the money I have in my iTunes account?

You didn't purchase the movie, you pre-ordered it. So the code works to put in the pre-order for the movie. So it's on hold, so to speak. Then when the movie comes out (and only then) are you actually billed, so you have to enter the code again in case you or someone else who has access to your computer used some -- perhaps too much of the credit in the meantime.
If I use a regular credit card and pre-order something, oftentimes there is some kind of perk or extra included along with it for me in return for pre-ordering. Like an extra feature for example. I don't actually get billed until I actually get the movie and so it's kinda like that.
Did you lose the code?
If you did, I'm sorry, but you could call Apple & hopefully they will make things right.

Why can't I buy HD movies?

Why can't I buy HD movies the same way I can buy HD TV shows?
Apple has now made it easy to buy HD TV shows (and with 2.2, via the Apple TV). You get an HD version for playback on your computer or Apple TV and an SD version for playback on your iPod. Why can't we do this for movies? After all, the HD versions are available to rent!
I am hesitant to buy movies from Apple as a result, because I would get better results buying the Blu-ray version. If I could buy them in HD, it would be a no-brainer.

I can understand why the studios would want to get the most they can out of selling HD movies. But by now they must be seeing the writing on the wall. iTunes and other online delivery services wrote the eventual death of hardcopy media long before the HDDVD/BluRay war ended. If I'm not mistaken (and I am on many occasions), didn't Microsoft and Netflix announce an online delivery partnership shortly after HDDVD threw in the towel? The only hardcopy media of any kind I have purchased since I got my AppleTV are shows and movies that I collect.
I would venture a guess that it's only a matter of time before HDTVs start coming with internal hard drives and wireless capability. In the next ten years or so, the way we watch movies and TV shows will change drastically, and the only reason for broadcast/cable TV will be to watch live events like news or sporting events. But they too will eventually be coming via online sources as well. The broadcast networks are going to have to make major changes in the way they do business and how they deliver their product in order to remain viable.
HD movie sales will be available soon enough. It's only a matter of time.
98 cents change, please.

Nobody here can even begin to hazard a guess with the limited amount of information that you provided. Contact iTunes Store Support and ask them.

Why can't I buy a movie in original language (english) because I live in Switzerland?

I really grinds my gears that I'm restricted to mostly German, French or Italian for the choice of the language of the movies I want to watch. I have to check every movie to make sure it is available in english, and I can only see that information on iTunes on my computer, which also ****** me off.
Apple, please do something about it. Why can I buy a DVD which will automatically have the original version in it, and not be able to buy a movie from iTunes without having to make sure it is in english when the movie WAS MADE IN ENGLISH...?

Because the movie studios released the movie to Apple with only those languages available.

Also, you should write the movie studios and tell them you want iTunes releases to be released with the original language as well as the language of the country it is released in.

SONY SLT A77 AVCHD downloaded to iMac (Mountain Lion-OS 10.8.2) via iMovie. Why can't QuickTime recognize the movie?

I have a new SONY SLT A77 Camera. I did some test movies using AVCHD format and downloaded it to my iMac with MacOS 10.8.2 via iMovie '08. When I tried to open the clip from the iMovie Events File, QuickTime 10.2 (603.6) failed to recognize the movie format. Why?

This is tricky dick! I have my HP-6L laserjet working with my iMac! I am using a Sabrent USB to 36-pin parallel cable. I downloaded the glutenprint 5.2.9 driver and installed it! The laserjet is working flawlessly!

Why can't I buy HD movies on iTunes for Windows?

Hi,
Was hoping someone could help me with an issue I'm having trying to purchase HD movies on iTunes using a Windows 7 system.
When trying to purchase the movie in HD, I get the following message:
The thing is, I was able to buy 3 HD movies previously, but over the last few months, it hasn't been working. When I close the above window, it takes me to the system requirements, which I think I have.
Windows System Requirements for HD content:
32 or 64-bit version of Windows 7; Windows XP and Vista do not support HDCP
iTunes 10 or later
2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or faster processor
At least 1 GB of RAM
A video driver that supports HDCP (you may need to check with the manufacturer to determine if your video driver supports HDCP)
A display that supports HDCP with a screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher with a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI)
Here are my system details:
Windows 7 Home Premium
Dell Inspiron 537S
Pentinum (R) Dual-Core CPU ES300 @ 2.60GHz 2.60 GHz
4.00 GB RAM memory
64-bit Operating System
iTunes 10.4
The only ones I'm not sure about are the last 2 bullets. I called Dell and I was told I didn't need a new monitor, but just a video card. I didn't trust the representative's answer too mcuh.
Does anyone know what I'm missing to be able to purchase HD movies?
If it helps, the movie I was trying to purchase was Transformers: Dark of the Moon
Thank you!

Do you have?
A video driver that supports HDCP (you may need to check with the manufacturer to determine if your video driver supports HDCP)
A display that supports HDCP with a screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher with a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI)

Why can't I buy the E52 in white?

It's listed as an available colour on the website but I can only buy the ugly aluminium through the Nokia online store. Pretty stupid listing four different available colours when you can only buy one.
Is there any other way I can purchase this phone in white from an authorised re-seller in the UK?

What happens when you try?

Why can I neither change the movie language nor the subtitle??

Hi there,
I did all the setting change in "Audiosubtitle" and "Audio", but nothing happens with the movie Jonny English; cannot whatch it in English.
When watching the movie and when I push the center button it also doesn't bring up the menue to chose the language.
Please help!

This is not possible. The timestep for the model is fixed and compiled into the model. You can do things like trigger model subsystems based on an input value or some event within the model.

Why can't I buy the Ipod 2.2 software update and Itouch/Phone applications?

Why cant I buy the new touch update and applications with money from an itunes giftcard? I bought a 25$ giftcard from max hoping I would have the 2.2 update and a few applications minutes from the purchase.
Now im being told by technical support that I need a credit card set up on the account to buy the update and applications. What a rip off. Now im left with an Itouch that doesn't do what I want and even when I get a credit card on my account to get the apps I will have 25$ dollars which I have to spend on there Itunes overpriced crap songs.
I will be trying to get a refund on this but I just want to know how does this inconvinence for the consumer at all benefit Apple? Is it because a gift card is a predetermined purchase thus making it less likely for consumers to spend more?
To top it all Itunes does not even have a customer support phone line. What a disappointment.

More info: "iTunes Gift Cards Terms and Conditions" (Canada)
"This card is redeemable only on the iTunes Store for the Canada. To redeem this card you must have an iTunes Store account, subject to prior acceptance of license and usage terms.

Why can't I buy the marvel creative stylus in uk

It seems that here in the UK we are classed as second class citizens, where Apple are concerned.
Just try and buy the Marvel Creative Stylus !

Is it Apple that decides what to sell or the wholesaler? You can buy the Disney Creative Stylus from the UK and you can download the Marvel Creative Style iPad app for free. I say download the free app and buy a cheap stylus.
