Why Can't I view purchased movies on my Tv using iPad mini and lighting to VGA adoptor

Why Can't I view purchased movies on my Tv using iPad mini and lighting to VGA adoptor

There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

  • How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    Hello and thanks for the answer.
    I meant by "not compatible" that all the solutions that I found on the web did not work, especially the "Microsoft exchange" one.
    Fortunately I found on the comments of the first website you mentioned the right answer for me, which I copy below:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
    Enter the following information in the fields:
    Server: google.com
    User Name: Enter your full Google email address
    Password: Your Google account password
    Select Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
    After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically.
    Additional Information
    Note: Make sure that SSL is enabled (under Advanced settings), and that the port is 443.
    If you are using application based special password go to https://accounts.google.com/Se... and instead of your password put that special code and u r done.

  • My question is that if I am using Mac and another friend of mine is using Ipad mini and her skpe isnt working and we want to share screens how can we do it through Ichat? Since on facetime screens cant be shared!

    Hi,
    You can't.
    Messages - the replacement for iChat in Mountain Lion and beyond will  do Screen Sharing  but only to the accounts it did in iChat 5 and 6  (actually it includes iChat 4 as well)
    That is to say in earlier version of iChat you could login to AIM and Jabber servers as well as enabling the Bonjour option to chat on your LAN.
    All these will do Video and Audio only chats which in turn means they will Screen Share.
    At iChat 6 an Yahoo option was added but it can only Text chat (it can't even send Files or Pics)
    This means only the Internet able accounts that login in to AIM or to a Jabber server  can Video and therefore Screen Share.
    The iMessages account will Invoke FaceTime if you use the Video icon during text chat.  (I.e. it is not Video inside the app like the AIM or Jabber accounts can do)
    NOTE.
    AIM includes Apple Issued Apple ID as Valid AIM Screen Names.
    Google Mail ID s can be used and Google Talk IDs with Messages as they run a Jabber server.
    Facebook allow you to create a Chat ID (Facebook Chat ID) which is also a Jabber server.

  • I just restore my used ipad mini and I can't activate it! Help me!

    I just buy used ipad mini from Saudi and after I get back to my country, I restore it using recovery mode! It still need old owner email account assword. The problem is I can't contact the previous owner because email I delivered for him/her was failed to deliver! It seems he/she deleted his/her email account! Now, my ipad mini are useless! Please help me! Is Apple Store Service can make it activate for me?

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

  • Why can't I play purchased movies on my Apple TV? And why does iTunes match not work on my Apple TV?

    I have an Apple TV (early 2012) and bought some movies in the iTunes store. Now, Apple TV doesn't let me watch my purchased content. I very well can listen to music I have bought in the iTunes store and watch the purchased movies on my iphone 6 (running the latest iOS 8) and on my MacBook Air (running the latest version of Yosemite). I can also rent movies on Apple TV and watch them - no problem at all.
    The other problem I have is that I activated iTunes Match on my Apple TV. But it doesn't work either. On my Mac and on my iphone - there's no problem. On Apple TV instead there is always appearing the message, that it will take a couple of minutes to setup iTunes Match  on Apple TV. Well... that is too nice to be true! It takes hours and even after that it doesn't work at all.
    I checked the forums and tried different things:
    1. Updating my Apple TV's software to the latest release
    2. Restoring all settings of my Apple TV and taking it offline (meaning: logging out of iTunes on Apple TV and taking it off power)
    3. Restarting my modem and router after half a minute break and taking it off power.
    4. Setting up Apple TV again and reconnecting it with iTunes and my WLAN-router.
    5. I also wanted to Airplay the screen of my MAC or iphone to Apple TV -> doesn't work (even though I can watch the movies on this two devices without any problems). Other content can be airplayed to Apple TV without any problems as well.
    -> Nothing seems to work!
    When I tried to play the moves the following to messages appear:
    1. iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later. (But Apple TV recognizes how much of the movie has been watched already. It indicates that it is connecting and authorizing... and after that the message above appears). OR
    2. Apple TV says that the movie will be ready to be watched in two hours from now... or that you have to chose a lower resolution, if you want to watch it any sooner.
    Does anyone face the same difficulties? And of course: Does anyone know any cure and salvation for my Apple TV? ;-)
    Thanks so much for your assistance!

  • Why can't I download or open tif attachments on my iPad Air and IPhone 5s in mail running 7.1.2?

    Why can't I open tif attachments on my iPad Air and IPhone 5s in mail running 7.1.2?
    Tap to Download icon flashes but does nothing.

    I just hooked this thing up to my computer and was able to load new apps and update via the app store that way, installing them onto the iPad via sync. Very annoying though as I cannot make in app purchases etc still.
    Wish apple wouldn't pull this kind of junk.

  • HT4743 Why can't I view purchased TV shows on my iPad?

    I purchased two seasons of one TV show using iTunes on my iPad, but the two seasons only appear on my Apple TV. I like watching on my 60" plasma HD TV, but it's a bear to carry with me, so I would love to watch on my Macbook Pro. Trouble is, the two seasons aren't available.

    I had same problem with brand new ipad whose OS I updated immediately upon purchase. Apple support gave me this fix (accidentally, in the manner of kicking the bushes to see if a bunny rabbit runs out)
    instead of going to "purchased" go to TV shows in the store as if you were going to buy a new one
    select the show or shows you have already bought
    this presents you a list of shows available for download, which you can select.
    Download begins, presto.
    his explanation was they've been doing a lot of updates lately and they shut certain functions down while that is happening.

  • HT3775 Why can't I view a .mov file with my Quicktime viewer?

    This is the message I get when I try to open and view the file:
    The document “Bowman Atlanta Evaluation 5-12.mov” could not be opened. The movie's file format isn't recognized.
    Please help...thanks!

    QuickTime is problematic with this files. Install VLC

  • Why can't I view purchased content, but other videos work.

    I have an Apple TV 2 and I've got a bunch of TV Shows, Music and Movies all downloaded onto my mac. Whenever I try to play content on my Apple TV 2 that I have bought from the store, it won't play, saying I don't have permission, etc. I can play it all just fine on my macbook, and everything else that isn't downloaded from the iTunes store works just fine.
    I'm not able to connect to the internet, so I think that's the problem, but should it be? Do I have to always be online to watch content on my Apple TV? That seems very unnecessary, also makes me less inclined to buy things from the store.
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Yes I think you may need to be conected to the internet to verify your content from time to time. the other thing you might try is de/re authorising your iTunes account on the mac.

  • Why can't I view QT movies in Safari (or any browser) after 7.1.3?

    Oddly, I only seem to be having this problem on my PPC eMac and not on the Intel MacBook.
    I guess I don't really expect an answer, as there seem to be loads of problems with this update and we'll likely all have to wait for a fix. But I thought I should throw my problem into the pot & give it a stir...

    Same problem here with a MacBook Pro.

  • HT201272 i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store.

    i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad mini. when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store. Is there something in settings on Itunes I need to change? I do not have cloud.

    Yes I am looking in the app store. When I look in Itunes on my computer and look at purchased apps it is there. And when I go on my other device and look at apps purchased all apps are there.
    The new ipad doesn't show any apps purchased when I click on apps purchased and when I search the app store it doesn't show it is purchased. I am wondering if I am just missing something...need to turn something on in options or something. Never had this problem with previous ipad when I set it up.

  • I have up dated my itune and now it will not play my old purchase movies. I have brought new ones and they work but my old purchases will not. Why and how can I fix it.

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.
