Why can't you download TV shows on iTunes.NZ ?

Why can't you download TV shows on iTunes.NZ ?

Thanks for that.
It seems odd that you can log onto TVNZ TV on demand and watch programmes directly on your computer and yet they won't let them be channelled through the Apple TV.
The Apple TV would be more use if it could access TVNZ [ say ] and play the episodes from there instead of having to go through iTunes.
I am a bit cross that Apple market the Apple TV with what it can do in US and yet it wasn't made clear that in New Zealand it is a virtually useless piece of kit.
I have been buying Apple products since 1985 and this is the first time I have been dissatisfied.
Having said that it may not be the fault of the product !! Just the country in which I am trying to use it.
That is another oddity in that New Zealand prides itself in being a World Leader in EFTPOS and internet banking and yet is so abysmal at entertainment sharing !
A very compliant nation where having fun is frowned upon !

    Apple tend to provide regular updates with access to more content, they have added PBS and Yahoo in the last few days.
    Nobody here will have any information about future updates since the community is only made up of users like you or I. Anything else is mere speculation and speculation is not permitted here under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Any responses you may receive may well be removed and would be wholly unreliable in any case.
    If you believe that Apple's product may be enhanced in anyway you can leave feedback here.

  • Why can't I download latest version of iTunes in Windows 8?

    Why can't I download latest version of iTunes in Windows 8?

    Hey gallaleo3,
    First, if you already haven't, try downloading the latest version here:
    www.apple.com/itunes/download
    Then, if you have issues installing it from there, I would use the recommended steps in here:

  • Why can't I download music to my iTunes???

    For years I could download music to my iTunes without buy songs from iTunes Store. But every since I update to this new iTunes 5 months ago now everything has change. Now I can't download my music to iTunes only if I buy songs off on itunes which I HATE. There are LEGAL sites were you can download music for free like Bandcamp.com, DatPiff.com, Livemixtapes.com, and etc. So how come I can't download this songs from these site when it is 100% LEGAL. If anyone can help me this problem I would really appericate it a lot. Thank You.

    Inked,
    Download the file to your computer in the normal fashio, which does not require iTunes.  Make sure the file is in a valid music format, which usually means MP3.  (If you have any doubts, see if it plays in another music player on your PC, such as Windows Media Player or Winamp.)
    Once you know it is a valid music file, drag it into your "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder, which is found in your iTunes Media folder.

  • Why can't you purchase stuff from the itunes store if you're not in that country? I'm in South Africa and most of the best things I want to download are on the US itunes, so I try switch to it but it won't let me download or purchase? I don't get it?

    I don't get why? What's the harm if you're in a different country? We all pay the same way and the internet was made to connect people over the world, stuff is downloaded from different global destinations millions of times a day. So what's the point of having an itunes store and App Store that limits you to the boring stuff in your own country? You read about these great app's, bands etc and find them in search engines, you have all the Mac products, but then you can't use them coz of where you're currenlty living? It's like a horrible tease!
    Is there a way around this? Or what can be done in order to access the things I want?
    Any advice, suggestions anyone?

    The reason is licensing - artists/record companies/TV networks/movie distributors all have separate licensing deals in different countries (or no licensing deals at all). It isn't mysterious or secret.
    The only way around this is to have an iTunes account in the other country - either a valid credit card with billing address in that country, or an iTunes gift card from that country (though you'll still be asked for a billing address in the country for which you've purchased the card).

  • HT201272 Why can't I download my music from iTunes onto my ipod?

    I got a new laptop computer, downloaded iTunes on it and retrieved my music from my old computer into this iTunes.  However, now I cannot download new music or any music for that matter onto my iPod nano.  I can sync music from my iPod to my computer but not the other way around.  Even re-registered my iPod again, but this does not seem to matter.  What am I doing wrong?  Never had this problem before.  My computer has Windows 8 if that makes a difference.

    The people who answer here are just users like yourself, and how long it takes depends on who is around and happens to see your post. You can't expect an immediate answer, though you might be lucky and get a quick one - but it might take some hours or even a day or so.
    However, you've posted in the forum for Producing Podcasts - heaven knows why - which is not in any way related to your question, and so which reduces the likelihood of anyone who knows the answer seeing your question. I've asked the Hosts to move your posts to the iPad forum.

  • Why can't i download new versions of itunes on my PC?

    I can see from the amount of discussion on the net that this is a major problem and I have tried all the suggestions I can find (delete cookies, download Quicktime separately etc) but I am starting to get very frustrated as I can't get any music on my (now) 3 month old ipod. Plus I have just bought my son a touch and he can't figure it out either.
    Any suggestions?

  • Why can't I download podcasts into my iTunes on my phone?

    The Podcasts app is not installed on “iPhone”, so you will not be able to play podcasts on your iPhone. The app only works with celluar data, which I pay for, and i need a connection so I can't listen to them on a plane. BS.

    No, there is another issue at work. Those of us who have our desktop/laptop download the podcasts and then sync the phone to auto transfer the podcasts without streaming and eating our data are the ones experiencing this. I was also experincing this when trying to manually transfer them. The podcasts will play in the app via cloud, but not if they were transferred.
    There is a temporary fix, if weird and user intensive, where you select the podcast episode (or select all for my entire library that wouldn't load), get info, an under options select media kind "podcast". For some reason, this has broken in apple's back end where new podcasts are loaded as music. Pretty stupid since this is the setting that determines if it is loaded into the music player, or the podcast app....
    Hopefully apple fixes this soon.

  • Why can't I download a song in iTunes?

    I bought an album of songs on iTunes, downloaded it, but one song didn't successfully download. Unfortunately, itunes thinks it did download, so I can't download it again.

    Hello davhorns,
    You may need to delete the existing item in your iTunes library, and then redownload it from the iTunes store.

  • Why can I only download 25 mb of itunes 10.6 and at 25.1 mb, it resets and starts over again????

    This is making me want to throw the iphone, the iMac, the windows pc (because it has itunes on it) and anything else related to apple into the freaking ocean and even stop eating apples.  I have been searching the web rying to find answers and always get sent to the "support" community.  Jock straps and bras are support... this community is a place for frustrated users to vent--thats it!  I never once seen anyone from apple get on here and help out.  The only support you get from apple has to be bought.  I don't even know why I am complaining about free software...IT'S FREE, hence the lack of apple support.  Oh well, I will just add the 5 minutes of wasted time I used to type this to the hours and hours of wasted time I have spent dealing with this.  I hope everyone here (besides apple "support team" has a great day, night or whatever it may be where you are.

    Had you bothered to read the terms of use that we all agreed to when signing up to post here, you would have seen explicitly that this IS a user to user technical support forum and Apple has no presence here.
    Think you could stop ranting for 2 minutes, pull your head out of your rear-end and provide some details of the issue you're having?

  • Why can't I download Photoshop CC(2014) and why does my Creative cloud app show updates for CC(2014) products I do not have?

    Why can't I download Photoshop CC(2014) to my Mac Pro desktop running OSX 10.9.3.  My Creative Cloud app shows updates for all apps that I have as CS6 on my desktop but I have only subscribed to Photoshop CC.  Lightroom shows Install but it is installed.  Trying to Install Photoshop CC(2014) results in and error message "Installation failed Errors encountered during installation.(7) more information.

    I also cannot directly download from my account on the web.  This has been going on for a week or more and I have tried numerous suggestions on the forums but got nowhere.  I uninstalled Creative Cloud app today but could not find the installer again so I assume that was deleted.  I cannot download that now as on Adobe's site it says we are experiencing problems.  Aren't we all.
    I was happy with CC until last week but now cannot recommend it.
    I also have a Macbook Pro retina and Photoshop CC(2014) downloaded no problem on that.
