Why do I get standard definition videos when i order hd

When I order HD movies or TV shows from the iTunes Store I get both both HD and SD. Why is this? Why waste space on my HDD with a lesser quality movie or TV show?

I'd like to avoid downloading the SD videos. My iPhone and iPad play HD format movies and TV shows so I don't see why I need to clog up my bandwidth and HDD space with the SD versions I'll never watch.
Is there a preference in iTunes I can set to avoid the SD versions?

Why do I get "generic error" message when trying to upload a self-created, 1hr .wmv file?

I went through the forums and made sure that any blocks or copywrites weren't triggered by the file, it's clean and can be opened using a media player and other video editing software like windows MovieMaker. I keep getting "The importer reported a generic error" message and have no idea how to proceed. Can someone please help?

Re: Why do I get "generic error" message when trying to upload a self-created, 1hr .wmv file?
This ARTICLE starts with a checklist on setting up a computer to run PrE best, then goes into a series of links for tuning up one's computer and OS, and then links on troubleshooting.
There is also a link on posting all necessary info, to help others help you.
Without knowing much more about your system, it is impossible to say much beyond that WMV's are tough assests to work with, requiring a lot of CPU horsepower.
Good luck,

Why am I getting a -50 error when moving music to my iTouch?

As Jim as stated, you do not want the OS, video app, and media all competing for hard drive access.
It may have worked before, but that doesn't mean will work henceforth, as you have learned.
A FW800 portable drive will cost about $75.00.

Using 4:2:2 Uncompressed standard definition video with FCE 4.0

Hi all,
I'm preparing to get some old Super 8 Film converted to Digital Video. I'm looking at a transfer that ends up as 4:2:2 Uncompressed standard definition video on a USB Hard Drive. Has anyone had any experience with this format using FCE 4.0.1?
I'm running a MAcBook Pro, OS 10.6.2, 2.4 Ghz Intel Core Duo, 4GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM.
Cheers,
Doug

Not with FCExpress.
You didn't say what format/codec you plan on using, but FCE works with DV-NTSC and Apple Intermediate Codec, both of which are 4:1:1. And both are compressed. (FCE also works with DV-PAL which is 4:2:0 but Belize is not a PAL country.)
You could do 4:2:2 in Apple ProRes, but you will need FCPro to work with that.
If you are using FCExpress, then I'd suggest having your supplier provide you with QuickTime files using Apple Intermediate Codec.

Why do I get a black screen when i click on a PDF in a web page?

why do I get a black screen when i click on a PDF in a web page? Firefox works as is should.

Hi,
From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, then relaunch Safari. Try a PDF file.
If it's not Extensions, open a Finder window. Select MacintoshHD in the Sidebar on the left. Now open the Library folder then the Internet Plug-Ins folder. If you see any files such as this:
AdobePDF Browser or Viewer Plug-in
Move it to the Trash, relaunch Safari.

Why am I getting an error message when trying to use a template?

Why am I getting an error message when trying to use a Pages template?

You are getting an error message because there is an error.
Knowing wht version of Pages you are using, what template you are attempting to open, and what error message Pages is sending you might help determine why you are getting that specific rror message. Without those, the first sentence above i pretty much all that can be said with any assurance.

Open Pictures folder and move the files named lrcat-journal and lrcat.lock to Desktop.
Make sure that , they are not inside Pictures folder any more and try to open backup from Lighrtroom and check..
Any LRcat file with .lock extension , move it to Desktop.

Why do I get a black version when I convert my document to PDF?

I have been using Microsoft Publisher 2007 with XP to produce a newsletter for over 11/2 years. Today when I converted the file to PDF it is black with all kinds of wierd colors. It looks nothing like the document I produced. This has never happened before. The PDF version last month looked exactly like the white background document I produced with all the fonts in the right colors, including the pictures. This one looks like a 4 year old got ahold of it and colored it any way she wanted. Nothing looks the same as my document. What happened?

I found out that if I waited about 15 minutes the PDF file became normal. Thank heavens! I've now sent out my newsletter for my Quilt Club to our 90 e-mail subscribers and all of them I have heard from have gotten it the way I had written it. It must just have been a quirk that happened, but I sure am glad it fixed itself. I only have 5 more newsletters to write and then I am done. Thank Heaven. Thank you for trying to help. I was about to become even more crazed than I get when I have to publish the newsletter. I do it once a month and I never would have volunteered for the 2 year job if I had know how much work it is. My husband walks gently when he knows I am trying to put the newsletter together. I'm not usually crabby, but this has made me a nut case once a month. It's a good thing we've been married for 37 years, so he knows that it is only the "newsletter editor nutty lady" that is getting mad at everything and everyone, including him! Thanks for trying to help. You were the only one that answered. JO

Do you get an "HDCP error"?
Since the last ATV software update, I have had problems playing You Tube content from the iPad to the ATV using airplay, yet the same content from the You Tube channel on the ATV plays fine. I get the dreaded "HDCP error" which is nonsense, as YouTube content does not have this protection. Netflix also gives the same error. (I have posted seperately about this problem.)
I have had a couple of years of fault-free playing with my setup, the only thing that has changed is the Apple ATV software. Ergo, they need to fix whatever bug they introduced. None of the recommended "fixes" have worked.
