Why does it keep downloading the same movie and doesn't allow me to actually watch it?

It took over 48 hours to download a single movie, then i watched 15 mins of it and the sound disappeared... i then switched off the tv (not apple tv), turned it on again and now it's downloading the movie again! Why is this happening?

Hello Nataliesapplequestions,
It does sound like you have some download issues going on there.
I'm not sure which Apple TV you have, but please check out the following article.
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Troubleshooting playback performance - Apple Support
It deals with, "playback issues in content that you rent or purchase on Apple TV".
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

Why does Thunderbird keep retrieving the same emails 2 to 3 times from my hotmail that I already retrieved?

It's not always exactly like this but here is example of the problem I'm having;
In the morning I open Thunderbird and it automatically retrieves the new emails from my web emails Hotmail and Gmail (that's good).
In the afternoon, when I open Thunderbird again, it will retrieve the same emails from Hotmail that I already got in the morning (that's not good).
Sometimes when I open Thunderbird a third time, it will again get those same emails from Hotmail (That's frustrating).
Note:
1) This only happens only with the hotmail account, not the gmail account.
2) The second and/or third time I open Thunderbird is not necessarily the same day, it could be the next day or next time. I just used the morning/afternnon example for ease of explanation.

I have the same issue. I have not followed it up, Hotmail is such a rubbish service these days and I am sick of dealing with support there. They simply do not understand mail or it's protocols. They only comprehend "Microsoft" and their scripts. I just moved on the GMX.
But I am guessing something there is broken. Perhaps it is not moving the mails to the POP folder in a timely manner. But I am seeing exactly the same thing. And it is not always either. Windows 8 uses IMAP so they really do not care if POP works or not. They would probably prefer not.

Why does it keep ejecting the DVD-R and won't burn?

I finished the DVD project and click burn. Why when I insert the DVD-R disk does it keep ejecting and asking for a blank DVD-R disk to be inserted? I know they are blank. Am I missing something?

Itunes keeps downloading the same songs over and over again on a shared library

I have a share library on a NAS box, and until now, little problem. But now, iTunes keeps downloading the same songs etc, when I go to another PC, even though the library is shared between the other PC, is the same.
Plus, iTunes repeatably asks for my Password to log in, even though it is correct.
Share Library on NAS box, mapped drive paths to drive letters.
Keeps re-downloading songs and podcasts I all ready have on the NAS box, if I open iTunes on different computer.
This is new behaviour. Has not happend like this till today.
Keeps asking for my iTunes ID and Password, over and over again, evertime I run iTunes, or my iPod.
Thanks in advance.

Adriana,
If your .mac account is set to be type .mac (don't laugh, it can be set to be POP, or IMAP), it functions essentially like an IMAP. As a .mac, the Inbox is actually on the server, and when you display the Inbox, you are displaying everything on the server. Any downloading you observe is purely for purposes of display, according to what selections you have made in Mail Preferences. What you report seems perfectly normal, for a .mac account, and for an IMAP account.
Often an exchange account is also an IMAP account, and thus the behavior would seem normal for that type of account.
Again the Inbox is on the Server, and not on your Mac. Do not confuse this with selecting to Keep copies for Offline viewing -- those copies are refreshed from the server whenever you sign on.
Neither a .mac nor IMAP account folder will contain a MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded file . However, your POP folder should have such a file or two, to control duplicate downloads of messages remaining on the server -- POP was originally designed to remove upon download, but now that many people use more than one computer, it is logical to sometimes leave messages on the server to be download onto other computers.
In the Finder, open Home/Library/Mail and look for a folder named to begin with POP and including the server and/or email address in the name. If there is not a POP folder, then the account has NOT been set up to be something other than POP. If there is a POP folder, it should contain the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded.
More info, please.

HT204406 I have subscribed to match on iTunes and organized my music on my Mac Book. Why does it not appear the same way on my iPad

I would like my music to appear organized in the same way on my iPad as I have done it on my Mac Book. (and on my iPhone as well) Since it is in the cloud, why does it not appear the same way in all devices?

The purpose of iTunes match is to make your music library available to all of your devices anywhere. It will sync Playlists, but no other type of organization you may have made.
If you're having trouble, be sure you are logged into the same Apple ID on all devices but be sure to read this article and pay special attention to associating your devices with an Apple ID. There are important restrictions you should know about.

Why does Apple keep breaking the podcast app?

Why does Apple keep breaking the podcast app?

Here are my issues, maybe you can help... And yes "breaking" and "nightmare" are accurate descriptions of this update...
1. Syncing is now impossible without WiFi or a Cellular connection. I've tried your guide in the other thread, but it didn't help.
When I sync podcasts with iTunes, they DO NOT SHOW UP in the app unless I connect my iPhone 5S to WiFi or Cellular. As soon as I connect it to something, new episodes that I manually synced finally show up and can be played.
2. Arranging the podcasts in any order is now pointless. Any sort of wireless connection will reset my order to a randomized one. It's not even "podcasts with the newest episodes on top", it's just random.
3. Apple doesn't seem to allow any other podcast app to use the manual sync in iTunes. Am I wrong about that? I looked at countless paid apps and they all have their own cloud or system to only deliver episodes wirelessly...
4. And that constant prompt about Cellular data access could drive anyone insane!
I have never been this frustrated with an Apple product in my life...

Mail Keeps Downloading the Same Emails

As of this morning, Mail (v4.5) keeps downloading the same emails over and over. I've got my delete setting to delete after one week (not immediately after download), but this has never been an issue before. In fact, I have multiple email accounts that access the same mail server, but only this one account is having this issue. I've gone in to my mailbox via Mail2Web and deleted all the messages in case it was some kind of corrupt email causing the issue. But as new emails come in, the problem reappears--the new emails are downloaded over and over. This is with a POP account.
I would think it'd be a server issue, not a Mail issue, but none of my other accounts that access the same mail server are affected. Any suggestions?

Ok, found a solution, as outlined by Satchmo here:

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

If you are in Hong Kong, go to Digital Trade, 1/F, Sincere Plaza, Argyle Street, and it will cost you 120-150HKD, but before you go check that your power button and home button are working correctly, if not press as hard as you can, hope this will help.

Why is itunes only downloading the first, fifth and ninth songs from any CD?

Why is itunes only downloading the first, fifth and ninth songs from any CD?

Did you perhaps intentionally select just those three tracks to import from one CD a while back, and is iTunes now remembering that selection? Do you see checkboxes against the list of tracks on the CD? If not Go to Edit > Preferences > General, and check the box for Show list checkboxes. CTRL-Click an empty checkbox to check all of them in one go.
If that isn't the issue are you getting any error messages during the import? Will other software (WMP/MediaMonkey/CDEX etc.) rip the CD instead?
