If you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
Turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy
Check your internet speeds just in case > Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test
Try not using other applications that require downloading files while downloading media from iTunes.

Because the file is over 5 GBs. If your internet service is slow then it can take a long time - several hours.

Why is it taking 20 hours to download a movie from itunes?
i just purchased a movie from itunes and it says that it will take around 20 hours to download, is that normal?
Hi lacostejacket,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are downloading a movie from iTunes and it gave you an estimated time of 20 hours to complete. Download times can vary depending on the size of the file and the speed of Internet connection. Please use the following article as a reference. It has a table that shows expected download times for certain speeds.
iTunes Store: Download times will vary

Why does it take so long to download a movie from itunes onto our apple tv?
Can you pleaes tell me why it is not documented that you have to wait several hours to download a film from itunes store onto our apple tv, stupidly we thought this would be instant! We have changed our download resolution but still no help!!
Because you apprently have a very serius network issue. Purchased TV Shows and Movies can generally be viewed with in about 30 sec. of buying them. I believe rented shows have to be fully downloaed before they can be viewed which depending on your internet connetion could take several hours or longer.

How long is "so long"?
Some product downloads are up to 1.6GB; that can take some time - very much depending on your Internet connection. Check http://www.download-time.com/
For a test, I just downloaded Illustrator CC 2014 (1.6 GB), and the download completed within 13 minutes (and I am 10,000 km away from the Adobe download servers).
Try downloading from http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-2014-direct-download-links.html - make sure you follow the Very Important Instructions on that page. -
Why is it taking so long to download InDesign CC?
Why is it taking so long to download InDesign CC?
If I am not able to download the new applications, due to an extremely slow connection, does Adobe have other means to help me obtain the software?
Are there any 'other' solutions?Yes, I was able to finally download two out of three of my applications. I waited three hours to get two pieces of software, and I still need to download one more application.
While talking to the customer service department in India, I was told that I could not get help in bypassing my slow Internet connection. Even though I have been a loyal and law abiding customer for thirteen years, Adobe's customer service department treated me like a piece of crap. All I wanted to do is get my applications on cd, so I can bypass the buggy and long downloading periods. I tried desperately to explain: (1) I have been a loyal customer for thirteen years, (2) I bought and committed to a yearly subscription, (3) I have followed Adobe's legal rules since day one, (4) I have no problems with the software's DRM, and (5) I love and support Adobe products.
Regardless about how much I sympathized with Adobe's position, I could not get your customer service department to 'care about me'. I walked away feeling depressed and defeated.
As a result of going through a horrible customer service experience, while also struggling with the change to cloud, I started to think about a change in career. Why do I want to be a graphic and web designer? I spent a crap load of money on an education, so that I can become a slave to the industry's dominate software maker. If it was not for the fact that Adobe's software is the industry's standard, the recent events with your customer service department would have made me walk away.
It sucks that your company has a 90% strangle hold on the industry I love. -

Why is it taking so long to download iCloud onto new phone
Why is it taking so long to download my iCloud onto new phone
What does download iCloud mean? You don't download iCloud. You download the content that is in your iCloud backup to your phone. If you have a great deal of content in the backup, it can take a good bit of time.
Define "so long". That doesn't mean anything to anybody here. It's a relative term and we have no idea how much time "so long" is to you. -

Why is it taking so long to download the iOS 7.0.2 ?
If you're doing the full update it's almost a gig of data, take a bit to download that. It usually comes down to your internet connection.

HT4095 why is it taking so long to download tv series
why is it taking so long to download tv series
You can only download as fast as your Internet connection allows you to download. An entire TV series would probably be a pretty large download as well, so it could take a few hours, depending upon your download speed.

My atv is taking too long to download a rental
My Atv 2 is taking too long to download a rental movie
This would be caused by your network.
First I would check www.speedtest.net
8mbps required for instant 1080P
6mbps required for instant 720P
You can change to SD in the settings if on a slower connection. -
I have purchased two movies on the store that at the time were unable to download, due to a full start up disc. I have now freed up the space and the remainder of the movies won't download. It gives me the error code 8003. I have a good network connection and the space for the movies, but cant seem to get it to work. Anysuggestions? It doesnt even let me delete the downloads and start again.
1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

My apple tv keeps stopping during the movie, I have a good internet connection but cant understand why?
The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this atwww.speedtest.net.
1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.
