Why is the itunes store download slow

Apple doesn't seem to believe me. Can anyone else explain this or tell me why I am having to wait 222 hours for a movie to download while my DSL is testing 5 mbps WHILE THE STORE IS DOWNLOADING?
It's been 2 days now.

AND of course, I get THIS when I try to connect to Support.

  • Why is the iTunes Store so slow for me?

    I have fast cable internet but when I surf the iTunes store it's like I'm on dial-up or something. Especially with previewing songs and loading pages etc. It's been this way for quite some time, I'm using iTunes version 10. Thanks.

    you know very well it has nothing to do with itunes or the modem/router.  apple servers are very very slow and its an absolute disgrace.
    you can download from third party servers at twice the speeds (at your own risk)
    Apple is the second largest company in the world and they treat customners in this way

  • Why is downloading movies from the iTunes store so slow?

    why is downloading movies from the itunes store so slow?

    Hi there
    Many users seem to be experiencing this issue around the world (see thread  https://discussions.apple.com/message/16981332#16981332) - my iTunes dowload last night showed 7 hours ETA for a 45 minute tv show.  this morning I rebooted it and tried again, it is now taking 2 hours.  An improvement in theory but still terrible.  I don't know if it is internet connection but everything else I do on the internet seems to be running at normal pace.....
    Not much help sorry but at least you can see you are not alone
    Cheers

  • Why is the ITunes Store in South Africa so limited

    why is the ITunes Store in South Africa so limited

    Apple can only sell content where the rights-holders grant them licenses to sell it (and in some cases a country's laws also limit things). If there is a particular item that is not currently available that you would like to be able to download then you try requesting that it be added, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    For music you could check to see if its available on other music purchase downloads sites that you have access to (or if it's available as a CD then you could buy that and copy it via your computer's iTunes).
    For ebooks there are other ebook apps/stores where it might be available e.g. Amazon/Kindle, Nook, Kobo etc

    Yes.

  • Why does the itunes store show the apps I have downloaded Free or the price instead of "downloaded"?

    I have encountered this problem since Christmas. When I open the itunes and want to search the apps I have downloaded, and it keeps showing these apps free or with a price instead of downloaded. However, I have not encountered this problem in my iphone. This problem makes me confused that whether I have downloaded the app if I do not check the "Purchased".
    Like the following one, even though I have downloaded the app, it shows the price to me instead of "downloaded".
    p.s I have logined in to my acct.

    Are you really running Mac OS 10.4.8?

    I hadn't used visited the iTunes store looking for books for many months.  When I went this afternoon I found it stupid, offensive and frustrating how hard it is to find books instead of audiobooks.  What am I doing wrong?  The main menu in the store doesn't even list books anymore.  Just audiobooks.  The only way I could get a link to a book download was by searching for the author.  That then gave me a choice of book or audiobooks.
    I see plenty of books (in the U.S. store).

  • Why does the iTunes Store (iTunes 11.2) keep asking for my Apple ID password on launch?

    iTunes 11.2, Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.3
    The iTunes Store keeps asking for Apple ID password on launch, and with every download, even when I am already logged in to the iTunes Store with my Apple ID. I am using iCloud, my iCloud account is set up on my iMac and I am using iCloud Keychain. My Apple ID password is stored in my Keychain. So why can't the iTunes Store remember me?

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select
    Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Why is the itunes store saying my un or pw is incorrect when its not?

    I had to restore my ipad mim of my daughters because she disabled it after forgetting her pw and entering it too many times. The apple experts then told me to go to itunes store on computer and sign in with my un and pw for her ipad mini and i could downlad my purchased apps back onto her ipad mini. But now I dont know what to click on or if Im signed in and wehat im doing, Is there live expert advice from apple? i got it yesterday and talked to someone but now i cant find it anywhere???Please someone helpp me now.

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    I assume by 'my un and pw' you mean your iTunes id and password. If you do then you can redownload items directly on the iPad. If you aren't already signed into your account on it then you can sign in via Settings > iTunes & App Store and what can be redownloaded for that account will show in the Purchased tabs in the App Store and iTunes store apps on it - music, films and/or TV programmes can't be redownloaded in all countries (audiobooks and ringtones are one-off downloads), and content providers may also have removed their items from the store, so not all purchases may show.
    To do it on a computer's iTunes, you can sign into an account via the Store > Sign In drop-down menu option (if an account is currently logged in then you will have a Store > Sign Out menu option instead)
    What can be redownloaded for the account will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page :
    You can then sync themto the iPad
    Redownloading an account's past purchases may tie that computer or device to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

  • Why is the app store so SLOW?

    Whenever I bring up the App Store application, it takes ages to load.  I just closed App Store and started it again, and it took a full TWO MINUTES for "featured" items to come up. Whenever I try to download something, it takes way longer than any other major download site I use.
    I live in Japan, use the Japan App Store, and am on a 30mbs connection.  So why does the App Store take so long to load and download?

    Has it always been like that?

  • Why is the app store downloading a complete OS x Lion to my 10.7.3 late 2011 MBA?

    My Macbook Air 10.7.3 seems to be operating well.  Why is the App store completely updating my os? (4.04GB download)

    If you have a copy of an older installer left on your system, it's updating the installer to 10.7.3.

  • What bitrate are the itunes store downloads?

    Sorry for the newb question, but I have never used the Itunes Store before and could use some help.
    All my searches turn up old links indicating 128k AAC w/drm has been replaced by 256k AAC/ wo DRM, but they were from a year ago and point to Itunes Plus. The Itunes Plus faq in Support was no help since I see no + signs for any selections when searching music from the Itunes Store. So my guess is Plus is either embedded or I have a problem.
    Also, if I my ask, are the bitrates the same when downloading direct from my Iphone?
    Using Itunes 9.2.0.61 , Iphone 3GS 32gb w/ ios4

    Approximately a year ago (mid-2009) is when the iTunes Store started selling music only as iTunes Plus, which as Niel notes, is at 256 kb/s.

  • Why wont the iTunes store load in my iTunes?

    Hi, my name is Garrett and i am a 13 year old boy why loves music and cant get his itunes to work. i have tried completely wiping my computer clean then reloading windows 7 then reloading all my files and last installing a freash new version of itunes, and jst today i updated to 10.6 or something like that, but it still had the same problem. i have a 3.5 year old dell inspiron laptop with an intel pentium prossesor and to my knowlage this has nothing to do with it. so iTunes opens just fine but when i attempt to open the itunes store it just has that striped loading line at the tope of the page that jst keeps going and going and going and never stops. i left my computer on for an intire day to prove to my self that i either have the slowest computer on earth or iTunes store doesn't work. so i tried opening it through my Quicktime player and it had the same problem exept when i closed the window and error came up and the number was 11222. all i need is for iTunes to work otherwise i am stuck to only lisening to music from other websites and not on the go. i am fed up with iTunes not working and them taking down that "email the support guy" thing and the fact that they left some of us in the dust not knowing what to do. if someone could please help that would be great:) if not...well then ill have to wait till i get a job and can earn enough money to buy a new computer.
    Thanks,
    Sincerely, Garrett

    so iTunes opens just fine but when i attempt to open the itunes store it just has that striped loading line at the tope of the page that jst keeps going and going and going and never stops.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • Why does the itunes store ask for passwords to different accounts?

    Sometimes when I sign on to buy something at the iTunes store it will ask me for a password to an old.mac account. Then in ther cases it will ask me for a more current account.
    And how do I combine all of the ourchaes from both these accounts into one?

    You can't currently combine accounts, nor transfer content from one account to another account - content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it, so only that account will be able to authorise its content, re-download it, and/or download updates to its apps.

  • Why is the itunes store repeatedly unavailable? I've "tried again later" for a few days now...
