Re: [apple-iphone] Frustration with Video

I didn't realize they started selling videos on iTunes again. Anyway, check out this support article:

Rich, give us some more information.

When you say you bought an episode, I take it you bought a digital copy. Who from?

Many digital copies currently are for streaming not download. Usually you have to download the whole thing, not parts of it. I have found that downloading audiobooks over WiFi to be a pain and they are a lot smaller than a video. Also your iPhone would use a different format than one meant to be played on a computer.

I bought an episode of "The Twilight Zone" that I was hoping I could play on my phone sometimes. At first, it would not download. It would say that I needed to connect to my iTunes or be on a wi-fi.

I partially downloaded it on a wi-fi network this afternoon and tried to do the rest of it using my iTunes account. Now the only way it will let me play the episode is to be connected to my iTunes or a wi-fi. I tried to see if the thing was loaded into my phone without the connection and was told that the movie could not be played or located.

Can anyone give me an idea of what I am doing wrong? Everything else that I have bought and downloaded to my iPhone works without having it connected to anything. I thought the idea of being able to download movies and TV shows is so that you can watch them anywhere too. Something's not right here & I wanna know how to fix it.

Thanks in advance.
