Play a movie bought on iTunes that is located on an external drive

I just bought a Seagate wireless more HDD. They advertise being able to play music and movies mp4 also. I can play music, even if it's not through iTunes. But the movies that I bought through iTunes will not play. Is there a set up to make them play? Or is it something to do with DRM? It does seem to be a way of saying the video app where the movies. Videos of the sample that came on the hard disk activity. Just not movies that are purchased.

It is an Air iPad I have.

You cannot play/stream iTunes downloaded, purchased movies more outside readers another external wireless a drive connected to a computer and using sharing home to transmit the contents of iTunes movie to your iDevice in iTunes on a computer only.

Seagate used to use a programming flaw in iOS 7 / 8 that allowed content iTunes movie to play through the iOS Safari web browser, but Apple blocked / coded on this ability to iOS 9.

So no way iTunes purchased content film play streaming from the wireless of Seagate drive.

There is software out there to get around that, but we are not allowed to discuss the issue due to terms of use of these support forums.

Do a search on the web for possible solutions to your dilemma

Good luck!

  • I can tell iMovie 10.1.2 that my photo library is located on an external drive?

    Hello, since the 10.1.2 update my library of Photos became invisible to iMovie.

    Other threads indicate clear that it shouldn't be.

    I think that the reason is that it is on an external drive, but iMovie does not detect.

    Is that what I can do about it? My internal drive does not have a sufficient space.

    Your photo library is designated as the library systems? In preferences/general pictures you can see the location of your photo library opened and select it in the library system.

  • How to play episodes I bought on iTunes?

    Hi all

    I recently bought an entire season of a series, and whenever I try to play the first episode it is not working properly. I don't know how to actually play the entire episode and whenever I click on it, he plays just 30 second clip, a preview. I don't really know a lot about iTunes, so help is appreciated. Thank you.

    If you have downloaded the episodes in the section TV from your iTunes library, then you should be able to play the entire episode there; If you have not yet downloaded them and then try to go to the buy section: click on your name / icon to the top right if iTunes, then click on purchased on the shortcut menu, or click on the purchase link under quick links on the right side of the home page of the iTunes store

    Yes, normally you can use an external hard drive in safe mode.

    Boot to safe mode and open Windows Explorer (double-click on my computer).

    You should be able to see the external hard drive, should be the letter E: or F: depending on how much other disks you have.

    You need to find the folder where your Itunes Music is maintained.

    "In Windows XP and Windows 2000, click the sign more next to the folders and drives to navigate. The default location is

    \Documents and utilisateur\Mes Documents\My Music\iTunes Settings\nom.

    http://support.Apple.com/kb/HT1364

    From there its all just find the folder, copy and then navigate to your external hard drive and paste.

    I tried to locate the itunes library file to try to move it, but couldn't move anything to my external dr (h) he brought under options in safe mode

    You should not try to boot from the external hard drive if that's what you do.

    Hope this helps

  • Movement music from itunes to a new external drive

    Hello!

    So there are a lot of questions in the face of this general problem, but I found no one who comes close to my situation.

    There are at present all music from my iTunes (~1.4 TB) library is shared between two external drives. I just bought a new laptop (3 TB) and would like to move - preferably not copy, I know that straight-up moving items between volumes is possible in the terminal, I don't know the right commands - all this music to the new drive. My iTunes Library.itl and the rest of the folder iTunes at the same time, are on my computer, I don't know if we keep them there or move them as well.

    I use any file "iTunes Media. Most of my library is rips of CD and downloads without loss, and I prefer to keep the organized myself (as including scans of records covers music and writing notes and other information about the record such as comments). "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" and "Copy the files into the iTunes Media folder when adding to library" is, therefore, both uncontrolled. And I think that naming a new file on the new drive as "iTunes Media" and then checking "Consolidate files" in the file > library > organize library to copy all the music she would keep the folder structure I created or transfer through the images, log files, PDF files, etc..

    Can anyone advise on what would allow me to do this with a minimum of disruption to my iTunes library (IE not having to add all and recreate all my playlists, etc., which, in itself, would take another hours 20, or whatever on top of the amount of time it will take to move all files?)

    Thanks in advance!

    OS X 10.7.5 / iTunes 12.1.2.27

    If you want iTunes to do the work (as expected), let iTunes do its work...    That would mean designate a location on the new drive for the iTunes Media folder (in the Advanced iTunes preferences pane) by using the command to "consolidate files" (-> library menu bar-> organize the library-> consolidate the files).

    IF all your current iTunes media on the external drive files are on a SINGLE volume (not two), you can copy your folder structure complete (for your iTunes media files) to the new volume of external hard drive (using the Finder).  Then with iTunes works DO NOT, unplug the old external drive and rename the new external drive exactly the same name volume as the old volume of external drive.  Basically, do the new disc looks like the old drive to iTunes.  When you run iTunes, the "routes" to its multimedia files are the same as before, so iTunes sees no difference.

    But since your iTunes media is 'shared between two external drives', you can't do it cleanly.  If a part is much more important, you could do the above with the majority only.  Now, at this point, you can use it in this way, with the new external drive as your main expansion of storage in course, and existing 'other' always connected player.  In iTunes, it seems again the same as before.

    If you want that all your media files to iTunes on the new external drive...  Copy this second folder (with your smallest part of iTunes media) structure to the new external drive (using the Finder).  With iTunes doesn't work DO NOT, unplug the 'other' external drive.  When you run iTunes, it loses track of media files in this part (but keep those songs with exclamation point in the library).  This next part may or may not work.  When iTunes spot is no longer a song file, when you try to play it, iTunes will ask if you want to locate.  I heard that if you do this for a song (by pointing to the new location for this piece), iTunes can extrapolate the locations for the other files 'disappeared' of the song.  If it does not work with the first song (or partially works), try to do it for a little more.  Worst case, you will need to add the songs in the smaller part manually.

  • Move the folder of Photos on an external drive

    Hello my MacBook Air is near capacity. I'm going through iTunes and Photos on an external drive to free up disk space on the internal drive. I searched the threads and found the right solution for iTunes. I moved the entire iTunes folder to the external drive. Then, in the Advanced tab of iTunes preferences, I made the file to the new location on the external hard drive. That worked very well.

    Now, I'm ready to try the same process with my library of Photos (which also includes years of photos iPhoto migrated). Can I move the folder full of images (as I did with iTunes) or simply pictures library on external drive? My suspicion is the entire pictures folder, because it also contains the migrated iPhoto Pictures folders, Lightroom, Adobe and Photo Booth also. After searching for the discussions, it is not clear to me how to do it with pictures.

    Thank you

    Jon

    You can move either; Once completed, launch Photos with the key Option key, click library and choose the one on the external hard drive. ITunes library should be moved in the same way rather than change the setting in the preferences.

  • ITunes media folder location has changed, but it keeps resetting to the default location

    Hello

    I changed my iTunes media folder location. My internal drive has two drives (was originally a Fusion player, after a system crash, I had to clean it and install Mac OS from scratch and is no longer read as a reader of fusion, but I agree with it), so one of the discs that I use for the OS itself and the other to store the data. I've changed most of my files application for the storage disk storage. When I change the location of folder of media to iTunes, after reboot, it restores the original file to ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media.

    Why does that happen?

    If this info can help, I do not have the bluetooth icon in the menu bar, so I removed it by opening bluetooth preferences and unchecked 'see the bluetooth in the menu bar. He disappears. When I restart, it seems once again, it is not happened to Yosemite.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Copy of iPhoto/iTunes to external drive for upgrade

    I would like to transfer my iPhoto (5.0.4) and files iTunes (9.2.1) of my old iMac G5 (running 10.4.11) to my new iMac (El Capitan running).

    My iTunes library is now on an external drive (and iTunes is headed there), and I would like to copy my iPhoto on the same drive - to move together on the new iMac while maintaining the structures of files etc.

    Can someone tell me what is the best way to do this? I'm not clear what iPhoto files files, I need to move or copy on the external hard drive to retain the current structure of the organization/etc folder or the process then bring them into the right place on the new machine.

    Simply drag and drop them where you want libraries to reside. As iPhoto is plu included you will use the Photos app. You can learn how to move the library iPhotos to Photos for Mac on http://osxdaily.com/2015/04/17/move-iphoto-library-to-photos-mac/.

    Insofar as your iTunes library, yet once just drag and drop. 'Teach' iTunes where the library is simply double-click the library and iTunes will find it and then "know" where the library.

    The Organizer stores its information in a catalog, it does not store your photos, as you correctly suggest.

    1 - photo/media ("library") files are stored on your computer where you want on the inside or / and several external drives.

    2 - the catalog itself is a folder containing the database and other assets of catalog as the cache thumbnails. By default, it's on your startup disk. Help found its place > information of the Organizer menu system.

    3. you can copy or move all the folder where you want: links always corresponding to the actual location of the media files. However, if you move the files from your library outside of the Organizer, the links are not updated.

    Based on these 3 principles that you can choose what suits best.

    -If you want to free up space on your internal drive, you can move your 'library' totally or in part, to an external drive, provided that make you the gesture of the display of the records of your organiser (not from the finder). Who maintains the links updated.

    -If you do it from the Finder, you will get "disconnected" files in your catalog and you would "reconnect" from the Catalog Manager (not easy).

    -You can keep your catalog on the internal drive, its size may not be a problem.

    -You might want to move your catalog where you want on the external hard drive. No problem to move the external drive. 'S done it with your Finder. In theory, the operating speed is lowest place, but the advantage is that you can share your catalog and library between two computers with the same version of the Organizer.

    -The best and safest to move your catalogue and the library to the Organizer in a single operation is to use the process of "backup and restore":
