I cannot find english subtitles for a movie i have just purchased,
Many other languages (subtitles) but not english. This cannot be right?
I have tried to View on my Macbook as well as Apple TV, still no english subtitles...
Am i missing something
What is the country or region of your account?
What is the title of the movie? So that we may check what is supposed to be available.
It is up to the distributing studio to supply subtitles (or not). Especially in countries or regions where English isn’t a major language, English subtitles may not be included.
I have the same problem. I am in South Africa and English is the most widely spoken language. But that is beside the point. I am watching Men In Black. A lot of the movie is them speaking in alien languages. I need the subtitles.
If the releasing studio (Columbia Pictures for MiB 1997) didn’t include English subtitles in the movie stream, then it is not available unfortunately.
If English subtitles (regular, for Hearing Impaired, or Forced for foreign language only) are available, then you can activate that as described here: Change subtitles or languages for videos in the Apple TV app or iTunes Store - Apple Support
Apple+ Movie - No English Subtitles (plenty of other languages) - Hearing Disabled
