I purchased episodes of tv shows for my children. Now whenever we turn on the computer for itunes, automatic downloads available in HD for the same episodes start, which we do not want. I delete the downloads but the same thing happens when we turn on computer for itunes.
iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)
Try going to iTunes>Preferences>Store and turn off Automatic Downloads.
I already did that. I sign out & back in and the automatic downloads that are available start.
DId you pourchase a subscription/season pass or similar?
I have actually wanted to delete purchased content myself that I purchased and no longer want on my account. There is no way to fully delete purchases, but there is a way you can hide purchases. In Search on top right of apple.com/support type in article # HT4919
I went through hiding the purchases. I sign out of itunes and then back in. The HD versions of the episodes start downloading. I was told that itunes needs to delete my available downloads from the queve.
I did not purchase a subscription or season pass. I purchased tv episodes and did not have HD on my kindle and don't need those versions. If I went ahead and let them download it would take a week for all the available HD episodes to download because of our internet speed and this will cause a data overage on our bill.
