One movie isn't playing for me

Jurassic World, to be exact. The extras work just fine, with sound, but when I try playing the movie it stays a black screen. No error message pops up. This happened before and after I updated iTunes to 12.3.2. My other movie plays just fine. Any reasons for this? I've tried switched from HD to SD, but still nothing.

Windows 8

Hello,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!


I understand that you have purchased Jurassic World from the iTunes Store, but it is not playing as expected. Because you have already isolated this issue to this one movie, I would suggest deleting this movie from your iTunes library and then re-download it fresh to test.


To re-download the movie, please follow the steps outlined in the following article.


On a Mac or PC

  1. Open iTunes.
  2. Click More User uploaded file in the upper-left corner.
  3. Click Movies User uploaded file or TV Shows User uploaded file from the pop-up menu.
  4. Click iTunes Store.
  5. If prompted, sign in with your Apple ID and password.
  6. Under Movie Quick Links or TV Show Quick Links on the right side of the iTunes Store, click Purchased.
    User uploaded file
  7. Select Not in My Library to view purchased content that isn't on your computer.
    User uploaded file
  8. Scroll to find the item that you want to download.
  9. Click the Download icon User uploaded file in the upper-right corner of the item that you want to download. Your item downloads to your library.
    If an item is already in your library, the Download icon won't appear.
