iPad 2 Video App (Error: 'you do not have permission to access the requested content'

[ChrisZA54]

For the second time in a few weeks, I am receiving the above error message when trying to view a video using the Apple Videos app. The first time, the problem seemed to resolve itself after a few days (I have no idea what changed). This time, I was viewing a video and stopped it half way through. Now when I try to view it again, I get this error message. I have tried closing the app and restarting the device manually. Neither of these work.

Please help.

Sorry Chris but access to the video is restricted.
It's nothing to do with your iPad, if you try the link in a desktop browser you'll get the same result.

So this means that the episodes of the tv show that I bought from iTunes are just restricted and that's my money wasted?

Hello,
This is an old thread which has had the original query answered. The thread contributors have now moved on.

I am therefore closing the thread.
