If you Deauthorize All in your iTunes Store account, purchased content may no longer play on Apple TV.

To correct this, deauthorize and then re-authorize the computer that you sync Apple TV with.

  1. In iTunes, choose Store > Deauthorize Computer.
  2. Then choose Store > Authorize Computer. Enter your account login and password if prompted.
  3. Select your Apple TV in the Source list and choose File > Sync Apple TV.
