I'm confused about TV shows on my ipad. I downloaded 7 episodes from a series. I have watched all of them except the last - the first 4 on my ipad, then the next 2 on my laptop. I cannot download the last episode on my ipad, although I have, or I think I have, deleted all the other episodes. However, I see three downloads on my ipad that I cannot access. Episode 7 says "download error. tap to retry." When I tap that, it says Episode 7 could not be downloaded at this time. When I go to the Video app on my ipad, there is nothing there. I thought I could totally delete all episodes, then just re-download Episode 7, in case space was an issue. I keep going in circles, and it's driving me crazy. Please give me the piece of the puzzle that I'm missing!!!:Shouting:

When you say:
I see three downloads on my ipad that I cannot access
Where do you see these and what do you mean you can't access them?

Can you delete the Episode 7 download?

Try to delete any/all 7 episodes. Open the multitasking bar and close all apps. Hard restart your iPad (hold sleep/wake & home until the screen goes blank and the apple logo appears).

Now go back to the iTunes app and try the episode 7 download again

I was able to delete the remaining three episodes on my iPad by swiping across them, then touching "delete". Then I downloaded the one episode that I had not seen, and was able to watch it with no problem. So I'm assuming indequate space was the issue.
