Anyone else having problems with Cars 2 not wanting to authorize on original Apple TV? I've tried re-syncing, restarting, re-entering my iTunes ID, etc. and it keeps saying "You are not authorized to view this content". I also just bought Captain America and it works fine.
Got a tip for us?

Cars 2 Not Authorizing on ATV1G

Last night I tried playing the most recent episode of Breaking Bad on my 1st generation Apple TV and the same message came up. A quick search on Apple's forums revealed that others are having the same issue.
Let's hope there is an update on the way and Apple are not doing this deliberately in order to encourage more sales of the 2nd generation Apple TV.

Thanks for replying. I'm pretty sure it has something to do on Apple's end regarding authorizations - and I'm getting annoyed by the recent server problems. My iCloud email is not being pushed to my iPhone consistently. I had 28 emails come through today and didn't get any of them on my iPhone until I manually checked. I have no doubt Apple is having problems getting everything working (they've yet to even get iTunes Match going, which I'm sure is another server problem).
Authorization Problem
Went on to the forum because had same problem after waiting forever to watch Bridesmaids. When it was finally ready, I got a message that I'm not authorized. I'm upgrading the software and will try again. Anyone else get an explanation for this and how to fix it?
