HT1657 I have rented a movie on my iPad but it won't download because I don't have enough memory.  Searching thru the FAQ it looks like I am unable to transfer this to my Apple TV.  Is this correct & if so then maybe there should be a warning when purchas

I have rented a movie on the iPad but I don't have enough memory for it to download  - so I wanted to make it available on my Apple TV - looking at the FAQ it doesn't look like I am allowed to do this! Why not - I've purchased/rented this movie I should be able to watch on any device??!   Can I get a refund for something I can't watch??

As it says on the page that you posted from :
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
Why it's like that I don't think that Apple have said (these are user-to-user forums). If you haven't downloaded it on your iPad then have you checked to see if you can download it on your computer's iTunes (Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option) or Apple TV ?
If it doesn't show on either of them then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will let you download it on a different computer/device or refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

  • I can browse the store and even purchase music but it won't download because I don't have the privilege to make changes. What?

    I had no problem being connected to the store and browsing.  I eventually bought a CD but it won't download it.  It won't download podcasts either.  It tells me that I don't have the privilege to do so and to connect my network settings.  This is the first time I'm using my MacBook Pro with iTunes.  What is wrong?

  • I have rented a movie on my ipad. It did not download due to not being on wifi at the time.  I know I completed the rental because my gift card balance went down $3.99 plus tax.  How do I find where to download the movie?

    But now I can't find the actual movie...I go to iTunes to purchases and view movies , to downloads and searched the title of the movie...I can see an icon of it and it is in a separate place from other purchases but it says downloaded in faded lettering. Where is it?
    If you can't find the movie you downloaded on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, check inside your Videos App

  • I rented a movie on my iPad but cannot move it to my computer to watch on tv via Apple tv. How do I transfer the rented movie to my computer?

    I rented a movie on my iPad but cannot move it to my computer to watch on tv via Apple tv. How do I transfer the rented movie to my computer?

    I just rented a movie from my iPad2 and tried to play it through my ATV2 with AirPlay and same problem.... This is absurd guys. Apple I know there are copyright hoops to jump through but come on!! The whole pitch behind AirPlay and AppleTV was to make it easy to watch my purchases on my TV no matter what device they were on. Now I've got to hold my iPad in front of my face to watch a movie for nearly 3 hours!! And when I go to the support site I have no option other than to send an email to billing, screw this. I've not bought a DVD since I purchased my ATV2 over a year ago but if you guys are gonna pull this crap then what incentive do I have to continue the use of something that may or may not work the way it was advertised.
    By the way, this is the first time I've had this problem because I normally rent straight off the ATV or my computer, which by the way I was considering replacing my PC with an iPad but looks like you guys aren't ready for me to make that kind of a switch.
    Don't tell us that a product will do XY and Z then put limits on Y sending to Z.
    FIX THIS!!!

  • I have rented a movie on my iPad.  Only audio streams on apple TV

    I have rented a movie on my iPad.  When I try to view it on apple tv only the audio will play when I use the apple TV button. How can I get the video portion to stream?

    Try restarting the iPad (the red "swipe to power off", then power back on). That may get the movie to appear in the Videos app. If not, go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

    Only rentals made on a computer can be transferred to other devices. You will need to watch your rental on the Apple TV.

  • HT1390 I have rented a movie on iTunes.  It is supposed to download immediately.  How do I see the progress?  I press play, but it is not there.  How long should it take?

  • I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go?

    I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. I freed up a ton of storage space to make sure I had the room for it. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go? I re-booted my iPad, signed off/on iTunes etc. I can't find a folder with downloadable items anywhere. ITunes just tells me, "you've already rented this video. Do you want to rent it again?" What happened to my movie?

    Did you check the Videos app?

    As i've posted in this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=746408&tstart=30
    I've tried everything others have suggested without any luck.
    Now I'm stuck with a 300 bucks mp3 jalopy.
    My big question here is :
    why aren't we hearing from apple? why aren't they saying something like "yeah we messed things up but be patient. we are trying our best to fix it..." ?
    I was thinking to buy the macbook pro but now I'm afraid of the day things will get messy with that too.

    Unless you are in the US then films can't currently be re-downloaded from the store (and not all films can be in the US). If you are in the US then you could see if it's in the Purchased link on the left-hand side of the iTunes store home page for re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

  • I purchased my MacBook Pro in August 2013. Am I suppose to have Pages, Numbers, and Keynote already installed on my MacBook Pro? Because I don't have them.

    You may have to purchase them as Apple did not offer them with new Macs until after October 2013. Check the App Store. Whether free or fee, many are discovering that Pages v5 and later is the antithesis of word processing functionality. You would be better served with Office for Mac 2011 update 14.4.5, or the free LibreOffice.

  • HT4910 i forgot the password on my iPad; I have it backed up on my Mac, so I saw that I just should back up from iTunes. I tried to do that, but it says to first turn off "Find my iPad", which obviously I cannot do because I don't have my password!!  Help

  • I rented a movie with my ipad but don't have enough space to download, what do i do?

    I rented an iTunes movie using my iPad but I didn't have enough space to download it.  I thought I'd be able to jump over to my MacBook and do it instead but the movie doesn't show up in the "purchased" area.  What can I do?

    Delete something from the ipad so that you have room.

  • I have rented a movie on my macbook air and want to download it on iPad. I cannot download it on Air because I do not have enough desk space. I could not do this without renting again. Please help.
