HT1657 I rented a movie last night, but it would not download.  I am trying to download it now on Apple TV, but it is just going round and round for half an hour now.

The movie I rented last night could not be downloaded so tonight I am trying again.  Apple TV says that I have rented the movie, but need to download it from iTunes Store.  I am doing that right now, but with no results.  Can you assist?

  • HT1657 I rented a movie last night on my apple tv, how do i find it on my computer to finish watching it?

    i rented a movie on my apple tv and i want to finish it on my computer but can't seem to find the rented section in itunes?

    Sorry, but you cannot watch it on your computer. Movies rented on an Apple TV cannot be transferred elsewhere. You'll have to finish watching it on your Apple TV.
    Regards.

  • HT1657 I rented 3 movies last night on my Mac Air, and transferred them to my  new iPad , but when I tried to play on plane tonight, it said " content not authorized "what am I doing wrong? It shows under rentals, but doesn't play

    My movies won't play, it just says "content not authorize"

    Hello rockland2u,
    Thanks for the question. Due to the special circumstances surrounding Movie Rentals, it may be best to contact our iTunes Store Support team about your purchase. The following article outlines how to report an issue:

  • HT1498 I rented a movie last night, and I received a notice saying to enter my security code. I did that, and I still do not see where my movie is. It charged my itunes account, but no movie. Any thoughts?

    I rented a movie last night on my Apple TV through the iTunes Store. I received a notice asking me to enter my security code from my debit card. I did that, however I never received any confirmation regarding the movie. It charged my iTunes account, and 15 hours later, the movie is still nowhere to be found on my Apple TV. Any suggestions, or thoughts?

  • Rented 2 movies last night but can't find them as downloaded to sync to my iPad.  When I click on the movie again, it says "previosly rented."  where can I find the link to download them?

    A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
    Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
    You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
    Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

    Personally I would raise the problem with iTunes Store Support via:

    Hello there, Cmm405.
    If you're updating your iPad with an over-the-air iOS update, the following Knowledge Base article offers up some practical steps for troubleshooting some of the issues that can arise:
    Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update - Apple Support
    In your instance, these sections may prove particularly useful:
    Download takes a long time, or you can't reach update server
    iOS updates require a persistent Internet connection, and the time it takes to download the update will vary according to the size of the update and your Internet speed. You can use your device normally while downloading the iOS update, and iOS will notify you when you can install the update. To improve the speed of the download, avoid downloading other content.
    If you get a message that "an error occurred downloading iOS," try again later. If the issue persists, try updating your device in another network or use iTunes to update your device. Learn more about iOS updates.
    Update does not complete
    If you're installing the update and the progress bar appears to move slowly, be patient. The time an update takes depends on the size of the update and the number of files on the device.
    When you're updating over the air, keep your device connected to a power source so that it doesn't run out of power. If your device does run out of power, connect it to a power source and turn on the device to let the update or restore complete.
    If the update never completes and the progress bar hasn't moved for an extended time, try restarting your device. If you still see the issue after you restart, see what to do if your device appears frozen or won't start.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • HT1498 I rented a movie last night and it downloaded the first 11 minutes (while we watched) then errored out with a message saying try again later.  We tried again later (for two hours!) no help.  How do I contact Apple for a credit?

    I was able to watch other content (including HD Previews of movies we hadn't purchased) os the network connection shouldn't have been the problem.  Just a spinning wheel and Rumplestiltzken turning my time into Apple's gold.  Now I am on the support pages and can't find a simple selection to request a credit for the movie we won't get to watch because the 24 hour clock started when we started watching it and is now at about 10 hours with me just arriving at work.  I also considered pulling it down to my MB Pro, but found out that since I started the download on my Apple TV, if I wanted the same movie on my MB, I would have to pay for it again... I am less than pleased so far with Apple TV.

    Okay, so istumbler says my connection goes to yellow when I go to the Aple TV location, but my internet speed is greatly increased tonight (20Mbps on speedtest.net near the router and 15.49Mbps at the Apple TV).  Upload is unchanged at a little under 1Mbps).  I did manage to get the Apple Contact location and I am sure they will post a credit for the movie (since their logs will show repeated attepts to download and no joy, although we both know they won't go to the trouble to look at them).  As far as I'm concerned, it was a one-time problem and until it happens again to me, I will remain convinced it was on their end of the connection or in between (although that was unlikely).  I've been administering and managing netowrks for over 20 years and am pretty confident that the connection on my end was working.

  • HT1657 Just rented a movie last night and the computer said, there's a problem in downloading, I couldn't watch the movie even in my computer.

    The movie I rented last night wasn't downloaded.
    what's the problem? Is my money going to be returned if I won't be able to watch it?

    The movie I rented last night wasn't downloaded.
    Do you get an error message when you try to download the rental? If so, what error message number are you getting?

  • I rented a movie last night , watched it , then went to watch it again within the 48hr period , to find it was gone

    I rented a movie at nine last night , went to watch it again at seven , to find it gone , and yet they say u have 48hrs to watch it as many times as u like ??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    if you do something else on the Apple TV after watching the movie it will need downloading again, but you should be able to do this for 48 hrs (assuming your in a location that gives you 48 hours)

  • So I just got my iphone, and i was trying to get it to download songs on my phone, when the phone suddenly died, and even though im charging it right now, it still won't turn on, been going on about 30 min to an hour now

    So i just bought my Iphone, and i was trying to put songs on it from Itunes, when it suddenly turned off, and even though i have been charging it for the last hour, can not get it to even work, any suggestions?

    Try a Reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
