HT4528 How do I erase a rented movie from my Iphone if its not not showing up in my Itunes?

I rented a movie on itunes using my phone and never got to watch it called itunes support to get my money back. I did and now the movie is still showing on my phone but wont play!! I got on the computer to delete it from my Itunes but its not showing up.. I had other iphone users try to erase it off my phone but no luck! it is using up a lot of my memory can someone plz help!!!!!!!

I expected that it would show up in Rentals, but there was no such category.
Eventually I figured it out. The rental had not actually finished downloading to my computer because, right at the end, error 5103 occurred. A quick Google search pointed me to http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1597, and I followed those directions. From there, the download immediately finished, and showed up promptly in Rentals on the Apple TV.
So, for future reference, a movie rented on a computer cannot be streamed to an Apple TV until it is finished downloading. Learn something new every day, I guess.

    How can I delete a watched rented movie from my Ipad before its expiration date?

    Hello, K M Cartwright. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    You definitely can delete the movie prior to the expiration date.  However, the movie will automatically disappear from your iTunes library 24 (or 48) hours after you've begun viewing it.  Here are the steps on how to delete iTunes media.

  • How do you play a rented movie from my iPhone 4S to the TV through airplay and Apple TV?

    I attempted to rent a movie on my iPhone 4S and play it through airplay to my Apple TV. I could not at any time view any video from that rental but could here the soundtrack. Is there some setting/adjustment that I failed to complete?

    To answer quickly, you cannot move a rented movie from your iPhone to your computer (or anywhere else). You'll have to watch it on the phone.

  • HT1657 How to you tranfer a rented movie from you iphone to your ipad

    Can get the movie to move over to my ipad.  Never watched it and time is running out.

    If you downloaded it directly on your phone then you can't. From the page that you posted from :
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    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.

  • How do you delete duplicate songs from your iPhone that do not show up in your iTunes library?

    everytime i purchase songs on itunes and sync them to my iphone 4, the songs downloads twice. one as the actual song, and the second one doesnt do anything. when you click on it, it just skips to the next song and doesnt play anything. also this second song has this cirlce dot thing next to it when i am scrolling through my songs in my music...so how do i get rid of this second download? its really annoying to have and it wont let me delete it off my phone. alsoooo since it doesnt show up in my itunes library, i cant delte it off there either! HELP PLEASE

    On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
    Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
    Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
    And now it’s gone.
    If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.

  • How to delete an album from my iphone that is not showing on my PC iTunes?

    an album and its songs are listed on my iphone iTunes but they are absent in my PC iTunes, so syncing does not remove that album. Any suggestions ?
    Darwinobambino

    Hey darwinobambino,
    It seems like you are asking about how to delete some an album on your iPhone. If this album is one that you have downloaded, then you can use the following article to help you delete it:
    iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
    Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete. The song is removed from iPhone, but remains available from iCloud.
    View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

  • How do i transfer a rented movie from my user account to my wife's user account?

    How do I transfer a rented movie from my user account to my wife's user account?  I sync my iPad with my user account and she sync's her iPad with her user account, but she wants the movie I downloaded onto her iPad.  (We use the same apple ID).

    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202 - You can manage your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers as long as you have set the device to "Manually manage music."  -  e.g. adding music from a second computer to an i-device.
    Hold on.  I don't know if the above will work with a rented movie.  There's all kinds of restrictions on what you can do with rented movies.

    I don't know much, but I can follow instructions. How can I get my rental movie from my iPhone to my iPad.... And I've rented another movie, now I want to get it from pc to iPad....help be much appreciated...

    Did you rent the film directly on the iPhone ? I've never rented films, but from : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
    You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
    If you've rented a film on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to sync it to your iPad from your computer's iTunes via the Movies tab that shows on the right-hand side of iTunes when you've selected the iPad 'device' on its left-hand side

  • How can i erase my .me mails from my iPhone and keep them in the server

    how can i erase my .me mails from my iPhone and keep them in the server

    You can't. The iPhone doesn't actually store all your emails anyway. It is showing you what is on the server directly.
    Only the most recently accessed emails are cached (stored temporarily) on your phone for access when you are offline. If you delete an email from your iPhone, you are actually deleting it from the server.

  • The movies from my Iphone 5 are not coming across on Apple TV. The little spinning beach ball appears like it is thinking.  It use to work but quick working a month ago.

    The movies from my Iphone 5 are not coming across on Apple TV. The little spinning beach ball appears like it is thinking.  It use to work fine but quick working a month ago. I mirror from my phone to the Apple TV.  Still images and everything I do on the phone is mirrored on to the TV except when I want to show a YouTube video or any video and then the screen on the phone and the TV screen go black and the spinning beach ball appears.  The videos open right up on the phone if I do not have mirroring on and going through the Apple TV.  I just downloaded the latest update to the phone it did not fix the problem.  Please help.  Thanks, Elvis G

    Hello Elvis G,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps concerning device issues. You may want to consider a reset, then testing to see if the issue is resolved:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • How can I delete this U2 album from my iPhone it's not letting me do it like I normally do

    How can I delete this U2 album from my iPhone it's not letting me do it like I normally do

    King Penguin,
    Your response does not address the actual question.
    The issue is that once downloaded to a device (iPhone) etc. It cannot be deleted via any means. Went through troubleshooting with Apple on phone last night and they're puzzled by it... it's getting sent to their engineers.
    The larger issue is that the album downloads AUTOMATICALLY when you have your purchases synced, on wifi, and listening to music on full shuffle.
    Telling people to just "hide it" and change your phone's settings to not sync is a pretty big "whoopsie" by Apple and Apple Support Community members.
    BAD MOVE APPLE!
