You must have a slower connection if it took 2.5 hours, did you pause it or exit out to the main screen? I've paused movies many times and it resumes..it could be due to the connection as well so what is your actual speed? Check www.speedtest.net Wifi or ethernet? Have you changed the DNS settings?

I have just rented two movies and after download they are not visible anywhere in iTunes for me to watch.

I have just rented two movies and after download they are not visible anywhere for me to view. Usually in the iTunes menu there is an option call 'rentals' where rented movies sit until they expire, this is no longer visible. The movie files are listed in the finder under music/movies.... With the rest of my iTunes data, but they will not play in iTunes from there and I can't add them to my library for watching.
The only thing I am currently doing differently is that I have just subscribed to iTunes Match; would this affect my rentals?

Hi Cmcb,
Under your Library list, you should see "Movies". Click on that, and you will see a screen with several tabs at the top - Rentals, Unwatched, Movies, Genres, Home Videos, etc.
As Hackintosh indicated above, click on the Rentals tab, and your movies will be displayed there. Doulbe click on one to start playing it.
If you do not have your sidebar showing, go up to View at the top, and click on Show Sidebar. Then you will see your Library lists on the sidebar, which will include Movies.
Cheers,
GB

I have noticed an issue with utilizing the “stream” function on iOS 7. If you choose to just stream the movie by hitting the play button it seems to actually start downloading (which is fine) but if you are say halfway thru the movie and stop you can clearly see that storage has been reduced under the usage, yet under the “videos” tab it still states “No Data” the only way to delete what you have partially downloaded is to fully download the video, which is fine but there is no way to tell what videos have been partially downloaded (I.e which occurs a lot when your child switches between movies using the so called “stream” function). This becomes troublesome once the capacity of the ipad is almost met and you have no way to delete this data since you may have several videos that have started to be viewed (hence partially downloaded). Apple needs to somehow make it truly streaming or provide an update so the storage can be managed. The only way I have been able to remove partially downloaded videos is by doing a total software restore. (The video data that is in question when connected to my MacBook shows up in iTunes as “other”) if you have any insight into this issue it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Here are the screenshots for what it's worth.
Not sure why I can't post them in the original post.

'''Again, when I set my DNS server to automatically detect the servers both problems disappear and I have no issues at all.'''
IMO opendns is either doing this on purpose (unlikely) or they're under some sort of attack/being used to attack the specific torrent sites although I'm open to other explanations. I believe using the automatic setting for DNS is using my own ISP's DNS servers (which again, work fine... but still...)
I'd rather not use Google's public DNS servers as Google is to commercial these days and I think there's potential privacy issues.
'''Again I have changed the setting for DNS servers back and forth several times to duplicate/verify the issue(s)... and the issues only happen with the opendns servers.'''

I just rented a movie and now it wont play. it tells me to go to settings, then downloads but there is no download button

I am trying to rent a movie. I rented it then pushed play then the menu button by mistake. My TV tells me to go to settings, then downloads the check for downloads but there is no download button. what do i do to watch the movie i rented?

It does... Apple TV has a problem with the assignment to the itunes account after updating. Restore to factory settings or unlog and news login to the itunes store helps to see the rented/downloaded film(s).

TS3356 I have compiled my movie and I downloaded it into iphoto. I then transfered it to imovie. The movie shows fine, but when trying to export it to facebook, the share menu does not highlight. Any help would be appreciated.

You may be attempting to Share (export) the movie from the Event Library. You need to create a Project, drag clips (or segments of clips) from the Event to the Project, then use the Share menu to export the Project. Movie clips can't be exported directly from the Event. Clips you add to a Project reference (point to) the clips in the associated Event (or Events).

I just rented a movie on I tunes and it is not showing up on my I Pad?

Did you use iTunes on your computer, or iTunes on your iPad? If you rented it on your computer, you need to transfer it from there to your iPad. Plug in the iPad, select it in iTunes, and select the Movies tab. A Rented Movies section should appear.

I just rented a movie on my ipad, and now want to watch it on my Apple Tv

I just rented a movie on my iPad (which does not have sufficient space to download the movie) with hopes of being able to watch it on my Apple Tv when I got home. However, when i got home, the Apple TV is says that i need to re-rent it. If i 'purchased' (rented) the movie on my iPad, shouldn't it be in my iCloud, so that I can watch it on any device?

A movie purchased on an iPad can only be viewed on an iPad. You would need to rent via computer and use home sharing or directly on Apple TV if you wish to view on your HDTV.
You haven't purchased the movie, it's a rental and thus won't be available in the cloud.
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.
