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."

  • I downloaded and bought a movie from iTunes on my iPad and now want the same movie on my MacBook Pro but its not offering me to download it, it giving me the options of buying it which I already did. How I get the movie onto my MacBook?

    You can connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, that should copy it over to the Movies part of your library.
    Depending upon what country that you are in, and whether the film studio allows it, you might also be able to re-download it on your Mac via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page.

  • Is there a way to rent a movie from iTunes to my Ipad and then view it on my TV ?

    I've rented them for my iPad before, but can I view a movie on my HDTV?
    Thanks very much

    Yes.
    Wirelessly with Airplay and with an Apple TV 2 connected to your HDTV with the Apple TV connected to the same wireless network as your iPad.

  • Can i use an iTunes Gift Card to rent a movie from iTunes on my iPad? And if so, how?

    Can i use an iTunes Gift Card to rent a movie from iTunes on my iPad? And if so, how?

    Why can't I use an iTunes gift card in Canada to purchase apps for my iTouch?
    Inquiries to the iTunes Store have yielded only the following explanation:
    "Due to tax laws and commerce restrictions for software in Canada, customers residing in Canada may only purchase games and applications using a credit card."
    What these "laws/restrictions" might be have never been identified.
    Can I somehow exchange the giftcards that I have for App gift cards?
    There are no "app gift cards". Again, you can only use a credit card to purchase software in the Canadian iTunes Store.
    Problem is I don't have a credit card to purchase the apps.
    Perhaps you could obtain one of the "prepaid" credit cards some banks offer. If not, then the only way you'll be able to buy apps is to get someone to allow you to use their credit card.

  • HT201667 I rented a movie through itunes on my ipad and wanted to watch it with friends on a digital projector, but it wouldn't allow me to do it.  Is there any way around this?

    I  rented a movie through itunes on my ipad and wanted to watch it with friends on a digital projector, but it wouldn't allow me to do it.  Is there any way around this?

    The issue was that a dialogue box came up which said that I couldn't play this movie on another device.  I tried playing the same movie on an Tv with an HDMI connection attached to an adapter to the IPad and that worked.  I wonder if the problem is that the digital projector has a VGA connection.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.

  • HT1498 I have rented several movies from iTunes on my iPad, just bought apple tv, can I watch the rented movies from my iPad on the tv ?

    I have an iPad and have rent several movies from iTunes, I have just bought apple tv, why can't I watch my rented movies on the tv, my home share is activated ? Have I just wasted £99 ?

    Hi,
    Yes, start the movie on your iPad and tap on the AirPlay icon and chose AppleTV from the list.
    You can't "transfert" your rental to your AppleTV but you can stream it using AirPlay.

  • Rented a movie from iTunes, playback has stopped and no longer works.

    Today I rented and downloaded a movie from the iTunes store. Got about 5 minutes into it and the playback froze.... I tried to fast forward... Nothing. Tried to rewind. Nothing. So I closed iTunes completely and reopened. Now when I try to play the rental, I just get a black screen. I don't want to waste $4.

  • Hello my name is Juan and I own a iPod, the newest one, and 3 days ago I rented 2 movies from iTunes on the iPod and one has expired but doesn't remove itself from the downloads pg is there a way where I can get rid of it? Its takin up my memory

    Hello my name is Juan and I own an iPod touch, the newest one, and I rented 2 movies the other day in itunes through the ipod and I was able to download one movie and watch it but the with the other one I havent watched...it downloaded it and watched like 3 minutes of it then I had to download it again but it had already expired but it's still in the download page in iTunes and it says error to download tap again to retry and I did but it didn't work so I don't know what to do...is there anyway I can take it out of my download page? Because its takin to much space in my iPod >_<

    Transfer all of your content to the computer:
    Tunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    Then try turning the device off and on again. I'd leave it off for 10-15 minutes, but that is up to you:

    If the item is still there, you may need to restore the device:

    Hope that helps . Worst case scenario, you may need to write into iTunes support to see if they can also help!!

  • I rented a movie from itunes on my computer and it stopped playing. won't restart.

    I was in the middle of watching a movie I rented and it just stopped. I cannot get it to play again. the play button no longer works??

    You device has limited capacity.
    If you have toooooooo many movies, that occupy toooooo much space, you will not be able to add any movies oor music without deleting something else.

  • HT4095 Can I download movies from iTunes to my iPad and watch them on line as well in case I don't have my iPad with me.

    I have a 16gig iPad mini with latest iOS software.
    Please can anyone advise on the following.
    If I buy a movie on iTunes, can I download it onto my iPad and keep it there?
    If I then delete it, can I download it again free?
    If I do not have my iPad with me, can I watch it online through iTunes?

    The film will need to be downloaded in order to watch it, you can't stream it from the store. Whether you can re-download a film will depend upon what country that you are in and whether it remains in the store (studios occasionally remove them). You are better off keeping your own backup copy of all of your downloads rather that relying on being able to re-download from the store in the future (you can copy purchases from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases)
    What can be re-downloaded where : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085
    You can also get wifi-enabled drives which allow you to stream your content to your iPad, so not everything needs to be stored on it e.g. GoFlex Satellite (there are other makes as well).

  • I rented 5 movies from iTunes. 3 worked, and 2 do not.  What gives?

    I haven't made any changes to this device. I've tried resetting the device settings and restarting the iPad. No dice. It just gives me this error: "This movie could not be played."
    I had to spend a cross country flight and a long bus ride without entertainment (god forbid!)
    Help would be amazing.

    Lion creates local snapshots on the hard drive. Sort of a mini Time Machine, but not really. They are essentially temporary snapshots that the OS will delete when it needs more space for just about any other reason.

  • I rented a movie from iTunes and now it's not working

    I rented a movie from iTunes on my iPad and it started downloading.  For some reason it stopped.  The movie is showing up in the video app but when I hit play or the download cloud it tells me I have rented the movie but have not downloaded it.  I go back to iTunes and the download section is gone.  I go back to the movie, where you can buy or rent, and it says watch....which if clicked on takes me back to videos.  And then it again tells me I have rented the movie but have not downloaded it and to go to Downloads to manage my downloads.  THERE IS NO DOWNLOAD SECTION OR OPTION IN ITUNES....IT IS GONE!!  I have closed iTunes and restarted my iPad several times and am still having the same issue.  I have rented movies in the past with no issues.  I have NO IDEA what is going on and am very very frustrated.  Hopefully someone can help.
    Thanks!!

    I would ask iTunes Store support for help with this. You may never be able to get the movie to download on your own now.
    Go here and then tap on Connecting and downloading, then tap on Movie Rentals. You can have someone contact you, you can chat online or you can get email support. I would opt for the phone call or online chat.
