you can't, unless you fulfill these requirements:
From the itunes store terms of service:
+to purchase from an iTunes Store in a particular country, you must have both a residential address and a billing address in that particular country. Items on any particular country's iTunes Store are available only for distribution to customers who use a credit card, debit card, iTunes Gift Certificate, or iTunes Gift Card issued in and for that country.+

Assuming it's in a supported format (which is likely), simply sync your iPad to iTunes on your computer. Make sure you have specified that you would like to sync movies on the "movies" tab on the top right of the iTunes display (when your iPad is plugged in and its row highlighted).

Rental movies from iTunes Store

Dear Friends,
Trying to rent a movie from iTunes Store, why in some cases the icon where to click to rent the movie is a liter shade of gray and won't let me rent the movie when compared to other movies in the same catagory? My account has the proper funds. Here is an other twist, this happens on MacBook Air, but does not happen on iPad. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for the assistance in advance.

Launch iTunes on the MBAir.
From the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click iTunes > Preferences then select the Parental Tab.
Deselect: Explicit Content
Then click OK.

Purchasing Movie from Itunes Store..

If I purchase a movie from Itunes, can I burn it to a DVD in order to watch from my Blu Ray player/TV?

I just purchsed new movies from iTunes store but to transfer to my ipod, it says it will delete 5 other movies from my other pc. Any ideas?

I have an ipod classic 160gb and it has 145gb available
I have 4 pcs authorized. 1 for each of my family members when I visit. I had recently purchased several movies from the iTunes store before leaving florida, now here in Maryland. I decided to purchsed more. when I attempt to upload from the itunes library to my ipod movies, it gives me a window error explaining:
"This ipod is currently linked to another iTunes library. In order to copy the movie Goonies to this ipod, you must link this ipod with this iTunes library. Doing so will remove 5 movies including Trading Places from this iPod."
Well, this is unaccectable since all my other movies, including the 5 it wishes to remove are on my home PC in florida. All the movies were purchased from iTunes yet only my recent purchases show up in the library folder - which makes no sense unless it auto deletes itself after a period of time?
I have copied the movies from the library folder to this pc just in case but I cannot find a way to copy or backup my ipod to my PC just in case itunes wipes my movies.
Any help or ideas?

ATV3 frame rate on HD movies from iTunes store

I bought the ATV3 recently, and I've rented two movies off the iTunes store. Both play very smoothly most of the time, but in patches it just looks like it's missing a few frames. Like it's 20fps instead of 30 (I actually don't know what it's supposed to be, this is just an example). It's still watchable, but it's noticeably worse. I might get 20 seconds of smooth followed by 5 seconds of jitter, followed by 30 seconds of smooth. It can be very hard to detect depending on what's happening on screen, but you can definitely see it during action scenes or scrolling credits.
Both movies I have rented were HD (not sure, maybe they all are). My internet connection is sufficient that it isn't pausing to buffer. I paused the movie halfway through and it had already buffered the entire movie.
Any ideas why the frame rate would be dropping? I expect the CPU to be able to play a HD movie at 1080p at full frame rate: this is what the product is designed to do. So I want to know why it doesn't. Is it defective and should be returned? Am I doing something wrong? A setting is incorrect? All settings are still default apart from unit name & apple ID type settings. Video settings haven't been changed.
Any assistance/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Ian

Thanks a million Alley_Cat, looks like that was it. I have a Samsung Plasma (PS50A750), and they have a mode called "Movie Plus". Looks like it does some sort of motion smoothing algorithm, and was set to "Low" by default. When set to High I saw the problem more often, and when set to Off it has disappeared.
Unfortunately the motion generally looks much smoother with this turned on (which is what it's designed to do). In particular it has a demo mode (what they'd use in a store display), and with any panning camera or scrolling text (credits) you can see it makes a huge difference. Switched on the motion is ultra-smooth, off it is very very slighly jerky. Unfortunately with it switched on it has patches of real jerkiness (how's the technical jargon?!). But I accept this is a problem with my TV processing software, and unfortunately they never released any firmware updates for it.
Maybe time for a new TV
Thanks for the help, and especially the speedy response!

Cant access purchased movies from itunes store

Hi I have a macbook 10.6.8 and iphone 4. movies I have previously bought in itunes appear on my phone but not in itunes -ive tried to transfer purchased to macbook but keep getting 'itunes temporarily unavailable' despite the fact that Im signed in at time. Im using same id etc as when purchased and have checked my account. im trying to transfer to macbook so that i can sync on to ipad. Searched help topics but no use -i've been trying for several days

It may not be the "file type," but the resolution, if the downloaded movies are "HD." The tech specs for the 4th gen iPod touch
http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/specs.html
states the video playback capabilities for the 4th gen iPod touch, where is says TV and Video. It sounds like 720p (1280x720) is sometimes supported, but not always, and I believe some iTunes Store content is now 1080p. If you do a Get Info in iTunes on the movies, you should get details about resolution and file type.
However, in any case, for the small size of an iPod touch screen, if the movies you downloaded are "HD" (720p or higher), you should probably download the SD (standard def) version for use with your iPod touch. The SD version also takes up less than half the storage space of the HD version, and probably uses less battery power when played (because the iPod's processor does not need to work as hard).
I believe you are entitled to download the SD version at no additional cost, if you paid for the HD version. You should be able to do it from the Purchased screen in the iTunes Store.

Another Apple TV now slow to download movies from iTunes store.

G'Day all there is a lot of conversation from people experiencing poor download speed when renting movies from the apple iTunes store using the Apple TV (ATV) interface but no solutions I can find yet so sorry to bring it up again. I have a Gen 2 ATV on wireless (Apple time capsule modem router) which worked very well up until several months ago but now can take hours to stream a SD movie when before it took minutes. However using the same ATV to view long uTube video's they seem to work fine ie play straight away yes they are smaller over all but still play straight up rather than initial buffer like the movies, the signal strength is high the updates are all done and I've also done resets I can download the same movie to my either of Mac's beside the ATV in minutes then stream it to the ATV and watch on on my TV without a problem and also do it from anywhere else in the house so dont think using a direct network cable will help to far anyway. I am in Australia and have a 12/1mbps fibre optic connection plan and speed tests to anywhere say the same. I am using and have always used the automatic DNS setting however some net topics say changing it may help others indicate dont.

We also are attempting to download an iTunes (TV show in our case) and we also are not able to do so tonight. We've done it a lot in times past and it normally takes seconds to a few minutes at most to be able to start playing the show/movie. But something has been wrong the past couple days (we're still trying to learn what's going on) and we see messages like it's going to take 44 hours and 10 minutes before we can start playing. Obviously, that's not useable. My guess is iTunes is swamped or having some server issues here at the holidays??? We're also seeing some strange, sporadic network issues which we never have here at our home. So that might be complicating the issue.
But the answer to your question is that under normal circumstances and without the system being overwhelmed, it will typically only take a few seconds to maybe a very few minutes before enough of the movie downloads so you can begin watching it. And from that point, you will be able to watch all ther rest of it as it will continue to download while you watch the first part...

ITunes 7.0.1(7): Problems Downloading Movies from iTunes Store

Prior to installing the iTunes 7.0.1(7) upgrade, I had no problems downloading movies from the iTunes store. After I noticed that there appeared to be rate-limiting on the inital movie that I purchased, I simultaneously downloaded three other movies and watched one of the movies while they were downloading.
No problems with downloading multiple movies but severe problems with using iTunes 7.0.0 as a viewer. An inadvertent movement or click of the mouse resulted in the video portion of the movie disappearing. To solve the problem, I created symlinks in the QuickTime Player's ~/Movies directory to the downloaded movies. Using QuickTime as a viewer was a significant improvement over iTunes.
Upgraded to iTunes 7.0.1(7) when it was released. Today I discovered that the release has significant problems downloading movies.
After the initial download of the movie to /private/tmp, the iTunes download panel displays a message stating that it is processing the file. One would assume that it is inserting the chapter bookmarks and transferring it to the ~Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Movies directory.
Not so. Its downloading the movie a second time. The processing file message is displayed a second time followed by a pop-up window reprting that the file is corrupt with an error code of 10008. Looks like one of Window's infamous network error codes. Wonder what it's doing on a Mac?
Enough of my diatribe. Are others seeing this? Do you have a "work around" or solution to the problem?
PowerBook 17, PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8) iTunes 7.0.1(7)

I did run Disk Utility after reporting my problems here and to the iTunes Store. The "Check Permissions" scan found two iTunes with the incorrect permissions. As the permissions were correct prior to the upgrade, I presume the executable permission flags were turned on during the upgrade. Repaired the permission problems.
Also, I performed a reboot as was mentioned in a discussion of a slightly different problem. I was able to download one of the movies. The second failed about half-way through the download with a 9006 error.

How can I get an HD movie from iTunes store to play on original iPad

I recently purchased an HD movie--Brave--from the iTunes store. I'm trying to play on my original iPad (iPad 1), but iTunes refuses to synch it because it says it is an unsupported format. The movie is in 1080p format. I typically get both HD and SD formats when I purchase movies, but iTunes no longer downloads the SD version automatically when I purchase the HD version. I attempted to get an SD version from the store, but it said I already purchased the movie and instructed me to check the downloads. There is no SD download pending and a check for new downloads was fruitless.
Can someone confirm that the original iPad is unable to play HD video? I imagine it is the 1080p that's the problem. Can anyone confirm that 720p would work? Is there no longer a means to get both HD and SD when purchasing a movie from the iTunes store? If there is, how?
Thanks for your help.
Jamie

You can get the SD or 720p version by:
Open iTunes 11
Click iTunes in menu bar > select Preferences...
Click on the Store tab
Change When downloading High Definition videos, prefer dropdown to 720p > click OK
Click on the iTunes Store button
Click Purchased link
Click Movies tab
You should now see a download icon for the movies you already have 1080p version of.
Click on this download icon to download the 720p version.
This will put a 720p version in the same folder on your hard drive as the 1080p version. If you have iTunes setup to play 1080p when available, it will play the 1080p version. When you connect your iPad 1, it will sync the 720p version.
Don't forget to change your preference back to 1080p so you can continue to get the higher quality version.
