Burning movies bought in the iTunes store?

Is it possible to burn movies bought in the iTunes store onto DVD so i can play them through a normal DVD player? It's kind of difficult for me and my family (four of us) to all gather around my 13.3" screen to watch a movie that i bought. Any help is appreciated.

Officially no, they will allow you to back-up the movie as a "data file" on a DVD (for back-up purposes), but not burn it onto a DVD to watch in a DVD player. You would need to either connect your computer to your TV, or there are accessories available to connect your ipod, for video playback.
There are some hacks/workarounds out there (try googling this topic), but nothing official.

  • Why is it that it takes ages to watch a movie bought on the Itunes store, compared to Netflix which is instant? I don't understand this?

    Why is it that it takes ages to watch a movie bought on the Itunes store, compared to Netflix which is instant? I don't understand this? I can watch a two and a half hour movie on netflix and it'll take maybe a minute to buffer but when I want to watch something I bought on itunes it always takes like six hours to watch a movie about an hour and a half?

    I am currently having the same problem. Did you ever get this resolved?
    Thanks.

  • While importing and burning some CDs, my entire library has disappeared.  Also, there no longer is a "burn file to disc" command in the File menu.  I have downloaded the latest version of itunes which restored only tracks I bought from the iTunes store.

    Also, the "burn playlist to disc" command has disappeared from the File options.  I downloaded the latest version of iTunes but that only restored tracks I'd bought from the iTunes store.  I also tried setting up another logon.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be copied & renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to an earlier state. Look for a recent .tmp file that is similar in size to the .itl files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder. If it has happened repeatedly you may want the earliest such file generated since the last iTunes upgrade.
    If applicable, see iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.

  • Help! movies i bought in the itunes store willl not sync to my iphone

    I recently purchased rocky from the itunes store. As soon as the movie finished downloading, I attempted to put it on my iphone, but when i did this an error message appeard which said that rocky could not be copied onto my iphone because it cannot be played on my iphone. I then tryed syncing another video i bought from the itunes store, and the result was the same. Is this a problem with my iphone, or do certain movies on itunes just not play on the iphone?

    That is odd as I didn't have this problem with mine. Do the movies play on iTunes okay?

  • I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?

    I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?  I have authorized my computer but none of them are in my music now.

    You buy one and only one download.
    It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    Certainly you did not update your ipod without making sure that you had transferred anything purchased on the ipod to your computer and included it in your regular backup copy of your computer.

  • I am unable to transfer song bought from the itunes store to my ipod- can anyone please assist?

    I am unable to transfer song bought from the itunes store to my ipod- can anyone please assist?

    What happens when you try?
    If the song is an older purchase (from more than a few years ago), it may have DRM (copy protection).  You can check by selecting the song on a list in iTunes, and doing a Get Info (right click - Get Into).  On the Info window Summary tab, if Kind is Protected AAC audio file, it has DRM.  Also note what it says there for Apple ID.  You need to authorize the computer you use with the iPod to play content purchased with that Apple ID.
    From the iTunes menu bar, under Store, select Authorize This Computer.  Enter the Apple ID (and password) used to purchase the song.  One computer can be authorize for multiple Apple IDs.
    NOTE:  More recent iTunes Store song purchases do not use DRM, although other type of media (such as TV shows and movies) still do.
    If that's not the cause of your problem, please post back with more details...

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

    Backup do not contaiuns music or apps, you will either need to resync them from your itunes computer, or you can go to purchase history in itunes or app store app and go to purchase history and redownload them.

    never mind.  i think it just makes you review the information -- it looks like you have to click through everything.

    Some songs, which are bought in the iTunes store, will be played iTunes but not on my iPod touch. Has somebody an explanation for that? Thanks,

    No, you should have Restrictions OFF.
    Computer's iTunes > Preferences > Parental Preferences > everything should be unchecked.
    Are the songs also on computer's iTunes?

  • Movie rentals from the iTunes store

    Hi everyone,
    I just downloaded the latest version of iTunes after hearing about movie rentals from the iTunes store. After the install (which installed cleanly), I went to the movie section and do not see an option to rent any movies.
    Am I missing something? Is there a different place or section that I need to be in to rent movies?
    Has anyone else noticed this?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks!
    Don

    I don't think that movie rentals are available yet on iTunes or Apple TV. Note the "Movie Rentals, Coming Soon" on the blue circle next to the tv at http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?nnmm=br owse&mco=7B723644&node=home/shopipod/family/appletv
    and rentals will be available on iTunes, it says it on the new features list

  • What are the perks to pre-ordering movie rentals in the itunes store?

    What are the perks to pre-ordering movie rentals in the itunes store?

    You can purchase music using multiple accounts within the same Windows profile & using the same iTunes library. I think when you log into the store it remembers the last account name used, but provided you don't let it remember your password then you have the opportunity to enter the correct details for each purchase.
    If you're going to place these purchases on your respective iPod's the following may help.
    *How to use multiple iPods with one computer*
    The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
    e.g.
    "Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
    "Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
    Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
    etc.
    I currently manage our family's five iPods using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their iPod. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.
