Can apple tv be used to play purchased movies without broadband via airplay

can apple tv be used to play purchased movies from a ipad without broadband via airplay

The only times I've tried - on holiday/vacation with no broadband - this has failed because Airplay of protected content requires a brief authorisation connection to Apple's servers.
Conversely an ipad hooked up to a TV using the HDMI adapter works without internet for media stored on it as does a Mac computer running iTunes eg MacMini with HDMI out.

Apple TV (3rd gen)wont play purchased movies

Having an issue with playing my purchased movies. The issue is that I click play on the movie I want and the gray circle shows like its loading then it reverts back to the play screen again. I have reset it to factory and after 8 minutes or so when it comes up it allows me to play and watch 1 movie. After I stop the movie or try to go into a different movie it no longer works and I have the same issue again. I have checked my firewall and my Avg they are not the issue. I have reset my Internet and the same problem continues. Air play, HBO to go, Netflix all work no issues.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Same problem -- click play, changes to "loading screen" for a few seconds, then flashes back to the "play" screen. I also can't purchase other movies. The first two times I tried, the "are you sure purchase buttons" screen, click it and it flashes back to the movie not screen. Just now, I tried again after restarting, It got me to a screen that required my security code for my credit card. After I put it in, it said I'd have to go to iTunes to finish the authorization. The first time I tried through my iTunes account, it said the service wasn't available. The second time, it let me enter the numbers. Now, back to the Apple TV, again, it wants the security code again. Several attempts failed.
Now, trying to download a free iphone game: iTunes story is temporarily unavailable.
I'm persistant.
Added:
Apple TV is running 6.0.
Netflix plays fine.
Music (itunes match) plays fine.

Received a email from Apple stating that my Apple ID was used for a purchase not on my device. It had a link to cancel purchase but asked for my email and password which I gave then it wanted my credit card info! I didn't give that,what should I do?

Do you think this is just a way to get my credit card information?

It sounds like a phishing email. You can't "cancel" purchases. You've now given them your AppleID and password, so you should immediately change your password to something new and very secure.
Also watch out for suspicicious activity on your account.

How can i make apple tv 3 store all my purchased movies and tv shows onto a hard drive somewhere in my house

Currently my apple tv 3 downloads movies/shows when I want to watch them. I'd prefer if it downloaded everything already and it is all available locally without having to download gigabytes from the internet.
Q: How can i make apple tv 3 store all my purchased movies and tv shows onto a hard drive somewhere in my house?
a) Impossible
b) Link my apple tv 3 to a computer running itunes
c) Link my apple tv 3 to my Apple Time Machine
d) purchase an external USB drive and plug it directly to the apple tv 3
e) purchase a NAS drive and configure the apple tv 3 to use it
f) [your answer here]
Thank you,
Chris

Hi! Dwagner, once again ...
I've just got my Mac last friday ... i'm still getting amazed with this new world to me ... eehe .. quite different ... but
... "i can do it, i can do it" eheeh
i'm in that period that a new question appears at almost every mouse click ... lol
so ... can you help me (once again) ..
you said you had your hard drive with this settings...
"You can partition for OSX (extended Journal) - read/write by only OSX or read only by Windows via BootCamp
You can partition for Windows (NTFS) - readable by only Windows
OR - you can format with ex-FAT and this is read/write capable for both operating systems."
how did you formated the partition in NTFS ? ... on the mac? using the "disk utility" ? or did you use another program to do so ...?
i hope i'm not "bugging" you ... this might be a silly question for most of people ... but right now ... it's a major question for me ... ehehe
once again Obrigado (Thank You)

We have a movie downloaded on a laptop connected to the internet pluged into our router in the basement and an apple tv upstairs trying to play the movie through home sharing but it wont play. can anyone tell me whats wrong?

we have a movie downloaded on a laptop connected to the internet pluged into our router in the basement and an apple tv upstairs trying to play the movie through home sharing but it wont play. can anyone tell me whats wrong? it comes to the last loading page where it shows the desscription of the movie befor it acually plays.

It can come about without any change done by the user, and it's not just from other networks. The placement of the router can also affect performance. Also make sure router is up to date.
Apart from that would be the reboots.

Can Apple TV be used in South Africa?
I want to give Apple TV as a gift to someone who will soon move there. Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes, it will work anywhere. You may however not have all the features that are elsewhere, depending on what is available in SA.

Can Apple TV be used to simply stream content, such as material streamed from web, to TV?

Can Apple TV be used to simply stream content, such as material streamed from web, to television?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV can't stream content from the Internet, unless it is through a pre-installed app that runs on the Apple TV, of which there are about a dozen.
You'd need to elaborate on your question, if you want further information.

Can Apple TV be used to connect OS X to TV as monitor?

I am looking for a way to use my TV as monitor (and maybe use the TV speakers as well) for my Macbook Pro but connect to the TV over the network. Can Apple TV be used for something like this?
Any other idea?

Khaled,

Try writing a personalization on the PO screen that adds the following condition to the where clause
"and authorization_status !='APPROVED'
However, I will be careful with a blanket restriction like this. There are situations when you need to modify an existing PO. So you should code some exceptions for this rule.
Hope this helps,

I'm a new iPad owner. When I've rented a movie, I can't work out how to play it back without a wifi connection. I get a message which says you cannot connect to the iTunes store without an Internet connection. This happens whether I've rented or purchased

I'm a new iPad owner. When I've rented a movie, I can't work out how to play it back without a wifi connection. I get a message which says you cannot connect to the iTunes store without an Internet connection. This happens whether I've rented or purchased a film. We're going on a flight soon and would ideally like to watch one on the plane. Can someone please provide some step by step instructions. Thanks.

Rented or purchased video are watched through the videos app after you have downloaded them, iTunes on iOS devices is for buying media only.

Playing purchased movies

Am I able to play purchased movies through the cloud as opposed to using all the space on my ipad?

With iOS 7 you should have a Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos option (under 'show all' heading) which you can set 'on' so that films and TV programmes that are in the cloud will show in the Videos app (films and/or TV programmes can't be redownloaded in all countries so they might not show in Videos, and if the rights-holders remove them from the store then they also won't show) - they will have a cloud icon on them. That will allow you to stream them, but you may also find that they take up space on your iPad whilst they are being streamed, in which case you should be able to then delete them from your iPad's storage via Settings > General > Usage > Videos

Cannot play purchased movies or music videos on ATV3 via AirPlay

Music, photos, and mirroring work fine. When I try to play purchased movies and music videos from iTunes, I get "Operation could not be completed -3". Everything is updated to the latest iOS. The router is a Belkin N450DB wireless on factory settings. This location also does not have internet, just the home wi-fi network. I have even plugged the ATV into the router via ethernet and still no video. I have tried and gotten the same results with iPhone 4s, iPad 3, PC laptop with iTunes with same Apple ID as ATV.
If it makes a difference, I setup, updated, and added my Apple ID to the ATV from a different location with internet, but moved it after I thought it had been set up. Thanks in advance for any tips, I am clueless!!

What extra equipment do I need to play purchased movies from itunes on my tv?

What extra equipment is needed to play itunes purchased movies to the tv?

A couple of options, but both assume you have a TV with an HDMI port:
Purchase a VGA Adapater and plug the iPad into the TV's HDMI port. $49 US, not inlcuding the HDMI cable
Purchase an AppleTV. A bit more expensive than the cables, but provides quite a bit more functionaility (including the ability to view purchased movies without the iPad). Runs $99 US. Also allows for using AirPlay
There are some third party devices (BlueRay players, for example) that support AirPlay, but probably more cost than you want to get into.

Cannot play purchased movie on external home projector - protection warning
I purchased a movie at the iTunes store on my Mac air laptop. Then I connected the Mac to my home projector and cannot play it due to a warning about protection.... YET I HAVE PURCHASED THE MOVIE TO WATCH ON MY HOME PROJECTOR THEATRE SYSTEM
This is not good - a rip off!!!!!!

Some displays cannot handle the HDCP bandwidth requirements. An example would be the older cinema display.
I had this problem. However when connected to a mormal HD TV via Apple TV3 plays fine
