Can I stream itunes movies

I don't have enough memory to download it :(

It will need to be downloaded for you to be able to watch it - your current free space is shown in Settings > General > About > Available, and the film's size should be on its description page in the store

i have a windows based pc and on iTunes i have downloaded some movies. i have an apple tv set up under a different account. how can i stream the movies from my pc to someone else's apple tv?

If you wish to use home sharing then you need to setup the Apple TV under your ID.

I have a 3rd party hard drive with movies on it ,it is connected to my airport extreme. The AE is connected to my tv via ethernet cable. Can I stream my movies to the Tv ?

Not without a player..
The AE is a dumb file server.. the hard disk you plug in is an even dumber hard disk.
There are no smarts in this setup.. not even DLNA. So the TV would have to be an extremely smart one to read raw files on a network drive.. none do that I know of.
A solution is WD live TV.. it can read files from just about any file source on network and play them to the TV.
Nothing apple makes will do that.. ATV is a streamer not a media player. Everything in the Apple world is tied up with itunes. So you must have a computer running itunes to use it.
You can download a more generic player for ipad, and put that as part of the network.. but you still need ATV to display the video.

I can't play iTunes Movies in 5.1 surround on my surround sound system

I like to download iTunes movies to my MacMini from iTunes store. Recently I gave up doing so because I can't play iTunes movies in 5.1 surround on my surround system. My MacMini is connected to my Marantz 6007 SR via HDMI cable. However I can get DTS or 5.1 surround sound from my system with other players such as VLC player.
How can I fix this problem as I really want to buy or rent movies from iTunes store?

Hi komansava,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your Mac Mini is able to output 5.1 audio to your surround sound receiver, but iTunes purchases do not play in surround sound.
When playing iTunes purchases, first see if iTunes is set to output the movie you're playing in surround sound:
Set up iTunes to play content in surround sound
Movies you purchased or rented from the iTunes Store may have stereo audio and digital surround sound tracks. ...
In iTunes, click the Speech Bubble icon to view your audio choices, such as English (Surround). If the surround sound choice is dimmed or the icon doesn't appear, make sure you are using the appropriate hardware and that the content is encoded with digital surround sound.
You can find this information here:
Set up iTunes and your DVD Player for digital surround sound - Apple Support
Best Regards,

How can I stream iTunes Radio in my business?

How can I stream iTunes Radio in my business?

You can't stream from the Apple TV to multiple speakers, however you can do that from iTunes on a computer. You will need AirPlay enabled speakers or speakers that are connected to an airplay enabled device such as an airport express.

I want to stream itunes movies I've bought on my ipad air to my lg smart tv. From the 'Home' screen of the lg, there is no itunes app shown that would somehow let me share info with my ipad air. Has anyone the answer. Am I missing something here?

I have an lg smart TV. I also just bought an apple ipad air,Wi-Fi Cellular 16GM I've signed up the air to itunes and just purchased a movie on the ipad air. I was able to stream the movie on my air and my pc, which is of course wirelessly connected to my smart TV. I've searched the 'Home' screen of the lg to find a way to also stream that movie on the lg. Am I somehow just not reading right and missing the point, or is what I'm trying to do not possible?

I have raised this issue with apple support this week too after my Facetime and iMessage stopped working on Saturday.
Been very interesting to read the ever increasing number of comments and issues being raised on this one (more than 500 views and dozens of replies so far).
My post is here:
imessage and Facetime sign in activation error iPad ios8.1.2
What is especially interesting about your post is that you had your iPad Air replaced in November 2014 in the UK. I bought my iPad Air originally in October 2014, and had to have it replaced in an Apple Store in Bristol in November after the original stopped charging. This does make me wonder if there is a batch of faulty iPads? Mmm...
I have raised a fully escalated support case with Apple on this, and their latest response is that a 'patch' or fix is being investigated by their engineers and to wait a week or so at which point they might be releasing it to affected users - or even across every users.
I wish there was a way to get this to Apple's attention and the wider media as well, but I don't know how best to do that.
I guess the best thing we can do is keep hassling Apple for a response and raising support cases

Macbook i7 to ATV - Airplay BOGGS and won't stream iTunes movies

I have a 2012 i7 Macbook 13 inch, and a 2012 (3rd Gen?) (it's brand new) 1080/WIFI/HDMI Apple TV. I have set up the ATV and updated all of the software. It is connected to my WIFI, which is fast and stable. then:
-I started home sharing on my ATV/Itunes. My movies AND music show up on the ATV in the "Computer" section. I can select both movies and music, and all the media information comes up on the ATV.
-When I play music on ATV, the MUSIC loads and plays VERY SLOW and CHOPPY.
-When I play MOVIES on the ATV thru Itunes, they usually do NOT even load. The ATV tries to load the movies, but the spinning wheel (of death) is usually all I see. Sometimes, a movie will look like it is going to load, and play, but the it just sits on one frame of the movie. That is as far as it goes. The movie freezes but ironically neither the ATV or MACbook are freezing.
-AIRPLAY will mirror my desktop onto the TV, but that is as far as it will go also. The mouse will not even move on the TV. It basically just shows a frozen display of the screen
-I was using Moutain Lion when i first tried to get this to work, but i have since updated to Maverick, hoping that would fix things. It hasn't. NOTHING has changed. My iTunes is up to date. ATV software is up to date.
-It seems like this would be a problem with the network or the internet, except here is the strange thing:
-I can use my i7 HP PC to stream movies/music thru iTunes FLAWLESSLY. The movies and music inside of iTunes on the HP stream PERFECTLY thru the ATV.
This is really FRUSTRATING. I went out and got this new Macbook, and decided to use all MAC, since I love my iPhone and iPad.. and everyone always tells me how much better the OS on Macs are.. well, I'm not too impressed right now. I would expect ALOT more plug and play. I am very good with computers, albeit mainly PCs, but this should be alot easier to work. I really hope I am doing something really stupid, and someone knows a quick fix. I have searched the forums and don't see anything that was resolved from similar hardware situations. I don't get it.. Totally stuck... Could really use some help.. Trying to be a converted believer in the ways of MAC, so far, not going so good. It's been a serious headache.
Wondering why I even bought ATV right about now? I could have easily just plugged my HDMI cord into EITHER MAC/PC laptop, and accessed ALL the same things.. no remote I guess... but so far it's totally not worth the headache. PLEASE HELP

OK! I figured something out.. I got my MAC to start streaming movies and music finally!!!! It turns out that I need to shut off the WIFI on the PC that I am also homesharing thru iTunes on. I set both the PC and MACBOOK to homeshare their respective iTUNES, and they both simutaneously show up on the ATV. BUT... if I have them both running WIFI at the same time, while both signed into homeshare in iTunes, only the PC's streaming works correctly. (see above post for more detail of FAILURE) SO WEIRD. The MAC shows up stil on the ATV, but BOGGS down or fails to load files completely. As soon as I turn off WIFI on the PC, Mac streams perfectly thru the COMPUTER folder on the ATV..
SO..
Can ANYONE please tell me how to use both PC and MAC on the ATV without shutting off one or the other? Or is that not possible? I guess it doesn't really matter, since I can only stream one thing at a time to the ATV . I like to keep both computer's WIFI running at the same time (downloading files in background), but I guess I can just shut off home sharing on the PC when I am using the MAC, and vice versa. Glad to know they both work thru the ATV. Haven't tried to use the mirrored display on the MAC yet.. gonna stick to watching movies thru the ATV's computer folder with my iTunes movie playlist for now. No need to frustrate myself anymore. Just gonna enjoy some technology for a minute.
I guess I have answered my own question.
Pretty surprised I didn't get even one response in 24 hours to my original post. This is my first time using any forum for TECH support.
I thought this post made sense, but maybe it's a bunch of jibberish. Or maybe people saw the word "PC" and didn't want anything to do with this post.
Truth is, the iTunes on my PC worked flawlessly with my ATV, right out the box, whereas the MAC was a little work to get going. Also, it (MACBOOK) loads content slower than the PC on the ATV. They are both i7 processors with 8 gigs of ram. I still have yet to find something on this MAC that I can't do just as easily on a PC for a third the cost. I love the way the Apple stuff looks, and there are some cool things that MAC has gotten right (love the trackpad).. I love my iPhone, iPad, and now my ATV.. but my PC is still givin this MACBOOK a run for it's money. Just sayin.
Hopefully this post can help someone if they are in a similar position: in a household that uses both MAC/PC and shares one Apple TV. Like I said, this seems to be working now. Fingers crossed. If anything changes I will be sure to talk about it.

Can i stream hd movies on time capsule to my ipad or TV

would appreciate if anyone can help

TC is a dumb as a board hard disk in a router.. it has no media servers.. it holds files.. barely.
To stream a movie you have to use a player.. either a hardware player or software on computer.
There are plenty of players available for the ipad.. just google it. I cannot tell you specifics as I am a NON-IPADer.
If your TV is like most it cannot play files direct from a source store.. it plays DLNA streams.. so TC is useless. As stated, there is no media servers in it.. so you have to get a something else.. a hacked ATV or something like WD TV Live can play files.. a standard ATV can only play itunes.

Can you stream iTunes library from Time Capsule to a MacBook if you're connected to the internet anywhere in the world?

I want to buy a MacBook Air but the flash storage means not enough space for all my movies and music. Instead of carrying around an extra harddrive, I'd rather make the Time Capsule my external harddrive. Most of the time when I access it it will be from my house, but say I'm just out and about and connected to the internet...assuming my Time Capsule is on, can I use it as basically a cloud device and stream my iTunes movies and music to my computer?

Probably not unless you have a super speed internet connection.. most people on adsl have 1mbit upload connection or less. you cannot stream movies over 1mbit.. I doubt you can even stream music. Actual throughput is only 800kbit/s...
That is why you store things in the cloud.. you download speed from cloud is much high than upload to it.
That is unless you have a super high speed, fibre connection to your home??
It is certainly possible.. if you have enough bandwidth.. 99.999% of people don't.

Can I stream a movie from my Macbook to my Apple TV on one display, and still use my Macbook for other things?

I have a Macbook Pro and an Apple TV. What I'd like to do is stream a movie from my CinemaNow Account to my television by using my Apple TV and my Macbook. I know that I can do this my using the mirroring feature, however then I can no longer use my Macbook for anything else because my TV will only display what is on the screen of my Macbook. Now with this is mind, what then is the point of having multiple displays through the use of my Apple TV, if only one display can be used at a time unless they both show the same image? Or is there a way for me to be able to stream the movie to my TV and still use my Macbook for other purposes (multi-tasking)?

To enable a second display over AirPlay, you first need to be connected to the same network as your Apple TV. Next, open System Preferences > Displays, and select your Apple TV from the “AirPlay Display” drop-down menu.
Once you do this, your display may flash as the second display connection is acquired, and the Apple TV takes over as the second display. If the displays are mirrored, then you can correct this by opening the “Arrangement” tab in System Preferences > Displays, and ensuring that the “Mirror Displays” checkbox is unchecked.
In this same “Arrangement” tab, you can move the displays around in the pane to ensure that they're positioned correctly, relative to your physical space (usually side-by-side, or top-down). The primary display here is denoted here by the Menu bar on the display. The arrangement helps with being able to drag windows from one display to the next: if your secondary display is arranged to be to the right of your primary one, for example, you can drag things to it through the right side of your primarcy screen.

Can't access iTunes movies extras on 3.0

Maybe I'm just missing something, but I can't seem to find out how to access iTunes movie extras in 3.0. It's supposed to be there, but the one movie I have with it doesn't give me any noticeable option to access them.
What am I missing here?

simply offering advice. at no point did i say it would fix the issue.
if you had specifically said you had already tried the obvious stuff then i wouldn't have suggested it.

HT1848 How can I save iTunes movies on an external HD?

I'm trying to transfer my iTunes movie library from my iPad2 to my external HD, because my PC's internal SSD doesn't have enough memory to hold all the movies. Any ideas?

Easy to do. First, tell iTunes where to store the movies on your computer by going to iTunes/preferences. In that wiindow, click the advanced tab and under iTunes media folder loaction, browse to the external drive where you want the movies stored. You can create a folder or iTunes will make one for you called Itunes.
I have keep iTunes media folder checked as well as copy files to iTunes media folder checked. This will copy all purchase to the drive and organize movies and TV shows into their own folders by show and season #.
Then sync your iPad and in iTunes on your computer, click File/Transfer purchases and iTunes will do t he rest.

Can't delete iTune Movies from my hard drive

Hi,
I wondered if anyone could help...
I maxed out my hard drive with iTune Movies and music, and have been trying to transfer to an external hard drive which is fine, but... I can't delete them from my laptop's hard drive (Vista on Sony Vaio). I don't have the same problems with the music at all, just the movies.
I'm running out of space, help!
Thanks
A

OK, so that tells us it's the operating system permissions for your account.
In WE, go to the top-level music folder.
Right-click > Properties and go to the Security tab.
Give your windows userID *full control* and ownership of that music folder and make sure to apply those settings to all child/subfolders.
This web page has some Windows 7 screenshots - I think they look the same for Vista.
