Can i watch tv shows previously purchased through itunes on an apple tv?

if so, do they stream every time i decide to watch an episode or are they stored locally?  each episode of LOST is ~1.3GB for example.
i also subscribe to itunes match.  not sure if this makes a difference.

Yes, but only in the US at this time. iTunes Match is for music.

  • HT2729 how can i watch a rented movie purchased through itunes and synced to my iphone 5 without watching it through itunes app?

    i have rented a couple of movies for my daughter to watch on the plane, but i cannot view them unless it's through the itunes app on my phone.  I cannot use any apps without service and i don't get any service in the air without wi-fi.  Is there another way i can watch them or have i missed or skipped a step in syncing the movies to my iphone from itunes???
    Somebody help me please
    Cheers

  • Is there some way I can access ALL my previous purchases through iTunes?

    I have recently purchased a new MacBook Pro and am looking to create an iTunes library listing all songs I have purchased through iTunes.
    Is there a way in iTunes for me to view ALL purchases I have previously made? So far I can only view purchases I have made via this new computer and I am unable to view the iTunes library on my old laptop, as I managed to break the screen, hence the reason for the purchase of this laptop.
    Hope someone can help...
    Thanks

    The purchase history only shows a listing of what you've purchased. You can only download an item from the iTunes Store once. For purchases you made in the past, you'll need to copy the item (track, video, movie, etc.) from your old laptop, or from your backups, to your new computer.
    Regards.

  • Can't finish Downloading rented movie purchased through iTunes on my iPad

    I rented two movies through iTunes that quit downloading part way through on march 1 and 2. If I go back to the rental area it says to watch and I hit it, it takes me to the video and says video is not downloaded go to your downloads and I have none showing!! How do I download now?  I also cannot find them on my iCloud :(((

    Yes, indeed there is.
    Ensure that airplay is not disabled on your Apple TV and that both devices are on the same network. Then when playing the movie on your iPad, select the airplay icon in the control bar, tap it, select the Apple TV from the contextual menu that appears. The movie should now stream to your Apple TV.

  • Can you watch a movie you rented from iTunes on your apple TV?

    I rented a movie from Itunes on my Mac. Can I watch it on my Apple TV somehow.  I am at home now and don't want to sit and look at my computer screen.
    Is there a way to stream it to the apple tv?

    Assuming home sharing is enabled, the rental will appear on your Apple TV once it has fully downloaded on your Mac.

  • HT4743 Whenever I try to watch the TV shows I purchased through iTunes (some on my laptop, some on AppleTV), I get the message "iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later". It's happened on every tv show I own, but the movies I have work perfectly.

    iTunes is available if I want to purchase something, but not to play TV shows? I've looked around and it seems like it's a somewhat regular problem? I'm just trying to figure out if this is going to be an ongoing problem. I just purchased AppleTV less than a week ago and everything is up to date.

    What ISP?
    What router?
    Who made it, what software?
    Is it just the iPad ( Anything else using wifi at your place having problems? ) ?
    Give us something to go on.

  • HT4009 wifi to watch a show i purchased in itunes?

    Is there a way i can watch my purchased episode without wifi? i dont quite understand why i need wifi if it has been downloaded to my video file already? 

    As long as the TV show has been fully downloaded (or synced) to the iPad's Videos app then you shouldn't need to be onlline in order to watch it - is that where you are trying to access it, or are you using the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app to try and watch it ?

  • How can I cancel a netflex account purchased through iTunes

  • Can't seem to find previous purchases in iTunes!

    Before I purchased the new iPhone 5s, I had over 250 songs in my iTunes library on my iPhone 5. When I used iCloud to transfer everything onto my new phone, I now only have 62 songs. These songs were the most recent ones I had downloaded. I've looked on iTunes under "Purchased" and that also says I have only purchased 62 songs. Shouldn't I be able to re-download purchased songs from since I created an Apple ID? I don't like to save music on my computer once it's on my phone and I delete it. But still, there should be some sort of History tab ?? Please Help!

    I have the computer authoirzed, so there is no reason I can find that I shouldn't be able to. Frustrating that a relativity simple issue can't be answered.

    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple recommends,  "You always back up your iTunes library in the event that a purchased item is no longer available on the iTunes Store," (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519).

  • HT1711 can i delete a movie from my computer that i've previously purchased in itunes and then download again when I want to watch it?

    Can i delete a movie from my computer that i've previously purchased in itunes and then download again when I want to watch it?  Seems like this would help me manage storage space.

    Yes, provided the movie is still in the iTunes Store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • Why can't i find a tv show I purchased on iTunes?

    I purchased Homeland Season 1 on iTunes in January.  Since then I have updated my Apple TV software (today) and now it no longer appears in my "Purchased" TV shows on the apple TV.  I can see the purchase history on my iTunes account on my Mac but cannot download any of the episodes and get an error message saying that i have not purchased them.  I have talked to 3 people at Applecare who could not really help me.  I rebooted the AppleTV as they suggested that did not work.  I contacted iTunes support via email who basically blew me off.  Any suggestions?

    Hello XXXX,
    Charles here from iTunes Store Support. I understand that your are missing content that your have previous purchased. I can certainly appreciate that you would like to resolve this situation as quickly as possible and I will be happy to assist you today.
    I am happy to say that you can download many of your previous iTunes Store purchases through iTunes in the Cloud. You may be able to download this particular purchase using this feature. You will need the latest version of iTunes. Installing the latest version of iTunes will not affect your library or any items in your account. It’s available on the Apple website:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    Tyler, please note that the Apple TV associated with your account is a 2nd generation model. This model does not have an internal hard drive and therefore must stream content.
    If you don't see what you want to download in the list, it may have been removed or modified since you purchased it and is no longer available. The iTunes Store is not responsible for the loss of purchases. We encourage customers to regularly back up their libraries to an external hard disk. If you lose your purchases, you can restore the items from your backups. This article explains how to back up your library:

    No idea, absent some idea of what exactly you were doing to "get a tv show ..... on my iPad".
    The procedures described in your User's Guide will work for most. Have you tried them?
