Can't rent movies/tv shows on apple tv and iphone

I've just recently updated my apple id to my current email address.  All of my purchases show up with no issues.  However, now, I can't rent movies or tv shows from my Apple TV and my Iphone (I can purchase music on my Iphone with no issue).  I've even performed a restore on my Apple TV with no luck.  I can rent them with no problem on my MacBook Pro. I'll wait for the download to complete and AirPlay from my Iphone to my Apple TV.  Netflix, Home Sharing and all other services function just fine.  All devices are on the same WiFi network as well.  Even running the System Status report, everything's in the green.  I'm frustrated and lost on how to correct this issue.  All seem to work fine before updating my email address which has me thinking there was a glitch with that. Please help!!! 

I actually had to go to the Genius Bar to get this solved. They made some adjustment, reloaded iTunes, and then it worked.  Sorry, I can't tell you exactly what they did.

    If you mean transfer a slideshow from your computer then no. It is not storing it but rtaher streaming from the computer over your local network. The old model had an accessible hard-drive that would have allowed this.

  • Purchased and rented movies not showing upon Apple TV

    I can view either my purchased or rented movies on Apple TV. The only thing that shows up on the screen is a large white screen. Any ideas or suggestions?

    I assume you mean, "I can't view either my purchased or rented movies on Apple TV"
    The white screen indicates an authorisation issue, try restarting your tv and if that is unsuccessful, try de/re-authorising your itms account.

  • HT1415 Can a rented movie or show be watched on the ipad if there is no wifi?

  • Can I transfer movies/tv shows to apple tv for storage to free up HD space?

    Just wondering since my macbook pro is quickly becoming full. Any info would be appreciated, I haven't been able to find a solution.
    Thanks!

    short answer, no.
    the appletv is not a primary storage device, and as such it is designed to only have copies of your content, and not the only content.
    your master library is still itunes and as such itunes should always have all your content in it.
    if you are running out of space then i suggest some external storage.

  • HT2265 how to delete slide shows from apple tv and iPhone

    I have slide shows on my Apple TV. I want to delete this but not on my iphoto on my Mac. I want to delete photos on my iphone. How do I do this?

    To remove from Apple TV:
    iTunes > File > Home Sharing > Choose photos, uncheck what you don't want and apply.
    To remove from iPhone:
    Connect to iTunes, then select the device in the devices list, navigate to the photos tab and uncheck the photos you don't want, then sync/apply.

    Some movies and tv shows that I purchased on the apple tv will no longer play. The movies and tv shows were watched then removed from the apple tv and stored on my computer because of the settings I had on itunes. I put some of the movies back on the apple tv and now only one, Quantum of Solace HD, works. The other movies and the tv shows give a message apple tv not authorized to play. I can still buy and rent movies on both my atv and computer. There have been no problems with the music that I purchased on either the apple tv or computer. Also the movies and tv shows can still be played on the computer without a problem.
    Has anyone else had this problem with their atv? Is there any way to fix this problem?
    Yes. I 'm adding this to the many problems I have experienced since the 3.0/3.01 "upgrade", as I have discussed in several threads here. I purchased "Up" last night, and it plays fine on my Mac. However, the Apple TV gives me the "not authorized" message. I rebooted the ATV, disconnected the HDMI, deauthorized/reauthorized my Mac which is streaming my content to the ATV and rebooted. I am running 2.2 (factory restore after the 3.0/3.0.1 fiasco) on my ATV, and iTunes 9.0.2, Mac OS 10.5.8. No success. Quantum of Solace plays fine, but Good Luck Chuck does not. What a freaking nightmare. This is the first time in my LONG history of Apple products that I have even wavered in my support. I used to sell Mac 512s in the 80's, and love the platform, have used Macs ever since. Apple TV is really starting to wear me down. I sincerely hope we see an upgrade soon but I'm really near the end of rope.

    If you are positive it's not actually a 5G iPod Video, then you should be able to.

  • HT1657 cannot rent movie on itunes with apple tv

    cannot rent movie on itunes with apple tv it tells me to go to itunes store on my desktop and everything is upto date here

    Yes that's perfectly possible.
    The drawback is the rental needs to completely download before it will stream to the Apple TV.
    The advantages are it can then be watched on any Apple TV if you have more than one and can be watched as many times as you want (within the rental period) without needing to redownload it everytime.

  • HT1657 I live in switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language. Is there a way to change the language to the original language when renting?

    I live in Switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language...is there a way to change the language of the movie I rent from Itunes back to original language?

    Hi Zanaro,
    It is an Apple isuue same as when you want to buy or download from the iTunes store.
    I bought and registered (also credit card from Australia) mi iPhone 4s
    Now when I came to Switzerland I should have NOT used my Australian details but registered everything here in Switzerland with Swiss credit card and probably a swiss email account.
    My problem is opposite to yours, I can only download movies in English!!!!
    What Apple could have done at least is give an option on undertittles so at least some movies are understud. It is no problem for myself but when I have friends over that do not understand the language we have problems.
    I have had talks in Apple stores in Zuerich also in smaller Apple outlets, they all know about it as it is a common not problem but nuicance with Apples.
    I hope I could shed some light to your problems but I think we can only hope that Apple will change theyr attidude to this **** situation.

    Thanks

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.
