Can't transfer movie rentals from ITunes to Apple TV

I have rented a couple of movies through my Itunes account on my IMac. For some reason when I try and select these to move over to my Apple TV it says "You must be connected to the Intenet to transfer a rented movie" I am connected and am in fact in the process of syncing the other items in my Itunes with Apple TV. Its just the movie rentals its having issues with. any ideas??

Ensure that ports 80 and 443 are open to the WAN for all devices and aren't the subject of port forward or NAT rules. You might try reauthorising your itunes library as well.

  • Can't transfer movie rental from iMac to Apple TV 1st gen

    Hello guys, any ideas here...?
    I have rented a movie in my iMac and can't get it transfered or streamed to my Apple TV 1st generation.
    When I open iTunes I can see the "rented movies" tab under "movies" and the movie is there. I hit the "move" command the movie moves to "on Apple TV" but when I hit the sync command it goes back and just dosn't sync.
    I have also tried to connect my library to stream the movie but when I open my shard movies in the Apple TV the rented movie will not appear on the list.
    Tks in advance!

  • Transferring Movie Rentals from iTunes to Apple TV

    I bought Apple TV (40gb) yesterday and have tried to transfer 3 rented movies over to it from my iTunes but everytime I try to copy them over i get an error! It says that Apple TV could not connect to the iTunes Store even though it is connected as I have downloaded two films from it already.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Have you checked to see if itms is actually available for the tv, sometimes I get a similar message but a while later all is well. if you are sure the store is available, I think perhaps sometimes the messages thrown up by the tv can be a little misleading, it may well be that there is another issue which is causing this message. Are you able to stream from your itunes library, have you tried reauthorising your account.

    No. Once downloaded to an iOS device it cannot be transferred to another iOS device or computer, & can only be watched on that iOS device.

    File -> Transfer Purchases from "My iPhone" - succeeds.
    Right-click My iPhone -> Transfer Purchases - succeeds.

    Power cycled phone - made no differenced.  Ejected, reconnected,..no difference.

  • HT1414 how can i transfer my apps from itunes of my computer to my iphone 3gs??

    how can i transfer my apps from itunes of my computer to my iphone 3gs??

    Which apps? The iPhone apps you have selected/purchased on the iPhone App Store thru iTunes?
    Or the apps installed on the Mac?
    For the first case, simply connect the phone, start up iTunes if it doesn't do so on its own accord, click on your phone's entry on the list in the left column, select the Summary tab to make sure all is well, then click on the Sync button on the bottom edge of the screen. If you want, you can click on the Apps tab and arrange your applications how you like them prior to the sync, too.
    If the second case, no can do. iPhone apps run on iPhones, Mac apps run on Macs.

  • HT1577 Why am I experiencing long download times for an HD movie rental from itunes?

    I have been experiencing long download times for movie rentals from itunes (this time 11 hours).  I have even tried to use ethernet, turn off simultaneous downloads, and shut down my browser, to speed up the time but that didn't help.  My internet download speed is about 7mbps.  Any suggestions?

    iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
    When you purchase an HD video on a supported device or computer, only HD video will be downloaded. To download the SD version, you need to download the video again from your Purchased page. Conversely, if you purchase an HD video on an unsupported device, the SD version will be downloaded. Then, you will need to download the HD version from your Purchased page.

    If you rented it on a computer, use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes.
