Can't transfer movies from iTunes to ATV.

I can download movies to my Pro and I can download movies to my ATV. But I can't move rented movies from the iTunes library on the Pro to the Apple TV.
When I hit the Sync button I get this error;
"Live Free or Die Hard" was not copied to the Apple TV because you are not authorized to play it on this computer"
and it automatically sends it back to the library side.
All my photos and home movies have sync'd up fine from iTunes to the ATV but rented movies will not transfer.
What am I missing?
Thanks.

Choose Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes or play a purchased song, supply your account information, and sync the Apple TV.

  • Can't transfer movie from itunes library onto ipod

    I recently downloaded a movie from itunes onto my laptop. When I tried to manually drag the movie from the library to my ipod i got the following message" The ipod is currently linked to another itunes library. In order to copy the movie to this ipod, you must link this ipod with this itunes library. Doing this will remove 24 tv shows from this ipod. How can I get the movie onto my ipod without erasing the tv shows?

    Make sure "Manually manage Music and videos" box is checked under Summary tab.
    If the box is already checked and you are still not able to drag it over, highlight the video in movie library and go to iTunes menu ADVANCED and select "Create iPod or iPhone version".  Drag the newly created version over.

  • How can I transfer movies from the apple tv to the ituenes, to watch in the ipad?

    how can I transfer movies from the apple tv to the ituenes, to watch in the ipad?

    Is this a rental or a purchase?
    Rentals on ATV cannot be transferred.
    The 2nd and 3rd gen model do not have accessible storage. Some movie purchases are stored in iCloud (if you live in the US) where you can reload in iTunes on your computer)
    If you own the 1st gen aluminum model then it should be set to sync

  • Cant transfer movies from itunes to ipad

    cant transfer movies from itunes to ipad

    Maybe the movies aren't compatible. are they movies that you got from iTunes? If so, they should go on unless the software of your computer and your iPad are different... Agreed, more info would be helpful/necessary.

  • How transfer movies from itunes to apple tv but not from aTV to itunes

    I want to transfer the movies and tv shows that I have in iTunes to my Apple TV but I dont want the content of my apple tv to be transfered to itunes, I dont have enough space in my macbook. I tried to sync them but it automatically copies the content of apple tv to itunes and when I cancel the sync it threatens me to erase the content of my apple tv. I took the risk and disconnected itunes from my apple tv, nothing purchased on apple tv was erased but the movies that miraculously were able to be copied from itunes to atv were erased from atv (i still have them on itunes). I still want to transfer those movies to my apple tv, but whenever I do that apple tv keeps syncing with itunes and sends everything to my macbook. I just want to free space of my macbook without erasing anything from apple tv.

    It's the way it works.
    the iTunes library is supposed to be 'in sync' with AppleTV, so anything bought on AppleTv copies to iTunes to keep things in sync.
    If you delete from iTunes it'll delete from appletv too.
    There's no manual way to get stuff off appletv so you must make a backup of the files transferred to itunes.
    If you then delete the files from their folder direct (right click on a file in itunes and open it's location) but DON'T delete the entry in itunes, you'll free space up on the laptop. You must make a copy first onto say a DVD or external drive unless you're happy for things just to be on appletv and to lose the if it fails/breaks. Remember you cannot manually access the files in appletv to do a file transfer.
