Cannot import Movie from iTunes on MacBook to iMac. Error says computer not

When I try to import the movie from the shared folder on my laptop to the desktop I get an error message that says this computer is not authorized. All of my computers have been authorized.

If you purchased and not rented, it should let you stream this to your TV?
You can't defeat the DRM protection from TV or movie purchases from iTunes.
There are two things you can try though if you purchased and not rented.
If, you have a computer with up to date version of iTunes on it, Delete the movie from your iPad and try downloading it from iTunes on your computer.
From there you have two options. One is to connect the iPad to your computer and sync it to the iPad, the try playing the movie from your iPad connected to your TV.
The other option is to leave the movie on iTunes on your computer. In iTunes main menu bar under Advanced, turn on Home Sharing. On your iPad activate iTunes Home Sharing, by going into the settings app, locate the video app settings menu on the left pane, then under Home Sharing, type in your Apple ID and password to activate this feature on the iPad.
Go to the video app, itself. You should see a Sharing tab pop-up. Tap this and an icon representing your iTunes library on your computer should appear. Tap this. Let it load. Under the movies tab, search for your downloaded movie, tap the movie and tap the play button to begin streaming the movie from your computer to your iPad connected to your TV.
If this is a rental, you can only view and play the movie from one device at a time. If rented, it may not let you view the movie from other than the iPad or iTunes on the computer or AppleTV.
If delete this from the iPad, download the rental movie to iTunes on your computer and follow my procedure for sharing your iTunes library, you maybe able to stream this from your computer to the iPad to your TV in that manner.

  • Remove imported movies from itunes

    How does one remove imported movies from itunes?

    You can't put films into the cloud, whether they will show for redownloading (e.g. via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage) depends upon what country that you are in (they can't be redownloaded in all countries), whether you've changed countries since buying them (they won't show if you have), and if the rights-holder keeps them in your country's store (any item could be removed from the store at any time) - rather than relying on being able to redownload them you should copy them (and the reset of your iTunes library) to a backup drive (preferably drives) so that you have your own copy. By default your iTunes library is stored under : /Users/username/Music/iTunes
    You can delete them from your library by selecting them and pressing the delete key on your keyboard.

  • Cannot stream movies from itunes to apple tv 1st generation

    Hi,
    I have an apple tv 1st generation and whenever I'm renting movies I would like to play them via streaming on my TV. Unfortunately I have to wait until it's fully downloaded and then I have to transfer them to the Apple tv.
    Can someone tell me if there is a way to be able to stream rented movies from Itunes to the apple TV without having to wait until it's fully downloaded?
    I'm using a macbook pro with mac OS X 10.6.8.
    Any help would be so much appreciated.
    Thank you.

    If you rent via your Mac then you have to wait until it's full loaded. If you would like to stream then rent directly on the Apple TV

  • How can I import movies from iTunes to iMovie?

    I download video lectures from iTunes University to iTunes 10 and need to export them to iMovie 11 for editing. How can I do this?

    I can't figure out how to import from iTunes into iMovie. I can select and view all movies in iTunes, but don't see any options for moving them to iMovie. Any suggestions?
    Open iMovie '08, select the "Import Movies..." File menu option, navigate to where the movie is located on your hard drive and import it in the "Copy" mode. Alternatively, navigate to the file in the finder and "drop import" the file directly to a convenient named "event" in the open iMovie '08 application or "event" folder if the iMovie '08 application is not open.

  • Why I cannot import movies from my camera to iMovie?

    I have an iMac with Mac OS X 10.7.5 and I'm trying to download some movies from my Canon PowerShot SX210IS. To download movies I am using iMovie 09 Version 8.06.
    When I click on the "Open Camera Import Window" it only shows one alternative as shown below.
    It shows "Built-in iSight" and there is no other alternative to select my camera ...
    How can I make iMovie to show my camera in the down arrow so I can select it and download my movies?
    Your advise and recommendation will be appreciated very much.

    Hello AppleMan1958:
    Thanks a lot for your answer, but this is exactly what I am doing and what it does is showing my own picture from the camcorder in my computer. I don't have any alternatives to directly import my movies from my camera.
    I have received answer from Klondike Kid and gave me the possible cause of my problems. iMovie does not recognize digital still cameras as "movie" cameras. I will have to use an external USB card reader in order to import directly from iMovie.
    Again, thanks a lot for your answer.

  • Cannot purchase movies from itunes Canada

    How come I am unable to purchase movies from the Canadian Itunes Store?

    Until the movie studios & other copyright holders of movie content authorize Apple to release this content outside of the US, there's nothing Apple can do. When Steve Jobs announced the availibility of movies a couple of weeks ago, I believe he stated that movies would probably be available outside the US sometine in 2007. He gave no other time frame.

  • Cannot import .MOV files with Premiere Elements 12: generic error. Using Windows 8.1 (64b)

    This question was already on the forum for older version of Premiere and Windows. I'm making my videos (.MOV format) with the digital camera Casio EX-ZR400.
    I have no any problems with Photoshop Elements 12 for pictures produced by this camera.

    Dngineer
    What is the source of your .mov file..(brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the video)......what is the video and audio compression and frame rate?
    Are you working with the 12.1 Update of 12? If not, please do so using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. Both QuickTime and Premiere Elements need to be run from a User Account with Administrative Privileges. Are you doing that?
    Narrowing things down
    Are all files with the .mov file extensions the only video files that you cannot import into the program? Any exceptions?
    When you open Premiere Elements 12/12.1 to the Expert workspace and go to Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime, does that choice have its presets?
    Let us start here and decide what next based on your reply.
    Thank you.

  • How do I restore my iPad from iTunes if I get an error message stating not enough storage after updating to iOS 7

    How do I restore my iPad 2 after backing it up and updating to the current iTunes and now getting an error message staying I can't restore due to lack of storage now on my iPad?

    Try to offload photos you don't need on your iPad, delete apps that don't get used often. Videos that you have already wathced, books you have already read. Clear up enough space to do the update, Then add content back as you need it.

  • Have rented a movie from iTunes but keep getting an error message cannot load film

    I have downloaded a rental movie to my iPad started to watch it and it gave me an error of cannot load film, have tried deleting the film from my videos but cannot do that either, when I go back I to iTunes to start the process again it immediately tries to play the film but the same message come up. Any ideas?

    Sounds like you might need to take it to an Apple Store but if it is an iPhone 3G it would no longer be under warranty.
    Looking at the Apple Store online you can get an iPhone 3GS from $49 on AT&T if it comes to having to get a new one. Your other option is second hand.

    Hi Pol.
    There are 2 good and easy programs you can use.
    HandBrake is FREE :-
    http://handbrake.m0k.org/download.php
    ffmpegx is SHAREWARE - the makers will allow you to download it and test it Free of Charge, but if you like it and would like to use it a lot they request that you Register it for about $15.

    Of the 2, ffmpegx will give better results - but try them both and decide for yourself.

  • My project has lost the audio track. I imported tracks from iTunes, they are in the project but do not play, please help?

    Hi...my movie project has lost the audio track. I can see it but nothing plays.
    The movie record has its audio but the imported iTunes track is silent.

    This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.
