Cannot transfer rented movie to iPod.

Error message says already transferred to another device (not true!). This used to work very well and then stopped. Have not changed computer or iPod.

I should've been connected to the internet. I was on wireless, but thought I had a good connection. My internet browser was working.
I have transferred rental movies without a problem before, so not sure.
Thanks for helping!

Can't transfer rented movies to ipod

i just rented a movie for the first time and it won't transfer over to my ipod. i try to drag it over but i get the circle/slash symbol. any ideas? i looked at the guide but there weren't any answers.

What kind of iPod do you have? Rental Movies will only play on the iPod Classic (not the 5th Generation iPod), the iPod Touch, the iPod Nano with video and the iPhone:

Unable to Transfer Rented Movies to iPod Touch (error 5103)

I just rented a movie to test it out on my iPod Touch. Problem is when I go to sync my iPod it wont transfer to my iPod. It will start the transfer and almost finish then I get this error message...

Any known reasons why I may be getting this error? I've tried many times. I have a fully updated Touch and iTunes.

I have tried the method of authorizing my computer and then initiating transfer purchases method yet my purchases were not transfered. I was told Apple can put your purchases in a certain place for you to retrieve them in your I-tunes account.
Is there any way you can help me with this problem?

I cannot transfer rented movies between devices in iTunes

I rented a movie. Dropped it into a new iPod nano. Transferred fine. Wanted to move it to apple tv or another capable video ipod. No luck. Any ideas?

It's not entirely clear to me what you're doing. As far as I understand, you need to move the rental movie from one device to another by going to the Movie tab for the device, going to the rental movie section, highlighting the rental movie and pressing the Move button. Also, the rental movie can only be on one device at a time. So, if it's on your Nano, it can't be on the computer or ATV.

Transfer Rented Movies from Apple TV V2 to Computer?!?!

I rented some movies on my Apple TV. Can I transfer them to my Mac that the Apple TV is synced with? I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this. I know that I can transfer rented movies from the Mac to the Apple TV, but the other way???
Please someone let me know.

If you think you might need to watch your movie on anything other then Apple TV, rent it form iTunes on your computer. Once it is on your computer you can move it to an iPod, iPhone, and even Apple TV 2.0.
Under this system the only thing you can't do is have an HD rented movie on your computer. iPods and iPhones can't play that anyway. Yes, I think media giants sleep safer when HD movies are not on peoples "corruptible" computers and safe and sound on an "appliance".
The only way to make this any easier would be to allow SD rentals to transfer back to a computer but not HD. I think that would just add another layer of confusion.

Can I transfer rented movies from one computer to another?

I am posting this message as every time I try to transfer rented movies from my PowerBook to my iPod get the following message.
Attempting to copy to the disk "Michael Graham's iPod" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.
I have gotten this message with an iPod Classic, as well as an iPod Touch, so don't think it is the iPod, but can not be sure of that. Also have posted a message about this in past, but none of the suggestions seemed to help. In addition Apple seems to be no help. In any event if I use my dad's Mac Mini to transfer the rented movie I do not get this message. In any event I just wonder if their is any way to transfer rented movies from one my laptop to his desktop, so I then came transfer to my iPod Touch.
Thanks in advance
Michael

Transfer rented movie to iTunes

If I try to update my iPad to IOS 5.0.1 I get a warning that I should transfer rented movies to my iTunes library - but how? I have one rented movie, but that doesn't appear in my list of movies.

If the film was rented and downloaded directly on the iPad, then from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.

Cannot Sync Rented Movies to Apple TV

I cannot sync rented movies to my Apple TV. I contacted Apple Support and they told me to update my Apple TV software (done), update my iTunes software (done) and reauthorize my computer (done). But it still won't work. It gives me the option to "move" the movie and it starts the syncing process but never finishes the process and never gives any type of error message as to why it does not complete the move. It just moves the movie back to the other side of the "move" screen. I have no problem syncing tv shows to my Apple TV. The Apple rep's response was that he recommended that I not purchase anymore rental movies. Isn't there something else I could try to fix it? Has anyone else encountered this? Thank you very much.

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT purchase rental movies in I-Tunes if you want to watch them on Apple TV. I rented "Batman Begins" in I-Tunes and Apple TV says it is "not authorized" to play it. I rented the "Darjeeling Trials", and Apple TV played the first few minutes - but when I paused it and came back to it, it said "this movie has expired" and even deleted the rental from I-Tunes for me - niiiice.
My Apple TV is brand new, latest model, 160GB, latest latest software (downloaded today) and I also have the latest lates (7.1.1) I-Tunes software. IF you download thru I-Tunes, RENTALS DO NOT WORK with this software.
Download direct to Apple TV instead (at least that works... )

I cannot view rented movies (purchased through itunes) on my iPad2 in-flight

I cannot view rented movies (purchased through itunes) with the Video app on my iPad2 while flying. On a hunch, I purchased in-flight wifi and only then could I watch my rentals. What gives? Any suggestions on how to avoid paying for in-flight wifi is appreciated.

I don't think that he waited a day. From the wording, I concluded that he waited only minutes (during take-off).
I recall seeing this issue before. Apparently there is an issue related to copyright protection with some movies. I stopped flying when I retired so I didn't pay too much attention to the problem. Perhaps a search of the forum will shed more light.

HT1657 Why can't I transfer rented movies from my iPad to my Mac?

Why can't I transfer rented movies from my iPad to my Mac? This is absolutely senseless and annoying! I rented the movie and should be able to watch it wherever I decide to!! A bit more concern for your clients, please...

Can't transfer rented movies to 2Gen Ipod Touch

I recently recently rented two SD movies from the Itunes store. When I tried to transfer them from my itunes to my Ipod Touch (2GEN) I got an error that says they were not copied because the video format is not supported by my Ipod. I have rented and watched movies before however that was like 5 years ago. Is my Ipod too old to support current Itunes rented movies. Is so, can I get my money back for my rentals?

Are you sure they were SD? This says your iPod supports SD
