Downloaded rental movie to Itunes on desktop pc. How do I transfer that rental to empty Itunes library on Notebook PC which is hooked up to my TV so I can view the movie?

I purchased an Itunes movie rental which downloaded to the Itunes library on my desktop PC.
However, as the desktop PC is too far away from my TV, I have cabled my Netbook PC to the TV. I installed Itunes on the Netbook, have logged into my Itunes account using my regular Itunes ID & Password. I thought my entire library would transfer over to the Notebook being it is one of my "authorized" computers. However, the Notebook Itunes library is empty.
How do I watch the purchased download on the TV? Is there a way to transfer the download from desktop Itunes to Notebook Itunes library?
Thank you.

HI and welcome...
The rental movie has to be synced from iTunes.
Launch iTunes. Select Movies on the left under Library. Drag the movie from your Desktop to the iTunes window.
Connect your iPad. Select the iPad under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Select the Movies tab, select: Sync Movies then click the Sync button bottom right corner of the iTunes window.

I purchased movies through iTunes and downloaded them to my PC as well as synced my entire library (including 'all films') to my iPad. However, I cannot seem to find / view the movies on my iPad unless 'Home Sharing' is on?

No. Homeshare let's you view your iTunes library or others on your network.
Movies should be in the video app on the home screen. If they are not there, then make sure when your iPad is plugged into iTunes on your computer...the video tab is checked to sync what you want..make sure you hit apply after. You should see the movies transferring to your iPad in the status bar on the top of iTunes.

When I try to rent a movie from Apple TV, I'm told it will be 3 hrs. before I can view it. I hit return on the menu button; attempt to Play; then told it will be 5 hrs. before I can view the movie. What's up with that?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I'm not sure if you are referring to how long it's taking or why it varies.
The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.
If your internet speed varies, the time will be recaculated from time to time.

Is there a way to sync past messages from my old iPhone to my iPhone 5 ? I'm aware of the iTunes backup syncing but how would I transfer that between two devices ?

Restore from old iPhone backup can past all data including messages to your new iPhone. Or you can resfer to this iPhone 4/4S SMS to iPhone 5 transfer tutorial. It shows you how to transfer messages only.

I have music on my macbook desktop and I want to transfer that music to my iTunes

On what Mac, running what versions of OS X and iTunes?

No one can view the movie i made

I made a movie in quicktime and put in on a .mac webpage. I emailed the link to myself, opened it, and had no problem viewing it, but others cannot view it - a blank white screen comes up in the area where there should be the loaded video!
imac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Thank you all for your help, but maybe i should just start over because I am a total novice and not sure how to backtrack.
I have created a movie from videoclips using imovie. I would like to share the movie using .mac hopepage and/or by emailing a file. obviously the imovie file that has been created needs to be transferred or encoded into another format so that others can view it. Since I can play it through quicktime, how do I make this file viewable to others - both mac and pc users?
i am now trying to export it to another format "quicktime movie", but it has already taken an hour and it's only 1/3 way done. the clip is only 4 minutes long - this seems odd to me.
thanks again.

When I click on any of my movie or TV shows in Itunes I immediately get an error message that says Itunes has stopped working and closes the program. I can sync the movies and shows to my phone okay but I can't watch on Itunes. Can anyone help?

Let's try the following user tip with that one:

Try de/re authorising your computer.

When I try to play an itunes purchased movie it says I have to authorize this computer. When I put in my log in information it says this computer is already authorized and will still not play the move. I have tried to deauthorize and reauthorize this computer, delete and reinstall itunes and Quicktime and nothing works; the purchased movies still will not play

I'm having the same problem on my new iMac. First it tells me it's not authorized to play the songs, then when I enter my password, it tells me it's already authorized, but still won't play them. I tried deleting a song and going to the store to redownload it and got charged for it! I've got hundreds of songs, so that's not going to be an option.
In addition, I have quite a few songs from a very old Apple ID, one I forgot I even had, I have no idea what the password was and no way to have the system send me a new password because I no longer have access to that email account.
The Mac I just "retired" could play all the songs in my catalog just fine. This new one won't play the majority of them.
Help!

So what is meant here is spend more money - wrong answer.
For that reason most people prefer to buy movies on DVD. They are easily shared, foolproof, and super easy to use. I love Apple TV and iTunes for music and TV shows, but I would never purchase a movie that was not on an optical disc.
When I head out-of-town I can grab a couple of DVDs to watch on my new MacBook Pro during the flight. Easy and uncomplicated.
DVDs offer another advantage. You can watch your movie without depending upon a complicated and delicate infrastructure. Also, movies are frequently censored for political correctness (Star Wars is a recent example). Despite public pressure for a release, the Disney movie “Song of the South” remains banned. Even cartoons like Johnny Quest are now censored. Only people who purchased physical copies years ago have them as they were originally produced.
When you possess a physical copy of the movie the PC patrol can't mess with it.

HT3209 rented a movie downloaded it and it is not showing up in my purchases? where do find it to view the movie

Rented a movie on my PC and cannot find it to view the movie?

If you rented it on your PC's iTunes then it should have downloaded in the Movies part of your library. If you select Movies then is there a 'rentals' tab on it, and if there is, is that film in it ?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't browse the web on an Apple TV
You can view any content that is in your iTunes library on the PC via the Apple TV if it is in the correct format.

Does the film show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page for re-downloading ? If it does (films can't be re-downloaded in all countries, and even where they can be re-downloaded not all film studios have agreed to it) then try deleting the film from your iTunes library and redownload it : re-downloading.
If you can't re-download the film or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.
