Downloading films to ipad

I am looking to download films to the ipad wether that be renting or buying. I will not have internet connection where I will be so cannot stream films.
Apart from iTunes is there any other apps that do this??
I have had bad experiences with renting from iTunes in that I get half way though watching the film then it comes up with an error saying "could not load film"

I don't know where you live (BTW, your location is always important to include in a post like this since all apps are not available all over the world), bu in the U.S. - if you are a Comcast Xfinity subscriber, they have an app called Xfinity TV to Go, that has quite a number of films available for temporary download that can watched without WiFi.

Do you know how to download films from iPad?

Please tell me how to download films from ipad?

You can buy and download films via the iTunes app on the iPad, they will then download into the Movies app - you will need to download the films over wifi as there is a 20 meg limit per file over 3G. Or you can buy and download them on your computer and then sync them to the iPad via your computer's iTunes - select the iPad 'device' on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side on the Movies tab select which films to sync to it

Purchased film on iPad but its not showing on Home sharing after downloading to iTunes?

Hi all, I have recently purchasd Men In Black from itunes using my iPad 2 and downloaded it to my Mac. However when i went to watch it on Apple TV 2 its no where to be seen. I've checked the movie folder and its there above Men In Black 2, its still on my iPad and plays ok and it also plays ok on my Mac. What I don't understand is:
1. Why can't I see the film on Apple TV 2 despite it being in the same folder as my other movies?
2. Why doesn't the film show up when i plug my iPhone 4 in to put it on there?
3. The film doesn't show up on my iPad 2 when plugged into iTunes either even though its already on the device?
The only difference I can see is that the file is .ite and not .m4v , but then wheres the file i downloaded to my ipad or have I just wasted my money on a film with limtied sharing on my own account?
Cheers

Hi OP
Did this sort your problem? I have the same one too. Purchased tracks on my iPad not showing up on MBP or iPhone. Itunes wants to charge me for it againa dn again!
Anyone?

HT1535 I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my i

I don't want to sync what is on my iPod to my iPad. (I have a 32gb iPod but only 16gb on iPad. The iPod I use mostly for music.) I can't seem to add the films I have downloaded onto iPad to iTunes. If I could do that, I could erase them from iPad to create more storage.
This is intensely confusing, sorry.

Question.....
"I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my iPod?"
Answer.....
Yes you will lose the films that you downloaded to the iPad when you sync with your own iTunes unless you transfer the purchases into your own iTunes library. Were these movies that you purchased? If so, you might be able to download them again for free. Do you have multiple computers that you sync from or is this someone else's purchased content?
You can select whatever you want to sync to all of your devices in iTunes, you do not have to sync the same content to all device.
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iOS: Syncing with iTunes - Support - Apple

something other is dowloading somewhere on ipad

I can't view the pictures I've downloaded from my ipad to my PC. The only options I have is Tunes, TV, Movies or Apps. How do I view pictures on my PC.

What happens when you try to play the actual film ? And have you tried deleting them and (assuming that they're still in the store) redownloading them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page - or going into Edit > Preferences and on the Store tab ticking the 'show iTunes in the Cloud purchases' tick box so that they show in the My Movies part of your library with a cloud icon against it for redownloading) ?
(You can't store films in the cloud, whether they will show there for redownloading depends upon what country that you are in - and if you move countries or if the rights-holder removes them then you also won't be able to redownload them. Ideally you'd be taking a backup copy of all of your downloads, and not relying on being able to redownload them in the future.)

HT201272 Unable to download movies to IPad

I can't download movies to new IPAD and also IPhone 4 from iTunes . What am I doing wrong

Are you trying to download or re-download them ? If re-download, then films can currently only be re-downloaded in the US (and not all film studios are allowing their films to be re-downloaded). If you are trying to download films for the first time then are you getting any error messages ?

HT1491 how do I move a download from a ipad to another if already in downloads

How do I move a download from an ipad to another ipad if already in downloads?

No, rentals donwloaded on an iPad or iPhone can only be watched on it, and cannot be moved.
Rentals downloaded on a computer can be moved to an iPad or iPhone though.
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library.
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

How do I buy a movie I can't find in iTunes for download to my Ipad?

I want to buy the film 'The Color Purple' for download to my Ipad. I can't find it on iTunes (a search on iTunes just produces music albums). So how do I get hold of it?

Thanks Meg. It appears to be available from Amazon as a DVD, or for rent via LoveFilm, but not for download. I bought a different film from Amazon about 9 months ago, and was able to download it, but even that one doesn't appear to be downloadable any more.

I can't find the movie I downloaded on my iPad...please help! Downloaded two days ago.

I can't find the movie I downloaded on my iPad...please help! Downloaded two days ago.

If it's been successfully downloaded then it should be in the Videos app :
If you can't find it in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

Unable to download film message

I bought a film from ITUNES and the message keeps coming up not able to download this film. When I go into itunes and try and download it says download error. When I press retry it comes up with unable to download film message. There is enough space on the IPAD. I have tried resetting also taking off JavaScript. Neither worked I am at a loss now and just want this removed. Any suggestions or how do you get Apple to intervene and remove from the queue?

I've been getting the same problems for weeks. There are many threads on Apple Support Communities about this, so lets hope that Apple are looking into it.
It happened all of a sudden for me after weeks of being perfectly fine.
I have, however, raised it as a call with Apple support and may actually end up taking my devices into an Apple store to get a "Genius" to look at them and try and sort it. If they cant and I don't hear anything back from Apple Support then I will be very annoyed as this is taking me many attempts to get a simple app or music track to download! Something I don't want to be spending the rest of my life hitting "retry"!!!
Hopefully an Apple / account issue that they can sort at their end. I'll keep you posted on any progress I make and hopefully this may help you too.

Renting & Downloading Movies to Ipad 2 For Later Viewing

In addition to purchasing movies from Amazon or iTunes to download for later viewing on the iPad2 when I am on an airplane can I also rent movies from Amazon or iTunes for downloading on the iPad 2 for later viewing on an airplane.If so,ow long would the rental be good for.

Depending upon country that you are in then you might be able to rent films from iTunes, and as long as they have been fully downloaded you should be able to watch them whilst offline. From iTunes they last for 30 days, but once you start watching them you have 48 hours (24 if you are in the US) before they expire - you can watch them as many times as you like during those 24/48 hours

Can i buy on itunes on my Mac and have it automatically download to my ipad

So I am sat at work, thinking about my camping trip at the weekend. I usually like a movie on the iPad just in case. My iPad is at home....... Can I purchase a movie rental in iTunes on my Mac at work and have it automatically download to my iPad??

If you rent a film on your work's Mac then it will download on that Mac - rentals are a one-time only download, they will download on the device/computer that they are rented on. If you want it on your iPad then you will either need to rent it directly on the iPad, or rent and download it on the computer that you sync it to and then connect the iPad and move the rental over to it.

TS1566 I purchased a movie in my iPhone 5 but cannot get it downloaded to my iPad. I just get an error saying it can't download. No further info.

Hi Jlhall88,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots.
I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Can I play my rental on more than one device?
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
You can delete the movie prior to the expiration date if you want to make more space on your hard drive, iPod, iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV. However, the movie will automatically disappear from your iTunes library 24 (or 48) hours after you've begun viewing it.
What happens to my rented movie if don't watch it?
If you don't watch your rented movie, it will expire in 30 days and disappear from your iTunes library. You will need to rent it again in order to watch it.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Have been trying to download films on my i pad but receive message saying insuficient storage space so upgraded and paíd for moré storage space but still get same message insuficient space, despite settings saying is have 23 gb available. Any answers

I have been trying to download films on my I Pad but receive a message saying insuficient storage space, update. I updated a d paíd for extra space but still receive same message and cannot download the films. Any suggestionx

The message is referring to not having enough space on your iPad, not to not having enough space in your iCloud account. Purchasing additional storage in your iCloud account does not give you more available space on your iPad.
You can check how much space you have available on your iPad by going to Settings>General>Usage. If you don't have enough, you'll have to delete or sync some data off your iPad to free up additional space.
