How can I watch purchased itunes shows on my tv w/o apple tv?

I bought the Futurama season pass and I want to watch the episodes in 50 inch HD, but I don't have apple tv and myimac is too far from the tv for a cable so how can I do this?
I have a google tv box that will talk to my pc laptop, and an xbox 360 with a program called xbox connect that tricks the xbox into thinking my imac is a pc so i can stream music and videos but i cant get purchased itunes videos.
can i authorize the pc laptop on my itunes account and copy the shows to it and then play them on the google tv box via the pc? (im at work and i cant just try it myself)

    Hi Miriam1972,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You can use iTunes on your laptop to download the tv shows for viewing. See this article for the steps to download the shows:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • How can I watch purchased TV shows on my analog TV?

    Is there any practical way to watch the TV shows I have purchased from the iTunes store on my analog TV?
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe AppleTV is an option for me because it outputs to digital TVs, only, right?
    I am willing to go either wired or wireless, given the following restraints:
    My analog TV has the following inputs (only):
    F connection - coaxial
    Composite video - yellow RCA plug
    My desktop G4 and my TV are about 35-40 ft apart by air (two walls in between), or 50 ft by wire.
    *Wireless options:*
    My Mac presently has no wireless capability, but I could add either an original AirPort card (11b) or a PCI wireless card (11g).
    *Does anyone know of a wireless box that will connect to my analog TV and receive wirelessly transmitted iTunes content?*
    I also have a digital-to-analog converter for digital broadcast TV - any way to use that to convert AppleTV output to analog?
    *Wired options:*
    My video card (ATI 9200 flashed for Mac) has S-video out, and I have an S-video-to-RCA adaptor.
    The cheapest and simplest option looks like 50 ft of RCA cable.
    *Does anyone know if 50 ft run of RCA cable is doable for video and audio?*
    My G4 also has an ethernet port, presently in use for my DSL modem, but I believe I could free up that connection if there is an ethernet solution that will connect to my TV.
    Thanks,

    Wouldn't it be great if I could just burn a DVD and pop it into the DVD player connected to my TV? I know, I know ... but wouldn't it be great?

    I failed to mention it - but yes, my TV does have the red and white RCA plugs for audio in addition to the yellow one for video.
    The video-capable iPod is a good idea, but I just got a Shuffle (gift), and would be reluctant to buy a second iPod at this time. In addition to the initial cost of the iPod, I have read the cable needed for video-out can be expensive for some models.
    I may have found an easy solution, though not as cheap and reliable as I had hoped. While looking for 50 ft of composite video/audio cable (not in stock at Radio Shack, Wal-Mart, or Best Buy), I made an impulse purchase: the Terk "TV Anywhere" model LF-30S - a wireless solution.
    Unfortunately, it's a 2.4 GH device, the same as my cordless phone, which causes serious interference - a common complaint about this product. With my phone unplugged, the video looks OK on my TV. I haven't yet heard the audio, because I needed another adaptor to go from 1/8" headphone jack to red/white RCA.
    Pending the results of further testing, I haven't decided if I will keep the TV Anywhere or return it. A hard wire would be half the price, but would require drilling holes in my hardwood floors for basement cable routing - but if I get any audio hiss or pops from the wireless, that's what I'll do.

  • How can I watch was is showing on my Mac on my Apple TV?

    Hi,
    I just got the Apple TV and I would like to show what is playing on my Mac on the TV.  How do I accomplish this?
    Thank you!

    By mirroring. To do this natively you need a 2011 or later MBP running 10.8
    Otherwise you can try 3rd party software like airparrot

  • HT1491 How come I can't watch purchased tv show on my ipad if not connected to Internet?

    How come I can't watch purchased tv show on my ipad if not connected to Internet?

    There are two kinds of content, streaming and downloaded. If your show is a streaming show you have to be on the internet to view it. (akin to you not being able to watch youtube videos without being on the net)
    Downloaded files can be watched anytime (within the constraints of the DRM of course)

  • How can I watch purchased movies on apple tv?

    How can I watch purchased movies on apple tv?  I recently purchased an apple tv and cannot play the movies I have bought on my itunes account?
    Can anyone help?

    You can also got to movies and select purchased and if it comes up cannot connect to server go to settings and scroll down to restart and it should work. That's what I did and it showed my purchased movies and I don't have my Apple TV paired with a computer. Just using iCloud. But you also can pair your computer but its not necessary to watch purchased movies you have bought through iTunes. Hope this helps.

  • How can i watch a netflix show on an airplane, how can i watch a netflix show on an airplane

    How can i watch a netflix show on an airplane. Can't stream

    If the airline doesn't offer WiFi (or doesn't allow streaming over the WiFi they offer), then you can't. You'll need to rent or purchase a movie from another source so that you can download it onto your device ahead of time.
    Best of luck.

  • How can I transfer purchased itunes from my computer to my iPod without losing/erasing the current songs on my iPod?

    How can I transfer purchased iTunes from my computer to my iPod without losing all the songs I currently have on my iPod?  I've already burned the purchased songs onto DVDs, but they still aren't recognized as authorized songs that I can copy onto my iPod.  One other note:  The songs I purchased were done so with iTune versions much earlier than 10.0, does that matter?  I couldn't tell you what version though.   

    Not sure what you are saying.
    What is stopping you from adding the songs?
    Are you getting an error message?
    What does it say?

    Yes. It's called "Video". It's one of the built in apps.
