If you wish to use home sharing then you need to setup the Apple TV under your ID.

You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

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.

When I stream a movie via Apple TV from my iPad Air into my Samsung TV, I'm getting the "soap opera" effect. This only happens when I use Apple TV, not when I view a movie directly through a cable channel. Is there a way to eliminate this effect?

I'm having the same problem. It's not an issue with my TV, i've turned this feature off. I've tried playing with the ATV display settings but nothing works. When I stream netflix from my Samsung bluray player, I don't get the soap opera effect, but when I stream any video from the ATV, the soap opera effect is there. I'm thinking it's a choice that Apple made, but I really wish it could be turned off. Not a lot of people are searching for this, because it can be easy to overlook, but it's driving me nuts!

How do I stream purchased movies to my Macbook Pro if I've already downloaded them and moved the source files to an external desktop hard drive and I'm away from home?

I recently added a number of movies to my iTunes library by redeeming digital copeis that came with Blu-rays. Due to limted disc space on my MacBook Pro, and for safe keeping, once I downloaded the movies, I moved the source files to an external desktop hard drive. When I'm home and I'm able to access that external HD via my home network, I'm able to watch the movies without an issue. However, if I'm away from home and I want to watch them, I'm not sure how to do that. I thought I could "stream" purchased movies from within iTunes - even after downloading them - using "iTunes in the Cloud" but can't figure out how to do that, or it simply isn't possible.
What are my options?

I understand that I can't play my downloaded movies when my external HDD is not connected becuase iTunes is looking for the downloaded files. This is not the issue. The issue is that because my HDD is not connected (as in when I'm away from home) I'd like to be able to stream the movies via the cloud.
If I hadn't downloaded the movies when I redeemed my codes, would I have been able to keep the movies online via Apple iCloud and watched them anytime by streaming them or must the movies be downloaded in order to be viewed on my MacBook? I read that Apple allows movies purchased (or redeemed) via iTunes to be stored in the cloud via Apple iCloud so that they can be viewed any time, on any device. IF this is the case, how does it work? From what I can see, it looks like movies can only be "streamed" from the cloud when useing Apple TV; on my iPhone and MacBook Pro, it looks like they need to be downloaded in order to be viewed.
Can someone clarify this for me?
Also - Michael - when you said that If I've already downloaded the film but I'm away from my external HDD I should "Delete the entry from the iTunes library so iTunes only sees the iTunes in the Cloud version", what exactly would this mean? Would this mean that I could then stream the movie from the cloud or would I have to re-download it to my Mac's internal HDD in order to watch it?
Many thanks!

How to download a rented movie on apple tv

I rented a movie through apple tv but then paused during download. How do I complete the download?

There is no downloaded content as the device has no accessible storage. It will cache the stream as you watch, but then will be flushed when other content is accessed, device turned off etc.
When you say you paused during download, what do you mean? Have you tried going to settings - iTunes - check for rental

Problem streaming HD Movies to Apple TV through home network

Got my new Apple TV yesterday but has some quirks. The biggest one is I'm in the middle of watching an iTunes HD movie I own -- streaming it to my Apple TV on my home network -- and the video starts stuttering halfway through the movie. It was playing with no sound, the video was jumpy, etc.
I stopped the movie, unplugged the Apple TV, tried playing the movie again -- I did this a couple of times -- and same result. This issue didn't happen until about an hour into the movie -- for the first hour of the show it played perfectly. Just before the movie, I'd watched an HD TV show I downloaded from iTunes earlier in the day, and was streaming this to my new Apple TV over the home network, and it played fine.
The other issue I'm seeing is it takes a looooooooooong time to load my iTunes Library from my computer. I selected my shared library, and then it takes about five times (or more) as long to load the list of movies compared to my older Apple TV (the previous generation 160GB hard drive model).
Is anyone else seeing these issues, and is there a fix?

I am having the same problem streaming HD anything, Movies or TV shows. It seems to try to buffer more of the video than when using SD video anything. When playing SD anything, it seems to start playing very soon after pressing play.
My content is on a spring 2009 iMac
CPU 2.93 GHz
4GB RAM
OS 10.5.8
Network
Wireless N (G,B 2.4 GHz) No G or be devices on network presently not switching to N only because iPhone 3GS doesnt 'support N.
Airport Extreme (man BS) -> Airport Extreme (Extend Network mode) -> Airport Extreme (Join Network Mode).
Thanks,

How do I stream a movie from my iPhone onto a computer?

I have a movie I downloaded on my iPhone, and I want to play it onto a computer connecting through USB. I don't want to download the movie onto the computer using iTunes or whatever, I just want to stream the movie from my phone to the computer.
I would like to stream the movie I have on my phone onto somebody else's computer which will then stream onto a projector. Is this possible? If so, how?

No.

How do I reinstall iDVD now that apple doesn't give us a disc?

So some how iDVD is missing from my MacBook Pro which is purchased in Oct 2012. Back in the day I would have just put the old install disc in, re-installed iDVD and case closed.
How to I get iDVD back on my Mac?

If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

How do I loop a movie for Apple TV

I have looked at the archives and I cannot get it to work the way it is explained.
I have saved a QT movie with Loop checked. It loops fine after it is saved before I send it to iTunes
When I send it to iTunes it will not loop. For some reason when I create a Playlist with the movie in it and ask it to repeat it does not show up in the playlist when I want to send it to Apple TV.
Any help would be appreciated..I'm getting frustrated!
Thanks
Kris

How did you do that?
I have been waiting for a solution to loop my movie in Apple TV.

I use apple TV to watch Netflix. How can I stream the movie, so it doesn't stop every few minutes?

Why does the Netflix not streaming all at once, instead of every few minutes, interrupting the movie.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

How do you get Netflix movies on Apple TV 2?

Folks:
Apple says in the very first sentence on the very first page of the first chapter of their of their Apple TV 2 "Setup Guide" that you can watch streaming content from Netflix and then NEVER MENTIONS NETFLIX AGAIN! How disingenuous is that?!? I tried at the iTunes Store and they'll sell you aps but they won't help you actually stream movies from Netflix.
Now I could go to Apple Support except that I received my Apple TV 2 as a present and so I don't have the purchase date (it is after the 90 days anyway even though I haven't hooked it up yet) so they just keep sending me into a never-ending FU loop. Right now I'm so angry that I don't think that I will ever buy another Apple product again. gonna be tough though since I have an iMac, an Airbook, an iPhone 4, an iPhone 3GS, two iPods, and TWO Airport Extremes... So here I am trying to see if you folks can help me out.
I think the easiest thing for you to do would be to get me a URL where someone has dealt with this issue and I'll take it from there.
Thanks in advance,
mnilan

I don't have tv firmware update under the settings menu and I have been to the set manual I have tried youtube and I can't find the solution anywhere. Surely there must be some way to add things like netflix or lovefilm on this.
Okay, lets start at the beginning...
After setting up the TV device and turning on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer, do you see an opening screen something like this on your HDTV?
If so, you should be able to see a portion of the Netflix app peeking in at the bottom of your HDTV screen which you should be able to select as seen here...
If you don't, then the next thing to do is to go to the "Settings" menu and select the "General" option as seen here.
At this point you can select the "About" option to check to see what version of IOS is installed on your devices. I.e., you probably want the latest software versions available/compatible for both iTunes and your TV device. Here is what I am currently running on my entertainment system device...
If the software is not up to data and you have not automatically received notification of the availability of newer software, then you can go back to the "General" memu as depicted above and select the "Update Software" option to manually check for a firmware (non-volatile software) update which may fix your problem. If this does not fix your problem, I would next try forcing a cold reboot by using the "General > Restart" menu option or simply unplugging and re-plugging in the device.
If this doesn't help, the next step would be to go to the "General > Reset" menu option located just above the "Restart" option as depicted above. Opening this option will give you access to both the "Reset" and "Restore" options which are usually your points of last resort before returning the device to an Apple store or tech support facility for hardware testing. (Of the five units I currently own, one did actually fail between the watching of two movies an was replaced by the local Apple store after confirming a hardware problem instore—so this remains a possibility here for your purchase.
Hope this may help...
