    i cant move my rented movie to my apple tv 1st generation. keeps saying something about firewall but i dont have any security turned on... helppp

    Kelly - If you just opened the AppleTV1, go to Settings>About and check the software version.
    Last software made was 3.02 (one of the better ones).
    If lower, update it to that, but make a note of what it shipped with in case you ever factory restore it.
    Have you configured ATV1 for LAN/internet access (ethernet by simply plugging in, wi-fi by adding wi-fi details in settings).?  If connected to internet you should be able to access YouTube on it.
    ATV1 does not use Home Sharing.  iTunes computer and AppleTV1 need to be on the same LAN.
    To set it up for itunes use you must 'register' it with iTunes with a numeric code.  Ideally the main computer used with it should be registered for 'syncing'.  Have you added a computer iTunes library under the AppleTV's Settings>Computers menu?
    You need to highlight the top entry on this page, press select which should give a numeric code.  You then go to itunes on the computer and look for an AppleTV under Devices on the left, select and enter the code.  You can then configure auto or custom syncing.
    Once configured, locate the rental in iTunes and choose to 'move it' to the AppleTV.

  • I rented a movie on my iPad but cannot move it to my computer to watch on tv via Apple tv. How do I transfer the rented movie to my computer?

    I rented a movie on my iPad but cannot move it to my computer to watch on tv via Apple tv. How do I transfer the rented movie to my computer?

    I just rented a movie from my iPad2 and tried to play it through my ATV2 with AirPlay and same problem.... This is absurd guys. Apple I know there are copyright hoops to jump through but come on!! The whole pitch behind AirPlay and AppleTV was to make it easy to watch my purchases on my TV no matter what device they were on. Now I've got to hold my iPad in front of my face to watch a movie for nearly 3 hours!! And when I go to the support site I have no option other than to send an email to billing, screw this. I've not bought a DVD since I purchased my ATV2 over a year ago but if you guys are gonna pull this crap then what incentive do I have to continue the use of something that may or may not work the way it was advertised.
    By the way, this is the first time I've had this problem because I normally rent straight off the ATV or my computer, which by the way I was considering replacing my PC with an iPad but looks like you guys aren't ready for me to make that kind of a switch.
    Don't tell us that a product will do XY and Z then put limits on Y sending to Z.
    FIX THIS!!!

  • How do i transfer a rented movie from my user account to my wife's user account?

    How do I transfer a rented movie from my user account to my wife's user account?  I sync my iPad with my user account and she sync's her iPad with her user account, but she wants the movie I downloaded onto her iPad.  (We use the same apple ID).

    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202 - You can manage your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers as long as you have set the device to "Manually manage music."  -  e.g. adding music from a second computer to an i-device.
    Hold on.  I don't know if the above will work with a rented movie.  There's all kinds of restrictions on what you can do with rented movies.

  • HT1860 I purchased a movie on my apple tv (1st generation) and I'm unable to download the movie to my computer.  What am I missing?

    I purchased a movie on my apple tv (1st generation) and I'm unable to download the movie to my computer.  What am I missing?  I have home sharing set up and can see my computer iTunes on my apple TV.  I just can't see my apple TV movie on my computer.

    Hello theycallmeboz,
    If the movie was purchased on the AppleTV it wont show up in home sharing until that movie has been downloaded to an iTunes library. You can download previous purchases from the iTunse Store at any time. The article below goes over that process.

  • How do i transfer a rented movie from my ipod to my computer

    I rented a movie from itunes onto my ipod. It doesn't appear under purchases but i can veiw it from videos . I decided that i would prefer to watch it from my computer (windows vista, I tunes version 10.6.3.25) but when i sync my ipod (IOS 5.1.1) it transfers my other movies that i bought but not the movie that i rented. I can't find the rented movie anywhere on my Itunes. Does that mean I cannot transfer movies that i rented on my ipod?

    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 can i watch a rented movie in my apple tv?

    I rented a movie in iTunes and want to watch it in my apple TV.  I try to "drag" the movie to the apple TV under Devices, and can't seem to do it.  When I go to my shared movies in apple TV the rental is not there.  Does anyone know what I need to do?

    I assume you are using the Apple TV 1 (silver/grey).
    The rental needs to be transferred to the Apple TV. It sounds as though you have paired a secondary (streaming only) library only and you need a primary library to transfer content.

    Hi Technician7,
    It is true that you can "return" app licenses to Apple Configurator and redistribute that license to another iPad. The key is that both iPads must be "Supervised" in order to return the app license. See this from Apple:
    Removing apps from devices
    If you use Apple Configurator to remove a redeemed VPP app from a supervised device, Apple Configurator marks the corresponding redemption code as available. It can be reassigned to a different device supervised by this copy of Apple Configurator for this Mac only. It is not available for redemption by other Macs or iOS devices.
    If you unsupervise a supervised device, all apps will be removed from the device and the redemption codes used to install those apps will be marked available for reassignment. If you simply remove a device record from Apple Configurator, the redemption codes for any apps on that device will not be available for reassignment.
    I hope this answers your question!
    ~Joe

  • How can I transfer a rented movie from iPhone to iPad both on iOS 5

    Ever since I upgraded my iPad to iOS 5.0.1 I have been having a few problems, one is that Safari randomly shuts down, another is that this notice board randomly shuts down and today my biggest problem is that iTunes shuts down as soon as I choose movie, so that I am unable to rent a movie from iTunes.
    I thought if I downloaded to my iPhone 4 which is also upgraded to iOS 5 that the cloud would automatically synch to the iPad .
    That didn't happen, is there a way of making this happen?

    Thanks iCrizzo. I've spent ages exploring iTunes and notice boards and manuals to find out how to do this and sadly I have to agree with you. It just does not seem possible.

  • How do I transfer a rented movie on iTunes from my iMac to my MacBook Pro?

    I got on my iMac today and rented a few movies thinking that iTunes would send them out to all my devices automatically. I have all the check boxes checked on all devices to download automatically. There are instructions for transfering from computer to a device but not how to do it from one computer to another.

    Hi Claire,
    Rentals can be downloaded from a computer to a device, but not to another computer. Here is the Apple Support article on Movie Rentals FYI:

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you rent a movie on the Apple TV, then it can only be watched on the Apple TV. If you want to watch movies on multiple devices, you need to download it to your computer, where you can then transfer it to other devices or stream it to your Apple TV as well as watch it from your Mac.

  • How do I find my rented movie on apple tv, how do I find my rented movie on apple tv, how do I find my rented movie on apple tv

    How do I find my rented move on my new Apple TV?

    This thread is from over a year ago. Also, that only applies if you rented via your computer. Hence the 'computers' icon. It is accessing your computers iTunes library via home sharing, not the cloud. Rentals made on other devices can only be viewed on that 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.
