How long does a movie rental remain available in the iTunes store?

How long does a movie rental remain available in the iTunes store?

On your computer you have 30 days to start viewing it, and once you start watching it you have 24 hours.  It remains in the store as long as Apple and the media owners decide. Years?

  • Is it safe to delete iTunes media that is no longer available in the iTunes Store?

    There is a support document that states it is OK to delete content locally so long as the content is available in the cloud depending on your geographic location.  As I'm in the US all media types are available.  From the document:
    You can delete items that you bought from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store from your iOS device, Mac, or PC. Because Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation) plays content from the cloud, you don't need to delete items from your Apple TV.
    Before you delete an item, make sure you can download it again. If you can't or need to pay to download it again, back up the item before you delete it.
    What I am still not clear on is if it is also safe to delete content that is no longer available in the iTunes store?  Will it still be available for previous purchases?
    I prefer the quality and off-line availability of iTunes media over Google Play but I've had issues recovering deleted media in iTunes in the past and so have less anxiety about the security of my purchases on Google Play versus iTunes.  Can someone confirm if items no longer available for sale in iTunes are or are not still available via the cloud?

    Thanks for the reply although I'm not too happy to hear it.  What's awesome about the cloud is no longer having to keep up with any physical media.  The promise of that is realized with everything else (my work, music, books) besides movies and TV.
    I wonder how Google Play will handle movies/tv that becomes unavailable?  Google Play does allow you to download media in some circumstances (on Android and iOS) but is generally intended  for streaming.  Maybe relying on a physical copy as I do with iTunes should make me more comfortable with it and not less. 
    I will come back to mark your reply as the solution as it becomes clear there is not a contrary position.  Thank you.

  • HT201209 I have remaining credit at the iTunes Store, but will not let me use without a download code! That code was thrown away month ago, after downloading it. How can I use my unused credit $??

    I have remaining credit at the iTunes Store, but will not let me use without entering 'your Gift Card or Download Code' which, of course, was thrown away months ago, when I first put the code in! Originally it was put into my computer, now I'm trying to redeem on my iPhone. Anybody have any ideas....I mean it IS my money! Thanks Ruthie

    What you are saying does not make sense. You redeem a card once, that's it. It doesn't matter what device you are using, as long as it's using the same account, you will get the reminder of your store credits.
    Could you give more details now?

  • Does VUDU come on Apple TV? If not, how do you recommend that Apple at it to the iTunes Store?

    IS VUDU available on Apple TV?
    If not, how do you recommend that Apple add it to the iTunes Store?

    It is not listed in Apple's list of Apple TV apps…
    https://www.apple.com/appletv/whats-on/
    You would need to do something to an Apple TV that will get this post deleted, see if you can guess what that is.
    You could just buy a device that actually supports the services you need…
    https://www.roku.com - it is a channel that can be added to a Roku.
    http://www.vudu.com/setup_roku.html
    Other media boxes also support Vudu (Chromecast, Xbox, Playstation, Android, WDTV… basically everyone who isn't Apple).
    If you think Apple will add Vudu as an Apple TV channel ask them via the feedback form. Just bear in mind that Vudu directly competes with iTunes video sales & rentals.

  • TS1702 The app game that I bought for iphone is not available in the itunes store anymore. How can I get it back on my iphone 4

    The app game that I bought for iphone is not available in the itunes store anymore. How can I get it back on my iphone 4

    If it's no longer in the store then you won't be able to re-download it - do you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes (or on a backup) that you could sync back to your phone ?

  • Is it true that After March 30, 2015, AOL will no longer support your ability to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store or did I just receive a phishing email?

    I just received the following email.....Is this legit? Makes no sense.
    Dear iTunes Customer,
    Our records indicate that you have been using your AOL Username to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store.
    After March 30, 2015, AOL will no longer support your ability to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. In order to continue using store features, including the ability to access your previously purchased content, you must transition from signing in with your AOL Username to signing in with an Apple ID.
    To make this transition, simply sign in once more with your AOL Username to iTunes on your Mac or PC. You will automatically be taken through a few short steps to complete the process.
    When the process is complete, your new Apple ID will allow you to continue to purchase and download music, movies, TV shows, apps, books, and more. Additionally, your Apple ID will allow you to access other Apple services, such as iCloud and the Apple Online Store.
    This transition does not affect any AOL services you may be using with your AOL Username.
    AOL Usernames which have not been transitioned to Apple ID will permanently lose access to the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store after March 30, 2015. Apple will be unable to provide support for AOL Usernames which are not transitioned by this date.
    To learn more about this transition, visit support.apple.com/kb/HT204268.

    The iTunes Store team

    The link that appears in the copy in the OP does not go to an Apple site, it is something to the effect of newitunes.com, whereas the text tells you it is an Apple support document.
    However, if you take the text of the support document listed, I put it in my browser and it does lead to a legit Apple Support document about coverting. Convert your AOL Username to an Apple ID - Apple Support  Seems this needs to be done by March 31, 2015, as AOL will no longer allow users to use their AOL identification.

  • HT5085 if I want to purchase a matched song shouldn't it be available in the iTunes store??

    I'm not fully understanding iTunes match.. I have songs in my library that are matched but some of them I want to purchase from the iTunes store. If they are matched that should mean that they are available in the iTunes store because iTunes is seeing them and re-downloading them to my library. However, when I try to find the song in the store to purchase it's not there...
    Wondering if anyone has any insight to this?

    Touché.  That is one intense song, but it does not seem to be for sale at any of the major USA online song retailers (iTunes, Amazon MP3, Google Play). 
    He is touring the USA in December so maybe it will get a proper release.  Good luck.

    Hi
    I have a Macbook air & iPhone 4.
    what do I need to do if I want to buy a book (ebook) or an application that is not available in the iTunes store in my area i.e. Africa (Egypt)?
    Do I need to open a different account in the iTunes store in the other area i.e. USA ?
    Please advice
    Thank you

    You can only buy content from your own country's store i.e. the Egyptian store if you are in Egypt - you need to be in a country to use its store, so to use the US store you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account. If there is an app or any other item that you would like to be buy that isn't currently available in the Egyptian store then you can try requesting that it be added, but unless the app's developer or rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • How long does it take for Apple to send the content code for a free upgrade to Mountain Lion?

    Has anyone managed to successfully receive the content code in their email for a free ugprade to Mountain Lion?
