How to get rented movie from iphone to computer?

hello,
thanks for taking the time to look at my post. I'm trying to figure out how to get a rented movie from my phone to my computer. when I plug my phone in to sync...and go to rented movies...the movie is listed there, but is grayed out.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
steve

Sorry, but Johnathan's answer is not correct. You can easily move your rented movie from your iPhone back to your Mac.
1) Connect your iPhone to your Mac and open iTunes.
2) Click on the the icon for the iPhone.
3) Click on the tab marked Video.
You will see a list of rented movies on your Mac and another list of rented movies on your iPhone. Each movie will have an arrow marked "Move" next to it pointing to the other device.
4) Click on the arrow marked "Move" to transfer the rented movie from your iPhone back to your Mac.
5) Click the "Apply" button at the bottom right hand of your screen on iTunes. Your iPhone will then sync and the rented movie will move to your Mac.
You must be connected to the internet to make this work, as iTunes will connect to the iTunes Store to validate the transfer.

  • How to get rented movie from PC to iPad

    I had a problem with a rented movie.....when I go to it on my iPad it won't let me play it then when I go to the little cloud underneath the play button it tells me to that the movie is rented but not downloaded.....where do I go on my iPad to manage downloads?  Then it downloaded on my computer and now I can't get it over to my iPad
    Please help

    Unfortunately, rented movies cannot be transferred from the device onto which they were downloaded.
    If you wish to watch it on your iPad, I would recommend using the "Report a Problem" link on your iTunes Store invoice. Apple will then, hopefully, make the rental available to you again for download within a day or two. It is worth making sure that you have sufficient storage space available on your iPad for the movie, and note that you will need a WiFi connection to download it.
    Sorry I don't have more positive news for you!

    As an added note, if you are trying to use photo stream, that will only work on newly taken photos.  Existing photos when photo stream is turned on will not sync to the stream.  Use the connection to your computer as descibed in the link as the way to get photos to your computer.

  • 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 get rented movies from MacBook to appear on Apple TV?

    I can buy movies and they appear fine, but when I rent a movie on MacBook for play on Apple TV, nothing appears in Apple TV under Movies. (And I've updated the firmware on Apple TV).
    Any guidance?

    You may well be right, the opening paragraph seems to support you in the sense that you can watch them on the tv, but the whole issue of transferring it to the tv is a little vague.
    In essence it may well be that simply watching the movie via streaming is what most people will want to do anyway, if that is indeed how it works.
    If transferring is allowed then I assume this would be a straight transfer and not a sync, since only one device can have the movie at a time.
    In my situation my goal would be to rent from the mac and stream it to my tv's since I have more than one of them. If however I have to transfer it to watch it, this then causes a problem. If we assume for the time being that movies can be transferred to the tv but not the other way around, I have no way to move the movie back from tv #1 to itunes to send it to tv #2.
    I'm now less certain than I was but I'm still inclined to think that we won't be able to transfer rented content from itunes to the tv, but I have to wonder if this will really be an issue for most of us.

  • Question about getting rented movie from Macbook to Tv

    I rented a movie on my MB yesterday while on the road, today I decided to watch the end of the movie on my tv at home.
    TV:
    setting>computer>add shared itunes Lib>Entered the code on my MB
    My MB itunes is showing on TV but can't find the rented movie??/
    Clicked on TV in itunes, I get only 2 tabs, Summary and Photos. Under Summary I am missing Automatic Sync or Custom Sync and no Rented Movie frame. No option to choose what movie, music, podcast etc.. I want to sync . Looks completely different that what I obtain on my G5????
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    F

    Yep - only one at a time. You can stream from more than one though. I have a primary Library that I use for syncing (I only sync photos and all the other content shows up automatically under "My Music, My Movies etc").

  • Lost rented movie from iphone....

    well, as you know, date & time changes randomly is known bug. I didn't know it caused to rented movie.
    anyway, I just transferred rented movie (spider man 3) last night after watching 15 chapters. it said that I had 19 hours to expire at that time. this morning, I connected with itunes for podcast. then disconnected, suddenly time & date changed. I changed to correct time & date manually. went to video section, rented movie was totally disappeared!!! now I can't get it from nowhere.
    of course, I sent feedback to apple. even I talked with guys in apple store. they have nothing to help me.
    if the sudden time & date change causes rented movie time expiration, it should be really really big problem. Apple must fix this thing.
    what is your opinions?

    Then you'll need to contact support for assistance my friend.

    It would require 3rd party software to get them off the phone. Touchcopy is one that works on both the Windows and Mac platforms. It is available from Wide Angle Software.
