HT1143 i can't get my rented movie from itunes to play on my t.v through Apple t.v.

Why won't the movie that I rented from itunes play on my t.v.?

Try this. Swipe to the right from your home screen to bring up the search feature. Type in the name of one of the movies. If the move appears in the search - tap it to begin playing. Let it play for a few minutes. Then hit done. Go to the videos app and see if the movies are there now.
You can also look in the iPod app and see if the movies show up there. If so, tap on the movie to play.

  • Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

    Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

    I read that I may need to start the movie prior to departure so that it can connect via wifi (or whatever internet connection I use) and start the 24-hr "timer" for rented movies.  So,.. no truth to that?  More specifically, I can start a rented movie on iTunes, while on a plane, without an internet connection?

  • Can I watch a rented movie from Itunes (iMac) on my Apple TV 3 without airplay and home sharing?

    I recently download a rented movie from itunes store in my iMac. My question is, if I can watch my rented movie in my apple tv without Airplay or Home sharing? The reason is because I don't want to turn on my iMac every time that I want to watch a movie.
    Thanks!

    If you rented the movie from Apple TV, then you can't watch it on the iPad.  The screenshot below is from Here

  • Why is the rented movie from iTunes not playing?

    I have rented a movie from iTunes in my iPad, and it is not playing.  When I press on the movie title from the iPod > purchsed section, it gives me a black/blank screen for a second or two and then takes me back to the main desk-top screen.  Is there another program or step that I am missing? 

    Absolutely correct!  Wasn't even thinking about that.  LOL

  • How can I get an HD movie from iTunes store to play on original iPad

    I recently purchased an HD movie--Brave--from the iTunes store.  I'm trying to play on my original iPad (iPad 1), but iTunes refuses to synch it because it says it is an unsupported format.  The movie is in 1080p format.  I typically get both HD and SD formats when I purchase movies, but iTunes no longer downloads the SD version automatically when I purchase the HD version.  I attempted to get an SD version from the store, but it said I already purchased the movie and instructed me to check the downloads.  There is no SD download pending and a check for new downloads was fruitless.
    Can someone confirm that the original iPad is unable to play HD video?  I imagine it is the 1080p that's the problem.  Can anyone confirm that 720p would work?  Is there no longer a means to get both HD and SD when purchasing a movie from the iTunes store?  If there is, how?
    Thanks for your help.
    Jamie

    You can get the SD or 720p version by:
    Open iTunes 11
    Click iTunes in menu bar > select Preferences...
    Click on the Store tab
    Change When downloading High Definition videos, prefer dropdown to 720p > click OK
    Click on the iTunes Store button
    Click Purchased link
    Click Movies tab
    You should now see a download icon for the movies you already have 1080p version of.
    Click on this download icon to download the 720p version.
    This will put a 720p version in the same folder on your hard drive as the 1080p version.  If you have iTunes setup to play 1080p when available, it will play the 1080p version.  When you connect your iPad 1, it will sync the 720p version.
    Don't forget to change your preference back to 1080p so you can continue to get the higher quality version.

  • HT1657 Can I stream a rented movie from computer to tv?

    Can I stream a rented movie from computer to tv?

    If you have an Apple TV, you can move the rented movie there to watch it. There is no way I know of to do a true stream of a movie rented from the iTunes Store, nor can a movie from there be played on anything other than an Apple device or in Apple's software.
    Regards.

    can i get my rented movies off my ipad and onto my PC without my ipad in my possession? also can i change my password to access my ipad remotely to stop the intrusions?

    Where did the movies come from?
    For what you said you should be easily be able to do what you want except for:
    "remove them from the ipad but still have access to them for viewing on the road or at hotel"
    Home sharing only works wehn the devices are connected to the same network
    Understanding Home Sharing
    If they are iTunes purchases, you should be able to redownload most iTunes purchases on the road if you have an internet connection by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    Did you rent the film directly on the iPhone ? I've never rented films, but from : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
    You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
    If you've rented a film on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to sync it to your iPad from your computer's iTunes via the Movies tab that shows on the right-hand side of iTunes when you've selected the iPad 'device' on its left-hand side

  • HT1657 Why can't I transfer rented movies from my iPad to my Mac?

    Why can't I transfer rented movies from my iPad to my Mac? This is absolutely senseless and annoying! I rented the movie and  should be able to watch it wherever I decide to!! A bit more concern for your clients, please...
