HT1498 Can not rent movies on Apple TV

     The apple tv is connected to Wifi but renting a movie doesn't appear as an option.  We've tried turing the apple tv off but it still will not work.  Any suggestions.

I wasn't aware there was an Internet option.
Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router.

    Some movies and tv shows that I purchased on the apple tv will no longer play. The movies and tv shows were watched then removed from the apple tv and stored on my computer because of the settings I had on itunes. I put some of the movies back on the apple tv and now only one, Quantum of Solace HD, works. The other movies and the tv shows give a message apple tv not authorized to play. I can still buy and rent movies on both my atv and computer. There have been no problems with the music that I purchased on either the apple tv or computer. Also the movies and tv shows can still be played on the computer without a problem.
    Has anyone else had this problem with their atv? Is there any way to fix this problem?
    Yes. I 'm adding this to the many problems I have experienced since the 3.0/3.01 "upgrade", as I have discussed in several threads here. I purchased "Up" last night, and it plays fine on my Mac. However, the Apple TV gives me the "not authorized" message. I rebooted the ATV, disconnected the HDMI, deauthorized/reauthorized my Mac which is streaming my content to the ATV and rebooted. I am running 2.2 (factory restore after the 3.0/3.0.1 fiasco) on my ATV, and iTunes 9.0.2, Mac OS 10.5.8. No success. Quantum of Solace plays fine, but Good Luck Chuck does not. What a freaking nightmare. This is the first time in my LONG history of Apple products that I have even wavered in my support. I used to sell Mac 512s in the 80's, and love the platform, have used Macs ever since. Apple TV is really starting to wear me down. I sincerely hope we see an upgrade soon but I'm really near the end of rope.

  • HT1498 Trouble watching rented movie on Apple TV

    I have rented movies through my laptop several times and transferred them to my Apple TV to watch them.  However, I rented one the other day and after I transferred it and pulled it up to play it, I got the message that I wasn't authorized to do so.  However, the other movies I've rented I can play without a problem.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I am having the same problem. Rented a movie tonight. Downloaded it to my ipad but when I try to airplay it to my Apple TV, I'm only getting sound. I have checked my Apple TV is updated, I restarted it and unplugged it for 30 seconds. On my Apple TV I checked itunes for rentals and it says there is nothing there. The only thing I have not tried is restarting my ipad. It's an ipad 2 btw. If I get it sorted out, I'll let ya know how.

  • HT1498 Problem with renting movie from Apple TV

    Apple tv first asked me about my credit card code and then asked to go to iTunes store in my computer. I dont heve this movie in my rentals and I dont know what to do?

    Hey pablo3113,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like there may be an issue with your payment information, and thus the purchase was unable to complete. To check, go ahead and login to view your payment information on a computer with iTunes:

  • HT1498 Rented movie on apple tv will not play

    Rented movie on apple tv.  Does not show up in rental section.  Try to rent again and it says it has been rented and I should go to settings and click download.  There is no download.  Closest thing is to check for rentals  under itunes but it just sits there and spins for over an hour

    After about three hours it finally showed up under rentals.  Just a terrible way to rent a movie!!!

  • Can't rent movies/tv shows on apple tv and iphone

    I've just recently updated my apple id to my current email address.  All of my purchases show up with no issues.  However, now, I can't rent movies or tv shows from my Apple TV and my Iphone (I can purchase music on my Iphone with no issue).  I've even performed a restore on my Apple TV with no luck.  I can rent them with no problem on my MacBook Pro. I'll wait for the download to complete and AirPlay from my Iphone to my Apple TV.  Netflix, Home Sharing and all other services function just fine.  All devices are on the same WiFi network as well.  Even running the System Status report, everything's in the green.  I'm frustrated and lost on how to correct this issue.  All seem to work fine before updating my email address which has me thinking there was a glitch with that. Please help!!! 

    I actually had to go to the Genius Bar to get this solved. They made some adjustment, reloaded iTunes, and then it worked.  Sorry, I can't tell you exactly what they did.

  • How can I watch an Apple rented movie via Apple TV?

    Continue to have a freezing problem with rented movies from Apple. It *****.

    What I ended up doing was to back all the out of the choice sequence and the start the movie from the beginning again. We were able to watch one hour of the movie and then it froze again. After repeated efforts to get it to continue, we gave up and went to bed.
    For the recoded, the Internet connection was fine. Netflix worked flawlessly. Only the Apple movie connection was dead.
    How do I get my rental money back? I won't be able to finish watching within the required 24 hour period after having started it last night...
    I thought this problem would go away after having the FIOS service installed. A 10+ Mgb speed stream should feed a movie in jig time. It's certainly helped with download times on software and Netflix, YouTube, Vimeo streaming. Not Apple, which seems not to know how to buffer.
    Frustrated,
    Mark

  • HT1498 Hi, Is it possible to change the language when renting movies from apple TV?

    Hi, Is it possible to change the language when renting movies from apple TV?

    It depends on how the java code is gnerated. If for example months are given with fixed array .... then it will only be english
    But then agin you have the source code (.java files) open all java files in the oracle.forms froject and alter to your language then recompile and reacreate the jar (easily done with Jdeveloper)

  • Transfer Rented Movies from Apple TV V2 to Computer?!?!

    I rented some movies on my Apple TV. Can I transfer them to my Mac that the Apple TV is synced with? I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this. I know that I can transfer rented movies from the Mac to the Apple TV, but the other way???
    Please someone let me know.

    If you think you might need to watch your movie on anything other then Apple TV, rent it form iTunes on your computer. Once it is on your computer you can move it to an iPod, iPhone, and even Apple TV 2.0.
    Under this system the only thing you can't do is have an HD rented movie on your computer. iPods and iPhones can't play that anyway. Yes, I think media giants sleep safer when HD movies are not on peoples "corruptible" computers and safe and sound on an "appliance".
    The only way to make this any easier would be to allow SD rentals to transfer back to a computer but not HD. I think that would just add another layer of confusion.

    If you are positive it's not actually a 5G iPod Video, then you should be able to.
