HT1657 Can i rent a movie and then watch it without a wi-fi connection???
i want to know if i can rent a movie from the itunes store and watch it on an airplane???
Welcome to the Apple Community.
From my own personal experience, I have found that when I turn off the Wi-Fi on my Wi-Fi only iPad, I am still able to play rented movies on it. I have tried this perhaps four or five times and in each case, this has been the result. I have also noted that other users have had the same experience as I.
However saying that I have noted a small number of users that have stated they are unable to view rented movies without an Internet connection. This knowledge base article from Apple, also suggests that an Internet connection is required.

Downloaded a movie from iTunes to my iPad. 2 minutes into the movie it stopped and My Videos is stuck in black screen mode. So basically rented a movie and never watched it.
The EXACT same thing happened to me last night! Rented a movie; it had barely started and then froze. When I touch the video app icon, all I get is a blank, dimly lit screen. None of the other videos I own will display either. Was your problem ever resolved?

Why after I rented a movie and finish watching it and wanna watch it again with in the 24 hours, have to pay another rent fee to watch it? When I already paid the the fee to rent it for 24 hours?
Start the video and slide all the way to the beginning. If the video isn't in your Movie app, then the rental expired.

HT1657 If I rent a movie and download it to my iPad.
If I rent a movie and download it to my iPad. Can I still watch it if wifi is no longer available?
Normally once a rental has completely downloaded, you no longer need a connection to the iTunes Store to play the movie. Some people have, however, tried to play a rental and been instructed to connect to the iTunes Store. I have not been able to spot any pattern in when it works and when it doesn't, so all I can say is that it should work but may not. I know that's not a good answer, but it's the best I can provide. Perhaps someone else here will have better insight into the issue.

I rented a movie and cant watch it
i rented a movie and now it will not let me clcik on my tab for rent on itune to get to it to watch it it has finished downloading and it took my $ for the download i tryed reseting my computer as well and i still can not get to my move
OK, so when you are in iTunes, you should see Movies on the sidebar, right under Music. Once you click on that, you should see "Rented, Unwatched, Movies, Genres, Home Videos, and List" at the top of the window. Click on the Rented tab, and you should see your movie. Click on the movie, and it should then display a Summary window below it with the description of the movie:
Right next to the title in the Summary box, you will see an arrow. If you click on that, you should get a message asking if you want to start playing your movie now:
Click on Play and enjoy!

HT1657 If I rent a movie for my IPad do I need to be connected to the internet to view it?
I want to know if I can rent a movie and be able to watch it without an internet connection, like on an airplane for instance or driving in a car. I have a wi-fi version IPad not a 3G version.
As long as the film has been fully downloaded then you should be able to watch it without being online

HT1657 Can I rent a movie now and watch it on an airplane without an Internet connection?
Once you rent the movie from itunes, does it down load to your device so you can watch it later without a wifi connection?
It will download onto the device or computer that you rent it on. If you are doing it on your iPad, then as long as it has completed downloading to the Videos app then you should be able to watch it without being online

Can you edit AVCHD movies and then export them as AVCHD losslessly?
As the title suggests, is it possible to create an AVCHD project in iMovie with AVCHD files (1920x1080 60p) edit them and then export them losslessly with a new Imac? I know of only one program that can do that and that one doesn't allow anything other than simple cuts & trims. You can't add music or any sophisticated editing.
No.

Can someone please let me know how I can download a rented movie to my ipad again. It appears it failed to download to my ipad, when I attempt to watch it states to download it again. That feature is not on my ipad. The download area only shows up when an item is downloading.
Hello there, cls1234.
If you rented your movie on your computer you can check on your computer for available downloads. This Knowledge Base article provides how to check that:

If you downloaded it on your iPad itself, try these steps to see if you can still play the file:

I just received apple tv as a present this Christmas and the shows take too long to download when I want to watch them. Can I download multiple shows overnight or during day and watch them in the evening?? If so how?
The ATV stores no content.
Content can be downloaded to iTunes on a computer and then streamed to the ATV via HomeSharing. -
I guess I'm wondering if it will download now and the movie be on my PC for the next 30 days until I start to watch it? Or will I need internet access while I'm away to watch it.
I'd rather rent now and not buy it.As far as I know rentals can only be downloaded once, I think that it's just bought films that can be re-downloaded (which isn't possible in all some countries).
-
Now everytime I try to play it I can't and I can't download it. I've been charged but can't watch my purchase. How do I just return it and rent it somewhere else? Too much of a hassle.
