HT1657 Can't watch a movie on iPad after downloading from iTunes

I downloaded a movie from iTunes and can't watch it.  I get an error message "The operation could not be completed". Any suggestions?

  • HT1657 Where can i find the movie i have already downloaded from itunes on my ipad ?

    Some part make me confused :((

    If you've downloaded it on the iPad or synced it from your computer's iTunes then it should be in the Videos app (iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store) :

    Yes. although you do occasionally hear about people having problems.  If your trip is less than 24 hours, it might be a good idea to start the movie while you're connected to WiFi (which will start the rental clock ticking) and pause it.  You're not supposed to have to do this, but some people swear it prevents the occasional glitch.  I've only rented a couple of movies and they worked find on the plane.

  • HT1657 Can you watch rented movies in airplane mode?

    can you watch rented movies from itunes on your iphone in airplane mode?

    Actually, I just called AppleCare and they told me that an Internet connection was required. I tried it anyways. Once the rented movie is fully downloaded onto your iPad, it will appear in the Videos app, in the Rentals section. From there, even if you turn the airplane mode on, you should be able to press the play button and watch the movie. Note that I rented the movie in HD format and that I use the iPad 3rd generation.
    Hope this helps,
    Cheers,

    As long as the films have been fully downloaded then you should be able to watch them without an internet connection.

  • Wh can't I burn a disk with songs downloaded from itunes?  It won't let me burn MP3 songs

    I downloaded some songs from itunes and tried to burn them to a disk.  When I tried to burn them as MP3 I got a message that the songs downloaded from Itunes can't be burned as MP3.  Because I paid for the songs I'd like to be ablet o burn them to a disk.  Any solutions?

    The songs downloaded from the iTunes Store are in AAC format.  If you wish to use them for an MP3 disc, you need to create an MP3 version using these instructions:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550
    Note that the conversion process creates a new MP3 version, but leaves the original in the playlist.  You can replace it manually.

  • HT1657 Can I watch a movie that is downloaded on my iPad anywhere I want

    When I rent a movie can I watch it any where

    As long as the film has been fully downloaded then you shouldn't need to to be online in order to watch it - so yes.

  • Can't watch rented movies on iPad

    because my internet connection is so much better on my laptop than on my iPad, I rented two movies for an upcoming trip and when I tried to transfer them to my iPad, I can't.  I'm getting an error that you must watch the movies on the device where they were downloaded.
    I would like to find out if I can cancel the movie rentals so I can try downloading them directly to my iPad.

    Unless someone else has a suggestion, you'll need to go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • HT1657 Can I watch rented movies on a plain

    Can I watch a rented movie on a flight?

    Yes.
    But be aware, "you have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and 24 hours (in the US) or 48 hours (elsewhere) after you've started viewing to finish it. Once the rental period expires, the movie will disappear from your iTunes library."

  • Can I watch a movie on my HDTV played from my laptop?

    It seems like it's IMPOSSIBLE. I don't have words to say how frustrated I am to have this set. I just bought a HDTV so I will not watch my movies on the laptop anymore. I thought it would be something very straight forward to have everything configured. How was I mistaken.
    I have a Macbook Air from the late 2011. I bought a common thunderbolt adapter to HDMI and the cable from the first store I found selling this kind of accessories. I got home and plugged everything and then... Nothing happens. Some research on google and I found out I was not the only one with the same issue. It was recommended I would get the "apple certified" Moshi adapter. 50 bucks. I thought, Ok, it's not cheap but it will solve my problem. Got home, plugged the whole thing and then... Nothing happens. I was already very upset at this point. I spent another day without being able to watch anything. So I got back to the apple store the next day and told them it was not working. The guy helping me out was clueless. I was already very impatient and thought I will get the Apple TV because that cannot go wrong. How was I mistaken. Got home. Plugged everything... And it works... Kind of. I tried turning my Airplay and played with VLC a movie I had on my hard disk. It started well but my happiness didn't hold for long. I started to have lots of lags on image and sound and my joy started to fade. Again, I googled the issue and NOT for my surprise, lots of people had the same issue, AGAIN. Lots of suggestions were made and I found one link ( Resolve issues with AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring from iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support ) It is recommended to bring the router to the same room where the laptop and TV were. I just did that. For my surprise or maybe not, the lag became waaaay worse and the signal between apple tv and router became even worse (how is this even possible?!?! before on the settings / network were showing four small filled circles. Now shows only 2).
    Tomorrow (and another day will pass), I will go to a store to buy a ethernet cable to plug router to apple TV directly and see what happens. If that doesn't work, can anyone recommend me a store which they still sell old VHS players? Thanks!!!!
    P.S.: if anyone can give me any help  before I throw this in the garbage can, that would be awesome. Thanks!

  • When I click on video it is stuck on one tv show, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't access any other video that I downloaded from iTunes onto my iPad 2. How do I troubleshoot?

    The video on my iPad 2 is frozen on a tv show, although it will play the tv show until the end. At the end, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't see the other movies that I've downloaded. I've shut down a few times but it reverts to the same thing. How can I re-set the video feature or do what is necessary to get it working again?

    Have you tried resetting the iPad:
    Reset iPad:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
