HT1657 how do you move a movie rental from one computer to another computer

I rented a movie from iTunes and downloaded it to my Macbook Air.
I now want to watch it on my iMac, but it tells me its authorized to play on another computer.
FAQ says I need to move it from one computer to another.
How do I do this?

You may be able to move it by syncing it to an iPod or iOS device capable of playing it and then using the Transfer Purchases function; it won't play on the destination computer if moved in the normal way.
If it can't be moved that way, no.
If the MacBook Air isn't usable, ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • How do you change the podcast feed from one website to another?

    Right now I'm using www.podstrike.com.
    But I ran out of storage there, so I want to switch to www.mypodcast.com.
    How can I do that, while maintaining the hundreds of subscribers I have?
    Thanks!

    Birdhunter,
    You have 3 options,
    1. login to itunes on the new computer and under store hit check for available downloads and that will download all purchases.
    2. Home share your files from the old computer to the new one under the advanced tab using the same itunes account and drag and drop.
    3. If the purchase music is on a mobile device (i.e. iphone,ipod touch, ipad) plug it into the new computer and right click on the device in itunes and hit "transfer purchases"
    Hope this helps!

  • How do you copy paste a thumbnail from one file to another in Mavericks

    I used to be able to do a copy/paste and duplicate in the thumbnails...how do I do now in Maverick?

    In the Pages and Numbers applications, the thumbnail view of my document no longer allows me to re-arrange, duplicate or otherwise edit the thumbnails. The fact that I can't right click on the thumbnails to manage the pages are one thing, but the fact that I can't even drag and drop the order of pages is unbelievable. Suggestions?

    How can I move someone's hair from one photo to another and place it on another person? I have gone through every instructional video you have and have not been able to master this

    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the hair from to add to the picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the hair. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the hair to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position the hair from picture B.
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and the hair (B) on a separate layer.

  • How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?

    How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?  I set up my itunes account in the United States and now I live in England.  I would like to transfer my purchases from my US account to my British account and then download them onto my new ipod.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and I have updated my Windows 7 operating system.  I have tried to get in touch with apple and the advisor said he could not help me.  Ideas? 

    Before you change the country, note the following:
    - you must use any remaining store credit on your account
    - download all purchased content
    - ensure you have no current rentals(if you do, you'll have to wait for them to expire)
    - provide a new payment(such as a credit or debit card) associated with a valid billing address in the UK or an iTunes Gift Card purchased in the UK
    - content purchased from the iTunes Store is country-specific. If you wish to upgrade any of your iTunes Store content to iTunes Plus, you'll need to do this before you change countries. The content you purchased while your account was set to the previous country will not be eligible for upgrade once you've changed countries.
    - after you change countries, you will no longer receive application update notifications in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country. However, you'll still receive update notifications on your iOS device for any applications installed on it. In addition, you'll be able to download previously purchased applications again for free if they are available on your new country's store. You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased application is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again for free.
    - If you have an iTunes Match subscription, you can't change countries until the subscription has expired.
    - If you have purchased a Season Pass, you cannot change the country associated with your account until that season is done airing and the last episode of the season has been added to the iTunes Store.
    Taking the above into consideration, here's how to change your country:
    1. Open iTunes and click Sign In.
    2. Enter your iTunes Store account name and password, then click Account Info.
    3. On the Apple Account Information page, click Change Country or Region.
    4. Enter the updated information and save your changes.

  • How do i move itunes and music from one pc to another?

    All - i need to move all my music from one pc to another - does anyone know how to do this? i am not very technically minded and ever time i try to look it up i get very confused! thanks in advance.

    I set up a home network and transferred it using that. See if you can get a PC-savvy friend to help you, or hire someone to do this. It is nearly impossible to talk someone through this over the internet.
    Windows has some built-in helps to tell you how to set up a home network and turn on file sharing. If you don't understand that, get someone to help!

  • How do I move an app icon from one page to another?

    I would like to organize my Ipad2 but can figure out how to move the app icon from one page to another.

    Tap and hold down on an app icon until it wiggles. Then hold down on the icon and drag it about halfway over to the next screen and just hold it there for a second or two and the app will jump to the next page. Do it slowly and just hold the app on the edge of the screen. Don't try to drag it over quickly. It takes a little practice.
    Tap the home button when you are done and the apps will stop wiggling.

  • How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

    How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

    I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
    If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested.  If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library.  Not the same as the other methods.
    The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.

    How do I reorganize my photos on iPad 2?  I need to move (not copy) photos from one album to another.  When I use the copy function to another album, and then try to delete an image from the original album, the system wants to delete the photos from all albums.  Please help.

    You can't do it directly on the iPad - the new album functionality basically only allows you to copy photos into those new albums, you can't move them. The way that I think of it as working is that you are just creating pointers to the photos in those new albums, so if you then delete the original photo on the iPad you therefore automatically delete all the pointers to it.
    If you want to re-organise your albums then you will need to do it on your computer and then sync those albums over to the iPad

    The Imap account does not need to be moved, sign in on the new machine, your mail will be there.
    Does this mean even though these mails had been downloaded to the first Mac, they are still stored online too
    Yes, Imap systems store all mail on the server, all connected clients are synchronized to the server (the mail itself stays on the server)
    ... regarding the POP accounts. Do you simply want the contents are or you planning on continued use of these accounts on the new machine?
    Continued use.
    Export each mailbox from the old machine to the desktop, to do so select a mailbox, rght click and choose Export, repeat for all others. Move the mailboxes to the new machine'sdesktop.
    I suggest setting up the new accounts before importing the mail from the old machine.
    In mail choose File>Import Mailboxes, choose the ones on the desktop (one at a time) a new mailbox will appear in Mail called Imported, you can move mail from there back to the correct mailbox in the POP accounts.

  • Move users and schemas from one instance to another

    Hi, I'm starting out in a DBA position.
    My task at the moment is to move users and schemas from one instance to another.
    We're using 9.2.0.7.
    I have concluded that the following steps are necessary to move users and schemas from one instance to another :
    1. Create the needed tablespaces.
    2. Create the users that exist in the source instance
    3. Use exp to do a full export
    4. Use imp to re-create the schemas from the output file created by exp in step 3
    Am I missing anything ?
    Thanks,
    Gabriel

    3. Use exp to do a full exportInstead of doing a FULL export just export the users you want to move and imp that in other database using FROMUSER & TOUSER parameter.
