HT1657 how to move a rented movie

How do i move a rented movie to another computer.

It needs to be synced to an iPod or similar device and then moved with the Transfer Purchases function. If it's moved directly from one computer to another, it won't play there.

Settings - iTunes - check for rental
Once you press play you have 24/48hrs (depending on region) to view. Accessing other content or turning the device off will flush the movie, and it will need to reload

HT1657 How do I transfer rented movies from iPad to Apple TV

The method is exactly the same as in previous versions of iTunes:

The only difference now is that by default the iPad will appear as a button at the upper-right of iTunes:
Click that all all should then work as per the directions. You can also go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" and iTunes 11 will then look substantially like earlier versions.

HT1657 How long does the rented movie have to play before the 24 hour limit starts?

I hit play on my rental before I was ready to watch. How far into the movie before the 24 hour limit starts?

As far as I know the clock starts immediately you start playing it. You should be able to see how long you have left - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
On your device, the time remaining for you to finish watching the movie appears near the movie title.
I assume that you are in the US ? In other countries you have 48 hours from when you start watching it, not 24

how long does a rented movie last?
when i rent the movie in my pc, can i put it into my ipad and then back to my pc?

Yu can copy it to your iPad from your computer, but if you rent it directly on the iPad then you can't copy it off - from here :
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
From when you rent a movie you have 30 days in which to watch it, but once you start watching it you have 48 hours to finish watching it (24 hours in the US) - you can watch it as many times as like within those 48 (or 24) hours.

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't move a rented movie to Apple TV

I recently rented a movie on ITunes and easily transferred it from my PC to my first generation Apple TV. Two weeks later I have rented another movie and cannot transfer it. Has another version of ITunes been released in he meantime? I go into Rented and then File but nothing appears in devices from the drop down box. I am unable to sync the TV. I rarely use Icloud but have set up an account. However this does not appear on the Apple TV. Does this mean Icloud can only be accessed on the latest generation Apple TVs. In a nutshell how do I move a rented movie from my (non Mac) PC to my Apple TV?

Is it the little black box? If yes then it is the 2nd model. It won't show up in iTunes as there is no syncing involved. The only time it does is when you connect and need to restore the device.
You need to enable home sharing in iTunes and on ATV

My Mac will not "move" my rented movie to Apple TV so I can view it on my TV. It always moves it back to my Mac.

My Mac will not "move" my rented movie to my 1st generation Apple TV so I can view it on my TV. It always moves it back to my Mac when I click to "apply" the changes. This has never happened before. Any help would be appreciated.

Are you sure all those files that were on that drive are still on that drive. Any time you format a drive, especially when you change the format, everything is erased from the drive.
to answer your question, No there isn't a way to remove the Mac fomatting and retain files on the drive. you would need to copy all of them to some other drive first then reformat the drive.

I cant move my rented movie to my apple tv first generation, i cant move my rented movie to my apple tv first generation

i cant move my rented movie to my apple tv 1st generation. keeps saying something about firewall but i dont have any security turned on... helppp

Kelly - If you just opened the AppleTV1, go to Settings>About and check the software version.
Last software made was 3.02 (one of the better ones).
If lower, update it to that, but make a note of what it shipped with in case you ever factory restore it.
Have you configured ATV1 for LAN/internet access (ethernet by simply plugging in, wi-fi by adding wi-fi details in settings).? If connected to internet you should be able to access YouTube on it.
ATV1 does not use Home Sharing. iTunes computer and AppleTV1 need to be on the same LAN.
To set it up for itunes use you must 'register' it with iTunes with a numeric code. Ideally the main computer used with it should be registered for 'syncing'. Have you added a computer iTunes library under the AppleTV's Settings>Computers menu?
You need to highlight the top entry on this page, press select which should give a numeric code. You then go to itunes on the computer and look for an AppleTV under Devices on the left, select and enter the code. You can then configure auto or custom syncing.
Once configured, locate the rental in iTunes and choose to 'move it' to the AppleTV.

HT1657 What happens when you rent movies and they don't play? How come that question is not on the list?

What happens when you rent movies and they don't play and you tried getting credit for it? I rented two movies which they were very very old movies in black & white and they both don't play. I never had this problem before even when downloading videos. Now how can I get credit for it? I contact itunes a number of times and no one has done nothing as of yet. Itunes also asked me for my order number which I sent them but still no credit.

Great question MommaBof4! This is actually something that can be completed. VZW does have the option to turn this feature on or off based upon the users request. If you would like to update this feature on your device please give us a call by dialing *611 send from your VZW device, thanks!

HT1657 Can I watch a rented movie on a flight with out wifi?

Not sure if the rented movie is downloaded do I need wifi to be able to view it inflight?

Please be aware of the movie rental's time limitation that you have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and once you start watching it, you have 24 hours to finish watching it. You may watch it as many times as you like during those 24 hours. It may be helpful to make sure the download completes successfully before you begin watching the movie.
Once the download is complete you can watch it without an Internet connection. However, an Internet connection to the iTunes Store is required to authorize playback or activate the 24 hours time-limit of movie rentals. This means, only during the starting of the movie. Once you have started playing the movie rental, internet connection is not required. You can play anywhere without internet connection.
You may need to validate the rental prior to watching so it starts the rental period timer and for that you will need an internet connection. You can probably do that by starting the rented movie while on the Airport Wifi or right before leaving home. You'll have 24 hours to watch the movie after you start it.

Note: 24 hours time limit is for United States customer only, while 48 hours for other countries.
