I purchased a rental movie on my mac and can not find it on my ipad. Where is it?

Did you sync it to your ipad?
If not, then do that.
If yes, where did you look? It belongs in the Videos app. Did you look there?

HT1657 I downloaded a rental movie but can't find it on the upgraded itunes. Old page showed "rentals", is there a tab that reads rentals or something different?

I downloaded a rental movie but can't find it on the upgraded itunes page. Old home page showed a tab that read "rentals" on the left side. Anyone know how to find that tab?

I have the same issue. Just rented a movie, and I can't find it anywhere. Where is it stored, and how do I watch it on iTunes 11.0.4 ?
I don't see the 'rented' tab anywhere, and nothing under 'purchased'.

Can rental movies be watched via Apple TV from an iPad 2?

They can be rented on the iPad and sent via airplay to the Apple TV, if that's what you are asking. They cannot be rented on the Apple TV and sent to the iPad.

Ok so i downloaded movies and now i cant find them in my library

ok so i downloaded movies and now i cant find them in my library anywhere i can find them in my account under purchaces

Can you give a few more details on what you're seeing and not seeing?
Can you see the songs listed in iTunes? With the sidebar enabled (CTRL-S in iTunes 11 if you can't see it) do your see your purchased songs listed if you select Purchased under STORE? Something like this:
If you see a list like this, right-click on one of the songs and select Get Info / Summary tab. It should show the location of the file containing the song:
(the default location will be C:\Users\user_name\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\artist_name\album_name). I'm assuming that you're not seeing this, since anything that's under Purchased should also be in your main library (Music under LIBRARY at the top of the sidebar) and you should be able to copy it into playlists, etc.
If you don't see this, can you find the music files on your computer? Again, the files should be under C:\Users\user_name\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\artist_name\album_name if you're following iTunes defaults and allowing it to organize your library. Even if that's not the case you can run Windows Explorer and search your whole computer, using the name of the song or just *.m4a as the search string. If you can find the music files but they are not listed in iTunes, you can re-import your songs into iTunes (File > Add file to Library ... or File > Add Folder to Library ...).
If you still can't find them, either in iTunes or on the computer, you may still have two options. The first would apply if you have the songs on an iPod or iPhone, the second would be to re-download (not re-purchase) from the iTunes store. You'll find tutorials in these forums for both cases. At the end of the day, though, you're encountering a problem that would be more readily addressed if you'd been maintaining a regular backup of your iTunes library.

HT1657 I downloaded a rental movie utilizing my laptop. When I went to find it via Apple TV, that is associated with my iTunes account, I couldn't see it. This has happened before and it sort of popped up later. No such luck this time. Operator error.

Help Please!!!! When I download rental movies from iTunes, via my MacBook Pro, I cannot see them to watch them on Apple TV or the MBP. Is it me or something glitchy that I have no control over? Thanks for your assistance.

Hello FeedUpUser,
Thank you for the question. When you purchase a rental, you can view it on one device at a time:
Can I play my rental on more than one device?
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.

HT1657 how to view rental movies on media player classic instead of itunes?

I rented movie but it wouldn't play full screen in itunes and wouldn't open in other players? HELP. Is it possible w/rental movies or just purchases?

I followed exactly what you advised, and it all worked. I did convert the files first that were .AVI ---> .MP4 (the audio and video came out beautifully when viewed). I organized my files around a bit, and then I went into Itunes---> Preferences---> Advanced---> Changed where I want to grab my movies from. It keep all my previous music, tv, movies, podcasts files that I had in ITunes, and just "added" the new content without disrupting anything in my Itunes at all. I LOVED IT...so simple in the end.
The files did take a while to convert, but I only had to do the ones that I had that were labeled ".AVI". The program, HAND BRAKE, allowed me to set up a "batch" and I had them converting during the afternoon and into the evening.
All in all....THANK YOU/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic__ _/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/ migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-a vail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstat ic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-ima ges/migration-img-not-avail.png
Since whenever I open my Itunes, all the movies display well, and so my APPLE TV can now view all my "content" in Itunes. I thought I was going to have to return that APPLE TV since I couldn't figure a way around it, and all in all, it wasn't all that bad of a process to convert and then change file location in preferences.
MANY THANKS and HAVE A GREAT WEEK

TS1424 Just downloaded a rental movie to my mac in SD... chose watch later ...15 min later....cannot find anywhere on this computer itunes says all available downloads have been downloaded why is this so @#$%%^ difficult!

just downloaded a rental movie and can't locate it anywhere in itunes downloads never use to be this hard not reallu worth it but would still like to watch my movie.My account info says all purchases have been downloaded.. hmmm wbere is my movie?

This is bad - I have an Apple automated response that they got my report on 12/6, 12/10 and 12/14, and I haven't heard anything from them since the 6th when I got one reply that told me to do things I tried before reporting the problem. Between the 6th and 10th I replied to their response 4 times and they ignored me, forcing me to report a problem with two more items that wont download but getting no response.
How do they get away with this kind of behavior, especially for someone with FIVE Core 2 Duo macs and thousands of dollars of of iTunes store purchases? I'm getting really ******.

HT1657 I have rented 2 movies,but i can t find them

where can i find my rental movie (already payed for) in I tunes???

Hi Crissy0126,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The rented movies should appear in your Videos app on the iPad. If you don't see them, try downloading them again on your iPad:
Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

Downloaded rental movie from iTunes cannot be transfered to new iPad

I have the new iPad. I downloaded a rental movie (Sherlock2). Tried to move it from iTunes on my mac to my new ipad, but says it can't be played on this iPad? According the specs it should be possible and the movie isn't even HD. Anyone?

Never mind. 15 minutes of research revealed that we own a 5th generation iPod, which evidently is not compatible with rentals. I am quite annoyed. Thanks Apple, for not making this clear at all in your FAQ. There should be a much more definitive description for compatibility in the FAQ, as I don't know anyone who is aware of which specific 'generation' of iPod they own. I had to go through the huge list of past and present models on the support site before figuring this out.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get a refund if we have not yet attempted to play the movie on our Windows machine that we rented the movie with?

I just exported an imovie movie but now i cant find it on my imac

it took 3 hours to export but now i cant find it anywhere on my imac

Hey,
What I would do is open up the export window again as if you are going to export the movie and see where the location is set to export the video. Then go find it on your computer. I hope that makes sense.
The iMovie Guy

I created movie using iMovies on iMac. Sent movie to iTunes on iMac. Transferred movie to iPad in iTunes. I can not find it on iPad. where should I look?

I created movie using iMovie on iMac. Sent movie to iTunes on iMac. Then sent to iPad using iTunes. I can not find it on iPad. Where should I look? When iPad is connected to iMac it shows it to be in movies. When I look under iTunes movies on iPad I get movies I can rent or buy. when I look under videos I get a blank screen

Are you looking in the Videos app? iMovie on the iPad? The Photos App? I don't use iMovie but those are the three places where you should look.

When I purchase a rental movie from the store it always downloads in the cloud as opposed to my iPad. As I'm flying tomorrow, how do I put it I my iPad to watch? Thank you!

When I purchase a movie rental, it automatically downloads to the cloud as opposed to my iPad.

When I press on the loud icon I the movie, it disappears from my rental list.
Please help.
Thank you!

Did you find a solution....very frustrating. Cheers

My ipad is struggling to download purchased or rental movies from itunes, both directly or from icloud. It has resulted in over 80GB of data been used up in a day! Help

I first had this problem a week ago, when I tried to download a movie from icloud onto my ipad. Over night 80GB had been used. From memory the message read 'Cannot downloaod this movie now'. Then last night I downloaded a rental directly from itunes onto the ipad. I was able to watch the movie last night, but did not finish it. Today my internet provider again alerted me that 70 GB had been used. So I thought i would see if the movie was still available and similiar message appeared. So to try to stop the rest of my data disappearing I have reset ipad to factory defaults and reset network. Now I am too scared to ever watch a movie with itunes again. Which is stupid as the only reason I bought the ipad over a samsung is for itunes movies. Please help. Is this a common problem, why is this happening and will I ever be able to watch a movie on the ipad?
Thanks
