HT1657 Moving Rental movies away from computer

I rented two movies but have room to move only one at a time-or have to erase everything else on my iPad . . . don't want to do that. Can I access my iTunes when I'm away from another computer to move the other rented movie to my iPad?

I think you are confused. You did not buy a rental, rentals are only rented. The copyright owners still own the content. This is why they have the right to delete it after expiry.
Of course Apple is aware of this, they had no choice if they wanted to offer this in the store.

HT1551 I ordered a rental movie on my computer and want to watch it on my 1st generation apple TV and it is not showing up there...any suggestions?

I ordered a rental movie on my computer and want to watch it on my 1st generation apple TV and it is not showing up there...any suggestions?

I had same problem last night with a movie rental not showing up under the 'Rented' tab in iTunes/Movies on my iMac: as I had no other rentals, there was no 'Rented' tab at all.
In iTunes 11, the Downloads icon only appears next to the Search bar while there is an active download. Once any downloads are finished, the icon disappears. I had no icon so I had to assume the downloading had finished (in the previous UI you could check download progress even after they had finished).
My movie rental did, however, show up under 'Rented Movies' under the 'Movies' tab in iTunes/Devices/(select any i/device) so I knew it was somewhere in my iTunes. Yet, we couldn't access it via Apple TV.
I fiddle around for a bit, restarting iTunes, restarting the iMac, to no avail. Then I did a little housekeeping and moved a different movie I'd imported awhile ago, from the 'Home Videos' tab under iTunes/Movies. Under File/Get Info, the 'Media Kind' was incorrectly set to 'Home Video' so I changed it to 'Movie'. Thus the file was moved over into the Movies tab. Hey Presto! The Rented tab suddenly showed up, and there was my rented movie!
This is the second time a movie rental did not show up after downloading. Unfortunately my husband initiated the download so we figured he must've messed up somehow as he's not as familiar with iTunes as me. Hence we opted to download the movie under a different iTunes account, which worked the second time with no problem. Needless to say the invoice for the original download had no problem in finding us, hence we were effectively being charged twice for the same movie! We have to contact apple support (such a hassle) but hopefully they will understand the issue (that's the difficult bit) and they are usually good at refunding when they finally accept the customer is genuine in their claim.
In case anyone is tempted to critique my method, we download rentals through iTune on our computer as we had too many problems trying to rent via Apple TV. Often the movie was not available to watch for many hours after it was rented, even though we'd start 'download' halfway through the day and sit down at night to watch it! We have also had problems with movies that kept stopping during viewing because it wasn't streaming fast enough. We'd give some time and come back to viewing, only to encounter the same. One time we gave gave up and tried again the next evening, only to find the movie expired. There is meant to be 48 hours after you've started viewing to resume watching a movie. Apple's only response to this was to advise we needed a broadband internet connection to stream the movie - this was despite me already telling them we have broadband.
Anyway, I hope this helps anyone experiencing similar issues with movie downloads.

Hi ..

Is there a way to actaully talk to someone at apple whereby it doesn't cost money? I downloaded an app and now the stupid phone says that there is compass interference and to move away from the interference. Well, I am in the middle of a field. Now what?

Is there actually a way to talk to a service person at Apple where you don't have to shell out money? I downloaded an app that cost $9.99 and when I tried to use it I get a message that says there is compass interference and to move away from the interference or wave the phone in a figure 8 pattern. Well, now I have a sore arm from constant waving out in the middle of a field and it appears that is going to cost $29 to talk to a person. Does anyone have any idea why this is occuring? As a side note, I can use a normal compass with no issues so it is the phone. From a customer perspective, this is poor customer service.

First of all, an idle threat is one that a person has no intention of carrying out. In the past 16 months that I have had this phone I have become less and less satisfied and found that it is like much of today's technology....over rated and under performing. The one thing that I have never been accused of is not wanting, or not giving help but when a company makes itself unavailable to resolve issues and leaves it to forums run by users helping users, it speaks more about the company than anything else they could do. As I said, I do not make idle threats and I did not threaten you in any way. Guess I'll call this topic done with as it is not and was not the intent to get a war started

Another way is via Photo Stream. The following gives more details and the section titled "When do photos upload to Photo Stream" gives instructions on how to manually control which pictures upload from a computer to an iPhone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486

How do i move songs from computer to ipod

how do i move songs from computer to ipod

Maybe I did it wrong, but I tried that, and nothing changed. I bought the songs on iTunes, not through my iPod...but thank you anyway. I also tried the "manage music manually" setting on my iPod and nothing changed either. What should I see when I try that?

HT1296 How to move audiobook from computer iTunes to iPad 2? Thank you.

How can I move audiobook from computer iTunes to iPad 2? Thank you.

Connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Books - if you select that tab you can then select which of the audiobooks that you have on your computer's iTunes to sync to the iPad's Music app (when you have audiobooks on the iPad you should get an Audiobooks option under the More button at the bottom of the Music app).

New to the MacAir. Moved documents and photos from computer to flash drive. How do I now move to Mac? And how do I drag and drop?

New to the Mac and not finding manual helpful. Did not want to move everything from my old computer so just put the phots and documents I wanted on a thumb drive but don't know how to now move them onto the computer. Something talks of drag and drop but it won't move.
thank you
Jeanne

Understood, ... go into FINDER at top then PREFERENCES then GENERAL tab
then check "hard disks" and "external disks"
THIS WILL PUT A HD ICON ON YOUR DESKTOP YOU CAN OPEN AND DRAG AND DROP FILES TO (or from)
THEN verify the format of your external HD
go to DISK UTILITY and verify what it says your HD is formatted as under the "ERASE" tab
HFS+ above is the "mac format" however do NOT erase / format the HD, since this will erase it.....UNLESS you want to do this
Format (erase) it in "mac osx Extended journaled"
AFTER THIS YOU CAN DRAG AND DROP FILES AS YOU LIKE

I need to transfer all photos to an external hard drive. Many photos have been moved around or deleted from computer hard drive, but still have a very full hard disk. Are the photos with questionmarks in Lightroom still taking up hard disk space? I'm so l

Hi folks,
My hard disk is full. I already moved lots of photos from other folders on the hard disk to other external hard drives, so there are a lot of question marks in Lightroom. So, are those photos still taking up room on the computer hard disk? I want to move everything I have in Lightroom off of the computer to another external hard drive, in hopes that will free up space. I watched a tutorial, and read some things about it, but I need simple instructions please.

I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation: What are Local Snapshots? http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

Movie streaming from computer not working after 6.0 upgrade

After the ATV 6.0 upgrade, video streaming from computer stopped working.
I'm trying to watch a movie from my computer and ATV is just sitting and buffering.
If I try and watch a preview from the video rental, it is just buffering as well.
iTunes radio is not loading.
I have the latest update of iTunes.
Regular mirroring works fine and music from the MacBook computer is working fine.
Everything worked fine before the 6.0 upgrade.

I have an RM-507 N97 as well, upgraded to v20 firmware and with the GPS antenna factory fix.
It appears that the firmware upgrade changes something between the MAPS app, the MAP data and the GPS drivers which causes this issue.
Recommended course of action is to delete and reinstall map data using PC Suite or Ovi Suite.
ps. There is another apparent problem that can cause lack of GPS fix which is currently under investigation. If your N97 is "hot" (i.e. just after charging or long periods of continuous display activity), you may have problems getting a GPS fix. Also, if you run the MAPS app for a long period of time with display active, you may see loss of fix problems.

Moving Photo/Movie gallary from Mobile me to icloud then sending pics to icloud from iphoto?

Hi,
I was/am a mobileme subscriber and have many photo albums and movies in my mobileme gallery.
I have a couple of questions:
- How do I transfer my existing photo/movie gallery from mobileme to icloud?
- How do I setup my iphoto 11 to send photos to icloud from the share button in the bottom RH corner? It still has share with mobileme in the selctions and when I try to share it fails?
Thanks,
Steve.

- How do I transfer my existing photo/movie gallery from mobileme to icloud?
What happens to the pictures that I’ve posted to my MobileMe Gallery?
You can continue using MobileMe Gallery through June 30, 2012, even after moving to iCloud. You should save copies of all photos published to your Gallery before that date. If you have a Mac, it is likely that most of your Gallery photos are already in iPhoto. If not, you can sync the Gallery photos to your iPhoto library. You can also download your photos and movies from the web. Please read this article for details.
From here > Apple - MobileMe - MobileMe transition and iCloud
How do I setup my iphoto 11 to send photos to icloud
With iCloud setup your Mac, open System Preferences > iCloud. Make sure Photo Stream is selected.
