HT1657 Rented movie stops playing saying "unable to download"

Rented "Dallas Buyers Club" and it stopped playing with 20 minutes left to go! "Unable to play" pops up on the screen. Tried to stop & go back to the same time but same thing happened 4 times. How do I get store credit?

Check speedtest.net to see if connection is adequete.
Check istumbler or net netstumbler to verify any network interference
Make sure DNS is set correctly (settings - general - network - configure DNS - automatic)

  • HT201272 This method is exactly how I'm trying to get my music on my new iPod touch, it starts downloading but then stop and says unable to download at this time. What the **** is going on ?

    Try going to Settings>Store and sign out and sign back in.
    It also could be due to an Apple server problem. and yu will just have to wait and try again.

  • HT1657 Why does my rented movie stop playing randomly throughout the playback?

    Why does my rented movie stop throughout the viewing period? This is so irritating while trying to watch I have to keep pressing the play icon to get it to play at all! Anyone have any info on why this is happening on my IPAD2?

    Hi fiercestorm,
    It is possible that the video file of this movie has become corrupted. If it was purchased from iTune, and is still available in the iTunes Store for your region, you can delete it and download it again from the store. See this article -

  • HT204370 Rented movie stopped playing

    I was watching a rented movie thru Apple TV and it stopped playing with a message that Apple TV was not connected to the internet. I check everything and it is fine. How can I restart a partially watched rented movie? All I can find is the option to rent it again.

    Yes you'll get charged.
    If you're in US you have 30 days to START watching but once you do you have 24 hours to watch - too short IMO.
    In UK you have 48 hours to watch after choosing play.
    Poor experience regardless - raise a query ticket via itunes store support or through your itunes account pages.

  • Apple TV - rented movie, stopped midway, now can't watch 2nd half.

    Apple TV - rented movie, stopped midway, now can't watch 2nd half.
    No option to "return to rented movie" - screen only says "go to Settings, find Downloads, then Download" or something similar.
    ***? I went to Settings and there is NO Downloads option. Anywhere!
    I think Apple is losing it. FIrst my iPhone 4S, which I was tricked into loading the new operating system which is HORRIBLE. Am now looking at moving back to Android. And now Apple TV seems screwed up. Jesus, is this the end?

    If you rent it on your Apple TV then that is the only place that you can watch it - from the HT1657 page that you posted from :
    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.
    Why it's like that I don't know, I don't think that Apple have said.

  • While watching an iTunes movie from my Apple TV, why does my movie stop playing at the 1 hour mark?  I'm assuming I have a setting causing this to happen, but I have no idea what setting needs to be changed.  Can someone help me?

    While watching an iTunes movie from my Apple TV, why does my movie stop playing at the 1 hour mark?  I'm assuming I have a setting causing this to happen, but I have no idea what setting needs to be changed.  Can someone help me?

    It's right at an hour (consistently), but the computer goes to sleep prior to that. It's as if iTunes goes to sleep. Also, it wasn't always this way. Originally, the movies played through without interruption. At some point, I guess a setting was changed, and now I only get an hour. Also. My energy settings are set to go to sleep at 10 minutes.

  • When I try to play a rented movie on Apple TV, it starts downloading again

    WWhen I try to play a rented movie on Apple TV, it starts downloading again.

    There is no accessible storage on Apple TV, so it will need to load each time. If you wish to store then rent on computer and use home sharing to view on Apple TV.
