HT1657 Rented movie was watched, but 2 hours later is missing. Where did it go?

Last night we rented The Great Gatsby. I watched the movie, my wife did not. Now she wants to watch it and we cannot find it.  Now what?

I had to sign out of my account and then sign back in. Go to settings, iTunes Store, and then you will see your account name. Select that and select sign out.
When I signed back in, I went back to movies, and found the movie I had rented. The option to PLAY was there, replacing the option to RENT. I hit play and it started from the beginning... so I fast forwarded it to the point where I left off.
Even Netflix can remember where you left off in a title.... Hope they work on this a bit more.

  • Rented movie was erased before 24 hours

    I recently rented my first movie from the itunes store for my itouch. I began watching The Darjeeling Limited at approximately 4 pm today, stopped at about 20 minutes in, then decided to plug my ipod back in to get some recent podcasts that were posted. Not only was the movie erased from my ipod unfinished, but erased from my entire library after I spent a good half an hour downloading it. Why did this happen? Was the time not allocated as 30 days or 24 hours after I begin watching it? Any input would be lovely, I'd call support but they happen to be closed and most likely will not reimburse me anyway.

    Instead of calling, email:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/browser/
    You'll get a response very quickly, and they're usually extremely helpful!

  • HT1657 Rented movie take a long time - hours - to download the second time.

    Rented a movie and when we tried to download to watch it again it took hours to download. Tried to go to 720p but this did not help. Finally gave up and let it expire. Has anyone ever had this proble?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this atwww.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • Rented movie, it took nearly an hour to download, but I can't  open it???

    Rented movie, it took nearly an hour to download, but I can't  open it???

    Actually, there seems to be a bit of a bug.  Encountered this with a couple of files my wife made.  The files were set to "open with" the new Keynote, but clicking the file brought up this error.  Right-clicking and selecting "open with..." worked correctly.  I can only assume the OS was attempting to open the file with Keynote '09 despite the file property setting.
    Probably requires a Launch Services DB reset (although I haven't actually tried it on my wife's MBA yet...since she's still "working on stuff".  So I can't confirm if it will solve the problem).

  • TS3623 Ordered a movie to rent. Was watching it then it stopped and had the timer going. Turned it off, tried to watch the next day and could not get it to play. Even after going into settings and going into iTunes Store and then rentals like it said. No

    Ordered a movie to rent. Was watching it then it stopped and had the timer thing going on forever. Stopped watching it and went to bed. Tried to watch it again the next day.It Said for us to go to settings, then iTunes Store, then ck for rentals.  Still, the timer kept working and could not continue to watch our silly movie. This has happened to us many times. VERYYYYYYYYYYYYY annoying. I am beginning to HATE Apple TV. Please advise!

    If it's stopping during the movie that could be network related. As for locating the rental, try logging out of your account and signing back in again.

    This happened to me last week when I rented a movie on iTunes. Didn't want to watch it at the time so just let it download to my MacBook Pro.  Last night I went to look for it but could not find it anywhere. This morning I tried something which worked. Open Finder then open downloads. In the search box type the name of the movie you rented and hit enter. You should then see a file folder with the name of the movie. Right click and direct it to open in iTunes. This will bring up the movie in iTunes and ask you if you want to watch. I suspect this will also work if you pause a movie, go back to it then can't find it.

    If you are positive it's not actually a 5G iPod Video, then you should be able to.

  • "Your movie was downloaded, but it may be corrupt."

    I'm trying to download the 2nd Back to the Future movie and a box will pop up. It says "Your movie was downloaded, but it may be corrupt." I have tried to re-download it but the same box pops up. I got the trilogy as a Christmas gift, so I have the redeeming code, and I don't want to have to pay for it in the iTunes store if I already have the digital copy. I've already Googled the problem and looked all over iTunes for a solution and was unsuccessful. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I closed my iTunes and redid the code and everything and it finally worked.

  • Hello, we seem to have a bug with premiere. When I save some work that I´ve been doing, close premiere and open it up there is nothing saved. But 24 hours later everything is saved. It seem that it takes almost a day for the program to get the saved data.

I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)

I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

  • I spilled a small amount of wine on my macbook pro, I know, killing myself over this! I dried it fully but 24 hours later the keys are very sticky and it won't find the Bluetooth module - everything else seems to be working fine. Thanks for any tips!

    I spilled a small amount of wine on my macbook pro keyboard, I know, killing myself over this! I dried it fully but 24 hours later the keys are very sticky and it won't find the Bluetooth module so I can't use my magic mouse - everything else seems to be working fine. Thanks for any tips!

    Your keyboard will never be right again; it needs to be replaced. There's no effective way to clean sticky stuff out of it. Your Bluetooth module may have been shorted out and destroyed, and it probably isn't dry yet after only 24 hours.
    Take your machine in for repair, and expect a hefty bill in the hundreds of dollars.

  • HT1657 Rented movie in iTunes and it won't download. It has been downloading for 2 hours now.

  • HT1657 Rented movie purchased but not downloaded

    I keep renting movies on my iPad but then when I go the the movie app, the movie appears in grey, not playable, and it says that the movie needs to be downloaded.
    However it appears nowhere neither on the iPad nor on my mac...
    Where is it?
    I paid for it and it is not viewable!!

    Got a response from apple customer service
    Besides the fact that they are reasonably nice or sent me to the FAQ section of the apple site (dooh!!) the best they could do was refund me on my 2 rented but unwatchable movies with credit for my next rentals...
    Additional frustration: I need to wait for 2 weeks for the credit to hit my account if I want to redownload these same 2 movies...
