HT1657 When you rent a movie from iTunes does it need to be on coverflow and not grid?
I can't watch any TV shows/Movies/Music Videos unless there on my Ipod . The picture shows up fragmented and when the video does show up the sound is distored.
If you rented it on your iPad then it should have downloaded into its Videos app, and you should be able to watch it without being online - though some people have posted that they need to be online when first starting to watch a rental, so you may want to watch a few seconds whilst you have internet connection (you have 24 hours if you are in the US, 48 hours elsewhere, after starting to watch a rental before it expires).

That would be great if someome had thanswer to this question on downloaded movie rentals and why the downloads don't seem to come through even though they charge your credit card. Any advice would be appreciated.

I am trying to rent a movie from iTunes. It started to download in HD and I don't have enough room on my basic iPad 2. How do I cancel the download and re download it in SD?
Try downloading movie on your computer (iTune).

I have rented a movie from Itunes, but when I try to watch it it pauses itself, then skips to the next scene...can anyone tell me why and as I have paid money for this shouldn't I at least be able to watch without any hiccups?
You've tried restarting the film ? If it still skips then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. -

i rented a movie from itunes. i was on a plane when i tried to access it...but got an error message saying "cannot access itunes store". i had a wifi connection but had to purchase internet to watch the movie on the plane. never had this problem with my ipad and never have it when i download tv shows. what's the deal with movies?
It's not normal, presuming that the movie downloaded completely, but it has come up from time to time. I've not been able to figure out from the various posts why rentals work for most but in some cases insist on a connection to the iTunes store. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Perhaps they can provide an explanation, though you may just get canned and rather inapplicable replies about how to rent or download.

As a new user of Apple TV, I need some assistance.When I rent a movie on iTunes and download for viewing later, say a day or two later, It seems to load itself all over again with a msg saying ready to view in 25 mins ! So having waited the 25 mins movie starts and runs for maybe 1 hour and the pauses for maybe 5 mins while it seems to load again . any help appreciated
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you use the Apple TV for something else or turn it off it will erase whatever is on it's drive. If you are going to download content for later viewing you might consider doing it on the computer, downloads don't disappear until they expire and you can watch them as many times as you want. -
after i rented a movie from itunes, i saw it download (i think) but now can't find it to play! where do i look to find downloaded itunes movies? help!
If you select the Movies part of your iTunes library, is there a Rentals tab on it ?

If I rent a movie from iTunes do I need wifi to watch it
If I rent a movie from iTunes can I watch it without wifi
iTunes store downloads movies to your iDevice, directly, over Wifi.
Once the movie or TV show downloads from the iTunes Store from over the Internet via Wifi, you should be able to watch it without needing any WiFi connection.
Try this by completely downloading a movie to your iDevice, turn off Wifi in the iOS Settings app, then try playing the movie. -
I rented the new Thor film, which took an hour to download and has been processing ever since. This was 12 hours ago. My internet connection is fine as my wifi is working for everything else, what do I do?
i have the same trouble. I downloaded a movie, now i cannot find it in my library and i don't have a rental tab nor do i find it under any other tabs in the itunes library. When i try to download it again it asks me if i want to rent it again?

HT1296 When I rent a movie from iTunes store, it will not transfer to my iPad. Why?
I have owned my iPad for a year. I have rented a number of movies in that time. Recently, my last four movies appear to transfer to the iPad, but when I attempt to play them, they will not play. Any ideas?
You should be able to move it to your iPad.

I would like to rent a movie from iTunes on one of my apple tv's and would like to know if I can watch that movie rental on another apple tv on the same network. I used to rent movies on my Mac and was able to watch on different apple tv through home-sharing.
Hey hskcheng,
Movies rented on an Apple TV can not be transferred to a different device. See this article for reference -

I rented a movie from iTunes. When I go to watch; it says download???
I rented a movie from iTunes for my iPad 3rd Gen. I went to the video app like usual. Selected to watch, and it said- I've already purchased it, but I have to go to downloads to download it. What the heck does that mean? Where do I go. It's taking me longer to figure this out; then would've been to watch the movie. Please help! I'd really appreciate it
Hello don_ristows_computer,
The following article provides steps that can help get your rental downloaded to your iPad.

when you rent a movie through apple tv should i be able to get it on my mac and iPad2 through itunes
Welcome to the Apple Community.
No, if you rent a movie on anything other than your computer it can only be watched on that device. If you want to watch it on multiple devices, rent it on the computer then it can be transferred between devices, but can't be moved to more than one device at a time. -
Why can't I rent a movie from iTunes on my Macbook Pro?
I am trying to rent a movie from iTunes on my Macbook Pro but when I click on the gray rent movie button it does NOTHING, like I never clicked on it. I am signed in, I authorized the computer and have rented movies in the past. I do have OS X 10.5.8 and iTunes 10.6.3(25) because I haven't purchased new software to upgrade something that works just fine, until now. I'm not sure if the software is the problem because I have rented movies in the past 6 months. I have just tried to purchase other movies, and even songs, and it doesn't do anything when I click the gray price to purchase the song. Please help.
Same exact thing just started happening to me. Same issues as you. I have tried restarting itunes and reinstalling many times with no luck at all.
