HT1657 Why doesn't my rental movie download completely? iPad

I am trying to download a rental movie so I can watch later, hopefully during my flight. Movie almost completes downloading then stops and starts over.

Films that you rent and download directly on the iPad cannot then be transferred to a different device - if you want to be able to copy rentals to other devices then you need to rent and download it via your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415

HT1657 I purchased 6 ITunes rental movies on my IPad, but I can't get them to play. Please advise ASAP

I purchased rental movies for my vacation. I am on plane now. Went to Video Rentals on IPad. Pressed Play. Will not ply please advise ASAP!

Try searching for the name of one of your rentals on the iPad's spotlight search screen (pull down the centre of the home screen in iOS 7, swipe your first home screen to the right in iOS 6 and below), type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app via the taskbar and then re-open it and see if they play : double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag the Videos app's 'screen' up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
A third option if the two above don't work is a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

HT1657 Why won't my rented movie download?

I rented dark knight rises it won't play it's stuck on processing. What do I do?

Please turn off your caps lock. All caps indicates shouting, is considered rude and is difficult to read. Many will not read such posts.
If it doesn't finish downloading then just click Store>Check For Available Downloads
There is no need to keep re-buying it.

HT1657 Can I watch a rental movie in my iPad when in an airplane with the airplane mode on?

I rented a couple of movies hoping to watch them in the plane and all it says is it can not open when I try to watch.... Is there a way to watch rented movies in airplane mode?

Actually, I just called AppleCare and they told me that an Internet connection was required. I tried it anyways. Once the rented movie is fully downloaded onto your iPad, it will appear in the Videos app, in the Rentals section. From there, even if you turn the airplane mode on, you should be able to press the play button and watch the movie. Note that I rented the movie in HD format and that I use the iPad 3rd generation.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,

Why can't I purchase movies on my iPad? When I hit buy it doesn't download.

Ok. That's strange. The download should show up immediately in the lower right. Even if it is stuck, you will se the red number. So something is blocking the purchase. Take a look at setting, restrictions, and see if something there is turned on that might be blocking you.

And just in case .... You don't actually sync rental movies to the iPad....
To transfer a rented movie from iTunes, use the movies pane in iTunes. Rented movies transfer is at the top. You must have an Internet connection to transfer a rented movie. Select the "move" arrow in the direction you wish to transfer, and click the apply button at the bottom right. Rented movies can only exist on one device at a time, they do not sync like other video, but move from iTunes to the iPad.

Help! I just downloaded a rental movie to my ipad and I can't find it to play it. Any suggestions?

It belongs in the videos app.

How do I transfer rental movies from my IPAD to my Laptop?

How do I transfer rental movies from my IPAD to my MAC?

You can't.
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.

How can i transfer rental movies from my Ipad to my iTunes library before updating

how can i transfer rental movies from my Ipad to my iTunes library before updating ?

According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie or TV show on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
So I assume that you cannot use File > Transfer Purchases to copy them to your computer (though there is no harm in trying)

Why doesn't my imbedded video play on iPad?

Why doesn't my imbedded video play on iPad?

Is it running flash? Because the iPad 2 does not run flash. Or it could be a bug in the embeded video. Run the debugger and see if that helps. Good luck :-)

I have so far
restarted both computer and rebooted ipad.
both softwares are up to date on ipad and on PC
I have checked the restrictions and there doesnt appear to be any that I can see in the menu although saying that the movie selection can not even be highlighted in that menu.
I have checked in the about and although itunes syncs the movie and it shows up in the bar below as the movie taking up space..in the about in the general part of settings it refreshed but still states 0 so itunes on the PC says its on the ipad but the ipad is saying it is not on the ipad....
I'm going away on holiday next week and I was hoping to take a few rentals with me....I downloaded this one to test it out and see how well it worked so far its been frustraingly useless....im glad I never downloaded 30bux worth of movies.
I have been searching and searching the net...I have come across one other person that appears to be having the same drama as me. however he is on here on apple support but no body has replied to him and he posted 3 months ago...so I hope someone can help me

Is there anyone out there that might know whats wrong!!!!
Surely someone must be able to help

Rental Movie Download Speed Changed from 25 minutes to 10 hours

Two days ago I download two rental movies and each took about 25 minutes. Today I tried to download another rental movie and it is taking forever. If it continues at this speed, it will take about 10 days to download. My ISP is fine, I have checked my download speed and its 6.6MBps and I have not installed anything new on my PC. Please help.

I've had a few like that myself.
1. Right click on the download and chose 'Delete'. This is not ideal.
2. Get Apple tech support on live chat and have them 'nuke' it.
That should also get you back your money.
