HT201272 Can't download iCloud movies to my iPad

I redeemed Digital Copies of several movies to my iCloud via my Mac.  Now I want to download some to my kids' iPads, but no "download" button appears even though the movie is listed as "purchased" in my iTunes account.  Instead of a little cloud with an arrow pointing down, there is a symbol that looks like this:  (_|_) 

A fair number of other people have posted about the same problem over the last few days, I assume that there is a problem at Apple's end which they need to fix.
You could try logging out of your accont on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that makes any difference.

  • HT4061 Can you download a movie to your ipad if you don't have it with you?

    Can you download a movie to your ipad if you don't have it physically with you. I'm going out of town tomorrow and want to download a movie now, but my Ipad is at home.

    No you cannot.

  • How can I download a movie to my ipad if it's not purchased from itunes?

    How can i download a movie to my ipad if I don't purchase it from itunes?  basically, I want to buy a movie but need it for multiple venues:  ipad, home blu ray, etc.  Any suggestions are welcome!
    thanks, H

    You'll have to use 3rd Party software to convert the movies into an readable format. Check this article:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2729
    After that you can add the movie to your iTunes library and sync it to your device.

  • I can't download itunes movies to my iPad; it doesn't recognize the wifi.

    I am trying to download a movie to my iPad.  I receive an error message each time telling me I must be connected to Wifi; however, I am connected.  My daughter is trying on our Apple TV and computer and receives the same error message.  We just performed the 5.1 update.  Could this be the problem?  Some internal conflict with the software?

    Try it again now.  This was a system error on Apple's end....the message had nothing to do with what was wrong (and there was nothing wrong with your setup or system).
    This started working again at about 8pm CST for me.
    This affected rentals and purchases (for me it was on iTunes through my computer hard wired to a network).
    If you look at the error message you'll notice that its a mix of upper case and lower case words and the message itself actually doesn't make much sense - my guess is that it was a meaningless error message created by developers during testing before....just a guess.

  • How can I download a movie onto my iPad without the iTunes extras or in  SD?

    I have been trying to download or transfer some of my movies to my iPad, but with all the new iTunes extras some of the movies are 5GB or more now which is crazy. Is there a way to transfer the movies without these features, so that I have more space?

    I had the same question as was asked here, and I see that if I turn off my Wi-Fi on my iPad I can no longer access the iTunes Extras. However, if the extras are streaming-based, why is the file size of movies with Extras so much larger than those without? Any other HD movie with a similar running time is between 1.5 and 2.5GB, all with Extras are between 3.5 and 5GB. The problem isn't the Extras, its the lack of space on my iPad.

  • HT4095 What happens if I can't download a movie to my iPad but I've been charged for it?

    Help! I tried to download a rental but my iPad had no space for it. Then I couldn't cancel the rental and I've been charged for it even when I haven't downloaded it and haven't seen it. What can I do?

    Here are a couple of things that you can try.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again.

  • Why can I download some movies to my iPad but not my PC?

    I have purchased several movies on iTunes.  However, more then a couple will download fine to my iPad or iPhone but will not download to my iTunes on my PC.  Why is this.  How can I fix this?  I want to save them to my harddrive so if I ever loose internet or Apple ever goes under I still have my purchases.  Any solutions?

    Hello RB1Kenobi
    Check to make sure they are not on the computer already. You can transfer the purchases from your iPad to your computer. Double check with the steps outlined in the articles below to ensure that you get your movies to your computer.

  • How can i download a movie onto a ipad mini that is not set up using my apple id without deleting everything on the ipad?

    I have a Ipad mini that is set up on another Apple ID that is different than mine. I wish to know if it is possible for me to downlaod a movie onto it without having to remove everything off it.

    I had the same question as was asked here, and I see that if I turn off my Wi-Fi on my iPad I can no longer access the iTunes Extras.

  • Hi,  I am trying to find out if i can download a movie to my Ipad.

    I have a movie that i have downloaded using Itunes on my IMac at home.  But I forgot to sync the Ipad to the Mac.
    Now i would like to watch the movie BUT i am away for a period of time and need to down load it to my IPad direct.
    When i have tried to do this Itunes wants to charge me again for a movie I have already bought.
    IS there a way of downloading a movie to the IPad with out paying again. Icloud doesn't want to work on it either.
    Many Thanks Peeps
    P.

    Unless you are in the US with a US iTunes account then you can't re-download films for free (and not all film studios are currently allowing their films to be re-downloaded).

  • I downloaded 2 movies on my ipad. Where can I find them?

    I downloaded 2 movies on my ipad. Where can I find them?

    In the video icon on your homescreen (on the ipad)
    If not, it may be in icloud (just look at the recent purchases in itunes)

  • Can I download a movie on more than one computer?

    I don't really know if I asked my question right, so I'm just going to ask it in here.
    My computer recently broke down and I am now using the computer of my sister until mine is fixed. I wanted to download some movies on her computer so I can put them on my own computer when I get back. Is that possible? Or do I have to purchase it again? What I want to know in a nut shell is if it is possible to buy movies/tv shows on the computer of my sister (with my own iTunes account) and be able to download them again when I have my own computer back.ng
    I was also wondering if this: If I download a HD Movie on my iPhone 4, is it possible to put it on my iPad as well? Because my sister's computer can't download HD movies from the store and I wanted to download it on my iPhone 4, but was wondering if I would be able to put it on my iPad, which I will get in about two months.
    I hope someone can help me, I'm pretty new to the iTunes store and such
    Thanks in advance!

    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your purchases.
    You cannot download it again, but you can copy it and put it wherever you like.

  • How can I download a movie bought in itunes in my new ipod?

    I bought couple of movies about a year ago for my iPod touch 3G but it got broken so I´ve got me a new one, the problem now it´s that I can´t download the movies,  iTunes is asking me to pay for them again!  The rest of my apps and music it´s already there, just my videos.    Can someone help me, please?

    Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time. You can see what content you can download here:

    You can also re-download content using your iPod touch.

  • HT1657 Once a rented movie is downloaded do I need an Internet connection to view it?  For example can I download a movie and watch it on a flight?

    Once a rented movie is downloaded do I need an Internet connection to view it?  For example can I download a movie and watch it on a flight?

    Please be aware of the movie rental's time limitation that you have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and once you start watching it, you have 24 hours to finish watching it. You may watch it as many times as you like during those 24 hours. It may be helpful to make sure the download completes successfully before you begin watching the movie.
    Once the download is complete you can watch it without an Internet connection. However, an Internet connection to the iTunes Store is required to authorize playback or activate the 24 hours time-limit of movie rentals. This means, only during the starting of the movie. Once you have started playing the movie rental, internet connection is not required. You can play anywhere without internet connection.

    Note: 24 hours time limit is for United States customer only, while 48 hours for other countries.
