HT204370 can i play rented downloaded movies with no internet

can i play back a rented movie on an airplane with no internet

As long as the film has been fully downloaded then you should be able to watch it whilst offline

    I have new IPad ...can't watch rented downloaded movie on my tv..error message is " The connected display is not authorized to play protected movies"... What is up with that???

    I had exact same problem and I have found a way to get round out!!!! Easy!
    So the reason it doesn't allow it to play is for security to stop piracy etc.
    Plug in the cable and VGA and aux cable and get everything set up so you are looking at the home screen.
    1) select Videos
    2) selected the film you want to watch
    3) click the little play button
    4) it will then come up with the message saying it can't play protected films blah blah blah
    5) WITHOUT clicking ok double tap the home button to bring up the multitasking bar and swipe left to reveal the control panel
    6) hold fast forward for a second or two and the movie with continue to play!
    Stay in the multi tasking bar with the control panel, The message will stay there but don't worry. Kick back and enjoy your iPad movie on the big screen:)
    I'm sure your saying thanks:) it was my pleasure realising I've outsmarted apples little security protection thing lol

  • HT3775 hello mate,could you pls tell me how can i play a downloaded movie

    hello mate,could you pls tell me how can i play a downloaded movie

    Note, if the downloaded movie is from something illegal, we won't be able to tell you.
    If it is from something legal, what source is it?
    Do you have an Intel or a PowerPC Mac?

  • Why can't I rent/buy movies with MA or R rating?

    It appears that whenever I try to rent/buy movies from iTunes Store via Apple TV or iTunes with a rating of PG, M, they work fine, but if the movie is rated MA I get error message - Can't connect to Store. Try again later. For a 35 year old man I find this censorship frustrating. Can someone shed some light on this for me? Maybe there is a parental control setting I need to change?

    This is happening to me too.
    It seems pretty random, I've found a few movies I can rent, but most come up with the same error message you've seen. The movie rating doesn't seem to be a factor for me.
    I've checked parental controls as suggested, rebooted, made sure software is up to date etc. I even waved a dead chicken. Just kidding. Something is broken with the iTunes store methinks.

  • Can't play rented movies.  They appear to download OK and the timer accurately reports days remaining to watch.  But whenever I try to play the movie I get this message, "An error occurred loading this content.  Try again later."

    Can't play rented movies.  They appear to download OK and the timer accurately reports days remaining to watch.  But whenever I try to play the movie I get this message, "An error occurred loading this content.  Try again later.". Have been using the Apple TV for 2 weeks and everything else seems to work OK.  The Apple TV reports its SW is up to date.  I've tried this with two movies rented frim iTunes directly from the Apple TV.

    If after you download the movie, you navigate away and do something else with your Apple TV the content you have downloaded will be overwritten and you'll need to download it again. It's a pain in the neck for many who have slow downloads but it's something that comes with using volatile memory rather than a hard drive for storage.
    Perhaps you're not doing this, but I thought it worth mentioning.

  • I can't play the downloaded iTunes movie on my newly updated iMac to OS X Maverick. Why not? And How can I get it to work? Thanks.

    I can't play the downloaded iTunes movie on my newly updated iMac to OS X Maverick. Why not? And How can I get it to work? Thanks.

    Do you get any error message?
    What actually happens when you open it?
    What app are you trying to play the files inside? Try iTunes.
    I assume these files have DRM from the iTunes store. The Mac needs to be authorized to play them, open iTunes & select Authorize in the store menu, then sign in with the Apple ID that purchased the files.
    Select the iTem in iTunes & get info on it (from the File menu) & you can see the account name that it belongs to.

  • Does anyone know if the Apple HDMI adaptor can play iTunes purchased movies with the latest IOS

    Does anyone know if the Apple HDMI adaptor can play iTunes purchased movies with the latest IOS. I only want to play my downloaded movie on a TV where there is no internet for Apple to unlock it and play via my AppleTV. The reviews I am reading are very mixed !

  • HT1657 Can i play rented movies on my ipad being offline?

    Can i play rented movies on my ipad being offline?

    The answer appears to be "maybe". Once the rental has completely downloaded it shouldn't need an Internet connection from then on, but I've seen reports here from people who tried the play the rental and has it insist on an Internet connection. I've never been able to spot any common factor between such reports to form an opinion as to why this happens, though it's possible that the movie hadn't really completely downloaded. But I'd advise not presuming that an Internet connection won't be necessary.
    Someone else here may have better insight into the issue.
    Regards.

  • I can't play any purchased movies. Sounds like it is the 6.0 update. So what is the fix? Am I just stuck not being able to use my Apple TV until...?

    I can't play any purchased movies. Sounds like it is the 6.0 update. So what is the fix? Am I just stuck not being able to use my Apple TV until...?

    Sorry I can't help but I have potentially a similar problem.
    We have an Apple TV 3 and after the most recent software update (potentially coincidental timing), our purchased movies & TV shows will no longer play for our US account. We can play previews but that's it. We also tried renting a new movie but that didn't work either. No error messsage, just select play, it thinks about it, then returns you to the same screen again.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly it and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be pl

    Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly the drone and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos , sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be played . Checking the info shows that each of the unplayed videos was saved in the same mp4 format as the playable ones yet some of my most important videos won't play . It's getting very frustrating .

    first; I use Perian, that helps even though it is no longer supported, (must have for avi files)
    the apple-cores at apple have gotten very sloppy -- quicktime is a bit finicky and flakey. 
      example,   occasionally (when copy file from quad's card to hard drive)  the avi will show up as a 'mov' file and qt plays it no problem and no conversion.
    but that is very occasionally,  most of the time qt won't convert the file,   -- iMovie won't open an avi without Perian installed  ,  I don't know how that effects qt.
    qt 7"pro" is no good either, (qt 10 does everything it does and for NOT the extra $35)  
    I have gone to VLC  and MPlayerX  for direct playback for drones and cameras.  

  • Can't find my downloaded movies after upgrade ipad2 iOS 5

    After aan easy upgrade to ios5.1.1 I can not find my downloaded movies after upgrade ipad2 iOS 5.

    You are looking in the videos app - correct?
    If they are not in there - try this ....
    Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. If a movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should hopefully start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK and if the rest of your movies have appeared.
    If they still do not show up - sync them back from iTunes on your computer.
