HT204370 Rented movie stopped playing

I was watching a rented movie thru Apple TV and it stopped playing with a message that Apple TV was not connected to the internet. I check everything and it is fine. How can I restart a partially watched rented movie? All I can find is the option to rent it again.

Yes you'll get charged.
If you're in US you have 30 days to START watching but once you do you have 24 hours to watch - too short IMO.
In UK you have 48 hours to watch after choosing play.
Poor experience regardless - raise a query ticket via itunes store support or through your itunes account pages.

  • HT1657 Why does my rented movie stop playing randomly throughout the playback?

    Why does my rented movie stop throughout the viewing period? This is so irritating while trying to watch I have to keep pressing the play icon to get it to play at all! Anyone have any info on why this is happening on my IPAD2?

    Hi fiercestorm,
    It is possible that the video file of this movie has become corrupted. If it was purchased from iTune, and is still available in the iTunes Store for your region, you can delete it and download it again from the store. See this article -

  • HT1657 Rented movie stops playing saying "unable to download"

    Rented "Dallas Buyers Club" and it stopped playing with 20 minutes left to go! "Unable to play" pops up on the screen. Tried to stop & go back to the same time but same thing happened 4 times. How do I get store credit?

    Check speedtest.net to see if connection is adequete.
    Check istumbler or net netstumbler to verify any network interference
    Make sure DNS is set correctly (settings - general - network - configure DNS - automatic)

  • My rented movie stops playing after an hour

    Im traveling through Europe and rented a movie August: Osage County, I've downloaded it to my iPad and have watched approximately an hour. Then it stops! Video couldn't be read or something like that! What? I've rented it and it expires in 48hrs but I can't watch the whole movie!?

    Seems i´m not alone.

  • While watching an iTunes movie from my Apple TV, why does my movie stop playing at the 1 hour mark?  I'm assuming I have a setting causing this to happen, but I have no idea what setting needs to be changed.  Can someone help me?

    It's right at an hour (consistently), but the computer goes to sleep prior to that. It's as if iTunes goes to sleep. Also, it wasn't always this way. Originally, the movies played through without interruption. At some point, I guess a setting was changed, and now I only get an hour. Also. My energy settings are set to go to sleep at 10 minutes.

  • Apple TV - rented movie, stopped midway, now can't watch 2nd half.

    Apple TV - rented movie, stopped midway, now can't watch 2nd half.
    No option to "return to rented movie" - screen only says "go to Settings, find Downloads, then Download" or something similar.
    ***? I went to Settings and there is NO Downloads option. Anywhere!
    I think Apple is losing it. FIrst my iPhone 4S, which I was tricked into loading the new operating system which is HORRIBLE. Am now looking at moving back to Android. And now Apple TV seems screwed up. Jesus, is this the end?

    If you rent it on your Apple TV then that is the only place that you can watch it - from the HT1657 page that you posted from :
    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.
    Why it's like that I don't know, I don't think that Apple have said.

  • My rented movie stops at a certain spot in the movie, and wont ever play again. WHY

    Whenever i try to play 21 Jump Street as a rented movie it stops at 8:16 and wont play again. Restarting itunes doesnt help.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • Movies stop playing while downloading

    This is getting very bad - I bought this in the hopes that I could just click and rent.
    I have an extremely high speed 50mbps Fibre Optic connection, and if I rent even a non HD movie on the atv2, it stops after 10 mins and doesn't resume.
    I then have to press menu and press play. It starts instantly then. This only works for about 10 times, and then I cant resume at all.
    Anyone with advice? Of course I have tried rebooting the device, restarting my Router etc. By the way my atv2 has ethernet cable directly to the router.
    Thanks.

    I have a similar problem, I had to uninstall and then re-install itunes because it kept messing up on me and when I reinstalled it, my digital movies stopped working. All my songs work fine and my movies are still stored in the library, but they won't open. I just get a black screen with no sound and it doesn't play.
    Does anyone have an answer to this? I'm new to this site and tried to create a new thread asking about this but can't seem to find a button/link on these forum pages to let me do that.

  • Rented movies never play

    I rent movies from on demand and it's like a lottery whether I actually get to watch them- They are either pixelated or just stop playing. I keep trying and they won't play but they won't take them off my bill
