I'm unable to transfer rented movies to my device

In the online instructions, it says in iTunes, to select the device connected, go to Movies tab in the device dialog, then the rented movie should appear there with a 'Move' option.
I have the latest version of iTunes and an iPad 3. When my iPad is connected to iTunes, if I follow the directions provided online, no rented movies appear, and therefore, no 'Move' option appears either.
Has the process changed for transferring rented movies from a computer (Windows) to an HD movie compatible device (iPad 3)?
I appreciate any help!

Geesh - all this information and no  one has any clue to this? Not even someone from Apple?
Can someone at least point me in the right direction?

  • Unable to Transfer Rented Movies to iPod Touch (error 5103)

    I just rented a movie to test it out on my iPod Touch. Problem is when I go to sync my iPod it wont transfer to my iPod. It will start the transfer and almost finish then I get this error message...

    Any known reasons why I may be getting this error? I've tried many times. I have a fully updated Touch and iTunes.

    I have tried the method of authorizing my computer and then initiating transfer purchases method yet my purchases were not transfered. I was told Apple can put your purchases in a certain place for you to retrieve them in your I-tunes account.
    Is there any way you can help me with this problem?

  • Transfer Rented Movies from Apple TV V2 to Computer?!?!

    I rented some movies on my Apple TV. Can I transfer them to my Mac that the Apple TV is synced with? I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this. I know that I can transfer rented movies from the Mac to the Apple TV, but the other way???
    Please someone let me know.

    If you think you might need to watch your movie on anything other then Apple TV, rent it form iTunes on your computer. Once it is on your computer you can move it to an iPod, iPhone, and even Apple TV 2.0.
    Under this system the only thing you can't do is have an HD rented movie on your computer. iPods and iPhones can't play that anyway. Yes, I think media giants sleep safer when HD movies are not on peoples "corruptible" computers and safe and sound on an "appliance".
    The only way to make this any easier would be to allow SD rentals to transfer back to a computer but not HD. I think that would just add another layer of confusion.

  • Can I transfer rented movies from one computer to another?

    I am posting this message as every time I try to transfer rented movies from my PowerBook to my iPod get the following message.
    Attempting to copy to the disk "Michael Graham's iPod" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.
    I have gotten this message with an iPod Classic, as well as an iPod Touch, so don't think it is the iPod, but can not be sure of that. Also have posted a message about this in past, but none of the suggestions seemed to help. In addition Apple seems to be no help. In any event if I use my dad's Mac Mini to transfer the rented movie I do not get this message. In any event I just wonder if their is any way to transfer rented movies from one my laptop to his desktop, so I then came transfer to my iPod Touch.
    Thanks in advance

  • Transfer rented movie to iTunes

    If I try to update my iPad to IOS 5.0.1 I get a warning that I should transfer rented movies to my iTunes library - but how? I have one rented movie, but that doesn't appear in my list of movies.

    If the film was rented and downloaded directly on the iPad, then from 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 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.

  • HT1657 Why can't I transfer rented movies from my iPad to my Mac?

    Why can't I transfer rented movies from my iPad to my Mac? This is absolutely senseless and annoying! I rented the movie and  should be able to watch it wherever I decide to!! A bit more concern for your clients, please...

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here. As far as I know Apple haven't given a reason, but you can try leaving feedback for them via this page : http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Transfer rented movie from Z10 to Playbook

    Is there a way to transfer a rented movie on the Z10 to my Playbook or vise versa? Any thoughts or suggestions?

    Rented from where? AppWorld? Are you using the very same BBID on both devices?

  • Unable to find rented movies from itunes

    Once I download the rented movie, I am unable to find it on my mac book pro.  The library only lists TV shows, podcasts, music.  My purchased TV shows are listed, but where do I find my rented movies?  Thanks!

    Unfortunately, rental movies do not appear in Front Row. I believe this is because of the inability of Front Row to alert you (and have you click "okay") to the rental agreement requirements. It may also be because Front Row does not give iTunes feedback about when you started playing the movie and/or when you're done. If you would like to see rental movies in iTunes, as do quite a few people who post in this forum, I would suggest you send Apple some Mac OS X feedback (since there's no form specifically for Front Row):

  • HT1390 Unable to watched rented movie on ATV2

    Last night we wanted to watch a movie on our ATV2 so on my Mac I went into iTunes and rented a HD movie. I let the download start and went off to prepare dinner. When I came back to my Mac a hour later there was an error message on the screen saying there was an error connecting to the store so I reinitiated the download. A few minutes later I got a message saying that the movie was ready for viewing, would i like to watch it now or later. I selected later and left it to continue the download.
    In the end we did not end up watching the movie last night, but now I want to watch it. On my ATV2 I went into my library. The Rentals option appeared in the menu and, for some reason, the movie I rented is in the list of rentals twice. When I selected either of the movies to watch I got an error saying that the movie is currently being watched on another device and to stop it running on that device before trying again.
    The movie was not being watched anywhere else. How do I tell iTunes this? Why won't it let me watch the movie on the ATV2 if I purchased on my Mac?
    I tried rebooting both the ATV2 and Mac. I then deleted both copies of rental from iTunes. One of them I had issues deleting from trash, saying it was being used. I then restarted downloading the rental again and again said I would watch later when prompted. Now the Rentals option does not even appear on my ATV2 when I go to my library on my computer.
    I could not find anywhere in the support material if it was actually possible to rent a movie from iTunes on Mac and then view on ATV2. Should it be possible? I did find a support note that said that any movie rented from an ATV2 could only be viewed on that device.
    Any clues to fix this problem. I tried calling Apple support but they don't work weekends.

    Further investigation revealed that I was unable to watch the movie anywhere. I kept getting iTunes Error 42110 when it tried to authenticate.
    After searching through iTunes support material I found the solution, which was to remove the 'SC Info' folder from /Users/Shared. After I deleted this folder everything started working again.

  • Why will my apple tv only access purchases made in itunes library? My Home Sharing is activated on both my TV and computer, but I continue to get message to activate Home Sharing. I am unable to transfer my movies downloaded in Itunes.

    Why will my Apple TV only accept purchases made in Itunes? I am unable to transfer movies and music that I have  downloaded in Itunes through my Apple TV to my TV. All movies are in an MP3 Ipad format.I have followed every troubleshooting suggestion with no luck. If my Apple TV will transfer purchased music, I must assume the Home Sharing is activate on both my computer and TV.

    Thank you. I meant streaming, not transfer. I have streamed movies through my Apple TV before and watched them on my TV. Now, the only content that will stream is what I purchased in the Itunes store. My Home Sharing is obviously activated or the streaming of purchased items would not work. Both my Itunes and Apple TV are fully updated. Where am I going wrong?

  • Download error : unable to download rented movie

    Help me please, I already frustrated because this problem. When I rented movies from iTunes in my iPhone 4, i cannot download that with the message : download error, unable to download movies, "real steel" could not be downloade at this time. I already try to another network but it still like that, and I also try to rent another movie but I still get the same problem. My available storage is double than the movie size. So what must I do, any suggestion for me? Thanks for the advice anyway.

    Hello DS200,
    I would be concerned if I were repeatedly getting this error with a specific download.  I found an article with steps you can take to report an issue with this movie rental:

  • Transfer Rented Movie to Apple TV

    I rented movies on my mac and am trying to transfer them to my first gen Apple Tv to watch on the TV. My iTunes is showing no Apple Tv device like it used to and I can't seem to find any way to transfer these rented movies?? Help

    From the iTunes Store FAQ:
    iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    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.
    You shouldn't need HomeSharing enabled. Just ensure to log into your Apple TV using the same apple ID used to rent the movie on the computer. Then it should show up in the Movies section of your Apple TV.
