I rent a movie on my tablet but I cant watch it on my apple tv

Winston,
I don't believe your statement is correct. If you rent and download a movie to your computer and then plan to watch it on Apple TV, it doesn't work. When buying a movie, it is available on Apple TV but due to licensing reasons, this isn't the case for rentals. 
Apple has cooperated by issuing a credit when I got snaked by this rule.

    Only rentals made on a computer can be transferred to other devices. You will need to watch your rental on the Apple TV.

  • Rented a movie on my Mac but could not watch it on Apple TV

    I rented a movie from my computer and tried to watch it through 3rd generation Apple TV but could not pull it up. Home sharing is on both my computer and Apple TV.

    The movie needs to be fully loaded on your computer before it is accessible. Make sure both are signed in with the same ID. Ensure you are going to the Computers icon on Apple TV

    You're original post is a tad confusing.  If you have your ATV2 installed correctly, you don't need iTunes to watch movies on your TV.
    If instead, you rented a movie on a computer, I'm not sure if you can even "see" it with ATV2 up and running.  On ATV1, I think you have to "transfer" rented movies to the ATV1 before viewing. 
    Short version.  If you want to watch a movie via ATV, it's best to rent the movie directly to the ATV device.

    Hi brett242424,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The movie would be in your iTunes library, in the Movies application.  However, if the rental period has expired, you may need to contact the iTunes Store Support about your situation:

  • HT1657 I rented a movie on Itunes last night and I watched half of it before falling asleep. Today I tried to open the movie and watch the last half but I cannot find it. It has been less than 24 hours since I rented it. Where can I find the movie?

    I found my answer in another Thread and it worked... so for anyone who needs it, here it is:

    Had the same problem and spoke with Apple Support. They had me reset the System Management Controller:
    Shut down the computer. With the computer off, on the left hand side of the keyboard press shift+control+option along with the power button simultaneously and release. Wait 5-10 seconds and restart the computer.
    This solved my problem and I was immediately able to purchase, download, and play an HD movie from iTunes w/o any error message.

  • I rented a movie on my iPad but cannot move it to my computer to watch on tv via Apple tv. How do I transfer the rented movie to my computer?

    I rented a movie on my iPad but cannot move it to my computer to watch on tv via Apple tv. How do I transfer the rented movie to my computer?

    I just rented a movie from my iPad2 and tried to play it through my ATV2 with AirPlay and same problem.... This is absurd guys. Apple I know there are copyright hoops to jump through but come on!! The whole pitch behind AirPlay and AppleTV was to make it easy to watch my purchases on my TV no matter what device they were on. Now I've got to hold my iPad in front of my face to watch a movie for nearly 3 hours!! And when I go to the support site I have no option other than to send an email to billing, screw this. I've not bought a DVD since I purchased my ATV2 over a year ago but if you guys are gonna pull this crap then what incentive do I have to continue the use of something that may or may not work the way it was advertised.
    By the way, this is the first time I've had this problem because I normally rent straight off the ATV or my computer, which by the way I was considering replacing my PC with an iPad but looks like you guys aren't ready for me to make that kind of a switch.
    Don't tell us that a product will do XY and Z then put limits on Y sending to Z.
    FIX THIS!!!

  • HT1657 I have rented a movie on my iPad but it won't download because I don't have enough memory.  Searching thru the FAQ it looks like I am unable to transfer this to my Apple TV.  Is this correct & if so then maybe there should be a warning when purchas

    I have rented a movie on the iPad but I don't have enough memory for it to download  - so I wanted to make it available on my Apple TV - looking at the FAQ it doesn't look like I am allowed to do this! Why not - I've purchased/rented this movie I should be able to watch on any device??!   Can I get a refund for something I can't watch??

    As it says on the page that you posted from :
    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 think that Apple have said (these are user-to-user forums). If you haven't downloaded it on your iPad then have you checked to see if you can download it on your computer's iTunes (Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option) or Apple TV ?
    If it doesn't show on either of them then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will let you download it on a different computer/device or refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    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.
