I rented a movie on Apple TV but it never showed up.

I selected a movie and entered the security code from my credit card and I was taken right back to the description of the movie. Where do I find the movie? I see with TV shows there is a category for purchases. Nothing like that for movies.

Have you tried a reboot?

Hi cheryle36779349,
The free trial that we offer is for Acrobat (we don't offer trials of the online services). So, the first thing you need to do is download Acrobat from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html. When you launch it the first time after installing it, you should be prompted to accept the end-user license agreement.
Then, so convert PDF files to Word, choose File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

I rented a movie on apple tv but want to watch it on my mac

I rented a movie on apple tv one night but it took so long to download I was not able to watch it. I have been travelling ever since and was hoping to watch it on my macbook air before it expired. Any ideas how I can transfer it to my iTunes? They all have the same account. Thanks so much for the help!

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

Welcome to the Apple community.
A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

HT1143 I have rented two movies on Apple TV but when I try to watch the movies, it says there is a problem and it won't start. What do I do?

When I try to watch movies I've rented in AppleTV, it says there's a problem and won't start. What do I do?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router.

I have rented a movie on Apple TV but it won't play. Say it will take 69 hours to be ready! Network tested fine and lowest resolution set. Help?!

How do I contact Apple about this ?

You must have a slower connection if it took 2.5 hours, did you pause it or exit out to the main screen? I've paused movies many times and it resumes..it could be due to the connection as well so what is your actual speed? Check www.speedtest.net Wifi or ethernet? Have you changed the DNS settings?

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 rented a movie a few hours ago and never finished it. I can't view it on my Apple TV nor on my Computer. When I go to rent it again it says you have already rented this movie, but I can't find it anywhere. How do I watch the remainder of the rental?

I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

HT1657 trying to rent a movie on apple tv for the first time and can't do it without authorizing my computer on itunes store but can't find the menu on the iTunes site that lets me authorize my computer. any thoughts out there?

trying to rent a movie on apple tv for the first time and have to authorize my computer but can't find the itunes menu that allows me to do this. any thoughts out there?

If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
If the computer's running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

Just rented a movie on apple tv--watched half and wanted to continue watching the rest on my computer but can't find how to do this.

I just rented a movie on Apple Tv--started to watch it on the TV then wanted to continue on my computer (MacAir) but couldn't find a way to do this. Home sharing is enabled. I pulled up the movie in the Itunes store and clicked on 'rent' but I don't want to have to pay the rental fee again.

Rented movies downloaded to an Apple TV can't be transferred to any other device.
