I rented a movie on my iPhone and it won't download
It starts to download (very slowly), but when my phone died and came back on after I plugged it in, it had started downloading all over again. Now everytime my phone goes to sleep and I turn it back on, it starts from 0 again. I'm trying to keep it from shutting off, but I feel like I shouldn't have to do that if I've paid for this movie. Is it just this slow and troublesome because I did it on my phone instead of my computer? Is there any way to cancel the download for a credit, and then download it to my computer instead?
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.

I bought a movie off of iTunes on my iPhone and it won't download
Okay.
I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store, then.
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 downloading 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. -

I rented a movie on my Iphone4s and it is taking for ever to download. I was wondering how I can transfer that download to my computer without paying another rental price and then sync to my iphone.
You can't. Movies you rent on your iPhone or iPad can't be transferred back to a computer. Sorry.

I have a new computer and it has firefox on it of the 5.0 version and I went back to go download my movies from Blockbuster.com and I couldn't download them because I needed a IE plug-in for Firefox and the 5.0 does not work with it I need to go back and find if I can get a download of 4.0 version of firefox so I can get the IE plug-in for Firefox so I can download my movies.
- Try going to Setings>Store and sign out of the account and then sign back in.
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears -
I rented a movie on iTunes for my iPhone. I had to pause it. When I came back, it could not play because it said I didn't have enough storage now. Anyone know how to correct this?

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 :

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 -
Rented a movie on Apple TV and it won't let us download it
How do you get the movies you rented on Apple TV to show up? Settings does not have a download area where you can download your purchase.
Could be a possiblity you rented SD over HD?
Check with iTS support.

Hello Bath668,

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.
This is a confusing statement. Can really move the rental between devices or not???If you originally downloaded it to a computer, yes. If you originally downloaded it to an iOS device, probably not; if you want to try anyway, use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes.

I rented a movie on my MAC and wanted to see how I can watch it on my iPad?
I rented a movie on my MAC and wanted to see how I can watch it on my iPad? It currently doesn't show up on the videos app.
Howdy Twetz8,
To view the movie you rented with your Mac on your iPad you would sync it from the Mac to the iPad.
About renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
If you rented the movie on your computer, but want to watch it on an iOS device, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as often as you want, but you can only have it on one device at a time.
If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.
To watch an HD movie, you need to play it on a supported device: your computer, iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or TV using Apple TV.
Enjoy,
