If I rent a movie in a country, can I watch it in another country?

I live in Switzerland.  I would like to know if I rent a movie through iTunes Switzerland, I would be able to watch it in one of my Apple supported machines while I am in another country

Yes, if in a simple scenario you rent the movie while in Switzerland, then carry it on your laptop computer to your hotel room in New York and play it there it should work.  If you're trying to do something fancy involving transferring to a another computer authorized to a different  account and then playing it you might have problems.

    If I rented a movie on my iPad through iTunes can I watch it on apple tv?

    I dont think so.  I believe it requires internet to start watching, but you can continue watching offline.  I am really not certain I dont really rent things, I prefer to own my content.

  • If i rent a movie from itunes store can i watch it offline

    if i rent a movie from the itunes store and download to my ipad, can i then watch offline, like on a plane for example

    Yes you can watch it offline after you start it though the timer for the rental will start so if you dont finish it with in the time window of the rental you will have to re rent it.

  • 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.

  • HT1657 After renting a movie do you need WIFI to watch the movie?

    After renting a movie do you need WIFI to watch the movie?

    No, you do not need Internet to watch it. when you rent it, it downloads the movie or show and then you have a limited amount of time to watch it and then after 48 hours of starting it, it will remove itself.You can watch it without internet once you have downloaded it.

    I have the same issue, to temporarily fix it go to Settings > General > Restart.  When it restarts the movie should play.  You have to do this for each movie for the most part.

  • Rented 2 movies last night but can't find them as downloaded to sync to my iPad.  When I click on the movie again, it says "previosly rented."  where can I find the link to download them?

    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.

  • Rented a movie on my iPad have not watched it and it's disappeared?

    Rented a movie on my iPad - have not watched it nd it's disappeared?

    After you have rented and downloaded a movie to your iPad you have 30 days to watch it. But after you begin watching it you have 24 hours and then it expires and disappears. You say that you did not watch it, but if you started the movie even for just a few seconds after the movie downloaded, you started the 24 hour clock.

  • I rented a movie on apple tv and while watching it kept stopping... i never finished the movie cause it wasn't playing

    I rented a movie on apple tv and while watching it kept stopping... i never finished the movie cause it wasn't playing.. Now what do I do.  My netflix wouldn't play either.  Will I be able to get my rented movie back?

    What is your internet speed? www.speedtest.net
    6mbps is required for instant HD rentals, you can turn off HD in the settings if on a slow connection
    You can also rent in iTunes and stream to ATV
    Wifi or ethernet?
    Are you using your ISP's DNS?

  • Rented a movie on my mac - trying to watch on apple tv (i think 2), but iTunes not "seeing" apple tv - so i can't 'move' the rental to the device.  ??

    rented a movie on my mac - trying to watch on apple tv (i think 2), but iTunes not "seeing" apple tv - so i can't 'move' the rental to the device.  i'm brand new at apple tv - do i need to enable it or something?

    Is it the little black box? If yes then it is the 2nd model. It won't show up in iTunes as there is no syncing involved. The only time it does is when you connect and need to restore the device.
    You need to enable home sharing in iTunes and on ATV

    Does the original library file still exist on the computer?  Hopefully when creating the new library it was done in a seperate folder as I do not believe iTunes allows for two library files in the same location.

    MY IPHONE IS NOT A SIM FREE HOW CAN I USE IT IN ANOTHER COUNTRY?

    Apple can do nothing. As Tim said, only the carrier to whom the iPhone is locked can authorize unlocking. You must contact that carrier.

  • Can I FaceTime someone from another country without being charged with international fees?

    Can I FaceTime someone from another country without being charged with international fees?

    here is how you actually do it put your phone in air plane mode you should see it when you open the settings app then go to wifi and turn it on this will let you use Imessage to text the person for free if they have a iPhone the same should apply for face time calling but since currently FaceTime can only be done over wifi it shouldn't charge you but the method above is what many would call a precaution ether way it should connect last resort download Skype face time app from app store setup account with both devices and you can chat over 3G or wifi without getting charged also enables connection for FaceTime to ios to android just in case any reader would like to connect to an android user that has a front facing camera.
