If I rent a movie in iTunes for my iPhone, Macbook or iPad do I need wifi to watch it?

You should not need it as the film should be downloaded.

I rented a movie from iTunes and it is on my IPad. I wanted to watch it on AppleTV and there is no airplay icon showing up on the movie

I rented a movie from ITunes and it is on my IPad. I wanted to watch it on Apple TV however there is no airplay ap showing up. What should I do

That won't be possible. You can only view a rental on the device used to do so, unless it is done via computer (in which case you can stream using home sharing)

As a new user of apple TV, I need some advice. When I rent a movie from Itunes for viewing later, it seems to download for a second time, with a message saying ready to view in 30 mins, it proceeds to load up all over again. What am I doing wrong

As a new user of Apple TV, I need some assistance.When I rent a movie on iTunes and download for viewing later, say a day or two later, It seems to load itself all over again with a msg saying ready to view in 25 mins ! So having waited the 25 mins movie starts and runs for maybe 1 hour and the pauses for maybe 5 mins while it seems to load again . any help appreciated

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you use the Apple TV for something else or turn it off it will erase whatever is on it's drive. If you are going to download content for later viewing you might consider doing it on the computer, downloads don't disappear until they expire and you can watch them as many times as you want.

If i rent a movie through itunes, but do not transfer to ipad how can i download it to ipad without itunes and not be charged again?

I rented a movie via itunes and downloaded it to itunes at the time of rental. i was unable to transfer it to my ipad while connected to itunes due to a size constraint...i now have room on my ipad but am not near my itunes computer (2500 miles away), is it possible to download the movie directly from the iTunes Store to my ipad without having to rent it again and be charged a second time?
please advise.
thanks

No, rentals are only allowed to be on 1 device at a time, so you would need to move it from the computer to the ipad. This applies to rentals from the computer, if rented on a device (ipad) it is only viewable on that ipad and cannot be transferred elsewhere.

I rented a movie on itunes and synced it to my ipad but it says that could not load movie?

I've rented a movie from iTunes on my computer which I synced to my iPad - or at least it appears to have moved over however when I hit the play button on the iPad it tells me that it 'could not load movie', I'm not sure what to do next?

If you rented and downloaded it directly on the iPad then it should be in the Videos app - if it's not then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

I downloaded a movie from the iTunes store using my iPhone. I want to view it on my iPad2, but can't find where it is. Help?

If you rented the video on your iPhone, it's on your iPhone. You will need to watch it from there.

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.

Hello Jamesk1997,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice. You may want to consider a reset to address this issue:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

I rented a movie from iTunes. When I go to watch; it says download???

I rented a movie from iTunes for my iPad 3rd Gen. I went to the video app like usual. Selected to watch, and it said- I've already purchased it, but I have to go to downloads to download it. What the heck does that mean? Where do I go. It's taking me longer to figure this out; then would've been to watch the movie. Please help! I'd really appreciate it

Hi I have the same problem I cannot work out how I watch the movie???

I rented a movie on itunes and it says that it is ready to watch but it will not play

I rented a movie on itunes and a message popped up that said it was ready to watch. When I click on the movie it freezes and does not move forward. What is the problem? I have a macbook pro

Have you tried signing out and then signing back into your account on the iPad? Settings>Store>Apple ID>Sign Out. Restart the iPad and then sign in to your account again and then see if the movie will sync.
Another thing that you can try is transfer purchases from your iPad to the iTunes library and then try to sync.
I realize that you want to sync a movie from iTunes on your computer to the iPad, but I am just trying to think of a way to "reset" your iTunes account and get everything back in order again.
You tried restarting the iPad and resetting it as well? Quitting iTunes, restart your computer and then try again?
One other thing that is really a long shot but you can try it - and it works for third party apps that are crashing - download an app - any free app - that is supposed to reset some security issue in your iTunes account and maybe that would work in this case.

If I download a movie to my iPad, do I need wifi to watch it (ex. In the car)?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you download a movie, it's in your iPad storage, so you don't have to connect it to Internet
