Is there a way to display movies purchased from itunes from my ipad to my apple TV without internet (still using wifi)

I am going on vacation and will have a wifi network, but no internet access. I have tried to display downloaded movies from my ipad purchased on itunes to my apple TV, but get "Unknown Error -3". I can use mirroring, but not show the video. I am signed into the same account on both devices and the movie is downloaded to the ipad. The only issue I can think of is some DRM check, but I am not sure.
Has anyone been able to do this? It would be nice to be able to use my purchased movies on vacation without needing internet.
thanks for any help

Is there anyway that you know of to utilize iTunes purchased content that has been downloaded to a device on a TV without internet? This really limits when it can be used on vacation or when internet is down etc.
Will the lightning to HDMI dongle work?
thanks for any help!
This was a big advantage of AppleTV1 - generally it did not need internet authorisation for synced material on its internal drive and was great for holiday/vacation.
I tend to use a Mac Mini these days when going away.

  • Is there a way to get video out from an iPad 2 to a TV without also using audio out?

    I'd like to watch Netflix on the TV but use my Bluetooth headphones for audio, so as not to wake the baby. Is there a way to make this happen? I've tried the Composite AV Cable but the Bluetooth headphones stop working the moment the cable is plugged in. Thanks if you can help!

    Thanks, but our TV doesn't have one - and it wouldn't help with Bluetooth without additional gear. Is there a solution that would make use of the iPad's bluetooth audio capability directly?

  • I have an ipad and ipod nano. the laptop i used to load music to nano died, is there a way to load music purchased from itunes on the ipad to the nano?

    my laptop died, is there a way to tranfer music purchased in ITunes from an ipad air to an ipod nano?

    The only way to sync to a nano is to use an iTunes account on a computer.
    When or if you get a replacement computer you can retrieve all of your purchased music (from iTunes) to sync to your nano

  • My iphone was recently stolen. Is there any way to access my purchases in itunes (without having transferred them to a computer)?

    My iphone was recently stolen. Is there any way to access my purchases in itunes (without having transferred them to a computer)? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Hm, good suggestion, but I've actually already done this (and I've had a friend go through the steps with me). There is just NOTHING that is showing up under any of the categories in the cloud for downloading. The thing is, I'm just not sure if I enabled cloud-sharing or not on my iphone (although I know I've backed up my data through cloud on my iphone at some point). 
    Any other suggestions?

  • I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    Technical issues aside, there's still a legal issue.
    Neither 2006 nor 2007 MacBooks shipped with Snow Leopard 'factory' installed. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard became available in September 2009. So you purchased and installed a Snow Leopard upgrade disc on the 2007 system at some point.
    If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a single-user copy, then legally, you need to purchase another one for the second computer. If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a Family Pack 5-user license, then you're good to go.

    If you have an active MobileMe account, Apple was giving away a single-user upgrade copy of Snow Leopard for a limited time, and you should have received an email with a link, or been offered the opportunity when you signed in to your MobileMe account on the web:
    http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/24/free-snow-leopard-discs-for-mobileme-users-n ow-arriving/
    Worst case, single-user Snow Leopard upgrade discs are $29 retail, direct from Apple. I'd hate to have two computers and no OS installation CD's for whatever version I'm currently using.

    I have a question is there any way I can put music from my iPad to my iPod? Some one said to me yes by using a DRM

    Would those work if I am using the 4g wifi hotspot on the ipad to get the music onto an ipod touch?  I am willing to give up third party music if this would work. Just not sure if it would work since the 4g wifi has that 50mb restriction

  • Is there a way to send a message from my IPAD using a bluetooth keyboard?

    Thank you,

    Are you asking if there is a way to press "Send" from the BT keyboard as opposed to reaching over and tapping it on the screen? Not to the best of my knowledge.

  • I can send tv shows from my ipad to my apple tv without any issues.  Why cant i do the same with a movie rental?

    I can send tv shows from my ipad to my apple tv without any issues.  Why cant i do the same with a movie rental?  Or how do i do the same with a movie rental?

    Personally I think the iOS devices are poor at reconnecting  - Airplay establishes that a link is available but when the iPhone/iPad has been away from the house and rejoins the network i think AppleTV already thinks it's connected with a different IP address and fails to recognise it has joined the network again with new credentials.
    Something along those lines anyway.
    I find that a combination of restarting AppleTV, router and iOS device tends to fix it, but not for everyone.

  • Is there a way to merge my purchases from two apple accounts

    I made several song purchases with an apple ID that I had set up when I purchased an Ipod. My Ipod broke and I forgot about my apple ID and account for a while. Then when I purchased my Iphone I had set up a different appleID and account and made a few purchases with that account. I would like to install everything I purchased through both accounts but am I only able to have my phone associated with one apple ID and my purchases made with that appleID, or is there a way I can get all of my purchases merged to one apple ID account?

    Any content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently, and perpetually, and eternally, and I mean like forever, tied to the account from which it was originally purchased.  Apple provides no way to move songs to a different account.
    You can however put songs from multiple accounts into a single iTunes library.

  • Is there a way to automatically move mail from one folder to another?

    Is there a way to periodically, automatically, move mail from one folder to another?
    For example, I'd like to move mail from one of my IMAP/Archives folders to my MyMac/Archive folder and I'd like this to happen without intervention.
    Can this be done?

    I'll try to be more specific.
    When I'm done with an email, I archive it.
    Because I have multiple email accounts, this results in emails in multiple Archive folders (one per account). 
    I'd like to have these automatically all moved into one (on my Mac).

  • I purchased an album from the itunes store on my ipad2 thinking i could retrieve it from my windows pc. I have turned on home sharing and can see my pc library from the ipad but not vice-versa. Is there any way to transfer the album from my ipad library?

    I purchased an album from the itunes store on my Ipad2 thinking i could access it from my windows laptop where I sync my ipod. I turned on Home Sharing and can see my laptop libraries from my ipad but not vice versa. Is there any way to fix this so I can transfer the album to the itunes on my laptop?

    Yes I tried that. I finally turned off all home sharing settings, shut down my desktop and found them in my account settings in the store on the cloud. So at that point I just had it download everything. But I suspect that with the ipad somehow being on, the store was saying I had already received them? Regardless, my trip today whilst running errands, I was rocking out to vintage Police music! Thank you so much for responding.

  • Is there a way to make movies playlists in itunes 10?

    I would like to be able to make a playlist consisting of movies without having to change info to make them into music videos. If there were a sperarte music video category in the itunes library section, that sure would be neat. But instead there is a music video playlist where the music videos will be, but they also show up in the Music library which I do not like or want. So is there a way to make a movies playlist w/o them ending up clogging the Music section of my itunes library?

    You can make a playlist that contains any combination of audio and video from the Music, Movies, TV Shows, Books (Audiobooks) and Podcasts sources. If you really object to the music videos appearing in Music, either make them Movies, or perhaps better yet, TV Shows and give them a common Show name to group them together.
