ITunes movie purchase on multiple devices?

I did a quick search and did not find what I was looking for.
I'm thinking about purchasing movies from iTunes and before I do, I was wondering what the policy was for transferring the movies to multiple devices? Can I transfer them to my iPhone and my iPod nano?
I know for rentals it is only 1 device at a time. Is movie purchase the same? Thanks.

Purchase is different. You can have the purchased movie on any of your (up to 5) authorized computers and any of your compatible iPods/iPhones. I often have movies or television shows synced to both my Touch and my 3rd gen Nano as I tend to have one with me at certain times and the other at other times.

Is there any way that I can share an in-app purchase over multiple devices even if they are under the same iTunes account?

So there are several iOS devices in my family and on one of our iPads we have purchased an in-app purchase. I also have the same app on another iPad and would like to also have access to that in-app purchase. Both of these devices are under the same iTunes account so is there a way to share this in-app purchase across multiple devices?

But I don't think this is possible.

TS1424 I purchased a movie on itunes but am unable to play it. I get a window that says unable to view. First time I've tried an iTunes movie purchase. The movie is Pulp Fiction.

Purchased Pulp Fiction as my first ever iTunes movie purchase. Won't let me view movie, says not available... Frustrated. What am I doing wrong?

If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music...
Delete the Song(s) and re-download...

HT1311 can you see which device bought something on iTunes where you have multiple devices on the same iTunes account?

is there any way to find out which device dowloaded apps when you have multiple devices using the same itunes account?

The purchase information does not include the device used, but does include the Apple ID used for the purchase.
Apps downloaded on one device with the same Apple ID can be downloaded on another device with that Apple ID.

Itunes movie purchases

i have a question about movies purchased in itunes. is there a limit to the number of devices those movies can be loaded on? i had heard rumor that movies can only be loaded onto 5 devices at a time. i have more than 5 ios devices and would like to be able to have some of those movies on all my devices. also, do those movies purchased in itunes have chapters and movie info included with them?

You only get one download of a movie. You would have to sync it to other devices.

Like apps, can you use an in app purchase on multiple devices?

Hi,
I was wondering if someone can help me with regards to in app purchases. I currently know that should I purchase an app, I can install and use it on multiple devices (iPads, iPods etc)
I would simply log into my account on the multiple devices, and download the app onto the device, simple! I would also only be charged once, a copy would just be downloaded onto the devices.
What I want to know is, is it the same for in app purchases? Can I make a purchase once, and have the additions reflected on every device I have, or do I have to make the same in app purchase several times on the different devices, and as a result be charged again for each device I want it on?
Thanks
Ben

Movie Problems with multiple devices

I have an IPad 2, Itouch(4th Gen) and IPhone. I have downloaded all of my movies exclusively from Itunes but only the latest movie will sync to my IPad and Iphone. The Itouch will sync all of the movies but the other devices will only sync the latest one that I downloaded last week. When I sync them it shows a checkmark but will not change the space used bar or show up on the device itself. For some reason they all sync just fine with my Itouch. Do I need to have Home Sharing or something else on? Any help would be appreciated as Apple wants to charge me to talk to someone from their support organization.

That warning occurs only if you try to create a new Apple ID using an email address already in use. An existing Apple ID can be used with mutiple devices.
What exactly did you do when you got that message?

How many iPod Nano's can I download single iTunes movie purchase onto?

What I want to know most is if you buy one movie off of iTunes then can I download that single movie purchase onto three iPod Nano's? I'm planning on buying three Nano's for my kids for Christmas.
Thanks

What I want to know most is if you buy one movie off of iTunes then can I download that single movie purchase onto three iPod Nano's?
Yes. There's no limit.

HT204370 Can I watch iTunes movies purchased on my MacBook on my iPhone 4s?

I connected my phone to my laptop and synced the movies from my itunes on my MacBook to my iPhone 4s but i can't seem to find them on the phone. Is it possible to watch movies purchased through my Mac on my phone?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Yes you can play them on your phone, you will find them in the 'video' app.

ITunes movie purchase to DVD? or stream to Xbox?

I was wondering if iTunes supported burning a movie purchase to DVD? If it doesn't how well does streaming it to an XBox work with Windows Media player? I assume Xbox has the codec like it does for iTunes music?
I dont have any movie purchases currently so I cant test it and if these methods dont work or work well I am just going to buy the DVD. Was just hoping to get an HD version digitally to work with my setup.

I do not believe that Real Player Plus can burn any videos purchased from the iTunes Store to video DVD. RP Plus can burn non-protected videos from iTunes, but not the copy-protected files from the iTunes Store. If you have yourself successfully burned videos from the iTunes Store to a vide DVD (one that plays in a standard DVD player) with Real Player Plus, I'm sure many of us would be interested in such confirmation, as it would indicate that Real has hacked Apple's DRM in some way.

Viewing iTunes purchases on multiple devices

I bought a tv series on my iPad and want to view it on other devices including an iMac and MacBook pro
. How do I make that happen?

Via Home Sharing or downloading it to each device. See:

New iCloud/itunes account syncing with multiple devices

I recently purchased an iPad with the intention of making a new iCloud account and syncing it with my iPhone and MacBook. Previously, my iPhone and MacBook were synced without iCloud because my whole family used the same iTunes account. I have added the same credit card to my new apple and iCloud accounts, and would like to apply these to my phone and laptop now, but I'm afraid I will lose all the music i downloaded on the other account. Will this happen/what can I do for a smooth transition?

iTunes and iCloud are different accounts but they may use the same ID or different IDs. So you could use the same ID for iTunes on all devices in a family and use multiple IDs for iCloud accounts, one per user so that a user's devices all stay synced without mixing in the other family users' data.

How do I recover iTunes movie purchases deleted from my iPad 2?

My co-worker needed my iPad 2 for a road show ... he deleted iTunes purchased video (Disney Enchanted, and the CARS Bundle) ... I just purchased them 3 weeks ago ... I have HOME SHARING enabled, and can see the icons for these video files on my iTunes software on my desktop, but then iTunes says it "cannot find the files".
I thought it would be as easy as going to iTunes and just downloading the files again... iTunes warns me "you've already bought these -- do you want to buy it again?", and of course the answer is "NO, iTUNES, I JUST WANT TO DOWNLOAD THE FILES TO THE SAME DEVICE AGAIN" (but that isn't an option!).
What do I have to do to recover these files?
Don't tell me I have to purchase them again! That would be BULLSH*T (sorry, I'm annoyed and don't understand why this isn't easier. It should be OBVIOUS.)

This doesn't seem like it was fully disclosed -- or at least, very clearly -- by Apple. I mean, c'mon ... you think it works like anything else
I ordered them on the iPad, and there was no pop-up notification that said "you should sync it (with the cable) to your PC" ... I have my order number and everything.
I mean, its the SAME DEVICE -- same identical iPad 2, same device serial number, same Apple ID ... I get that the movie studios don't want to see any piracy, and I support that (which is why I'm using Apple iTunes!) ... but what the heck is this "they're deleted off the device .. their gone!".
That seems very anti-consumer and I'm stunned that Apple hasn't taken a harder line about it, in the customer's interest. What if my iPad had been stolen? I mean, not my fault -- but the movies I purchased (digital media) aren't replaceable? I cry B-S.
(I appreciate your earlier response and really am not venting at you, but I take it Apple's Indian CSR is going to give me some scripted B-S response that won't be any different).

ITunes Movie Purchase Questions.

Once you have purchased and downloaded a movie from the iTunes store to your iMac is it possible to drag the film file on to a USB stick? Then plug the USB stick in to the TV and watch the movie?

You can copy the movie file anywhere you wish, but it can only be played on an Apple device or in Apple's software. If you want to view the movie on your TV, you'll either have to connect your computer or an iOS device to the TV or get an Apple TV.
Regards.
