Movies on appletv

If I buy a movie from my computer from Itunes will I be able to play it on my appletv and be able to download it to my iPod also?

yes. While I am usually a lurker in stuff like this I can say definitively yes. I primarily use 2 computers; 2 Apple TV's and 1 - iTouch.
Now I am not going to claim that Apple is terribly accurate when it counts media devices for DR purposes. Not that it can't count mind you... just that I have never seen a way to identify which devices are current.... and to kill older ones... say someone steals an iPhone.... how do I de-authorize it if I don't have it.
But your question is very clear and very doable..

  • Moving rented movies from appletv to itunes

    How do I move a rented movie on appletv to itunes. I know you can do it the other way around. But this time i rented the movie straight from my apple tv and dont see how to move it to my computer. Ultimately I want to move it to my iphone. But want to move it to itunes on my computer first.
    Any ideas???

    How do I move a rented movie on appletv to itunes.
    You can't. A rental done on an Apple TV can't be played anywhere else.

  • I've rented several movies over AppleTV, but can not download. I get a message "An error occurred loading this content. Try again later. " i've been trying for 3 days now... anyone with similar problem?

    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.

  • If I purchase a movie from AppleTV can I download to iTunes?

    If I purchase a movie from AppleTV can I download to iTunes?

    Thanks... that was my thinking.  When I go to iTunes on Mac there is no "Purchased" section for Movies... there is one for Music and TV Shows... and in iTunes on iPad there is a section there as well for Purchased Movies... so how can you get to Purchased Movies in iTunes.. only option is to buy... if I press buy will it tell me I already bought it and let me download it?  don't want to get charged twice for the same movie.

  • "Movie to AppleTV" = 960x540 res .. how do I get 1280x720?

    I've been using "Movie to AppleTV" to movie videos from my HD DV camcorder to the AppleTV, but I just noticed it's generating 960x540 movies. How do I generate 1280x720 ("HD") movies?
    This camera, a Canon HV20, can shoot in 1080p 24fps progressive, FYI. That's the mode I normally use, but I don't think iMovie is treating it as such, just as an FYI. But movies look nice and are timed properly coming out of iMovie from this cam. Just...lower res than I'd like.

    Did you do an erase and install of Mavericks?  If not look in the HD/Library/Application Support folder for an iDVD folder.  There should be a Themes folder in it. If it's not there look in your Home/Library/Applications Suport folder for the iDVD folder.
    NOTE: In Mavericks, 10.9,  the Home Library is invisible so go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring up this window:
    Select Show Library Folder.  Now you can check to see if the iDVD folder in there.
    If you find the iDVD folder launch iDVD, go to its Advanced preference pane and point iDVD to the Themes folder:
    If you can't find the Themes folder you'll need to reinstall iDVD from the source you installed it from originally, i.e. the disks that came with your Mac or an iLife 09 or 11 disk.

  • HT1498 Why do rented movies on AppleTV have to start the download all over again if I didn't watch it yesterday?

    I rented a 1080p movie using AppleTV (3rd gen) several days ago. But the download time was so slow that I decided to let it download & watch it another day. Two days later I tried to watch it and the long slow download started all over again. So again I let it load intending to watch it the next day. When I wanted to watch it yesterday SAME THING ALL OVER AGAIN! Why is this happening? Isn't ATV's hard drive big enough to store it? The movie cover always showed in the "rented" section but obviously wasn't really there.

    Yes - presumably you've set up Home Sharing and can stream from the Mac using the Computers icon to access your itunes library on AppleTV?
    If you rent in iTunes you have to wait for the whole movie to download (appleTV lets you watch when it thinks the length of the movie is long enough to complete the download as you watch).
    Once downloaded via iTunes it'll stay on the Mac for up to 30 days, but will also be available on AppleTV under a new Rentals column in the Computers section for your iTunes library - Rentals appears along with Movies, TV Shows etc but only when there's a fully downloaded rental to stream from the computer.
    One thing to be aware of is that some titles are only available in HD on AppleTV not via iTunes.
    You might want to experiment SD vs HD anyway as SD downloads far quicker.

  • Why does it take 121 hours to load a movie on AppleTV?

    Why does it take 121 hours to load a movie on AppleTV? We are connected to Wifi with a good signal, but nothing seems to work well. We can play music for awhile, but then it just drops us.  Tried apple support, not available 'til tomorrow.  Purchased yesterday.
    Actually we watched the movie yesterday, and now it has to load again.  It's on the ipad and plays, no problem.  Want to watch it on the tv.  Any Thoughts?
    Ready to take it back.

    Apple TV has no accessible storage, it will need to load each time. The time it takes is dependent on your network.
    What is your current connection via speedtest.net
    Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
    The signal/network test on the device won't give a proper indication if there is a network issue. You will need to try ethernet to help rule that out, and it will also help to get a network report (istumbler, netstumbler or similar. It will show signal strength and noise as well as nearby networks)

  • Rental Movies on AppleTV

    I've rented a movie. I've got the software update for my AppleTV. I've watched the movie about how easy it is to watch rented movies on my AppleTV.
    My AppleTV looks nothing like the one in the movie. Can't watch my rented movie on AppleTV. I can watch it on my computer and iPhone but not AppleTV.
    What am I missing.

    You are missing the other 50 or so posts asking the same question. The search function is your friend.
    At any rate, the update is not out yet. You probably just updated to the sw patch that was available months ago that added YouTube.

  • HT3819 Home Share issue: I have a Mac and Apple TV. Both are log into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view purchased movies on AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers. Itunes sidebar-no

    Has anyone else found solution to Apple devices not 'seeing' each other on Home Share?  I have a Macbook Air (new Nov'12) and Apple TV (new Dec'12). Software updated on both. Both are logged into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view movies purchased from iTunes on my AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers... and ... Itunes sidebar does not have a 'Shared' area at all.  Help please as without this functionality, my Apple TV only provides portal to purchased (i.e. Netflix,...) content which I can get from Wii or Xbox.
    I have already tried the following without success:
    1. Homeshare DID work the first day after I setup Apple TV... but the next day it has not worked since then.
    2. Powered off 30 sec then re-started (Apple TV & Macbook & iTunes login)
    3. Checked Firewall settings per Home Sharing troubleshooting guide (correct settings)
    4. Turning on Photostream in iPhoto and selecting iPhoto within iTunes and then checking to see if Photostream shows anything on AppleTV (it shows 'on' for my iTunes account but 'Zero' pictures found ... despite the >3,000 pictures showing avail in iTunes).
    I also have 'Remote" app on my iPhone 4, with Home Sharing turned on (same Wifi network)... it has a very similar message as the Apple TV and same result that despite all devices having HomeShare 'on' they cannot see each other:  "Remote will automatically find the iTunes libraries and Apple TVs that have Home Sharing turned on using the account xxxx (it lists my correct itunes account name)."

    I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.

  • How do I manging multiple copies of movies for AppleTV and iPod in iTunes?

    I do not have an AppleTV yet, but I am considering getting one. I was wondering how those who have both an iPod and ATV manage the syncing of Movies that may have different resolutions?
    If I want to have the same movie on ATV and my iPod I would need two copies in iTunes at different resolutions, correct? At least when I look at the iTunes export in iMovie it shows I can have a higher resolution for the ATV than the iPod.
    So, how do you manage the auto syncing of these multiple copies so that they aren't all copied to both devices? iTunes doesn't have good Movie management as far as sub-folders, etc. I would like iTunes to treat these copies as one movie and only sync the appropriate resolution for the device.
    I also notice that multiple copies then show up in FrontRow as well. It would be nice if only the highest resolution would show up.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Just create 2 different playlists like
    Movie-ATV
    Movie-iPod
    Put those video files with higher resolution on playlist Movie-ATV
    Put those video files with lower resolution on playlist Movie-iPod
    in iTunes Preferences choose your ATV only to sync the 1st movie playlist - and your iPod only to sync the 2nd one.

  • ITunes gift cards for movies on AppleTV?

    Hi, guys. I got a couple iTunes gift cards that I have been accumulating. Can I use these to buy movies on my AppleTV for purchase or rent?

  • What's an average download time for a movie on appletv?

    Trying to use AppleTV for the first time and it seems to be taking hours to download.  My network is working properly.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Permershall.
    There isn't an average as such, it depends on connection speeds.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • No audio from Itunes Movies via AppleTV

    I haven't been able to get any audio from any of the movies I stream from Itunes. Funnily enough, AppleTV works with Netflix and Youtube. The audio works here. Can someone help?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Could you please tell is where the movies you are playing from iTunes have come from. (I.e. are they from the iTunes Store or are they your own videos)

  • HT1657 having problems renting movies on appleTV

    We are having problems using our appleTV, earlier today it wouldn't show up on my ipad while watching a podast, we had to watch it form the ipad instead of the TV.
    Then we rented a movie from the iTunes store on the appleTV and it told us it would take 16 hours to download and watch it, then it changed to 20 hours and then 23 hours. I am about to take the dog gone unit back and tell them to keep it. This happened earlier last week where we ended up paying twice to watch a movie on both the iPad and appleTV. Thankfully they reimbursed us.  Help !!
