Problem moving rented movie from laptop to iPad

When I go to move a rented movie from my macbook pro to iPad nothing happens and there is no dialogue box. Purchased movies sync fine. This is a new macbook pro so perhaps the new OS is having a compatibility issue with the iPad? Any ideas?

Did you click "Apply" on bottom right? See second picture.

Just transferred rented movies from laptop to iPad and they indicate expired.

Just rented movies from ITunes. Moved them to iPad and they say expired!

Jerry, have you seen Ling Penguin's post here:

Moving rented movies from Apple TV

I'm having a problem moving rented movies back from my ATV to my iMac.
The scenario is I rent a movie in iTunes on the Mac, move it to the ATV, and after watching it I then try to move them back to the Mac before the rental expires. It won't transfer back even though I'm connected to the Internet.
The "move" option exists in iTunes (I can select either "move" or "delete") in the ATV box. If I select "move" the movie graphic moves over to the Rented Movies field. The problem is that after I click on Sync the movie flips back to the ATV box as soon as it completes syncing so it doesn't become available to watch on the Mac.
I've tried this on several occasions and with different movies. No luck. It looks like it should work but never has successfully transferred back. The iTunes & ATV software are all up to date.
Any ideas?

Yes. The movie rentals originate in iTunes on the Mac.
Perhaps it's easier to understand my situation. We have a number of young adults in the house. They often want to watch the same movies we rent if we tell them if it's worthwhile. The ATV is in our bedroom and my wife & I don't fancy having a half-dozen twenty-somethings piling on the bed to watch a rented movie. The Mac is in my home office. I would like to transfer movies back to it where they can watch or even transfer movies to an iPod & plug into a dock connected to the TV in our family room. I can't get the movie to transfer back (even though it originated on the Mac).
Normally any rented movies are in the ATV field (in my case called "Dad's Apple TV") and there's "move" & "delete" buttons. What I have been doing is to click on Move and then Sync. The movie icon does initially move to the Rented Movies field but it pops back the ATV field just as it finishes syncing.
Now an interesting thing has turned up this morning. We had rented a movie ("Date Night"...thumbs down) last Friday, watched it last night (Monday), and went to iTunes this morning to try once again to transfer it back to our Mac. This time the movie does not show up in the "Dad's Apple TV" field in iTunes even though it's been less than 24 hours since we first started watching it. The only thing that may be different is we fell asleep watching the movie and woke up hours later with the screen saver on. I can't say we've ever left a movie running through the credits to the very end before now.

How to transfer movie from laptop to ipad

how to transfer movie from laptop to ipad??

Connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of iTunes to select and sync your film the iPad's Videos app. If it says that it isn't compatible with the iPad then try doing Advanced > Create iPad Version and then try syncing that version over.

HT1390 Does it use data to watch a rented movie from iTunes on IPad? Is it streaming or just downloaded?

You must get the movie onto your iPad somehow. If you download it while on Wi-Fi you will not use cellular data. Once the movie has been downloaded you will not use cellular data or Wi-Fi.

Moving Rented movies from computer to ipod

I need some help. I have a one year old ipod classic.
I cannot seem to move rented movies from my computer to my ipod.
When I plug my ipod to my computer and hit the movie tap, I do not see the movie.
The move is showing on my computer, but it does not give me a choice to move it to my ipod, like I have seen on other help sites.
Do I need to turn something on my ipod?
I have loaded TV shows to the ipod and watched them, but I cannot move the rented movies.
I checked to see if I have the updated software, and I do.
Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?
Thanks

Hi,
The iPod you have (incidentally, the same one I have) can essentially watch TV shows, Movies, and Music Videos, but no rental movies. I was met with the same disappointment when I discovered I cannot put rented movies onto my iPod. It is sort of a shame, as I'm not entirely convinced there's a hardware element missing from my iPod preventing this from being supported.
Sorry I didn't have better news for you. You might want to consider emailing iTunes Store support and seeing if there's some way they can compensate for this, as the file purchased is not compatible with your device. Since the files are set to disappear after a certain amount of time within beginning playback, I'm almost sure they'd be able to determine whether you've viewed the movie yet.

How can I transfer a rented movie from iPhone to iPad both on iOS 5

Ever since I upgraded my iPad to iOS 5.0.1 I have been having a few problems, one is that Safari randomly shuts down, another is that this notice board randomly shuts down and today my biggest problem is that iTunes shuts down as soon as I choose movie, so that I am unable to rent a movie from iTunes.
I thought if I downloaded to my iPhone 4 which is also upgraded to iOS 5 that the cloud would automatically synch to the iPad .
That didn't happen, is there a way of making this happen?

Thanks iCrizzo. I've spent ages exploring iTunes and notice boards and manuals to find out how to do this and sadly I have to agree with you. It just does not seem possible.

How to get rented movie from PC to iPad

I had a problem with a rented movie.....when I go to it on my iPad it won't let me play it then when I go to the little cloud underneath the play button it tells me to that the movie is rented but not downloaded.....where do I go on my iPad to manage downloads? Then it downloaded on my computer and now I can't get it over to my iPad
Please help

Unfortunately, rented movies cannot be transferred from the device onto which they were downloaded.
If you wish to watch it on your iPad, I would recommend using the "Report a Problem" link on your iTunes Store invoice. Apple will then, hopefully, make the rental available to you again for download within a day or two. It is worth making sure that you have sufficient storage space available on your iPad for the movie, and note that you will need a WiFi connection to download it.
Sorry I don't have more positive news for you!

How to get movies from laptop to ipad mini

I have roughly 100GB of movies (mostly AVIs) on my laptop. They are not purchased via itunes. I am getting an ipad mini 16GB. How can i best deal with movie transfers so i can watch movies on the ipad mini. I know there is little storage on the mini, and i know i will probably have to convert to mp4s, but can i use an alternative storage that would both store movies and enable me to watch them on the mini??
Many thanks.

You can't import movies from DVD directly into iTunes like you can with a CD. The process is much more complex and will require the use of third party software.
You'll first need decrypting software to remove the encryption on the DVD.
Then you'll need conversion software to convert the decrypted files into an iPod friendly format.
Sometimes, both of those tasks can be accomplished with one piece of software. (Before anyone mentions it Videora iPod Converter is NOT an all-in-one package. It does NOT decrypt DVDs.)
PQ DVD seems to be popular for Windows users, as well as ImTOO.
Many other titles have been mentioned in this forum. Your question gets asked, and answered, a lot.
Here are some search results for you to review. There's great information contained in these previous posts.

TS4223 Renting Movies from iTunes on iPad

I have a foolish question, I rented a movie from the iTunes store directly to my iPad. The movie downloaded, but now I have no idea where to find it or play it. Thank you

Welcome to the Apple community.
Have a look in your video app.

Video/Rented Movies from iTunes on iPad 2

I rented a movie from iTunes to play on my iPad2. After downloading (3+ hrs) and syncing, the movie appeared once under my Video App. I thought I was set. I went to watch the movie the next day and the Video App says that there are No Videos. It doesn't expire until the end of April, so I thought I messed up. I went back to my computer and found the movie in iTunes and resync'd my iPad. Again, it showed up once then disappeared from the Video App. I reset my iPad, to no avail. Anyone have any ideas why it is doing this? I have never even started playing it.

Once you begin watching a rented movie, you must finish within twenty-four hours.

You can't. A rental done on an Apple TV can't be played anywhere else.

Problems watching rented movies from Apple TV.

I'm having trouble watching a rented movie on Apple TV. The movie loads, but when I play the movie it gets "hung" and wont play. I've upgraded to the latest update and have tried re-starting Apple TV with no luck.

You can go to this page - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/download/ and read the info available - if none of that helps then use the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom - you will be directed to - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/browser/. From that page you will be asked to fill in various info. Very painless but you have to fill in the blanks.
