Projecting purchased movies

I purchased movies on the ipad and now I can't project them. It gives me a message saying the connected display in not authorized to play protected movies. How do i fix this? Did I just waste my money to buy movies I can't project?

What connected display are you trying to use? If an Apple TV, you need to go into itunes and be sure it's connected to the itunes store's account, and if needed, authorize it (in the menus somewhere).

Is there any way to project an I-Tunes purchased movie with a Proyector via the I-Pad/VGA cable? without streaming it with an Apple TV?

Movie rentals that I downloaded onto iMac with Lion to do not show up on ATV 2 in menu for computers. Purchased movies show up just fine. What to do or look for?

I have an imac that is running lion and an Apple TV generation 2. I have rented a movie from itunes and it shows up on my imac in Itunes under a rental icon, and will play fine on my computer. However, it does not show up as choice to play on my apple tv. I have homesharing enabled and everything else works fine including purchased movies that are on my imac, but no where does it show rental movies.
What do I look for? What do I do to play the rental movie on my apple tv 2?

Answer to my own question:
Wait until the downloaded rental has completed its download to the imac. This took a long time for me, since it was part of several things that I was downloading at the same time.
Finally, it showed up on my apple tv. Interestingly, I was able to watch much of the movie on my iMac before the movie finished its download and was available to the ATV 2.

Really? I need to check that out!
You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

My purchased movies are no longer available to stream on my Apple TV

I purchased Apple TV (Version 3) about 3-4 weeks ago. For the first few weeks I could access and stream all of my iTunes purchased movies through my Apple TV. This week, out of the blue, when I got to Movies > Purchased I get the message "You have not purchased any movies." I have about 25-30 movies I've purchased through iTunes (mostly by redeeming Blu-Ray digital copies) and was able to stream them without issue until approximately the beginning of this week.
Does anyone know:
1. Why this might have happened?
2. How to get the movies to show up on ATV again?
My purchased television shows are there and I can use the other ATV features just fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I figured it out. Movies were hidden. Perplexed though as I know I didn't click "hide" on 38 different movies.

My purchased movies do not show up in my itunes

I only see 2 of my 30 purchased movies in my iTunes store, how do I get them to appear. I also do not see my icloud anywhere to check. Thanks

Whether you can redownload films depends upon what country that you are in, and if you've moved countries since buying them. If you can redownload them then they will show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes, or you can go into Edit > Preferences (iTunes > Preferences on a Mac) and on the Store tab tick the 'show iTunes in the Cloud purchases' and they might then show in the Movies part of your library with a cloud icon against them for redownloading. If not all films show then check to see if you've hidden any of them : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.
But ideally you'd be keeping and maintaining a backup copy of all of your purchases, any item could be removed from the store by the rights-holders at any time

Purchased movies and tv shows won't show up in iTunes on my Macbook Air

So, I have recently begun purchasing movies and TV shows through iTunes in an attempt to further enrich my Apple ecosystem (and to have awesome movies to watch on a 5.5" screen ). I have had mixed experiences with this transition and am still having issues. For example, my Apple TV worked fine with all my purchases instantly -- no problem there. My Mac Mini takes a bit but it sorts itself out in no time. My iPhone 6 Plus, however, has failed at showing new purchases in the cloud in the videos app (for example, I purchased Doctor Who Series 8 and wanted to watch an episode the other day but was disappointed to find out that it wasn't available in the cloud). My Macbook Air though.. absolutely no movies or tv shows show up in iTunes. I can download them from the purchased section of the iTunes store, but at 2-3 GBs an episode, and the limited memory of a Macbook, I have only condoned a desire to stream them through iCloud.
Yet I can't figure it out. Why aren't my shows and movies showing up at all in iTunes? All of my iTunes match songs show up just fine. I have checked and nothing is hidden, so I am literally stumped.
If anyone could help me understand why, that would be great. And if anybody knows what is going on with my iPhone's video app, that would be awesome too.
Thanks in advance,
Dylan

Oh alright -- I manage to resolve my own stupidity quite abruptly, actually.
Shortly after posting this, I annoying took another gander at iTunes Store settings. To my own idiocy, I must have unchecked "Show iTunes purchases in the cloud" at some point. In my defense, though, the availability of songs in iCloud threw me off quite a lot.
Ha ha -- anyways, if anyone else is having the same problem, check there.

The movies that I've purchased from Itunes do not all appear on my Apple TV list of purchased movies. Also one movie that is listed as purchased on my Apple TV does not appear in my itunes library. Anyone have a solution?

Some movies that I have purchased from itunes and are listed in my itunes library arenot listed as purchased movies on my Apple TV. Also one of the movies listed as purchased on my Apple TV does not come up in my Itunes library. Anyone know why?

Are you by chance signed in to differnt accounts on iTunes (your computer(s)) and AppleTV? Is AppleTV connected to more than one computer? When you are compairing lists of movies are you looking under the "Movies" button, or under the "Computer" button? Where all of these movies purchased though iTunes?
NOTE: The computer button only shows the content that is downloaded to your computer(s). So it will not show all the content you have purchased. Just all the content on the computer.

I have rented a movie in ITunes, however it does not show up in the movies on my ATV, but purchased movies do. What's up?

I have rented a movie through ITUNES, but it does not show up on my ATV movies menu as they have in the past in a category called rentals. In fact that category isn't shown. My purchased movies are showing up. What's up?

A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

I have a new movie rental in my iTunes account on my Mac Book Pro but does not show up on Apple TV. All my other purchased movies are there OK. Any suggestions?

It won't show up on your Apple TV until it is fully downloaded into iTunes on your computer, have you done this.

Purchased movie does not show up in Apple tv

Hello,
I just bought a movie (Valkryie with Tom Cruise)...and for some reason it does not show up in my purchased movies on any of my devices (Apple TV, iPhone) and it also does not show up as purchased in my iTunes library.
This is the only movie where this has happened. Even stranger, I could not find the movie via Apple TV (not even by search) but could find it in iTunes (bought it and it downloaded to my Macbook). Even after it downloaded, it still does not show up in my other devices.
ANyone have any ideas??

Apple has not reached a deal with all movie studios to allow the re-downloading of purchased content. The likelihood is that the movie you have purchased is from a studio that has not licensed its products for re-downloading.

Purchased movie from Itunes wont sync with Iphone but rental movie will????

I purchased a movie from Itunes and it shows up in my library movies but it wont sync with my iphone. Before I bought the movie i rented a movie to make sure it works and I liked the format so I know that it can auto sync with the iphone. In they Sync section of Itunes under videos it only has 2 headings. Rental movies and TV shows. There is no option for Movies at all so it does not even come up to transfer it over to the phone like with the rental.
I have solved the problem temporarily but would love help on a proper fix. If I check the box manual merge music and videos on the summary page I can get the movie over by dragging it from the library and dropping it into the phone but it still does not show up under the video tab but is on the phone. This then deletes all my music and I have to manually sync that as well.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using a mac book with an iphone and a move in Itunes that I actually paid for - from itunes. I just cant figure it!
Natalie

I think the layout in sync could be improved for movies perhaps putting Purchased Movies right after Rental Movies. When I am on that tab, Rental Movies (I have none and it tells me so) and then TV shows are visible on the screen with lots of blank space under. I had to scroll down to find the movie sync option (which may seem pretty obvious - but with all the white space after TV shows, I didn't notice that the scroll bar had room to scroll further). Yes, I feel a little stupid (and grateful to you for making the solution so obvious), but I do think the tab layout contributed to my ineptness.

How do I change my apple i.d. to the same as my spouse's so that we can share purchased movies, music, etc without losing all of my information associated with my apple i.d.?

We have had separate apple i.d.'s for many years but would now like to share purchased movies. Is it possible to change my apple i.d. to my spouse's?

I tunes on your computer can act as a styorage place for all of your stuff. Each device is identified seperatley, but the mu7sic app and book libraries are shared. I have not tried sharing purchased movies, but I will tonight, and will post back confirmation that movies work as well. As you sync - the material from both ibraries is presented.. You choose what you want on your device, she chooses what she wants on her device.
The olny issues that arise is when you try to download updates to apps that were purchased under her ID. In those cases you either need to know her ID, or wait for a sync - where her device would update the itunes version, that you would simply resync back to your devices.
are you guys sharing a computer now, or are you syncing to two different computers?

HT1349 I have a laptop computer with Windows 7, powered intel core i7. I am trying to download a purchased movie from ITunes. I am on wifi g. Why is it taking 17 hours to download a simple movie? This is nuts!

Question: Why when downloading a purchased movie from ITunes does it take 8 to 17 hours to download? I have an HP Laptop with Windows 7 using a core processer i7. This is the second day to try to get the movie downloaded and I still cannot watch this movie. Seems like a problem with ITunes or a scam. I use a IPhone 4 with little issues, But when using this lap top -- it is a joke.

First thing to do is get the CC off your system. Then try the direct download option linked below...
You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

I am having trouble downloading a previously purchased movie from the Cloud.

The movie in question is "The Mist." I have purchased a lot of movies from iTunes lately, and to save room on my Mac, I have moved all the movie files onto a portable hard drive and simply deleted them from my Mac. Thus, whenever I want to watch a movie, I just transfer it from my hard drive back onto my Mac no problem, and watch the movie. Somehow, "The Mist" got deleted from my hard drive, so I figured "No worries, I'll just download it from the Cloud and get the file back. I've done it before!"
iTunes does this frustrating thing where even if you delete the video file from your computer, the movie thumbnail still shows up in your movies library, and I guess the Cloud considers this as you still having the movie on your computer, because when I went to my purchase history, it said the movie was already downloaded on my computer, when in fact it was not (it also said this for all my other movies, which are not on my computer but on my PHD). Only after I deleted the thumbnail for the movie did it show up under "Not on this computer" and allow me to hit the download button. Then I get this message saying "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 80 days." It will not let me download my previously purchased movie!
I have already tried logging out and back in again, that did nothing. Do I seriously have to wait 90 days to redownload my movie again? Like, is that a thing? What if you have a hard drive wipe, and have to redownload everything from the Cloud again; would you seriously only be able to redownload all your movies in 90 day incriments? What if I need to redownload multiple purchased movies at once, do I have to wait 90 days in between each one?
Am I the only one having this problem? If so, any help would be appreciated.
If this is not a "problem" and merely a "thing" iTunes does for security reasons, then this is a complaint. I have legally purchased this movie under the same account that I'm currently trying to redownload it through, I find it ridiculous that I should have to wait 90 days; you don't have to wait this long for downloading multiple apps/songs/books. Alternatively, trying to redownload the movie from its store page on iTunes is not an option, because as far as I can tell, iTunes does not let you redownload already purchased movies from their store page, as with apps/songs/books. If you try to re-purchase a movie, in the hopes that it will simply let you download it for free, seeing as how you've ALREADY purchased it, instead it'll gladly charge you again for movie. So no, I am not willing to purchase the movie again, I would just like to re-download it from the Cloud as I've done with other movies before it. I don't know what makes this one different.

I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/
