Rent a Movie on Ipad3 will not download or play

i Rented a movie on iPad 3, the download has a spot for the rental but no pic art in the video app and states that it has to be downloaded when it had already took 35 mins to download, i just want to watch the rental.

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

I rented a movie but it will not play.

I rented a movie but it will not play. I get a message saying there is a problem and then iTunes shuts down. The help screen then says to download the latest version to avoid this problem, but I already have. What do I do to be able to watch the movie I rented?

Try the following user tip:
iTunes for Windows 10.7.0.21: "iTunes has stopped working" error messages when playing videos, video podcasts, movies and TV shows

Rented two movies and it's not downloading ,what do I do,error -42110 shows up., rented two movies and it's not downloading ,what do I do,error -42110 shows up.

RENTED 2 MOVIES AND THEY ARE NOT DOWNLOADING ,THESE MOVIES WERE RENTED SINCE SUNDAY 8TH JULY.2012 ERROR -42110 KEEPS SHOWNING UP AND THE SYSTEM IS UPDATED WHAT DO I DO.

Do you get an error message when you try to download the films? If so, what does it say? (Include error message numbers if you're getting any, please.)

I have an ipad 2 and when connected to my wifi at home it will not download and play you tube videos quickly. Do I need to upgrade my connenction speed? What is the optimal speed?

I have an ipad2. When connected to my wifi at home it will not download you tube videos for easy viewing. Do I need to upgrade my connection speed? Would 3 Mbps be enought or do I need to go to 6 Mbps. I mainly use my ipad to view emails, browse the internet and watch you tube videos.
thanks - Michelle

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
There are a number of factors in the 'speed' equation. Any or all of them can affect the 'observed' speed of your connection.
1. Are you in a neighborhood full of WiFi routers (and thus, lots of WiFi interference)? I can 'see' at least 22 other WiFi routers from my living room!
2. What is the maximum connect speed and band and bandwidth available from your wireless router. Is it 802.11n or the older 802.11a/b/g? 300Mbits or 150Mbits? 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz or both? Does your router measure (QoS) Quality of Service and can it change 'channels' automatically?
3. What is the observed strength of your wireless connection? Are you getting at least 80% signal when connected? Are there other people in your family also using significant bandwidth at the same time (Netflix, streaming video, streaming audio, game systems)
4. What is the "advertised" speed of your current ISP connection?
5. What is the measured throughput of your current setup. Go to speedtest.net or use the free speedtest.net app available in the App Store. Try several times, from different locations in your home, and at different times of day and night.
I have AT&T DSL advertised at 3Mbit/sec down and 512Kbit/sec up. My Speedtest.net measured throughput is about 2.4 Mbit/sec downstream and upstream is about 0.4Mbit/sec. I'm using a Motorola Netopia 2210-2 DSL modem. I have no problem viewing YouTube videos and other mobile video content on the iPad 2. I'm connected wirelessly to a D-Link DIR-655 Gigabit router rated at 150Mbps at 2.4Ghz (only) with 802.11 b/g/n enabled. The interior of my home is within a range of 30-50 feet from the router and no more than 1 wall. It is a single level concrete slab foundation of about 1500 sq. ft. with cathedral ceilings. I have successfully streamed ESPN3.com on my MacBook at the same time my son was streaming another ESPN3.com game on his MacBook Pro. I've streamed YouTube videos while my son was watching a NetFlix movie on his Wii game system. He's also successfully used Skype for extended 'teleconferences.' None of my devices are connected to HDMI on a large screen TV. 95% of the time, I can do iChat video without any signal breakup to my son (who is at a college with a Gigabit (1000Mbit) wired connection!). 5% of the time the connection drops. We haven't tried FaceTime (designed for mobile connections to be much less bandwidth-intensive, from what I understand) simply because we both have iChat on our computers.
So for me, a 3Mbit DSL connection is absolutely adequate, given all the other parameters mentioned. As the car manufacturers say, "Your mileage may vary."

Why did the movie I rented from iTunes freeze and will not download?

I just rented a movie from the iTunes store and downloaded it. The download completed and I began watching the movie. Over an hour and a half into the movie it froze and now says an unknown error occured while downloading (even though no error message displayed before starting the movie) . Why is this? How do I get a refund or have the movie download properly? My connection is great just fyi.

As I mentioned in the first post. It shoudl be in the videos app.
Itunes is only the itunes music and video store. Nothing is stored there.
You need to open the videos app.
Have a look at the manual:
iPad User Guide (For iOS 5.1 Software)

The latest iTunes version 11.1.3.8, will not download or play. I have Windows 7

I just got a Nano Gen 7. Plugged it in to download my itunes library and my itunes program would not run. I unplugged the Nano and tried to run the program again. No luck. I restarted my computer and tried to run the program. Nothing . I uninstalled the program and reinstalled it from the website. Nothing.
HELP! Any suggestions?

I experienced this exact same issue today, when I tried to download this version of iTunes on my PC. There was an error during download. I tried to do the download again and received a RTE message that with Program:\C: Program Files (x86)\iTuneds\iTunes.exe Then, when that error is closed I get the iTunes error 7 -- iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.
I asked my daughter if she had issues when she downloaded the lastest iTunes version and she told me that she has not downloaded the newest version (11.1.3.8) because she was informed by a teacher and numerous students in her class that there is a problem with this latest iTunes download.
So it looks like many users ARE experiencing this same issue. While we haven't interviewed millions, but it is a known issue to the point that tech-savvy high school students in MA are warning all their friends not to allow the latest download. I am hoping that Apple will rectify this issue soon. I will not be downloading this iTunes upgrade on my laptop until I hear a solution that works.

Movie "Margin Call" will not download error 8008 or -50. all other movies and music will download without a problem.

any ideas? i've tried shutting down the AV and Apple firewall with no luck.

The mystery remains....
Thanks for the pointers. The file type is .mts (a proprietry sony one).
I have now found some video converter software (Wondershare and iSkysoft) at a cost. Either will convert this file for me into .mp4. This I can then import into iMovie without any problems. I've checked this on the trial versions and it worked well but without paying am left with a giant watermark in the video
The mystery (which I still havent solved) is why did 20 other .mts files import fine and then this one not?
If you could point me in the direction of some free .mts converter software that would be the cherry on the cake.
Thanks

What to do if u purchased a movie and it will not download?

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox, you WILL NOT lose any bookmarks, history, and settings. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

Rented a movie on apple tv, charged, won't play

I rented two movies on my new gen ATV, which I've done nearly 4 times per week for over a year, and now the movie won't play, I'm charged on iTunes and cannot find it. I get 'Not authorized to play on this device', which is odd since I rented from the ATV to play on the ATV. I also get a "you already rented this movie but it did not download. go to Settings, Downloads, Check for Downloads - but there is no such setting on ATV.

Found my answer here!
