Rental movie...where is it?

frustrated... I cannot find the rental movie I downloaded 2 days ago... It did download, and I did see it then. But I was not able to watch it at that time. Now that I want to watch it, it seems to have disappeared.  I can't find a "rental tab" anywhere...? Where is my movie??

Hello inapanik,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you need to locate a movie that you rented, please see the information below.  You have 30 days to start watching a rental movie, but once you start watching it, you have 24 hours to finish it.
Find movies you rented previously
Find your movie on the device you used to rent it.
On a Mac or PC: Go to the Rentals tab in the Movies section of the iTunes Library.
On an iOS device: Go to the Rental tab of the Videos app.
Using Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation): Look in the top shelf of the main menu.

  • Where would any downloaded rental movies be downloaded to on my iPad? Just spent over $40 in data top ups and nearly two days trying to a. Download a purchased movie and b. find the movie on my iPad.

    I bought this iPad (think it is an iPad 2 not actually sure, a about a few months ago. Yesterday I decided to go on iTunes store and purchase a rental movie which cost approx $6 NZD. After about 2 hours I ran out of data and the movie hadn't even downloaded halfway so I purchased more data thinking another Gb would do. Then i got a message from itunes that my ipad didnt have enough storage so i went into settings and dleeted apps and docs (apparently also deleted from icloud too) to make room for the movie. Now after purchasing another 7GB of data at over three times the cost of the rented movie it finally finished downloading and I had enough space on my iPad. But now I can't find the actual movie...I go to iTunes to purchases and view movies , to downloads and searched the title of the movie...I can see an icon of it and it is in a separate place from other purchases but it says downloaded in faded lettering. Where is it? Why have I just wastednearlyb$50 just tying to download and watch one measly movie! It is obviously some secret formula or thing I've missed...it shouldn't be so hard! The day before this I successfully downloaded a song I purchased and can listen to with no probs.  do I need another app to store downloaded movies or something?

    If you can't find the movie you downloaded on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, check inside your Videos App

  • HT1657 My rental movie downloaded in 43 minutes. Where do I go to play it. When click on rent so that I can play it a pop up message says are you sure you want to rent it again? What wow question. iTunes can not figure that this movie has not even been pl

    I rented a movie in itunes n it took 43 minutes to download. So where do I click to play my rental movie? When I click on rent a pop up says that this movie has been already rented. So where is my rental movie n where do I go to click on play?

    If you select the Movies part of your iTunes library, is there a rental tab shown on it ?

    I purchased a rental movie on my mac and can not find it on my ipad.  Where is it?

    Did you sync it to your ipad?
    If not, then do that.
    If yes, where did you look?  It belongs in the Videos app.  Did you look there?

  • HT1657 I can't locate my rental movies. Where does it get stored?

    If you've rented and downloaded it directly on your iPad then it should be in the Videos app :
    Is it in there ?

  • I downloaded a rental movie on my iPad , I can't find it. Can anyone tell me where to look?

    I downloaded a rental movie from iTunes on my iPad, I can't find it. can anyone tell me where it might be?   Thank you.

    Click on the Video App, but first make sure it transferred to your iPad by connecting to iTunes and clicking on your iPad in the left widow and then click the movie tab and make sure Sync Movies has a check in the box.

  • I just downloaded two rental movies from the iTunes store, proceeded to sync them to my iPad, and now I can't find where they landed. Anybody know where to access rental movies on the iPad? thanks

    And just in case .... You don't actually sync rental movies to the iPad....
    To transfer a rented movie from iTunes, use the movies pane in iTunes. Rented movies transfer is at the top. You must have an Internet connection to transfer a rented movie. Select the "move" arrow in the direction you wish to transfer, and click the apply button at the bottom right. Rented movies can only exist on one device at a time, they do not sync like other video, but move from iTunes to the iPad.

  • HT204370 Where is the rental movie saved?

    I have an ipad one and just dowmloaded first rental movie through itunes, but cannot find it to play? Also downloaded a tv series several months ago to  own, but cant find that either? not very good on itunes if can help please

    They should have downloaded into the Videos app (iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store) :
    If they are not in there then have you got any film and tv programme age ratings set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding them ?

  • Rental movie on iPad

    I have rented movie to go on my iPad - I sink my iPad with main computer and the rentals movie are gone on iPad and main computer that I rent them on. Where are they going? and how do I get them back on?   because I have never watched them yet  and have a good 22 or so day left before they expire. Is it my setting on computer or iPad? and I also have all the update on my iPad that are out at this point.

    See my reply to your other post : Re: I cannot find my downloaded rental on my computer.

  • HT2729 rental movie on iPad

    where do i find a rental movie transferred from mac to iPad? mac says it is synced but can't find on iPad.

    It should be in the Videos App. Launch the app and look for a rentals tab at the top and tap on it.

    I downloaded a rental movie but can't find it on the upgraded itunes page. Old home page showed a tab that read "rentals" on the left side. Anyone know how to find that tab?

    I have the same issue. Just rented a movie, and I can't find it anywhere. Where is it stored, and how do I watch it on iTunes 11.0.4 ?
    I don't see the 'rented' tab anywhere, and nothing under 'purchased'.

  • How do I play my downloaded rental movie on my ipad2?

    How do I play my downloaded rental movie on my ipad2 and where do I find it...help ?

    If you've downloaded the film directly on the iPad or synced it to the iPad from your computer's iTune then it should show in the Videos app on the iPad - it's icon looks like a film clapperboard.

  • HT1657 how to view rental movies on media player classic instead of itunes?

    I rented movie but it wouldn't play full screen in itunes and wouldn't open in other players? HELP. Is it possible w/rental movies or just purchases?

    I followed exactly what you advised, and it all worked. I did convert the files first that were .AVI ---> .MP4 (the audio and video came out beautifully when viewed). I organized my files around a bit, and then I went into Itunes---> Preferences---> Advanced---> Changed where I want to grab my movies from. It keep all my previous music, tv, movies, podcasts files that I had in ITunes, and just "added" the new content without disrupting anything in my Itunes at all. I LOVED IT...so simple in the end.
    The files did take a while to convert, but I only had to do the ones that I had that were labeled ".AVI". The program, HAND BRAKE, allowed me to set up a "batch" and I had them converting during the afternoon and into the evening.
    All in all....THANK YOU/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic__ _/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/ migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-a vail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstat ic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-ima ges/migration-img-not-avail.png
    Since whenever I open my Itunes, all the movies display well, and so my APPLE TV can now view all my "content" in Itunes. I thought I was going to have to return that APPLE TV since I couldn't figure a way around it, and all in all, it wasn't all that bad of a process to convert and then change file location in preferences.
    MANY THANKS and HAVE A GREAT WEEK

  • HT1657 Do I need wifi to watch a rental movie?

    I want to download movies on my laptop so that my child can watch on a car ride where we won't have wifi. Is this possible? Or must you have wifi to watch a rental movie?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You will only need an Internet connection to download the movie, once it is downloaded you can watch it anywhere.
