Rented a movie and it take 60 minutes to download, will this ever be fix or am I doing something wrong?

Every time I rent a movie on my new apple tv it always take 1 hour to down load, am I doing something wrong? can this issue be fixed?

You need a faster internet connection. After I upgraded to a 6 meg connection that probelm went away.
How fast is your internet connection?

  • HT1848 I rented a movie and the iPad it's not downloading it :(

    I rented a movie and the iPad it's not downloading it suddenly stop
    I'm been tying to re download it but doesn't work   

    Try:
    If you rented it directly on the iPad then it should have downloaded into the Videos app - if you can't find it in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

  • Where is the download button on the ipad.  I rented a movie and cannot watch it till it downloads

    Can someone please let me know how I can download a rented movie to my ipad again.  It appears it failed to download to my ipad, when I attempt to watch it states to download it again.  That feature is not on my ipad.  The download area only shows up when an item is downloading.

    Hello there, cls1234.
    If you rented your movie on your computer you can check on your computer for available downloads. This Knowledge Base article provides how to check that:
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
    If you downloaded it on your iPad itself, try these steps to see if you can still play the file:
    iOS: Understanding multitasking
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4211
    If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
    Check for app updates.
    Force the app to close.
    Restart your device.
    Update your iOS device.
    Learn more about troubleshooting apps.
    If the issue persists use the following Knowledge Base article to report your issue to iTunes Store Support:

    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • TS2934 I rented a movie and it takes forever to load???

    when I go to play it after the apple tv has been turned off it take 3 hours to load. So now I have waited 6 hours total to try to watch a movie. I only have 20 hours left.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    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.

    That certainly doesn't sound right, but it's such a fundamental part of file sharing that it needs further investigation.
    First thing to check is whether guest logins are available, and whether you're actually logging in as a guest rather than a registered user when the incorrect password is used.
    The server's logs (or Server Admin) should be able to confirm this.
    While I might expect an incorrect password to reject the login, if you have guest access you're essentially saying you don't care about authentication anyway, so it might be the issue.
    The second thing to check is whether the same happens on other forms of login to the server, e.g. ssh, SMB, etc.
    That will help identify whether the problem relates to AFP or something more global on the server (e.g. there may be a local account for userA and userB that's being used rather than the Open Directory account you expect.

  • My new iPod Touch is iOS 6.0.1 but will not update to 6.1.3.  I have attempted the OTA and the iTunes update methods but both are not updating the iOS.  Am I doing something wrong?

    I meant to mention that it is a 16gb 4th gen iPod.

    Yup.  Some unknown error according to the message and an error code that does not list on the Apple support pages.  I am updated on Windows 7, iTunes, and have no other USB devices connected.  I tried to follow any other advice that Apple listed but nothing helped.  The OTA update acts like it is updating and even reboots the device but once it is fully booted, I check and it still says current version 6.0.1 and the check update still shows that 6.1.3 is available.  I am giving up and taking it back to Sam's where I bought it yesterday for a full refund.

  • When I plug in my SD to lightning adapter for the iPad retina display, nothing happens. I've tried about 50 times, and one time it magically worked, so I know it's possible. Am I doing something wrong?

    I just bought a new iPad with the SD to lightning adapter to upload pictures. When I plug it in, nothing happens. I have tried it with and without the SD card inserted when I plug it in, I've tried restarting it, I've even called Apple support and the woman hadn't even heard of the adapter. One time, it did work, so I know it's possible. I didn't do anything special that time. Every other time it hasn't worked. One time I got a message that said the device was not compatible. I bought them together and the salesman said they work together. Any advice?

    For some reason the lightening adapter version can be buggy.
    A few tricks with mine (mine is the old 30 pin version but the premise is the same). You can give the iPad a reset. Sometimes that clears things up.
    Also, if the adapter is empty then it doesn't show up, because there's nothing to make it show up. If the files on there aren't formatted correctly then they won't show up. (if you're trying to use the adapter and a card to transfer photos to your ipad, they must follow a very strict naming convention or they're not seen)

  • Why can't i access my Apps that I downloaded through iTunes. I believe I'm doing something wrong and not that the issue is iTunes itself

    Occasionally ill try downloading an App through my Macbook Pro 13.5 & it directs me to iTunes to be downloaded. So, I go to iTunes and download the App I need. For instance, Amazon. I go into 'My Apps' in iTunes and try clicking on one of my DL Apps, but nothing happens. Why can't I access the Apps, which I downloaded through iTunes.?I believe I'm doing something wrong and not that the issue is iTunes itself.  I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. I am due for an upgrade from that software and also an upgrade for iTunes as well, but that shouldn't be the problem. I've tried everything on my end to troubleshoot. I don't really have the time during the day to call in and troubleshoot, so thats why I'm asking the community. Please help with this problem if anyone can. Thank You!

    Once you download an iOS app, you cannot run that app from the computer. That can only be run from an iOS device. You cannot download Mac Apps from the iTunes App Store, those are downloaded from the Mac App Store. Two different places. If you want a Mac app that will run on your Mac, you need to download that from the Mac App Store. iTunes App Store only has iOS apps that work on iOS devices, iPhone, iPad, or iPod.

  • I'm backing up my new iphone 5 from icloud and it's taking forever to download my photos. It being going for four days. Am I doing something wrong?

    I'm backing up my new iphone 5 from icloud and it's taking forever for my photos to download. It's been going for 4 days. It's downloaded 1400 out of 1900 photos. Am I doing something wrong?

    I think you may not using the right technical terms.  When backing up to icloud, there is no way you'd get a message saying things will be wiped.  This message may be displayed when you are performing a RESTORE from a backup and then trying to cancel it.
    If you are doing a restore, then you can reboot and restore again.

    Downloaded a movie from iTunes to my iPad. 2 minutes into the movie it stopped and My Videos is stuck in black screen mode. So basically rented a movie and never watched it.

    The EXACT same thing happened to me last night!  Rented a movie; it had barely started and then froze.  When I touch the video app icon, all I get is a blank, dimly lit screen.  None of the other videos I own will display either.  Was your problem ever resolved?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • What do you do if you rent a movie and can't watch it due to the download speed. Refund from Apple?

    Two questions:
    1. Is it normal to take 555 minutes to download a movie from Itunes ?
    2. I have rented several and can't watch them because of a long download time. What do you do

    Test your sustained internet speed at speedtest.net.  See what your result is - if you have a very slow connection it's not really Apple's fault but they don't publicise the requirements that well (yes you can find them in footnotes etc but they're not in the main sections of product descriptions).
    HD needs 6-8 Mbps for near instant playback.  I only get 4 Mbps  - it takes 40-45 mins for a film to prebuffer.
    Fort SD you'll get away with slower speed of around 3 Mbps.
    The problem with the AppleTV 2 is that once a download starts, doing other things with the unit unfortunately often erases the downloaded part so when you go back to see how long it'll take it starts over again.
    You can try changing rentals from HD to SD in Settings for iTunes store, but tyhis will not apply to things already rented.
    If your speedtest.net result is good, then it may be another issue entirely and you may want to take it up with Apple.
    You can also rent some titles in iTunes and then stream them once they're downloaded which allows you to use AppleTV 2 for other things in the interim - they appear on AppleTV 2 under Computers>Your iTunes Name>Rentals.  Not all things are available in iTunes though.
