Rented a movie on apple tv / rapidly blinking after 60mins
Hello,
so I just rented a movie on Apple TV and started watching it.
Everything was fine until about 60 minutes in, ATV lost its signal and began to blink rapidly.
So far so good.
Restoring from my TV screen won't work since nothing shows up, I can't restore via iTunes since iTunes doesen't recognize it...
...remote buttons won't work either and for some reason I can't even connect Apple TV via mini-usb to my computer.
And after all, there's still the half-watched movie I rented that I can't finish.
looking forward to some advice,
cheers.
yeah that's actually what I meant with:
"and for some reason I can't even connect Apple TV via mini-usb to my computer."
I did confuse "mini-usb" with "micro-usb", my bad.

My child accidentally rented a movie on Apple TV. Is there a way to refund the rental if we don't watch it?
How can I prevent this from happening? Is there a way to password protect future purchases?Did you try Parental Controls?
Apple TV: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls) - Apple Support
See if that does the trick: I think there's a way for you to request a password for purchases, but still be logged in. -
I have rented a movie on apple tv and wish to finish it on my mac book air. When I open iTunes on my mac book air I can not see the movie in iTunes. It is an authorised device and I can see other purchases just. How do I fix it?

trying to rent a movie on apple tv for the first time and have to authorize my computer but can't find the itunes menu that allows me to do this. any thoughts out there?
If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
If the computer's running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

I just rented a movie on Apple Tv--started to watch it on the TV then wanted to continue on my computer (MacAir) but couldn't find a way to do this. Home sharing is enabled. I pulled up the movie in the Itunes store and clicked on 'rent' but I don't want to have to pay the rental fee again.

When trying to rent a movie from Apple TV, I'm asked to verify my payment method. I don't have a credit card but I do have over $100 dollars in iTunes store credit. How do I get passed this in order to be able to rent movies again?
so i dont understand why i wouldnt be able to purchase the $14.99 movie (unless there's tax or something, but i dont think so?)
Yes, there is tax. -
I rented a movie from Apple, it shows the charge but I can't find it anywhere on my Mac or IPad...help
Which did you rent it on ? On an iPad it should have downloaded into the Videos app, if on your Mac is there a 'Rentals' tab at the top of the Movies section of your library ?

When I rent a movie using Apple TV,it takes several hours to load. At this point, I opt to watch later. When I try to watch the movie, it starts loading again and tells me that it will be ready to watch in one hour forty four minutes. This can't be normal. Is there something I am doing wrong? Any suggestions.
If it's taking several hours then that is likely due to your internet connection. You can verify at speedtest.net
6mbps required for instant 720P
8mbps for 1080P
You can switch to SD in the settings (which only requires 3mbps)
You can also check istumbler or netstumbler for interference
Make sure you are on your ISPs DNS
The reloading is normal. There is no accessible storage on ATV. The small flash is used for caching streamed content, if you access other things or turn the device off it will be flushed. -

I rented a movie on Apple TV but don't know where to find it and play it? Van someone help?
Hi cheryle36779349,
The free trial that we offer is for Acrobat (we don't offer trials of the online services). So, the first thing you need to do is download Acrobat from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html. When you launch it the first time after installing it, you should be prompted to accept the end-user license agreement.
Then, so convert PDF files to Word, choose File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,

My apple TV is connected to a DTV with an HDMI cable and to my Yamaha receiver via optic cable. We rented a movie on Apple TV and.found that the movie played, but we only got audio for music tracks. Voice tracks were silent using both TV and receiver. This only occurred on the rented video and on recorded shows on my cable DVR. previews and other content on Apple TV are fine. Any ideas??
Previews and trailers do not contain 5.1 audio.
If you have recently moved your setup, you may have inadvertently changed some of the settings on your receiver. It certainly sounds as though it is unable to play the 5.1 audio from the Apple TV. -
HT1657 I rented a movie on apple tv, how do I watch it on my iPad within the 30 days?
I rented a movie on apple tv, how do I watch it on my iPad within the 30 days?
If you rented it on your Apple TV, then from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657 :
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer. -
Just rented a movie on apple tv and it keeps starting and stopping every few minutes. have restarted in settings. have unplugged and replugged apple tv. any other suggestions?
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.
