Trouble watching a movie on my ipad.
I currently get a black screen when I try to play a movie on my ipad. I confirmed the movies are on the device and I can play youTube clips and have no problem playing music. Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

I'm trying to watch a movie from my iPad on my tv with Hdmi cable. Do I need to do anything to the tv to make this work?
Not really. Using the correct Digital Av adapter and connecting the iPad to the Tv through one of its HDMI ports is all it takes. Of course making sure the correct input is selected in the Video source selection on the TV.

i want to watch a rented movie on my ipad while I am travelling. Do I have to download the movie from itunes from my ipad or do I access itunes from my desktop then just sync my ipad to watch the movie on my ipad?
Yes that is correct. However there is one slight difference with rented content, in that you need to transfer it to your iPad rather than simply sync. You can do this by selecting the rental in iTunes from the left hand side of the iTunes window and choosing the transfer option.
Yes it will be transferred to the video app on your iPad. -

Can I watch rented movies in my ipad 2 without internet connection?
If you use iTunes to rent movies, then yes.
iTunes movies downloaded and stored directly to your iPad and if you don't start playing a movie, stay on your iPad for 30 days.
If you start to play a downloaded, rented movie on your iPad, then it will expire in 24 hours.
Other services, like Amazon, Netflix and Hulu need an Internet connection to stream their content. -
If you rent a movie through iTunes, can you watch the movie on your iPad if you not in an area that does not have wifi or 3G access? Such as on an airplane, etc...
Yes - as long as the movie has totally and fully downloaded onto the iPad.

I have started watching a movie on my iPad (last gen) on vudu , and started the AirPlay and I can hear it but am not seeing the movie. Where do I go to see it or what am I not doing?
That is normal. Not all apps are enabled for airplay, this is up to the developer to do.

HT1657 can i watch rented movies on my ipad with no wifi? Like on a plane trip?
can i watch rented movies on my ipad with no wifi? Like on a plane trip?
Yes. although you do occasionally hear about people having problems. If your trip is less than 24 hours, it might be a good idea to start the movie while you're connected to WiFi (which will start the rental clock ticking) and pause it. You're not supposed to have to do this, but some people swear it prevents the occasional glitch. I've only rented a couple of movies and they worked find on the plane.

As has been discussed on these forums thousands of times, Adobe does not make a flash player for iphone/ipad/ipod and likely never will.
You can do a forum search and find countless posts on this. -

Getting error message when trying to watch a movie on my iPad
I purchased a movie through iTunes for my iPad. I was able to watch the movie a few times now I'm getting a error message every time I try and watch it now, "you do not have permission to access the requested resource". What can be do to fix this problem?
Is the movie a movie downloaded from iTunes? The iPad can only play certain movie files. Where have you downloaded the movie from? Some DVDs or other files from other internet sources may not work with the iPad.

Can I watch rented movies on my ipad on an airplane?
About to take a very long flight and want to watch some rented movies on my ipad - I just read somewhere online that I can't do this without a wifi connection on the airplane - is this true? How can I do this? Thank you.
Thanks for your responses - maybe I didn't put the question exactly right. I know that I need to be connected to download, but I've heard that you need an internet connection to watch the downloaded films so that Apple can start the clock on the rental. I've read a lot of stuff online that suggests that to watch rentals on an airplane you've got to start the film on the ground where you've got a connection and start the clock. This seems like a crazy work around for what must be a pretty popular activity for an ipad.
I've looked at the Apple FAQ and haven't found any clear answers to this question. Can anyone clarify this one? Thanks again. -
Error when watching a movie on my iPad.
I have a movie (.mp4) on my PC (which wasn't purchased via iTunes) and I wanted to put it onto my iPad Mini (iOS 7.0.6). I put the video into the iTunes library and transferred it to my iPad and it was fine. When I went to watch it on my iPad however, I tapped the movie and the usual video player came up, but then it gave me the following error message:
"The operation could not be completed
An unknown error occurred (-12894)"
If anyone could help, that would be great.
Thanks,

HT1498 Trouble watching rented movie on Apple TV
I have rented movies through my laptop several times and transferred them to my Apple TV to watch them. However, I rented one the other day and after I transferred it and pulled it up to play it, I got the message that I wasn't authorized to do so. However, the other movies I've rented I can play without a problem.
Does anyone know how to fix this?I am having the same problem. Rented a movie tonight. Downloaded it to my ipad but when I try to airplay it to my Apple TV, I'm only getting sound. I have checked my Apple TV is updated, I restarted it and unplugged it for 30 seconds. On my Apple TV I checked itunes for rentals and it says there is nothing there. The only thing I have not tried is restarting my ipad. It's an ipad 2 btw. If I get it sorted out, I'll let ya know how.

HT4108 How can I watch my movies on my iPad without Wi Fi?
From iTunes
As long as the films have been fully downloaded to your iPad, or you've synced them from your computer's iTunes, then you should be able to watch them in the Videos app without needing to be online
