TS2934 locking up while watching the movie
when i'm watching any movies on Apple TV, the movie locks up every so often,sometimes for a few minutes @ a time
How fast is your Internet connection. According to Apple:
A sustained 8-Mbit/s or faster Internet connection is recommended for viewing 1080p high-definition movies and TV shows, 6-Mbit/s or faster for viewing 720p content, and 2.5-Mbit/s or faster for standard-definition content. Internet connection speeds may vary depending on your ISP and other factors.
By the way, I've found WIDE variations in the alleged data rate for my connection depending on which utility I use to measure the rate. One app reliably tells me 24Mbps while another reliably tells me 12Mbps and yet a third reliably states 8Mpbs. A fourth gives me readings all over the map!

HT1657 Do you need internet while watching the movie?
Do you need internet while watching it after download?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
From my own personal experience, I have found that when I turn off the Wi-Fi on my Wi-Fi only iPad, I am still able to play rented movies on it. I have tried this perhaps four or five times and in each case, this has been the result. I have also noted that other users have had the same experience as I.
However saying that I have noted a small number of users that have stated they are unable to view rented movies without an Internet connection. This knowledge base article from Apple, also suggests that an Internet connection is required. -
I had purchased a movie on my ipad while on a business trip and now I'm home on my IMac and wish to watch the movie I didn't finish on my iPad. How can I continue to watch on my IMac if I purchased and started on my iPad ?

IMac 7,1 turning internal screen off while watching a movie via output (second display), possible?
iMac 7,1 turning internal screen off while watching a movie via output (second display), is it possible with Lion?
Actually, Plex does the best job by placing a black background to the internal iMac screen it's called Blanking.
However that does not turn off the backlit which is very bright on the iMac 24" also the internal screen will draw more power that way. As you probably know running bootcamp you can turn off the internal screen while watching a movie on the external. This isn't a hardware limitation, I hope Lion has this feature. -
Alert box while watching videos/movies, etc
This has been happening for a while and it doesn't cause any problems, but I'm concerned by the fact that I don't know what it says. When I'm watching videos or movies on my MacBook there's a message box that pops up and then goes away. It goes away so fast that I literally can't even make out one word that's in it. It doesn't matter how I'm watching the movies... Netflix, Hulu, playing a DVD, etc. Has anyone seen this before and know what it's saying?
I have no idea what is the small pop up window have alert for you and this goes quickly,why dont you prepare example use ur ipad video record it face to ur mac screen hope this shown on ur ipad,u needs timing to pick this up and u can read it,u pause the recording once u saw it on ur ipad...this is ur only chance to read it.

While watching purchased movies on itunes....Movie stalls/freezes, While watching purchased
Try to reboot your computer. If that doesn't work, try deleting the movie and redownloading it (assuming no other AppleID is associated with your computer).
If neither of those work, try contacting the iTunes store. -
Screensaver starts while while watching Quicktime Movies
We've got kind of aproblem with my friend's eMac 1.25:
The screensaver starts while while watching Quicktime movies.
Does anyone know why this happens (without putting the mouse in the "screensaver-corner"!)?I didn't try it with iMovie, but this must be the same problem. And it is only a problem with the eMac, not with my iMac (G4 or G5 doesn't matter).
Changing the perfs for the screensaver to 2 hours or never isn't really the solution, because I'd like the screensaver to do his job, when the Mac is not in use (but don't like him when the Mac is in use)... -
Display turns off while watching a movie!
why does the display on my X1 Carbon turn off while watching a film on battery? I have never had a laptop do that before. Surely when a movie is running it should no not to count the period of inactivity and trun of the display?!! This is meant to be a modern machine.

I downloaded a rented movie in hd to my ipad2 but can't find it to pay through my apple tv now. How do I watch the movie?
Rented movies downloaded to an iOS device cannot be transferred to any other computer or iOS device. Are you sure that a rented movie, downloaded to an iPad, can be airstreamed to an Apple TV?

i rented a movie from itunes. i was on a plane when i tried to access it...but got an error message saying "cannot access itunes store". i had a wifi connection but had to purchase internet to watch the movie on the plane. never had this problem with my ipad and never have it when i download tv shows. what's the deal with movies?
It's not normal, presuming that the movie downloaded completely, but it has come up from time to time. I've not been able to figure out from the various posts why rentals work for most but in some cases insist on a connection to the iTunes store. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Perhaps they can provide an explanation, though you may just get canned and rather inapplicable replies about how to rent or download.

I rented a movie on my Apple TV and now I also want to watch the movie on my Mac. How do I access the rented movie without having to rent again from the Mac?
Welcome to the Apple community.
If you rent a movie on the Apple TV, then it can only be watched on the Apple TV. If you want to watch movies on multiple devices, you need to download it to your computer, where you can then transfer it to other devices or stream it to your Apple TV as well as watch it from your Mac. -
I rented a movie (dark shadows) but I can not see it, because a message appear "Problem loading...try again later". Is not a problem connection. I tried a lot of times to watch the movie and I didn't can.
Thanks

Yes, thank you. My apologies, I was typing one handed and did not add that.
Anyway, I have tried deleting the cache, deleting my pics and then re-syncing, etc. and nothing is working This is very frustrating, as I had no problems up until about 2 weeks ago, and now all of a sudden, I have this issue......UGH!
