Unable to watch my rented movie on apple TV but it says ive rented it already

Hi can someone help me please ?
I have purchased a Rental in itunes 2days ago, this rental is on my PC and ready to watch, however I would like to watch it on my Apple TV.
To be clear, I have not started watching the movie on any other machine.
Since a recent upgrade of the software on my Apple TV, (and to be fair I havent used the rental facility for a while) I am unable to see my rented movie.
If I find the movie through top movies and try to rent it , it tells me I have already Rented it and am I sure I want to rent it again ? But its not there to watch on Apple TV
Can anyone advice please as its very frustrating. ?
Thanks in advance

Rented movie on Apple TV but it says that there was an error loading to try again later

Tried renting a movie on Apple TV. Continue getting error message.

You can either wait until later or go to expresslane.apple.com and seek help there.

I purchased an HD movie on Apple TV but it says that I cannot access the server at this time. I try daily but this problem doesn't seem to go away. Any suggestions?

I purchased a movie via Apple TV/iTunes but it says that I cannot access the server at this time. In summary, I can't download the movie. This problem has persisted for 4-5 days now. Any suggestions? BTW, I upgraded to Yosemite on my iMac last weekend. Thanks!

You need more RAM.
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/lackofram.html
Mostly iTunes, mail, finder, google chrome, and one or two other programs.
What are the "two other programs?" The ones you named shouldn't be consuming all your RAM, even if open concurrently. But I've heard (I don't use it) 10.7 is a memory hog.
Closing open apps may not solve the problem, since that memory is still being held in reserve for them.
This problem is usually caused by a combination of low RAM and low disk space.I am very puzzled when you say you have 895GB left on the drive. That should be an enormous amount of room for the memory to page out (write) to.

I purchased movies on my iPad and unable to watch on my Mac or Apple TV

I purchase movies on my iPad and unable to watch on my Mac or Apple TV

If you purchased them, you should be able to download them to your Mac as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519, as well as watch them on your Apple TV. If you rented them on your iPad, you won't be able to transfer the rental to your other devices. To do that you have to rent them in iTunes on your Mac.

With the newest Airport firmware (7.6.1), it seems I should be able to do this.
Really? I need to check that out!
You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

I rented a movie on Apple TV but don't know where to find it and play it . Can anyone 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,
Sara

Have you tried a reboot?

Check istumbler or netstumbler to see about network interference

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

Sounds as though you have a slow internet connection.
Check on a computer at speedtest.net.
For near instant playback, you need:
2.5 Mbps for SD
6 Mbps for 720p HD
8 Mbps for 1080p HD
Any slower for a given quality and it has to buffer in order to playback without interruption.
The buffering could be minutes or hours depending on how much of teh movie has to buffer.
