Viewing rental videos on different computer

A couple weeks ago I downloaded a movie to rent on my (windows) desktop. since then I have purchased a newer (PC) laptop which has a better sound and video card. I want to watch this video on my new machine, but can not figure out how to do it. Any help out there? I have my computers Authorized to share everything thing. However, the movie doesn't transfer over. Thanks for you help!

You may be able to put it on an iPod or iOS device capable of playing it and then using the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes. If that's not an option or doesn't work, not without renting it again from that computer.

Viewing progressive video on different systems

Hi everyone,
I've got some 24P (normal, from a DVX100) video here that I'm editing, and I'm wondering what to expect it to look like when I'm finished. While editing, on my progressive (obviously) computer monitor, I'm seeing ugly interlace lines on every 2 out of 5 frames (PPPIIPPPII, or however it's ordered). My NTSC (interlaced) monitor died, so I can't check it out on that right now, but I presume it would look fine on that. I know these pulldown frames are part of getting 24P on miniDV tapes, but how do I make them less visible, or not visible at all, while viewing on a progressive device?
What if I'm watching it on a TV with progressive inputs? Will I see the pulldown frames as interlaced, as I now do on my computer monitor? Also, if I export to a web format, like MP4 or H264, how will it look? I'm messing around with the "progressive" setting in the frame controls of Compressor, but it doesn't appear to be doing anything. I can still see the interlacing.
I suspect there's something simple I'm overlooking. In my browser, it says the field dominance is set to Even. It should automatically be set to none if it's progressive, right? What might this indicate? I captured in NTSC DV.
In summary, how do I play it on something other than an NTSC monitor and not have the interlacing in the pulldown frames visible?

hmm... now I'm back to 98% I think. lol.
I was referring to 24P NTSC 29.97 and not true, 23.98 progressive. Sorry about that. So, to try and straighten up my understanding, any NTSC output sent by Final Cut Pro, through my camera/interface and sent to a composite input will be 24P 29.97 with the 3:2. Therefore, this signal should ALWAYS be sent to an interlaced, NTSC monitor? And if I want to pretend I'm watching it on an interlaced monitor, but actually use a progressive monitor, I should get a converter/interface with HDMI or composite outputs, which will then output a proper progressive signal, without the 3:2, and I will then see the image without the horizontal lines, even though my original signal has the interlaced frames?
If I'm still missing something, how do I watch my timeline from FCP on an external, progressive monitor without seeing the 3:2 artifacts, yet still using the 29.97 signal, with the 3:2 pulldown intact? There must be a way to see it without the artifacts on a progressive monitor, other than going through Cinema Tools... No? It doesn't make sense that I wouldn't be able to do this. Patrick, you were saying newer screens can handle 3:2 and deal with it?. Will just ANY recent monitor (LCD, CRT, OLED, Plasma, Anti-Matter, whatever) do this through its composite input? I have a Dell 2407 with a slew of inputs, one being composite RCA. Can I get a non-jaggie, 29.97 viewing from this otherwise progressive monitor?
Thanks for potentially the last time

How can I viewing my iPhone shot iMovie video on my computer?

I made a movie on my iPhone using the iMovie app. I uploaded it to itunes but can't find it. App message said it was in "share" section. I want to view the video on my computer.

So you have done the Copy to iTunes button in iMovie on iOS? You have to plug in to iTunes, under your device, Apps > File Sharing, and find it there. Then click Save to... and save it to your desktop. This is still in the format for iMovie MOBILE, so in iMovie on the computer, you will need to do Command + I to import, then choose iMovie for iOS project.

Safety Mode - unable to view youtube videos

Hello everyone
We are having an issue with being unable to view youtube videos.
The message comes up saying that we can not view the video because the computer is in the safety mode.
I have a K9 filter on the laptop and I am pretty sure that what I am trying to view is not at all risky so this is a bit of a pain and inconvenience. How do we exit the safety mode please? And what could be the reason that the computer is in the safety mode. Thank you.
As well as that, if I wanted to take my laptop to be looked at and to have a bit of a spring clean where would I take it? We have had it for three years now.
Thank you.

Hi
Can you please tell us which notebook model do you have and which operating system do you use?
Do you use original OS version that you got with your machine or some own OS installation?

What version of flash player do you have installed? http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

I just downloaded the new Firefox 4, rebooted, and viewed you videos re the new look and new features. Problem is, my toolbars look no different than before. The new icons you talk about do not appear on my screen. Please advise. Thank you.

The Firefox icon is the default feature for Windows Vista and 7 only, it does not apply to Windows XP users.
To have the Firefox icon instead of the Menu Bar:
View > Toolbars and UNCHECK the Menu Bar.
After that, click on the Firefox icon and you'll have the Menu Bar appear again.

HT3209 My computer meets all the requirements to view HD video content, why can I not download and view it?

I have all the minimum system requirements to view HD content on my computer. Why does iTunes tell me that I don't and cannot download my HD movies that I have already purchased? Why should I buy the SD version when my computer is completely capabile of viewing all HD content and has a very good video card with HDCP status showing that it's good?
Please help so that I can get my movies downloaded.

This is for the Windows 8-8.1 users out there: If you have the Pro version of Windows 8 and just recently upgraded to 8.1, Microsoft automatically includes a Virtual Machine package called Hyper-V client. It doesn't ask you if you want to install it, it just does.
This may also apply to Windows 7 users who may have inadvertently installed some version of Hyper-V on their computer.
The Hyper-V package installs a secondary video driver that breaks HDCP, which means you can't play HD movies even on a compliant system. You need to get rid of it. To do so:
Go to Control Panel
Programs and Features
Turn Windows Features on or Off
Uncheck "Hyper-V"
Reboot.
This applies to almost anything that requires HDCP, so if you're having trouble with Blu-Rays or Amazon Prime, that's likely the culprit.

HT1551 I ordered a rental movie on my computer and want to watch it on my 1st generation apple TV and it is not showing up there...any suggestions?

I ordered a rental movie on my computer and want to watch it on my 1st generation apple TV and it is not showing up there...any suggestions?

I had same problem last night with a movie rental not showing up under the 'Rented' tab in iTunes/Movies on my iMac: as I had no other rentals, there was no 'Rented' tab at all.
In iTunes 11, the Downloads icon only appears next to the Search bar while there is an active download. Once any downloads are finished, the icon disappears. I had no icon so I had to assume the downloading had finished (in the previous UI you could check download progress even after they had finished).
My movie rental did, however, show up under 'Rented Movies' under the 'Movies' tab in iTunes/Devices/(select any i/device) so I knew it was somewhere in my iTunes. Yet, we couldn't access it via Apple TV.
I fiddle around for a bit, restarting iTunes, restarting the iMac, to no avail. Then I did a little housekeeping and moved a different movie I'd imported awhile ago, from the 'Home Videos' tab under iTunes/Movies. Under File/Get Info, the 'Media Kind' was incorrectly set to 'Home Video' so I changed it to 'Movie'. Thus the file was moved over into the Movies tab. Hey Presto! The Rented tab suddenly showed up, and there was my rented movie!
This is the second time a movie rental did not show up after downloading. Unfortunately my husband initiated the download so we figured he must've messed up somehow as he's not as familiar with iTunes as me. Hence we opted to download the movie under a different iTunes account, which worked the second time with no problem. Needless to say the invoice for the original download had no problem in finding us, hence we were effectively being charged twice for the same movie! We have to contact apple support (such a hassle) but hopefully they will understand the issue (that's the difficult bit) and they are usually good at refunding when they finally accept the customer is genuine in their claim.
In case anyone is tempted to critique my method, we download rentals through iTune on our computer as we had too many problems trying to rent via Apple TV. Often the movie was not available to watch for many hours after it was rented, even though we'd start 'download' halfway through the day and sit down at night to watch it! We have also had problems with movies that kept stopping during viewing because it wasn't streaming fast enough. We'd give some time and come back to viewing, only to encounter the same. One time we gave gave up and tried again the next evening, only to find the movie expired. There is meant to be 48 hours after you've started viewing to resume watching a movie. Apple's only response to this was to advise we needed a broadband internet connection to stream the movie - this was despite me already telling them we have broadband.
Anyway, I hope this helps anyone experiencing similar issues with movie downloads.

Please use a flash capable browser to view this video

I can not view the videos on muscleandstrength.com. I was able to view them yesterday and am able to view them on my desktop (win 7 32bit) but not my laptop (win 7 64bit). I updated flash player, which did nothing. Restarted firefox in safe mode. Still nothing. It is only occurring on this site, but like I said works on a different computer! Still error message where video would be. "please use a flash capable browser to view this video"

Hi,
The Flash player is having inconsistent problems in different situations. You can try to temporarily view problematic Flash content inside Firefox using [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ie-tab-plus/ IE Tab +] or [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ie-tab/ IE Tab].

How many times can you connect ipad to a different computer?

I have an Ipad 1 and when connecting it to my new laptop (not Mac) it told me the device could only be connected one more time to a different computer. Are there limits on Ipads as to how many computers or times we can connect them to? Is there any way to reset this or not?

When it comes to apps, this is right, unless you use the Windows version of iFunBox (the Mac version, not even the latest version, doesn't work for direct IPA transfer). However, you can transfer / sync music / videos from several computers using third-party tools (without jailbreaking!!) with tools like SyncPod / FreeSync.
You may want to read the section "A side remark: put music / videos / other media on your iDevice without iTunes" at http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/ios-contact-management-duplicate-removal-impor texport-etc-tips-and-tricks for more info.

Backing up iPhone to different computer

Right now, I backup my iPhone and my wife's iPhone to her Lenovo netbook.
We don't have any music, videos, etc. purchased through iTunes.
The only thing we have is about 10 ringtones that I made.
Is it possible to start backing up our iPhones to a different computer without any repercussions?
Abviously I will need to transfer the ringtones I made to the new computer, but other than that, is there anything that wouldn't allow something like this to be done?
Is there anything that needs to be done as far as "disassociating" the iPhone's from the old computer?

anyone?
