Where can i find my rented movies on apple tv?

Hi, i just tried renting a movie on my new 3rd gen apple tv, and right after i entered my ccv number it told me that i have 48 hours to watch. i went to watch it right after and i found no movie to watch! could anyone tell me where i can find my movie?

Hey nocsinwhitesatin,
When you rent a movie from iTunes on your computer, then you can play it on your computer or sync it to your iPhone or iPad. For your Apple TV, you will need to find it by using Home Sharing and not looking for it in the Movies section. If you go to the Computers section on the Home Screen and follow the onscreen instructions to set it up, then you should be able to find the rental and watch it on your Apple TV. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • Where can I find a rented movie

    i rented a movie and my watched on Ipad and now I but I cant find it.

    How long ago did you rent and watch it ? You have 30 days from renting to watch a film before it expires, but once you start watching a rental you then have 24 hours if you are in the US, 48 hours elsewhere, before it expires - has it been longer than that ?

    How do I find my rented move on my new Apple TV?

    This thread is from over a year ago. Also, that only applies if you rented via your computer. Hence the 'computers' icon. It is accessing your computers iTunes library via home sharing, not the cloud. Rentals made on other devices can only be viewed on that device.
    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.

  • HT1657 I can not find my rented movie on my iPhone or Mac Book, says I purchased it. Where did it go???

    I rented a movie on my IPhone from ITunes.  I plan to watch it on the flight home.  HOWEVER, I can not find it anywhere, in ITunes.  Not though my phone or computer. I waited a couple of days to see if I was charged through email.  Nothing.  So tried again to rent it, ITunes is telling me I have already rented it.  So, I looked in my account and they charged me.  So the BIG question is where is my movie.  I'm leaving tomorrow, any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated.

  • Can't find the rented movies on iTunes

    I rented 2 movies few days ago, and they do show in my purchase history, and now I can't find them. Can someone please telll me where are they located?
    Thank you,
    Micaela

    Movies rented on Apple TV aren't transferable to another device. If its taking awhile to load then its an issue with your network.
    What is your speed via speedtest.net
    1080p requires 8mbps
    720p needs 6mbps
    You can change to SD in settings
    Interference can cause issues, verify via istumbler or netstumbler
    Should be using ISPs DNS (settings - network - DNS should be automatic)

  • Can't Find My Rented Movie On iPad.  Grrr!

    I rented a movie in iTunes and am trying to sync it to my iPad, which I've done many times before.  It's not working!  I transferred it to the iPad side in iTunes and it's telling me it's on my iPad, but I can't find it.  The rental icon is not there either.  I'm connected to the Internet.  I have no idea where I'm going wrong.

  • Where do i find my rented movies from itunes on my apple tv?

    I can't find the movies I rented yesterday. Are you allowed to watch them more than once? I was under the assumption that you can watch as many times as you want in the 48 hours time period.

    Hello MikeK19
    It all depends on where you rented the movie. If you rented the movie in iTunes and wanted to see it on your Apple TV, make sure that you have Home Sharing turned on and then you would need to navigate Computers and select your iTunes library and then navigate to your rental for playback.

  • Can't find a rented movie on my Windows Vista laptop.

    I looked under "Library > Movies" tabs and found nothing. Can I find it anywhere else on iTunes?
    I later searched the folder and found it under "Downloads" but still couldn't open it with iTunes or Quicktime...I guess because the file is MPEG 4 and it's not compatible. But what else can I do to be able to watch this movie? I'm new to buying/renting stuff on iTunes and getting frustrated here. Thanks!

  • I can't find my rented movie, even though restrictions are off

    I just rented a movie from iTunes, and when the download finished I looked in purchases, then in videos and I can't find it. Restrictions are off, I checked. Please help!

    You are absolutely certain that the movie is not in the videos app? Close the app and relaunch and see if it appears.
    From your home screen, double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the videos app. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
