Watching Rented Movies

You can rent movies in standard or high definition format from the iTunes Store and watch them on iPad. You can download rented movies on iPad, or transfer them from iTunes on your computer to iPad. (Rented movies aren’t available in all regions.)

A movie must be completely downloaded before you can watch it. You can pause a download and continue it later. Rented movies expire after a certain number of days, and once you start a movie, you have a limited amount of time to finish watching it. Movies are automatically deleted when they expire. Before renting a movie, check the iTunes Store for the expiration time.

View a rented movie: Choose Videos, tap the Movies category, then tap the movie you want to watch. Select a chapter, or just tap .

Transfer rented movies to iPad: Connect iPad to your computer. Then select iPad in the iTunes sidebar, click Movies, and select the rented movies you want to transfer. Your computer must be connected to the Internet. Movies rented on iPad cannot be transferred to a computer.
