Q: So what if a movie purchased on iTunes is not showing up on the AppleTV?

I purchased a movie on an iPad. It showed up briefly on iTunes and AppleTV but then disappeared. It was transferred it to iTunes on sync, so now it is there, but it doesn't show up on the AppleTV with my other purchases.

 

Confused!

    Instructions in HT2519 are no help, AppleTV shows all my purchased movies (all originally downloaded to iTunes) except my latest purchase.

     

    Article HT5085 indicates that all media types are available "in the Cloud" in Canada, although a postscript on Movies indicates "1Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud." As this is a newly downloaded movie, I suspect that caveat does not apply.

    I'd give it a little time, I noticed one I bought last night didn't show up straight away.
