sync rented movies to ipad

I have followed all the steps to transfer my rented movie (not in HD) to my iPad2. In itunes, I have "moved" the movie over to my iPad and the bar at the bottom of itunes moved to show a larger amount of space used for video. But I still cannot find the movie on my iPad!

This is the second time it has happened to me. The first time was a few months ago and I did an ichat with Apple help... they had no answer for me, but refunded the movie rental fee. I recently upgraded the operating system on my iMac to Snow Leopard, thinking that might be the problem. But here I am again.

I also tried rebooting my iPad and doing a search on my iPad for the movie... both did not help.

You mention above "choose Videos, tap the Movies category..." when I open Videos on my iPad I do not see a place to tap for the Movies category. Can you tell me where it is?

Thanks!

the article doesn't say how to find the movie on an iPad.

when I expand my iPad under Devices in itunes, it lists the rented movie under Rentals. But I still can't find it on my iPad.

All,

I just did this for the first time. Rented movie on iTunes, opened iTunes and found it under rentals, clicked on the video image and dragged it to my iPad 2 (it transfered via Synch), once completed I opened my iPad and clicked iPod. I could not find it. Then I clicked on Videos and my rental appeared. I don't have any other videos on my iPad but it was very easy. So, steps:

• Rent on iTunes on your computer
• Click Rentals in iTunes on your computer and see the movie you rented
• Click on cover art and drag to device
• Wait for synch to complete
• Once synch completes open iPad and go to Videos
• Rentals should show up and clicking on the cover art launches the movie description and a play button.

Worked great for me. Hope it works for you all.

This worked like a charm!

Thanks

This did NOT work for me. I have tried dragging it and moving it. It syncs between my MacBook and the IPad, but does not show up on the iPad no matter what I do. I see it in i-Tunes as being on the iPad. Bummer, as I just wanted to download a new flick to take on a long flight tomorrow.

Did you look under videos on the iPad? The synche movie is sent to Videos NOT iTunes on your iPad.

I rented a movie on iTunes and it shows up on my laptop in rentals when I connect my iPad to sync and I look under movies in my iPad, there isn't any movies under "rental" to move over and sync. I watched a tutorial but I don't have the any rental movie on my iPad when connected to the laptop, yet I can see the movie under rentals on my laptop. I am confused.

Don't forget to click on Apply in the lower right corner of the window after you click on move - otherwise the movie doesn't actually get transferred. I just did it (don't do it a lot so always forget) and it worked fine, but not till I clicked on Apply.

There is no longer a move button!
