Unable to find a purchased movie on Apple TV

Any updates on this?

This isn't about downloading a movie for offline view.

This is about an old purchase not appearing on Apple TV library.

When you try to repurchase it it says "You've already purchased this. Do you want to download it again for free?" - when click yes nothing happens.

Help pls

There should be a small cloud icon you can click on to start the download. When clicked on the main image in your library, the cloud icon should turn into a checkmark. If you click on the movie poster to open the movie, there should be a circle with a "stop" square in the middle, that is the download progress bar. The circle will show a thicker section around it as it downloads.

Full disclosure, I tried it on a couple of different movies myself, and it's not actually downloading. There may be an issue with the iTunes Store at this time preventing the download.

The download circle just disappeared when trying to download a movie. Which is kind of strange, but is an issue with right iTunes store.

But yes, you should be able to download it, if everything is working correctly.

Was this ever resolved? I’m having the same issue. I’ve even tried to repurchase the movie, but it says it’s already been purchased and won’t download when asked. I’d gladly pay an extra $14 to not have to waste my time trying to go in circles with no solution.
