Renting Movies on Itunes

If I rent a movie from Itunes on my MacBook Pro can I watch it on my Ipad or can rented movies only be watched on the computer you download it on. What about purchased movies too? Thx.

HI David...

Yes. You can sync the movies whether purchased or rented to your iPad.

Connect your iPad to your computer. Launch iTunes. Select your iPad under Devices on the left.

Select the Movies tab. Then click the Sync button bottom right corner of the iTunes window.

The above reference Apple article says:

If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4, iPod touch (4th generation), 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, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
