Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I rented four movies for a trip on my new iMac. I ran out of room on my 64 GB iPad, so I am buying the new 128GB iPad at the Apple Store tomorrow. How can I transfer the rentals back to my iMac so I can put them on my new iPad for my trip?
iPad (3rd generation) Wi-Fi, iOS 5.1, 64GB
I found the answer to my problem. With my iPad connected to my iMac, I clicked on the tab at the top of iTunes called "Movies." There I saw my rented movies. As I selected each rental, a button appeared with "Move" or "Delete." I selected "Move" for each movie, and they are now being transferred back to my iMac in iTunes. I did rent one movie ON my iPad and I realize that one will not transfer back to my iMac/ iTunes. Bummer for that, but at least it only applies to one of the rentals!
They now appear under "Movies" and then "Rented" back on my iMac in iTunes.
I hope this information can help someone else.
I am so happy to get my new 128GB iPad tomorrow so I can put as many movies and tv shows as I want on it for my trips!

I rented movies on my iMac & put them on iPad. Got a new iPad & need them on the new one.
