Can't copy borrowed movie from iTunes to iPad mini, because it's said that it is almost copied to another device, which is not true. Any solution?

I just borrowed a movie on iTunes a few days ago. Now I would like to copy that to my iPad mini, via iTunes. After a minute copying, it stops and it's said, that the movie could not be copied, because it is almost copied to another computer or device.


Can anybody help me with the problem?

Thanks!

For borrowed do you mean rented? The exact error message helps others to help you.


Rented movies can only be on one device or computer at a time, expire if not watched within 30 days and once you begin watching expire within 24 hours (US) or 48 hours elsewhere. See HT1657 - iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ). If there has been a problem transferring the content then you might want to use the report a problem links in your account history to contact the iTunes Store support team.

Yes, rented. It's just said, that the movie could not be copied to the device, because it is almost copied to another comuter or device. It's just that text, no error number or something else.

I know the rules of that, but I did not even move the article in iTunes... It's just weird.

And of course I did not copied to another computer or device. The message from iTunes is just ********.
