Rented movie on ipad itunes...can't find it anywhere.

Do you looking in your purchase section (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)? You have 30 days... Here is some info about retails http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1657.

You have to find rental tab in itunes to find ur rent movies,not purchase

Find library>movies and u see list of names click rental and u see ur movies...hope this help u in any way.

This has just happened to me this minute. All my rentals have disappeared. The Rental tab is gone from the Video app, only Movies and TV remain. Opened the iTunes app, no help, Rental tab not present either.

Try reboot ur ipad...home and power buttons same times until apple logo com up and then release it,if not work then plug ur ipad to ur comp to restore itunes in itunes app

I rebooted the iPad, no joy. Then plugged it to my. Macbook, it synced and backed-up, but no Rentals tab on Video app, still.

You might need to reset ur ipad.

Wow! Factory reset or deleting account information and re-entry?

You will lose ur data unless u back up ur apps to itunes(comp) and sync again once u connect ur ipad to comp after reset but im not really sure if this will get ur rental back ,if you dont want to take risk then dont go ahead, i have no any idea how u will get this back.To deleted account and re-entry i dont know if this work.

At this point I would contact iTunes by:

https://getsupport.apple.com/ServiceOptionAction.action

iTunes > iTunes store > connecting and downloading > movie rentals > chat or email with iTunes.

They should tell you what to do or how to fix it.

I know this reply is very late, but I had the same challenge. All you need to do is touch on Videos, on the bottom of your i-pad. This will open up what you need in order to find your purchased movies and/or rentals!

Brilliant! I think the issue for some is that they are looking for 'video' tab within iTunes.

Pressing sync in iTunes will not transfer the rental. The problem is that Apple's support document incorrectly refers to a sync process instead of the rental transfer process. I managed to get my rental movie to finally show up by doing the following (using iOS 10.1.1):

1. Plug your iOS device into your Mac via USB cable and open iTunes.

2. Select Films from the dropdown menu at the top of the sidebar.

3. Right click on your rental film, choose Add to Device, and click on your device. Your rental will immediately transfer to the device (see pic below). The transfer is not a 'sync' and using the word "sync" in support literature is what confuses users. Apple only allows one copy of the rental on any device at one time so even though iTunes shows "Copying 1 of 1 ... " it's actually moving not copying.

4. After the transfer completes open the Videos app (not iTunes or the App Store) on the device.

5. You should now see Rentals along with other categories at the top of the screen (together with 'Films' 'TV Programmes').

6. Press Rentals and you should see your rental movie.

Hope this helps!
