Unable to download movies on iPAD 2

This is such a prevalent problem and none of the many suggests DO NOT WORK! APPLE is becoming like Microsoft - incapable of appreciating customer application needs, ignorant to software glitches and arrogant when obfuscating root cause solutions. FIX THIS PROBLEM (& other iOS issues) or I will just subscribe with Amazon for movies and F&@$ iTunes!

FIX THIS PROBLEM

You already know that I'm just a fellow user, and that these are user-to-user forums, how do you expect me to 'FIX THIS PROBLEM' ? And do you think shouting will help get fellow users to try and help you ?

You are right that shouting is not necessary but Apple is particularly bad in their customer service for these types of issues. I have two movies that I rented for a trip that stopped downloading and now I can;t get them. Apple will probably get back to me in a couple of days and essentially repeat what is on their help page. Pretty useless. And most of us don;t have time to hang out at a Genius bar. Getting what you pay for ought not be this difficult.

The Downloads tab in the iTunes Store app on your iPad only shows when there are downloads happening / queued / paused. If the download hasn't completed (e.g. it's not in the Videos app for playing) then go to the Purchased tab in the iTunes Store and (re)download it. If it's not showing there (assuming that it's a purchase, not a rental), check to see if you've hidden it from the cloud.

Movies should download to Movie folder OR under PURCHASED whether you rent/buy

Rentals won't show in the Purchased section for redownloading, they are one-time only downloads. If they are films that you've rented, and they aren't showing on the device/computer that you rented them on, try contacting iTunes Support for a redownload : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
