Apple iPad iOS 4.2 - Manual (Page 70)

Watching Rented Movies
You can rent movies in standard or high definition format from the iTunes Store and
watch them on iPad. You can download rented movies on iPad, or transfer them from
iTunes on your computer to iPad. (Rented movies aren’t available in all regions.)
A movie must be completely downloaded before you can watch it. You can pause a
download and continue it later. Rented movies expire after a certain number of days,
and once you start a movie, you have a limited amount of time to finish watching it.
Movies are automatically deleted when they expire. Before renting a movie, check the
iTunes Store for the expiration time.
View a rented movie: Choose Videos, tap the Movies category, then tap the movie
you want to watch. Select a chapter, or just tap .
Transfer rented movies to iPad: Connect iPad to your computer. Then select iPad in
the iTunes sidebar, click Movies, and select the rented movies you want to transfer.
Your computer must be connected to the Internet. Movies rented on iPad cannot be
transferred to a computer.
Watching Videos on a TV
To watch videos on the large screen, you can connect to your TV using AirPlay and
Apple TV, or use a cable to connect iPad directly to your TV or AV receiver. Use the
Apple Component AV Cable, Apple Composite AV Cable, Apple iPad Dock Connector to
VGA Adapter, or other iPad-compatible cable. Apple cables and docks are available for
purchase separately in many countries. Go to www.apple.com/store.
For more information about connecting iPad to a TV or projector, see “Video” on
page 156.
Connect using AirPlay: Start video playback, then tap and choose your Apple TV
from the list of AirPlay devices. If you don’t see your Apple TV, make sure iPad and
Apple TV are connected to the same wireless network. If the Apple TV requires a
passcode, you’ll be asked to enter it.
While video is playing, you can exit Video and use other apps.
To return playback to iPad: Open Videos, then tap and choose your iPad from
the list.
