Need move iTunes movies to an external hard drive. I would like to backup my iTunes videos on an external hard drive when I want to delete iTunes movies on my computer to save space on it. Asked by Damien at Apple Support Communities.

If you have got a large iTunes library, it's crucial for you to backup all this content. iTunes users can also backup iTunes media library to save space on devices. As we all know, you can re-download some purchased content, like music videos, movies and TV Shows from the iTunes Store. But you can't re-download iTunes Rentals. To make sure you never lose any of iTunes content, you need to back up your iTunes media files regularly. iTunes allows you to backup your media library directly. However, you must restore your backup files from the external drive to your computer and you can't play these content on the PC directly.

Things you should know about iTunes Purchases and Rentals

As we all know, movies, TV Shows and Rentals you got from iTunes, protected by Apple FairPlay digital rights management, are in M4V format that can be readily synced to a video-capable mobile device, such as Apple TV, or on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. A single device can contain purchased content from up to five accounts, iTunes will not allow you to add data from a sixth account.

If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can't move it to any other device. If you don't start watching it within 30 days, you must rent it again. Movies you rent disappear from your iTunes library when the rental period ends.

Thus, backuping iTunes movies to an external hard drive and playing those files directly are two main problems to be settled.
