I see/play TV Shows in iTunes view but not on iPhone

When I connect my iPhone4S to my MBAir and view the iPhone's files (via iTunes) I see that there are 37 "TV Shows" listed. I can even click the play button and they play (in iTunes, on my computer). My iPhone shows (at the bottom of the iTunes window) that it thinks it has a lot of "Video" (over 3.5 gb) stored on it. However, when I fire up the "Video" app on the phone itself there are NO videos.
Sync doesn't help since these videos are not on my MBAir -- they are only (now) on the iPhone.
Am I using the wrong app to view them? How can I get to them on my iPhone, to watch them there?
Thanks!

I rented a movie, watched it download, now can't find it to play. Shows in my purchases, but not my library. How do I find it to play?

Rented a movie, watched it download, now I can't find how to play it. It shows in my purchases, but not my library. How do I find it to play?

I have looked in the sidebar, and don't see a "rented" tab at all, and my movies section is still empty. Am I looking in the wrong place? Big blue sidebar on the left? Thanks!

Custom Ringtones Show Up in iTunes Folder, but Not on iPhone

I've recently upgraded from a 3GS to a 4G. I have a few custom ringtones that I created from .MP3 files (converted to .m4r files). I had these same ringtones installed on my 3GS and want them on my 4G.
I transferred to my 4G by dragging them from the Windows folder to the iTunes device folder. The 5 ringtones show up in iTunes under the Ringtones folder. Only one of them shows up on the phone as being transferred.
I had done this a couple of days ago, and noticed then that only one ringtone was being shown under Custom Ringtones on my phone. Tonight, I uninstalled them all, rebooted my phone, and then re-dragged the files as per above. Again, all show up in the folder on the iPhone in iTunes, but one shows up on the phone. This is now a different one than a couple of days ago.
Soooo... what can be causing this? The files are apparently on my phone, but not appearing in the usable list. I need some help in resolving this. I've looked through these forums and seen similar issues. There doesn't seem to be a 'proper' way to do this. I manage my phone manually, and have not done a 'sync' with the ringtones as they show up in the folder... (I don't really see the need to sync if they're appearing in iTunes as on the phone).
Thanks!

Hi

any help??
by the way, i have read all the previous messages and i cant find any ringtone folder under iTunes folder

My recent podcasts are showing on iTunes site but not in podcast app or iTunes

Hi,
I've never used this forum before, but am struggling to find out what is going wrong with my podcasts.
I have a podcast that has been running fine for some time, but now no longer updates in the podcast app, or in my podcast subscriptions in iTunes.
This is the podcast >>> https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/slam-radio/id584845850
The last episode I can see in my iTunes podcast subscriptions and podcast app is episode 55, yet the most recent, episode 59, shows fine on the itunes website.
Is there a reason that I can listen to the most recent episode via the itunes site, but my subscriptions wont update?
It seems that the problem has been experienced by several people.
As far as I'm aware, I havent changed the way I do anything.
Any help would be appreciated.

The 'itunes:summary' tag for the episode of 19th January ends like this -
"This year, I will exercise more.&quot...</itunes:summary>
As the '"' tag has been truncated you have an ampersand (indicating the start of a code sequence) but the code is never finished. This renders the rest of the feed unreadable, and as that includes the closing tags the entire feed is invalidated and iTunes cannot read it.
There's no reason to have all these '"' tags - just type " (iTunes won't render the code but will display it, which looks messy) - but in any case don't let a code be truncated like that or you will have this problem.
Incidentally it's better all round to start your own thread when you have a query, rather than tag on to an existing one which can cause confusion if a discussion is ongoing. You're also more likely to be noticed.

Air play gives audio from itunes (sometimes) but not browser

Apple TV used to work fine from all devices on all apps/browsers. Now I get video but not audio from my Firefox browser via Air Play & if the settings are just right then I can get audio from iTunes ONLY. HELP!

UPDATE:
Well, the nice folks at AJA were kind enough to send another card out.
It just arrived today. I swapped it out with the older card, and then - - - - - the problems still persist.
The computer revved up into turbo mode, and there are still a few glitchy things happening with some basic functions in OSX. (I even did a re-install before putting the new card in).
Checked / updated the firmware / etc.
Starting to think this is a MAC issue, but dont' know how to proceed.
Thanks so much for the help already, but I'd sure love to see this problem resolved once and for all somehow...
Ideas?

Meetings showing up in Outlook but not on iPhone

What could cause meetings to be on the Outlook calendar but not showing up on the iPhone celendar? Not all do it, just some.

We have the same problem. Tested on multiple iPhone 3Gs running 3.0 iPhone software.
We have narrowed the issue down to:
1) Accept meeting on iPhone - works fine, shows up both on exchange and on iphone
2) Accept meeting on exchange (via Outlook, etc) - shows up in outlook, does not show up on iPhone.
3) If you delete the exchange account, re-set it up from scratch. It will resync the calendar fine. But, it's just a short term fix. The next time you accept a meeting from your computer - it will not sync the meeting up to the iPhone.
This has been tested multiple times, on multiple phones and exchange accounts.
We have several 2G phones that have been using the Exchange system for years and they worked fine until the 3.0 software hit. (Same bugs above.)
At this time, all signs point to a 3.0 software bug. I hope someone official at Apple is aware of this? Has someone officially submitted it as a bug? (Where do you do that?)

Folio showing in Content Viewer, but not when published in Custom Content Viewer... please help...!

I shared a folio to review it in the Content Viewer and everything looks ok, but when published (public / free) custom viewer (v24) doesn't show it. What could be the problem?
Thanks, and excuse my english...

I am guessing two things:
1. You created the folio and uploaded to id [email protected] Then you shared with [email protected]
What is the Title id mentioned in DPS App builder. If it's [email protected], it will not work.
2. Do you have multiple folios with the same product id.

Shows in Live view but not in Browser

Sorry if this is quite a newbie question but im new to Dreamweaver. I have changed the CSS for the navigation and slider in a free css template i have downloaded, it renders perfectly in live design view on Dreamweaver but no change is apparent on any browser i open it in? There is some Jquery script linked to the slider im not sure if this would be effecting it in any way?

You need to probably do one of the following:
1. Save the file before previewing in a browser
or
2. In your Preferences (Edit -> Preferences), scroll down to the 'Preview in Browser' option. There, check the box marked :Options Preview using temporary file.

HT201322 itunes 11.0.3 - in my iTunes library I can no longer see purchased TV shows and Movies that are not downloaded to my computer. also In my Itunes account i have no hidden TV shows or Movies

I'm running itunes 11.0.3 -
in my iTunes library I can no longer see purchased TV shows and Movies that are not downloaded to my computer.
In my Itunes account i have no hidden TV shows or Movies
I used to be able to view all cloud and downloaded content. I no longer can.

There used to be option to show items that are in the cloud in your library, but I can't find where that now is (unless it's been removed). You should be able to see what items that you can re-download via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (at the top right of that there should be a 'not on this computer' button)
Edit : Just seen your reply, though I don't appear to have that setting on mine.

I can't play downloaded shows from iTunes in QuickTime.

I've downloaded Quicktime, installed it. And it wouldn't play my shows from iTunes. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled and still wont play, keeps saying "The movie requires Quicktime, which is not included in this version of iTunes. To play this movie, install QuickTime".... :/ I have a Windows 7 Dell laptop.

Hello ifeoluwaloju,
The article below details how to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and it's related components. Doing so should help resolve this message.

Apple, Pfft!!! (Another iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes post)

How in the world does Apple market the iPod, etc... as if 10-year olds and grandmothers can operate the technology, when having viewed these message boards for 10 hours yesterday, it seems as even the tech savy people who can make a computer out of two pieces of bread and a piece of bologna have to wrack their brains to make it come a step closer to actually working. Blah!!!
Anyway, the problem that I am having is the problem that a lot of other people are having and seems to be the main theme at the moment.
I am unable to have iTunes recognize my iPod. My PC will once-in-a-blue-moon recognize the iPod as its own drive in Windows Explorer, but mostly all I get is the big freeze. Every time I connect my iPod to the USB, all of the programs cease to operate until I unplug it. I am not having memory problems either.
Here's what I've done. I have updated the iPod Updater to the 06-23-06 version. I was able to get it to update the software on my 60GB iPod. I got all excited only to then have it give me several error messages 1) an internal manager error and 2) some unable to dock or something like that (sorry I'm not at my home cpu.) Once while I was doing the 4-hour battery charge my iPod came up in the source list in iTunes, but I have been unable to have it be rerecognized.
I've unistalled and reinstalled iTunes and the iPod Updater over 10 times and have gone through the 5 Rs as well as all of the steps on
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716 (My iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes)
I've even messed with msconfig and tried a whole bunch of other suggestions. It doesn't seem that Apple has a fix for this problem and we are all left with paperweights.
Any suggestions?
Thanks you all and condolences to everyone who is going through this same problem. I swear what happened to plug and play. Pfft!!!

You know they are probably going to search me out and crash my computer for posting this but i had the same problem with iTunes. i spent hours, went through the 50000 "R's" and changed my settings and formatted and reset and reloaded and then i tried Realaudio. it found all the songs i had loaded into iTunes and put them on my shuffle first try. you can get Realaudio at <www.real.com> Let me know how it works...
