Automator to Copy Info - TV Shows

Is there a way to create an Automator script that will copy the TV Show name into the following fields:
- Artist
- Album Artist
- Sort Artist
- Sort Album Artist
- Sort Show
I would only want this to run on the TV Show folder. 
The reason for doing this is that I've found that this fixes the sorting of TV Shows over Home Sharing to my iPad - all of these fields need to be populated with the same name.
Let me know if you have thoughts.  Thanks!

No, all that is necessary is to move just the TV show files to the new disk. Make sure they are in a folder by themselves. They can probably found on your laptop at:
youruserfolder/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/TV Shows
Then, open iTunes. Remove the TV shows from iTunes (don't worry, we'll add them back later) by selecting them and pressing Delete. Then, press Command-O and navigate the TV shows on the external hard disk. Select the folder that has the TV shows in them. Press Choose.
You should have your TV shows back in iTunes, and the files will be stored on the external disk.

  • Digital Copy no longer showing in purchased movies

    Hello,
    Last September I redeemed the Digital Copy code that came with the bluray of Star Trek: Into Darkness.  The movie downloaded and was also available on all of my devices via iCloud.  It has been in my purchased movie section of iTunes until recently, when it just disappeared.  Other movies I have redeemed via Digital Copy are still showing up.  I have been in touch with iTunes Store support chat and they said that they do not support Digital Copy movies even after they have been redeemed (obviously that was very surprising to me since it is technically an iTunes purchase, but just prepaid).  Does anyone have any ideas how I can restore this Digital Copy movie to my account?
    Thanks.

    It's possible that the distributor isn't allowing redownloading for that film - from iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability :
    1Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud.
    You can view the purchase history on your account (which should show the film if was redeemed on that account, my digital redemptions show on mine) by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, on your account's screen there will be a 'Purchase History' section with a 'see all' link to its right - unfortunately it's not searchable.

  • MIRO- Unplanned Delivery Costs info. not showing on FS10N line items

    HI,
    Can anyone explain why when posting an Invoice with unplanned delivery costs using T-code MIRO, the purchase order info. does not show in the GL line item display T-code FS10N for any of the unplanned delivery cost line items. If anyone have a solution to allow the purchase order info. to show on the uplanned delivery costs line item that would be great.
    Thanks.
    Rickey.

    Un-planned freight is entered on the header of the invoice and therefore relates to the entire invoice. Since, its possible to have mulitple PO's on one invoice it would only be possible to assign the PO when there is exactly one PO on the invoice.
    Alternative, you can use planned freight or post the unplanned freight using the G/L tab in transaction MIRO. By using the G/L tab you can enter any information required for accounting (including multiple lines in case it is required to split the un-planned freight by several PO's.

  • Geo info not showing in places

    I'm unable to get the gps info to show up in iphoto's places on my macbook. It works fine on my imac..
    both computers have the most current iphoto (iphoto 09) and the same pictures (the gps info is there.. it shows latitude and longitude under extended info)
    so, why does gps info show up correctly only on the imac and not the macbook? (nothing shows in places and nothing shows when i click the i in the corner) Is there a preference setting I need to set on the macbook that I'm missing?
    thanks

    so I dont understand why nothing shows up in places
    Have you set iPhoto to look up Places automatically in the Preferences?
    when i click the i in the corner
    That panel contains no Places information.
    Regards

    how do i copy a dia show on cd?

    Okay, I'm not really able to help you as I've only really dabbled with iPhoto and am not an expert on it.  I suggest you re-post your question in the iPhoto community:

    It might be a good idea to re-phrase your question using expressions familiar to English speaking users, or ask your question in German.

  • ITunes won't let me copy a TV show to iPod Classic

    Hi,
    I can't copy a TV show to my iPod using either the sync or manual method. Some other TV shows work fine, but not the file I want to copy! When I try to drag the file from my TV show library onto the TV Shows folder on the iPod, the file just "snaps" back and won't actually copy.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    GLenn

    FIgured it out: the file was in HD format and the iPod Classic cannot play HD files. Downloading the SD version now...

  • Crashes while trying to copy info from "Movie info" window

    Hi,
    does anyone experienced this thing also? When i play streaming media and try to select and copy info from "Movie Info" QT crashes instantly (QT 7.1.3)
    Any idea
    PowerMac G5 2x2GHz, PowerMac G5 2,3GHz DC   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Also, see this ARTICLE from the Tips & Tricks sub-forum, for things to look at with crashes and hangs. It covers the hardware, the OS and the software, and offers links for tuning up the system, and getting it ready for video editing. I know that there is a lot of material in there, but Neale has done a great job of putting things into a checklist, and offering links to other material.
    That rec. is for use along with John T's links, which are a bit more specific to your burned DVD's.
    Good luck,

  • How do I copy a TV Show from I Tunes to stay permanently on Apple TV?

    Hello,
    I want my wife to be able to watch a TV Show on the Apple TV when my laptop is with me out of the house. Is this possible? If so, how do I copy a tv show over to Apple TV?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    Use the ATV sync settings in iTunes to set the shows you want to sync, then they will remain on the ATV hard disk until you remove them from your iTunes library. She will be able to watch the synced content even if your laptop is out of the house.

  • Copy does not show File 2 metadata in Nikon View NX

    A picture opened in Photoshop CS4 11.0.1 and saved as a copy jpeg (after color correction) when opened in Nikon View NX 1.5.2 does not show the
    metadata with shutter speed, lens aperture, etc. However, that same picture shows the original info in Photoshop (File info > camera data). I wrote Nikon and they claimed Photoshop and other third part apps "ruin the shooting data." Opinions? Suggestions? Thanks

    Well the problem is that, in Windows, the menu bar is owned by the application. When you view the PDF in the browser, the browser owns the menu bar and chooses what to show. Hence it shows only the browser items and not the Reader menus. If you view it outside the browser, Reader is running stand-alone and shows it's menu items.
    I think, all you can do is show make sure the button bars you want are exposed by default.

  • Info not showing anything (sometimes not even panel)

    Hi
    Hopefully someone can help when I click info on photos so I can tag people or see dates sometimes i get an etched grey panel - mostly not!
    If i go Photos>detect missing faces sometimes it crashes sometimes it comes up!? but then the font seems black on black!?
    I have tried rebuilding data bases etc - Do i need to reinstall? Is this possible?
    I have an iMac runnning 10.9.1  with a 2.5 GHZ intel Core i5 with 2GB Ram

    First try all of the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder:
    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
    If that fails to solve the problem it could be another preference file other than iPhoto. Here's how to test for that:
    Trouble Shooting Preferences
    1 - close all applications.
    2 - open your Home/Library folder and Option-drag (copy) the Preferences folder to the Desktop. 
    3 - select the contents of the orignal Home/Library/Preferences folder and drag them into the Trash bin in the Dock.  You will be asked to provide your Admin password.
    4 - reboot. Be sure to know your account's username and password as you will be asked to log in with it.
    5 - run the application again and determine if the problem(s) is fixed.
    6 - If the problem is fixed:
    A - open the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    B - Open the Preferences  folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace or Skip button.
    D - reboot.
    7 - If the problem is NOT fixed, drag the contents of the Preference folder on the Desktop into the Home/Library/Preference folder and replace the entire contents that were created by clicking on Replace.
    8 - reboot and you're back as square one.
    Note:  keep the Preference folder on the desktop until you're sure all registration info for your apps are working.  If not you can copy the required files from the desktop pref folder to the working one.

  • Can I copy a tv show to my iTunes using Home Sharing?

    My son bought some tv shows with my account. They are in his library. I'm am trying to copy them to my iTunes using Home Sharing. Why is Home Sharing saying I can't copy them because my computer isn't authorized (when it is authorized). This is frustrating. Thanks. . . Jim C

    hi jim,
    in order to play content bought with another iTunes account, the destination machine must be authorized to that account. so, you need to authorize your iTunes to play content purchased with your sons iTunes account.
    that's basically very easy. all you have to do is +log out+ of one account (click on the account name in the Store window and select sign out from the pop-up dialog) and into the other, and then they will both be authorized. (be sure to just *log out*, not de-authorize ).
    any help ?
