DVD Tv Series to iTunes TV Programme
I have managed to rip a TV series from DVD and have converted it to the right format to import into iTunes. But when i have imported it into iTunes it puts the files in the "Film" section rather than the "TV Program" section. This leaves me with 26 separate files on my iPod and if i add any more in it will become un-manageable.
So is there a way to convert the video files such that they can be imported into the TV Section of iTunes?
Maybe you have the answer to this then...., I know how to chage the "Media Kind" to TV show, but iTunes doesn't remember that I did that. It'l move the videos into the TV SHows section of my library just fine, but if I remove them and then add them again, they're right back to being classified as Movies. It's as though iTunes doesn't remember I changed them to TV show.
FYI, this problem persists in both itunes 9 AND 10 (including with latest update) and on multiple computers. It appears to be an issue within iTunes.

I purchased a TV series and Itunes indicated the programme was downloading onto my computer. Once that was done I tried to view the downloaded programme but the only viewing option was directly via internet. I have very poor and unstable internet reception (rural area) so I can only view programmes I can download. The programme does NOT appear on my 'downloads' in Itunes and I am unable to find any indicator as to how I can 're' download the programme. All suggestions are welcome.
Thank you.The external DVD/CD Writer will Not appear on your desktop when you attach it to your iMac. It will appear in "Finder", which is in your Dock.
Hope this helps -

I am having trouble viewing the third episode of a tv series that I have downloaded on Itunes. Any suggestions?
It won't work, they are linked to your account and can only be played via iTunes on a computer, an iOS device or Apple TV. You might be able to get a cable to link your Mac to your TV so that you can play/mirror it through your TV e.g. if it's a Macbook with an HDMI socket and your TV also has an HDMI socket then you could try an HDMI to HDMI cable (Apple do them, and electrical stores should also have them) - I've used one to play iTunes TV programmes on my TV (though I don't think that I got sound through my TV, only my Mac).

I have downloaded Peppa Pig series using Itunes and have tried to sync the tv programme to both my Ipad Mini and IPhone 5. However neither work saying that 'videos from Itunes Libary can not be copied to 'ipad' because they can not be played on this I Pad. I have downloaded the HD episodes is this my problem or do i need to download a 'video watching' app? Please help we are going away next week and the episodes were to help keep my toodler occupied on the plane. thank you
The error you received kinda looks like the one in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4223
But the iPhone 5 and the iPad mini should support HD videos.
What I would try is downloading the movies directly to your iPad mini or your iPhone. You will want to do this when connected to Wi-Fi, but you can follow these steps in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
I hope that helps! -
I am not a knowledgeable user - have what may be a stupid question! I just purchased a TV show series on iTunes and downloaded all episodes for the season. But I believe i want them on my iCloud instead of my laptop. How do I transfer them to the Cloud or duplicate on the iCloud?
You can't transfer any purchase to the cloud yourself, whether a TV programme/series will show in the cloud for redownloading in the future depends upon what country that you are in (TV programmes can't be redownloaded in all countries), whether you move countries (you can't redownload purchases made in another country) and if the rights-holder keeps them in the store (they occasionally remove their items).
As you bought it on your laptop then you could turn Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos (under 'show all') 'on' on your iPad and it might show in the Videos app on it with a cloud icon against it for streaming/redownloading (it might also show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes Store app for refownloading whether or not you turn that 'on') - but that depends upon your country and only whilst it remains in your country's store. Similarly if you delete it from your laptop and tick the 'show iTunes in the cloud purchases' tick box on the Store tab in Edit > Preferences it might show in the TV Shows part of your library for redownloading (and whether or not you tick that it might show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading).
But you should be taking a backup copy of it, and anything else that you download from the stores, there is no guarantee that you will be able to redownload any item. -
I get error message: not enough space to download when I try to buy a tv series on Itunes. It tells me to delete photos or videos to make space, but I have no photos and videos. Help?
I would guess that a TV series takes up a fair amount of storage capacity. It is just a standard message I think that may indicate that you are actually running low on storage space.
If you go to Settings>General>About how many GBs are specified as being available? If you are low on space maybe deleting some apps may help. -
I bought a tv series from iTunes ... But now that I'm 1/2 way i get a pop up telling me that I don't have permission to view it ... Huh ? So now what do I do ? All the previous episodes I have in iCloud ... I'm using an iPad 2 ... Anyone shed some light on this
It means what the message says. The format of the song can't be converted to a format compatible with the iPod.
Does it play in iTunes?
Where id the song come form?
Try deleting and reimporting into iTunes. -
How do I give access to one episode at a time from a tv series on iTunes?
On my son's Gateway, running XP, I have set up an account for him and an account for myself (with me as administrator). Here's what I want to do: download an entire TV series onto iTunes under my account, then transfer one episode at a time to iTunes under his account, giving him access only to the episodes that I have transferred to him. What's the best way to do this? (I want to buy the whole season as it is cheaper than one episode at a time). (OK, yes, I am bribing him to do his school work, but hey, it's healthier than McDonalds!
I thought I had to download the whole season at once (if the whole thing is available).
No, but any available episodes will automatically download unless you go into the Download queue and pause them. Just so it's clear, even if you buy a season pass, each episode is a separate video. So you can download them all to your Windows/iTunes account and just copy over to your son's account the ones you want him to have access to.
Do you know how long I can leave the purchased episodes on iTunes before downloading? Is there a time limit where the un-downloaded episodes will just go away?
I wouldn't suggest that you leave them for very long at all. There's too much risk of something corrupting your download queue should an episode, for some reason, be pulled (as can happen if an episode is found to have bad encoding, for instance). I'd suggest that you download them as soon after they appear as you can. -

Can I put my DVD movies on to Itunes to move to my Iphone?
like with cds
(not home movies)
compaq Windows XPwhy?
Ripping DVDs would entail breaking an encryption schema. That is forbidden under the DCMA and thusly, the Apple TOU. They make a specific point about DVD ripping.
Section 6.8.2:
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store. -

Not so spherical mercator? SRID 3857?
Hi folks, Spent some time yesterday getting schooled on all the politics of last year's EPSG 3785 to 3857 swap. I guess they just don't like that sphere (or rather the math). I was wondering first off if anyone had the 11gR2 CS inserts for 3857. I sa
