Front Row Sharing - Some TV shows not showing up

Hi all,
I have a problem with iTunes' shared libary - it only shows a subset of TV shows within iTunes. I have a Mac Pro in my den, which hosts a pretty large itunes library (about 750GB), of which 350GB are TV shows I've either bought from iTunes or ripped from DVD. The machine is running 10.6 and iTunes is fully up to date. Everything works as you'd expect on the Mac Pro, and Front row can see all the videos iTunes can see.
In our bedroom we have a fairly recent Mac Mini. If i use iTunes ->iTunes sharing, all the titles show up correctly and I an watch any TV show.
However, if we use the sharing feature in front row on the mac mini, only a subset of TV shows appears - and infuriatingly it's not even 100% reliable which items will fail to show - but it is about 90% reliable, which is even more frustrating, as it's clearly not totally random. The shows most likely to be effected seem to be the ones added in the last few months.
I've also tried running front row on different clients on the same LAN - both my wife and my Macbook pros do the same, as does an iMac in our kitchen, so it seems to me to be either a problem which effects Front Row generally, or a fault on the iTunes server Mac Pro. Is my library simply too big for the Front Row sharing feature to work correctly? If so - this is ridiculous!?
I've looked into alternative clients for the Mac Mini, like Mediacentral, which doesn't seem to support sharing of iTunes videos, and also Plex which again doesn't appear to support this, but is frankly so complex it's hard to tell - if it will support seamless iTunes sharing of all content, I'd be happy to give it a go - but it doesn't look like it does.
Preferably there would just be a fix like deleteing some iTunes cache files or something on the Mac Pro - I've had a sniff about the iTunes XML file, and compared the data of some of theTV shows which turn up to some of those that don't and they all look identical, schema wise, so I'm none the wiser.
All machines tested are totally up to date, OS/iTUnes wise..
I haven't managed to find anything on the internet about this, which leads me to think it's probably an obscure issue with my iTUnes installation, rather than a problem with library size, since I'm sure many other people have bigger libraries than this....
Any help greatly appreciated!

I have the same issue. My home shared library can all be seen on my iPhone or my Apple TV 3rd Gen but not on my ipad. Only some movies and tv shows show up. Also. Many of the TV shows are all mixed up. Episodes shows up in different series and all mix up. All those issues only on the iPad, on other devices, all seems fine.

Front row (with itunes 10) does not show moves from shared library

I have two computers. My office computer contains all of my iTunes content, running iTunes 10. I have a mac mini connected to my television, and my intent is to use Front Row to access the shared library from the office computer. The problem is, when using front Row only a small number of my TV shows and none of my movies appear. I have checked the sharing settings on the source computer.

Exact same problem here.
It has been working fine doing this for years, then around a month ago after no changes to either machine that I know of, about half the content vanished when viewing a shared library.
I seem to have also worsened the issue by trashing and rebuilding the iTunes library from scratch. Since at least before doing this I had some of my Movies and TV shows show, but not all, now I seem to have a tiny amount of movies and none of the TV shows listed.
Checking on the source computer in front row shows all of them present as expected. Completely baffled by this. None of them are showing under odd sections (Say in Music rather than TV Shows) either so I know the meta-data isn't at fault.

Front row plays music but will not show photos

When i try to view my photos in Front Row all that happens is music plays but no photos are shown. Front row says that there are 186 photos to show, however, there is nothing to view once I start the show.
Any help with this?

As you connect your ipod to iTunes, an option in the upper right of the screen will appear. When you click this, it will show the different menu for your ipod.

I have activated home sharing but it's not showing up in my iOS devices

I have iTunes 10.4.1 and iOS 4.3.5 on my ipod touch and I have activated home sharing but it's not showing up in my iOS devices. I don't know what i'm doing wrong.
My firewall is allowing iTunes. I even disabled it and see if that would work, and it didnt.

I've heard on older versions that you need to disable home sharing, then turn it back on but there's a trick, DO NOT HIT THE DONE BUTTON! when you click DONE it actually closes sharing. after you enter your username and password and hit enter, just go and click on your music folder on the left.
This seems to be the fix for many.
Word of caution - don't upgrade to iTunes 10.5 - it's breaks home sharing.

Some videos are not showing in Apple TV playlist after upgrade to 6.0. Can play on Macbook itunes and using airplay to Apple TV. Anybody else have this issue?

Some videos are not showing in my Apple TV playlists after upgrade to 6.0. They were there prior to upgrade and I can play on Macbook itunes and also using using airplay to Apple TV. Anybody else have this issue?

Ok, so I'll try again. Thank you for the idea of looking in Home Videos, which is where all my "lost" videos are listed.
Is there a way to get them to display under their appropriate genre in the Movie section, which is where they all were listed prior to the os6 update? It does me no good to have hundreds of movies categorized in iTunes via a genre only to have them appear in Home Videos on ATV. These are not "home movies." They are legit mp4 movies that worked great under v5.

Some Open programs not showing indicator light in dock in 10.8

After upgrade to OSX 10.8 some applications are not showing the indicator light in dock when they are open, even with the check box checked in dock preferences. Also, the only App available in command+tab is Finder. I think these are related.

I've seen this around various forums. It seems to be a bug although I haven't gone looking/asking to see if someone at Apple has noted it.
There are two fixes. Restart or open terminal and run:
killall -KILL Dock
This will restart just the dock and that should fix the dock and the cmd+tab (which is part of the same process).

Thumbnails on some websites will not show up

I have Firefox 22 & WinXP Pro. Some websites will not show a thumbnail picture on my home page. I have read all the articles on thumbnails & none of them help. I have cleared the cache, loaded the page by left clicking the blank thumbnail & letting it load. They are NOT https sites & I do not use private browsing. The sites WILL show pictures on my homepage in Google Chrome, so it's not the website. I will try to attach a screenshot, but I do not see a browse button. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Phil

Hi Cor-el:
Thanks for responding. I went to Tools/Page Info, but couldn't find a "general" category. The website http://www.bridgeclues.com/ does show up in Chrome & used to show up in Firefox. How can I tell if there's a no-store or no-cache header?

Front Row Shared Photos unusably slow!

I have about 36,000 photos in iPhoto. When I share the library, and open it under Front Row, Shared Photos, it is just unusably slow! I have to wait about 5 minutes for the list to come up, even if I opened Front Row on the same machine as the iPhoto library. While this is happening, iPhoto is beach balled, and never becomes usable again, so I have to Force Quit it every time.
Any suggestions? I've already tried trashing the preferences file.

Follow iPhoto 6 and later: Rebuilding the iPhoto library and use the bottom 3 repair options.
It might also be helpful to remove Home > Library > Caches to the trash and restarting the computer.

Shared Office 365 calendars not showing up in iCal

We are using Microsoft's Office 365 and have users with a variety of devices and applications (Mac/iCal/Mail, Windows/Outlook, iPhone, Android, etc.).
I am the administrator of the Exchange accounts. I have created four calendars that are viewable by everyone within our organization (just general "company-wide calendars").
Users with Outlook are able to view those shared calendars just fine. However, I'm not able to add the shared calendars with users using iCal.
If I add them as a delegate, they can see all my calendars, but if I just share the calendar, they get a "no access" error.
Here's where I'm setting the shared calendar permissions. I've tried setting them as Reviewer, setting the Default as Reviewer, and setting them as Owner.
Because it works fine in Outlook, I'm wondering if it's an iCal problem. For cross-referencing purposes, here's my issue at Office 365's community: Shared calendars not showing up in Apple iCal

Hi All, after much trial and tribulation, this works for me on BusyCal. It is an app you can get on the apple store.
Calendar should be created then shared with the busycal user. The link does not work, but add exchange account as you would on Mac Calendar under preference>accounts. The go to the sharing tab and click plus and type in email of person who shared calendar. It will auto populate. For some reason it does not work under delegation in Mac Calendar
The key and where I spent 4 days on the phone with apple and office 365, is that the owner of the calendar has to share their calendar, named :"calendar" They can just click the permission "show availability only." Once they do that, any other calendars they have created and added you as full permissions or details, you can see. I see nothing on their calendar called "calendar" Not the perfect solution, but it works. BusyCal is $30
If this does not make sense feel free to message me or I will respond here.

Why some photos do not show up in the widgets after final export?

Why do I have a problem with the FeatureD News Widget not showing all my photos? I have tried redoing it many times over in different formats and all but one photo never shows up in the final export. Please I need help to finish up the website.

If I understand this correctly, you are reporting that you have images in your Featured News' target frames and some of those photos do not show up in the published site.
If so, I would like you to confirm if the widget works fine in Preview within Muse? Are the images missing in all browsers, even after clearing the browser cache? Can you provide a link to a published site? If required I may also request your source Muse file to investigate further.
Thanks,
Vikas

Some thumbnails do not show up in organizer

I have created a catalog with all my photos. There is a folder listing at the left of the screen. Some of the files in those folders do not appear in the thumbnails. They are all jpg files. If i try to import the files that are missing I am told they are already in the catalog. Still cant see them. I am also having trouble navigating the forums. New to this.

Some folder contents not showing in Bridge CS3

Some folders will not display in any way in Bridge. It does not seem to matter whether they are Jpeg or RAW files. Other folders on the same internal drive show fine. Tried several options with no luck.

I should have researched a bit more. Did the holding Ctrl while opening Bridge and purged everything. Took care of it.
Thanks though

Some SQL fields not showing data in Crystal XI R2

I have a report that is using a stored procedure. In this stored procedure we have many fields that are being passed over to Crystal. A small portion of these fields do not show any data when you browse them in Crystal. But when you check on the SQL Server 2005 side, they contain data. So we know that the issue is probably on the Crystal side because there is data on the SQL side.
I originally thought that the problem may be caused by Null values in the database, but I used Crystal to convert the Null's to numeric zero if it was a number, and still there was no data showing up.
Also in the stored procedure, we are passing 2 parameters a start and end date. But that seems irrelevent to why some of the fields are not containing data like they should.
Why would some fields show no values at all, and some fields shows values?
Any ideas on how to correct this situation so data will show up for all the fields like they are suppose too?
Thanks everyone for their help!

Hi Levi,
Pleaase check the following :
1. Other than storedprocedure are you adding any tables to your report ? If so, check the links between your stored procedure.(Through Database Expert)
2.Write the following formula to find out whether the database fields contains values or not.
if isnull() or = " " Then
"This Field is Empty"
Else
Drag and dwop this formula in your report to get the field values.
Thanks,
Sastry
