How do I play all my Movies from the iTunes'  Library?

How do I play all the Movies from within my LIBRARY without having to click PLAY everytime on each individual movie? All my movies in the Library have the check marks on them already.
When I play my "Music" LIBRARY, as soon as a song is over the next one starts up. Fine. Great! But, the same is not happening from within my "Movies" LIBRARY.
This play-all-Movies type of action works fine from within each of my playlists. Once selected a movie to play from any playlist, other movies will keep on playing, one after another, until told to stop. But, I also would like to play all movies from my library.
It would seem redundant to copy my entire library into a single playlist just to have this function available. Besides, every time I would add a new movie to the library, I would also have to remember to add it to said playlist.
Could anyone, please, tell me if it is possible to play all movies from within the LIBRARY? (iTunes v.8.01).

Thanks for your prompt reply, Meg. I've applied exactly your "smart playlist" directions (always wondered what that "smart playlist" was for while it worked wonders! Great going.
"I asked for a fish and you taught me how to fish"! Thanks again!

  • Apple TV (Gen 2&3) takes several hours to load a movie from the iTunes Library

    I know this had been discussed before, but a went through all posts that I could find and never found a solution.  I will list below everything I have tried and if anyone else has ANY ideas I would be extremely greatful to hear them!  To reiterate the issue any time I try to play a movie from MY iTunes library it takes several hours before it will even start playing.  Now, to what I have already tried...
    1.  I cycled my router first and after that didn't work I completely took it back to default settings.  My router is an Apple Airport Extreme
    2.  I completely uninstalled iTunes and then reinstalled it with full library, and then I also tried with just one movie in my library that I know used to work.  My home computer is a Windows 7 PC.
    3.  I restarted my Apple TV, and also bought a Gen. 3 Apple TV and tried it new out of the box.
    4.  I have tried to stream on both WiFi and hooked up to an Ethernet Cable.
    5.  I have tried with all firewalls turned off on the PC and router.
    6.  I have ended home sharing on all devices and restarted home sharing on just the Apple TV and PC.
    7.  I have turned off all devices using WiFi in the home.
    That is all I can think of off hand so if you have any other ideas please do not hesitate to chime in so I can try something else. Do know that my Apple TV used to not have any issues and worked great since I irst purchased the Gen. 1 Apple TV. 
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

    I have the same problem.  I just purchased the Apple TV software 5.0.  Apple TV is working other than downloading movies.  I have been trying to download one movie for the past two days.  I have a wireless network, using AT&T DSL.  I have tested the connection using the test option in the Settings area of the Apple TV, which passes. 
    I have also tried rebooting my Apple Tv and turned off all other wireless options.  I am able to download Netflix movies using the PS3 without a problem, why not on my Apple TV.  I hope I didn't just purchase this device to stream music and photos. 
    I hope someone has a solution to this problem. 
    By the way I just upgraded my modem and router (Airport Extreme). 
    Thanks for the help!!!!

  • How do I take all my movies from the cloud and put them on an external hard drive

    I am using an Apple TV and have bought about 145 movies.
    The internet in my area is not very fast so I need to know how to put all of my movies on an external hard drive so i don't have to stream them through the internet.
    All I would have to do is put the external hard drive on my shared devices.

    Greetings austinfromdellslow,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you would like to store your purchases movies on an external hard drive. To do this, first you will need to download your purchased content from the cloud to the iTunes library on your computer. 
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    Once your media folder is complete with the downloaded content, you can move that iTunes media folder to your external hard drive using the information in the attached article below.

  • How do I move rented movies from the itunes library to my 1st generation Apple TV?

    Any help with this would be much appreciated. If you read the Apple help functions it all seems so simple; it just tells you to select the movie & press the move button. There is no move button on itunes!! Alternatively you are asked to select Apple TV in devices - fine - and then select the movies tab. What movies tab? Nothing at all shows up when you select the Apple TV device apart from the serial number & the IP address.
    The instructions are just impossible to follow as the functions described just do not exist in itunes 10. I am just so frustrated & the only solution appears to be to rent the movie again from the Apple TV. So I have to pay twice to just watch the movie once? I HATE Apple's attitude to owners of the 1st Generation TV. They are basically just saying stuff it, we really don't care!!

    Use File -> Add to Library and navigate to the
    files you wish to select. You can also select a
    contiguous block by holding down the shift key as you
    click from first to last item in a list. Then press
    the "select" button. You aiff files should be added
    to the iTunes library
    Moriond,
    It worked! and on my first try. And all at one time. Thanks a million. I still have to delete all the AIFF files and name the songs and artists in my iTunes library, but I'll do that tomorrow. For now, I'll just close out my day with this great achievement, thanks to you.

  • I deleted all my music from the iTunes library how can I recover it?..

    I have moved all my music to a external memory and after that I deleted by mistake ,,is there any program to recover files for free?

    Have you emptied trash? You may be able to recover your music from there. Otherwise you won't be able to recover deleted music except for past iTunes purchases.

    If you are sure you are signed in with the same Apple ID you purchased those additional songs with and are following the steps in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519, you should contact iTunes Store support about the missing content:  http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • Where are icloud movies in the iTunes library?

    I am currently running iTunes 11.0.1. Once I updated to iTunes 11.0.1. I was able to see all the movies, from the iTunes library, on my harddrive as well as in icloud, with the iCloud symbol shadowed. Now when I open my iTunes library, the only the movies that I see are the movies on my harddrive. The only way that I see them are in the purchased section of iTunes store. I feel like this is something simple that I am missing, can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Hi A Hanwell, thanks for that. That didn't work. When I click on View Options while in the movie , the only thing see is is the sort feature. To help elaborate, the iCloud icon on the top right side of the iTunes doesn't show anymore whether it is in the music, movie etc...

    Hi brett242424,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The movie would be in your iTunes library, in the Movies application.  However, if the rental period has expired, you may need to contact the iTunes Store Support about your situation:

  • HT202157 Does anyone else have a problem with the latest Apple TV update?  My Apple TV no longer can load movies from my iTunes library, including ones I've already watched or were watching.  Can I roll back this update, and if so, how?

    After updating my Apple TV, it will no longer load movies from my iTunes library.  Music works, but no movies.  I've turned this puppy every which way but loose, but no joy.  Is there a way to roll back an update?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,

  • Hello..Does anyone in this community know what the following error code indicates   0x8002006E   I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.

    I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.    Thanks for any help you can offer,

    Thanks for your reply:
    I did find an error log related to the error code and tried all suggestions on the list of recommendations, still no luck            
    I definitely am running OS X10.5.8 (hopefully will be updating later on this month)
    I tried several brand new discs from the same box, still no luck.
    My last option is to go out and try a different brand, guess I'll go with Verbatim this time but I think I'll poke around some more before buying 20 more new discs.

  • How do I move movies from one iTunes library to another?

    I am consolidating two copies of my iTunes library. One copy has movies that the other does not. I am decommissioning the old library. How do I move the movies from the old library to the new library?

    Locate the movie files, open the new library, and drag them into the open iTunes application window.
