How to view TV-shows names??

I have several movies on my iPad. These appear on screen with an "icon" on black background and text that explains which movie this is.
My TV shows however appear without the text, just an icon on black background, which makes it necessary to click on the "icon" in order to see which TV show this is.
Is there any way to make the text appear also on the TVshows section?

I am also having the same issue and am in the process of trying to find an answer to this issue.
I never liked all my family videos (few dozen) showing up as individual movies so I would label all my family movies as TV Shows because it allows me to basically create folders. I would just label an entire year of videos Personal Videos 20xx (show name) and it would place them in a folder named for that year. While not ideal, this worked great with my iPod Touch, but this does not work with the iPad. It still keeps them in a folder but the lack of a title make it less useful.
I am very happy with the iPad and have very few issues complaints other than the video program. It is just such a limited program which I hop apple updates in the near future. I can't stand the fact that you can only view the image of your videos only, why isn't there some type of List view also?

  • How to view by show and not Seasons

    This is probably more an itunes questions but since apple tv users use itunes I thought I'd try here. Is there a way to organize the library so that when you are in TV shows you view just the shows. Say I have lost and theres 4 seasons of it. Can't I just view lost TV show, click it then I see my 4 seasons with the art work. Cause other wise I have all these shows but I have to scroll through so much just to get the right season. I hope this makes sense but if I have 10 shows and they all have 4 seasons I have 40 listings. Seems kinda crazy. I have tried to organize my library but can't seem to get this one figured out. Maybe there isn't a way and itunes wants it that way. Hope to hear form someone.

    I should have been clear though. Its not the view in itunes that bothers me, its in apple tv.
    Yes, that would have helped.
    Is there a way to say make a grid view with apple tv?
    No, not a "Grid" view, but you can achieve the same "List" results on an TV2 device by including/excluding the "Season" entry.
    So the only thing I can do is change the season. However, won't that make a mess cause if I have say 4 seasons. I would then have 4 episode 1's etc.
    No, not if you are really entering the "Episode Number" correctly. For instance, I am currently working on season 2 of Bones. Since there were 22 show episodes in season 1, they were numbered 1 thru 22. Season 2 contains 21 show episodes which are numbered 23 thru 43. (If you need a list of episode numbers for a particular series, you can visit a site like http://www.tv.com and search for the TV series by name and, once you find it, jump the the "Episode Guide" for that series.
    In any case, if you remove the season number from all of your "Lost" episode entries, then all of the shows will be displayed in a single continuous list which you can access via the single "Lost" TV Show Name entry. You can remove all of the season numbers in a single action by selecting all of the Lost episodes and entering a "nul" Season entry. If your Episodes Numbers are correct, then the Episode titles will be listed in the order in which they were aired on TV.
    To me it just seems kinda crazy that using apple tv you would have to view multiple seasons of multiple shows instead of just the show name, then choose your season, then episode.
    As previously noted, these devices only allow two organizational levels and your statement implies you want three separate tiers--Show Name, Season Number (by Show), and Episode Name (by Season). If you look at the display of your current TV Show list on an TV1 device, you would see only a single entry for each TV Show and when you select the TV Show Name, you would see a list of episodes divided by "Season Number" headers. In other words, removing the "Season Number" entry for an TV2 device will allow it to display in the same manner as the TV1 device but without the "Season Number" headers in the "Episode" list.
    I dunno, maybe i mis understood or am missing something.
    Basically, you have the option of displaying all episodes under a single TV Show Name or single Season Episodes under a TV Show + Season Name. How you choose to view them is up to you.

  • [SOLVED] How to view the *exact* name of the currently running kernel?

    Perhaps this question will seem dumb, but here goes : I have two kernels installed :
    [ruben@arch ~]$ yaourt -Q linux
    core/linux 3.2.9-1 (base)
    [ruben@arch ~]$ yaourt -Q linux-ck-kx
    repo-ck/linux-ck-kx 3.2.11-1 (ck-kx)
    Grub’s menu.lst is configured to boot linux-ck-kx :
    # general configuration:
    timeout 5
    default 2
    color light-blue/black light-cyan/blue
    # (0) Arch Linux
    title Arch Linux
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-label/archroot ro
    initrd /boot/kernel26.img
    # (1) Arch Linux Fallback
    title Arch Linux Fallback
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-label/archroot ro
    initrd /boot/kernel26-fallback.img
    # (2) Arch Linux CK-KX
    title Arch Linux CK-KX
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz-linux-ck root=/dev/disk/by-label/archroot ro
    initrd /boot/initramfs-linux-ck.img
    # (3) Arch Linux CK-KX Fallback
    title Arch Linux CK-KX Fallback
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz-linux-ck root=/dev/disk/by-label/archroot ro
    initrd /boot/initramfs-linux-ck-fallback.img
    And yet, I see no mention of *-ck-kx when issuing this comand :
    [ruben@arch ~]$ uname -a
    Linux arch 3.2.9-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Mar 1 09:31:13 CET 2012 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
    It does not matter whether I change the default kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst : I can set it to “ 0 ” or “ 2 ” and reboot, and the output of “ uname -a ” will always be exactly the same as above ; no mention of *ck-kx even though I know it is running.
    I searched the web on how to view the name of the running kernel, all results I found said to use uname, so is there another command I am missing here ? Or is it normal that both my kernels yield the same uname output ?
    Just curious, because I was playing around with kexec, and when doing “ fake ” reboots, I was alternating between the normal ARCH-kernel and the ck-kx*kernel, and I wanted to be sure that it actually worked, so I checked everytime with uname, and since I saw no difference in the outputs, I assumed kexec wasn’t working like it should, so I did a “ real ” reboot, but same uname outputs… So I must be missing something…
    Here are the kexec commands I used, just to be sure I am doing this properly :
    [ruben@arch ~]$ sudo kexec -l --append="`cat /proc/cmdline`" --initrd=/boot/initramfs-linux-ck.img /boot/vmlinuz-linux-ck
    [ruben@arch ~]$ sudo init 6
    and :
    [ruben@arch ~]$ sudo kexec -l --append="`cat /proc/cmdline`" --initrd=/boot/initramfs-linux.img /boot/vmlinuz-linux
    [ruben@arch ~]$ sudo init 6
    Thoughts ?

    One question for you litemotiv : do you have two kernels currently installed on your system, like I do, or did you uninstall the ARCH-kernel ? I ask because I might try this :
    $ sudo pacman -Rns linux
    and reboot, and see what happens…
    But before I do that, might as well try to debug it ;
    t1nk3r3r wrote:I would point the finger at GRUB, or something occuring near boot-time.
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Boot_Debugging
    So I tried the “ Heavy Debug ” option, rebooted, then issued “ dmesg > dmesg.txt ” ; here are the first few lines of that file :
    [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset
    [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpu
    [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.2.9-1-ARCH (tobias@T-POWA-LX) (gcc version 4.6.2 20120120 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Mar 1 09:31:13 CET 2012
    [ 0.000000] Command line: root=/dev/disk/by-label/archroot ro
    and the complete dmesg output is here. I am no expert at reading debuggin output, but from the above, it seems like the default ARCH-kernel is being booted, even though my menu.lst hasn’t changed from my previous post (exept for the debugging options) :
    # general configuration:
    timeout 5

  • How to view long file names and sort files within folders/projects?

    Hello, like so many people here, I am a new mac user, but certainly not computer illiterate. I have been a professional photographer for 10 years and recently change to mac and have been slowly trying to adapt my work flow accordingly.
    However I have become increasingly frustrated with Aperture 3 and after reading posts here it looks like I am certainly not the only person. While in my case I am sure it is because of my inexperience with mac systems so any guidance or assistance is much appreciated.
    Hopefully my questions are simple. I have been importing my images and re-naming images as I do so. A very simple combination of date, custom name, and counter. However, when I look at the images once the import has completed, they are not in any logical order within the 'project'. I have tried to sort them by file name, orientation, file size, etc, both ascending and descending, but they will not list in the correct order. eg the file '2010-03-09 Lyon France 001', continually falls between '2010-03-09 Lyon France 022' and '....021'.
    This has also lead me to a further question. While my file names can generally be read when the image is a landscape format, on the portrait images the file name it too long for me to read the whole name, and I can not find anyway to read the file name, eg browser, split screen, viewer, or full screen.
    Im sorry for all the details, and I am sure it is just my lack of experience, so appreciate your help.
    PS. On a separate note, I notice on another thread from the frustrated user 'ultratechy' that he got a reply from Tony who stated 'Also after installing any application you should always run disk utility and repair permissions....' Now as I am completely new to mac, I had no idea about this. Any other tips that I should always be aware of? Thanks again.

    Thanks for your reply Calx. If it makes you feel better, I am actually a New South Welshman - just living in the sunshine state!
    You are correct, I am trying to get my head around a new way of working and thinking, but I suppose it will all become clearer as time goes by. I have re-visited the manual many times, and been doing loads of research online, but just trying to put it all into practice now, so any tips or advice is always appreciated.
    At the moment, I am just working with a small part of my library until I do get my head around things before moving onto the bulk of my images. I have my images stored and backed up on multiple external hard drives. I am trying to import my images into aperture from an external drive as I have been slack over the years with keywording, metadata, organising, etc etc, so I figure from what I have read that aperture may assist me with making these time consuming tasks a bit quicker and easier.
    I have put a bit of thought into my filing structure, but I am sure that with further use and understanding, this may change in the future, but I hope not. To give you an example of how I am thinking and working - I have used folders for my regular clients, eg, Ray White, and then made another level of folders within 'Ray White' for the date, and then in each 'date folder' I place my projects and name them with the address of the property I have photographed. I select and edit images from each project and place them in albums under each project. Not sure if this is the most perfect structure, but any advice is welcome.
    Keywords is always an issue with me. Over the years I have compiled a number of list for each client and each 'type' of photography. For example, real estate images have there own list, I just simply manually add keywords for specific jobs, eg the address and any specific location or features.
    Again, advice and guidance always welcome and I would appreciate how you go about these topics? And maybe you can help explain something that I have pre-emted may be a problem, and it may happen when I move onto my larger library, and I am not sure how to explain this as it may show my lack of management previously. When I worked on my PC, I used PS4, Adobe Bridge and Camera RAW pretty much exclusively. For my landscape images for example, I might have 2 or 3 variations of the one images, eg, black and white, sepia, and color for instance. But the file name remained the same, I just stored them in different folders indicating what version of the image was stored there. Now I am thinking that when I import images in Aperture, I will come across difficulties because Aperture will think the I am importing duplicate images because I will in fact have 3 images with the same file name, even though the adjustments I have made to them are different. Is this the case? Will I have to make adjustments again? Will I have to change the name of the files prior to importing? If so, any advice or tips?
    Well, I should stop there. Im sorry to bombard you with some much text, but as mentioned, I am new, and finding my feet, so thanks for your time.

  • Ipod Nano-How Do I just show names of Albums

    Help please, i have an ipod nano, and i want to be able to display names of the Albums on my itunes library only.

  • 2012 R2 RDS Shadowing from Server Manager - how to view client computer names

    Hello,
    I have a 2012R2 RDS session based deployment. We have a few generic user accounts for a production environment where a group of users uses the same username to start multiple RDS sessions. This creates a bit of a challenge when support has to shadow one
    of those sessions because they all appear with the same name: domain\username. The Connections pane in RDS (Server manager) does not list client computer name, which would be the distinguishing factor. The old version of the RDS console (remote
    desktop manager) had this information. Citrix appears to have it as well. Is there a way around this limitation in 2012R2 Server Manager?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    As far as I know, there are two ways.
    1. Use the Task Manager. In the Users Tab, you can see the client name.

    2. Use the Terminal Services PowerShell Module. With the Get-TSSession in PowerShell, we can get the detailed information.

  • How to avoid using subfolders in libraries and use views to show all data

    Hi all
    I am very new to Sharepoint design so hopefully I can explain what I need properly.
    I have a sharepoint site which I upload a lot of data to. Most of the data I can categorise into subfolders (Location and Year). Instead of having the same subfolders in each library I wanted the user to select the Location and Year they want from a dropdown
    and then refresh a List webpart based on their requirements.
    Is this easy to do?
    Would I have to create new columns called Location and Year in order to do this?

    Let me give more details..We have 3 iPods and 2 iPhone4....I recently purchased the iPhone4 and when we connected it..It was already reading my wife's iPhone4..We went to the Apple Store at the Grove today and was told to de-authorize the system and connect my iPhone4 back and I should be able to change the name.
    Nothing happened..Right now, I clicked on RESTORE settings...and it is uploading a new iPhone update.

    Unfortunately, that's the way the cookie crumbles nowadays. Sir Jony Ive's GUI design for iOS7 has been met with much skepticism (to say the least). But until the company sees the compelling need for an adjustment or reversal, it "ain't happenin' ". So amble over to the feedback page ( http://www.apple.com/feedback/ ) and make your displeasure known to the company, OR make it known by not purchasing its products. Because as long as the iGadgets continue selling as fast as they can make them, they will see no need for change.
    BTW, do note you are NOT talking to Apple here. This is just a user-to-user forum.
    Edit: for now, you can also try out any of the alternate calendaring apps available in the App Store.

    Naming the Photo - or giving it a title - is not the same as naming  file.
    How are you burning to dvd? With iPhoto? If so then the Title will be available in any app that understands basic metadata.
    If you want the title available in the Finder - which does not understand photo metadata  - then you'll need to export the file
    File -> Export
    In the resulting dialogue you'll see a heading for 'File Name'. Choose 'Use Title' from the drop down.
