IPad shared library view all wrong..help

I have added several TV shows to my itunes library. Each show has the correct metadata (artwork, season, date, episode 3, etc).
Don't worry this is all done legally via my "The Tube" software & digital TV tuner.
Question & issue
When I access my shared library (videos-->shared-->TV shows)
The list is not at all organised like it is on the Apple TV 2.
I understand they are two different products.
The only way I can locate a show is via the artwork? No names unless I click the artwork.
Some TV show are listed mutiple times.
Some TV shows are not listed at all?
Is there not a way to search for a TV show that is in my iTunes library via my ipad and view it on my ipad?
This is very frustraging as some appear (mutiple times) and some don't.
Everything have been properly encoded to play on all devices.

no one?
Maybe I'm explaining it all wrong....
Below are some photos I took with my camera .
The first photo is of my home movies season 2008
This is of my shared library.
fyi.... This is all legally obtained media via my cable provider & a neat app/hardware called tubestick
I would really appreciate some help if anyone has any ideas....
All videos have been properly encoded to play on my apple devices (iPad 1 & apple TV 2)

  • ITunes Shared library with all users on one computer

    I am trying to share my iTunes (version 8.2) library with all the users on my computer. So far, this is what I have done:
    1) I have moved the music folder into the shared folder.
    2) I have selected "Add to Library" in all three accounts.
    3) I have tried checking and unchecking the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library."
    Since then, I have added some CDs that had some songs that I already had. When I loaded these CDs, I deleted the duplicates that had the worse sound. Since then, everything is unwinding. The additions on one user account are not being added to the others. When I delete a track, iTunes (obviously) says that it can't find the song anymore. What's odd is that I then delete the one that is missing, and both are missing now: the one that I deleted on the original account and the one that I did not delete on the original account.
    I am starting to think that I need to start from scratch. So, to make a long story short (too late), how can I share my iTunes library with all users on one computer, where I can make a change in one account that will update automatically on the other accounts. If it can't be updated automatically, how can I add/delete files without causing the headaches I am currently having?
    Brian

    I actually followed this, but I still had problems that I listed above. Is there any way that when you make changes to one account (even if there is only one main account where changes are made), the changes are automatically (or at least easily) applied to the other user accounts?

  • IBooks on the iPad in library view have a black background

    I know the auto-night theme, but it's not that setting, its the library background, whe I try to open an ePub book, the iBook failed and the library background become black,other pages is ok.

    I posted about this issue a couple weeks back. There have been no responses to my post, but I can tell you what I discovered on my own.
    This happens automatically when your iPad's light sensor notices you're in a dim/dark room. There appears to be no way to disable it. It's supposed to be easier on the eyes, though if you're anything like me it's intensely painful to look at for more than a few moments. If you'd like to provide feedback requesting a way to turn it off, you can post here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ibooks_ios.html
    Hope this info helps a bit.

  • HT1535 I want to sync my pc itunes to my ipad music library. All I can do is from PC to ipad and I will lose my entire library. I have even bought Itunes Match but it will only allow my PC ITunes to match, not the other way....really frustrating as I am o

    I want to sync my music library of my Ipad to my Iphone.I am travelling overseas and do not have access to my synced Mac. My iphone had to be reset and I lost my library with I rest to use a new sim card. I have a PC with me which has Itunes but it does not allow me to take the library from the Ipad, it just wants to delete the Ipad library. Is there anything I can do? I have even paid for Imatch but it only wants to copy what is on the the PC which has only 2 tunes!!!!! Any suggestions? Thanks

    No.
    Use your backup copy of  your computer to put everything back.

  • Now in iBooks on the iPad in library view have a transparent background can I reset it to solid colours

    When are we going to have some input into how iBooks behaves. I want/need to edit metadata just the same as I can with songs but it hasn't been implemented in iBooks YET.
    Looking forward to Sir Jony delivering a fix to this lamentable omission.
    PS I'm a "Limey" and not biased against Aluminium People.
    iansai

    You can turn off transparency via Settings > General > Accessibility > Increase Contrast > Reduce Transparency 'on' - that will affect all apps, not just iBooks.
    For editing metadata you can leave feedback for Apple (these are user-to-user forums) via this page : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ibooks_ios.html

  • I added a second iPad to my iTunes account wrong: help!

    When I connected the new ipad2 at the Point where iTunes asks " add As New iPad or Restore from other named one" I chose restore, thinking that I would then have the same apps onto the new one without messing about. But now the new one has the same name as the old one and I am worried what will happen when I try to sync the old one again.
    I think I need to reset the new one and start again....how do I do that and is there any risk to the photos etc on the old one....
    Any advice gratefully received!

    You can change the name of the new iPad to something else by connecting it to iTunes and selecting the name. When the name highlights you can change it.

  • IPad No Sound at All! Help!!!

Only sound it makes is when I go to my settings and go to notifications and it makes a sound when trying to adjust the apart volume. Nothing works what so ever.  I restarted it, rebooted it. Nothing works, please help.

  • Retaining View Options in Shared Library

    FYI: i'm running Mac OS 10.7.3 & iTunes 10.5.3
    i have my library on a Mac Mini in the house. i use my MacBookPro for everything. My library is too large to keep on my laptop, so when i'm home, i just pop open iTunes and select the Mac Mini's library in the SHARED section to listen to tunes.
    essentially two issues...
    1) i hated that every time i created a new playlist, i had to re-select the View Options as i wanted them to be. this was just solved by using the Assimilate View Options script that i found during my investigations. it works fine for whatever i have on my local library (which isn't much), but it does not work for anything in the shared library.
    1b) sidenote issue with that: when using it on the local library, it does great with choosing all the columns that i have setup. it does not, however, deal with the column widths & order nor which view mode i want (Album List + Always Show Artwork). argh.
    2) so i continued my journey to finding the right app/plug/help/hack/whatever and ran across the Change Hidden iTunes Preferences script/app. this too works great for creating new playlists with the view options i want already in place (by checking the Changing view settings is global option). but this also only works on my local library and not the shared library views.
    2b) sidenote with this one: this has the same issue as 1b above - exactly. arghx2.
    NOTE: i realize i cannot actually change the view options on my shared libraries iTunes on the Mini - i just want the iTunes on my MBP to retain either the view options i want/set when using the shared library -or- have the view options that i actually have on the Mini's iTunes Library to display when viewing thru my MBP.
    does that all make sense?
    any thoughts would be appreciated.
    THANKS.

    This is by design. The artwork is not sent when browsing the shared library to avoid swamping the network. Sending the artwork for every track would generate a lot of network traffic.

  • One Library for all users on the system - Sharing?

    Hello.
    I'm using iTunes 9.0.3 on OS X 10.6.2. On this system, there are TWO users, one for my wife, one for me. I'd like to "merge" the seperate iTunes libraries, so that there's only one shared library for all users.
    How could this be achieved?
    Searching the web, I found a writeup on [dougscripts.com by Paul Whitey|http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/sharedlib.php], which basically explains to move ~/Music/iTunes to /Users/Shared/iTunes and making sure that there's an alias in ~/Music pointing to /Users/Shared/iTunes. It also explains, that the ownership of the files & folders is to be changed so, that all users have read & write access. This then looks like this on my system:
    !http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/6223/fileinfowithbothusersha.png!
    -> http://yfrog.com/5yfileinfowithbothusershap
    It works good - both "alex" and "sandra" can work with these files (ie. move them, rename them, change ID3 tags).
    But see those:
    !http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/2183/fileinfowithonlyalexhav.png! !http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/7807/fileinfowithonlysandra4.png!
    --> http://yfrog.com/jufileinfowithonlyalexhavp & http://yfrog.com/j2fileinfowithonlysandra4p
    That's from files which sandra or alex have added later on. Only the one who added these files can modify them (which is of course correct, if you have a look at the file permissions).
    How would you go about having only ONE iTunes database on the system? Simply putting the iTunes Db on a shared folder doesn't work well, as can be seen above. Always having to fiddle around with the file permissions isn't exactly comfortable…
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Alex

    Hm. PowerTunes crashs, when I make it Share my library. I pasted the crash report at http://pbox.ca/13gwy
    Since I cannot know how/if would work (because of the crash…), please correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't it also just move the files to /Users/Shared and set permissions correctly? Wouldn't I need to keep on running PowerTunes from time to time, or is it "run once and forget" application (if it works)?

  • Building 64bit shared library on Solaris 10

    I'm trying to port a Java application that depends on BerkeleyDB from GNU/Linux to Solaris 10. The GNU/Linux version was just recently rebuilt against Sun Java 6. The 64bit version of the JVM for the AMD Opteron processor. It produced a 64bit shared library. All is well in GNU/Linux land.
    I try building BerkeleyDB on Solaris following the instructions in the documentation and it produces a 32bit shared library. So when the application starts up and tells the JVM to run in 64bit server mode it complains it cannot load a 32bit shared library. So my question is how do I force the build system to build a 64bit shared library in Solaris 10?
    I'm using the Sun Studio 11 compiler for building BDB. I'm also doing this on a T1000 so any T1000 specific flags would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    I am not familiar with your particular environment. The general method for building a 64 bit Berkeley DB library on Solaris is to pass the "-xarch=v9a" flag to the configure command.
    I hope this helps.

  • ITunes Shared Library Password

    Sometime ago, I created a 'Shared Library' of all my music and password protected it.
    I have lost / forgotten the password. Now I cant access the shared library. Is there a way to recover/change the password to the shared library or delete the existing library and set up a new shared library?
    FYI:
    The shared library was set up on iTunes 9 via a Windows XP machine.
    The shared library shows on the 'Shared' list, but can't access due to password issue.
    Hope someone can help.

    If you are using home sharing within iTunes then you should be using your iTunes account and password to enable the sharing. I've used it to copy iTunes purchases and my copied CDs between computers.
    Setting up home sharing : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4620

  • I purchased movies through iTunes and downloaded them to my PC as well as synced my entire library (including 'all films') to my iPad. However, I cannot seem to find / view the movies on my iPad unless 'Home Sharing' is on?

    I purchased movies through iTunes and downloaded them to my PC as well as synced my entire library (including 'all films') to my iPad. However, I cannot seem to find / view the movies on my iPad unless 'Home Sharing' is on?

    No. Homeshare let's you view your iTunes library or others on your network.
    Movies should be in the video app on the home screen. If they are not there, then make sure when your iPad is plugged into iTunes on your computer...the video tab is checked to sync what you want..make sure you hit apply after. You should see the movies transferring to your iPad in the status bar on the top of iTunes.

  • I can see home sharing on my iPhone and iPad both running iOS 5 but when it loads the library is empty. Help!!

    The iPad is new today so pleeeease help! I have the latest version of iTunes and both iPhone and iPad are up to date. I have never had a problem with home sharing before 10.5 iTunes. Both mobile devices can eventually see the shared library but load it as though it is empty. This applies to movies as well. I have turned off home sharing on the mac and restarted it. I have also made sure that the username and password on both mobile devices are correct. Help!
    Mac mini ppc running 10.5.8
    iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0
    iPad 2 running iOS 5.0

    This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting.  Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)
    Change DNS Servers
    Settings -> Wi-Fi
    Click the blue arrow on your connected network
    Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Try again
    If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
    On your Mac
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
    Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
    Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
    You can use OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    or
    You can Google Public DNS if you want
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    I have actually repointed my routers DNS so all my devices now point to OpenDNS servers
