IPod Touch not reading TV Show correctly

I have the first 4 seasons of The Office and the first 6 of Family Guy, but i did not purchase them off of iTunes. I got them in fiine, but when put on my iPod Touch 2G 8GB, it does not tell me the season when i hit video. It says the show name, and then in parentheses the amount of episodes. I was wondering if there's a way to make it shpw up to say which season it is b/c when i open it up, underneath the episode name, it then says season _, episode_.

What is shown depends on what values are put in the Show, *Season Number* and *Episode Number* boxes in the "Get Info" dialog's Video tab. *Episode ID* may(?) affect sorting and is usually on the lines of "s01e02" to indicate Series 1, Episode 2. When you purchase a file some of these fields may not be filled in. Giving different seasons of a show different Show field entries would let iTunes treat the seasons as separate shows if that was what you actually wanted.

  • IPod touch not opening or showing up in iTunes (yet another one)

    I've tried the suggestions that I've read- turn off/then on, copy iTunes helper to applications folder, I've even trashed then reinstalled iTunes but nothing is happening. I thought maybe if I reset my iPod it would help but it only resets settings.
    It's charging ok, but I cannot get it to appear in iTunes. So I can't do anything with it. Help???? There must be a simple solution.

    An update- the link says to trash the /System/Library/Extensions/AppleMobileDevice.kext AND the /Library/Receipts/AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg files (along with iTunes). I did exactly that. It doesn't say anything about reinstalling those two files, only to reinstall iTunes. I assume that means iTunes will reinstall those two files.
    After doing all that i see the /System/Library/Extensions/AppleMobileDevice.kext has been reinstalled but the file- /Library/Receipts/AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg is not there anymore. Why didn't this one reinstall? Is there something else I need to do?

  • Ipod touch not showing in iTunes

    Anyone help?
    On an imac with 10.6.1 Mac OS and iTunes 9.1.1
    Recently the HDD failed and Apple replaced, but since then ipod touch not recognized in iTunes.
    Have followed all the steps in the support document for resetting, rebooting, reinstalling etc. and ipod touch is recognized the first time after following this process, but then after that when I boot up my mac and iTunes a second time, it stops being recognized again. I cannot reinstall iTunes every time I want to sync my ipod touch!!! Anyone else had similar issues and solved?
    Thanks

    I am having a similar issue. I have a 1st-generation iPod touch, and a MacBook running Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.3) and iTunes 9.1.1. It's a bit old now and the WiFi isn't very good, but my iPod touch still works perfectly, except that it doesn't show up in iTunes, which I discovered yesterday when I tried to sync some new music. I got my iTouch G1 the first week they came out and it worked perfectly with my iBook G4 running Tiger, and also worked perfectly with my new MacBook running Leopard which replaced the iBook when its logic board bit the dust. I recently updated to Snow Leopard (about a month ago now), and now my iTouch doesn't show up in my iTunes sidebar, but a volume shows up in Disk Utility that could only be this iPod and things do happen when I plug in the iPod (the first time I connected it since I added some Snow to my Leopard, iPhoto opened and prompted a download of a screenshot I'd taken with the iPod). I'm mostly writing this right now because the support page pertinent to this issue is down due to some sort of Apple web maintenance and I'm tired of getting the same error message. I actually have everything on my Mac backed up, and when I installed Snow Leopard I just did a basic installation but have been thinking of going back and doing a clean wipe and install and then getting the iTunes and iPhoto libraries et cetera off of my external HD. Would this fix my problem? I figure that since my iPod touch's files and system have been constant throughout this, it must be some issue with Snow Leopard, however before I wipe everything and have to set my system up again from scratch, I would like to know if this problem would be fixed by doing that or if there is some problem inherent in Snow Leopard that needs to be manually fixed.

  • My ipod touch 4 gen is showing headphones in but they are not

    My ipod touch 4 gen is showing headphones in but they are not.plz help me

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

    Replace the jack yourself

    When i scan my ipod from the application named find my ipod touch 4 it simply shows location unavailable while that of my cousin's ipod touch exactly shows the same location..... Why does that happen???

    When you go to the Google Maps app on the iPod does it correctly find your location? The iPod's locations service uses the location of the a nearby wifi router to locate te iPod.  However, not all routers are in Apple's database and as of yet nobody here knows of a way to add routers to the database.

  • My Sons Ipod touch keeps coming up showing Low Memory ??? Is there a Simple Fix and How to Delete all the Pages it has Created in Doing so ??? Any Help would be more than Appreciated to Repair this Problem and getting it working back to 100% ... Thank You

    My Sons iPod Touch Recently Reads Low Battery all the Time now Since downloading and Playing COD ...  Is there a Simple Fix for this ???                       Or Something I need to do to Correct it and Also to Possibly Erase all the Low Battery Error Pages it has Created ???  Maybe he needs to Catorogize them or ???  Not Really a Electronics Wizz  or up to date on My iPod Electronics and Repair ...  Just trying to get his iPod back working to 100% again ... Any Help or Direction would be Greatly Appreciated ,,, Thank You,,, Brian  : )

    If the memory is low, double click the home button to bring up the multitask bar, tap on one of the apps shown until they start to shake, then hit the little red minus to close them. After all apps are closed that way, press the home button again and see if it works now.
    Maybe you'll reset the device as well by pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing this, but it can clear some glitches as well.

  • IPod Touch not recognised on Windows 8 and will not appear as connected in iTunes.

    Usually when I plug my iPod Touch (4th Gen) into my laptop (Windows 8) it appears automatically on iTunes for me to sync. However, when I tried to do this today, iTunes did not recognise that a device was connected and this was confirmed after I did a diagnostic test. Windows recognises that an iPod has been plugged in, however where it usually says "Alicia's iPod Touch", it just appears as "Apple iPod" and when I click on it, I cannot access any photos/videos that I have on my iPod. Any help would be very much appreciated if anybody know how I can fix this. Thank you.

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    You need to download and install the latest version of iTunes:

    Ambie12, You should probably start a new thread for your issue if downloading iTunes 7.5 doesn't help.

  • IPOD TOUCH NOT WORKING WITH ITUNES

    I am using:
    iPod Touch 16GB 1.1.4 (With $25 Software Upgrade)
    Windows Vista Premium Edition
    iTunes 7.6.2
    Whenever I connect my iPod, the device connect sound is made and it shows up in the my computer window, but it will not show up or sync with iTunes.
    I HAVE ALREADY TRIED THE FOLLOWING:
    Reseting the computer
    Reseting the iPod
    Using a different USB port
    Using a different cable
    Erasing ALL of the iPod's contents (Yes I lost my $25 update as well)
    Restarting the "APPLE MOBILE DEVICE SUPPORT" in the "systems" application
    ...As well as many other things, all with absolutely NO results.
    I have tried to manage my ipod through other programs, nothing seems to work. I connected the iPod to a different computer and everything worked fine.
    I ASSUME the problem has something to do with the iPod Touch's drivers; for whatever reason they might be corrupted or installed incorrectly, thus preventing the iPod from automatically reinstalling them as well as preventing the possibility of syncing.
    My question is, how can I reinstall the drivers without having the iPod touch do it automatically?
    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

    I fixed the problem myself.
    If anyone else has this same problem and is looking to fix it, here is what I did.
    I found this on another site:
    "Okay well I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple trying to fix this problem. The guy I talked to seemed to have delt with this problem before. He tould me that Apple was getting numerous calls about the iPod touch not connecting with iTunes. So here is the solution that worked for me.
    The first thing you must do it uninstall iTunes and Quicktime using the controll pannel, add/remove hardware, on your windows computer. Once you have uninstalled both of thoes programes go ahead and look for anything else that is Apple and uninstall them as well. There should be an Apple updater or driver that is very critical to uninstall, this was the cause of iTunes not recognizing the new iPod Touch. Next make shure you have the very latest update for Windows on your computer, you can check this on Microsofts web page. Finnaly once you are shure you have UNINSTALLED EVERYTHING that says Apple, iTunes, or Quick time restart your computer and MAKE SHURE THAT YOUR IPOD IS NOT CONNECTED TO YOUR COMPUTER. Then download the newest version of iTunes and install it. Once the installation is complete go ahead and connect the iPod Touch and everything should work.
    I am not shure if this will work for everyone but in my situation it worked. I hope it helps some of you out there!!"
    That worked like a ******* charm. Hope this helps.
