ITunes and tv episodes

My tv episodes only play for 30 seconds after they take hours to download. What am I doing wrong? I am very new to iTunes and it's very confusing sometimes.  I know I have purchased them, and I am not just previewing, but my iPad doesn't seem to recognize this. Any help at all would be much more than appreciated.

Oh gosh. See. So embarrassing asking questions when you're new. I had gone to that app, but didn't see it. So that's when I went to iTunes to play it. After you mentioned it again I went to look at it closer and there's a tab for tv shows. Thank you so much. I knew it had to be something really simple that I was overlooking.

  • Setting series and episode of a TV show in iTunes and now the video won't play

    I have an episode of a TV show in my iTunes library that plays just fine on my laptop and Apple TV. The moment I set the TV shows name, series and episode number (so that it is grouped with the rest of the series) the file will not play on laptop or Apple TV.
    I'm usually ok on iTunes and all other TV shows I am adding I am able to set the tags without any problems.....it's just this one file.
    HELP PLEASE

    I'm having the same problem. Windows 7.

    the title pretty much has my question i guess. it's my first post so i'm not sur if you'll see all of it. I'll just copy paste it anyhow.

    Perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

    I am not a knowledgeable user - have what may be a stupid question!  I just purchased a TV show series on iTunes and downloaded all episodes for the season.  But I believe i want them on my iCloud instead of my laptop.  How do I transfer them to the Cloud or duplicate on the iCloud?

    You can't transfer any purchase to the cloud yourself, whether a TV programme/series will show in the cloud for redownloading in the future depends upon what country that you are in (TV programmes can't be redownloaded in all countries), whether you move countries (you can't redownload purchases made in another country) and if the rights-holder keeps them in the store (they occasionally remove their items).
    As you bought it on your laptop then you could turn Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos (under 'show all') 'on' on your iPad and it might show in the Videos app on it with a cloud icon against it for streaming/redownloading (it might also show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes Store app for refownloading whether or not you turn that 'on') - but that depends upon your country and only whilst it remains in your country's store. Similarly if you delete it from your laptop and tick the 'show iTunes in the cloud purchases' tick box on the Store tab in Edit > Preferences it might show in the TV Shows part of your library for redownloading (and whether or not you tick that it might show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading).
    But you should be taking a backup copy of it, and anything else that you download from the stores, there is no guarantee that you will be able to redownload any item.

    The question is not only how to to hide them, but also how to mark them as watched!

  • I am a podcaster and my episodes are deleted from itunes

    I am a podcaster, and I deleted some of my episodes from the itunes v8 on my computer. Now they no longer show up in the itunes directory. I even go to another computer using itunes and search, and they are gone. How do I get them back?
    Thanks

    They will not show up on your computer because they don't exist on that computer (you deleted them).
    You need to redownload them.
    They will not show up on another computer unless they are downloaded to that specific computer.

  • I have the latest itunes and I've just purchased a season from a series but I cannot the episodes even though they seem to be downloaded. I'm going to the purchased section find the episode and pre play but it only comes up with the 30 sec trailer.

    I have the latest itunes and I've just purchased a TV series but I cannot watch the episodes even though they seem to be downloaded. I'm going to the purchased section find the episode and press play but it only comes up with the 30 sec trailer rather than the full trailer.. any suggestions?

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • Problem with iTunes and Tv Shows

    Hello, i've just installed the last version of itunes and when i select tv shows as my video type, the video stays on my ipod but i can't acces it. The Tv Shows folder is not created and i can't find them in any other video folder. Is there any other way to create the tv show folder since i can't buy tv shows from itunes because i'm from canada, because i would like to import my seasons of "La vie, La vie" and it's 39 episodes so i would like to be able to make tehm their on folder.
    Thanks
    (Sorry for my poor english, but as you can see with the title of my show, english is not my primary language)

    The TV show option seems to only work for those purchased through the ITunes store. I understand the option is there, but it doesn't work. What I do is rename the file before adding to my IPOD. Keep it under "Movies" and type "TV Show - Then Enter the Name of Show". This way you can scroll straight to the TV Show items under Movies. I use this method and have categories for Cartoons (for the kids), News, Family Videos etc. So if you were to go to my IPOD and hit Movies you would see this:
    Cartoon - Bugs Bunny
    Family Video - Thanksgiving 04
    Family Video - Easter 05
    Family Video - Christmas 05
    Movie - Shaw Shank Redemption
    Movie - War of the Worlds
    Movie - Saving Private Ryan
    News - Car Chase in Montana
    I hope this helps you organize your files better.

  • I lose my internet connection when i sync iTunes and ATV. Please help

    Ive just bought a new Apple TV and I am trying to stream TV shows and movies from my iMac via the wireless network.
    The ATV found the right network instantly and I wrote in the password. Ive paired the iMac iTunes and ATV and I can see all the episodes and movies on my TV.
    When I want to start to watch any of it, it loses its connection to the router/network. And so does the iMac. I havent had any trouble with the iMacs connection to the network until now. If Im not trying to watch anything on my TV, the internet is fine on both the ATV and iTunes.
    Does anyone have any experience with this?
    Ive tried to fix the DHCP in my router settings, but im not even sure what that means, let alone if it helps When i lose the internet, I can still see the network name, but when I try to connect, it says that connection timeout.
    I have a D-Link DI 524 router.
    Thanks so much
    Lisa
    EDIT: If I exit iTunes my internet connection is fine. As soon as I start it and iTunes starts to sync with ATV, I lose the internet. Anyone know why and how I can fix it?
    I forgot to add that WAN settings in my router says that I have Dynamic IP Address.
    Thanks

    Okay.. When i stop the syncing between the ATV and itunes, I can watch a movie/TV-show for about 30 seconds, then the network will timeout.
    So i know the atv is working. I have a feeling its the router that is too old? I will try to upgrade its firmware tomorrow, as i was told i couldnt to this when connected to wireless?

  • I bought a Tv show on Itunes and It will only play half way through.

    I Just bought Warehouse 13 season 3 Episode 1 'New Guy.' from the iTunes store and the video only plays to the 16 minute mark when the TV show is about 45 minutes long. What do I have to do in order to watch the rest of the video?

    You should have received an email receipt from iTunes and it should contain a link to report problems, .If not, then use this link to contact iTunes support. https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • I removed my podcast from iTunes, and now I can't get it back on iTunes. How do I get Itunes to add to the Itunes Store?

    When I resubmit my RSS feed, it says it has already been submitted. So I can't get my lisyn podcast back on iTunes. How do I get iTunes to add my iTunes stores? Help Roger Wilmut!
    My RSS feed is feed://filmception.libsyn.com//rss

    I have, and currently have two podcast of the same name in the iTunes database. One appears in the store and one does not (because I believe I removed it)
    If you go to iTunes and go to file, subscribe to podcast, and put in my libsyn feed
    http://filmception.libsyn.com/rss
    it will subscibe you to it. And you'll see the artist info is different then my other podcast (three names)
    If you go to itunes and go to file, subscribe to podcast, and put in my podomatic feed
    http://filmceptionpodcast.podomatic.com/rss2.xml
    it will subscribe you to it. And you'll see the artist info (just my name)
    Are you saying that iTunes removed my libsyn podcast off the store and not me. And is still available to play, and update episodes. But removed it off the store because podomatic exist?
    I've know way of knowing what went on before; but the situation at present is that only the one version is in the Store and it's using the Podomatic feed.
    If you try to submit the Libsyn feed that was removed, one way or another, then you will be told it's already been submitted unless you can make sufficient changes to it to make it look like a different podcast. The title is slightly different from the Podomatic feed, and if it's still being rejected then you will have to try to replace the Podomatic feed with the Libsyn feed. This probably means emailing Support as I doubt you can add the redirection tag to the Podomatic feed (though you could try first.)
    They might respond to an email request (they've been known to do so in the past) or they might not. I don't know whether Robert would be able to put in a request - he would swing more weight with them - but very likely they will only do it (if at all) for the actual owner, for security reasons.

  • How to access purchased iTunes movies/TV episodes without loading large amounts of data on devices

    II have a quick question and I apologize if it has already been addressed in another forum & I had not found it yet (if so please link me to that forum) but I was looking for a way to stream movies and TV episodes that I have purchased on our iTunes account to our iOS devices for my 2 young boys while on a flight to Orlando and while there during a family trip to Disney, along with other different events like long car trips and the like. I was looking into one of the new storage devices coming out later in January of '13 called the Seagate Wireless Plus bit not sure if I was able to get my iTunes movies onto it so that I can stream from it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated on if this device would do the job and if not, any advice on other options.
    Thanks again!
    John

    First I just want to say thank you for the suggestion.
    There were no errors shown just stopped after several hours, also sleep is turned off. What I started doing is taking lets say approximately 6GB at a time and maybe doing this 4 or 5 times and after about 20 to 30 minutes it is done and I do this all over again.
    I will run the disk utility like you suggested and try that again but give or take there are probably 2500 files that are 2+GB in size and then all of the music files we have collected is around 90GB total if not slightly higher.

  • Does subscribing to a podcast on iTunes and Podcasts app result in duplicates on my iPhone

    If I subscribe to a podcast on iTunes and also subscribe to it on the Podcasts app then sync my iPhone (with podcast syncing turned on), will it result in two copies of the episodes on my iPhone?

    Same here. I just posted a question too.
