Movie not on apple tv list, but is playable by apple remote (iphone)

Sorry about the crazy title, I don't know how to say this succinctly.
I have just gotten a new apple tv and have synced several movies to it, but still have my entire library on my mac pro streaming to it. There are a couple of movies that show up on itunes under the appletv device, they also show up on my iphone remote AND can be played on the apple tv by the apple remote on my iphone. however, it does not show up in the movies list on my apple tv. I have had a couple of older ripped movies not show up and reencoding them did the trick with the apple tv preset on handbrake, but the tricky one is Wall-E which is the digital copy from the blu-ray. meaning, this one is downloaded from itunes, and is totally legit. It plays on my appletv, but only from my remote on my iphone, I cannot see it or play it from the apple tv directly.
btw, I now see the reencoded movies on apple tv, but I was still able to play them from the remote, before encode...
I have tried syncing it, then unsyncing it then syncing again, no luck. even not syncing it, it doesn't show up....

I think I know what happened, I am not at home to double check, but can someone confirm this? in 2.3 apple added the ability to group movies by labeling them in the Show field of the video tab of get info. My guess is, and I can confirm when I go home, that the missing movies are in a "folder" called animated, that I over looked when scrolling down looking for a specific title. This is actually a good thing, but I didn't label the show field specifically, though it certainly is labeled on those tracks that I am missing, at least the couple I checked, and the ones that I do see, nothing is in that field. (thanks to back to my mac, now just allow screensharing on my apple tv... :))
This is a great feature, just don't like it being entered without my knowledge...
I will confirm upon getting home, but I bet if you have a large library and things go missing, make sure you have checked for folders. I know in my case, I added a genre to these movies by command selecting them and selecting get info, then changed the genre only. Either by bug or design, the Show field was also populated automatically. (both said animated) those that I entered the genre by itslef or in the library without get info, did not seem to populate the show field...

A movie shows in my purchased list but not in the Movies list...

The purchase history on your iTunes account will only show purchases from the iTunes stores (iTunes, app store, ibookstore, Mac app store), not from Apple online or bricks-and-mortar stores.
Does anything show on your credit card ? If the email is genuine then it's possible that your and their email addresses are similar and that they gave the wrong id (or the store typed it incorrectly), it doesn't necessarily mean that anybody has access to your account.
For the contact, you will initially just receive an acknowledgement email, the proper reply may take 24 (possibly 48) hours.

How can I stop using my primary Apple ID (Gmail) but leave my secondary Apple ID (icloud) as primary ond only ONE?

Good afternoon friends.
Please help me and tell how can I stop using my primary Apple ID (Gmail) but leave my secondary Apple ID (icloud) as primary ond only ONE?
I started using Apple ID in 2011 when iCloud was not exist and was forced to use non-apple e-mail adress as primary ID.
So I used GMail mailbox.
When iCloud was started I created my account but unfortunatelly can't remove this Gmail address from my Apple ID and replace it with icloud mail address.
I was VERY dissapointed because I don't want to use "outside" mailbox to get letters from Apple and ny ID.
In fact I see the Apple old users and fans discrimination.
When creating new user accounts are free to create a box on the iCloud mail and use it as a primary ID, and the only ONE.
At the same time the old user is obliged to keep third-party mail box like Gmail etc. as the primary and can not get such an opportunity, as a new user
This is extremely inconvenient and a VERY strange logical.
For example, now I want to stop using this mailbox on Gmail but I can not do that because in this case I lose access to my ID, or run the risk that someone in the future will create a box with the same name on Gmail (when name will be free and available) and will automatically get access to my accounts on Apple and to my Apple ID.
Now, to avoid this, your team, I offer the only way out: ID, create anew.
Of course it's possible, but then:
- I lose all my purchases for 3 years and will be forced to make them again and pay money for the second time for my purchases
- Lose access to the familiar iCloud e-mail address who now serves as secondary ID because this e-mail address is almost no longer available and will never be released in future.
And now answer me for ONLY TWO questions:
- WHERE IS LOGIC?
- WHAT ABOUT TO BE FRIENDLY FOR YOUR USERS AND FANS?
Thank you!
Hopefully for your GOOD answers.

You cannot make your @icloud.com address the login address for the ID. However you can change your ID, currently a Gmail one, to any other functioning non-Apple email address. The Gmail address would then no longer access your account, and so even if someone were to obtain posession of it (is that even possible) it wouldn't allow them to get into your account.
If you want to change your ID to another email address please follow the procedure outlined below, particularly noting the first step.
Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
Create a new email address, for example at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.

I have seral email accounts on my Mac. One does not work on the Mac but works on my iPad and iPhone. The account information was added on the Mac. I keeps rejecting my password.

You don't input the information in manually for iCloud mail. It is automatically set up for you when you sign into iCloud via System Preferences and choose the Mail checkbox. Sign out of iCloud or deselect Mail in iCloud preferences. Open Mail's preferences and choose accounts tab. If iCloud account still exists in the list, delete it. Sign back into iCloud or check the box for mail. The account will be auto created for you.

Artist name does not appear in artist list but album name is in album list - Ipod Classic 160gb

For an album I have imported onto my iPod from iTunes, the album name is in the Album list but the Artist name is not on the Artist list. I have tried deleting the album from the iPod and re-adding from ITunes but the same result. It is a single artist album, so the artist name is exactly the same for each track; all the tracks are there. Big nuisance as I use artist name a lot to find specific albums.

Possibly because your problem (you say) was the album name. The original post was about the artist name and is therefore a different problem.

...I had to fill in the Album for each song, then it showed on my ipod, for ones I did ot know, I just put bloody apple.
Huh?
Let me get this right, you had lots of songs without the album name in them, so you filled in the album name yourself - if you knew the album name. If you didn't know the album name, you then entered the same text on all the rest of those songs. So now, you must have a lot of songs all on the same album, even though they're not meant to be - and - you've put text in to a lot of your songs that will remind you forevermore, of just how unhappy you are.
Well! &
My question to you is; where did you get the songs from, that they came without the correct information in them?
If you imported them from a CD, iTunes will go and get the information for you.
If you bought the songs from the iTunes Store, or another music retailer, the information is in the digital file that you purchased.
How therefore, does so much of your music appear to be incomplete?
Am I missing something, or have you simply failed to explain the porblem properly?

I can' see my apple tv listed on airplay. iI have scrolled through the entire list and mine is not there. I can see other apple tv devices on the network but not mine. I'm using an ipad 2. I have checked the network settings between the devices and they're OK. Any thoughts?

Hi jl5653,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like the Apple TV is not listed in the selector window. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

I am Apple Fans. But I am totally diappointed by iPhone 5. I am using iPhone 5 and find the Apps not compateble with the software. Their pages are having 2 big black banner at top

For iPhone 5 with IOS6, all Apps appear ugly page on the screen. There is 2 black banner at top & bottom of the screen. It is totally acceptable.
I am your Apple Fans. But this phone make me extremely dissatisfied.

If "It is totally acceptable" why does "this phone make me extremely dissatisfied"?
You must have a white iPhone 5. With a black one the black bars are not so obvious.

Some .htm file not displaying in Topic List, but displaying in RH11 folder

Hi All,
We are running a project using RH 11, team consist of 3 person (include me)
But we have problem with many .htm file from my 1st coworker, file not displaying in Topic List in my Robohelp and 2nd coworker.
Although we already get the latest file again and again
But .htm file displaying in all our RH11 folder.
In my 1st coworker RH, all file displaying in Topic List also RH11 folder, but when file generated then
Many files from 1st coworker, hyperlink is not working well (broken link / file not found)
Does anyone have experience about this problem
Thanks

First of all, make sure you do not have the following files in source control: .cpd, .pss, .ldb.
These files contain local information that can cause problems when in source control.
Then try this:
Everyone deletes the .cpd file.
Everyone gets the latest files for the whole project from source control.
Open the project.
Does everything now display correctly?
If yes, you need to make sure you delete the cpd file before opening the project each day, and also during the day if you know a co-worker has made changes that you need. This file is a database which includes a list of all the files Robohelp knows about. When other people are adding and removing files, this information no longer matches properly. I recommend doing a Get Latest in these situations as well, just to make sure Robohelp can find the correct information.
If you are still not seeing the correct files repeat the above process, but at step 2, pick the options to Overwrite local files. I can't say where you will see these options - they may be two checkboxes in a dialog box when you select Get Latest - it will depend on your source control application.
Hope this helps.

HT3209 iTunes Movies not playing in MacBook Pro, but work on iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.

I have purchased several HD movies from iTunes and none of them work on my MacBook Pro (purchased in 2010). I keep getting a message that says my media player doesn't support the videos. How is this possible if I legally purchased these through iTunes and they work on all of my other devices? Any help is greatly appreciated!

correct me if i am wrong, but you do not get that option to convert movie to ipod/iphone, just to acc that i recall.

Album does not appear in Albums list but is on iPod

Several albums I have loaded onto my iPod do not show up in the Albums list. The strange thing is, is that they are on the iPod because I can search for the tracks and they are available on the iPod.
At first I thought they might be compilation albums, but I checked and they're not. I'm not sure why this is happening.
I have the latest version of iTunes and my Ipod classic has the latest firmware.
Any help would be appreciated

Presumably you do have an album name entered for each of the tracks on these albums? When the track is playing, the song title is on the first line (of the iPod's display), the artist is on line two and the album name is on line three.
Is there anything special about the album names? Names beginning with a number digit will be placed after the letter z. Also, names in the Greek alphabet will be after z but before numbers! (I only happen to know as I have some Greek music on my iPod.) What about asterisks, question marks and so on? Perhaps there is a leading space _in front_ of the title, which might place the album out of alphabetical order.
What happens if you look at the album list in iTunes, in alphabetical order? Do they show up in the correct place?

Album art not showing in album list but is there

In the list of albums, some of the album art is not showing, but when I click to view the song list, it is there. See screenshot which explains it much better.
Any ideas on how to fix. (Reimporting album art does not work)

Gonna give this a bit of a bump - sorry.

Song not appearing in purchased list, but on the store it says purchased

Hi,
I've downloaded a song off my old ipod and bought a new ipod a few days later. But the song I downloaded isn't appearing in the purchased list, however on the itunes store it says 'purchased' next to it, but there isn't an option to download it. I've tried synching the ipod, selecting transfer purchases, clicking on 'Check for Available downloads' but it says all purchases have been downloaded. But I'm out of ideas, does anyone know any solutions?
Thanks.

By purchased list do you mean the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page ? That is where you can re-download items (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries). If music appears as a category on that screen but that track doesn't show then is it hidden from the list (hiding and unhiding purchases) ?
If the song is still on the iPod then conncting it and doing 'transfer purchases' should copy it over to the Music part of your library. If the song was bought on your iPod then it won't appear in the Purchased section under Store on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes as it wasn't bought on that computer.
The 'check for available downloads' will look for items that haven't yet been downloaded from the store e.g. tv episodes from a series pass, pre-orders.

My phone (iphone 4) is texting - but I'm not? it is also calling random people not in my contact list - but I'm not doing this and there is no record of it in missed or recent calls

Random texting to my contacts?

You clearly did not notice that you have joined a USER TO USER COMMUNITY FORUM
This is NOT Apple ,Apple do not read nor do they therefore respond
So if you would like to wind your neck in ........................
try a reset of iPhone and then a restore,best, as new and if it then functions correctly try restoring with your backup
