My TV Playlists do not show up on my new AppleTV

Hi,
When I go to my TV shows (That I own and purchased from iTunes) with my new Apple TV I get three choices at the top:
By Date, By Show, Unwatched.
I can't find any of my TV playlists. I just upgraded to the new Apple TV and have been using the older version for a few years and never had this issue. I have smart playlists for all of my shows and music. Music playlists are easy to find but the TV ones are missing.
I have Restarted the device and my computer several times. I have done all updates.
How do I get the playlists to show up?
My iTunes library is in a one year old iMac and and has worked perfectly otherwise.
Thanks in advance.

THANK YOU ! I had posted this question on another topic forum and got zero replies. You have solved my problem. My setting for playlists was 'music only' and I simply changed it to ALL.
THANK YOU ! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Now I can go to sleep with theTV sleep timer on and two episodes of Lost in Space or Star Trek or The Mary Tyler Moore show playing as I doze off

    Try Settings>Privacy>Location Services and switch it on.  You will see a list of apps that you turn on/off for location services.

    I have an iPhone 4S and when I sync it, the "purchased" and "recently added" playlists do not show up on my phone. For some reason I can't get all the playlists I have set up in iTunes to show up on my phone.

  • When I turn on homesharing my playlists do not show up on both computers.  I got it to work once but can't seem to get back there.

    I am trying to share libraries on two laptops.  I turned on home sharing on both but my playlists are not showing up on both computers.  They did once and then I did something else in iTunes and now they don't.  I must have something checked that shouldn't be.  Thanks

    Use Home Sharing...
    1. Double check that both computers:
    —have iTunes open
    —are connected to the same network
    —have Home Sharing enabled with the same account.
    2. Preferences > General: Shared Libraries should be checked.
    Alternatively...
    1. Preferences > Sharing: Share my library on my local network should be checked on both computers.
    2. Toggle the settings below as you feel necessary.

    Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

    Sorry, don't know what you are asking. You have an old iPad Mini 3 and a new iPad Mini 3?  How did you set up the new iPad? Did you restore it from a backup of the old iPad? What photos are you not seeing?

  • Internet Streams in Playlists do not show up on Apple TV

    I use the following setup:
    - Apple TV MD199LL/A (Software 6.0.1) just updated to the latest
    - iTunes 11.1.3 for Windows (from a Windows 7 x64)
    - iTunes 11.1.3 for MAC (from a Apple MacBook Pro x64, Maverix)
    Homesharing is turned on both computers
    From both machines I share pictures, videos and music.
    All photos, videos and music files are getting displayed  on the Apple TV menu, and can be played.
    All iTunes playlists from both machines are  getting displazed on the Apple TV
    BUT!
    If a internet stream is added to a playlist, this entry does not show on the Apple TV menu.
    If the playlist contains only internet streams the Apple TV menu says "There are no songs in this library"
    If I hit the play key on my remote, it  will randomly play the first stream in the playlist (not realy reproducable pattern)
    I can play those streams in iTunes and send it via AirPlay without problems,
    Can anyone help me with this and tell me what I'm doing wrong?
    Thank you

    You can only view that rental on the iPad. For it to show up it has to be rented directly on ATV or through a computer and streamed via home sharing

  • My smart playlists are not showing up on my iPhone after turning on Music Match

    I have turned on Music Match (iOS 5 GM and iTunes 10.5 r 9) and can see all the songs in my library now across the cloud. The iPhone also has copied over most (but strangely not all) of my regular playlists and my folder structure.
    But all the Smart Playlists I created for my iPhone are not showing up so my music is not grouped the way I want it to be.
    For example, I have a playlist that selects out all the songs with three stars or more that have not been played in the last 2 weeks (so I only hear songs I like, but have not heard lately).
    So what's up??

    Isn't iTunes 10.5 r 9 a beta release for developers?  If that's the case then isn't there a special web site for developers to discuss issues (and they are not supposed to discuss them on the public forum)?  If you're not a developer and have this through unofficial channels then I'm not sure you can expect full functionality.

  • Playlist does not show up on apple tv?

    Every thing else works great. I turned on "show playlist" and it does not apear with albums, songs, ect.
    Gen #2. I think my playlists must not be synced with itunes somehow.
    I did get it to  show up one time from the remote app on my iphone5 but not sure if my computer was off or on.
    Thanks

  • Synching i5s to new PC with iTunes; i5s playlists do not show up in iTunes

    I am trying to synch my i5s to iTunes on a new PC running Windows 7 and after synching, the existing playlists on my i5s do not show up in iTunes. All the songs are there but not the playlists. How can I fix this?

    Thank you. You were right. They all ended up being there and I copied them to the new computer and used the restore option etc. But now I have a new problem.
    Even though all the 7000-odd songs show up in my iTunes library, for every single one if I want to play them, it tells me it can't find their location (with the little exclamation mark). What should I do?

  • Some playlists do not show up on the iPod sync tab...

      I tried doing it manually both through the "manage my music manually" and through the "On this iPod" tab and the playlists will not drag and drop over... Why is this?
    Thanks in advance!

    I don't know what had happened and why - but I got this to work by completely deleting the files out of itunes and reimporting from my external hard drive backup and re-creating the playlists.... not the most ideal solution, but it works.
