Ripped TV Shows from DVDs do not show up in iPod TV Shows category/folder

I have ripped some DVD TV shows and want them on my iPod. I have properly used the ID tag (Under Show Info, Options tab) to choose TV Show as the correct "Video Kind". But still they don't show up on my iPod in the TV Shows folder. Other videos that are from music CDs I have labeled Music Videos but they show up on my iPod in the Movies Folder.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

there is discussion on this on the "Using Fifth Gen iPod" Board

TV shows from iTunes are not sorted correctly on iPod

I bought episodes of a TV show from the iTunes store and all of a sudden nothing is sorted correctly anymore. They're completely fine on iTunes but on my iPod Classic (it's the newest one, 160 GB) it just doesn't seem to want to work. I've tried restoring it a few times but so far, no change. And I've checked all the tags and everything so it shouldn't be wrong but I'm thinking the issue is with my iPod, not iTunes.

I had the same issue with this. what I did to fix it was select the shows in the TV playlist, then apple - i to get info, click on the video tab, select "TV Show" from the "video kind:" pull down menu.
Resync the touch. You should see the files in the video playlist on the Touch. I'm not sure why they let you sync tv shows if they don't appear on the Touch. In any case, the above work around should work for you.
Good luck.

Help!!! my TV shows purchased from Itune will not load into my ipod

I have updated software in both Itune and Ipod, still, the error message of cannot load video into your ipod because this video cannot be played in this ipod is still showing up. I have loaded the sample video and it worked. My TV shows can be played in Itune and yet cannot load to my ipod.
Apple support line does not help at all.

Use automator to rip all videos from DVD

I have set up a workflow in automator to extract a video from an archival DVD. However, the program is only ripping ONE file when there should be 4-5 files on there. Any ideas? I am running this process on Mountain Lion.

Hi guys,
A few months ago I started using a program called DVD Ripper Platinum for PC and it has been the best software for ripping and encoding to several formats. What sold me is that it is extremely easy (2-3 clicks) and it rips ALL commercial dvds (even Disney ones with the new protection).
There is a mac version of the software, but I have not used it. The only think I have observed is that is lacking some minor features that the PC version has.
Here is the link:
http://www.flash-video-soft.com/dvd-ripper-mac/
Its not free, but I can assure that if it works just like it does in the PC, its worth every penny.
I'm planning on using the PC version (since I already bought it, not buying it twice!) in a mac mountain lion running parallels 6.

Some movies from DVD won't show up on ATV

I'm having a problem with ripped movies.
Some movies ripped from DVDs I own do not show up on ATV. (Streaming)
For example, I ripped 2 disc set of "The Lord of the Rings: Extended edition" by HandBrake 0.8.5b1, using exact same setting (FFmpeg 4, 2300kbps).
I see both files on iTunes. I see the disc 2 on ATV and it plays just fine, but not disc 1. Disc 1 does not show up on ATV under Movies section.
Restarting iTunes, Mac itself, ATV or re-pairing ATV with Mac didn't work.
Do you have any idea what I'm missing here?
Thanks for your advice.
[Setup]
iTunes Server: MacBook C2D
Movie Files: Stored on an External USB drive connected to AEBS (802.11n)
MacBook C2D (Black, 2GB RAM) Mac OS X (10.4.9) Apple TV, iPod Shuffle (Aluminum), Airport Extreme (n)

It may be worth checking you've got the correct sound settings.
I converted a recorded TV show into a mov using H264 encoding and AAC, or so I thought.
I cannot see the file on aTV and if I sync it say the movie cannot play on aTV.
The reason looks to be that the audio was erroneously saved as an incorrect format (Integer, Big endian) - no idea if this was a conversion glitch or user error, but I was convinced it was the video rate when it's probably the audio all along!

Can you import shows from DVDs???

I just got a new video ipod and instead of spending money on shows from the music store can I import shows from DVDs???

The ripping guide in the external link ought to work just fine, but the main reason I'm posting is to say that it would be quite unreasonable to use HandBrake to rip a DVD, especially with 2-pass encoding, if you care the slightest bit about the longevity of your optical drive. Before further experimentation, you might want to know that HandBrake also supports encoding from DVD folders and images, which can be extracted in a matter of minutes (not hours and even days) using other free software. And of course none of this will ever work with any DVDs except the ones you've made yourself and own the rights to. Pakko sanoa semmoista, voi vitsi.

Dowloading TV Shows from DVD's to Visio

Does anyone know how to dowload TV shows from DVD's to your Vision M? I have Windows Media Player . For two days I've been trying to save (rip) one of my favorite televison show DVD's and I just can't get it right.
Can I download the contents of the TV Show DVD directly to my Zen Vision M?
Thank you.......
P.S. I am definitely a novice computer user. (That's why I love the Zen so much..... It took me only about 20-25 minutes to load my pictures and music library when I first got the player.)Message Edited by MP3User on 08-3-2006 09:9 AM

The issue with DVD's is unique as its not really a matter of Fair use, but a matter of copyprotection and encryption.
Under fair use laws, yes you are allowed to take something you purchased and use it on another device.
But DVD's are protected from copying (and reading for that matter) by a digital encryption scheme.
Under the DMCA if you break the CSS copyprotection on a DVD to copy it, you are breaking the law. Untill a court overides the law in favor of the consumers (doubt that will happen), it is illegal to sell software or use software to copy a "protected" DVD.
http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-353_7-528652.htmlThe laws very significantly on this by country to country, to creative doesn't allow people to discuss how to copy DVD's at all here in the forums, because they don't want to run a foul of any other countries laws where they opperate.Search on DVD and DMCA on google and you will find quite a bit of information. There have been many court cases where software manufacturers have lost because they sold DVD Copying software that would copy CSS protected DVD. Am not aware of any cases where an individual has been convicted for copying DVD's for personal use. All I can say is proceed at your own risk. The link above lists which software packages are considered illegal and legal in the courts eyes.

I am having trouble with my Mac Mini's ethernet connection. Defining a new network interface shows no ethernet adaptor. Reloading SL from DVD repaired. But SL update lost ethernet again. Will Lion Fix?

I am having trouble with my mac mini ethernet. It had been working for weeks after an update to SL 10.6.8.
Once it went out and i repaired it by defining a new connection from System Preferences ->Network->(left panel service, +).
But yesterday, after a power up. my ethernet was not working again. I tried this old trick to repair it, but the interface choices
listed for '+' a new service did not include Ethernet any more. And the Utilities->System Profiler->Ethernet Cards shows
no ethernet available.
As a last ditch effort i reloaded my original SL from DVD. (I think it was version 10.6.4 but i could be mistaken on the version).
The ethernet worked! But KeyNote wasn't going to work because apparently the version i purchased depends on 10.6.8.
So I upgraded again to SL 10.6.8 (Plus some other updates like AirPort which i don't use).
Now the Ethernet is not working again. I see the same symptoms as before with the Ethernet seeming not installed.
Is this a problem seen by others?
Would going to Lion fix the problem?
Could AirPort actually be the culprit and not SL?
If i stay with my original SL, would i need to repurchase a version of KeyNote for the older version of SL?

Have you reset the SMC?
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
While you're at it, resetting the PRAM won't hurt anything and 'might' help is SMC reset didn't work (PRAM does some port control):
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Something else you might try .... you don't say how you're updating to 10.6.8, however, if you're using Software Update, you might try downloading the 10.6.8 combo update, which contains all updates to 10.6. Sometimes, Software Update doesn't work quite right, and installing the combo update fixes that. Download the update from Apple's download site at http://support.apple.com/downloads/ , using Disk Utility repair permissions, apply the combo update, then repair permissions again.

Hi,
First, try the automated fixit from Microsoft on the link below.
Windows 7
Vista
Check if the drive is now working.
If it still doesn't work, click the Start Menu, open All Programs, open Accessories, right click the Command Prompt and select 'Run as Administrator'. In to the prompt type the following command and hit enter.
sfc /scannow ( note that there is a space between sfc and the / )
Let the process complete, then type exit and hit enter.
Next, click the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager. Next click to open DVD/CD-ROM Drives. Right click the drive and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked. When the device has uninstalled click on the 'Scan for Hardware Changes' icon ( usually just below Help on the toolbar ). Let windows reinstall the drive and see if it now works.
Regards,
DP-K

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I have songs that have been purchased and they show up in my I tunes but the are not showing up bold like all other songs in my library, they will not let me download from the cloud and will not load onto my ipod.

I have a handfull of songs in my library that are not showing up bold like the other songs. When I click the icon to download from the cloud nothing happens and they will not load onto my ipod. When I look for them in the purchased area they show up as purchased and downloaded.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
So far as I am aware, books haven't been available for 6 years, so I'm wondering if you mean audiobooks.
Audiobooks are not currently part of the content that can be re-downloaded.

OK. If you believe that.
When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.

IPhoto on Mac not showing photostream. My photos from iPhone were not on my Mac, I tried to import using cable. Now the photos show in iCloud only. It seems frozen. On trying to close iPhoto down got message that photos being imported. 6 hours ago

I have IMac on Yosemeite, 500GB. IPhone 5 on 8.2. My photos, from iPhone, had not appeared via photo stream on my Mac. I had been away from a while But expected the photos to appear on the Mac. There were 1000 in Photostream and 1200 in Camera Roll. I used a cable to import the Camera Roll, it stopped importing after 1000 photos. The photos, though, are in iCloud and I don't know how to access them to put them to Events. There are 3 recent Photostream events showing up in IPhoto withOut any photos. I tried to import to Library but was directed to Finder and no access to iPhoto. I tried to shut down iPhoto but got a message telling me photos were being imported. That's 6 hours ago and I'm still getting the same message. I don't know what to do. I'm not an expert, just a user.

HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
i tried to sort it out by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated.
