Setting TV Show Air Date??? HOW???

I have not yet figured out how to enter TV shows air dates so it will show up on the apple tv. How does one enter it so it will look like iTunes purchased shows???
Thanks in Advance

I have run into this same problem. The "Get Info" section for a video in iTunes does not have a place to enter the original air date. iTunes also has its own database file and I suspect that is where the additional information is kept.
The iTunes database file itself is a binary file that cannot be easily edited, at least without risk of corrupting the data it contains. Some of the criteria used by Apple TV for sorting appears to come from the iTunes database file, thus appears to be beyond user control, unfortunately.
I have also noticed that Apple TV sometimes has the annoying tendency to sort files I've made myself based on the file date rather than the information I entered for it in iTunes. In addition, the sort order in the Apple TV file list in iTunes does not always match the actual order of the files in the Apple TV menu itself.
At this point I would categorize these Apple TV sorting problems as iTunes/Apple TV software bugs that need to addressed by Apple.

  • Aired Date - US date format only?

    Is there a way of showing +Aired Date+ in a date format other than the US one?
    US date formats are very confusing and catch you out if you are used to the eminently more sensible DD/MM/YYYY format.
    This is particularly annoying when tagging content for the Apple TV with Meta X or Subler, as you have to remember to put the first to two parts of the date in backwards.
    I've never understood the US date format as it doesn't flow properly - ie. smallest/bigger/biggest -(the US one is oddly bigger/smallest/biggest)!

    United States (civilian vernacular: mm/dd/yy or mm/dd/yyyy; other formats, including dd Month yyyy and yyyy-mm-dd, are common or prescribed—particularly in military, academic, scientific, computing, industrial, or governmental contexts.)
    I always find it interesting just how the US proscribe something as being a 'Standard' when what they really mean is that it is way the US does it. In the same way as English is referred to as 'International English' and American English is just called English by American corporations

  • How to set the filter on a report to show the data for the Current Month

    Hi all,
    I am working on a report, which currently has this filter: Date First Worked is greater than or equal to 10/01/2010. This reports show the data for the current month, so at the beginning of each month we have to remember to change the date on the filter.
    Does anyone know what the criteria should say, so that it automatically changes and shows the information for the current month, without us having to go in and change anything?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    AA

    You need to add a session variable to date fir worked assuming that this is a date field.
    To do this open up the filter on the field then at then press add Variable then "session" and enter the following CURRENT_MONTH into the Server Variable section.

    They're not lost, they simply don't show because you settings ask it not to.

  • HT3546 How do I set up my air port extreme to do port forwarding? Running 10.7.4 I have a IP camera on my local wireless net work that I want to use from my iPhone 4s and other computers.

    How do I set up my air port extreme to do port forwarding? Running 10.7.4 I have a IP camera on my local wireless net work that I want to use from my iPhone 4s and other computers.

    In most cable systems, the router you have will plug into your modem and just work automatically. A NAT (Network Address Translation) router takes your external IP and hands out LAN (Local Area Network) based IPs. All of the devices you are working with right now should handle the change automatically unless you've changed from the default automatic configuration.
    The problem with your wireless end of this is that the iPhone is not yet 802.11n, only 802.11g. Because that router is not dual band, all of your wifi devices will be forced to slow down to 802.11g speeds. This won't matter much for each device that's connecting to the internet, as your bottleneck is still going to be there. Where you will see slowdowns is device to device connections, like transferring data between the devices.

    I just created a slide show with iPhoto 11 on my MacBook Air.  How do I save this to a DVD on my external drive so that it will play on a DVD player?

    Hi
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.

    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

    Hi,
    Is BI show
    jan-08 customer 001 amount 200
    or
    jan-08 customer 001 amount 100 ?
    What is the aggreagation for amount?
    If it is sum then it shoud be 200 for amount.
    is there a column in your table that is different for those 2 lines with jan-08 customer 001 amount 100 like an ID or something?
    if yes then add that id in you dimmension table and then in your report.
    In this case you will get those 2 lines.
    There is another way but I know it shoudn't be used. To set none for aggregation rule.

  • Video- Shows with air date info?

    I just noticed MTV got added on to the Itunes Video Store. Shows like the Gauntlet and Punk'd. Anyways is there more information about these shows before you buy besides the description of that episode. I was looking for the original/first air date. If I was to purchase a show, it would be one I didnt see and was willing to watch on a trip/flight, etc. Air date for me is easier to some extent even though yes a description is useful as well.
    Is it true that all new episodes appear on Itunes the day after the air date?

    Hi Jonathon
    Air Video allows you to stream all media formats (avi etc) from your iMac via your iPad to Apple tv. Therefore there is no need to convert your movies to mp4 format so that can stream from iTunes to Apple tv.
    Any thoughts on how to get Air Video to work or reconfigure Apple TV 2 to stream all video formats from iTunes and not just mp4??
    Cheers

  • My neighbour's Mac Book Pro shows up as discoverable when Bluetooth is turned on in my iPad Air.  How can I block her device?  How can I prevent her pairing with my iPad Air. I need Bluetooth on to play music over my system.

    My neighbour's Mac Book Pro shows up as discoverable in my Bluetooth list on my iPad Air.  How can I block her Bluetooth device? How can I prevent her pairing with my device?  I need Bluetooth to stream music on my Bose system.  Thanks!

    If your device is discoverable, the other BT device would try (I am not sure if that would be successful). If it was, it would appear in your system preferences>Bluetooth.
    Take a look at this re: security:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10786
    This is from another Apple article:
    Use Bluetooth
    You can wirelessly transfer files between computers—even Mac to PC—using the Bluetooth File Exchange utility. You can even browse selected devices and retrieve files remotely. For extra security, you can stipulate that only trusted devices be allowed to connect to your Mac, and 128-bit over-the-air encryption is also available

    P.S. Since I have not had the issue, I have not researched this before. Thank you for making me look into BT security

  • How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?

    Hello guys,
    Very embarassing question, because I've had Apple's for all of my life (starting with the original Apple Macintosh) but I still haven't figured out one thing
    How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?
    When I go to System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats I can set different formats. I have no idea where you will see these, but I know that it's not the top bar where the time and date is being displayed. Because no matter what I enter, the format in the top bar will stay the same. I can only choose things like 24-Hour clock or not, blinking dots and so on in the Time & Date settings from the System Preferences.
    Can anyone here point me in the right direction? I see you can even choose to display the week of the year - I'd love to do that!
    All help appreciated!
    Greetings

    Language & Text system preferences, Formats tab, customize dates.
    There are also many third party menu item utilities that can.  Search Macupdate.com for some.
    One search yielded iClock Pro.  Although I never used it I would think it allows customization.  The link I gave you is to the Macupdate download page for that app.  On that same page is a Similar Software section which has other apps that can do the same thing. 
    One listed is iStat Menus.  The primary use for iStat Menus is not for displaying date/time but it does do that.  And I know it can do what you want because I use iStat Menus to track temperature sensors n my machine and, like you, I want to customize the menu time/date.  So I use it instead of the apple clock.  It does have the customization features I think you are looking for.

  • How to show only date in BO webi 3.1 text box

    how to show only date in BO webi 3.1 text box for e.g:-
    01/01/2005  (no time only date)

    hi,
    just check by which format your date is coming
    just create a one variable and check =UserResponse("Transaction Date From (mm/dd/yy)")
    if your output is in format of("mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a")
    then some format we have to write in todate syntax
    then your final formula for date would be
    =FormatDate(ToDate(UserResponse("Transaction Date From (mm/dd/yy)");"mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss A");"dd/mm/yyyy")
