TV seasons putting the episodes of the same season in different lists on my devices

I have several TV shows I bought and downloaded on iTunes. All sync to my devices just fine except one show (which only has one season so far). When I try to sync that show to my iPad or iPhone, it breaks the season into 5 different lists with one or more episodes in each list but not one of the lists is a complete one. Is there a way to get the episodes to sync in one list to my devices? I've looked at the settings and everything seems to match the other shows that come across the way they are supposed to. I am not sure what to do now.

Always keep all files in the same folder, very important.
you can move them to the same folder, then right click and select "relink asset" then find it.
Muse is pretty good about finding other assets after that, it should auto find all the other assets in the folder you moved them too.
if not you will need to relink manually, one by one

HT5731 why are the episodes of the season passes I bought not downloading, even though I have recieved the notification mail telling me that they are available?

the episodes of the season passes are not downloading, when i try to download it from the link sent to me in the notificaition mail, the message "Unable to Process Your Request" appears.
thanks for your help
George

Apologies if this is an off-target question, but had you bought the HD season originally or just the SD version?
The reason I ask is that I have had similiar difficulties with the autodown load and when I check for available downloads on season passes, it says all downloaded.
Then, when I go to the store and search for the season, it first brings up the HD season indicating I would need to make a new purchase, but if I select on SD, there are my purchases and I can freely (and manually) download the latest episode without new cost.
Needless to say, neither of us should have to go looking. Here is the iTunes technical support email: <[email protected]>. I encourage you to email them. I have already done so but I think it helps for anyone with this problem to also do so, so that they will realize it is a wider spread issue and not a human error by a single user.

Two PDF's - 1 created from Illustrator and the other Acrobat. Same colour is different in both. Why?

Two PDF's - 1 created from Illustrator and the other Acrobat. Same colour is presented differently in both pdf documents. Why?

Hi - sorry pressed send too quickly....
I have two PDF documents that show a sample business card in PDF.
One was apparently created through illustrator and is the focument for the printers ... it is this document that shows a completely different colour to the one that is in the other PDF that was apparently created in Acrobat. Though designers assure me that they are exactly the same patenone and that it's the software interpretting it.
What i dont understand is why the colours would look different using the software from the same company....and why designers would put up with this as a basic layman it just looks plain wrong to me.

Apple Podcast app won't display past episodes of The Rachel Maddow Show. Does anybody know why you can only listen to the episode from the last day, and then it disappears?

I love the Rachel Maddow Show but rarely get to watch it on TV. So I rely on the podcasts to listen to every day. I've been using Stitcher but Apple's more recent Podcast app has much better functionality (downloading episodes to listen to on the subway & plane, for instance). However, for some reason (and it appears to only be TRMS podcasts), the Apple Podcast app ONLY displays the last episode. For some reason, each day, the last episode disappears from the app.

Same here! Older episodes don't necessarily disappear as soon as new ones come in; sometimes I have a few episodes on the iPhone, and can listen to them normally. But then I'll look later, and all but the latest will have disappeared. I'll have to start paying attention to discover what triggers the wipe; my guess is that syncing with iTunes does it, but I don't know yet.
Whatever the cause, it's odd. I thought that perhaps queued episodes would stick around if I partially listened to them (thus ensuring that they get actually downloaded, I'd think), but partially-viewed episodes and unviewed episodes both disappear. I can understand that an episode that never got downloaded might become unavailable after a day or few, but why would one already downloaded get automatically erased?
It's also worth noting that I don't have the problem in iTunes on the Mac. Episodes there stick around in the normal fashion. The problem is just on my iPhone, and just with this one podcast.
If anyone knows what's up, please tell!

Is there any way to manually put podast episodes in the correct order. sometimes they download in reverse.

Some of the podcasts that I download are not in numerical order and will play in the correct order, is there a way to automatically or manually fix this?

Effectively, the only realistic way to play Podcasts in the order you want on an iPod Classic is either:
to put them into a Playlist, in the order you want.
turn on the Shuffle feature, which would allow you to select one Podcast to play, and then the iPod will stop at the end of that episode, because iTunes marks all Podcasts as Skip when shuflfing. This means that when the chosen one finishes, all the others are skipped, because you are playing in Shuffle mode and there is nothing left to play.

HT5731 I bought a full season of a TV show. I downloaded all episodes. When I go into my iTunes library, select the episodes I get a message of: This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. I can't for the life of me get the TV show to play.

I bought a full season of a TV show. I downloaded all episodes, I went to my iTunes library, selected the episode I wanted to watch. I got this message: This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. I can't for the life of me get the TV shows to play. I went on iTunes and when to my purchases. Clicked on the episodes and the same message popped up. How do I get these to play? I also see my download box with an error message saying it has paused the download. I click unpause and it just pauses again. I have been able to get one of the episodes to play once through, but now it gives me the same message.

It's been months, so you may not care anymore, but you can't download songs from multiple Apple IDs over a 90 days period. Sorry, it's not allowed for legal reasons.

How do I put all the episodes from a TV show into one iTunes folder?

Can someone tell me how to put all the episodes from a TV show into one folder? I'm not sure how I did this, but while converting my dvd's to digital on my computer, one TV show (Firefly) created one folder with the Firefly name, and within that folder are all the episodes. I've tried to recreate this with MASH, but it just puts each episode into the TV library. This gets very messy with alot of different TV shows. Help! Thanks!!

In principle TV Shows are grouped on the Show field and within a show sub-grouped on Season No. In practice recent builds of iTunes and/or Apple TV firmware seem to be taking account of Album, Artist & Album Artist in certain views. For consistency I would suggest the following approach:
Show = Album = <Show Name>
e.g. "30 Rock"
Artist = Album Artist = <Show Name> Cast (or something like that)
e.g. "30 Rock Cast"
Season No. = <Season No.> or <Blank> (Separate seasons or all listed together)
e.g. 1-3
Episode ID = s##e## (This field, sorted alphabetically, controls order)
e.g. s01e01 - s03e58 (use s##e### when >99 episodes)
Episode No. = Track No. = <Absolute Episode No.>
(Can also be per season, but abs. is better) e.g. 1 - 58
Disc No. = <Season No.> (Can be set even if merging seasons)
e.g. 1-3
Taking this approach you can always merge or split into individual seasons simply by clearing or setting the Season No. field.

I cannot download an episode from my cloud to my iPAD, but the rest of the season worked.

I initially tried to download the first few episodes of a show that I had purchased in iTunes and kept getting a "download error" for episode one, but others would download just fine. Then I tried "download all" and the entire season downloaded to my iPad just fine, except for that first episode.
I can't find a way to get the episode from the cloud. I also do not know how to delete the failed attempt from the "downloads" section of iTunes on my iPad.
I'd appreciate any help.

The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works. Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up. Try them again.
Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp. Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp. Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.
Kep trying.

Bought a season pass and can't play the episode twice.

Hello I bought a season pass to the Walking Dead. I downloaded the 1st episode to my computer and played it once. The next day i wanted my son to watch it on the computer and it didn't work. My Windows 7 OS is/was updated and ITunes is/was already up to date. Is that generally how it works?

Could you be more specific about the problem than "didn't work"? Does it just not play, do you get any error messages, etc? Was your son attempting to watch the episode via the same Windows user account and same iTunes library as you used?
Without more details about the problem, it's difficult to diagnose the problem and offer suggestions.
Regards.

I purchased Game of Thrones season 4, the episodes names are in sequence but the content is not please help

Game of thrones season 4, playing on apple TV version3, on a sony smart tv. The episode names are in sequence but the episode content is not example
Episode 3 The breaker of chains is actually the oath keeper and vice versa

Apple can only have the episodes in the store that the TV company have passed to them, and at the moment that looks like just the first 2 episodes of that series - the first episode was only added on 25th March, and the second on 7th April (which is more than are available in the US or here in the UK)

I'm waiting for itunes to add the rest of the Starz series 'spartacus' seasons! when will they have it?incomplete seasons!

i just started watching the starz series 'spartacus' which i know ended! but i am confused! ive bought seasons 1-2 on itunes and it dont make sense.some seasons are missing!ive already bought 'blood and sand' season 1 & 'vengance' season 2 i know this sounds dumb but ive watched season 2 before season 1 lol
i know thats dumb but anyways its not adding up!which seasons doesnt itunes have?and also when will itunes actually gets the seasons?
is it upto itunes to put it or the studio?like i said ive watched season 2 "'vengance" and i saw mira who is played by katrina law & spartacus who is played by liam mclntyre(.i havent watched the entire season 1) i havent had the time to watch season 1 but from the episodes i saw,i dont see mira (katrina law) or (liam mclntyre)..i wanted to see how there relationship came about!am i missing something here?how many seasons are there?
sorry if my post dont make sense but im typing fast as i could and hitting the wrong buttons and trying to correct it

Hi, its Sep 2013, and I just purchased Spartacus Season 3 'War of the Damned' on iTunes ($25.99) to watch on my Apple TV in 1080i on my LG 55" LED screen. I wish is was in 3D, because my TV is 3D capable and it works great on 3D movies like Avitar and John Carter. My questions are:
1.) How long is the Season Pass good for? In other words, is it the same thing as purchasing the DVDs, except that you need to be connected to iTunes to play it? I would like to know if I can watch the series over and over for the next 10 years, if I want to, or whether there is an expiration date, like a rental? And if so, how long? I hope it doesn't expire in 6 months, like the rumors have said.
2.) How many of the episodes in the series are available as of Sep 2013?
3.) Where are the Season Passes stored, when they are downloaded? I purchased the Season Pass on my Apple TV, but I don't think it has a hard drive. I heard that is only has an 8GB volatile storage, like RAM, for aiding in streaming from the Internet. Does each episode download to the volatile memory and then disappear after watching it? I know that I will find out soon, because I'm about to watch my first season pass episode amd then continue on to subsequent episodes and I'll see if I can go back and rewatch the previously watched episodes.
4.) My next question involves watching the season pass on my iTouch (4G). I'm sure that I can download the episodes to watch there too; My question is how long can I watch them on my iTouch? I have purchased movies before and they are still available to watch any time on my iTouch, over and over. What I am wondering is what happens when my iTouch 32GB drive fills up and I need to make more room. Will I lose my purchased movies? I suppose that if I purchased iMatch, they might always be available in the cloud, if I continue paying annually, but I don't want to do that.
After purchasing Season 3 of Spartacus with my Apple TV, the first episode immediatly started downloading and a message said "Movie will be available to watch in an hour". By the way, I have a 3 Mbps DSL download connection. I clicked on episode 2, and it appeared to start downloading too. I then went back to episode 1, to make sure it was still downloading and it was. I think that if you start downloading a later episode, future episodes will download, not the earlier ones--assuming that you have already seen them.

I recently purchase a tv episode from the iTunes store, however, can not download to my IPOD Touch. Apparently, a format issue, any suggestions

I recently purchased a tv episode from the iTunes store. However, I can not get the tv episode downloaded to my IPOD Touch i.e. can not sync movie although music works fine. From what I read it is an issue with the format of the episode. The format is HD and apparently is too much for my IPOD touch. According to the documentation, the SD format for the episode should have been downloaded at the same time as the HD. I have the latest iOS for my IPOD Touch, 4.2.1 and latest for ITunes 10.5.3.3. I am using my PC with Windows 7. I can not download directly to the IPOD Touch since access to the clous is required i.e. iOS 4.3 or higher. Any suggestions?

My suggestion is for you to do the downloads overnight.

The iTunes listings for the TV show The Wire are wrong! How do I tell them, and get my correct episode?

I went to the iTunes store and looked up the hit TV show The Wire. Doing so gives me alist of all 50 episodes, starting with episode 1 which it calls "The Wire". Makes sense since most TV shows start off with an episode called pilot or shares the main title of the show, but in reality the show it lists as Episode 2 "The Target" is actually Episode 1. The episode called the Wire is actually episode 6. Instead of viewing all episodes together I went into just Season1 where each episode seems to be listed in correct order, etc.

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.

I have multiple episodes of the same show that I want to put in season specific folders

How do I create Folders in iTunes that will show up on my AppleTV, ie. Season 1, Season 2, etc??
I have all my episodes saved in a Torrents file in my Windows 7 PC, then I click and drag them to the iTunes Folder.
I tried to put all the Season 1 episodes into a Folder in Windows 7 on my PC, and hoped that would show up on the AppleTV, but instead they were not recognized at all and couldn't access them to watch them on the TV. So, I put them back to individual episodes and they are available again. But I would really prefer to not have to scroll through the entire file library to find an episode. I want to organize them by making Folders/Headings for the Seasons of each different show.
Can I create the Folders in the Torrents file, then click and drag them to iTunes?

It never ceases to amaze me how questions on the forum are like buses, none for an hour then three come along. Not your fault but this was asked just a couple of days ago.
When your developers issue a new version you need to save a copy of the source, we just zip it up. Then you carry on editing for the next version and zip that up and go again.
Then when a change is required to an older version, you dig it up, amend it and zip it again.
Not sure how it works with source control. The above is easier and reliable, assuming you manage it tightly.
