TV Show Video sorting on iPad

Hi,
When importing video as TV Shows from my iTunes onto my iPad. The video shows in iTunes as being sorted by TV Show then season. But for some reason on my iPad it gets sorted by season only.
So for example:
If I have Season 1 - Episode 1 of Dexter then Season 1 - Episode 1 of Lost
All appears fine in iTunes, but on my iPad.
There is the title art for Dexter then season 1 underneath, but in there is also the episode for Lost.
Any ideas on how to fix this or what to change in the metdata to avoid this issue.
As it seems to work with purchased videos from the iTunes store but ones imported from my computer have this problem.

You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.

Video sorting on ipad IOS7?

Is there a way to trigger sorting of videos in ios7 on the latest iPad?
It was working fine on IOS6, but as soon as I updated, the TV shows just sort by episode title, not by episode number.
I have the tracks numbered correctly on the Info tab and the episode IDs and Numbers on the Video tab in iTunes, but once they get copied over to the iPad, they just sort by episode title.
When I connect to my shared iTunes library, everything is sorted correctly by episode number. This issue is only for video files copied onto the iPad.

anyone

I just rented a video on my iPad, but it's not showing up under rented videos. Where do I go?

I just rented a video on my iPad and it's not showing up under rented videos. I have rented videos before. But don't know what to do. Help.

It should be in the Videos app
If not, are your age restrictions set up in the Settings >> General >> .......?
If your restrictions are turned on and you rented a PG18 rated movie or something, it won't show by design.

Missing sound when showing videos from iPad to Apple TV.

When showing YouTube videos from my ipad on apple tv, there is no sound from tv or iPad. What do I do?

Do other types of videos (e.g, streamed from your own Videos library on the iPad) work?

I am in The Netherlands on holiday visiting my family who are here. Can someone help? I only got the sports package before I left Australia so I could keep track of Olympics while in NL. My wife who is in NL bought the origional iPad before I got here.

My first generation iPad stopped showing videos.

My first generation iPad stopped showing videos. The screen goes black when "Video" is selected. Worked fine until now. Tried restoring and restarting. several times.

1. Double-click the Home button to close all Inactive Apps in Task Bar
2. Hold the Apps in Task Bar down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close Apps
4. Tap center of screen to return to Home Screen
5. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider

No. The Videos app should work fine.

Will iOS 6 feature video playlists for IPAD

Ok - so iOS 5 music app on IPAD does not show video playlists - even though iOS5 app on IPOD Touch and IPHONE do show them. Will iOS 6 fix this? I need video playlists. I travel a lot for work and this keeps me going when i get back to the hotel room. Please don't suggest some 3rd party app.

Not only aren't playlists added to videos, they took away our ability to watch video playlists through the music app on iPhone. I wonder what Apple has against a video playlists on its devices.
Since videos are no longer stored or viewed in the music app, a video playlist there would be sort of pointless now, wouldn't it.

I downloaded a movie from my iPad and it is not showing up on my iPad

You downloaded a movie from your iPad but it is not showing up on your iPad????
Did you look in the videos app for the movie?

Books not showing up on my iPad

I have books that my Mac's iBooks see which don't show up on my iPad.    If I uncheck "All books" in the iTunes "books" tab, I can scroll down and see the books, but then I check "All books" again (Sync Books is checked), and I don't see the books I'm looking for on my iPad.    iTunes says there are 318 books synced, and on my iPad, it takes a lot of scrolling to find books (Why can't there be an alphabetic short cut the way Contacts has?)
I do have some books that don't sort correctly - as in it getting confused about first and last name of an author (is that fixable by me?).    Maybe I'm just not finding the books.   Other book readers make it easier - or at least obvious - to find books.
My iPad's iBooks is set to show"All books", and doesn't hide iCloud books.
I just tested by telling my iTunes to sync all books to my phone.    A book I was looking for showed up there.    It still is missing from my pad.

i have had the same problem since upgrading to ios 8. it happened again today. connected ipad and opened itunes. itunes shows 5 books on ipad when i in reality i have over 1500 books on the ipad. the books on the ipad are there, i can read them with no problem. the only books that itunes will recognize are the purchased books. I have talked to apple numerous times and finally have had my case escalated to the engineering group. It seems to me the problem is this.....whatever the ipad sends to itunes to show what is on it is getting corrupted in this version of iOS....never had the first problem with iOS 7. i can't add new books because if i sync i will lose all of the books that are there now. have restored the ipad a bunch of times, connected it directly to my imac bypassing the usb hub, restored as a new ipad thinking the backup might be corrupted. the problem still exists and i think Apple needs to deal with it quickly because it does the same thing in Yosemite. Tried it on the beta version of Yosemite same deal.... No way i am upgrading to Yosemite at this point....will keep the forum informed of what Apple says...

How can I transfer video from an iPad managed with Configurator?

We are using Apple Configurator to supervise and manage iPads at our school. If an iPad is assigned to a user, how can we transfer the video from the iPad (either the Camera Roll or iMovie app) to a Computer so the video can be saved to the user's network folder and then played on the classroom SmartBoard. I do have a video adapter to connect the iPad to the Smartboard, but there will be times when we just want to save the video file in a user's folder. When I connect the iPad to the MacBook Pro which we use to run Configurator, the iPad does not show up in iTunes. If I 'check-in' the iPad, will it transfer the video, and if so how/where?
Thank you! (Configurator certainly solves some issues, but seems to raise so many more!)

Thank you. We use Dropbox as well and discovered how easy it is to sync the Camera Roll from the iPad to a Dropbox account.
I also found out that videos & pics can be transferred using iPhoto on the computer where the iPads are synced. I've tried both options and they both work well.
I'm all set!

How can I delete the list of watched videos on my iPad?

I have been watching videos on my ipad through the iTunes "home sharing" feature. It seems to work fine.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to delete the list (on the iPad) of videos that have been watched. Not only have I watched them but I have also deleted them from my iTunes movies list. I have tried syncing, signing out and back in to the iTunes store, turning off home sharing and then turning it back on again (which requires signing back in), all the while quitting out of the videos app and /or restarting the iPad before and after each of these steps.
The videos are shown as greyed-out icon/thumbnails in the iPad videos app. I am able to add new videos to iTunes, see them as not-greyed-out icons in the iPad app, and watch them. I just can't delete the shown list of the watched videos list on the iPad, which in the case of TV shows collect quite quickly and require lots of scrolling to get to the unwatched video icons.
Thanks for your help!
mug011

Yes, so...
I have also closed iTunes, reset network settings on the iPad, then shut down and restarted the iPad. Still, I end up with greyed out rectangular icons for all the movies I've ever streamed from my Mac Mini to my ipad via my home wireless router.
Again, I have watched all the way to the end of the movie, selcted the movie in iTunes and chosen "mark as watched", and then deleted it in ITunes.
Any ideas?

How do you get your iMac to show video (or mirroring) with Apple Tv...please help!

I have searched this forum, read the articles here and on Google and I still can't figure this out. Perhaps what I'm wanting isn't possible.
All I want to do is watch my CBS show from www.cbs.com on Apple Tv via my iMac. The Apple TV moniker is next to the volume in iTunes, and I can play music through Apple Tv via I-tunes and have it play on my TV. Thus, I know it is connected and working. I thought I could do a mirror screen like I do with the iPad, but for the life of me I can't find anyone who has covered the subject online.
Can someone tell me, step-by-step, how to show video from my iMac onto my Apple TV. Thanks so much!
Confused in the Lou

If the specs you included about your iMac model are correct, it will not support AirPlay mirroring. See About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X - Apple Support for more about this, including the list of supported models & required OS X versions.
