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.

  • Some photos are not sorted correctly by date

    I just imported some photos from my friends camera who were on the same trip. However, I noticed that a couple (not all) of his photos are not sorted correctly by date in the Event. A photo from day 3 somehow comes before the photos from day 2. I checked the extended information and the dates on the photo are correct. Has anyone had this problem and know of a solution? Thanks.

    It might be of some help to delete the photo cache. Please see this link - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • WHEN YOU PURCHASE RV SHOWS FROM ITUNES ARE YOU ABLE TO PUT IT ON A DVD AND WATCH ON A REAL TV?

    When you purchase a TV show from itunes are you able to put it on a DVD to watch on a real TV?

    Sorry, but no, you can't. The content owners won't allow Apple to allow that feature. You can back up your videos, but you cannot convert them to any other format. If you want play video/movie content purchased from the iTunes Store on your TV, you'll need to connect your computer to your TV or use an iOS device or iPod (one with video out) or an Apple TV.
    Regards.

  • Some of my songs on itunes are not playing correctly...

    i moved all my music files to my external hardrive, and they were working just fine. but for the last month, some random songs are not playing correctly!! they sound like how a scratched cd sounds (skipping, etc..., and then it just stops and it skips to the next song). the songs were playing perfectly before, it was all of a sudden, and not all, just some of them.)Also, the same songs that are not playing can not be transfered to my ipod... (tear)

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

  • Smart playlist not sorted correctly on ipod

    I have a smart playlist in my iTunes 10.0, which contains all podcasts (with play count 0), sorted by release date.
    Unfortunately, this playlist is NOT sorted correctly on my ipod (nano, 5th generation). After syncing with itunes, the ipod playlist has some apparently random order (not by release date, not even by name, artist or anything, it really seems random).
    It's strange that, if I click on my ipod under "DEVICES" in itunes and click the playlist there, the correct order is shown (by release date). But again, on the ipod it is actually not sorted.

    I have a smart playlist for my podcast's and I normally sort them by the date added (oldest to newest) or by release date. No mater what I do now they only show up on my iPhone in date added order newest to oldest and I am unable to re-order them. I have a number of other playlists that work fine it is just this one smart playlist that is acting up. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • IpodMini Shows Up on Itunes but says songs from itunes are not right format

    I have a 2nd generation ipod mini and everytime i plug it into the computer itunes either freezes or shows up and when i try to put purchased music from itunes onto the ipod it says the ipod does not support this type of file. is this my ipod or itunes problem?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all books and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    I have not heard of that problem before with books, only music.

  • ITunes is not sorting correct

    I have downloaded a mix of 2cd's of Pacha Summer Anthems(Mixed by Chuckie & Mischa Daniels).
    Both cd's are mixes, when I upload these cd's to iTunes I cannot let iTunes sort them correctly. It doesn't sort by track, so the mix is not played correctly.
    When I upload the cd's to my iPod, the sorting is oke.
    Anyone a idea how to solve this?

    Hi
    First try and activate the 'album' column with the arrow pointing up:
    http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/3838/sortingbyalbum.jpg
    Or try and activate the track order column:
    http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/9404/sortingbytrackorder.jpg
    You can also try and edit the Sorting options in:
    select all songs of album > Right-click > Get Info > Sorting

  • Downloads from iTunes are not going into my library

    When I download songs and podcasts from iTunes on my iPhone they seem to download fine but they do not go into my library. Any ideas? All software is up to date.

    I am using the same account. It happened once before and all I did was connect it to iTunes and it seemed to sort itself. I tried connecting it again but it doesn't seem to have worked this time. My purchases went into my library before when I purchased from the store on my iphone and I haven't changed any settings that would stop this. When I say my library, I mean the songs and podcasts don't appear on my iPhone when I purchase from it.
    Thanks for your help though.

  • My podcasts on itunes are not ordered correctly ... how to fix?

    As you can see in the screenshot above, my uploaded podcasts are not appearing in the order they were uploaded/released but in a seemingly random order ... how can I get the iTunes store to sort them based on release date so that the most recently released episode (#4) appears as #4 instead of #2?
    in advance, thanks!

  • Tv shows from itunes store not copying to ipod

    i bought tv shows from the itunes store a while back, they have been on my 5th gen. ipod (30gig) since. i updated my ipod yesterday, went to use it and found that about 4 of 5 of them were missing. i tried to manually copy them to th ipod, but itunes wouldnt let me. i am running itunes 7 & have the second to latest ipod software. if anyone has a similar problem or can solve my issue please let me know immediately.

    ok, so i figured this out... when i connect my ipod and go to the "tv shows tab" i had the option to sync only the "unwatched episodes" checked. so the shows that i watched on my computer would not download to my iPod. If you select "all" instead of "unwatched" then all of the tv shows regardless if you have watched them or not, will begin to download... Thanks for the help everybody

  • TV Shows from iTunes Store not syncing to iPad

    Hi Guys,
    I am having problems syncing my TV Shows from my iTunes.
    The issue arrose when I purchased a TV Show series on my iPad on the iTunes Store. I downloaded the new show directly to the iPad over wireless but what happened was the new episodes replaced all my other TV shows except two. ie I had mulitple copies of the same TV series where my other shows use to be. I tried syncing it to my iTunes on my MacBook Pro but it didn't fix it. Then I decided to wipe the iPad and set it up as a new one. When I did that the same thing happened again.  My iTunes seems all normal.
    Any ideas?

  • ITunes are not transfering to my iPod

    I have recently downloaded songs in itunes and have tried to transfer them to my iPod, but they are not registering. I have plenty of memory left, so I know that is not it. Is there another reason why these songs will not show up on my iPod, but are on my iTunes? I have given authority and there seems to be no other reason. Can you help? Sorry if this question has already been asked.

    Hi. Welcome to Apple Discussions Forum!
    Check if those songs are unchecked. To do so, see the box before the track name.
    Hope this helps!
