TV shows. Seasons not grouping together?

Hi guys!, have this really annoying problem, i have recorded all the episodes of "My Name Is Eeal", and marked them as TV Shows. But when they are in the TV Shows section, there are not all grouping together properly. The hole first season is fine, but season 3 & 4 are split op into to sections?
One with 3, and one with 13. The one with 13, are missing the episodes of the one with 3 in it:S
There all grouped the same, for eksample -S04E02/"Monkeys Take A Bath"/My Name Is Earl/Season 4/
So why arent they grouping together?
Se pic´s below.

I don't have any tv shows but with music it is easy to have a space or a zero instead of the letter "O" which will make iTunes think your 3 tracks are a different season. Get info on a track and copy "Season 4" from one of the main group onto the "Season 4" of the grouping and see if it gets it back together again. I have even seen things that seemed identical but perhaps there was some subtle font difference and this pasting trick resolved the problem.

Episodes from the same TV show are not grouped together

Hello,
I've a cousin from the states staying with me who has no forum membership so this question is from her.
When viewing the iTunes TV Library on her MacBook, episodes from the same TV show [Journeyman] are not grouped together under the same album art even though the info on them is exactly the same except for the episode title.
While I'm here, will the Irish store ever get TV?
Any ideas.
Thanks.

Have they already completed download? If not, let them finish and then see if they are, in fact, the same episode. You may also want to check your purchase history to make sure the episode was not accidentally purchase twice:

=) If they are the same episode, and you were not charged twice, you should feel free to delete the item.

JPG and RAW files are not grouped together.

I am finding that my RAW and JPG files are not grouped together. They show up on the Grid View as JPG for the JPG file and RAW + JPG for the NEF(RAW) file. This does not seem to be consistent through out the folder. Some of the pictures are grouped together and others are not. The ones that are not grouped together have been auto-stacked and then unstacked. I am not sure if this is what caused the seperation of JPG and RAW files. I did try to take a picture that I had auto-stacked it and then remove it and it did not sepearate. The "Treat JPG files next to raw files as seperate photos" option is turned off, like it is in my Lightroom 3.

This is what I'm talking about:
Show subfolders are on:
In windows Explorer:
In the Import Dialog:
Where are the files?
If I click on the Folder 2014_12_14... all the files from all folders will populate.

I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order.

I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order. The "Apply Sort Field" and "Same album does not work, but ti is only these two RCA albums that do this. All other albums remain intact. Need help with this minor problem. Thanks.

UPDATE: This behavior (to an extent) still happens when "Repeat Album" is off. Instead of an infinite loop, it goes through all the tracks on the album (unsuccessfully) and kicks me out to the Album overview screen. Going back to list of Albums and tapping the Album again brings up "No Content: You can download music from the iTunes Store" but that screen immediately kicks me back to list of Albums.
So I am just even more confused now.

Songs from same album not grouped together.

Hello,
I just received a new ipod nano (the new ones) as a gift and all though i love it i am having some troubles with Itunes 7,
the first problem is that iTunes does not group some songs from the same album together, I made sure that all the album details are the same but still I tunes separates certain songs from the album, In case I am not clear here is a link to a screen shoot:
http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/188/ssngtud2.jpg
As you can see some songs from System of a downs album "Steal this album" are arranged as separate songs, how can I change this?
A second problem I have encountered is with compilation specifically with classical music, ITunes slashes the 10 track album into 10 separate songs, although I marked them all as a part of a compilation and set the preferences to display compilations, screen shots;
http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/2387/ndctt6.jpg
1. Is there any way ITunes can display these tracks together?
2. If I move this album to my IPod (after setting it to display compilations) will it show them together as one album?
Thanks for your help in advance

For your first problem, make absolutely certain that there are no hidden spaces at the end of the Artist or Album fields. Also check track number of and disk number of fields. Finally, and this may be most likely, make sure that you use the same Album Artist for each song (blank, or System of a Down).
For the second issue, make sure all songs on the album are marked as "Part of a Compilation", then sort your library as "Album by Artist" (you may need to click the Album header a few times to see that). The Compilations will then be bumped to the bottom of your library. On your iPod, turn Compilations ON to see similar grouping of compilations.

Songs from the same album not grouped together

Sometimes when I import songs from the same album, they do not show up grouped together. I will end up with several entries, with one or two songs each. Sometimes the correct album art is on each one, and sometimes not. How can I stop this from happening, and how can I correct it if it does?

Songs with the same album art not grouped together in iTunes for Windows

Brand new iTunes user here - do not yet have an iPod! (Needed some music only on iTunes)
When I first started up iTunes, it imported all of my music I already had on my computer. A few of them are soundtracks with different artists.
When they are shown in the iTunes library, the soundtracks have been broken up by Artist instead of staying as a whole album. How do I get the songs back together as one album? I found the folder on my computer where they are stored and combined them there, but they are still separate in the iTunes library.
Thanks from a total newbie!

Mark the tracks on the album as "Part of a compilation" and fill in the Album Artist field as "Various Artists". Click on the first track of your album to highlight it, hold down the shift key and click on the last track to highlight everything in between. Right click on the selection and choose Get Info. You'll get a message asking if you want to edit multiple items, say yes. If you are using iTunes 8 in the box that opens go to the Options tab and change "part of a compilation" to Yes and choose OK.
Also in your library click on the title bar of album column to bring all the tracks in the same album together. If you keep clicking in the title you can choose it to sort by Album, Album by Artist or Album by Year. Clicking on the little triangle on the right side of the column header changes the sort direction. Pointing up and the column is sorted in Ascending order (A to Z). Pointing down and the column is sorted in Descending order (Z to A).

Album Not Grouped Together

I imported a new CD into itunes - and it seems that it is treating each song as its own album (this is apparent because when I view by album, each song is it's own album).
How do I tell itunes that it's all one album? I've never had this problem before.
Thanks in advance!

Check out the get info and make sure the album name is all the same. If the ID tags came from Gracenote CDDB, there's a good chance it was wrong.

Downloaded purchases not grouped together

I recently advance-purchased Diana Krall's new CD. As part of the purchase, "Walk on By" was downloaded as a single (track 1). Today, when the rest of the album downloaded, it was missing track 5. As it turns out, "Walk on By" is track 5 on the CD. It's in my library as a single though, in a separate folder. How do I get this song into the CD's folder as track 5 - where it should be.

The fun continues.
I went from email support for the iTunes support, to phone support, who then sent me back to email iTunes support.
This time around, at their suggestion I completely removed all Apple Software (iTunes, QT, Mobile, Updater and even Safari). Rebooted, then reinstalled the latest 7.4.3.
When I pressed Check for Purchases, 86 tracks were waiting. Once again, they all downloaded with 29 ending up in Limbo (F:\iTunes\Downloads). For the mtimes on the *.tmp directories in Downloads, it appears this was the last 29 files downloaded. The iTunes store thinks all of these downloads are complete.
So removing a *.tmp and trying Check for Purchases doesn't get the job done.
Apple support's response, call the phone numbers.
Deja Vu all over again ;((((

Compilation not grouping

I just downloaded a compilation album from the iTunes store and it is not grouping together, I have gone into the info and checked that it is a compilation (yes is marked in the drop down menu) under the preferences I have checked group compilations together and still 2 songs are not grouping with the rest of the album.
The only difference in these two songs from the others is that they are live.
What else can I do to get them to group together? (I realize that if I were to change the artist they would group but I like knowing who is singing what song)
Any suggestions?

Sometimes there can be empty spaces hiding in the tags. I would select them all and retype the album name in Get Info. (Do them all at once.)

Why do episodes of a TV show season appear separately rather than grouped together?

I have a 64GB iPad3 and downloaded the first season of Avatar: the Last Airbender from the iTunes store app on the iPad. After downloading, I went to the video app and saw that each episode was listed by itself rather than grouped together as a season.
Is there a way to fix this? It is very frustrating because I like the feature of the video app that lets you watch episodes one right after the other.
Thanks in advance!

The same thing happens on the iPhone. Apple changed this close to two years ago and I too don't like it. I have 160 music videos, Apple used to goup them by band if there were more than three videos by that band but now they are all listed individually like TV shows do.

TV Shows not grouping

I have 2 seasons of a TV Show - one I bought off the iTMS and the other I ripped from the DVD myself. Now, in iTunes, they are showing ungrouped (ie: season 1 is 1 group and season 2 is another.) I am trying to get them to group together as 1 show under 1 coverflow artwork, but cannot. I've edited the info in the Info, Video and Sorting tabs to be almost identical aside from Episode name/season # to no avail. I seem to be having the opposite problem that people usually have in this regard. Does anyone have any ideas?

I don't have any tv shows but with music it is easy to have a space or a zero instead of the letter "O" which will make iTunes think your 3 tracks are a different season. Get info on a track and copy "Season 4" from one of the main group onto the "Season 4" of the grouping and see if it gets it back together again. I have even seen things that seemed identical but perhaps there was some subtle font difference and this pasting trick resolved the problem.

TV shows with same series number grouped together

I have 2 differnet TV Shows saved in iTunes, Walking Dead Season 1 & 2 and Person of Interest Season 1. Now in iTunes everything is as it should be, they are shown as different shows and the seasons are listed properly. When I sync up my ipad with these shows for some reason its combining season 1 of Walking Dead with Season1 of Person of Interest and Walkind Dead Season 2 on its own. For some reason it sees "Season 1" on each of these programs and thinks they belong together. I've check all the options in "Get Info" and I cant see anything that would make them group together. Has anyone else came across this, is there a fix?

Possibly, found the workaround here:

I will test tonight and update thread as answered if this works.

Why do tv shows sort by season not the show then season 1,2,3 ect

Why do tv shows sort by season not the show then season 1,2,3 ect

I was able to get everything in one spot on the iPad....I went into Get Info and made Artist, Album Artist, Album, Grouping, Show, Sort Artist, Sort Album Artist, Sort Album and Sort Show the name of the show. Sure that was overkill....but one of those helped!
Now a few of my shows that were out of wack say "Season X" under the box art. How do I get rid of that?

ITunes TV show Season Pass is NOT downloading newly available episodes

Problem: iTunes TV show Season Pass is NOT downloading newly available episodes even though new content is fully available on iTunes Store for purchase as single episodes
I purchased Season 4 of The Vampire Diaries on Thursday 10/11. The 1st episode, called "Growing Pains," aired on the evening of Thursday 10/11 and has been available since approx. 2 am EST Friday 10/12 for purchase/download on the iTunes Store, but it is NOT automatically downloading to my iTunes account even though I repeatedly click "Check for Available Downloads." The button to purchase the single episode in the iTunes Store is activated, meaning anyone can purchase that individual episode for $2.99, but I paid for the whole Season Pass and I can't retrieve this single episode.
My iTunes is NOT recognizing that there is an Episode 1 available for download. I rebooted my Mac, restarted iTunes, logged into the iTunes store to click on "Purchased" content and try to force a download, all to no avail -- the screen listing the episodes available for download under my Purchased account fails to list Episode 1 of this TV show. It as though this Episode is invisible to my iTunes account/download queue. Yet, Episode 1 is sitting on the iTunes Store server and has been there for the past day.
I have clearly identified this problem to Apple Customer Service and they did not seem to intially understand my problem. They told me that it takes a few days for TV networks to make an episode available to the iTunes store, and therefore I should wait for a few days -- this totally misses the issue! The premiere episode has already been provided by the TV network to iTunes, and is available now on the iTunes Store. The problem is a technological server-side one, where for some reason my iTunes download queue is not picking up on the fact that there is new, pre-paid content available for download.
Please help if you experienced similar issues with your Season Pass. I bought a Season Pass for last year and it worked without any problems -- all episodes aired on Thursday nights and were downloaded by 2 or 3 am Friday morning. I am thinking of cancelling/refunding the Season Pass, and just paying for Hulu+ instead of waiting around hoping for Customer Service to finally read my email and DO something instead of telling me to "wait a few days."
Below is my email thread with Customer Service. I can't believe there is no longer phone support to talk to a live person, who should be able to reset my download queue -- or do something on the server-side -- easily.
*Just a girl, in front of the TV after she cut off cable, waiting for her favorite show that she paid for to download.

Thanks. The problem is, this Episode "Growing Pains" IS already available

am EST last night. The issue isn't its availability from the TV network --
it's the Season Pass queue for downloads not recognizing that this episode

Hi,
I'm having the same problem on Windows and Mac, neither automatically download episodes from any of my season passes, nor do they find it when I select "Check for available downloads," it informs me all episodes have been downloaded for my Apple ID, which in fact they have not.
I have to find the episode in my Library(which shows all available episodes on my computer and in the iTunes Store) and from there I have to manually click to download. I tried deauthorizing all my computers and reauthorizing just one computer, and that didn't work either. I also deleted my other device(iPad) from the "iTunes in the Cloud" just in case there was some issue associated with that, and that didn't work either.
It’s sad that the iTunes rep didn't really "listen" to what you said. I find this happens at many other companies too. They often are trying to fit your problem into some prepared script or solution, or they are distracted or in a hurry and don't actually read or listen fully to an even well defined account of the problem.
Best of luck to us all! Hope they fixed it soon.
