  • Shared TV shows not sorting properly on iPad (iOS 4.3)

    Anybody else having problems getting TV shows to display properly on the iPad when accessed via Home Sharing? I've noticed two problems in trying to do so:
    1. The iPad is sorting by artist name instead of show title (my 3G iPod touch does the same thing).
    2. A handful shows are overwhelming (for lack of a better word) others, such that instead of seeing listings for 12 shows, I see 6 listings apiece for 2 shows. This problem seems to be linked to shows with a series name in the form "X-[something]", such as the X-Files. So far I've been unable to fix this, although messing with the "sort artist" field has shown some promise.
    Anyone else experiencing this, or have solutions that fall short of removing whatever shows are causing the problem from my library?

    Michael,
    The one field that I did not have to alter for any episode whatsoever was the "Episode ID" field.
    I left them as they were. 
    My episodes were showing up in the proper sorting order, but not showing up together.
    For example Once Upon a Time Season 2 would show up twice on my iPad.
    Some of the shows in one icon, the other shows in the other icon.
    Both named the same with the same icon image.
    I painstakingly viewed the Summary, Info, Video and Sorting fields of all the problem TV Series episodes and of the one TV Series (Once Upon a Time Season 1) that viewed correctly in Home Sharing.
    The fields that had no data or different data were the fields I mentioned above:
    Album
    Sort Name
    Sort Artist
    Sort album
    Things like the Sort Name (Evil Queen) would be different from the Name (The Evil Queen).
    Or Sort Name would have no entry at all.
    Album would contain data, Sort Album would contain no data or different data.
    I made sure that the fields on the right contained data identical to the fields on the left.
    This is how the data is on the one TV series that showed up correctly in Home Sharing, so I figured it had to work.
    I turned Home Sharing off on all devices and computer.
    Quit iTunes. Relaunched. Activated Home Sharing on the computer, then on my devices.
    Now the TV Series' that I own shown up correctly in Home Sharing.

  • Videos labeled "TV Show" not showing up.

    This might be an old problem, but when I use tv shows copied from DVDs and choose the video kind "TV Show" the file doesn't show up on my iPod. Is there a way to fix this, or can only purchased shows be listed under TV Shows? Thanks ahead of time.

    Somebody else asked this question recently, and the "solved" response was that only TV Shows purchased on iTunes will automatically show up in the TV Shows group in iTunes and on the iPod.
    I've converted many TV shows from DVD and this seems to be true. Changing 'kind' to TV Show puts them in the right place in iTunes, but not on the iPod. To get them categorized on the iPod, I had to create a playlist of my TV shows. I entered 'TV Show' in the Grouping field for each one, then created a playlist where 'Grouping contains TV Show'. This playlist was added to my iPod the next time I synched, but to access it I have to go through Menu - Videos - Video Playlists - TV Shows.
    Note: My iPod doesn't have the category 'TV Shows' on the Videos menu at all, and this didn't change after I'd set 'Kind' to TV Show in iTunes; maybe that category only gets added if you buy TV shows from iTunes. By default, all videos NOT purchased from iTunes seem to get added to the 'Movies' category both in iTunes and on the iPod. Simply entering an Artist name for each music video (after setting 'Kind' to Music Video) will get them in the Music Videos category in both places, but I've had to work with custom playlists for everything else (i.e., TV shows, home movies).

  • Music from shared library will not display by artist or album.

    How do I set up home sharing to display music from shared library by artist and album?

    I am not sure if the fix that cuatro476804 suggested is the issue here.  I have also been experiencing freezing issues with my Apple TV since the latest Apple TV/iTunes updates.  Here is the bug report I just submitted to Apple:
    Since the last update to Apple TV or the last updates to iTunes (not sure which is the culprit) Apple TV freezes when trying to play music streamed from iTunes on a Mac.
    I have an iMac running iTunes [11.01 (12)] and a 3rd gen Apple TV running the latest OS release as of 12-20-2012.  Since the last software update for iTunes and Apple TV, the Apple TV will freeze when playing a song after about 10 - 20 seconds.  This happens whether I am using my computer directly or when using the "remote" app on my iPhone 5.  I can restart my song again by pressing play, but the song will freeze again after another 10 - 20 seconds.
    I can temporarily cure the bug by unplugging my Apple TV for 5 seconds to cold start the gizmo, and then both iTunes and Remote seem to be able to stream without any issues.
    but when I try to play music the next day, the same freezing issue occurs again like clockwork.
    I thought this was just a rare buggy issue, maybe even a WiFi or other communication problem, but I have been playing tunes on my Apple TV for a couple years streamed from my iMac with not problems.  This only started happening after the last software update.  Again, not sure if this is the Apple TV update, or the iTunes 10.01 (12) update causing this.
    Daily rebooting of the Apple TV is not an acceptable solution.  Were this a Microsoft product, sure, but Apple product... its just supposed to work :-)
    I hope others will report the same issue so this gets repaired soon.

  • Home sharing, more tab not displaying? iOS8

    Hi everyone, I am trying to share from iTunes 11 on my mac running 10.9.5 to my iPad3 running iOS8. I have turned on home sharing on Mac and Sharing was already on on my iPad. When I launch the Music app, the only buttons I have at the bottom of the app are Playlist, Artists, Songs, Albums, Genre, Compilations and composers. How do I view the more tab to then access the Mac iTunes library which is being shared.?
    Thanks

  • TS3999 Shared Work calendar not displaying old events

    My wife shared all of her calandars with me, we are both on Iphones. I am unable to see events on her "Work" Calendar that were created before she shared it. New events that she creates show up. I need to be able to see all of the older events.

    It's a problem on Apple's side that's been going on for a couple of days not.  If you look at some of the other topic below you'll see that others are having the same problem.  All we can do is wait for Apple to fix their servers. 
    If you want you can send a report Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html

  • Audio & video for TV show not synced

    When I started watching my recently downloaded episode of Dresden Files, the audio was matched fine with the video. Then, about half way through the show the audio started going several seconds ahead of the video. I tried quitting out of the video and iTunes entirely, but it was the same. The beginning was fine and the rest wasn't matched up. Is this my computer or the actual episode. I didn't want to download the episode again incase there might have been a glitch there. Anyone know how to fix this?? Thanks!

    yeah it jumped at 10.19 mins, then it wouldn't sync. I thought it was my download too. So I did as you did and restarted iTunes etc.
    Contacted iTMS also. Hopefully they'll replace the episode. It's a great show, but It's really annoying when the lips don't sync to the audio.

  • I'm trying to play an .mp4 video, but it does not display smoothly; image is jumpy.  The sound is fine, but the image starts and stops.  When I play the same file in WMV, displays just fine.

    Any suggestions on what I can try to clear this up?  Videos that I have downloaded through iTunes work just fine.  I don't know how to troubleshoot this file to see what is causing the issue.

    Ok then tell me this what is that DVD your having problem watching then? And what Region Code are you from like Euro is Region 2 and so on??? Could be the Region problem on the DVD doesn't match your drive Region as well?

  • Itunes bought movies/tv shows not displaying in my authorized mac mini

    I have a Mac mini (mid 2011) 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7 running OSX 10.9.4 working as a media server, it has been authorized to run all the media I buy from my iTunes account. It is connected to a SHARP TV monitor through the HDMI port and had wired (Gigabite LAN) to several Apple TV around my house.
    Problem is that I cannot watch the movies/TV shows I have bought in the iTunes store, music and home videos play perfectly in this computer +monitor.
    The same movies/TV shows I can play through my several Apple TVs without a glitch. Does anyone have any idea regarding this?

    You may need to verify that the cable in use and the TV both support HDCP.

  • Calendars not displaying correctly.

    My shared calendar is not displaying at least one user's information, it may be two users but that user has not created an event to show up on my calendar. 
    This user is clearly in the group and I have added the groups calendar to display. I have not had a chance to look at the user's calendar settings to investigate but I'm pretty sure they are default like all of the other users.
    Does anyone have any idea of what's going on?

    You need to verify that the calendar permissions are correct for you to see appointments and that the appointments aren't marked private.

  • Video tutorial for removing entire display assembly with the apple logo on white Macbook?

    Hi, my Macbook has a bad display screen and I've been using it hooked to an external monitor for a while. I would like to swap out the display from another parts Macbook. I searched Google and all the videos I saw shows the display assembly already removed and the LCD panel within the assembly being replaced. I need to change the whole assembly though as there is a crack in the plastic near the apple logo. Anyone know of any video tutorials to do this like on Youtube or somewhere else? Thanks
