Videos App and Homesharing

I am in the process of adding my video media (currently TV Shows, next Movies) to iTunes to allow for viewing on my iPads and AppleTVs.  I am having odd results in the Videos app on the iPads (and iPhones for that matter).
When entering the Videos app and selecting my shared iTunes library, the TV Shows are all jumbled (not alphabetized, misplaced artwork, even sometimes showing artwork from audio files).
The only way I've found to solve this is to go into Settings, then Vidoes, and sign out then back into my iTunes account.
Everything looks fine on the AppleTVs.
I am adding a lot of new videos currently, and am hoping that's what's causing this.  But is this a common issue?  And, is there any other app that can be used to play via homesharing?
Thanks, John

  • Trying to get my air video app and my airport extreme router to work.

    Hi there. I am getting really frustrated and desperate. I just purchased the app "air video" on my iPad. Installed the software on my mac. Works awesome when I'm on MY WIRELESS NETWORK. I didn't think it would be an issue once I left the house and tried to go on someone else's network to connect, but it just won't work. It keeps giving me the error "host not reachable". I tried opening up the air video troubleshooting info and tried everything but nothing seems to work. I tried under the "remote" tab in the air video server preferences. I clicked both "enable access from Internet" and the "auto map port" options. In the box below I just see the word status and the spinning wheel along with "looking for UPnP or NAT-PMP compatible devices" but the wheel has been spinning for about 15 mins. It doesnt appear to be finding anything.
    I've also clicked off the "auto map port" to see if that would do anything. I got the pin and tried that. Still nothing. I tried to look for some information on port forwarding for my airport extreme but everything I'm googleing seems to be years out of date.
    I am currently on Mac snow leopard 10.6.3 I believe. Everything is latest version. Using comcast modem with apple airport extreme router. Latest version of Air video app and software. On iOS 4.3.1.
    Anyone that can try to help me out, I would be eternally grateful.
    Thank you so much

    Your downloaded movie should be in the library tab of the Amazon instant video app.

  • Cannot go to iTunes store using my iPhone 6 plus. I click on App Store and it opens up iTunes U. Even when I open iPhones video app and try to purchase a movie which is suppose to take me to iTunes store, it instead opens up iTunes U.

    There isn't currently any music, films or TV programmes available in the South Korean store, so you will only see iTunes U in the iTunes store app. You can't use the US store unless you are in the US, you have to be in a country to use its store (that is in the Store's terms) - so whilst you are in South Korea you can only use the South Korean store.
    Are there other music purchase download sites in South Korea that you could use ? You can also copy your CDs via your computer's iTunes

  • My MacBook Air tells me I'm out of memory.  to my knowledge I use only 65 GB for documents, photos, videos, apps, and it tells me that 75 GB is taken by "other"  What is in other, and how can I fix it?

    my MacBook Air tells me I'm out of memory.  to my knowledge I use only 65 GB for documents, photos, videos, apps, and it tells me that 75 GB is taken by "other"  What is in other, and how can I fix it?

    For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
              iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • Can't sync music, videos, apps with homeshare?

    We have a simple PC computer. My father has the IPhone 3g, I recently got the IPhone 4 for my birthday in august. Both my mom and my sister has the IPod touch (3rd and 4th generation i think). And whenever I try to put a new song or movie or a app from the main computer, it will not sync to my phone due to homeshare. Itunes says that I have to "deauthorize" my account in order to put a new song/video/etc on my phone due to having 5 computers on homeshare. But the thing is we're confused because My father and I don't think we have 5 computers on homeshare. If I try to authorize my phone to a different computer, it erases all my apps and my songs on my phone. My father is thinking about deauthorizing one of the accounts on our computers, but he is afraid that all of our music, apps, videos, etc in our libary would be erased. Does other people have this kind of problem or a solution towards this problem?

    Hi Jim,
    Yes, I guess that's the only option I have. That or manage the music without Match. What I on Earth can't understand is that I'm not able to sync the videos manually, as long as Match is turned on. It seems a tad too locked up in my opinion…
    Cheers,
    Massimo

  • Remote app and homesharing

    Hello,
    There's something odd about the remote app for the iPhone in combination with my homesharing playlists. If a song is playing (by playing it on my macbook) it will let me see the song, pause it, and even play the next or previous song, but it won't show me the playlists.
    Why is this? It looks like it's only half working. Or perheps it will be in the next remote app update?

    Unfortunately, I think you'll need an new remote.

  • Updated mess!  I updated my I4s to ios 7.0.2 and it deleted all my videos, apps and songs!  Tried to get them back but said I had to buy them all!  UGH!  I tried to reinstall but says it is up to date!  Please help!

    I updated my Iphone 4s to the IOS 7.0.2 and i have having a lot of trouble.  My apps are not found, neither is my music or videos.  When I tried to reload the purchased there was NOTHING there!  I need help!  I did try to reupdate and it said that the software was up to date

    If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

  • I downloaded a movie and it said i do not have enough storage on my ipod. i went to the videos app and played the video and it buffered so i watched it. after it was done, the time expired because i rented the movie. It is still taking up memory. Why?

    In the downloads section there is an error that there is still not enough space to get the movie. It is taking up half of my space and there is no abort download. Help!

    Movies are not one of the items you can reload via iClould like apps, music, and some other items.  You can contact iTunes and request a redownload,.  They may give you one.

    Some of those are part of the backup, for example photos, app data and settings and much more:

    If you still have the backup from the time before you updated, use it to restore from.
    Download the apps again for free before you start, apps are not part of the backup data made by iTunes.

    Those apps should also be part of your iTunes library on the computer you usually sync to.

  • I have rentals that will not go away on my ipad in the videos app, and different ones on my computer "on this ipad" list

    This is on my ipad, they are both expired
    and this is on my computer... i rented this last year.

    When the app is downloaded it will expand as all app downloads do. You are downloading a "compressed installer" in a manner of speaking. When the app expands it will be larger than the space that you have left on the device.
    App downloads on a computer work the same way,

  • Video apps and more

    I know there are on going issues about working with video shot on the phone but can some one point me to apps to edit videos (the trim option is not very user friendly imho) it won't make cuts in the middle, at least my experience, or am I wrong?
    Also what's the use in being able to record so many hours if we can't get the video out, it's hard enough trying to email a 40 second clip, what's the key to transfering a large video to pc (in my case) or mac?
