Why are Itunes TV shows in MONO??

Itunes downloads: "Desperate Housewives" and "Battlestar Galactica", all episodes seem to be encoded in mono. Why the heck is that?

First confirm you've set up AppleTV to sync not to stream - right click on AppleTv in iTunes and if it says Turn off syncing as one of the options you're set to sync (1 computer only can sync the rest stream).
Next, has anything at all synced?
In the AppleTv 'device' tabs in iTunes are you set to automatically sync or custom sync? Automatic sync may not transfer watched items, but if that's all you've got I'd expect it to transfer something.
Are you logged in to itujnes with the username set up for the purchases, and is this also set up for AppleTV, as well as teh correct country for the store you bought from?
Is AppleTv seeing the internet? Can you watch film/TV trailers from iTunes store? If so AppleTv is seeing the internet, if not it may not be able to authorise correctly to transfer movies?

  • I have 2 phones on my iTunes account, why are text messages showing on the second phone when sent from the first

    I have 2 phones on my iTunes account, why are text messages showing on the second phone when sent from the first phone?

    it's meant to work like that
    so if you receive a message on your iphone you also get it on your ipad or ipod touch
    to avoid it use separate appleID for each device
    or turn off imessage on 1 or both devices in their settings
    but that will not fix the issue that 2 devices using the same appleID will never be able to facetime eachother
    the appleID is a unique handle for 1 user only

  • Why are contacts not showing up after added

    why are contacts not showing up after added. Don't show up after they added when I want to select then for a new email

    I am replying to my post with the hopes that someone can please help me!
    I am adding new episodes, but they don't show up on the main page. The most recent one to show up is from 10/29/07. I added a new episode today, but it doesn't appear on the main page (before you subscribe). Is there a limit to the # of podcasts that can appear on the main page? Has anyone else had this problem? All the relevant info is above.
    Your help is much appreciated.

    Why are my contacts showing numbers and not names?

    When you added your contact details in the contact app did you fill in the fields correctly.  For example in contacts where it says "first" did you enter a number instead of a name?

  • Why are my iMessages showing on my brothers iPad?

    Why are all my iMessages that I send from my iPhone 4 to my boyfriends iPhone 4s showing on my brothers iPad? We do not share an apple ID! He can send a message from his iPad to my boyfriend and then it shows on both phones that I am the sender when I have not sent anything. WHAT IS HAPPENING? PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Hi Abbey
    Jon is correct, you have either signed into iCloud with the same ID on both devices or you have associated the same email address as an alias between them.  Sign out of iCloud / iTunes / Appstore on both devices then sign-in seperately and that should resolve it.  In the mean time, keep the messages as clean as possible.
    Best Regards

  • Why are my audiobooks showing up in my iTunes but they are not showing up on my iPod nano?

    So I downloaded an audiobook from an online source that is not from the iTunes store, but it is showing up in Books in the latest version of iTunes. I synced my iPod, and when I go into my Audiobooks in my iPod, it says that I don't have any. What is the problem? And how do I fix it?!?!

    Have you double checked to make sure these Audiobooks are configured to sync to your iPod from under the iPod's Books configuration tab in iTunes?
    To access this configuration tab, plug in your iPod and select it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab.  Now locate the Books tab and select it.  Here you can configure what and how audiobooks are synced to the device.
    If you make any changes to this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button on in the lower right hand corner.

  • Why is iTunes 64bit showing as 32bit?

    I've been meaning to ask this for awhile now.
    I've been using 64bit Windows 7 since the day it launched, and whenever there's been an update to iTunes, I've installed it.  But I've been very careful to download the 64bit version.  Install that, and it goes OK.  It all seems to work, except I'm confused with the display shown here.
    My list of running apps in Windows shows iTunes as running in 32bit mode.  Why is that?   My Windows 7 is definitely 64 bit, I've definitely installed from the 64bit download from the Apple website.  I'm confused as to that display. 
    Edit: OK, after looking around these forums, it appears that iTunes itself is 32bit, but some of the connected apps to iTunes (and drivers) are 64bit.   Anyone have any idea when the app itself will go 64bit?

    I've always assumed those silly strings were recording the results of the gapless playback analysis but whatever they're for it would be better if they were stored in a spare field.
    Windows Media Player/Windows Explorer may be less fussy on embedded artwork formats than iTunes or the media file might actually be missing the art but the Windows Explorer cache (Thumbs.db) still shows it. You say removing-reimporting doesn't help but I assume you can still paste new artwork in and have it remembered. If so you might want to use the following tool to at least take some of the effort out of searching out which tracks you need to repair.
    *How to find tracks without artwork*
    To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant jpeg images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
    I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.

  • Why are my tv shows not going on my ipod?

    when i try to sync my ipod to my computer with my itunes , my itunes won't register that my tv shows are all checked so i can't get them onto ipod. Why won't my itunes recognize my tv shows?

    Double check to see how TV Shows are configured to sync to your iPod.  Plug your iPod in and when it appears under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes, click on it.  This will bring you to the iPod's Summary tab.  Now locate the TV Show tab along the top and click on it.  What configurations do you have selected/enabled from under this configuration tab?

  • Why are my videos showing up in "Recently Added" but not in TV Shows or Movies?

    I didn't have a problem adding videos to iTunes for several months, but now videos are not appearing in the right places. For some reason, they appear in the Recently Added playlist, but they are not showing up in the Movies section (which is where they had all gone before). The video plays fine if I play the file from Recently Added.
    The files are mp4 format converted with Handbrake, which I have used for a long time without issue.
    2011 iMac OSX 10.7.3 & iTunes 10.6.1 (7)
    My research into the issue has found that some users experience metadata info missing from files. I ran some of the recommended programs that automatically add metadata to videos, but still had no luck adding. The issue is with every single mp4 file I add, and it just suddenly started.
    If I click "Get Info" on a file, they are listed as being sorted as a Movie. If I change it to TV Show or Music Video then click OK, no changes are saved and file goes no where.
    I get no Error Message when adding to iTunes.
    I hope I have provided enough information. I'm eager to hear your answers!

    Update:
    Still having issues getting new videos to show in the "Movies" or "TV Shows" categories of iTunes. However, last night I discovered that Home Sharing on my iPad lists the newly imported videos in the Movies category (iPad & Video app). So, the files aren't corrupt or anything like that. It just seems like I need to 'refresh' the Movies page. Is that possible?
    Since I can see the files on the iPad now, I want to remove the extra copies of movies I imported. But, since I can only find them in Playlists, how can I delete them?

  • Why are ITunes Library files stored on Buffalo Pro 1TB NAS being corrupted?

    I'm having a flaky problem with the ITunes library files (Mac version) stored on a Buffalo NAS. Frequently, ITunes says the ITunes library file is damaged and creates a new one.
    Moreover, there are temp files that ITunes apparntly creates that apparently become the new Library and XML files when ITunes shuts down. Apparently, this is done behind the scenes while ITunes is shutting down, but lately, these files are no longer being renamed or deleted. Often multiple temp files will accumulate.
    Lastly, and most oddly, if I try to rename one of these temp files to ITunes Library based on best guess from size and date which is the ITunes Library file, it sometimes works, but it sometimes doesn't. When it doesn't, I will find a "phantom" ITunes Library file and ITunes Library.xml that cannot be selected, opened or deleted. They are greyed out in Finder. Since the file exists, a rename or copy will fail, saying a file already exists with that name, but I can't select it to delete it. Often when this happens, the actual file name seems to "flicker" between temp file and Itunes Library file. If I try to click on ITunes Library, it disappears, but a new temp file instantly appears. If I try to click on the temp file, that disappears and the ITunes Library file appears.
    Rebooting the NAS fixes the phantom file problem. I delete all ITunes library and temp files, and reindex from ITunes, but it only starts all over again.
    If I do the same process in Windows, ITunes will only find about 10% of my files and then stop. (I have about 16,500 tracks total.) Windows doesn't seem to have any probelms with "phantom" files.
    Checks on the NAS disk array show no problems.
    Any thoughts?
