Podcasts not syncing to Podcasts folder on ipod 80gb

I have subscribed to 6 podcasts and they do sync to my ipod but they go into the Music folder rather than the Podcast folder. How do I get them to sync into the Podcast folder going forward, and how do I get them out of my music folder. I thought Apple was suppose to have intuitive software and hardware, but this ipod is a ***** to figure out. I love it, but the documentation *****.

Thanks for your response. I had added them all as Subscriptions from itunes, so that didn't seem to be the problem. In the time between posting my question and your reply, I was able to get the Podcasts into my Podcast folder on my ipod, but they are still appearing on the Music folder also, even though they do not appear in my iTunes library. I assume that I'll have to erase everything on my ipod and reload to get them out of my Music list unless anyone knows how to delete items from the ipod one at a time.Very frustrated.

Why are my podcasts not syncing with Apple TV when all devices connect to the same Apple iD?

Does anybody have an idea as to why my recently updated Apple TV does not sync my podcasts from my Apple iD. It's supposed to, it's not doing it, and it's very annoying.
This is only half the aggravation; the other half is that all my podcasts have been deleted automatically twice(no apparent reason other than perhaps a bug in iOS 7.0.2 / 11A501).
This one I have managed to comeup with sort of a temporary fix while Apple fixes this: I made a copy/backup of the "Podcasts" folder inside the "iTunes Media" which in turn is in the "iTunes" folder Within the "Music" folder in my Mac. When my Podcasts are deleted, I just drag the backup "Podcasts" folder I created into the My Pocasts in iTunes.
Apple please fix it.

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). How do I fix it?

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). I have tried unplugging the devices, restarting the computer, selectively unplugging and plugging in the devices, closing and opening the relevant applications (iTunes, iPhoto, etc). I have tried using different USB cables.
It's like all of a sudden the synching service stopped functioning or recognizing these devices for some reason. The other ports work just fine (monitor).
The only USB-connected external device that appears to be unaffected is the USB SuperDrive and it works on all the USB ports into which I plug it.
How do I fix this?

Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens or doesn't happen.

Podcast not syncing because bit rate is not supported

For some reason 3 podcasts will not sync because the bit rate is not supported. How do I fix this so I can play them on my iPod. They are Video Podcasts.
PC Windows XP

Loaded HD is the High Definition version, intended for the Apple TV device. You cannot play this version on an iPod.
Look in the iTunes Store for the non-HD version - that should play. If you have trouble finding it, use the *Search iTunes Store* facility and it will appear in the Podcasts section. You may need to "see all".

My iphone will not sync certain podcasts

For some reason after the last Itunes update I have a few podcasts that will not sync, They are professsional podcasts that I have been subscribed to for years, and currently subscribe to other podcasts by the same producers that work fine.
The podcasts download to my macbook just fine, but when I sync they don't appear on the phone, when I view the podcast list on the phone from my macbook, they appear to be there but are greyed out and have a dotted circle like they are being loaded. They stay like that and there doens't seem to be anything I can do to get them to actually copy to my phone. Ive tried rebooting both devices and reloading the podcasts nothing works. Other podcasts continue to load and play fine.
The offending podcasts are the adam and drew show, episode 42, Wiretap: it's all been done. Under the influence:Nothing In Common: How Hollywood Portrays Ad People.
I'm not sure if anyone out there can help me, but if you have any insight I would appreciate it.

It is there. You need to substitute whatever your user name is where it says {YourUserName}. So if the user name that you log in with is "doofus" you would open Windows Explorer and enter "c:\" in the address bar,
You then find the folder Users and double-click on it. Next find Doofus and double-click on it. Then AppData and double click. Then Roaming and double click. Then Apple Computer and double click on it. Then MobileSync and double click on it. Finally Backup and double click on it.
Alternatively, you could just enter
C:\Users\{Doofus\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
in the address bar.
You may have to set the option to Show Hidden Files first in Folder Options.

Nano 6G not syncing played podcasts

I have a nano 6g with the most recent firmware and Windows 7 PC with the most recent iTunes. My nano used to sync the podcasts I listened to on the nano as played and then download new ones. I now have to do it manually in iTunes. Please correct the syncing mechanism on the nano 6g with iTunes. This is really irritating, because it's hard to remember by title which podcasts I've listened to.
Thanks.

i first tried a simple complete uninstall then reinstall of iTunes, but i noticed during the install that when the installer got to the stage of installing Apple Mobile Device Support, it would stop and then say 'rolling back action' and the loading bar would move backwards, before installing the rest of iTunes as normal. hence, AMDS was still uninstalled and my iPod still wasn't being recognized by iTunes.
On rare occasions on Windows XP systems, I've seen that effect produced when there are old files/folders for the netaapl.sys and usbaapl.sys drivers stuck down in your Windows Operating system folders. If that's afoot, the following (somewhat involved) procedure may be of some assistance:

Video Podcasts Not Syncing From my iPad Mini to iTunes for Windows

Hello all. I have the iPad Mini, and recently have been downloading my Podcasts there.
It occurred to me that in case something happens to my iPad, I should have my Podcasts backed up to my computer. So, i downloaded iTunes for Windows on my computer. I plugged my iPad Mini into my computer and synced it, so that my Podcasts would sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library.
I noticed that all of my podcasts did sync, except for the 3 video podcasts I have. None of the video podcasts synced.
Anyone know how I can get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library?
Thank you in advance!

Just wanted to kick my question back up. to see if anyone had any idea how to get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to iTunes on my computer.
Audio podcasts seem to be syncing fine. Just the video podcasts are not.
Thanks.

All Unplayed Podcasts - Not Syncing

Seems like there is a problem with syncing and Podcasts. iTunes is reporting 167 unplayed podcasts but the iPhone was only syncing 60 of those. I updated to the new iTunes today and that helped (iphone now sync's 123 unplayed podcasts) a little but I am still not getting all of the podcasts.
I've got the 16GB iPhone with 10GB of free space so space shouldn't be a problem.
Has anyone experienced this problem? Any fixes?

I sort of had the same problem. I usually transfer podcasts manually to my Touch. Recently, (not sure if it was before or after updating iTunes) I couldn't transfer podcasts at all. I tried manually and with sync. The only thing that would happen was about a one second long "syncing" message on the Touch's screen. After syncing, all of my podcasts were gone. The Podcast section was totally empty.
Two days ago I found out that my podcasts were actually in the Touch. They showed up in the browsing window of the Touch. The Touch was treating the podcasts like a music genre. To make the podcasts available to play (since they were actually on the Touch) I made a playlist of the podcasts. They now show up on the playlist where I can play them. Apple certainly needs to look at the newest iTunes and fix this podcast problem. It is an annoying fix.
To see if your podcasts are on your phone or not use the browse button on iTunes while your iPhone is highlighted on the directory on the left side of the screen. If your podcasts are there you can make a playlist in iTunes and set your podcasts in there. The will then transfer over.

Video Podcasts Will Not Sync; Audio Podcasts Do

I recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to the ios 5. Now when I sync my iPhone to iTunes, my video podcasts will not sync. I have not changed any of my settings, and I noticed "All podcasts" is selected under Podcasts section. Audio podcasts sync fine. All was fine until I did the recent software upgrade. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

They are there. They are now under the "Video" app on the first page of your device. Seems like a pointless change to me. It took me a couple of days to find mine, too.

Podcast not syncing

I am hoping someone can help me understand why only a few of my podcast are sync'd between my iphone and PC. I have the latest versions on both, including iTunes and I am unable to see several podcasts on my iphone? Any ideas?

New iPad will not sync music, podcasts, or photos

So I sync'd my new iPad yesterday and cannot figure out why my music, videos, movies, photos, and podcasts do not sync. All of my apps carried over, but that's it. I might have 2 seperate email accounts associated with my iPhone and my iPad, but I don't know how to get them on the same account. Any help?

Hi and welcome........
I might have 2 seperate email accounts associated with my iPhone and my iPad, but I don't know how to get them on the same account.
Merging two different e-mail accounts isn't possible but you can use multiple mail accounts on your iPad. Tap Settings / Mail, Contacts, Calendars / Add Account. Do that for each mail account you want.
cannot figure out why my music, videos, movies, photos, and podcasts do not sync.
Make sure iTunes recognizes your iPad.

ITunes does not sync Addressbook & Calender on my iPod Nano

Hi,
I am using Mac OS X 10.4.11, iTunes 7.6.1 with an iPod Nano Firmware V 1.1. Since I have updated iTunes from 7.6 to 7.6.1 my adressbook and calender data is not synchronized any more. No data of both applications will copied to my iPod. Are there any workarounds that fixes that kind of problem?
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
first please check the option "deactivate automatic sync for all iPhones and iPods" (iTunes Prefs - Sync)
It is checked by default (hope the option is right - I use german iTunes)
I build up my adressbook new (export data first, then remove folder /user/library/appl support/addressbook, afterwards import data again) - the next sync works!
With iCal I never had trouble.

IPod Touch iOS 4.2.1, Mac OS 10.6.8. ICal will not sync after a restore of iPod Touch. What's up?

iPod Touch (iOS 4.2.1) second generation; Mac (OS 10.6.8). After a restore, the iCal no longer syncs, Contacts do not sync, etc. What gives?

Greetings,
Sounds like something is wrong with the sync history.
Troubleshooting:
1.) Backup all your data:
Backup your iPhone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Backup your computer Addressbook: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
Backup your computer iCal: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966
Backup your calendars on MobileMe.
Follow http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4226
Go to "backing up data" and then "Backing up from me.com/calendar"
2.) Reset the computer's sync services and then restart the computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
3.) Plug in the iPhone and attempt a sync.
If that does not resolve the issue, where is the information "good", on the iPod Touch or the computer and are you using MobileMe to sync or do you just plug in your usb cable.
Hope that helps.

IPod shuffle will not sync with iTunes 7.3; "iPod sync failed"

My shuffle is acting weird lately. For example, when I plug in the iPod and try to add songs and/or sync the device, iTunes says, "iPod sync failed. Disconnect and reconnect, then try again." It's really annoying because I can't add any songs to it or change any settings. Please help me! I have tried almost everything to save my shuffle and have restored it about 6 times!

Have you tried a Disk Repair in the Disk Utility?
Also, you could have a damaged iPodDriver.kext file.
You can replace it by doing an archive and install or
use a 3rd party extractor and get it from your
Install disk. Or copy it from a friends Mac.
I have tried the Disk Repair in Disk Utility and it says my iPod shuffle is perfectly normal. I then decided to erase it with Disk Utility using Mac OS Extended (Journaled) but it didn't work, either. I am beginning to think this is a software problem with my computer...
I will try to replace the iPodDriver.kext file, but unfortunately, I lost the Tiger install disc. Can I use the install disc that came with my eMac (Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar, I think)? Please let me know soon, and thanks for helping!
P.S. If I can't install it from my eMac install disc, I think I will copy the iPodDriver.kext file from a computer at my library or somewhere else. I can also borrow a friend's Tiger disc and use Pacifist, a great program for extracting .pkg files, to get a fresh iPodDriver.kext file.

Podcast not listed under Podcasts- Music

I submitted my podcast about three weeks ago, and it has yet to be listed under Podcasts->Music. The podcast can be searched for, and the phobos address works fine. Is there a problem with my code?
Thanks
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=268926562

Nothing you do to your code will affect whether you are listed in your category section or the browse section. Your podcast will only be seen on its category page if it is popular enough, or the iTunes staff singles it out for "New & Notable" or "Featured." There isn't much you can really do beyond the suggestions given in the "Top 6 Podcasting Questions" stickied at the top of this forum.
You will probably never be in browse either, but that is because that feature cannot seem to handle any new listings. (mmm, buggy!)
