Splitting Music and Podcasts Across Different Discs

Is it possible to split Music and Podcasts in the same library across different discs? The reason is my music is too big to get on my laptop drive so I have an external disk drive that is always plugged in when I'm at home. However I want to take podcasts with me when I travel so I want them to be put onto my laptop hard drive. I know I could probably achieve this by creating 2 libraries (although I haven't tried yet) but would prefer to see if I can do it with one.

Put its internal drive into an enclosure and copy the files off.

  • My iphone 4s deleted all of my books, music, and podcasts from my phone and now will not allow me to put them back on there.

    As stated in the title, I was redownloading old purchases. After transferring a tv show onto my iphone it would not allow me to transfer another one. I wasn't able to locate the show on my phone, so then I checked my music. All of my music and podcasts were missing. My books were showing up at first, but then as soon as I closed out of one that I was reading and clicked on a different one they all vanished as well. I tried dragging on a song, a book, a show, and I kept getting the circle with the line through it. I have no idea what to do. My phone has always been set up to manually manage music and videos. When I selected to sync all music it still wouldn't do anything.
    I've also recently, within the past 4 hours, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes because it kept crashing when I was trying to download my old purchases. I've done it before and haven't had any issues with it deleting anything before. I'm in the process of restoring my phone in the hopes that this will work, but I don't know if it will.
    Anyone out there that can help me?

    iPhone 3G is Old technology. When it was launched it had iOS 2.0. Currently, the highest it can go is iOS 4.2.1 and therefore can not handle many newer applications. As you have recorded, it is giving good service for which it has been designed.
    Needless to say, if you want to use applications as stated, you must have at least 3GS, whose current is iOS 6.1.2. On the lighter side; Rather than updating iOS they are asking you to update iPhone (Technology). Cheers

  • Sync problems with music and podcasts

    Hi there,
    whenever I put new content to the music playlists or I got new podcasts loaded down by iTunes to sync them to the iPhone, the first sync process breaks down. The iPhone applies again after 10 seconds in a locked condition so I have to unlock it fisrt to keep on syncing.
    I always have to sync twice to get a result. For example, to get new songs to the iPhone, first I have to put the songs on the iTunes playlist, then I have to sync with a disabled checkbox at "music" (the complete music will be erased at the iPhone) and then I have to sync again with an enabled checkbox (complete music will be sync comletely new at the iPhone).
    It takes a lot of time to do the sync process in this way, can anybody help me? Am I doing something wrong?
    Best regards

    Another user recently reported a similar problem and it turned out to be an issue with email.
    What I would do would be to turn off all syncing except for music and podcasts, reset your phone (perhaps even restore) and try the sync and see if it works. If it does at least you can narrow it down to something other than music and podcasts.

  • I Have an Iphone 3gs and have problems syncing music and podcasts

    I have had my phone now for around 15 months and have not had previous problems with it.
    I synced my phone today and it has cleared all music and podcasts from it and will not allow me to resync - apps are syncing fine.
    It is a 32GB phone but on summary page it now says its capacity is only 4GB
    Any ideas on what I have done or how to fix?
    Thanks

    If you're talking about "regular" icloud, then setting it up should have no effect on your music.  Try syncing the device to iTunes and check the music settings and sync again.
    If you subscribe to iTunes Match, is the device in wifi range?

  • While syncing movie iPod/iTunes deletes my music and Podcasts

    While syncing movie iPod/iTunes deletes my music and Podcasts. This is very frustrating becaucse I have ALL my sync settings set to Manual. What can I do to stop this? I'm about to throw my iPod against the wall!

    sorry you've just been dealt a blow from Apple trying to "help" its customers. you're correct: you cannot sync only music or movies. even if "manually sync" is selected, once you sync something like moves, the rest of your library gets deleted. it's completely backwards and non-intuitive.

  • Music and podcasts keep erasing themselves on Iphone 4s

    This is driving me nuts. I've had the phone for a year now and it only just started doing this in the last week. Everytime I go to listen to something on my phone its all gone! When I plug it into the computer it shows that the music and podcasts should be loaded to it but they simply are not. I used to have it on wireless sync and I thought maybe that was the problem but I've since turned it off and am still having the issue.
    Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?

    Try deselecting Sync Music under the Music tab and deselect Sync Podcasts under the Podcasts tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync. This should remove all music and podcasts from the iPhone.
    Follow this by reselecting Sync Music and Sync Podcasts checking your selections below for being transferred to the iPhone followed by a sync.

  • Music and Podcast cannot be synched, but Apps can

    Hi.
    My iPhone 4 is running the latest iOS. And I am running iTunes 10.7 on my Mac OS X.
    I can sync Apps like Whatsapp and Skype.
    But I couldn't get my Music and Podcast synced...
    Can anyone point out a solution? Life without podcast is difficult.

    The images folder just displays download click to download videos.
    I even tried the tips and tricks section which asked me to connect the phone as a USB and check for errors, but that did not work for my problem. I still don't see the images and sound files.
    I can only see them when i connect to the PC and use the Nokia Phone Browser.
    The firmware version i have installed is V 4.0726.2.0.1, updated on 26-06-2007.
    Any suggestions will help.

  • HT4085 are third party media apps (youtube, grooveshark, etc.) grouped in the muted or unmuted category?  Since music and podcast (default apps) DO mute and games DON'T mute I thought it worth asking.

  • Move Itunes, Music and Podcast to a new PC

    I want to move ITunes software, Music and Podcast from a Windows XP to a Windows 7 PC and keep the Podcast and Music?  I don't want the IPod Shuffle to be resync.  It wants to clear the Podcast and Music that's on the IPod Shuffle.

    This document describes some methods.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    The most precise and efficient method is the one named External drive.  If you are proficient in networking Windows computers, you can use the same method and transfer the files over a network connection, instead of using an external drive.  NOTE:  Depending on network speed, using an external drive may still be faster.
    Although there are many steps in the document, I'll summarize how it works.
    There is a folder called iTunes in your computer's user data Music folder.  By default, they are located here (for Windows)
    Win XP - \Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Win 7 - \Users\[your username]\My Music\iTunes\
    If you are using the standard (default) iTunes settings, that is good, because ALL of your iTunes data is in that iTunes folder.  You are copying that complete iTunes folder to an external drive.
    On the new computer, after you install iTunes and run it at least once, it also has an iTunes folder.  From the external drive, (with iTunes NOT running) you are replacing that new iTunes folder with the existing iTunes folder from your old PC.  The next time you run iTunes on your new PC, it uses the iTunes folder from your old PC and iTunes should look like it did on your old PC, with all the content.  Since it's the same iTunes library, the iPod should not need a "resync."
    When you read the long detailed procedure in the document, you can keep my summary in mind so that you "see the big picture."  If you are not using the default iTunes settings, the document covers what to do.  You can post back with any specific questions.

  • Auto Set the Volume for Music and Podcast?

    I would like to automatically set the volume adjustment (+100%) for all my music and podcasts.
    I get 1-2 podcasts everyday and have to manually set the volume after they have downloaded (Get Info->Options)
    I can make mass changes by selecting multiple items - but what I hope to do is make a setting so that all new music/podcast etc are auto set to this volume.
    I use open headphones outside a lot and some of the podcasts cannot be heard even on max volume slider. Adjusting the volume works fine but as I mentioned I do it manually
    Hope you can help
    P.

    thanks for the link but unfortunately it doesn't help. I think my IMovie 08 might be corrupted or something. Because nothing can reduce the imported audio track's volume. I might need to take it to back to my store and ask them to have a look at it.

  • I used to be able to play music and podcasts in a single playlist (with iTunes DJ), but now can't seem to do this.  Is there a way around this with iTunes 11?

    You are freaken genius!  Apple should update their instructions on how to give playlists, because the old way no longer works.  And people tend to give gifts around this time of year.  Anyway, mahalo niu loa (thank you very much)!

  • TS1702 Music and Podcasts no longer together

    I enjoy putting songs and podcasts in the same playlist.  Looks like I can no longer do this.  Music in one app and podcasts in the other.  Did Apple really just take this away from me? Any solutions?

    Correct. Music and Podcasts are now in separate apps. If you want to put them in the same playlist, the only way I know of to do it is, using iTunes, change the podcasts to music by selecting the podcasts, Get Info>Options>Media Kind.

  • All my music and podcasts synced through iTunes are scrambled up. The songs and podcasts start in the middle and skip around. It happends on 3 diffrent Windows computers with 2 diffrent iPhone 4's.

    All my music and podcasts synced through iTunes are scrambled up. The songs and podcasts start in the middle and skip around. It happends on 3 diffrent Windows computers with 2 diffrent iPhone 4's.

    Anyone have any ideas or did my wife and myself just get defective phones?
    Like I said all songs and podcasts start  like 30 sec in them jump back to the intro then to the end then the middle. Its quite crazy.

  • I am having trouble restoring music and podcasts to my iPhone after a system upgrade that required a restore to factory settings? All I can access is purchased music.

    When I upgraded to OS 6 I had to restore my iPhone 4 to factory settings and now only have access to my purchased music and only some podcasts.  Lost my playlists and most podcasts and can't figure out how to retrieve them from a old iTunes library on windows especially with the new podcasts app...podcasts no longer appear in iTunes.   Is there a way to fix this?

    Its not a matter of Safari "supporting this site". Its a lack of testing on United's part that its site is compatible across all platforms. They have introduced code, script or markup that isn't fully compatible. You can try downloading Chrome or an alternate browser as a work around for now. But it is United's job to fix its site. My guess is that enough complaints will come in and they will do so, but this is an airline we are talking about.

  • No syncing of photos, calenders and contacts, only music and Podcasts

    At first, syncing was no problem but now my 120 GB iPod Classic has decided to be a bit more selective of what it wants on the disc. Only Files that are stored over iTunes will be synced (Music, Podcasts). Photos, Calenders and Contacts won´t be synced anymore.
    I get no errors while or after syncing the iPod. The settings for Photo, Calender an Contacts are set to sync all files. There are still 46 GB storage left on the iPod and i have just a small amount of photos, so this couldn´t be the problem.
    I have also tried the "Restoring iPod to factory settings" function, but the problem remained and i also lost the photos that have been synced to the iPod when everything worked well.
    I have OS 10.4.11 and all the Online Updates for my MacMini 1,42 GHz installed.

    When you connect the iPod to iTunes the Summary screen appears, but this only shows Sync options for music and videos. Notice the tabs at the top of the Summary screen. The photos are another tab (or pane) - the Photo one and the calendars and contacts options are on the Contacts pane.
    I don't know about the Mac, but Windows updates to iTunes have been known to change the options, so if you have received an update, you need to check this.
