Can no longer shuffle through Podcasts after loading iTunes 7

I listen to a lot of podcasts throughout the day. Some are just a few minutes long and some are over an hour. Instead of individually selecting a podcast after each one played I would select Music -> Genres -> Podcasts and then just hit play. My iPod would then randomly and continuously start playing podcasts. I just bought a new 8gb Nano and upgraded to iTunes 7 and this feature no longer seems to work. Am I missing something? Is there something I need to turn on to make it work again? If not, this would be a serious setback for me. Thanks. Mike

Your best bet will be to create a smart playlist somewhere along the lines with: "Podcast is TRUE" and "Play count is 0". There is one more rule you will have to enter, but will depend on whether you want to include video podcasts or not. The last rule to enter would be "Kind is not MPEG-4 Video file" and/or "Kind is not "Quicktime Movie File". If you wish to include video podcasts, ignore the last rule and only enter the "Podcast is true" and Play count is 0" rule. If video podcasts still show up on your playlist, you may have another kind of video file still in your podcast library. Simply right click on View> View Options> then check the box on Kind. Then scroll to see what other types of video files you may have and add them to the "Kind is not ***" rule.
Good luck.

  • Can't open "Music" on iPhone after loading iTunes match iCloud

    When I open "Music" after a while the iPhone return to the start. And on my iPad I can find only a part of my songs, placed in iCloud.

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Regards.

    I-tunes can no longer 'locate' my library , after a botched cut & paste attempt to back-up onto an external drive.Cant play any music as it "can't find" the library  Still syncing with i-Pod but playlists lost , podcasts no longer syncing.   How to restore back to original state . I have tried re-installing  - with no change

    I do the same thing as you do...
    My music is on an external drive as to not use up gigabytes of storage that need not be used for media.
    There are a couple basic principles to iTunes that I believe you should know.
    1. iTunes is not a media storage program. It does not store your media "in iTunes". It simply is an organization tool for your media already on a hard disk.
    2. As iTunes is not a storage mechanism, it has no way to "know" whether or not the media that is listed is actually there. This is where the "design" of iTunes comes into play.
    I like to think of iTunes as a bread-crumb trail. The "music" in iTunes, isn't actually there. The bread crumb is the location on the external hard drive.
    If that bread crumb trail disappears (in this case the external drive you use). If said external drive is not plugged in, that bread crumb trail is not able to be followed. iTunes is "lost" and unable to find the media. The only way to remedy this is to place the media on your local drive.
    To address your issue of the library. If you hold down shift, you can select your library on your external drive. It will be a file with an .itl extension. The folder name will be your external drive.
    I go into edit > preferences > advanced and set my library to the correct location. Make sure you check the box "Copy to iTunes Folder when importing" (or whatever it says).
    You can't fix the issue of iTunes not seeing the media if your drive is unplugged unless you physically move the content to your OS HDD...Or any other HDD you use.

  • I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few episodes at a time due to the limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around?

    I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few past episodes at a time due to limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around for this?

    Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
    I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
    At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

  • I can no longer scroll through app selections in Genius iPad

    I can no longer scroll through app selections in Genius on my iPad in the App Store. I see the first row and half of the second row and cannot scroll. This is a new condition. Landscape or portrait is the same.

    Just adding my voice as well.
    Had this issue for awhile now. Believe it must have surfaced after last iOS update.
    Quite annoying since Genius was a good way to quick browse for new app suggestions.

  • Can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013

    can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013, in other words unable to access mails through outlook or from other Applications services.
    needed RCA ... plz help..

    Hi,
    From your description, you can send and receive messages only when you use OWA after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
    In your case, I recommend you create a new test mailbox in your Exchange 2013 and check if you can send and receive messages on Outlook. If yes, it is recommended to create a new profile to solve this issue.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.
    Best regards,

    Are you sure that these times are still selected to sync in iTunes?
    When you connect your iPad to your PC and with iTunes running, select your iPad under the devices button in the upper right corner of the iTunes window. Then click on the Movies tab and make sure that the movies are selected (checked) to sync. Check the playlists in the Music tab as well.
