Getting rid of podcasts I have listened to

Hi
I have set up my iPod to automatically download certain podcasts. They seem to sync fine from my computer to my iPod, only keeping the ones I have NOT listened to yet on the iPod.
My question is, How do I get rid of the podcasts I have already listened to ON MY COMPUTER? They don't seem to go away.... Do I have to manually select each one and delete it? That would be quite a number to have to see to. Is there no easier way. I have an old iPod and I am still using 10.3. Maybe that is my problem

I have to manually delete the podcasts I have already listened to from iTunes in order to get rid of them. Using SETTINGS, the podcasts I have listened to on the iPod ARE deleted, but they are not deleted from iTunes.
Actually, I think this is a safety measure. Some people purchase their podcasts (eg: language learning, for example) and they DO NOT want to "automatically" delete them from iTunes.... so I am okay with this.... if anyone has a better idea, let me know.

Can't get rid of podcast capture initial screen?

can't get rid of podcast capture screen?

When I open the download with the "Get Info"..it is described as a Podcast Capture Document...which is NOT how it was downloaded. It was downloaded as a PDF file. When I try to open the download in the "Open With" option I can not use any application except i photo, mail, textedit, i tunes and utilities...none of these options will open the download...which as I said was a PDF file when I originally downloaded it (it was a magazine). It appears that the download has been converted into a Podcast Capture Document....and I want that to stop..
Any ideas how to keep this happening to future downloads??? If I can figure out how to stop this conversion (from PDF to Podcast) I'll be happy, because I can just down load the magazine again.
Thanks..
Miguel

What you do mean a lock icon?
On the whole screen or just in the status bar where it shows "iPod" and Time/Battery?
If the icon's there everything's ok. The feature was removed in iOS 6, anyways, the icon should be only in the lock screen.

How to get rid of podcasts in the cloud

Since the update, I see all the episodes of the podcasts that I listen to. In addition to the downloaded ones, I see every other episode with the cloud icon, which means it is available in the cloud.
However, I've already listened to most of them, so I would like to have a view where I only see the ones that I haven't listened to. There is a check box, and I've unchecked the ones that I don't want anymore, but I can't get rid of them - there is no "Delete".
How can I arrange my podcasts so that I only see the downloaded episodes and the episodes available in the cloud that I haven't listened to yet?
Thanks

I've found the solution, this way it worked:
"Concepts: " & CStr({DevelopmentTracking_SELECT.Concepts}, 0)

Did Apple get rid of podcast app on the ipod

My podcast app disappeared from my ipod without me deleting it. Did Apple get rid of it or is something wrong with my ipod.

What happens when you try to redownload it?
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
have yo tried using the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find it.

How do I delete podcasts I have listened to from latest version of iTunes?

I am not able to keep up with the new versions of iTunes and IPod (now on iOS 6.0.1). It seems you have to completely re-learn things almost every month!
I download podcasts from a lot of sources, but virually never direct from iTunes (I find the search bar in iTunes almost useless and can rarely find what I want, whereas I know the home sites of the podcasts I do want, and want to manage all the downloads manually).
I listen to them and afterwards manually delete them directly on my iPod.
Before the latest version, I never used to sync my iPod and so it didn;t really matter to me what was in my iTunes library.
I now find it very difficult to manage the iPod manually (transferring things individually into iTunes and then to iPod, so yesterday I (accidentally) deleted everything in iTunes and iPod and started again. I now find that I cannot delete things from iTines and am scared that when I next sync my iPod, all the podcasts I have already listened to and deleted directly on the iPod will be re-loaded into the iPod.
Please could someone help me?
In an ideal world, without losing what I have re-loaded into the iPod I would go back to the previous version of ITunes and to the pre- latest update version of software I had on my iPod as I learnt how to do things undr those conditions!
Many thanks, and with apologies for being too old and tech illiterate to keep up with these constant changes.........
tks,
Nick

Getting rid of podcasts not downloaded

I am using most current 7.1.5 iTunes. My question is: How do I get rid of the listing of undownloaded podcasts. By this I mean when you subscribe to a podcast all episodes show up. Thats great, but what if I don't want to download some of them. It takes up a lot of real estate when scrolling through all your podcast. When I select the one with "get" and delete them they come right back the next time I refresh. In the older version of iTunes I used to be able to do this and they would stay gone.
Please someone help me here

Hmmmm, I've always (and just tested) 'highlighted' then deleted ('apple' & backspace key).
No problems I'm afraid :s

Getting rid of songs that have an "!"

I changed the location of my ITunes folder and once I did that it found a number of songs that could not be located. The new folder location has all the songs I own so I would like to get rid of all the songs that have the "!" next to them in a fast and efficient way. I can not sort by just the column that has the "!" otherwise it would be easy to remove them all at once. I could have sworn I have done this before. If anyone has a good way of removing songs that can not be found please let me know. Thanks.

Settings/ Music/ Show All Music/ OFF
There is a parallel setting in Settings/ Videos/ which also includes Videos in the cloud, as well as Settings/ iTunes & App Store/ where you can set both Music and Video preferences. But you only need to change a setting in one location.

How to get rid of "Delivery costs have not been cleared" status = MM_EKKO

Hi dear experts,
During pretreatment of MM_EKKO archiving object (TA: SARA), I get an amazing huge amount of PO position which can not be archived due to "*Delivery costs have not been cleared*".
I tried several ways to find out how to solve this issue but without any success.
Point is that we do not clear delivery cost regarding those PO positions, but delivery cost are transfered directly to a global account.
It means that those PO's won't never be cleared.
Any ideas about how I can fix this issue?
Best regards,
Daniel

Yep,
no idea why, but when I uncheck the "Final Invoice" box save and went back into the same PO and check again the same "Final Invoice" box, then, as a miracle, SARA=>MM_EKKO=> Pretreatment knows that this document is cleared and can be archived.
It is just that for now, really old PO's are located in the present residence time
I hope this slyness will help someone else one day.
Regards,
Daniel

I wanat to get rid of the firefox ads that appear on my screen at start-up, and remain there. I want to get rid of ads, not have more show up from firefox!

I have been requesting help for this for the past HOUR. Firefox is placing ads on my screen at start-up (and they remain there) to get firefox on Android (I don't have a cell phone that uses it), and to go to the firefox site with information on how to use..........I have used firefox for years.........don't need this, and when I go there since it seems to be forced on me, read what is new, and try to close out...........it is back again when I open firefox again. If I keep getting ads from firefox, I will change to another browser!

Firefox 4+ versions use a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it (no internet access needed to load that page).<br />
That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session button and the snippets then set another page as the home page like www.google.com used in Firefox 3 versions.
You may be seeing a similar ad on the Google site to install Google Chrome.<br />
In that case use the close X on that ad to close that pop-up and it should stay away unless local storage gets cleared.

I have accidentally downloaded the Mackeeper to my I mac and am now unable to get rid ofit. I have tried dragging it to the waste bin but it wont play ball any ideas?

Help i am unable to remove it from my computer

MacKeeper is highly invasive malware* that can de-stablize your operating system. It is also unethically marketed and a rip-off. Positive reviews of it are known to have been paid for by the developers, Zeobit.
Further opinion on it and how to uninstall MacKeeper malware:
http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/09/21/how-to-uninstall-mackeeper-malware/
Do NOT download or use the ‘MacKeeper uninstaller’ from the Zeobit site, as this will cause even more damage to your operating system.
