How to manage podcast episodes by: marking favorites, writing notes, etc.

I realize this is probably only a dream, but I would love a Podcasts app in which I could mark certain episodes within a station I listen to as *favorite* so that I could come back to these favorite episodes from time to time and review their content. What would be really cool is if I could not only mark them as favorites but also write a small note to myself as to the main info points from the podcast episode, so that when reviewing things, I could find what I am looking for easier. Since I glean information from the many podcasts I listen to for business purposes, having a library of the single best episodes (an acompanying notes) would really enhance my podcast experience.
Is there any way to do this with the Podcasts app?
Is there a different app I should explore for this?
Does itunes support something like this (or for that matter any other type of app for my iphone 5)?
Thanks much.

i dont know how the programs work, the ftp and rss updater and whatever, but if u use feedburner, or u can change what the name of the file it edits is, or u can create a .htacess that roots it, just stick all old episodes under what it updates in the file iWeb will update and when it updates, new episodes go on top
...er...mumbo jumbo...didjoo understand what i mean?

How to manage Podcasts as normal files?

I have Podcasts that I have updated and auto-deleted regularly. Sometimes, I want to treat a few files differently, and save them or put them in smart playlists while not having them show up on the main Podcast menu of mine. However, as soon as I delete them from my Podcasts folder they disappear from everywhere else. How can I stop that?
Alternatively, if I right-click an individual episode and mark it to not be auto-deleted, will it apply to just that episode, or the entire Podcast?

I'm marking this answered to get rid of it and I made another thread on the subject anyway. I'm still really annoyed that this can't be done though.

How to manage podcasts within iTunes?

Is iTunes just really deficient in managing podcasts? I just started using iTunes since I just bought an iPod, and I am subscribed to 10 or so podcasts. Some podcasts I like to keep all episodes, some I only want to keep the most recent. But it seems like the management features within iTunes only has global podcast settings (ie not for individual podcasts).
If that's true, that that will make it a huge pain in the butt to keep track of my podcasts.

oh, yeah.
You can also turn off the 'sync' function under the iPod device settings.
If you do this then you can manage your podcasts manually. This will allow you to have podcasts that are partially played without being deleted by the evil 'sync' function.
The downside to this is that you'll have to manually select and drag each podcast to the iPod. You'll also have to manually delete each file from the ipod.
hope that helps. not the best way, but it will work.

Podcast episode in iTunes feed but not on preview page

I have been experiencing different behavior with my podcast in the iTunes store this week. My latest two episodes took a couple of days to update in the iTunes feed when for the past two months they have appeared within an hour. What concerns me is that they are not displaying on the preview page for my podcast in the iTunes store, even the one that was published two and a half days ago. Apple's email support persists in telling me how to submit a podcast to the store and suggesting that I phone support and ask my question for a fee. Liberated Syndication tells me that the feed URL is accurate and that the episodes in question have been published. It also says several of its customers are experiencing this problem currently with iTunes.
Any ideas?
My feed URL is http://astroinsight.libsyn.com
My iTunes URL is http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/astroinsights-podcast/id479652731

Your feed is at http://www.cooksux.com/theahhashow/podcast/podcastblaster.xml
iTunes is unable to read this feed because there is a fatal error in the episode of 27 November. The 'itunes:subtitle' tag contains an ampersand ('&') by itself - because an ampersand indicates the beginning of a code sequence which is never completed, and this renders the feed unreadable. You need instead to use the code
&
as you have in fact done elsewhere. Since this is in episode 5 this is why your subscription stopped at episode 4. I'm not clear how the Store has managed to keep updating, except that the Store and the iTunes application are quite different things and it may be that the Store software has been arranged to ignore this error. Anyway, make the change and it will work again. (Make sure there aren't any more instances of this.)

How to manage podcasts?

I want to subscribe to a podcast, keep all unplayed episodes, and play back from oldest to newest. If I select "keep all" then literally every available episode is downloaded. After marking the 50+ I've already heard before I got the phone as played, the podcasts don't go away. If I delete them and change settings, they are all downloaded again. The windows phone desktop app doesn't appear to manage subscriptions, it mostly just transfers files. How is this supposed to work? I really want it to but this just doesn't seem right.

Previously on my Lumia 800, I was using Zune to subscribe and sync from laptop to phone.
On the 920, I now use a free app from the store called 'Podcast'. The interface is a bit weird but it works for me but doesn't support video. Benefit is that I can manually sync direct to phone, no laptop involveed.
However I understand their is a better app (not free) that I will try, called 'Podcatcher'.

New podcast episode downloads in subscription but not shown in episode list

We are uploading podcasts under the name Rivendell Fellowship. (link is http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/rivendell-fellowship/id392550297)
I subscribe and the most recent episode downloaded automatically and plays in I-tunes. But when I search through our episode list, it isn't shown. I wanted to post an online link to that particular episode but can't find it to do so.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Your latest episode, 'Follow Me', posted 6 March, appears in the feed, when subscribing, and in the Store page. The only oddity is that the Store page is not showing the duration - this is a quirk which has affected a number of podcasts recently: but everything otherwise is quite normal.
If you want to post a link to the actual media file, it's at
http://recordings.talkshoe.com/TC-87855/TS-461055.mp3
Otherwise I'm not entirely clear whether you still have a problem - please do post back if you have, but it would be helpful if you could provide exact details of what you are expecting to see but aren't.

Some podcast episodes I can drag & drop, not others

New current gen iPod Touch, 16gb. Just downloaded iTunes 8.2 (which may have been my first mistake, in hindsight...always wait for that .1) on an HP Vista laptop (which I know is my second problem...can't be helped).
When I started using it (just got it a few days ago), I let the automatic sync update my podcasts. But I couldn't find a setting I liked just right to keep the ones I wanted on and not others, so I decided to turn off the auto-sync and just drag & drop.
But when I started dragging my podcasts over, I noticed some would come over, and others wouldn't. All of my podcasts are subscribed in iTunes, and it's even such that I can get certain episodes of a particular podcast, but not others. Tried restarting iTunes and iPod both. I've got plenty of space left, and even tried deleting some casts, but the ones that wouldn't sync before still wouldn't.
Also have tried downloading the missing episodes via the iTunes store app on the Touch, but the same casts, when downloaded, still don't show up it seems.
Any ideas? This seems to be a very random problem.

I think you will find that podcasts are handled pretty well by iTunes if you let it do it's job. Dragging and dropping podcasts seems like too much work - especially when you get the problems you are seeing.
BTW, the setting that works best for me is the simplest - Sync all unplayed podcasts. I refresh my podcasts at least once per day, and when I sync, listened to ones are removed, new ones are added. Seems pretty simple. If you have used an older iPod, partially listened to podcasts were removed as well. This is not true with the touch. Podcasts remain on the touch until you have finished with them.

How to get PO list with mark archived or not?

Hi experts,
I have a list of POs from both database and archive server using standard report ME2N but I can't distinguish between archived PO or not.
Actually if I checked the detail PO I could see if it was from archive or not, but this way takes time.
Please advise how to get list of PO with mark from archive or database.
Thanks.

hi
u can use me82

Need ideas on how to manage upgrade to legacy proc, func ...etc

We have legacy procedure, function and packages. Ex: JOURNAL_DETAIL(), a journalization procedure.
All our applications make direct calls to this object (thru DLL sometimes). We implemented a new version of JOURNAL_DETAIL, with the same signature, but the code inside depends on a new package. Bug, some application cannot be updraded to the new package at the same time, so we decide to have two function:
JOURNAL_DETAIL -- the old ond
JOURNAL_DETAIL_XXX -- the new one
But then the other application would have to be changed to use JOURNAL_DETAIL_XXX(), so we decided we dont like this.
So we decided to provice a unique JOURNAL_DETAIL() which will decide if the old code should be called or the new one, depending is the new package is installed and initialized. But since we dont want to duplicate code in one humongous proc, we decided to provide:
JOURNAL_DETAIL -- now a dispatcher to
JOURNAL_DETAILI_LEGACY
JOURNAL_DETAIL_NEW_APPL
But eventually we wiil end up having several version of the same function in our schema, winch we are not sure its a good idea. With DLL, the problem is simple, keep the same interface, but change the code in the DLL. We would like to know if there is a way to do this in Oracle.
Maybe using packages ?
Thanks.

What do DLLs have to do with what you are doing in an unstated (3 decimal places) version of Oracle?
You have provided almost no information that can be used to generate a response beyond just a wild guess.
Assuming DLL refers to a Windows-only Windows-centric design I would urge you to move your code inside the database into packages.

Is there a way to download older podcasts (i.e. - earlier than the latest podcast episode)?

Printing MANY PDFs, how to manage?

Where I work, we have teachers that receive homework via PDF. Often times, this results in *many* files being accepted.
Our secretary is trying to find a way to facilitate the printing of many PDFs so that it doesn't trash Windows resources, in a sane manner so not to flood the printer and which doesn't require manually printing each document.
I've hooked her up with Thunderbird and a plugin that wild detach the PDFs and place them into a folder, that was the easy part.
I'm thinking I may have to toss this to a UNIX system and script it; however, I wonder if anyone here may have some clever ideas on how to manage this scenario.
Thank you.

Why not combine all PDF's into a single file, and then print that?
This can be automated in several ways, but the easiest is to simply drag the files into the Thumbnails (or Pages) tab.

Need advice on how to best approach Family Sharing, multiple devices, Apple IDs, etc.

My wife and I both have iPhone 5's (soon to be 6's) running iOS 8, I have an iPad (v2) running iOS 8, and my wife just got a MacBook Air (running Mavericks, soon to be Yosemite). We also have Apple TV (v2) running the latest OS. That's five Apple devices shared between a husband and wife (not counting my two-year-old's unsupported iPhone 4 used for kid games).
We have always just used the same Apple ID for everything. However, things are changing fast. We have both upgraded to iOS 8, we will soon be getting iPhone 6's, she now has a MacBook Air that will soon support Continuity, and we will purchase iCloud Drive storage for our iPhone 6's to free up photo/video storage space from our phones. We need to rethink and reorganize how we manage these devices because my wife does not want my email, iMessages, contacts, or Safari bookmarks showing up on her new MacBook, but she would like to use the upcoming Continuity feature.
In the perfect world, we would like the following: We would like to have separate: 1) email, 2) iMessages, 3) contacts, 4) Safari bookmarks, and 5) photos/videos. But we would like to have access to: 1) each others' backed up photos and videos stored on the new iCloud Drive, 2) iTunes, App Store, and iBooks Store purchases, and 3) a shared family calendar.
Right now, using the same Apple ID on all five devices, we are able to successfully do all of the above by setting up different email accounts on each device, by designating different phone numbers and email addresses on each device, etc. However, when my wife set up her new MacBook Air this morning, she told it to import Contacts from the Apple ID, but it looks like it imported everything from an old iCloud backup of my device. How can my wife totally integrate and sync her own iPhone and MacBook Air without getting the bookmarks, contacts, etc. from my iPhone? Is there a way to do this, whether through same/different Apple IDs, the new Family Sharing mechanism, or a combination of both? Any considerations or advice that I am not thinking of?
Thanks so much,
New At This
PS - I am very computer literate and can implement complicated solutions if necessary, but I am not familiar with any cross-device sharing options or even the OS X interface at all.

here's a mockup of sorta what I'm going for:

How can I transfer my contacts, calendar items, notes etc. from one apple-id to another?

I moved from DK to the US and now I have created a US-apple-ID. How do I transfer all my contacts, calendar items, notes etc. from my DK-apple-ID to my new US-apple-ID?

Hey kristina rivera!
You will first want to export your contacts from iCloud using the following article:
iCloud: Export contact information as a vCard
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606
You will then want to log in to her iCloud account, then import the vCard file that had been exported from your iCloud account:

How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?

Like the subject line says: How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?
With the previous version of iTunes, when I plugged in my iPod, I could select the iPod, select podcasts, and manually delete episodes. With the new iTunes, I can't select individual episodes when looking at my iPod through iTunes. Is my only option to Sync? If so, why is that my only option?
This question probably has a simple answer, and I'm just not seeing it.

Rock,
I think I figured out a way to do what you want to do - which is the same way that I use Itunes with my Ipod. (My Itunes libary was destroyed last year so I can no longer auto synch my Ipod as I would lose thousands of songs).
Funnily enough, I discovered this new way of manually moving podcasts while trying to figure out what cpragman was trying to say (I never could - he must be smarter than me, as I couldn't get his method to work).
1. Open up your Itunes in your regular Library view. Choose Pocasts from the left hand side (either in the sidebar if you have that enabled, or from the little "radio" icon if you don't.)
2. Mouse to the podcast you want to place on your Ipod.
3. Right-click it. A long menu will pop up.
4. Move to the "Add to Playlist" option. As you hover, all your playlists will be visible. But at the very top will be the name of your Ipod itself (whatever you named it originally). Choose THAT name, and voila! That podcast will now copy to your Ipod and be easily available when you disconnect.
A nice feature of this method is that you can shift-click several podcasts at once and do the same thing, and all your selected podcasts will copy over (if you're like me and update your Ipod only every few weeks).
Hope this helps - let me know if it works for you!

How do you fix a phantom podcast episode that won't go away on AppleTV?

Anybody encounter this or have any suggestions on how to fix this?
In a nutshell ...
On my MacBook Pro I am subscribed to many podcasts, one of which is GFW Radio. This MacBook Pro syncs with my AppleTV, so all podcasts are on the AppleTV. My podcasts all all marked as AutoDelete. I had listened to one episode of GFW Radio on the AppleTV, and when it synced with the MacBook Pro, that episode was marked as Not New. So on the MacBook Pro, it was deleted on next refresh. But on the AppleTV, it still exists. So I get the following error when I sync the MacBook Pro with the AppleTV:
<quote>"GFW Radio weekly podcast - 05/07/2008" was not copied to the AppleTV because it could not be found.</quote>
The Phantom Menace strikes!!!
I have reset the AppleTV to factory defaults, presumably wiping it out, but it did not fix it.
I also unsubscribed from the podcast on the MacBook Pro and refreshed and synced so as to remove it, presumably, but no dice. Once I re-subscribed to GFW Radio, that phantom podcast episode was still there on the AppleTV.
Anybody know how to fix this?
Thx muchly in advance for your help!!!

I was searching for help on a similar problem and found this post. No sense in starting another one . . .
I sync some free News related podcasts to my AppleTVs every night - NBC Nightly News, MSNBC Countdown, etc. When I go to my list of Podcasts, there are podcasts listed from years ago that I no longer subscribe to (LOST Podcast, Xbox podcast, etc), and I can not find a way to get rid of these.
When I look in my podcast folder in my iTunes library, there is nothing there for these podcasts. I don't even know where the AppleTV found these, as I unsubscribed from them years before I bought my first AppleTV. I bought and hooked up my second AppleTV this weekend, and sure enough, it is finding the same phantom podcasts.
Any ideas on how to flush the podcast directory to get rid of the unwanted podcasts??
