I don't like the New Podcast App, can I revert to listening on iTunes?

I really hate the newest version of the Podcast App. In the past, I've synced my Podcasts with iTunes and life was good. I delete a podcast and I NEVER had to see it again. I told my iPhone I wanted to see the last 10 podcasts that I downloaded and it kept 10 episodes on my phone. I opened my itunes, I chose the podcast I wanted to listen to, it showed me a list of 10 episodes, I listened to one, I'd delete it, and sync again. Life was so good.
WHY DOES THE NEW APP NOW SHOW ME EVERY BLOODY EPISODE. If I've deleted it in iTunes, it was an indication to my iPhone I didn't want to listen to it anymore and it could just go away. If I wanted to download more episodes I had that option but it didn't clutter my screen with every bloody episode ever. I didn't need to manually delete items from my list. I never ran the risk of deleting something I hadn't listened to because only what I hadn't listened to was listed. That was before the worst update to an Apple product since iTunes 11.
Life was so good back then. I want to go back. Can anyone free me of the tyrany of the Podcast App and listen to my podcast on iTunes. Or, at the very least, make the Podcast App behave the way it used to. It's sad to say that the latest update has taken the joy away from listening to Podcasts on my iPhone but it really has.

What precisely do you mean by deleting the podcast app from both the phone and Mac? I have deleted the podcast app from my phone but on my Mac in iTunes->iPhone->Apps it shows up albeit with a button labelled "Install". I've resynced 3 times and when I try to access my Podcast playlist in the Music app, I still get a message telling me that podcasts have moved to the Podcast app. I'm really sick of some of the changes Apple  has made to their software.

  • The new podcast app is using up my data plan

    The new "podcast app" is using up my data plan like crazy! Its costing me much much more money now to listen to my podcast. They want donations to keep them "free" but this is much much futher from free. What is going on! I want it to go back to the way it was. Please dont tell me about them being free on WIFI I know that. I dont live in the city so the only WIFI is never where I can get it when I use them. Even driving down the road , if I loose service the podcast stops and my bill is over the top! What can I do to make it stop!!!!!??? This is a very bad move.
    Also what is the yellow "other" on my itunes sync thing that show how much of what is using up the space on my phone? I have taken almost everything off of the phone and almost half of the space is the yellow other. I can not wipe my phone and start over I have legal text messages I have to keep for court on my phone.
    Im very unhappy with this move of Apples and others are unhappy with it too or havent caught on to it yet.
    Please change it or let us know what to do to end this issue.
    thank you
    ami
    PS, I will be contacting the the podcasts to let them know that the donations will now be going to pay for the NO LONGER FREE PODCASTS.

    This has been really frustrating me too!  I made sure the 'use data' was turned off in settings, and yet when I was listening to a podcast, it went from one that I had downloaded to one that I hadn't downloaded without stopping, so I used up a ton of data!  It was because I was 'subscribed' to that podcast, which meant every darn episode ever was appearing in my list of podcasts - you can set it to download them automatically, but I don't want to download every single podcast for some, and there's no way to easily pick and choose like there used to be (with the 'get more podcasts' button).  In the end, I've just unsubscribed from all my podcasts, and I'll go find them one by one - it's really annoying, but it seems like it's all (downloading every possible episode, which for some is a lot weekly) or downloading manually by going to the catalogue.  I miss the old podcasts.  Also, I don't think it's cooler that it's not merged with my other music anymore.  Why was that necessary?

  • With the new 'PODCAST' app how do I put podcasts in playlist

    With the new 'PODCAST' app how do I put podcasts in playlist so they play consecutively?

    I found that if I play the podcasts starting with the last one when it ends it will play the previous one automatically.

  • How do I go back to the previous version. I can't even find the back button. I don't like the new style. It may be more secure but it's not easier to use.

    I don't like the new toolbars or task bars or address bars or whatever you call them. In fact I refused to update my other computer because of the confusion the new version has caused me. I don't like the new location of the home button, I don't like having to click on the tab then go to a drop down menu to reload the tab (more clicks). And I really don't like the dark color of the top portion of the screen, it's really hard on my eyes. I don't like the blurry portion of my desktop showing through, it's confusing.

  • Can I still make a playlist of podcasts with the new podcast app?

    Can I still make a playlist of podcasts with the new podcast app?

    No, for some reason it's not included as one of the features of the Podcast App.
    If you need playlists (as many of us do), then delete the Podcast App and podcasts will return to the music app, complete with podcast playlist functionality.

  • Can I get back to the older version of FoxFire? I don't like the new one

    I don't like the new version

    It would be faster and more satisfying to change the appearance to the toolbars in 4.0.1 to what you like than to reinstall an older version.
    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

  • DON'T LIKE THE NEW CALENDAR

    I don't like the new calendar.  It doesn't show events for the day like the old one did.  You have to scroll around to find them.  Better to have them at the bottom of that day so you can see them readily.

    To see a concise list of events, tap the Search icon (looks like a magnifying glass). Without typing any search terms, you get a list of events, defaulted to the current day (or next closeset day with events in it).

    2. When these newer Thunderbirds set up they do not, unless one knows about software, leave the choice of erasing email from the carriers site. Please fix so that with the automatic NON POP setup the option page lets you not save emails on the carrier's (outside computer). FIX THIS. The automatic setup should also offer POP. FIX THIS TOO

    1. Tools menu (ALT+T) > Add-ons > get add-ons and scroll to the bottom and look on the bottom right for complete thems
    2. The default is IMAP. If you want something else specify it to the wizard. Where the wizard is aware of both POP and IMAP you are offered a choice, but nothing stops you from manually specifying the account setting.
    2a. Nothing will see the return of mail being removed from the server on download by default. To many expect their mail to stay on the server forever as a defacto backup. Rightly or wrongly the default was changed because people like me could no longer put up with the whining of people who were not happy their mail moved off the server.

  • I don't like the new itunes, how do I go back to a previous version.  I find the new version is not user friendly.

    I don't like the new itunes.  It's not as user friendly as the previous versions.  How do I go back to a previous version?

    That sounds like the difference between the new Firefox home page '''about:home''' and the previous Google Search page which has '''GMail''' at the top if you used GMail.
    You can change your home page so that it points to what you had before, which It would be something like:
    * http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
    Note on Google pages
    * They won't show GMail at the top until you have gone to GMail

    * [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm Firefox Keyword Shortcuts]
    But I don't really understand why you or anyone else would want to use such a page for a home page, it is redundant. You have as many search engines as you want in the search bar, the default search is Google.
    You can invoke '''GMail''', any search, any bookmark, any bookmarklet with a [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm keyword shortcut] .

  • TS2313 Recently downloaded the new podcast app, but does not play offline. Can anyone help.

    Recently downloaded the new podcast app, but does not play offline. Can anyone help? Thank you.

    Hey Karenfromanamosa,
    I fixed this problem by turning off the ipad and then turning it back on after 5-10 minutes.
    Hopefully then when you play a video it will start playing.

  • I don't like the latest Firefox. Can I keep the old one without problems?

    At work I have v. 3.6.19 and it is asking me to upgrade to 5.0.1. I have a brand-new iMac at home and I installed the newest Firefox just a couple of months ago, so I probably have the 5.0.1. In any case, I don't like the new one's interface. Instead of having separate reload and stop buttons to the LEFT of the url window, there's a single reload/stop button (and it seems smaller than the old ones) attached to the RIGHT of the url window. Since I have a 27" screen on my new computer, it means I have to move the mouse WAY UP TO THE RIGHT to reload a screen, which is hard on my mousing hand. That may sound like nitpicking to you, but I'm finding it to be a problem. Also, the Home button seems to have disappeared. I just don't find the ease of use to be the same as with the one I still have at work. So I guess my question is twofold: 1) can I keep the old version at work and still upgrade the Flash (as it's asking me to do as well)?; and 2) can I put an older version on my iMac at home?
    I used to work in software (although not as an engineer), and in my opinion, newer does not always equal better. A case in point, it used to be easier to return to a previous page using the top toolbar, but as the versions change the function seems to be harder to use.

    Hey paulwisc,
    If you are just unhappy with the location of the Home button, you can move it to any toolbar location that you like. [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars?s This article] will give you all the steps you need to customize the toolbar.
    Is that the only reason you want to roll back? If you have other reasons, you should consider [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/feedback leaving feedback] for the developers so that they can continue to improve the product.
    If you still want to roll back to a previous version of Firefox, just take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Since upgrading to 8.0 I can no longer print from Mapquest Classic. I an from IE. How can I fix that? ALSO I don't like the new layout. How can I go back to my pervious version?

    Since upgrading to 8.0 I can no longer print from Mapquest Classic. It's not a Mapquest problem it's a Firefox problem as I am able to print using IE. I haven't encountered any other sites problems yet but I'm sure it's to come if I don't get this fixed. I need to be able to print. How can I fix this?
    I also do not like the new layout. How can I go back to my previous version?

  • Why does search in the iTunes Store on the Mac produce different results than in the new Podcaster app?

    If I search in the iTunes Store (in iTunes) on my Mac for this word:
    msworld
    I get two Podcasts I can subscribe to.
    If I do the same search in the new Podcaster IOS app, I get no matching items as a result.
    Does anyone know why or how to solve this problem?
    Thanks,
    Alan

    Problem solved.
    It's the new Apple IOS Podcasts app, just released June 26, 2012.
    It works fine, and search above works.
