I have two podcast folders. I can't delete and redownload the old ones because they are not available any more. How can I get them into the new folder?
The problem of having 2 'Podcast' folders / menu items after adding a new podcast through clicking on a link in the browser has been addressed on the forums by instructing users to resubscribe to existing podcasts, which then appear in the new folder, and delete the old folder. This will not work for me as most of the podcasts I listen to are BBC, which vanish from the web 7 days after they were first broadcast (about which much swearing, but that's unalterable). Consequently I can't adopt this solution.
I have resubscribed to the podcasts using the link in a browser method, so that they all appear and (in theory) will download new episodes again. However, this leaves the old episodes missing. What must I do to get the episodes downloaded from the old podcasts recognised as belonging to the new subscriptions?
I found a very fast and easy solution: I selected all the podcasts in the first window, copied them using the command in the Menu>Edit (Command+C did not seem to work). I then pasted them into the new empty folder. All the podcasts already downloaded appeared. The only problem is that some podcasts did not remember which had been viewed or not, while did keep the information. I just had to re-subscribe to the ones I still wanted by clicking on button.
For some reason, the previous Podcasts folder was only recogized as a list by iTunes, this showed up when I deleted the previous folder (contextual menu). I also had to re-select which ones I wanted synced with my iPad and iPhone.
(I did make a backup of the Podcasts folder in the Finder, just in case, a bit like voodoo computing)

I can't get my audiobook download from my emai on the computer to my iPhone. Can anyone help. I am useless at understanding how all this stuff works .
Nothing has been deleted.
The Library folder is just hidden now. Hold down the Option key while clicking on Go in the Finder's menu and you'll see that you can open the Library folder.
Once opened, drag the folder to the Finder's sidebar, so that you open it more easily next time. -
I have lost my music videos they are not in my library how do i get them back
This is doing my head in as i purchased these videos. is it something to do with sync my phone. does it mean i have to buy them again. !!!!!
Check iTunes / Preferences - Devices on your computer. If you created a backup, you'll see it in the list there.
If not, according to Apple, from the iTunes Help menu...
"It’s important to make backups of your purchases from the iTunes Store. If you lose a purchased item for any reason and haven’t backed it up, you’ll have to buy it again."
So, in the future, follow the instructions here for backing up your iTunes purchases.
Backup iPhone
And backup iTunes media.

I have purchased songs from itunes on my ipad but now they are not there anymore. How can they get them back? Dont come up in songs not on this ipad and in itunes it asks to buy again
If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option -
My Macbook is not playing sound unless i have headphones in. The light in the headphone port stays on even when they are not plugged in. How can i fix this?
You might need to clean the headphone port (I was in the same situation and this worked for me). Dirt, dust, and debris accumulate in the port and eventually the computer registers the debris as headphones being plugged in. After cleaning the issue was resolved.

I downloaded movies onto my iPad to watch when I was abroad, I synchronised with my laptop and now they are not on my iPad how can I get them back?
If the shows are in fact still on the pad, they will be found in the videos app, not the music or I tunes app. Look there and see if they are still there.
If you don't see them there, go to the searchlight screen ( farthest left home page) and type in the name of one of the shows. If it is on the pad, hiding somewhere, this will find it.
If they are not there, they should not be using up space.
To get them back onto your pad, plug in and sync again. Make sure you transfer purchases first. Before you sync, take a look at the video tab in your I tunes, and check what you want and don't want synced. -

Hi there. I was downloading lectures from iTunesU. The status shows them as downloaded, however two lectures in the series are not on my computer/iPad. How do I "get" them again?
The downloaded content should be in the iTunes U section of your music app. To navigate to iTunes U content launch the music app, click more and look for iTunes U on the resource list.

This problem makes it impossible for me to sync any apple device to my itunes library. I have tried reinstalling itunes, but it still doesn't work. My computer recognises the devices, but itunes doesn't.
Suggestions?See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Next
Run this to help if it identifies the cause

I imported new pictures, but they are not in filmstrip. How can I find them?
The import went "normally" but the pix didn't appear in the filmstrip. Yet when I tried to reimport them, LR said they're in the catalogue. Where are they? How do I find them?
You only see the "Show Parent Folder" option if you right-click on a folder that has a hidden parent folder. Otherwise that option won't be there. Here's something to try. In the library module, go to the library menu and make sure the option to show photos in subfolders is checked. Then, click on the top most folder in your folder structure. Now you can scroll through the images and, hopefully, find one of those missing images. When you do, right-click on that "missing" image and choose "go to folder in library." That should put that folder in your library folder tree (I hope). Or you could click on all photographs and look for one of the missing images in the same way and try my suggestion.

I have just downloaded ios7 to my iphone4. Now none of my apps are showing as icons on my home screen. What should I do? This didn't happen when I updated my iPad.
You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.
The following article(s) may help you.

So yeah, basically ^^^^^ Please help!
call the APPLE store, even though it reconize you purchase them already, APPLE will charge you again. it happened to me. when u call them they can resend them to your phone FREE of charge. It makes no sense, i mean they know you already purchase them, then y dont they just allow us to redownload them free of charge.SMDH

Hello,
from one day to the next the white circles and the dot in the middle are gone. I could not find any setting for on/of. When I click on a location the map centers to the location.
Maybe someone knows what to do.
Thanks.
Rainergvb279: You are GREAT! Thanks! The "O" key is the solution
Best regards

I have two podcast "folders" in the Library, and system crashes when I try to Refresh
How can I remove the second listing for Podcasts from the iTunes Library - it appeared automatically when I subscribed to a new podcast and now when I try to refresh the old list (where all my podcasts were downloaded) iTunes crashes... repeatedly. Thanks.
