Ipod classic podcast

I have an iPod classic. Everything works except that video podcasts will not sync to it. The same video syncs to my wife's ipod nano. Is there something special that I need to do? This is a question I asked about 2 years ago but never got a reply.
Also, is there a way to list music by Album Artist as in iTunes? Thanks.

Double check to make sure podcasts and configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.
To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes.  This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it.  Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.

  • IPod classic podcast download problem

    How can I redownload my podcasts which disappeared the last time I synced my iPod Classic 160gb?

    I think i fixed the problem something i didn't want to do, but i tried unchecking each artist and removing them from the ipod and check them back and put them back on the ipod i also reset my ipod but none of that still didn't work so i decided to restore my ipod something i didn't want to do because i have so much music and put everything back on my ipod and that seem to work so just have to see how long it stay like that before the artwork get screwed up again which i hope not.
    so if anyone else is having the same problem with the artwork messed up on your ipod just restore your ipod, it worked for me.

  • Itunes will not allow me to add newly purchased songs to my ipod classic, i have no problems with adding free podcasts but anything that i have purchasedd when i drag it over to ipod the little red circle with line through it stops me. what has gone wrong

    i just started using this netbook for itunes at first it wouldnt let me purchase anything just free podcasts etc but i got that sorted it was just a matter of resetting the security questions because i hadnt made a purchased from this computer before. now it is allowing me to purchase no problem but itunes will not let me add my purchases to my ipod classic??? i can add all the free podcasts i want but anything that has been purchased is blocked from being added.my ipod show up in itunes but only as a summary thing i cant actually look through my music on the ipod in itunes on this computer

    Are you sure your iPod Classic is configured to sync podcasts to your device?  You'll want to double check by taking a quick look at your iPod's Podcast configuration tab in iTunes.
    To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes when it appears to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab. Now locate the Podcasts tab and select it.  Under this tab you can configure how and what podcasts are synced to your device.

    I assume you aren't receiving any error messages when you sync your iPod Classic with iTunes?

  • My iPod Classic will no longer allow me to create podcast playlists.  I've restored it twice.  What is the problem?

    My iPod Classic will no longer allow me to create podcast playlists.  It create music playlists.  I've restored it twice.  What is the problem?

    Is the problem that you can create them in iTunes, but they are empty on the iPod itself? If so, I had that problem, and the issue appeared to be that playlists that used MediaType=Podcast didn't seem to transfer. If, on the other hand, I gave all podcasts a Genre of Podcast, it worked better. In general, with the older iPod classic, I found that playlists based on MediaType didn't work that well.

  • My ipod classic will not play podcasts

    I have a 160GB iPOD classic and have been syncing successfully music, podcasts, photos and videos for many years. Originally formatted on my PC, for the last year I have only been syncing on my MAC but I haven't re-formatted the iPOD and it didn't seem to mind. A couple of weeks ago the iPOD decided it would not play any video podcasts (radio podcasts are fine). I select it to play, and after a second or two it goes back to the menu. I have completely cleared the iPOD and restored to factory settings. After re-syncing it still does not work. Movies (typically MP4 conversions from DVD and the web) all play fine. I have done this on the MAC (factory reset, re-sync) and also on the PC (factory re-set, re-sync). Makes no difference. Today I deselected all podcasts, synced, then just selected a new video podcast (a TED video as it happens) but still no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I think I have figured out the problem. Call it "Curse of the iCloud." In the settings I had "download most recent episode." That may have been the only one actually on my computer. The rest were hiding in the Cloud. The computer showed a couple of hundred episodes, long since sent packing but still hiding. If I click on the iCloud symbol it brings the actural podcast to my computer where it can sync to the ipod. I didn't really want 250 old podcast taking up space, but of course they aren't really taking up my space, only Apples, and what Apple wants, Apple gets, and to **** with the rest. I suppose I should have known all of this, but I didn't, and trying to find it out is somewhat daunting. Anyway, I've reset to download all future episodes, gone back  reloaded ones I hadn't listened to, and will see if that works. To quote that distinguished techie, Ricky Recardo, "We need some better 'splaining around here.

  • Please help! I'm unable to access content on my iPod Classic while it is connected to iTunes. The iPod itself shows up and is set to manual management, but I am unable to view or play any of the content on it (music, movies, podcasts etc.).

    I can click the tabs Music, Movies etc. but I can't see anywhere to access the files themselves, no music or movies are listed, I only have the option to 'Sync' with the iTunes, which I don't want to do as there is no content on the iTunes!!! 
    I just downloaded the iTunes program.
    Very confused, pleaseee help ...

    Here is what worked for me:
      My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

  • Podcast & Audiobook Playback Options on iPod Classic?

    I recently got a new iPod Classic (7th Gen) as an anniversary gift, but I've been having trouble with how it handles Podcasts & Audiobooks - the iPod I used to have was a couple of generations older (I think 5th Gen?).  Basically the two biggest issues I have are:
    1. Podcasts - the older iPod used to play just a single episode, and then exit back to the main menu once the episode was over (unless I queued several episodes together in a playlist).  The new iPods treat podcasts like an album, and continue playing the next track.  This wouldn't be an issue, except that podcasts are sorted in newest -> oldest order, such that it will play Episode 13, then move on to the next track which is Episode 12, and I have to stop it, go back to the menu, and select Episode 14.  Is there any way to get the order to sort ascending (changing it in iTunes didn't appear to affect the order on the iPod at all)?  Or at least an option to play only one episode at a time and not automatically cycle through them?
    2. Audiobooks - I classified my audiobooks into various genres such as "Classics", "Fantasy", "SciFi", etc. in iTunes, and on the old iPod, these genres would show up under Music->Genres in the iPod menu (alongside Rock, Pop, etc.).  This appears to no longer be the case.  Similarly, audiobook authors no longer appear in the list of Artists and audiobook titles no longer show under Albums.  It appears the only way to access audiobooks now is through the
    Music->Audiobooks menu?  And unfortunately it appears as though the Audiobooks menu only lists individual track names, and not Artist or Album?  To make matters worse, the track names are being sorted alphabetically and ignoring the Disc # & Track # metadata stored in iTunes.  Is there any way to fix any of this? 
    Any help would be appreciated!  I've poked around in the settings both on the iPod itself and in iTunes with the iPod connected, but I haven't found a way to correct any of these issues yet. 

    I've found a workaround for this problem: the Join Together v5.1 iTunes script from Doug's AppleScripts combine the segments into two large AAC files.
    Now it's OK if the iPod stops playing segments after they finish because they're hours long instead of minutes.

  • Recently, my Ipod classic no longer plays grouped consecutive podcasts continuously.

    recently, (I believe the since most recent update) my ipod classic no longer plays grouped consecutive podcasts continuously. In the past it work quite effectively.
    I checked the shuffle switches, and they were all turned off. 
    None of the threads that seem to address this issue effectively.
    Don't have this problems with my iPhone 4GS.
    Does anybody know what gives?  Not real keen on Updating Software when options and features removed.

    Did a restore without any media being put on, here are the stats, and the increase from the original posted:
    Retracts: 1                         (+0)
    Reallocs: 280                     (+64)
    Pending Sectors: 480         (+48)
    PowerOn Hours: 198          (+1)
    Start/Stops: 24856             (+50)
    Temp: Current 33c             (+6)
    Temp: Min 14c                   (+0)
    Temp: Max 54c                  (+0)
    Although the hours, and temps don't matter much I included them anyway. Here are the stats after another restore, and all the media being added (increase from original, not last restore):
    Retracts: 1                         (+0)
    Reallocs: 400                     (+184)
    Pending Sectors: 48           (-384)
    PowerOn Hours: 198          (+0)
    Start/Stops: 24861             (+55)
    Temp: Current 36c             (+9)
    Temp: Min 14c                   (+0)
    Temp: Max 54c                   (+0)
    The pending sectors went drastically down, which is awesome, lot less songs are skipping.. Except the reallocs went significantly up as well, I assume that would be due to the remaps of the pending sectors? And should I try more restores to see if that would help try to fix the problem, assuming it would be fixing desk/memory errors?

  • IPod Classic no longer syncs all video podcasts

    My iPod Classic 30 GB used to play Onion News Network and TED videos, no problem. Now I get a message when I try to sync them that says 'Cannot be played on your iPod.' These are TED videos dating back to 2009, and similarly old Onion News Network video podcasts (2010), some of which were (previously) synched and played successfully. Apple admits some video podcasts cannot be played, but in my case they were PREVIOUSLY played.
    Did they really change the firmware to make my iPod less useful?

    Hm. Well, since your iPod is already blank, try hooking it up to another computer and replace it with that library. If it works fine there, then your iPod's fine, and the problem is the iTunes and iPod software on your computer. Try uninstalling (to go control panel - add/delete programs to make sure it's gone) and then installing the newest updates. Then connect your iPod, restore, and sync. Try that first?

  • Hi I have an ipod classic.The problem I have is that the ipod seems to sync new music ok but I have a number of podcasts downloaded and they do not sync to the ipod.Any suggestions please ?

    Hi I Have an Ipod classic.My problem is that the Ipod seems to sync music ok but I have a number of podcasts downloaded to itunes but these don't sync to the ipod,(they have in the past,but no longer). Has anyone any suggestions please ?

    hi gary
    have you tried to sync your ipod ,when you click on the side where it shows your ipod?
    Click on where it shows your ipod name for example garys ipod,when it opens up the summary page click the sync box,bottom right,and see if that helps.
    In the summary page click on podcasts,click the box on sync podcast box (top),read before when the box opens and says are you sure you want sync podcasts.,theres a box underneath,which says automatically include ,make sure thats ticked.
    hope this may help madforit

  • Podcasts disappear from Ipod Classic

    I recntly purchased the ipod classic 120gb, and dowloaded a number of podcasts which I have been playing. However, yesterday I was viewing one (podcast) when the ipod froze for about 15 seconds, when I was able to go back into the menu all the podcasts disappeared except the one I was viewing.
    Can anyone, someone, explain why this has happened?????
    I love my ipod!
    I need answers.

    It sounds like you use the Sync function to update your iPod (that is the best way). There is a setting which controls which Podcasts stay on your iPod, and it's this you need to change.
    Connect the iPod to your computer. Highlight the device <your iPod> (left hand side bar) and then click on the Podcasts tab. On that tab, change the various options to the one you want. It probably says "Keep all unplayed episodes" which means it will remove a Podcast from your iPod when you have listened to/watched it.
    Change these settings to (for instance) "Keep all episodes" or "keep last x episodes". (I'm currently using my laptop which does not have my iTunes installed so I may have the actual wording wrong - but I hope you get my drift.)

  • Video Podcast on iPod Classic vs iPhone 4

    Some video podcasts will not load onto my iPod classic but WILL on my iPhone 4. I'm using iTunes 10 on a macbook. i read on this forum about converting video podcasts to iPod format, and that it doesn't always work. I'm just trying to find out why there is a difference between the iPod and the iPhone.
    THANKS

    MORE INFO:
    I have also noticed that of the 4 video podcasts I have tried to download on my iPod classic, the only one that was successful had a bit rate, total bit rate, and size in MB that was approx double of what the other three had. I also have, since my last post, tried to convert the podcasts to an " iPod version" from the ADVANCED drop down menu in the iTunes toolbar, but it made no difference.
    Any help would be appreciated!

  • Trying to add video podcasts to iPod Classic

    I'm trying to add video podcasts to my iPod Classic 160GB. I can see them in the podcast summary page get added in the sync, but I can not find them on my iPod. I have 5 TV shows added to it and can find them under Videos but when I add the video podcasts they do not show up in the Podcasts section. Is there something I can do?

    They should appear under Podcasts if they successfully synced over to the device. I assume you didn't see any error messages when you synced these video podcasts over to your device?
    To be sure, reset sync warnings on the iPod by right->clicking on it under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes and choosing Reset Warnings. Then resync the iPod.
