Ipod doesn't support podcasts??

after downloading podcasts and syncing with my ipod, an error message pops up that says my ipod doesn't support those podcast types (which were video podcasts, and i have an 80g video ipod...) and previous podcast episodes are missing on my ipod, but not on my itunes library. can someone please help?

Hmm... I wonder if maybe the podcast's producer changed some settings on their video software, rendering the episodes incompatible with the iPod. Right click on one of the problematic episodes, and choose the option to convert for iPod/iPhone. Then see if you can sync to the iPod.

  • Why ipod doesn't support SRS WOW?

    i compared my ipod nano to my old samsung yepp and the last one has better sound with WOW enhanced... disappointing !

    Samsung and Apple are two different companies. You would have to ask Samsung why they support WOW. Since Apple has not indicated that they support it (to my knowledge) it should not be a surprise that something one player does is not duplicated on another.

  • Am having problems with my Zeppelin music player and iPod classic. The Zeppelin, bought Dec '12, and the iPod, bought same time, used to work fine but now when I attach iPod to Zeppelin I get a message that says the iPod doesn't support the accesory!

    I bought a Zeppelin music player and iPod classic in December 2012, and all went well until I last synched the iPod with iTunes, and now I get a message saying that the iPod doesn't recognise the attached accessory when I try to connect it to the Zeppelin. I did recently update to the latest iTunes version-could this be the problem, and if so how do I cure it? All help appreciated.

    It's still charging when you plug it in. That just means it won't play music out the speaker. If that's what you were looking to do, they have speakers for iPods.

  • IPod doesn't play podcasts??

    Ok, so I sent my iPod to be repaired....replaced the cables....reset, restored, reformatted, re-everything over and over again. In the end it still freezes or resets about 80% of the time when I play podcasts on it. It happens at various times on various podcasts. It could happen within a few seconds or possibly a few minutes....if I am very lucky it might make it all the way through the podcast. I have worked with multiple layers of apple support, and nothing works.
    Well, it all came down last night. Basically, my support person told me that if this last reformat and restore didn't help (which it didn't), then there wasn't much they could do for me because they don't guarantee that the iPod will play podcasts. What?! Sure, I understand that they can't guarantee any particular podcast, but I am referring to any and ALL podcasts. When I hear that from Apple it means that the following must be true:
    An iPod that will not play ANY podcasts can still be categorized as fully functional and acceptable for purchase.
    I'm sorry but I find that to be unacceptable. Half the reason my wife bought me the iPod Nano as a birthday gift was so I could listen to podcasts (and we aren't talking about some slacker's blogcast...this is the NYT, NPR, etc).
    Am I missing something??

    I have found another disadvantage to using Dopi.
    I've had times when a podcast doesn't get downloaded fully: after downloading an episode of an hour-long program the podcast shows up in iTunes as being just, say, 23 minutes long. Normally you could delete that episode, click the right-pointing arrow in the line with the name of the show (NOT the line for the episode) to bring up the show in the iTunes store, and download the episode again (and again, and again, sometimes).
    If an episode doesn't download properly in Dopi, clicking on that arrow in the show name's line brings up the show's website, and often you cannot simply get a particular episode of the podcast from that website.
    This is not so much a complaint about Dopi -- not much they can do about it, I reckon -- but about the fact that we need something like Dopi at all. Feh.
    For me, it is only "Talk of the Nation - Science Friday" that I want in order, as they break up the two-hour show into segments (convenient, yet not so for the Shuffle) and often talk about what's been said in a previous segment, which for me comes later. I've dropped Dopi and now I either load just one segment of Science Friday with a few other shows, or I load all the segments and mutter under my breath when I hear references to a previous segment I'll not hear until after the current one.

  • Received error message, this ipod doesn't support this video format...

    The last tv shows I bought from itunes won't go on my ipod touch (1st gen). I'm getting an error message, this format not supported by this ipod. NO ONE is able to help me with this..any ideas?? I've reloaded all my software, etc. restored my ipod...

    Can you play them in itunes?
    Also you should have gotten 2 versions. One HD (high def) and the other SD.
    iPods can only use the SD version, since they don't have high def screens.

  • Older iPod doesn't show podcasts when syncing with new iTunes

    Although I have had my older iPod for approximately 7 years, I have never had any problems with it until this latest iTunes update. Since the update, I my podcasts are not showing up on the iPod. When I click on "sync" it completes almost immediately (in the past it has taken time for my weekly podcasts to transfer). I think this might have something to do with the new podcast app organization that is used with my iPhone and newer devices that utilizes aps. However, I use my iPod for my daily commute, and if I can't find my podasts to listen to, I am going to be VERY disappointed in Apple's latest change. I am hoping that there is an answer to this problem, but am afraid my old iPod may be be in the process of becoming outdated...
    Yes, I did scroll through my albums and artists to see if I could find the podcasts, but without success (unless I am just looking in the wrong place).
    Help!! Has anyone else experienced and/or resolved this issue?
    Thanks!

    Hi Arryla
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Take a look at the following link. It should tell you how to do what you want.
    Note the bit at the bottom as well, seeing as you are using windows.

  • Ipod doesn´t support Apple Lossless Audio Codec with high bitrates?

    Has anyone tried playing back .m4a files with bitrates in the range of 800-850 kbit/s succesfully? I have a recent 30Gb and a 4Gb Nano both with latest firmwares, but neither of them will play my files without hanging/restarting. Specifications claim it should work just fine. Help!!! I don´t dare to buy an Apple TV since all my music is in this format (works fine in iTunes/powerbook g4).

    Hey Jason,
    Does Soundtrack Pro 3.0.1 fix the problem with Altiverb?

    Why iPod Touch 4G Doesn't Support iOS7

    As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

  • Updater doesn´t support ipod

    I have installed the latest updater, but when I try to run it it says it doesn't support the ipod connected to my computer, which is a new ipod nano. Help!
    Edit:
    When the ipod is connected to the pc it always shows "do not disconnect" although battery is full.

    Hi Schnatzi,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Knowledge Base Document #60944 explains how to update your iPod software.
    Knowledge Base Document #61685 has information about the disconnect messages. I suggest not disconnecting your iPod unless that message stops. Your iPod could be updating.

  • Apple logo comes up but ipod doesn't start

    When I turn on the device the Apple logo comes up but the ipod doesn't start and go to the menus it just stays with the logo. When I hold down the play/pause on the click wheel to put it to sleep a symbol of a triangle with an exclamation point in the center comes up along with "www.apple.com/support/ipod." I tried rebooting it with Menu/select but nothing happens.

    Unfortunately, on a "classic" iPod that uses a hard drive for storage, the most likely cause is a faulty hard drive.
    You can try putting the iPod into Disk Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    If that works, connect it to the computer and run iTunes.  iTunes may prompt you to do a Restore.  This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.  If the cause is data corruption or a software issue (and the hard drive has no physical problem), the Restore should fix it.

  • I have an iBook G4 and iTunes is no longer updating. The last update is 9.2.1 but it doesn't support my iPhone or iPad. Is there anything I can do to update iTunes or is my only recourse to update my laptop?

    I have an iBook G4 and iTunes is no longer updating. The last update is 9.2.1 but it doesn't support my iPhone or iPad. Is there anything I can do to update iTunes or is my only recourse to update my laptop?

    As Niel has suggested Mac OS X 10.5 Lepaord.
    But first of all make sure that your iBook is above 800Mhz and you have at least 512 Meg of memory. (1 GB recommended)
    Please note, that if you do install Mac OS X 10.5 on your iBook, it will not allow you to install the latest version of iTunes version 11. The most recent version of iTunes that can be installed would be 10.5, which will be compatible with your iPod touch 4th gen, provided it's not been updated to iOS 6.
    Sadly you can't install any version of Mac OS X above 10.5 Leopard, as it they requires an Intel processor, which your iBook G4 does not have.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT4009 IX have an iPad version 4.3 and I had instagram install, like I was having problem I uninstalled it, but now I can't install it again, because my iPad doesn't support the new version, is there a way that I can download instagram for this iPad?

    Update your iOS.
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
