Ipod nano not downloading podcasts

My ipod was downloading podcasts no problem, but since the last updater it is still downloading cd's but for some reason is not downloading any of my selected podcasts. the podcasts are showing in my library. thx

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
There has been another updater since this post. Have you installed that?
Also, connect your iPod to the computer. When it appears in iTunes go to edit-->preferences. Click the iPod tab. Click the podcasts tab under that. Make sure it is set to automatically update all podcasts (onto the iPod). Click OK.
See if it works now.

Why isn't my ipod nano not getting podcasts after I switched to Windows 8

My old computer died recently, so I switched to a laptop that runs Windows 8. I downloaded itunes on to it. I can see the new podcasts download at the top of itunes, but these new episodes don't show up on my ipod. When I click on My Ipod, the sync button on the bottom doesn't work. I also cant find the bar that I used to use at the top to disconnect my ipod.
I've tried to remove all the apple software and reinstall, but I get the same results.
Please help, as now my ipod is useless without being able to download new podcasts.
Thans in advance

Try a manual install, as outlined in the link below.

Ipod Nano lack of Podcast menu

My iPod nano has no podcast menu. I just got it yesterday and it has them ost recent update but has no podcast menu. I have tried downloading podcasts but they don't appear in any menu. Any solutions?

1. Have you checked Music>Podcasts? (You may have to scroll down a little to see it).
2. Are you sure the podcasts are on your iPod? Go to Edit>Preferences>iPod>Podcasts>then make sure the appropriate settings are enabled.
3. Check for the artists of the podcast in the Artists section of Music. They show up there if they are on the iPod (although personally I don't like that).
Post back with results and I hope this helps!

I recently upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5 and now my iPod Nano is not recognized in iTunes. I also upgraded my iPhone 5s to iOS 7.1. i Tunes on my computer does recognize my iPhone. What is the problem with my iPod Nano not being recognized?

I would think, Twins1995, that if we are having the problem, others are as well. Hopefully, Apple will shortly issue a follow-up software release to fix the problem. Or is that just wishful thinking on my part.
It would be helpful, if there were some kind of work-around in the interim, so we can use our devices. Pretty frustrating when you consider that all of the hardware and software is produced by Apple.

Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

It'll guide you through troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue and get your computer to recognize the iPod nano again.

My iTunes is not downloading podcasts automatically.

Only one of my podcasts is not updating and I can't figure out why. It is Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram daily podcast. I have to manually search the iTunes store to download it but it doesn't give a brief synopsis like all the others. I have already sent an email to Living on the Edge to see if there is any reason from their end. Does anyone have a solution for this?

In the latest version of iTunes (v12), you might see an exclamation point near the podcast. This might mean that iTunes has decided you have not listened to the podcast recently and has stopped downloading podcasts automatically. The way around this is to view the podcasts in the "Podcasts" mode, not the episode list mode. (See right hand of iTunes for how to list podcasts, above the list).
Once viewed in Podcast mode, you will see the exclamation point again and you can see the problem.
This feature is terrible for several reasons.
1) It's wrong. I have been listening to the podcast on my shuffle. Are shuffles no longer supported?
2) You have no clue what the exclamation point means in list mode. No tool tip, etc.
3) It should bring a pop-up stating the issue when you try to refresh said podcast automatically. If I am trying to refresh a podcast, I want to download it. Shouldn't the program tell me at that point that it is not downloading podcasts?
This is user interface "fail" of major proportions. The iTunes team needs a refresh!

Just bought a brand new ipod nano and downloaded an audiobook borrowed from the local library. The book is there and playing but, I cannot hear anything. What am I doing wrong?

Does the same file play normally in iTunes? Do other audiobooks play normally on the iPod?
How does "borrowing" work? Does it require use of another app, other than iTunes, to get it on the iPod?

Ipod nano not recognized by itunes and won't charge

Ipod nano is about 3 months old, worked fine before with itunes, but now ipod doesn't start itunes, doesn't show up in finder, and doesn't charge.
I have switched usb ports, reset the ipod, downloaded itunes 6. I downloaded ipod update, but computer doesn't recognize ipod so it isn't updated. I tried "restore", but again not recognized. I tried Isync but it can't find ipod.
Do I need a new cable that attaches ipod to computer?

Hello,
The cord might be the case, but first, try these suggestions:
Try putting your iPod into disk mode, then try connecting it to your computer again...
<a href="How to put your iPod into disk mode</a>
Do you have a wall charger? If so, then try connecting your iPod to that, and does it charge, or not?
Have you checked this link out?:
<a href="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60941">iPod doesn't charge correctly
Does your iPod appear in "My Computer"? If so...
iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes
If not...
iPod missing in "My Computer" or in iTunes
Post back on what happens when you try these things out. I hope this helps!

Ipod nano not playing audiobooks for more than one minute at a time

Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I stopped using it after I couldn't play an audiobook for more than a minute before it stopped. A friend thought she had fixed it, but I downloaded another audiobook to the ipod nano and it did the same thing...played for a minute and then turned off. I want to take it with me on a 8K walk, but it is discouraging.

No there is no multi-select for creating SQL-Loader scripts.
You can either create them separately or create them all and
then discard the one you do not need.
