IPod Shuffle and Podcasts

I have just bought an iPod shuffle. Is there anyway to have my iTunes consider any podcasts transfered to my iPod as "listened to." My reason for asking this is I subscribe to a number of podcasts and right now the only way I know of to clear the "blue dot" is manually (by listening to the cast on my Mac).
This would be convenient in not having to worry about having a podcast subscription suspended for not being listened to.

Yes Finally got my post answered..... I downloaded
the new 7.3 itunes and it fixed the problems with the
playlists and song orders.... YIPEEEE
BUT 7.3 broke playcounts... You win some; you lose some.

  • Ipod shuffle and podcasts appearing before normal songs

    hi i have an ipod shuffle 1 gig and i have an odd problem..
    i subscribe to some talk podcasts and i download streamlink mp3's of other talk programs and i have an odd problem when i add them to my shuffle.
    when i have the order set as the mp3 that i downloaded to play first and the podcasts to play last.. for some reason, every time i try to play the podcasts somehow skip the # order i set when putting the files in.
    I've tried the 5 r's once already i suppose i probly did something wrong and will try it again but does anyone have any ideas what i can do to fix this problem?
    I have the latest itunes and i think i have the latest shuffle bios. I just can't figue out why it's doing this.. doesn't matter what podcast or mp3's are put in from my file list in itunes, thought that could help too.. thanks in advance.

    Hi, I already have a "normal" iPod that I sync my
    entire iTunes library with. I would like to get an
    iPod shuffle and use the auto fill from playlist
    option to put songs on it. I'm just wondering if
    this will interfere with my current iPod or does
    iTunes play nice with two iPods connected?
    IF you're using Windows, TWO iPods connected SIMULTANEOUSLY is a BAD idea. Otherwise a Shuffle will play nice with another iPod...

  • HT1477 I am trying to install a new iPod Shuffle and my pc does not pick it up.  My pc is running windows 8.1 os.  I do not see that os in the list of operating systems.

    I am trying to install a new iPod Shuffle and my pc does not pick it up.
    My operating system is Windows 8.1 and windows 8 does not appear
    in the list of operating systems.

    You are referring to OFFICE 2010, not Windows XP or 7.
    And which version of Windows do you have?
    NEVER begin before you have a backup, ideally one you have tested and know works.
    You don't really install Boot Camp, the Assistant is a partition tool utility.
    You may just want Office 2008 for Mac.
    If you need Office for Windows, perhaps run Windows in a VM like Parallels or Fusion.
    Buy some backup drives and start using TimeMachine for one backup, then weekly backup with SuperDuper.
    IF there is now a partition for Windows, all you need is to buy Windows, and I would recommend Windows 7 Home Premium (retail) which is about US$149.
    Has nothing to do with free space. Office 2010 isn't to boot from. In fact, you can copy the disc to a folder (1.25GB) and run SETUP from there.

  • I tried to set up my new ipod shuffle and a error message popped up saying Ipod not found cannot update.  I can't sync my ipod now but it is showing on itunes.  What should I do?

    I bought a new 4th gen ipod shuffle and tried to sdet it up last night.  I installed the latest itunes software and started to sync my ipod, but error boxes kept popping up saying ipod not found cannot sync.  It was showing in itunes, then it would disappear, then it would come back.  I am not very good with computers so I don't know what to do.  Can someone help?

    Do you have an iCloud backup?  If you backed up your old phone to iCloud you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Erast All Content & Settings (which will erase your phone), then go back through the setup screens again and when prompted choose Restore From iCloud Backup.  However your backup won't contain everything in your iTunes library (such as your music) so you'll need to be able to sync with your computer unless you purchased everything from iTunes and want to redownload it to your phone.

  • IPod Shuffle and Windows 7

    I just purchased an iPod Shuffle and attempted to use it on my Windows 7 Beta. iTunes installs and works just fine, but as soon as I hook my Shuffle up, it attempts to sync for roughly 3 minutes and then tells me something along the lines of "Cannot Recognize Disk".
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Well, that's certainly understandable. However, once Windows 7 is actually out of Beta, this issue may continue to exist. I suppose it's a good thing that it's been discovered now while in Beta mode. I intend on notifying Microsoft about this as well.

    So, I bought the iPod shuffle and when I plug it into my mac, the option of syncing doesn't appear.  What do I do?

    Does the Shuffle appear ini Tunes at all?  If not try using a different USB port and double checking to make sure the other end of the syncing cable is firmly seated in the Shuffle.

    Hi everobody,
    Is it possible to recharge the battery of my ipod shuffle and to share musics from only an ipad? In other word, can I work without a PC? thx for your answers

    Unfortunately, you can not. Content can only be synced to the Shuffle via iTunes on a PC or Mac.

  • HT1481 How do I get rid of my music on my ipod shuffle and re enter new songs?

    How do I get rid of old songs on my ipod shuffle and re enter new songs??

    This is document lists the four iPod shuffle models and the ways to sync music to the shuffle.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1719
    The way you remove songs depends on the model (1st and 2nd gen versus 3rd and 4th gen), and the method being used to add songs.  I don't know your specifics (please provide), I'll go with one possibility...
    You have a 4th (current) gen shuffle and you use the manual method to load the shuffle, by dragging songs to the shuffle from your iTunes library in iTunes (or using the Autofill feature). If that is your shuffle model and how you load it...
    First, in the latest iTunes, the sidebar can be hidden.  To show it, go up to the menu bar, under View, and select Show Sidebar.
    To remove songs, select the shuffle in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  "Drop down" its content list, which is indented below the iPod.  Click on Music there.  Over to the right, you see a list of songs currently on the shuffle.  Select the song you want to remove, and hit the Delete key on keyboard.  Confirm action.  You can do this with one song, a selection of songs, or the entire list (by selecting Select All from the File menu). 
    If you have a 1st or 2nd gen shuffle, or you use automatic syncing (not manual loading or Autofill), please post back.

  • I just got a brand new ipod shuffle and every time i plug it into my computer it shuts down itunes. What's going on?

    Its a brand new 2 gb ipod shuffle and has never been connected to a computer before.

    It would be interesting if it could "talk" to iTunes on a different host computer..if it couldn't it sounds like it would be some type of hardware problem, and would involve a warranty replacement of the new device.....wish I had a better answer...

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The music on your shuffle will be in the iTunes library it syncs with.

  • I've just bought an album and downloaded it,went to sync it to my ipod shuffle and it doesn't appear in the album list to sync, yet it is in the music library? why is it not available to sync?

    I've just bought an album and downloaded it,went to sync it to my ipod shuffle and it doesn't appear in the album list to sync, yet it is in the music library? why is it not available to sync?

    This sounds similar to the problem where new purchases will appear in playlists, but not the main music source, suggesting that iTunes is making a hash of the indexes. Somewhat bizarrely the solution for that one seems to be to download the current free Single of the Week, maybe it will help you too.

  • Syncing Ipod Shuffle and Ipod Touch.

    I have both Ipod Shuffle and Ipod Touch. I only want certain songs on the Shuffle. How do I "weed out" the rest of the songs?

    One at a time ... in other words NOT simultaneously.

    I have a first generation ipod shuffle and the light keeps turning from orange to green and blinking back and forth. What should I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
