Issues with syncing podcasts

Okay, so if I listen to a podcast on my phone and then sync it to my PC, after syncing it marks it as new again on my phone. It's as if it forgets the changes that have been made on the phone.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong? I have no 'replace info on iPhone' boxes checked as far as I can see.
Cheers.

And while we are on the subject of podcasts...
When you go to iPod and look at your list of podcasts there is a link to get more episodes.
When you click that it takes you to the iTunes store and lists the episodes. But its so dumb it will show you episodes that are sitting on the phone!! So you absent mindedly download the same episode again.
Why can't it at least check what you have on the phone and indicate those that are already on the phone like it does for Apps?
Oh, I know I'm supposed to go the pointless gesture of submitting feedback... sigh.

Since this first message, the "Other" space has increased exponentially. The first time, after the "restore", it increased to over 9 GB. Later, I tried a minor restore again, and now it's over 10 GB. I've seen someone suggest that text messages are to blame. If my text messages are suddenly taking up 4 GB of space, I think we've got bigger problems.

Issue with sync error: Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action.

Hi, i have just recently started having an issue with Sync on my desktop. My associated Android and Mac Laptop do not experience any issues when attempting to sync, but the desktop constantly gives the same error. I have tried unpairing the desktop, clearing all files, restarting and then adding the desktop to sync once again, but the error persists.
All of the bookmarks on the desktop have vanished, but are still in my sync data and have no problems being viewed on the other paired devices. This also tells me that the issue isn't the sync server and is something unique to the desktop machine.
I am hoping that this won't require a reinstall, but if all else fails, it is an option. I will try to attach a log file once i have submitted the question.

I agree. Too many issues lately with sync errors and flash crashes. I'm going back to Google Chrome for a few months. Don't have time to be bothered with the nonsense and slow fixes.

Issues With Syncing With Outlook Calendar, Please Help...

Windows Vista
DM 6.0 (latest Version)
BlackBerry Bold 9000 4.6 (Latest version of 4.6 before it came 5.0)
Outlook 2007 Calendar
I am currently have a Intellisync Issue with syncing with my Outlook Calendar.
When I try to go and set it up, it asks me which way I would like to sync (two ways, from BB to outlook, from out look to BB)
When I click on next, this error message comes up. Then the program just crashes and then I get back to the DM 6.0 software.
Anyone can give me pointers on trying to fix this.
Thanks!

FIRST click on “reset settings” (if it is grayed out and does not allow you to reset; just go to next step) Click on Configure settings; check off calendar; as soon as you check it the next screen just pops up It says select a device application; then scroll and select Microsoft Outlook; Click Next and then pick which way you are going to sync If it is the first time just use One way sync from outlook to device. Click next; Click transfer only future items selected; click next then finish; Should see the final screen with top box out of three checked off. Click ok Click sync at bottom right of page. I found that if I went to slow (since I was making this sheet) that I would get the error message sometimes. I would just start over; FIRST ALWAYS RESET SETTINGS; then just follow all the steps again . Then should sync Once it is finished you will be back where you started from It is a good idea to click on Reset settings now before you close out. When you go in again click follow the steps from the top of the page. FIRST click on “reset settings” (if it is grayed out and does not allow you to reset; just go to next step) Click on Configure settings;

I am having multiple issues with syncing my iphone calendar and outlook There are often 1 hour time differences in the entries on the 2 devices and sometimes events that have been amended are not updated on iphone I mostly enter items on my laptop

I am having multiple issues with syncing my iphone calendar and outlook calendar on my laptop
I mostly enter the original items on my laptop

This sounds like an error in Time Zone support. The time zone needs to be the same in Outlook as well as the phone.

Still having issues with my podcast feed in iTunes

I am still having issues with my podcast feed. The podcast is not updating in iTunes yet I can see some of the new episodes through an alternative RSS.
My podcast feed is
http://feeds.feedburner.com/SosChurchStockholm.
Not sure what I am doign wrong.
Thankful for any help in this regard.
Thanks

I'm afraid I can't give you an easy answer. The Store has not updated since the episode of 10th November, but the later episodes appear when subscribing and there doesn't appear to be any problem with the feed.
The Store does appear to go through sticky patches sometimes and take a long time to update some podcasts; it will probably catech up eventually and I'm afraid that there isn't really much you can do about it. You could try emailing Support ad podcasts 'at' apple.com, but I suspect you will get a form answer telling you how to add episodes (which you already know).

Issue with synced videos

I have a 120 GB Classic, and some of the videos I have synced do not play completely. The iPod lops off the last minute or two of each file. It's not all the files, just certain ones.
Rebooting/resetting the iPod didn't work.
Deleting and reinstalling the files in iTunes AND the iPod, then re-syncing, in iTunes didn't work.
Resetting the "end time" in EACH file didn't work.
I'm out of ideas. Anyone else care to take a crack at it?

Okay, I don't know if this will help anyone else, but I figured out MY issue at least. It turns out it wasn't an issue with the iPod at all, it was an issue with the programs I was using to convert.
Apparently, there is a SLIGHT difference between an straight MPEG4 format and an iPod format. There were two different settings in my programs. One for an MPEG4 and one for an iPod (and before anyone asks yes I did try to use the "convert to iPod" function in iTunes, and it said it was already in the proper format).
Once I re-converted the files into the "iPod" setting they all worked just fine. So I guess if you are converting home movies, etc. for your iPod, double checkyour programs. There may be a seperate setting for iPods.
Hope this helps.

Latest 12.1.1.4 itune updates has issues with syncing to iPhone 6 Plus

I was one of those folks wary of upgrading to iTunes 12 at first but once I did I actually liked it. I especially liked the fact that my frequent syncing problems seemed to have gone away.
Sadly, these problems came back with 12.1.1.4. For the life of me, the latest iTunes version would not recognize my iPhone 6 Plus or it did but when you tried to apply a sync, it lost visibility of my phone.
In exasperation I tried to get the older version from the Apple Website but for reasons that boggle my mind, they no longer had the 64 bit version of 12.0.1. Only the 32 bit version which would not install on my 64 bit Windows 8 OS.
I was able to find a 64 bit version of 12.0.1 on some other site I found while googling (and this is why I have a virus checker. :-P) and re-installing that worked great. As soon as I ran it, it recognized my iPhone and I could sync like a fiend.
Has anyone come across this issue with 12.1.1.4? I am staying pat with 12.0.1 until Apple fixes the issue.
I know that bugs will happen in software but given the level of importance of syncing ones phone, this really is a feature that needs to be rock solid. Not only that, but the older versions of the software really need to be properly available on the Apple Web site.

Hello Mirochi,
I am sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone 6 Plus. If you continue to have issues with a looping Trust notification, you may want to try resetting the Lockdown folder, as outlined in the following article:
iTunes: How to reset the Lockdown folder - Apple Support
If you have further issues with your iPhone not being recognized in iTunes, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in following article helpful as well:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
Sincerely,
- Brenden

Continuing issues with two podcasts...

I am back to having issues with posts not being visible in iTunes...
The feeds are:
feeds.feedburner.com/SosChurchStockholm
and
feeds,feedbruner.com/JohannesAmritzersPodcast
And they do not validate when trying to verify them through feedvalidator.org.
Again, thankful for any help that I can get on this.
Thanks.
/Peter

Both feeds work as would be expected. However both have some episodes which do not have 'enclosure' tags containing the URLs of the media files, and as these are seen as not having any playable media by iTunes it does not display them.
For example in 'Johannes Amritzer's Podcasts' the episode 'Signs of Hope' has the URL of a media file in the 'link' tag but this won't do you any good. So you need to do for that and similar episodes something that you did with others to make them iTunes-compliant but didn't do with these.
The FeedValidator errors are not serious but should be addressed. In SOS Church Stockhom, in line 84 you need Jan not January (though it doesn't seem to upset iTunes) and there are other similar cases; and your duration in line 146 should be 1:25:15
In the other feed Christianity is a sub-category, not a category - see
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#categories
Similar points about the dates, and you have an incorrect day of the week. Not having a guid tag isn't fatal but it's preferable to have them as elsewhere.

I am having issues with syncing my calender and contacts

Issue with syncing music.

Hi again, New problem
This time after getting Itunes to read the contents of my iPhone, it willnot sync my music.
Apps, Photos and Videos sync but music and ringtones won't.
All my songs are checked boxed to sync, under sync music entire library isselected (around 7.5gb) and The iPhone knows they are all there, it even showsthem all there in blue on the capacity bar. but as soon as I hit sync, it goesthrough the steps, backing up etc. BUT when it gets to the determining tracksto sync, it doesn’t sync any music and the sync is then completed and mycapacity bar at the bottom of the summary page has no blue audio at all, can'teven Sync one song or ringtone.
Now to recap, I had recently had an issue with my iTunes not reading thecontent of my iPhone 4. I bit the bullet and downloaded iFunbox even though myiPhone is not jailbroken, and navigated through to remove the itunesCDB file, ithen had to remove all content from my iPhone as all my stuff was coming up asother in the capacity bar. so I manually deleted all my music, photos etc.
So I am assuming that I must have deleted a wrong file or folder in theresomewhere for now I can't add any music.
I have removed all music from Itunes and manually added them back in butagain. no such luck.
Any help would be much appreciated and thanking you in advance.

can anyone help with this please? im at my wits end trying to make this work.

Issues with new Podcasts application

I've got a few major frustrations with the new Podcasts application compared to the existing functionality.
1.     It doesn't remember the speed setting - every new podcast it plays (even a new episode in the same podcast feed) sees the speed revert to normal. I listen to 99% of my podcasts at "2x" faster speed. This is a major pain and means having to click in a handful of times just to set the preference again. Ideally I'd love so you can set the speed on a per podcast basis, but I'll live with it just remembering the speed that was being used.
2.     Using the headphone button to pause and then unpause sees the "Music" program start back up, and not the Podcasts application that you are listening to.
3.     How do you get it to remove listened to podcasts? I don't want to continue to see them once they are played.
Thanks
Greg

This is really bugging me too. The podcast app hasn't got that many tasks, but one major one of them is reminding which episode is played and which not. If this isn't working properly, I would say: mission failed!
today I noticed that with various podcasts over 100 ep. were marked unplayed, while last week I set them all to played (again) because I just wanted to start over.
Anyone else having this issue? Or maybe someone knows a solution?

ITunes 11/iPod Nano issues with syncing

I just updated to iTunes 11 after recently getting a new 16GB Nano. I wasn't having any trouble syncing my iPod until I downloaded the new iTunes. Now it keeps getting stuck on the second track that it's attempting to sync (track 2 of 345, e.g.)

every since I bought a windows 8 computer, having same issue; if I stop; restart it will get one more track, but I have over 20000 tracks; I even manually converted all 22000 tracks from mp3 to m4a and still didn't fix. it would take days or months to sync 22000 songs manually this way. If you search online, there are free alternatives to itunes now to sync your ipod and I think I may be leaving itunes if the issue isn't resolved in next week or two. I am seeing the official response from apple seems to be they have no intention at this time to make itunes compatible with windows 8.

Having issue with Syncing Events from Iphoto to Apple Tv

All of a sudden I have multiple events of the same title but different amount of photos when i try to sync my photos to apple tv. Iphoto is fine, nothing is changed but when I go over to itunes to sync I see like 10 different Events with same name. EVERYTHING is multiplied but there is no rhyme or reason to it. !!!!! Apple has done some system/app updates but they are so frequent that I don't ever pay attention to what is being updated I just click to allow the process. I believe this occurred after one of the updates, I have 2 Apple TV's AT1 and AT2. AT2 is a nightmare to begin with because it was constantly getting kicked off the network but now that isn't the issue. Now it isn't showing current syncs which doesn't make sense because I thought this one streamed everything directly. Either way---APPLE TV is having issues and I can't get my EVENTS straightened out, HELP!!!!!

I've also noticed this started happening... Its something with iTunes, because both my old Apple TV's and my iPhone and iPad all show multiple events for the same event... Lots of them! So many its hard to tell what to sync now. When I click on any of my devices photos tab in iTunes they are all exactly the same. Not sure how to fix it...

Issue with syncing bblink calendar + group events calendar into outlook 2003

Had a BB Curve OS 7, and I was able to sync my default calendar AND my BBM groups calendars in one single sinc.
Now, I have the Q5 OS 10.2.1 and I can not find for the life of me, how to sync my device calendars (personal and BBM Group Events calendars) onto my pc using Outlook 2003.
Called my carrier and they don't even know what to tell me. Can someone point me in some direction please!
PS I would also accept a solution using a cloud calendar (Gmail, Outlook.com...) I just want ALL calendars to be visible from my PC with one combine calandar view.
2014-02-22 UPDATE: Just installed BBLink 1.2.3, same issue.... No solution yet!

The OS7 calendar sync ONLY sync's the default calendar. Unless you merged your BBM group calendar entries (you would have had to move them to the default calendar using a special, and little known, documented procedure) into your default calendar you couldn't have had the BBM group calendar sync'd.
Regardless, the BBM group calendars will not sync to Outlook in BB10.
