ITunes 10.2 not syncing some podcasts

iTunes 10.2 tells me that episodes of Derren Brown's Science Of... were not copied to my iPhone because they "cannot be played on this iPhone",
However the last build had copied these over happily and they played just fine...
A further weirdness was that it initially reported two episodes that could not be copied to the iPhone. When I unchecked these and synced again it decided that another episode was now incompatible, and it then repeated this process until I had unchecked all the episodes of the series.
So... before I file a bug report, can anyone else confirm they are seeing similar odd behaviour with the latest build?

Further investigation shows the podcast subscription has been renamed and the feed has changed (it is now split in three - grr) and all the episodes concerned reissued at higher/non-iPhone compatible quality.
I now have unwanted, duplicate, HD(ish) versions, but at least I now know why it was happening, though not why the warnings came one at a time instead of all together, though I suppose the new episodes might have been downloading in the background while I was still puzzling over the problem.

My itunes match will not sync properly

Mac User same thing
Hello there here is my problem. My itunes match will not sync properly. It shows a lot of songs over 100 with the icloud match status as "Waiting"
Here is what i have done
1. Reinstall the entire OS delete everything and start from scratch
2. Turn on and off itunes match.
3. Hold down the option key
4. Move my music out of the music folder clear everything out of my itunes and bing back my music.
5. Use backup copies of my music in case the music files had been corrupted.
6. Checked numerious mac community forms that report simular issues.
7. Tried another macbook pro that I have
8. My wifes account which has about 8000 songs did no have the issue. My account seems to have the issue sobeservices2. I beleive this to be account specific. My account has 11481 songs and about 100 to 100 show with the status of "waiting"
9. I get no error messages
10. I've tried multiple ISP - COMCAST - FIOS - I even tried multiple computers
11. Redid the entire os
12. My account has problems "*****s2" but my wife account does not
13. Replicated the issue on more then one computer it seems only has problems with my itunes account. Suck waiting to upload
and its not always the same songs sometimes it's different songs that it gets suck waiting to upload.
14. Removed the waiting songs and attempted again
15. Started with fresh iTunes had the server match a blank itunes folder to the point where it said "0 Songs Match" then re-added them
16. Called Apple Care and spoke with a Senior Advisor who told me he would have to escalate a ticket and he to thought I had done all the tsing possible and that it was up to the engineers to figure out a solution.
I have been working on this for about 4 weeks now. All my trouble shooting has pointed it to be an account specific issue.
Any advise from the community

Hi
I have had a similar set of issues. 8000 songs, 800 in waiting. All ripped from CD into Apple Lossless - mainly classical so most didn't match directly.
First I ripped all these 8000 songs for my father first on his laptop from his CD collection. Eventually got them all matched or uploaded to his Match account (except one) by the usual tricks people suggest (e.g. recoding as AIFF or MP3 etc, deleting, re-adding blah blah). Though of course I shouldn't really have to waste my time doing this. One song absolutely refused to upload. Tried everything - including buying a pristine downloadable version off the publisher's website. Still resolutely refuses to upload.
Anyway - main problem is now with my PC. I copied all these 8000 tracks over. Re-installed everything etc. 800 remain in "waiting" (even though they uploaded Ok on a different account). When I rip my own CDs even some common stuff (e.g. Bowie/Stones) gets uploaded instead or matched and often with one or two tracks stuck in 'waiting'.
If I then look at my IPad (with Match enabled), it will show these waiting tracks as if they were already downloaded to it (which of course they are not). If I try and play one of them it just skips over it.

How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

They need to be registered under different Apple ID's. The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up. If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset. Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device. You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before. Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.

ITunes 11 is not syncing my Outlook 2007 calendar on my iPhone 5 on a Windows 7 PC

ITunes 11 is not syncing my Outlook 2007 calendar on my iPhone 5 on a Windows 7 PC.
I have tried a number of things such as:
Repairing the outlook.pst file with scan pst.exe. This did not work.
Uninstalling all apple software on the PC and then reinstalling it. This did not work.
Turning addins off and on in outlook. This did not work.
Changing outlook.pst files. This did not work.
Replacing iPhone content with content on PCM. This did not work.
Restoring the iPhone does not work.
Nothing works.
I have been working on this issue for a couple of days. It is driving me crazy. I am inches from formatting my hard drive.
Everything worked fine until the most recent iTunes update.

Same here. Spent about an hour trying various solutions to similar problems on other forums before discovering this one, which matches my symptoms exactly. iPad doesn't have this issue, only iPhone 4S.
My iTunes Match renews in two days. This is about the umpteenth disappointment with the service. I almost certainly won't be renewing now.

Why won't iTunes 11.0.1 sync my Podcasts to my 3rd Gen iPod Touch on IOS 6.0.1?

Why won't iTunes 11.0.1 sync my Podcasts to my 3rd Gen iPod Touch on IOS 6.0.1? I'm running iTunes on my MacBook with Mac OSX 10.6.8. I've checked to make sure in iTunes that the Podcast Sync box is checked and it is. I've tried checking communities and tried several suggestions and nothing seems to work for me. Everything else syncs except Podcasts. I can't figure it out. Any suggestions to get Podcasts syncing to my iPod Touch again? Thanks!

One other step I've tried was removing and completely reinstalling the playlist to the iPod. That cleared up the problem for about two days.

Hey becky612,
Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPod nano is not recognized in iTunes after updating. The following troubleshooting articles may provide a resolution based on your symptoms:
Windows
iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
iTunes reports that "iTunes cannot recognize this iPod at this time"
Thanks,

ITunes Match will not sync songs in a playlist to iPhone

iTunes Match will not sync all songs in a playlist to my iPhone. All songs have iCloud status of matched, uploaded or purchased, and are 128k bitrate or higher. How can I get iTunes match to sync this playlist properly?

I rang applecare with this issue and the way it was resolved was as follows:
To make sure iCloud is up to date:
1. In iTunes on the computer select "Update iTunes Match" from the Store menu and wait until it finishes.
To refresh the data on the iPhone:
2. Power the iPhone down and back up again
3. Settings > iTunes & App Store > iTunes Match > Off
4. Launch the Music app to verify Match is off
5. Power the iPhone down and back up again
6. Settings > iTunes & App Store > iTunes Match > On
7. Launch the Music app and givit it time to update (probably best done when you have a Wifi connection).
Hope this helps

Itunes 7.5 not syncing music folder but podcasts sync fine

Hello,
I'm hoping someone can offer some advice. Since upgrading to iTunes 7.5 and Vista, I've noticed that my iPod classic and iTunes are no longer syncing the Music folder in my library. I've been able to repeat the following behavior:
- music files purchased from the iTunes store do not automatically update my iPod. I can, however, drag those files to my iPod manually.
- music files from non-CD external sources do not automatically update my iPod. I cannot drag those files to my iPod.
- files in the Podcast folder behave as I would expect. They update my iPod whenever I connect with no intervention required on my part.

I had a similar problem with my iPhone 4S. First time syncing all my music seemed to be transferring. Then, when sync had finished, the iPhone reported that 416 tracks could not be transferred and I should see iTunes for details.
iTunes had no details to give of course and when I tried another sync nothing happened to the tracks that were missing. In fact, when beginning to sync the iPhone would report 11.9GB of music on the phone and then at the end of sync that would drop to 7.3GB, which accounted for the 416 tracks missing.
Also, when I clicked on the phone in the Devices Tab, and opened up the triangular arrow, then clicked music, I could see the missing tracks greyed out and having the sync symbol at the start of the columns.
Eventually I figured out how the fix this. It seems to be something to do with a corruption in the ID tags or the modification dates. I changed the genre of all the affected tracks to 'Other' (they were set as various things before - Other just changed them to something else.. it is the change that is important).
Then all the tracks transferred across fine.
Weird!
Hope this helps...

Sync some podcasts, not others?

I have just added two podcasts to itunes windows, and they download fine to itunes on my xp pc, but they do not Sync to my ipod (touch). If I drag/drop them to the ipod, it acts like it is copying them, but I do not see them in the ipod anywhere.
I have other podcasts that work fine, but they are both pay-for through audible. These two that I just added are my first 'free' ones that I found on the net.
one is:
commoditywatch.podbean.com/feed
the other is:
feeds.feedburner.com/ETFDigest-Public
Any ideas?

OK, i figured out how to do it. here's how:
when i plug my iPhone into my computer, there is the menu on the left that shows both the contents of my iTunes library AND my iPhone. i had been dragging and dropping from my iTunes library to my iPhone and it only worked for some. what i did that worked was:
1. clicked on my iPhone on the left side of the menu. that brought up a screen on the main part of the window that has tabs at the top that read "Summary Info Ringtones Music Photos Podcasts Video".
2. I clicked on "Podcasts". Then, all i had to do was...
3. Click "sync 'you choose' episodes of 'all podcasts'" and then
4. Click apply at the bottom of the screen.
that worked for me. hope it works for others that are stuck.

Itunes 11 not syncing all podcasts

Hello,
I've been noticing I have fewer and fewer podcasts on iTunes 11.1.3.8 syncing to my iPhone 4S on ios 6.1.3.
I have a playlist for new podcasts and it keeps getting shorter ...
I thought podcasts were shutting down as happens when life takes over for the hosts.
I looked at the podcasts from the sidebar and listed all unplayed podcasts and it would seem that itunes has just decided not to sync half of the podcasts it's downloading.
These playlists have worked since I got my iPhone 4S about two years ago?
Is anyone else having this problem ?
Should I downgrade to Itunes 10 ?
and have you found a way to fix this new feature in iTunes?
Thanks for your time,
Bobby

so it would seem that Apple decided I only wanted the most recent episodes instead of all episodes
iTunes was skipping most of my podcasts if there was more than one posted since the last time I ran iTunes.
Itunes was downloading a bunch of podcasts every day ... and skipping any that had multiple added episodes between checks.
Settings Check ...
Check for new Episodes Every Hour - Yes
I had it set to download all Episodes, but installing Itunes 11 changed it to download Most Recent only ...
will this fix it ?
Now it's downloading a carp load of podcasts to my computer ...
changing default settings is one thing ...
changing my settings without warning me is kinda frustrating ...
lets see if this works
