ITunes no longer shows podcasts played from iPod

It's just recently that I can no longer see which of the podcasts that I've already listened to on either of my two shuffles (2nd and 3rd gen). Also I used to be able to delete a "listened to" podcast in iTunes and it would automatically delete it from the iPod listing as well. Now I have to glance back and forth between iPod and iTune to determine which and been hear and which have been deleted. Previous ability to see "listened to" podcast from an iPod was much more user friendly than current version.

Just found out. You select the podcast page on your iPhone 4. You drag your finger, from right to left, over the screen, just like you do to delete e-mails. The delete option will present itself. Touch the delete button and confirm. The podcast will be deleted.

  • ITunes no longer shows 'Podcasts' item under iPhone device section.

    Stats:
    iPhone 4 (32GB)
    iOS version 4.3.3
    iTunes for Windows 7 (64-bit) Version 10.3.1.55
    I have iTunes set to manually manage my music and podcasts. Previously I had done this by clicking on the "Podcasts" item under the iPhone device section. Here I would delete podcasts I had previously listened to and drag new podcasts from the "podcasts" item under the Library section. As of today, when I connect my iPhone to my computer, it no longer lists a "podcasts" item under my iPhone in the Devices section.
    Now I can't fine a place to delete old podcasts. I also do NOT want to use iTunes sync function for podcasts. Anyone else having this issue?

  • Newest Itunes does not sync podcasts back from  ipod, plays=o so podcasts never deleted

    Windows 8, ipod shuffle, newly downloaded itunes.
    I have specified delete after played.
    If I look at the podcasts on the shuffle, it correctly says the number of plays.  But if I look at the podcast list via computer, it says, for instance "two unplayed' where I have actually listened to both.
    Someplace I saw the they get deleted in 24 hours but the ipod count never does get updated to the computer.
    I have made a smart playlist where genre=podcast and plays>0  and it returns none.

    Looking further into this sync Podcasts problem, I found the answer. Go to Store, sign out and then sign back in. Solved!  Have had this problem since 11.2; drove me nuts!  Sign out and back in worked!

  • Since an update about a month ago, iTunes no longer shows which songs on an album I've previously purchased. Anyone know why?

    Somce an update about a month ago, iTunes no longer shows which songs on a particular album I've previously purchased. Does anyone know why? For example, I purchase a number os songs fro Glee individually. When a new compilation album comes out, iTunes used to indicate which ones I've already purchased. Now it doesn't.

    you could use this script:
    Track Down Purchases 
    This script will examine each track in a selection of tracks or a selected playlist to determine if it was purchased from the iTunes Store and then copies it to a discrete playlist named for the person who purchased it, eg: "Steve Ballmer's Purchased Music". Recognizes song, video, and audiobook purchases. Purchaser information is gleaned by examining the track's file, which, depending on file location and access speed, can take as long a second per track.

  • ITunes no longer updating "last played" after signing up for Match

    The subject says it all. Aftter signing up for Match and going through the whole upload/download dance, iTunes no longer records "Last Played." Other fields, like play count, might be effected too, but haven't check. Anyway to get this feature back? I use it a lot.

    This subject has been discussed in-depth on this forum. A search will turn up multiple already-existing threads.
    Yes, last played dates from iOS devices do not sync back to iTunes. This is a bug that has not been fixed yet by Apple.

  • Music does not sync properly when updated to latest version.  Can see computer but can't play from ipod

    Music does not sync properly when updated to latest version.  Can see on computer but can't play from ipod.

    Hope this helps...
    I was having the same problem where only 1.7GB of 10GB of selected music would sync so I decided to start fresh.  The following steps worked for me:
    1.  Open itunes and connect iphone 5 if not already.  Uncheck all playlists, artists, etc. till nothing is checked to sync.  Then uncheck the sync music box so that all music will be removed from the phone.  Sync iphone
    2.  Eject device. Quit itunes (don't just close). unplug iphone.
    3.  Restart imac, macbook, or PC.
    4.  Restart iphone.
    5.  Now after power up, restart itunes then plug in iphone, check sync music and select music to sync.  Sync iphone
    6.  It worked for me!!!  Good luck.

  • I'm missing a song in my main library that shows and plays from recently ad

    I just imported the Stones 'Shine a Light' CD and one of the songs shows and plays from the "recently added" list but doesn't show or play in the main library.
    Anybody know what's up with that?

    You could also select the song in the Recently Added playlist, control-click it and select "Show in Playlist" and choose Music. It will show you where the song is in your library. Perhaps the track has a guest artist on it and you need to alter the ID tags so that it will sort with the rest of your album.

  • HT1660 can iTunes Playlists be exported and played from a USB drive or an SD card in Ford Sync ?

    can iTunes Playlists be exported and played from a USB drive or an SD card in Ford Sync ? I've been racking my brain trying to get playlists from itunes onto a flash drive and/or SD card to play in Ford Sync. It seems the playlists are "empty" and not associated with any corresponding music files. Sync responds saying "playlists are empty" ?
    The only "work around" I have been able to do is create separate folders on the flash , and name the folders for each corresponding  playlist and copy and paste the appropriate music into the appropriate folders. The limitation being Sync can not recognize folders by voice commands. It recognizes voice commands for playlists, but apparently NOT iTunes playlists ??
    Help

    My script LocaliseM3U should do something similar in Windows.

  • Just downgraded back to iTunes 10.7 and copied music from ipod classic to itunes using houdini, but how do i copy the playlists from the ipod when itunes says that my ipod has been synced to another itunes library?

    Just downgraded back to iTunes 10.7 and copied music from ipod classic to itunes using houdini, but how do i copy the playlists from the ipod when itunes says that my ipod has been synced to another itunes library?

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:
    Your calendars are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

  • Put latest Itunes system on twice and itunes no longer recognises my ipad or ipod. any ideas?

    Put latest Itunes system on my computer (Windows XP latest upgrade before windows stopped supporting) two times now but itunes no longer recognises my ipad or ipod. Will recognise one Ipod touch but nothing else. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the suggestion. The Ipad 2 is, so is the ipad 1 (can only go to OS5 as you know) The Ipod touch is but the ipod nano I cannot check as the system will not recognise it to use itunes to check the latest update. The computer is recognising the units in the Explorer area, it is just Itunes will not.

  • I can no longer properly sync info from iPod to iTunes.  Did iTunes change?

    I have always been able to sync my iPod to iTunes.  It updated number of plays, date last played, ratings, etc. from the iPod to iTunes.
    I can no longer do this.  I was on the phone with Apple Support for over an hour...kept getting put on hold while the technician searched for answers...and finally a "senior advisor" told me that it's impossible for information like this to be transferred from the iPod to iTunes.  They're on "different" counting systems.  This is amazing to me, because it's worked beautifully for years, but now this won't work.  Information will transfer from iTunes to iPod, but not from iPod to iTunes.
    I don't understand what happened.

    The "expert" is wrong, partially.  You must be using automatic syncing in order for iTunes to keep the "supporting data" (such as ratings and playcount) in sync.  With automatic syncing, it is iTunes's  "job" to keep the iTunes library on the computer "in sync" with the library on the iPod.  You tell iTunes to replicate either the entire iTunes library on the iPod (if it will fit) or a defined subset of the iTunes library on iPod, and iTunes keeps all data for that media content in sync between iTunes library and iPod.
    However, if you use the manual method to load content (drag and drop items on the iPod in iTunes), with the Manually manage music (and videos) setting on the iPod's Summary screen, THEN the iTunes library on the Mac is separate from the library on the iPod.  iTunes just loads the media files on the iPod and then "forgets" about it.  You can delete songs on the computer, and they stay on the iPod because iTunes doesn't care.  In this case, iTunes also does not care about the supporting data, so things like ratings and playcount are not synced back to the Mac.  Afterall, that song on the iPod may not even exist in the iTunes library anymore.  It's possible that NONE of the song on the iPod are in the computer's iTunes library.

  • Itunes no longer authorised to play 50 songs on my Ipod!!!!

    Very confused I plugged in my Ipod to charge and I got a message:
    THis computer is no longer authorised to play purchased items that are on the ipod, would i like to authorise this computer for items purchased from itunes store.
    If you do not authorise 50 songs will be removed from ipod.
    When I click authorise i get Error we could not complete your itunes store request An unknow error occured (-42408) There was an error on itunes store please try later, but itunes store is working fine ?!
    Help. I haven't changed any settings i just want my songs that i have paid for.

    Sarah, try this.
    Eject your ipod. Close itunes. Restart itunes withOUT your ipod connected. See if you can play one of those purchases in itunes.
    If so, you can probably connect the ipod and have it work properly. There seems to be some bug where if the ipod gets plugged in and that opens itunes, the error 42408 happens. But if itunes is started BEFORE the ipod is connected, it's OK.
    Good luck!

  • Ipod not in dropdown list and itunes won't play from ipod after 8.1download

    ever since I downloaded 8.1 itunes my ipod no longer appears in the dropdown list (right click on song or podcast - add to playlst) when i want to transfer a song or podcast to my ipod. My only option is to drag and drop now. Also I cannot play on my computer a song or podcast that is on my ipod,(I do this to sync my ipod to where it last played) it's as though it is not recognizing it even though my ipod icon does appear in itunes. I use a 1GB shuffle.

    i knew the solution was in front of my face! thank you so much pointing it out for me : )

  • Itunes 9.2 consistently pauses the music when playing from Ipod Touch

    I couldn't find this posted anywhere else so ever since updating itunes and my ipod touch I've been having a problem when playing music on my computer from ipod. About 5-10 times during the song itunes will pause the song and my ipod will say "Syncing in progress". It gets really annoying and hasn't happen before the update. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks.

    You should get your songs into iTunes and then immediately back them up.
    To get the songs off your iPod and into iTunes, see this post from Zevoneer > http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11857456&#11857456
