ITunes removes podcast playing list from iPhone

This is a truly odd behaviour IMO - adds salt to injury in light of iPhone placing order of podcast oddly (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2552626&tstart=0)
1. Create a play list consisting of podcasts on the iPhone. Everything works nicely on the iPhone until
2. Sync with iTunes.
Boom! Your podcast list is now in iTunes but disappears from iPhone!

Kudos to iTunes 10.1 or/and iOS 4.2! The bug is now fixed, with extra bonus - and a new bug.
Before the update, another frustration was that I couldn't add any episode from iTunes U to a playlist. (Not sure if this is possible in iTunes.) Now, not only iTunes is no longer removing playlist with podcasts, but it now allows iTunes U to be included.
In fact, not only it allows both podcast and iTunes U, iTunes 10.1 even recovered all the contents it rejected in the past, and restored my test playlist to include everything I attempted to include that is still on the iPhone.
The only problem is: I could no longer maintain any edit I made on iPhone. As the restored list became so big, I cleared the list, added the few items I wanted. But as soon as I resync, the long, unwieldy list comes back!

  • Itunes removed all my apps from iphone

    All my applications that weren't on iphone when I bought it have been removed from my iphone. They don't show up on my iphone app sync page but there are listed in itunes under applications. Each one has an exclamation mark next to it. How do I get them back onto my iphone? And why did this happen without my prompting?

    the ( ! ) means those files were moved and iTunes lost track of them. Doug has a script http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=bringoutyerdead but i'm not sure if it will work with apps.
    if you cannot locate those files at all, be aware that purchased apps can be re-downloaded for free.

  • ITunes 11.1 and / or the Podcast app on iOS 7 will not allow me to create play lists in iTunes. Is there an app that will allow me to create podcast plays lists and play them on the iPhone running iOS7 ?

    iOS 7 will not alow podcasts lists in the music app so we have to use the podcast app
    but iTunes 11.1 and / or the Podcast app on iOS 7 will not show podcast play lists created in iTunes (well maybe it does but clicking on the podcasts app causes iTunes to freeze so can not select)
    sometime some folders created in iTunes have appeared with the Podcast app but others not.
    creating an on the go list in my iphone is agony - I have over 100 podcasts I have subscribed to and when creating a list you can not view by most recently downloadded podcast
    AND you can't search (no search bar) so I have to scroll through to find a podcast that might have been updated - but they are not in any logocal order that I can work out (not alphbetical or date added).
    Video podcasts are mixed with audio
    podcasts I delete (unsubscribe to) keep coming back
    its a disaster
    my question is there an alternative iPhone app that works with iTunes
    no I don't want an app where I have to download to the phone directly, thats 100 subscriptions I will have to make agaian

    Agree about the disaster part. I haven't found a fix within iTunes.
    I gave up and switched to downcast 2 days ago. Even though it was a hassle to re-subscribe to all my podcasts, im so much happier.
    To make switching easier, I found that in iTunes you can "get info" on the podcast and copy the RSS address to the clipboard. Put all of these in a message note. When iCloud syncs the note to your phone, you can copy and paste the urls into downcast one at a time to subscribe.
    Downcast has crashed on me occassionally when I'm subscribing to feeds, but so far it has recovered gracefully each time and no data was lost.

  • Ever since I updated the operating system, itune doesn't play music on iphone 4. if it plays, it plays only one song and gets stuck.

    Ever since I updated the operating system, itune doesn't play music on iphone 4. If it plays, it plays only one song and gets stuck. I've tried to reconnect to the computer to see whethere there has been missing portion during the upgrade... but not really. does anyone have the same issue?

    What does "gets stuck" mean?
    It repeats?
    It stops playing?
    Have you tried the basics from the manual?  Restart.  Reset.  Restore.

  • TS3159 Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?

    Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?  Please help!

    No, I haven't figured it out.  And no one from Apple has contacted me to help.  Very frustrating.  Sure makes me want to not buy music on iTunes and just buy CD's.
    Do you have a 3GS too?  Maybe it's something with that phone??

  • How do I remove iCloud music function from iPhone?

    How do I remove iCloud music function from iPhone?

    Thanks, operative word here is hide.
    iTunes wants to keep music on the iPhone even after you want to clear it out and start over. I wish they had a "flush" function. At present after wiping it basically clean, down to one album, then checking the fill option, iTunes fills up the iphone with the same albums I just got rid of... I have a huge selection in my library to choose from. But it keeps returning to the same albums even though I have not checked them or artist. Frustrating.

  • Cannot play songs from iphone or ipad

    I'm sorry if this is a repeated question. But suddenly about 95% of my songs on iphone 3gs have turned into grey color and it cannot be played, either from iphone itself or from itunes in laptop under iphone device. It also happened to my ipad. All albums are transferred but they appear to be grey. 5% of the songs are still black and can be played alright. I'm so frustrated!! I did try everything. Please..if anybody can help me. Thank you...
    I'm not sure if this has anything to do with itunes 10 that I just downloaded or not

    It's that way because that's the way Apple designed it.
    I just merely wish to listen to them using itunes and my pc headphones while it charges the unit.
    You can still connect headphones to the iPhone and listen while your PC changes the iPhone. Until Apple changes things, that's it.
    You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

  • AirPort Express has weak signal while playing music from Iphone, intermittent play

    AirPort Express has weak signal while playing music from Iphone, intermittent play

    I'm having the same problem, even more:
    - Watching movies over AppleTV: switches off every 20min (sleep mode).
    - Listening to iTunes music ofer AirPlay: the same.
    - A whole confusion with switching airplay destinations (AppleTV, AirportExpress) over iPhone remote app. Sometimes remote cannot find my library anymore
    - Before, I was able to multitask: stream a DVD to AppleTV, using airplay mirroring, and simultaneously stream music from iTunes on the same computer, over the iTunes airplay selector, to loudspeakers connected to AirportExpress. No longer possible.
    I've grown a big Apple fan in short time, proudly living  what for others is the future (your media stored anyhwere, controlled from anywhere, played anywhere, stop thinking in terms of devices). And, I've learnt to savour the  moments when you can look your Microsoft friends deep in the eyes and say: "The big difference with Apple  - it just works"...
    At the moment, I'm trying not to invite my friends.

  • How do I set up my iTunes Genius to play selections from all, not just some, of my songs in my currently playing playlist?

    Last night, when I played my playlist songs with iTunes Genius, my iTunes, with one of my playlists selected, and set on "Shuffle On," "Genius Shuffle On, "Genius On," "Match On," and "Play," played selections from all of my songs in my playlist. Today, my iTunes Genius went back to the same problem it was giving me before last night. My iTunes Genius has been playing selections from just a few of my playlist albums. How do I set up my iTunes Genius to play selections from all, not just some, of my songs in my currently playing playlist?

    No backup is a huge mistake.

    No content shows in iTunes after updating
    iTunes 11.04 is most certainly compatible with iOS5 and previous versions of iTunes.
