  • HT5295 How do I get podcasts back into itunes in ios6?

    I updated to IOS6 yesterday and found that podcasts had been removed from iTunes and put into the new Podcasts app.  Having spent a day using this app, I have found it to be terrible: it's slow (podcasts take 10-20 seconds to start after I select them - and these are podcasts I've already downloaded, no streaming), the "next" button takes you to an older podcast rather than a newer one like in itunes, for some reason it decided I hadn't listened to about 40 podcasts that I had definitely listened to, the interface is unresponsive, etc.  I went from having a pleasant podcast experience in IOS5 to a terrible one in IOS6.  Does anyone know how to get podcasts back into iTunes, or if that's not possible, can anyone recommend a podcast app that works as smoothly as iTunes did in IOS5?
    Thanks!

    I've just now stumbled into this briar patch with my 4th Gen IPod Touch.  Have only used it to date for music, and it's worked fine.
    I would LOVE to add podcasts.  I'm able to download them to my iTunes PC files, but the pre-loaded 'music' app doesn't seem to want to play them.  I've downloaded the Podcast App, but it's for the IOS series 7. 
    There are a number of suggestions on line regarding how Apple had recognized this problem and had finally made previous versions available "underneath" the App Store Podcast icon . . . but nothing seems to work.
    Did Apple turn around and remove the older Podcast App versions?
    Does anyone know how to get Podcast functionality for a 4th gen IOS 6 series?  This seems like a basic function for an iPod!

  • My computer crashed, i have my library on an external drive, so how do i get it back into itunes?

    Okay so my dad keeps refusing to get a new computer, or a separate laptop for me. Iritatingly, it continues to crash so severely that the hardrive has been wiped clean and restored at least 4 times. Ridiculous. Luckily, I was able to save my library from 9/4/11 on an external drive, but i have no idea how to get it back onto itunes now. Seriously, its a problem because my actual ipod was stolen, ergo i cannot load it from that. What do i do.

    This question has to do with how to restore your computer drive if you backed up the computer to an external drive. Did you use backup software or did you just copy the data from the old computer to the new computer? If you just copied, then you need to just copy over the Music folder which should contain the iTunes folder.

  • Lost audiobooks that have been purchased are gone and iTunes is saying that I have to repurchase them. I have all of the receipts, how can I get them back without having to pay another hundred dollars?

    ITunes is saying that the only way to get back all seven of my audiobooks are to repurchase them, however that is going to be about a hundred dollars to repurchase them all and I don't have that kind of money right now. Why are they making me do this and why the **** did they delete them in the first place, because I know I didn't delete them. I am on a MacBook Pro OS X version 10.9.5, processor 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, memory 2GB 1067 MHz DDR3.

    HI ..
    You're sure you signed into iTunes using the same Apple ID used for the purchases?

  • My folder of playlists is showing up on my phone, but is no longer in itunes! How can I get them back into itunes to synch with my ipad? Sharing on our home network is enabled.

    I'm relieved the playlists (there are 11 in the folder) are still on my phone, but I can find them nowhere in itunes. Other playlists are still there- just that one folder has disappeared. I synched my new ipad to the library, and when I did, the playlist was not one of the options in itunes.
    Background: I have enabled sharing on our home network, and I haven't moved the locations of itunes files or changed anything with my computer, the settings, or my itunes login (apple id).
    My goal is to restore the playlists from my iphone to the itunes library on my laptop so I can then synch the playlists to my ipad.
    Thank you for your help!

    Music is not included in the backup (and nor are films or tv shows), only the contents of third-party apps are included. Did you not do File > Transfer Purchases when connected to your computer's iTunes to copy your iTunes purchases over, and/or have you not got a backup copy of your music somewhere e.g. on an external drive ?

  • HT4859 I used ICloud to get my OUTLOOK contacts in to our new IPad and now the Outlook calendar is fine on the PC BUT ALL MY CONTACTS (1200++) are gone from the PC but are in the Ipad. How do i get them back into my PC. Help.

    All my contacts are now in my lovely new IPad but they have been whisked out of my PC and I need them back. Is this possible-hope so??

    If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
    If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
    Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there.  If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

    After you get the stuff in your iTunes library you may have to let iTunes erase the iPod and replace it s contents with what is now in your iTunes library.

  • I accidentally deleted a folder of music from iTunes.  I have Match, and now it seems deleted from all my devices.  How can I get it back?

    I accidentally deleted a folder of music from iTunes.  I have Match, and now it seems deleted from all my devices.  How can I get it back?

    Were you in iTunes or the Finder? If you were in iTunes what exactly did you click? You say "a folder" but the only "folders" in iTunes contain Playlists and deleting a playlist will not delete tracks from the iTunes library.
    When you deleted the music were you prompted to delete the tracks from the cloud? If so, did you do so?
    Were you prompted to move the files to the Trash. If so did you do so? If you did have you emptied the Trash?
