Mark a Podcast as Unread

How to mark a podcast as unread.
I update my iPod with the unread podcast only, and there is one mark as read that I don't listened.
Thanks
Ben

Control-click on a podcast (or select multiple podcasts and ctrl-click on the selection) and choose Mark as Unplayed.
Hope this helps.

How can I mark a podcast as "read" ?

Is there a way for me to manually mark a podcast as one that I have already heard? I almost never listen to them in iTunes and I manually select which ones I put on my nano. iTunes can't tell if I've listened or not and so I'm automatically unsubscribed.
G4 Dual, iPod nano Mac OS X (10.4.4) iTunes 6.02

After researching this further, I have concluded that the update feature is working correctly. What I was expecting was that once the iPod would sync with my Mac, that the updating, including marking the podcast as read would take place at that point. In reality, this function does not take place until I click on "Update" in iTunes. During that process the various blue dots of those Podcasts listened to go away, and Podcasts that are outside the parameters of those I want to retain are deleted.
So, if indeed, as long as I have completed the entire Podcast, the update functions are working properly.

No way to mark sms messages as 'unread'?

Hi everyone,
I just received my first ever iphone as an upgrade 2 days ago and am so shocked that you can't mark sms messages as unread. Surely this is a crucial feature that allows you to come back to messages you don't want to reply to straight away but don't want to forget about?
Also, within bookmarks, is it not possible to delete the factory bookmarks and just keep your umported bookmarks at the top? You pretty much can't move them around!
Thanks for all of your help

Thank you for replying, but unfortunately your response if not related to my problem:
I am aware that SMS message remain available until I decide to delete them - my query is that I am wondering if there is an option to mark a message or thread as 'unread'.
As for bookmarks, I am aware how to drag them, but my query was how to delete the Apple bookmark folders. Also, thank you for pointing out the User Guide - I am aware of how to operate my iPhone to this level thank you very much!

Messages not marked read if last unread message

I sort incoming mail into various folders
I use the "Move to next unread" button to go through messages
I configured mail to be marked read immediately upon display
This works perfectly till I reach the last unread message in any folder - clicking the "move to next unread" button will move me to the next folder with an unread message, BUT, the last unread message in the just exited folder is left marked unread
I've tried compacting my folders, deleting my .msf files, and, the 'repair folder' option in the properties pages of the folders, but nothing has worked
Can any one suggest something else to try?

re: Does it do this if you use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move to next in the list; the last one?
''The down arrow key only moves the focus to the following folder, and does not land on or display a message in that folder ''
If the focus is on the Folder in the Folder Pane , then the arrows will move up and down the Folder Pane list.
If the focus in on a selected email in the list of emails you can use the up and down arrows to move up and down the list. As you select an email, it is displayed in the Message Pane below and marked as read. I use this method alot as it is quicker than moving the mouse over any buttons.
I'm trying to work out if this is something related only to the 'Next unread button' or whether something else is conflicting. I presume if you click on the email it is marked as read..
So please tell me if the use of arrows to select emails, still causes the issue.
Test if the Sort Order effects the marking of the last unread email.
Please select the following Sort Order and tell me if the 'Next unread' button works with a different Sort by order.
View > Sort by > Date - Descending - unthreaded
Do you use the 'Quick Filter Bar' to 'Show only unread messages' - icon looks likea pair of sunglasses?
If no. could you please test.
Select the 'Show only unread messages' - then use the 'Move to the Next unread mesage' button.
Does it still fail to mark the last email as read?
What version of Thunderbird are you using?
What OS ?
Confirm Pop or imap mail account?
Please test whether their are any addons causing a conflict:
In Thunderbird
'Help > 'REstart with Addons disabled'
then use the Next unread button method to see if it works ok.
If it works ok then an addon is causing an issue.

Marking multiple messages as unread

Is there a way to mark multiple emails as unread?
I find that many times I have already read my emails on my Mac, but the iPhone lists them all as unread. It seems silly that I should have to "re-read" them one-by-one to mark them unread on the iPhone. So, instead of wasting my time with such a task, my iPhone is always indicating >50 or >100 unread emails.
Where is the "Mark all as read" option ??

Destin Hoffmann1,
If you are accessing your .Mac with IMAP on your computer and iPhone, they will be marked as read on both when you read them on either. When using IMAP there is no need to reread them. If you use the .Mac option when setting up the account directly on the phone it will be set up as IMAP. With POP3 the message status is not synced.
This article has more information about POP3 versus IMAP:

Hope this helps,

No longer marking songs/podcasts as "Played"

I count on my shuffle updating iTunes (windows) that a podcast was played. This way I know which I can delete from the podcast directory. Since going to the latest version of iTunes when I update the shuffle it is not feeding back the information that a podcast has been played. Anyone else experiencing this?

Is it that Mail doesn’t mark messages as read or that messages marked as read revert to the unread status some time afterwards?
Do you have any Mail plug-ins or system utilities that could interfere with Mail? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/Mail/Bundles/
~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

How do I mark read emails as unread?

I have an iPad 2 and it when it updated the new IOS, I no longer had the "Mark" button in my email. I want to use the Mark button to make emails "Unread" again.

That feature is now accessed by tapping the Flag icon.

E75 Marking Old Emails as Unread

For some reason my E75 (running the latest update) decided today that approx 75 messages in each of my two mail accounts are suddenly unread and it's no longer syncing. It did this once before and a factory reset fixed it, but doing that every month or so is not a fix.
This phone has been great in some respects and shocking in others: I've had plenty of issues with the email setup (not being able to specify details manually?! Had to use the web interface), I've only managed to get the GPS to find some satellites once and the volume buttons don't work except in a call.
Any ideas folks?

I am having a very similar problem on my E71 on v400 firmware.
Sycing still works but since yesterday lots of old emails from various dates in various folders have become showing as unread. Giving me a notification on every sync for about an hour as more and more mails were marked as unread.
I'm currently going through the mails and marking them as read and hoping this doesn't happen again.

Mail marks old messages as unread and quits upon starting

Opened mail this morning and all of a sudden all my old and already read messages appeared marked unread and mail exexpectedly quits.
I have read many answers to this problem in the Os X 10.4 group, but no real solutions, except for the one about the mailto-link. But that didn't work for me either. People think this is a 10.4.3 bug, but my Mac (G4 mirrored) runs Os 10.3.9 .
Looked into the crashreport and this is what it says:

p.s. is there a way to save all my read messages if I decide to reinstall mail?
Nikki

I don’t understand what you say about what you’ve seen in the Tiger forum, but Mail is crashing because of some corruption in at least one of the files used by the junk filter.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, proceed as follows:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate LSMMap2 and move it to the Trash. This file stores information about what does and doesn’t constitute junk, and allows the junk filter to learn. Deleting this file is what Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset does. The file was called LSMMap in early versions of Mail; delete that as well if you see it.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

Not marking played podcasts

Latest software upgrade fixed the issue of playing one podcast then stopping...big improvement. Now played podcasts remain marked as unplayed on the Nano but when I sync with iTunes, iTunes seems to know which podcasts were played and marks them correctly.

This was the way podcasts worked in all iPods since the beginning and how many used it. It made more sense to play individual episodes in the Podcasts section and adding them to playlists for sequential playback. Many used it this way for years to play individual episodes from the Podcast section when they didn't want all the episodes marked as played. This was the reason I no longer use my touch for podcast listening. Playlists and smart playlists are a better option for sequential playback due to their automation and customizability. Smart Playlists can easily gather up new episodes of different podcasts creating a virtual "radio station".
Now to play an individual podcast episode at bedtime I must make a separate playlist for one episode and do clean up afterwards. One step backwards if you ask me. Now you see lots of complaints here as to why the podcasts are not stopping. A better fix would have been to add an option for sequential playback in the iPod's Podcasts section.

Tv series marked as podcast

Hi
I just lost an entire Tv-series because I accidentally clicked Podcast instead of TV series in the section "Media type"
Now, it's not in the TV, not in the Film and not in the Podcast section of my library. I can't add it again, because It is already in there.
I tried as a test giving "Podcast" as Media type for other films, and they vanished as well.
When I export my library as .xml, and search for the series, it is able to find it, but it shows:
<key>Podcast</key><true/>
Can someone please help?

I made a similar mistake and am having the exact same problem. While reorganizing my videos I mistakenly selected "Podcast" for a short video and it became completely lost in "iTunes Limbo". The video is not found when using the iTunes search, nor is it visible when I select any category from the Library menu on the left (I'm still using iTunes ver. 10.7 with OS X 10.6.8). Even radically changing the file's name in the Finder and then attempting to re-add to iTunes via File > Add To Library... or just selecting and dragging over made no difference at all. Very frustrating, to say the least!
The only way I could re-add this video into my library was to:
1) Quit iTunes and make a back-up of the XML file
2) Edit the XML using TextEdit to search for and delete the info regarding my video, which in this case was:

3) Open the video in QuickTIme Player and resave if from .m4v to .mov
Only after I did this could I re-add this video into my iTunes library, then download it to my iPad (it plays fine).
Obviously this is not the ideal solution; It doesn't resolve why iTunes won't find the "lost" video since it does appear in the XML file, plus converting multiple or many videos to another file format may not an ideal solution for most people. This was just a "band aid" approach that worked for me in this instance.
If anyone has any additional information regarding this problem please share it!
Thanks in advance!

Podcasts Library- unread podcasts count

In the list of iTunes libraries to the left, the number on my "Podcasts" library that tells me how many new podcasts I haven't listened to yet (ie: the # of unplayed podcasts) shows "22", saying I have 22 unplayed podcasts in my library, BUT I don't appear to have any unplayed podcasts in my library. I've listened to them all, and there are no more little blue dots next to any of them (these obviously went away when I listened to them like they were supposed to).
It is iTunes 7.1.1 (I try to keep up-to-date) with added visualisers and Aqua4iTunes set to, if that makes any difference.
Any thoughts?

False alarm, iTunes was fine. The unplayed podcasts were all episodes of the same one, and the blue dot was hidden by a grey dot with a questionmark.

Mark a podcast as watched/listened

Is this possible in the Nano?
Usually there is exit music or blabs that they go on about and if I don't listen all the way to the end, it won't auto-delete when I sync.

I don't listen to podcast. Read the iPod Nano 5th Gen. User Manual (direct PDF download) to see if there are any instructions.
