My Ipod doesnt play every podcast

It' s my third ipod. The first had an error. The second also. I don't know if the third has also an error. There are some podcasts which do not work on my ipod. They work in itunes but when i try to copy them on my ipod he says: "this podcast do not work on your ipod because of the format".There are about 19 podcats which do not work Sometimes when there are 3parts of the serie the first part works and the others not.It's not normal?

The fact that the Podcasts will not play because they are in the wrong format is normal, and it doesn't mean your iPod has an error, it just means your iPod doesn't know how to read/play the format the Podcasts are in. Try selecting the Podcasts that do not play in iTunes and then go to the advanced menu in iTunes and select "convert selection for iPod/iPhone" then re-transfer the newly converted podcast(s) to your iPod and see if they play now?

My ipod doesnt play sound on Videos

I have recently purchased the 80GB Ipod video,and I uploaded many videos but it doesnt play the sound.Could any one help me on this?

Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

Why does my ipod dont play video podcasts

IPhone 4 - iPod app plays music/podcasts with reverb - How do I make it stop?

Hello!
Recently, when I play music or podcasts from my iPhone 4, whether into headphones, from the phone itself, or connected to speakers, it plays it with a sort of echo or reverb.
It does not do this when I am on speaker phone.
I can't think of what could be causing this, but I use my iPod often, especially in my car on the long drive to and from work.
It's kind of creepy sometimes, depending on what's playing, not to mention, just annoying that it's happening in the first place.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this, and how it can be fixed?

CORRECTION:
After Apple gave me a new phone, it worked fine for a while, then the problem started again once I plugged it into the Aux input in my car. I unplugged it, and tested the phone by itself, still did it. But only on podcasts.
My husband did some more research and corrected the problem. Here's what was happening:
When you play podcasts, and you're in the "now playing" screen that's a translucent black, shows volume, where you're at in the podcast, etc. In the upper right corner of this screen, there is a little white box that says "1x". Touching this box will allow you to change the speed of the podcast (I guess some people are such avid podcast listeners, that it saves them time to listen to it faster). I had coincidentally and unknowingly changed the speed of the podcast to "1.1x" which just made it sound funny, not faster.
He changed it back to "1x", and everything is now hunky dory! But thanks for the new phone, Apple! Just wanted to clear that up. Sorry for the confusion.

Can't get ipod to play a podcast a second time

Help!
I have no trouble getting and playing podcasts on my ipod mini, but once I finish listening to the podcast, it dissapears from the ipod and will not reload back on the ipod no matter what I've tried.
The podcasts are still in iTunes and will play in iTunes, I just can't get them to play again on the ipod.
I don't have fast connection, so I'd rather not reload them.
I'm using iTune 5 iPod 1.4.
Thank you,
Mark Evans

if that still fails, try renaming the project to something MUCH shorter:

Ipod doesnt play some songs

now whenever i play my ipod and select a song to play it just skips onto another song even though it used to play it fine the other day. it even skips songs belonging to a whole album and i have not changed any settings or anything! help pls!

I don't know if my problem/solution will help in your case, but yesterday I purchased an album on itunes, and although it downloaded and played on itunes just fine, when it sync'd to my 60GB ipod, only some of the songs played. I tried restoring the ipod, but that did not solve the problem. So, while waiting to hear back from tech support, I decided to delete the entire album from both the music listing and the purchased music listing AFTER burning a CD (and making sure it was a good burn). I did a sync to make sure the listing was removed from the ipod, then imported the newly burned CD, did another sync, and voila! all the songs on the album now play without any skipping. Hopefully this will work with your problem (unless you're experiencing skipping on all your albums)
Good luck!

Song play on Ipod doesnt play on Ipad

Ipod and Itunes can play selected songs. The some of the same selected songs on the Ipad 3 will not play. Some songs that actually play skip around. Anyone else having this issue?

I have the same issue. The songs play on my iPod, but don't play on my iPhone. I've had a question posted about this for a few weeks now.

Videora works . . . but iPod doesnt play file??

Hey everyone, I've been doing research and tried out videora and it works pretty good and extremely quick. After I convert the files I add them to iTunes and then upload them to my iPod video . . . however the video file starts to play but there is no picture and the audio is just STATIC . . ive tried different video files in case the original file is corrupted, but they all end up the same way . . . any help?

get quicktime pro, it has a special 'export to ipod' feature that works wonders.

I don't want to listen to EVERY podcast in my library

It seems that to download new podcast episodes. I have to listen to the oldest one on my computer/ipod so it can download the latest episode. Sometimes I go weeks without listening to podcasts on my itunes or ipod because I listen to them straight from their website. So when I do want to listen to a podcast on my ipod, its from a month ago. Does anyone know how to overcome this problem? A really difficult way to solve it that i found was play every podcast that i haven't listened to and move the timer to the right so that i can get the newest episode.
Thank You,
Will

How do I play one Podcast at a time?

My old IPod played one Podcast at a time. My new 160 Classic plays them continually. Is there a way to get my new IPod to play one Podcast at a tme?

Turn on *shuffle songs* and then start the Podcast episode you want. The display should say "1 of 1" because all Podcasts are set to *Skip on shuffle* so the one you're playing is the only option for the iPod.

My iPod crashes when I try to play a podcast

For the last few weeks, whenever I go to play a podcast I have downloaded it gets a minute in and then my iPod crashes and resets itself to the menu page. Everything else - songs, videos etc all work properly, it's just the podcast. Can anyone help me stop it doing this? It's really annoying.

I'll bet it's annoying! Does it do it with EVERY podcast you download, or just one? Is it sound only or a video podcast?

Ipod stops playing after each podcast

When I play music, each song plays one after the other like you expect. When I play my podcasts after each one the ipod stops and goes back to menu screen. How do I get it to play the podcasts one after the other like songs? Is this a setup item I missed? Thanks for any help.

The iPod does not use folders like you do in Windows or Mac OS. They are invisible to the user.
You are not explaining yourself very well or you have never used an iPod.
I don't understand how using folders will make it easier than it already is.
If everything is in folders and you do not use playlists, then you have to move everything around into folders to listen to specific music.
I never said playlists were cumbersome but they are sometimes ineffective. Some times you don't want a certain rating or a certain grouping but maybe you just want to listen to one album in order or one podcast.
So select that album or that one podcast and press play.
It's much easier to find that podcast or album by name then it is to scroll through thousands of entries to find the starting title of the group.
Why don't you do it this way now?
I go to
Music -> Albums -> pick one and play
Music -> Podcasts -> pick one and play
That's what the problem was last week I would go to artists choose the artist then the album and then it would play one song and skip to the top menu.
That seems to have been a glitch.
I go to Music -> Artist -> Album and press play. It plays the entire album with all the songs in album in order.
It did it for every album and every song I chose every day of the trip a couple weeks ago and yes they all have there check boxes selected in iTunes.
The check box is used only if you want to use Update only checked songs in iTunes prefs -> iPod. Once the songs are on the iPod, this option has nothing to do with th eiPod.
