Old podcast episodes automatically deleted from iPod

Within the last couple of weeks, after I listen to certain podcasts, the episodes have been automatically removed from my iPod when I sync it with my Mac, but other old episodes remain. I don't have my iPod set up to do this. What should I do? Restore my iPod?

I have described the proces once on this forum.
In short: Disable automatic sync and enable manualy manage in itunes on yours ipod summary screen...
It should look like this:

  • Old podcasts were auto deleted from hard drive

    I download a handful of podcasts once a week and keep a regular backlog on hand to listen to when traveling. This week, all of my archived podcast files -- looks like anything older than one week -- are gone. They were still listed in iTunes, but the files were deleted from my hard drive. They aren't even in my recycle bin, so I know I didn't delete them.
    I assume this happened during my latest iTunes update (yeah, I know, this probably covered in the encyclopedic user agreement), but I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this and has a solution. I did spot the Allow/Do Not Auto Delete option, which I'll now use every time.
    Thanks.

    However I have a couple of grayed out folders with a question mark and "inval..." that are non-functional and nothing happens when I choose "remove".
    Try rebooting your computer.  In previous instances, that sometimes caused these phantom folders to disappear from Lightroom's folder pane.

  • Old podcasts not being deleted from hard drive

    Can anyone help me with this problem? I currently have the "keep only unplayed podcasts" selected. ITunes synchs great with my Nano. If a podcast is played, it is taken off of the Nano.
    The problem is that the podcast is not also deleted from my hard drive. I have to manually delete the file and "move to recycle bin." Does anyone know a way of having ITunes actually delete the file from the hard drive? I don't want to waste so much space.
    I am using ITunes 7.

    I'm running a managed library.
    Let me see if I can understand this. The problem has to do with the place I was looking at. I was looking in the pictures folder in the hard drive. Now, the pictures inside the iPhoto library are the ones that are deleted from the hard drive, and the ones in the Pictures folder are not being touched at all. So I have two separate folders with pictures: the iPhoto library folder and the Pictures folder inside the hard drive.
    Since I'm going to be using iPhoto exclusively I might as well delete that other Pictures folder in the hard drive. If I delete the pictures in this folder, would that affect the pictures I have in the iPhoto Library? I'm thinking no since iPhoto has made copies of all those pictures. What do you think?
    THanks for the info TD

  • Old podcast episode stuck on my nano ipod

    I have a problem with my nano ipod, I have a second generation and it has a old podcast episode that won't go away.I download it on another computer and when I updated it on another computer, the episode is still their.I've tried deleting it and found out that the site that I got the episode from, had their podcast taken down.Is their any way that I can remove this episode?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer files/docs/pics/music/etc.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.
    The exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • All podcast becoming unchecked then deleted from iPod since Lion install

    All podcast becoming unchecked then deleted from iPod since Lion install.

    Sorrry I should have said I do recheck them and resync.  I have settings to Auto include all episodes of selected podcast.  Seems to work for day or so then all are unchecked again.

  • Cannot delete old podcast episodes after updating to ios 8

    The usual way of manually deleting old podcast episodes, swiping right to left and then selecting the red delete button, appears to be no longer available. Do I need to fix something or is there a new way of doing this function?

    Have you tried swiping left to right?
    Try going to Settings>General>Usage>Podcasts  and select the the podcast you want to delete and tap edit in in upper left and delete the podcast.

  • Front Row still displays deleted old podcast episode

    I have subscribes to ScreenCastsOnline podcast, and one of the episodes was an audio update. It is only since I checked in iTunes today that I have found I don't actually have that episode in iTunes anymore, and it is definately not in the Podcasts folder within the iTunes folder. Yet Front Row is saying I still have it, and it has a blue ball next to it to say it hasn't been played. If I try to play it, Front Row tells me it can't be played (obviously because the file is no longer there).
    I have tried unsubscribing to ScreenCastsOnline and making sure there is no trace of it in the iTunes folder, and yet the one episode is STILL listed on Front Row!!
    How can I remove it?

    Update:
    Firstly, there are actually TWO old podcast episodes total that are not on my Mac anymore but are listed on Front Row. I removed any trace of all Podcasts in iTunes and the podcast folder disappeared in the iTunes Music library folder, yet two podcasts remained in FR.
    Secondly, I opened the iTunes Music Library.xml file with Text Edit, and found entries for both of these podcasts within using a search. I have removed the keys associated with both and did a search again to confirm they had been removed. I rebooted and tried FR again, and the podcasts are STILL there!!! What else can I do, PLEASE????

  • How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

    How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

    FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
    But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
    Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

  • What do you do if contacts are automatically deleted from the iphone

    all my contacts have been automatically deleted from my iphone. what can i do to get them back?

    Lol no , don't own anything to sync with . Use my iPhone as a phone mostly , don't know why cos its not even good at that!! Have maybe downloaded 6 or 7 apps since I got it , I delete all mail from unknown in case of virus so don't think that's the problem.

Think I will try the rock idea !! Thanks anyway Rojmer

  • When I delete an email from my iPhone 5 it is also automatically deleted from my Home PC and my Providers server.  Can I stop this happening?

    When I delete an email from my iPhone 5 the mail is also automatically deleted from my home pc on Windows Mail and also my providers server.
    How can I stop this happening?

    That's the way IMAP and Exchange accounts work. They synchronize the message store completely between the server and all clients.
    If you don't really want to delete it, then don't delete it. File it into a folder instead.

  • I recently got a mac book pro and uploaded my pictures and videos from my iphone 4 to the mac book. If I delete these pictures and videos from my phone will they automatically delete from the mac book?

    I recently got a mac book pro and uploaded my pictures and videos from my iphone 4 to the mac book. If I delete these pictures and videos from my phone will they automatically delete from the mac book?

    No.  The data that you downloaded from your iPhone will remain on your MBP.

  • HT4623 How do I delete from the apps store an updated app that was downloaded? Prior to iso7.2.0 once the app was downloaded it was automatically deleted from the updated section in the App Store.

    How do I delete from the apps store an updated app that was downloaded and shows open? Prior to iso7.2.0 once the app was downloaded it was automatically deleted from the App Store.

    You don't.
    The update section will continue to show recently updated apps due to the ability to auto download updates.
    It effects nothing, just ignore them.

  • Podcast files randomly deleted from hard disk but remain on ipod

    Hi,
    I'm running the latest iTunes with a 5G (brand new) 80Gb Video Ipod.
    I have subscribed to several podcasts via http://www.podiobooks.com
    iTunes seems to work okay for a while, but then I files go missing on the PC. The file seems to have been deleted from the iTunes folder, but remains on the ipod.
    I don't see this effect with music or video, just podcasts.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
    I have stripped and reinstalled everything on my ipod and cleared the itunes library three times now trying to resolve this problem.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers

    Look two lines below the 10.4 version and you will see the version that works for 10.3.9. (Where it says "Download version 1.0.3 for OS X 10.2 - 10.3".)

  • I am a podcaster and my episodes are deleted from itunes

    I am a podcaster, and I deleted some of my episodes from the itunes v8 on my computer. Now they no longer show up in the itunes directory. I even go to another computer using itunes and search, and they are gone. How do I get them back?
    Thanks

    They will not show up on your computer because they don't exist on that computer (you deleted them).
    You need to redownload them.
    They will not show up on another computer unless they are downloaded to that specific computer.

  • Photos deleted from Ipod when deleted from Computer

    Hi everyone,
    After I download my photos into the ipod (60gb)I usually delete them from the computer.
    The next time I connect the ipod to download new pictures, the ipod deletes the old ones and adds the new ones. Is there a way I can keep all my photos on the Ipod after deleting them from the computer?Thanks Rebel1622

    Are you serious? I have the exact same problem and do the same thing other guy did. Surely there is some way to manuallly add new photos and not have the photos on ipod that were deleted from the computer deleted from the ipod as well automatically???? If that's true, that's nuts. No wonder I've never used Apple products till now.....
