Podcasts automatically delete themselves???!!!!!

HELP!!! Whenever I listen to/watch a podcast, the little blue dot that was next to them vanishes. Then when I update my iPod, the watched podcasts delete themselves from my iPod and computer!!!! Has this happened to anyone else? I also notice that when the podcasts delete themselves, I can't put them back on. How/why does this happen, and how can I fix it????
PS, My iPod is an 80GB video and only 3 days old.

Good for you, football_gurl90!
I find it hilarious you first thought you were running iTunes on a Win ME machine. Coupled with your comment about unintelligent podpeople, I can only say -
Happy podding to you, dear!

ICloud emails deleting themselves...

Facebook worth $100b? This one is as mindboggling...
Scenario:
Since I upgraded to iCloud from Mobile.me incoming emails to my me.com account are automatically deleting themselves every time mail is refreshed. Emails disappear from icloud.com, my iPad and iPhone, yet they remain in the Mail application inbox on my MacBook Pro.
Background:
All three devices are running the latest OS.
I only have one iCloud account.
I haven't touched any settings within Mail.
I've tried deleting and reinstating the iCloud accounts on the iPad and iPhone.
I've restored data on the iPad and iPhone.
I've rebooted the iPad and iPhone.
I have been for a long walk...
There have been no changes to any settings on any devices since migrating to iCloud.
Apart from everyday rules allocating emails to various files, there are no rules set up in Mail to delete emails or similar (and nothing has been touched since migration).
Sent emails are successfully synching across all three devices.
Any ideas would be *very* welcome, cheers.
Bill

Well, it turns out that Facebook can't sustain an initial $100b valuation after all; and maybe this problem isn't as mindboggling either...
Having tried various scenarious to see any made a difference, I found that when I quit the Mail application on the MacBook, the emails on the iPad and iPad stayed in place.
Although no new rules or filters had been put in place since migration - and none had ever been in place to delete emails - I tried removing all the rules completely.
Again, this worked, and all emails on all devices stayed in place.
However, as soon as any rule is installed, eg to put all emails sent to a certain address into a particular folder, the deleting problem starts again across the board.
I've reported the issue to Apple who have been helpful and they're investigating.
An inbox swollen with unfiltered email is far better than no email at all...

Is there a way to delete one of several checkboxes from a pdf form without the leftover checkboxes automatically renumbering themselves?

Is there a way to delete one of several checkboxes from a pdf form without the leftover checkboxes automatically renumbering themselves?
I used LiveCycle Designer to make a pdf form with many checkboxes. When I deleted a few of the checkboxes the rest left on the form renumbered themselves. This made my JavaScript out of sync since the JavaScript checkbox numbers did NOT update automatically. I am hoping there is a preference option to not auto update. I just cannot find it,

I believe you're using the same name for each checkbox, right?!
If so, each checkbox has an index number which represents its position relative to the other copies in the XML tree and when you add, delete or reorder the copies the index will always be recreated because thats the way how XML works.
There is no way to stop Designer from doing this, I'm afraid.
To address individual objects through JavaScript you should use unique names.

Podcasts delete themselves while playing

Hi all-
There's one podcast to which I subscribe (KQRS Morning Show) which will randomly delete themselves from my 5S while they are playing, and I am forced to re-download them. I do not sync them with my Mac, and this happens throughout the day while I'm away from my home. This is irritating beyond belief. Any thoughts or opinions would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Go to the podcast page of the library on that computer and click the settings tab at the bottom. Check and see what the "Keep" option is set to.

Podcasts app won't remember played episodes and automatically deletes played episodes.

I'm using an iPhone 4, iOS 6. I run a Mac and have set podcasts to keep 1 most recent episode. It simply will not honor this setting. Tried deleting/reloading Podcasts app won't remember played episodes. It will randomly decide all xx previous episodes are new and unplayed. Even after marking all as played it will show it as such and then an hour later revert. This is not shown on my home computer or on an ipad or what not just FYI. It automatically deletes played episodes. I'd like to keep the most recent episode of all the podcasts I subscribe to and only delete once the new one is downloaded. In case I want to refer back. It regularly deletes them, requiring me to redownload the episode and annihilating my data cap. It just won't actually sync or work correctly at all.
Any advice or help is very much appreciated. I hate to vent; it is just exasperating.
PS: I understand many people like third party providers and you'd think I'd have done that given how much I listen to podcasts but this ought to work and work like Amazon's whispersync. Whoever is in charge of this is a bozo that's blowing it and I hope they are aware of it.

I am also having problems with 100s of played podcasts being listed. Like others, if I delete a podcast, it reappears as unplayed the next time I open podcast app in a WiFi zone. In the meantime, the app stops working while it tries to handle all the new info. Finally for some podcasts, it plays and old episode when I select the most recent. I keep selecting "Mark all as played" only to see 100s show up a few hours later. I would prefer played episodes not to be listed in menu at all!
I listen to podcasts on the subway without any ability to stream and prefer to access only from my phone and not have to fuss with computer.
I have read that if you delete the app to go back to using Music app, you can no longer download new podcasts but must do in iTunes. Is there any fix or workaround?

ITunes automatically deleted Podcast file location?

Hello,
I recently had an interesting situation that I can't seem to solve so I thought I'd turn to the community for help. I currently subscribe to a particuar podcast and have the iTunes settings configured to ONLY keep the two most recent episodes before iTunes automatically deletes older episodes. Everything was going smoothly until this week when I realized that I actually wanted to keep an episode that was automatically downloaded (the episode that was deleted was deleted today and I started serching for it today).
The simple answer would be for me to just re-download the episode that iTunes automatically deleted...but that is not possible. Unfortunately, the episode that I was saving is no longer available so I can't re-download it (yes, an episode from three weeks ago is no long available to download because the podcaster changed the episode and re-uploaded a new shorter episode in it's place). After checking the trash, I noticed the file wasn't there so I turned to a file recovery program (Disk Drill). After running the utility, I was able to locate all of the podcasts that I had manually deleted, but the podcast episodes that iTunes automatically removed (due to the settings I put in place) are not included in the list of files.
I'm assuming that iTunes must delete the files in some other method, but if that's the case, the files have to go somewhere, right? Any ideas on where these files may be located...or any thoughts on how to recover the podcast episode?
Thanks to anyone for any assistance or thoughts.
T.J.

Thanks, Jeremy292. I was looking for a word and didn't notice the icon.

Songs delete themselves

Hi, I've been set on a quest to figure out my nieces ipod nano (i have a regular 2nd gen ipod)- her ipod charges fine and i just set it to my mac with no problem but the issue that i'm trying to resolve is that her ipod will get songs on it for about a week, then when the battery dies the songs are all erased... I searched for as long as I had the patience to find something on this topic but I couldnt find anything... so to recap...
- battery is fine
- songs upload fine
- songs delete themselves when ipod battery dies (about a week into normal usage)
how do I get the songs to stay on after the ipod dies?? (I realize that keeping it charged would eliminate issues but she is 8 and that won't ever happen)
thanks... Dani

Is your iPod set to automatically update? If so, are all the songs still in your iTunes library? If not, this is probably the cause.
If it is, you may want to restore your iPod and then resync it with iTunes...

Also, make sure you never disconnect your iPod when it says not to.
Is the software on your iPod and your computer up to date?

I am no longer able to turn off cellular data usage for individual apps. When I turn most of them off, they just automatically reset themselves to allow data usage. Any thoughts?

I am definately having the same problem and cannot believe there are no answers or even support that this problem exists. I never have to post on forumns, I read what is usually readilly availiable for the craziest of problems.
Anyways, the problem is just that, I can toggle off a individual app's setting of cellular data availability, but it changes right back on rescreening. After restarting, resetting etc, it seems that the big Apple Apps are the biggest offenders. Music is a very important one, Podcasts can kill you very quickly, app store, Photos, Facetime, Stocks?!?!?!
When one searches for solutions I have to see hundreds of links to "How great is ios7, you can turn off cellular data for individual apps FOR DUMMIES!". I am a dedicated apple fool since the Apple IIe (long time), but when they run afowl it is usually really bad. Why offer an on/off switch if the setting is always on?
I am writing just to add support to the existence of this problem, not so much for people to offer ideas of solutions as I now believe it is in the coding.
Thank you

Podcast not deleting

Hi,
my podcasts is not syncing correctly...
I set it to "keep all unplayed episodes" on the itunes setting
and I set "sync all unplayed episodes" on the ipod
Now I think with itunes 6... it should delete all the podcast that has been played and keep all the unplayed ones and sync it to the ipod...
But now with itunes 7... it always keep all the podcast even though it has been played (no blue dots)
Secondly, I just notice... I went into podcast library there is no podcast,because I delete all that has been played...
But then I made a smart playlist with "my rating is 0 stars" rule... guess what... i can see about 60 something podcasts that I deleted a long time ago... And it still can be played... now... I can't find these in music, video, or podcast library... how am I suppose to delete these files? The Only thing I can do is to uncheck them and delete them directly from the folder/hardrive... As it turns out it is still in my ipod...
so my questions are
1 how to sync my podcast and automatically delete all played podcast?
2 how do I delete these podcast that I can't find in the library? the only way for me to find these "hidden" podcasts is by using smart playlist... but i can't delete from smart playlist...
Now in the smart playlist, it still show these "hidden" podcast, it show the ! sign, but i can't delete them...
thanks

Over the last couple of weeks, all my received emails have started deleting themselves. All the emails I had prior to this happening have also been deleted. If I send myself an email, it'll appear on my BB and then delete itself after about 30 - 45 minutes. If I send email from my BB, the sent message will stay there. It's only received emails that are deleted.
This only started happening recently and prior to that there were no issues. I haven't changed any email settings. This happens regardless of whether or not Outlook is running or not.

Hi,
Please post the HP product number for your PC. How to Find the HP Model Number and the HP Product Number or let HP automatically find your PC model number and HP network attached printers. This will allow others to review your issue, make suggestions and review your responses. This is usually the best way to get assistance.
If you search the Internet you will find numerous posts and suggestions that describe your situation with many, many different suggestions and possible solutions. You will find pages and pages of suggestions that may or may not solve your problem. There isn't any one time cure all suggestion based on your symptom description. You might want to try a few suggestions and see if you get lucky.
You may need to separate the "wheat from the chaff" (hardware issues from software issues) or you might be chasing the issue for many, many hours.
I have seen hardware failures produce similar issues. You might try running diagnostics for 1-2 hours and see if the diagnostics will detect an issue. Even hardware diagnostics are not a cure all solution for possible hardware issues.
If you can roll your PC back to a known good Windows restore point before the issue started then give that a try. Otherwise back up your data to external media and use the external HP recovery media to bring your PC back to a factory day one condition. Then without loading a lot of software add ons, try some multiple browsing for the time period that the issue typically occurs.

Podcasts getting deleted

My iPod seems to automatically delete podcasts that I've already listened to.
But then it only does this for certain podcasts but not others. For example, it does this to Manchester United fancasts but not to NPR's Fresh Air. Is this specific to a podcast provider?
I don't want my iPod doing this. Sometimes, I do want to listen to podcasts again. I'd rather delete podcasts manually.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

You'll probably find that the settings for the Man U Podcast are not set the way you want and that they are different for the Man U one compared to your other Podcasts. So let's check the settings for the Podcast:
1. In your iTunes library, Podcast section, highlight the Podcast's _title header,_ so the *Manchester United Football Fancast* title/header (not an episode.) {I assume that's the one you're referring to.}
2. Then select the Settings button at the bottom of the iTunes window. In the box that pops up you will see a drop-down menu for *Check for new episodes* and below that is another drop-down box called *Settings for* which should say "Manchester United Football Fancast". If the item in the drop-down doesn't say that, choose it from the menu.
4. The tick box below that, (called *Use Default Settings)* should have a tick in the box. IMPORTANT - there are two possiblities;
4A. if the tick _is not present_ in the box, then the drop-down menu at the bottom of the pop-up will be activated, the one called *Episodes to keep.* To keep your epsiodes, it should say *All Episodes.* The other options here will cause some, or all, of the older Podcasts to be removed from your iPod (and deleted from iTunes too I think).
4B. if the tick-box does have a tick in it, the *Episodes to keep* option will be greyed out and you cannot change it. However, you will then be using the *Podcast default settings* which will make that Podcast do the same as all the others. (You can check the *Podcast Defualt Settings* by choosing - in the *Settings for* drop-down *Podcast defaults* which is at the top of that list.
Has that solved the problem?

After I watch a podcast I delete it. When I go back in the next day it shows 500-600 episodes I have to delete manually. So 2 questions.... Is there a way to stop this from happening and is there a way to delete all. This is getting frustrating.

After I watch a podcast I delete it. When I go back in there are 500-600 episodes and I have to delete each one manually. Is there a way to stop this from happening or is there a way to delete all at once. It's getting very frustrating.

Had all these issues. Bit the bullet and downloaded the Downcast App ($1.99). Much better expereince and a lot more features. Sad.

I've given my sister my old phone but where she has gone to deleted contacts and pics of photo stream they have then automatically deleted on my recent phone... HELP ME!!

I upgraded my iPhone 4S to iPhone 5c... My sister is planing to have my old 4s but we have gone to delete stuff eg contacts but those contact have then automatically deleted of my iPhone 5c ... I'm not sure if this is to do with the same icloud account being on both phones..
I have backed up iPhone 5c on the computer and have backed up iPhone 4S but not sure if backing up the 4s made a difference. I am then worried that if I delete the iCloud of the 4s it will then delete all my stuff of iCloud and of my 5c
When I got the iPhone 5c I used EE clone phone app so not sure if that has affected all this
Please help
Thanks
Hope all the correct info is there

My e-mail automatically deletes read e-mail in my inbox every 14 days without my permission. How do I get this to stop?

I switched e-mail clients from windows live to thunderbird in mid december to alleviate problems in sending group e-mail. I have thunderbird on a different laptop and the product works flawlessly. The client works flawlessly with one exception: It automatically deletes any read e-mail in my inbox every 14 days without any input from me. I have had ITOK & Hughes.net look at the problem as I am using my inbox as a staging area for for pending business that tracks progress of different events. I have checked settings and there are no evident features that I can switch on or off with that time frame. This has occurred 3 times since December and I have resorted to printing e-mails to prevent loss of data.
The desktop uses windows 7, IMAP for incoming mail...

Log into your account at the providers web mail page and look for any retention options that might be there. Do not put too much into what their help desk tells you. Most help desk agents are lucky to know that the ringing sound means to answer the phone.

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.
