Podcasts dragged to playlists not able to be deleted

i listen to a lot of podcasts and find older episodes from the site's archives which i drag to playlists on my ipod. i've been noticing that some of these (while playable and visible within the playlist) are not appearing under music while in itunes, which effectively means i cannot delete them (and they're eating up space). i've spent so much time getting the selection of tunes on my pod just right (over months and months) i loathe the idea of starting from scratch. it can't be just me, does anyone have a clue?

If you download a Podcast _as a Podcast,_ then it should not appear in Music in the iTunes Library, it will be under Podcasts. Look under Library/Podcasts, not Library/Music/Podcast (genre).
Where a file or Podcast is located in iTunes depends on how the "file" has been tagged by the producer of the Podcast and how it has been downloaded by you. For instance, referring to what I stated above;
a Podcast should be in your *iTunes Library* under the section Podcasts. However, I have two individual programme episodes from the BBC (in the UK) that appear in the Library/Music section under a genre "Podcast" and this is incorrect. The BBC has tagged the file incorrectly, I believe.
(ii) if you download something "described as a Podcast" as an mp3 file, it will almost certainly end up under Library/Music. iTunes recognises a Podcast by the way it has been downloaded - and a Podcast is downloaded via a "Podcast feed".
Consider this: A programme created by someone can be available as a Podcast through the iTunes Store/Podcast section, it may be available through "juice", which is another Podcast aggregator, similar to the way iTunes gets them, or it may be on their website as an mp3 download. In all cases it will probably be described as a Podcast.
If you *Get Episode* from the iTunes Store Podcasts section, it will be in iTunes as a Podcast. However, if you use "juice" to obtain the same Podcast and then drag it into iTunes, it will not show up as a Podcast in the Podcast section. If you download the mp3 version from their website, it too will not show up as a Podcast.
I hope this has helped. (It's exhausted me!)

Podcasts in Smart Playlist not showing up on iPhone in iOS 5

Upon first syncing my iPhone to iTunes after uploading both to iOS 5 and iTunes 10.5, I noticed that my podcasts in Smart Playlists were not there, and coincidentally, the Smart Playlists were gone in iTunes (that's a different issue altogether).
The solution I found is that you have to sync the podcast Smart Playlist from the "Podcasts" tab on iTunes. I did this with my phone plugged in, but suppose that this would also work with a wi-fi sync.
Choosing the Smart Playlists from the "Music" tab will result in empty playlists on your phone.
Hope this helps!

I'm having the exact same issue on Mac OS 10.7.2 and iOS 5. There are some other posts on Podcasts not syncing with smart playlists. I haven't found a solution yet. Super annoying. I used to have a smart playlist of audio podcasts sorted by date. Now the Smart Playlist shows up on my iPhone - but it's empty. I've tried your solution but id didn't work for me. I've unchecked all Playlists in the Music tab and checked them in the Podcast tab and I've still got empty Smart Playlists on my iPhone. Let me know if you get any more info on this. I'd also like to add that this exact problem surfaced a while back with a previous iOS update.
Here are what I see as the variables in this problem...
Music tab:
• Playsts box (my Smart Playlists of Podcasts DO NOT show up here)
• Genres box (I've tried checking and unchecking the Podcast Genre)
Podcast tab:
• Automattically including ___ episodes of ____ podcasts (I've tried checking and unchecking this)
• List of indivudual podcasts with checkboxes (I've tried checking and unchecking them)
• Include Episodes from Playlists (I've tried checking and unchecking them)

Not able to create, deleted user again in OIM

Hi,
As part of our porcess we susped the user on the next day of his/her last working day. And after 20 days we are deleting that user from OIM.
Now the deleted user again re-hire into the organization. So we need to re-create the user in OIM.
But we are unable to create the user in OIM 11g. And it is showing error as "user already exist".
Then we found there is an entry for this user in OIM repository as usr_status as deleted. And also we are not able to see this user in the OIM admin console even there is an entry in repository.
Please help us how to solve this issue in creating the identity in OIM.
Thanks in advance
Siva

If you want to re-create a deleted user with the same user id then you need to set the re-use id property to true and also drop the unique key contraint from the USR table.

Not able to add/delete a device in the portal

Hi,
I got a new device from Apple, as my old Iphone 5 had a hardware defect.
Now I wanted to add the device in the portal, but after clicking on continue, I see "loading" all the time and nothing is happening anymore.
So I tried to delete my "old" one and getting an apache error..
Or is it just a temporary problem?
Any idea how to add the device in another way?
Cheers,
brasax

In the past it was working with Chrome.
Anyway, now I know it..
Any tips for the "activation problem"?

Podcast playlist not synced to iPhone 3gs, 3.1 iTunes 9

I have a manual playlist that I drag podcasts into so I can just listen to them all from start to finish without having to select and play each podcast. It's been working fine with all my iPods and my iPhone, until iTunes 9.
I drag the podcasts into the playlist. They are there and I can play them fine on my Mac. But the playlist isn't listed on the iPhone "Music" tab to select and sync. So doesn't sync. It does sync to my Nano 4g.
I hope this is a bug that will be fixed. I actually deleted the playlist and created a new one. It's NOT a smart playlist.
Has anyone else run into this? I'd love to know if it is working for someone.
iPhone 3GS, OS 3.1 iTunes 9. BTW all the podcasts play fine from the poecasts page on the iPod. I just don't like to have to manually play each podcast. Especially since so many are rather short.

I've managed to find a work around.
I subscribe to several podcasts and had a smart playlist ("media_kind = podcast" as the filter). The playlist was fine in iTunes, present on my iPod (120G Classic) but empty. Just started happening with upgrade to iTunes 9. This same configuration has worked fine for at least 1 year. Same MBP, same iPod....(I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard too)
I played around with the filter, switched it to "genre=podcast"....same thing. Seems ok in iTunes, won't sync with iPod.
I solved it by changing my smart playlist to use "Album contains <podcast_name>". I toggled the playlist to use "any" of the rules and then just added each podcast by name to the smart playlist. Now when I sync with my iPod, all the podcasts show up on the iPod in that playlist.
For smart playlists, it seems to matter which rules you use to create them. Some of the attributes don't work (media-kind, genre) don't work, others (like Album) work ok. I haven't tried all the applicable ones. Once I got it working, I stopped testing.

HT3819 how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
What am I doing wrong ?

Not able to drag new data control to my jsf

hi am not able to drag Queriable Attributes into the new query.jsf page and abl to Create it as a Query > ADF Query Panel.
this is what i have done
1.In the Application Navigator locate the adfc-config file under the Page Flows node in the ViewController project. Double-click it to open it in the editor. This is where you are going to define the application's navigation.
2.Drag the DeptEmpPage.jsf file from the Application Navigator into the empty adfc-config diagram.
3.From the Component Palette drag and drop a View component into the adf-config diagram, and rename it query. This represents the new JSF page that you are about to create.
4.From the Component Palette select Control Flow Case and then click on the DeptEmpPage and drag a line to the query page.
Name this line goQuery.
5.From the Component Palette choose another Control Flow Case and then create an opposite flow from the query page to the DeptEmpPage. Name this flow back.
6.Double-click the query view in the diagram to create the new page. In the Create JSF Page dialog accept the default Facelets radio button, and with the Quick Start Layout radio button selected, click Browse.
7.In the Component Gallery, retain the default One Column category, type and layout, but check the Apply Themes checkbox in the Options pane.
Click OK and OK again to create the page.
8.To add the employees search functionality to the page, open the Data Controls accordion, and locate EmpDetails1. (If you do not see it click the Refresh button).
am not able to Select All Queriable Attributes and drag it into the new query.jsf page. Create it as a Query > ADF Query Panel.

... and this solved the problem ?

I'm suddenly not able to drag certain photos to the desktop... Why?

I've been using iPhoto '08 (currently v. 7.1.5) for a few years and never had any issues until recently. Some photos I can drag to the desktop with no problem (old photos, recent imports, edited, it doesn't seem to matter). But some photos won't drag and drop -- I get the white circle with the slash through it. I can select the same photo and choose File>Export and that works fine. At the same time that issue started, I noticed another problem. I am sometimes not able to cut a photo from one event and paste it into another. Again, it is only affecting some photos (not all), and it doesn't seem to matter if they are old, new, edited, etc. I move photos in this way a LOT so this is really driving me crazy! I'm not sure if these issues are related, but it seems like they may be since they started at the same time. Any help would be appreciated. Please type slowly and use small words -- I only know enough to be a danger to my Mac. Thanks!

Not long after I posted my question, my hard drive completely failed. Needless to say, I didn't get a chance to try out your suggestion. Since I wasn't using Time Machine, it has taken my until just this month to get all my photos back into iPhoto. There were a few issues getting things back to normal (as far as recreating events and such), but so far I haven't had any problems with dragging photos where I want them. Not sure if it was the hard drive causing the issue to begin with or not. Either way, thanks for the info. If the problem comes back I will definitely give that a try.

I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts. All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window". But what if you have no device window?

Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
I thought the libraries were the same.

HT203167 i am not able to find or transfer one playlist to my phone. it was there for several months and no longer shows up. when i look at the songs, there are two songs for each of the playlist songs, but the one will not play, either on the computer

i am not able to find a playlist on my phone. i had it on the phone for months and now it is not there. i have tried to sny repeatedly and it does not show up. Help, how do I recover or get my favorite playlist back onto my phone

Hello,
While your BB may not, while in your possession, have been part of a BES environment, it nevertheless likely has an IT policy in place as this is one of the key symptoms of that fact. If it ever was part of BES, then there are specific steps that must be taken to remove the IT Policy...just removing it from BES does not remove the policy. The process to remove it is totally destructive, so be sure you back up first. Also, when you restore, DO NOT do a full restore...rather, do a selective restore of only those things you need...if you do a full restore, you will simply put that IT Policy back onto your BB and be right back where you started.
OK, so here is the procedure:

Hi BobRz
Thanks for you suggestion but it didn't work - are there other ways for solving this problem? Or is it because my files that I want to copy and paste onto my hard disk etc are too big? (However there is space on my hard disk and it works on a PC)
