Podcasts show up as music and not podcasts

All of my podcasts synch to my iPhone as music and do not show up under podcasts. They do show up as podcasts in my iTunes. Does this happen to anyone else or does anyone know a solution to this?

After selecting the orange “iPod” button on the bottom right of the iPhone screen then follow the directions from page 66 of the iPhone User’s Guide (below) to replace one of the Browse Buttons with the Podcasts icon.
Changing the Browse Buttons at the Bottom of the Screen
You can replace the Playlists, Artist, Songs, or Videos browse buttons at the bottom of the screen with ones you use more. For example, if you listen to podcasts a lot and don’t watch many videos, you can replace the Videos button with Podcasts.
Tap More and tap Edit, then drag a button to the bottom of the screen, over the button you want to replace.
If you like, drag the buttons at the bottom of the screen left or right to rearrange them.
When you finish, tap Done.
Tap More at any time to access the browse buttons you replaced.

HT203180 How come my Ipod will upload music and not podcast? It has uploaded them in the past.

I have downloaded a couple of podcasts and they won't sync to my ipod. In the past they would upload, but I haven't gotten podcasts in a few years. I am confuzed because I thought it was suppose to sync whild your songs synced to your ipod. Am I missing something? Thanks

Double check to make sure podcasts are configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.
To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it. Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.

Video Podcasts show up as Music

Here is my problem:
I downloaded a couple video podcasts from iTMS and copied them to my ipod. They play fine in iTunes, but on my ipod they dont show up anywhere in the video section, only in the music section. When I 'get info' within iTunes they both show as 'Movie' in the Movie Kind field. I am using iTunes version 6.0.2.23 (Windows), Cd Driver 2.0.43, Cd Driver DLL 2.0.3.2, Ipod Video 30G, Version 1.0.
Now for some additional info...
When I am transfering the video to the ipod, I am doing this manually because I use both my home and work machines with my ipod.
Here are some things I have tried:
I first attempted to download the video podcasts using iTMS on my work machine with the result being that the videos showing up under my music and not showing up under video anywhere.
I downloaded a video (not using iTMS) on my work machine and then imported it into the library and then manually copied it to my ipod and it worked just fine.
I attempted to 'Convert The Selection For Ipod' within iTunes (again work machine) for the iTMS downloaded video podcasts and it tells me that the files were not converted because they are already in the correct format. I am wondering if the problem is somehow related to the fact that these files have been downloaded through the podcast subscription? I cant see any reason why, but just throwing some things out there.
I attempted to download the video podcasts using iTMS on my home machine with the same results. As a last effort at this time, I tried the transfer again, and left it to transfer overnight.
Using a different computer (not work or home) I rebuilt Windows XP Pro from scratch. The only thing installed was service pack 2, then installed the same version of iTunes (6.0.2.23) and had a slightly different experience. One of the podcasts in questions did the exact same thing, that is showing up under music and no video playing. The other podcast however ended up showing up and played fine. Now my problem is I dont know if the new machine transferred it correctly or if it was transferred correctly from my home machine the night before (I overlooked checking it before attempting the transfer on the new machine.) I have since then attempted to transfer the problem file on the new machine and it failed again.
Now, has anyone managed to experience and resolve this issue? I know that I should update the ipod to 1.1 and try again, but since I have read about all of the problems with video on the new version I am a little hesitant to do that. Anyone have any suggestions on what ot try next, or am I going to have to bite the bullet and upgrade the ipod?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
Ipod Video 30G Version 1.0 Windows XP Pro

OK, tried some new things, here is the latest update:
I went ahead and bit the bullet, upgraded to 1.1. Deleted the video files from the music section of the ipod and then attempted to manually transfer the files. Still, the same symptoms occured.
Next step, performed a restore on the ipod (using the latest updater (thus retaining version 1.1), then set the ipod to sync with itunes on the work machine. Videos uploaded fine, show up in the Videos section and even play as videos on the ipod! Now we are getting somewhere.
Once I arrived home, I plugged the ipod into my home machine, told it yes, that I wanted to delete the content and attach the ipod to itunes on my home machine. Once all my music downloaded to the ipod, I subscribed to the video podcasts, they downloaded, then I synced the ipod, and they show up in the video section and play as videos. Everything seems to work fine!
My next step will be to disable auto sync and manually add some video podcasts to the ipod and see if it will function then. I will update the thread once that is complete.

I recently bought a 4th generation ipod shuffle. Am I able to have both music and audio podcasts loaded on it at the same time?

I have not been able to include both music and audio podcasts on my shuffle at the same time. Is this possible with the shuffle?

I disabled all my computer's firewalls and sure enough, IT WORKED!! My iPod is updated and just now finishing restoring! Thank you SOOOO SOOO much. : D

Back up music and not tv shows

I am trying to transfer my music library from my desktop to my laptop and I figued the easiest way to do this would be to back all my music up to a disk and then load onto the laptop but when I go to backup my library it won't because it says i need a dvd but cd so that the tv shows can go on it. What I want to know is if there is a way to backup just the music and not the tv shows?

Use a smart playlist that excludes video content as the rule. When you have the smart playlist made, simply burn your data discs to backup that playlist.

How to show the break totals and NOT the report totals in an SQL report

APEX 4.0.1
In an normal SQL report (Not interactive) with a break applied on the first column, how do you just show the break totals and NOT the extra full report totals?
Next, Is it possible to display only some of the row totals and not for all columns that have the sum option checked against them?

When I send attachments this way some people can't save them. They can see them but not save them.
Any ideas?

They are received as attachments, i.e. icons. What you see is the real image on your disk, and only if small enough to be displayed. Otherwise, they are small icons inserted in the text.
Additionally, when you place an image in the message, you will find an option in the lower right corner, otherwise absent. Use it, if need be.

I used a partitioned HDD for time machine, using a partition already containing other data files. I am now no longer able to view that partition in Finder. Disk Utility shows it in grey and "not mounted". Any suggestions of how to access the files?

Yes, sharing a TM disk is a bad idea, and disks are cheap enough so that you don't need to.

Have you tried to repair the disk yet

My ipod touch 4th Gen doesn't show me the music and videos

My ipod touch 4th Gen doesn't show me the music and videos I have, even though I can see it all in the I tunes and I can see that the ipod memory is full as it was... What to do???

Not compatible.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB

If you log out of your apple ID on your iPad and let someone else use it and they use facetime. How come it shows my facetime history and not theirs? I do not want them to have access to my history. How can I prevent that and they can see their own?

If you log out of your apple ID on your iPAD mini and let someone else use it and they use facetime. How come it shows my facetime history and not theirs? I do not want them to have access to my history. How can I prevent that and they can see their own? Or is the history associated with the iPAD mini itself and not the actual icloud user account?

You are logging out from
Settings -> FaceTime, right?
My guess would be though, that the FaceTime history is stored locally on the device, so anyone using it will see the entire device history (I cannot imagine that FaceTime uploads the history to an Apple server anywhere - I'm sure it is just logged locally on the device - based on my iPhone and iPad show completely different histories, for example).

When I open iTunes using Vista its showing up as com and not iTunes

Vista is an operating system... you do not open anything with it.
What do you mean "its showing up as com"? What is "com"?
Maybe try posting in your native language so that we have a better understanding of what the real issue is.

What do you do when your contacts with IPHONES or IPADS are not showing up in blue in IMESSAGE on my IPAD. The are showing up in RED and not allowing me to IMESSAGE them at all.

It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did.
Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!

I want to use iTunes Match but want to make make sure music will be downloaded from my iPhone (which has all my music) and not just my MacBook to the cloud.

Hi,
All your music need to be in your iTunes library on your computer. You will need to copy your music from your iPhone to your computer.
