"Recently added" playlist no longer capturing podcasts

Within the last 10 days, after downloading the newest version of iTunes to my Nano, I found that my "recently added" playlist contained only music tracks. Until the new download, the "recently added" music playlist HAD contained both music and podcasts. Because I do a lot of Nano listening while driving, this was real useful. Before starting the car, I could call up the "recently added" playlist and listen to the freshly added podasts, in order, without having to pick up the Nano and click-click-clisk after listening to each new podcast. What can I do to restore the Nano's old setting that captured podcasts in the "recently added" music playlist? The motoring public and I will thank you.

Problem solved, or rather dissapeared.
Went on my phone and closed music down. When I reopened it everything was correctly sorted.
Go figure.

  • After download ios5 my recently download podcasts do not appear in recently added playlist on my iphone. Anyway to change this?

    After download ios5 my recently download podcasts do not appear in recently added playlist on my iphone. Anyway to change this?

    I had this problem with some podcasts immediately after updating to iOS 5. In order to resolve the issue, I did this:
    1- Deleted/unsubscribed from all my podcasts.
    2- Synced to my iPhone.
    3- Resubscrubed to all my podcasts.
    4- Downloaded all podcast episodes I wanted. (You could instead restore from a backup if some episodes are no longer available for download.)
    5- Synced to my iPhone.

  • Do NOT want Podcasts in "Recently Added" Playlist

    Is there anyway possible to make it so Podcasts (voice AND video) are not placed into the "Recently Added" Playlist? I frequent this playlist for new music, but don't want to have to listen to the flip over a podcast everytime.

    I had the opposite problem - after creating an iTunes account, podcasts disappeared from the Recently Added playlist. I listen to quite a few and subscribe to many, so having all the new episodes in one place was pretty useful.
    By using the suggestion (in reverse) in your solution, the playlist's behavior was restored to its previous (desirable) state.
    Thanks!

  • Deleted recently added playlist how do i add back to playlist and make destination playlist for imports

    i deleted recently added playlist and want to add back, and make it destination for imported songs how do i do

    Howdy Mark,
    The Recently Added playlist is a Smart Album that has specific settings to automatically add new content to that playlist. It can be recreated manually if accidentally deleted, you can use this article named Archived - iTunes: How to create a Smart Playlist found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1801.
    Choose File > New Smart Playlist.
    To have iTunes add songs that match specific criteria, make sure to select "Match the following rule," then make your selections from the pop-up menus.
    For example, you might want iTunes to only add songs that are by a particular artist, or songs with at least a four-star rating.
    To add additional matching criteria, click the Add + button.
    Here are the parameters to use when you create the new Smart Album:
    1. Check the box that says Match the Following rule:
    2. Change the first set of criteria to Date Added, In the Last, 2, weeks.
    3. Add another line for criteria by clicking the + button
    4. The second set of criteria should be as follows. Media Kind, is not, podcast.
    5. Uncheck Limit To, and Match only checked items, and check Live Updating.
    That when that is done you will have a new smart playlist that you can rename to Recently Added by double clicking the smart album name.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • My "Recently Added" playlist has disappeared

    Help! My "Recently Added" playlist function seems to have disappeared. I'm sure my kids are responsible. I can't find the topic covered anywhere.
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    It's very easy to recreate it. Create a smart playlist with the condition "Date Added is in the last [however long]". Make sure live updating is enabled.

  • Lost recently added playlist

    i lost my recently added playlist, does anyone know how to add it back to my smart playlist?

    If you lost it on iTunes on a computer, choose New Smart Playlist from the File menu and create a new smart playlist which lists items added in the last 2 weeks, excludes podcasts, and is live updated.

  • Recently Added Playlists

    I accidentally deleted my recently added playlist, so I made a new one. It works fine and everything, but I was wondering if there was anyway for me to to set it so it only shows music. I don't want my podcasts or videos showing in it. Thanks.

    Control-click it, choose Edit Smart Playlist, and set it so that it excludes podcasts as well as items over the size of the largest song multiplied by 1.5.

  • Messed up Recently Added playlist syncing!

    Since I updated my iPhone 3G to 3.1 and iTunes to 9.0 I've noticed that my Recently Added playlist has not been syncing properly. It hasn't been updated on the iPhone since before I updated the software (iTunes + iPhone) even though I've since added more stuff to my library. The weird thing though is that the content that I've added recently does sync to my iPhone because I can find it if I search the phone but it just doesn't appear in the recently added playlist. The old stuff that does appear in my Recently Added playlist is now also in a mixed up order(not the way it appeared in iTunes).
    Another thing I've noticed is that some (although not all) podcasts are also in a mixed up order on the iPhone; not ordered by episode number or date! Scrolling through my podcasts has also become slow and "sticky" if you well; not as smooth as it usually is, same for videos(scrolling through my songs or playlists however, is normal).
    Have I missed something in the new syncing features in iTunes 9.0 or what's going on here? If I can't fix the problem would creating a new smart playlist with the same settings as the Recently Added playlist fix the problem..haven't tried that yet.
    Thanks for any help or guidance!
    Sam

    I have the exact same issue. Only, the order is correct, in reverse.
    I get the 50 First added songs, instead of the 50 Last added songs... I wonder what went wrong and if Apple will resolve this matter. Did you try to call for support?

  • Delete songs from iTunes library from "recently added" playlist

    can you please add a function that removes songs from both the entire library and the recently added playlist by simply right clicking a song while in the "Recently Added" playlist that has the "Delete" function. this is very simple and would make iTunes that much more user friendly.
    thanks!
    i have no idea where else to submit suggestions like this, apple people aren't user-friendly enough.

    can you please add a function that removes songs from both the entire library and the recently added playlist by simply right clicking a song while in the "Recently Added" playlist that has the "Delete" function
    We are only other users, such as yourself.
    You can send suggestions to Apple here -> http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    Press *Shift Delete* to delete songs from a playlist and also from the library.
    (from your signature block)
    pc, duh
    Not really "duh". I have a pc and it is a Macintosh.
    The idea is to put correct info in your signature to help with problems you may be having As an example, if you had problems with your iTunes library disappearing and your signature showed "Sony Vaio", immediately we would know the Sony media software is the problem.
    why do you care
    So we don't have to ask when you post a question.

  • I accidently deleted my "recently added" playlist. how do I get it back?

    I'm very new to itunes and having trouble getting the hang of it.
    I was trying to clean up some playlist files and was attempting to delete songs I didn't want or need. I hit shift-delete and all of sudden EVERYTHING disappeared. the songs I had purchased... stuff I had recently uploaded... everything.
    I went to the recycle bin and hit "restore" in the hopes that things would come back, but no luck.
    I was able to search my computer and get the songs I needed back, but it was quite frustrating. in addition, one of the things that disappeared that I wasn't able to retrieve was the "recently added" playlist, which was actually quite helpful to me.
    I attempted to upload a new CD to see if it would recreate the "recently added" list, but no luck.
    how do I get that back and make sure that future uploads are automatically saved to that playlist?
    thanks in advance for any help.

    In iTunes go to File>New Smart Playlist
    Recently Added:
    Match the rule "Date Added">"is in the last">"1">"Days" make the days and the interval to suit yourself, you can have days, weeks or months.
    Check the box "Live Updating"
