Removing Podcasts from Nano Doesn't work!!!

OK Apple, what's going on? A quick search of this discussion area shows 34 pages of people having the same problem. Isn't it time to do something about it? GGGGRRRR!
I've tried sync'g my podcasts two different ways and in both cases, iTunes is updated properly, but the Nano itself is NEVER updated. The podcasts just sit there forever and I eventually get messages telling me that my Nano is out of space!!!
method one:
Set the podcast folder in iTunes to update automatically,
set the podcast option to "keep all unplayed episodes"
I make sure that I scrub episodes all the way to the end, then update my Nano.
This correctly updates the podcast listing.
I then update the podcast listing and listened to episodes are correctly removed from itunes.
I then update the Nano and NOTHING HAPPENS. The episodes are left there!!!
method two:
Set the podcast folder to manually update
create a smart playlist to include
all items with a genre of "podcast",
limited to only 25 items,
listed my most recently added.
I make sure that I scrub episodes all the way to the end, then update my Nano.
This correctly updates the smartplaylist & the podcast list.
I then update the podcast listing and listened to episodes are correctly removed from itunes.
The smartplaylist is correctly updated
I then update the Nano new podcasts are sync'd, but the OLD ONES ARE LEFT BEHIND!!
The only thing that seems to work is to fully reinitalize my Nano. What a waste of time.
Come Apple, you've got the new word of the year in "Podcast" and yet your own software can't deal with them.
I'm not going to keep reformating my Nano every month. Windows Media Player & Xplay is looking better & better.

Then please help "the user" with his error! How can I possibly have it set up such that my smartlist on my Nano works properly, my smartlist in iTunes works properly, and my podcast section of iTunes works properly, but the podcasts are still left on the memory of the nano???
Here are my settings (you find the error!)
1. Edit/Preferences/Podcasts:
Check for new episodes: everyday
When new episodes are avialable: download all
Keep: all unplayed episodes
2. Edit/Preferences/iPod/Podcasts:
Manually manage Podcasts
3. Edit/Preferences/iPod/Music
Automatically update selected playlist only:
!Podcast
4. Smart Playlist (called !Podcast):
Match ALL of the following rules
Genre is Podcast
Play count is 0
limit to 25 songs select by most recently added
live update
So, with this set up I should:
1. get all new podcasts and only keep those that are not listened to
2. have no sync'd of podcasts based on "podcast" rules
3. sync a Smart Playlist called "!Podcast"
4. have a smart Playlist called "!Podcast" with only the 25 most recent songs in the genre "podcast"
Where is the "user error"?
Sorry if I seem combative, but this is EVER frustrating.
Thanks in advance.

I have exactly the same issue and it is INFURIATING. I have done several factory resets. reinstalled iTunes, pretty much everything as above. Hours and hours of failed trial and error. I can get one proper sync. ONE. If I'm lucky, by wiping everything. Then will iTunes update reliably? NO. Exactly the above issue. (including huge "other" files from some of the failed syncs.)
Iphone 6, latest updates. Latest OS X, latest iTunes. This problem started in the last week or so with my iPhone 5 before I upgraded a few weeks ago. It has to be an issue with the new iTunes and its (in)ability to do proper syncing.

Why Position:Relative from CSS doesn't work at Safari 5.03?

If you watch my web page: http://clubdeleonesst.tk
I designed a ComboBox and have some problems with position relative. I used jQuery to create it, you could watch the original example here:
http://www.marghoobsuleman.com/jquery-image-dropdown
And I have been watching that the transparency from Flash doesn't work too. I hope you can solve these bugs.

The "disappearing" affect you describe is not normal. You may need to reinstall Safari.
First, try removing the Apple cookies from your Safari Preferences>Security>Cookies panel. Also, go to your Safari Menu and Empty cache. Then try to log-on to Apple Discussions.
Also, regarding the "disappearing" effect, try Safari from another User Account.
Here is guidance from Apple on how to set up the account. You can ignore step 7 in the article.
Also, on the system preference>Accounts panel, click on "log-in" options. There, select "fast user switching". This allows you to go back and forth between user accounts via an icon in your Menu Bar at the top of the computer screen.
Log-on to the new account and start Safari. If Safari is stable in the new account, then your problem is specific to your regular user account. Otherwise, similar response means a system-wide problem.
Post back with results.

"Exclude page from menu" doesn't work

Choosing Page > Page Properties > Menu Options > Exclude page from menus doesn't work for me in the current release. Anybody else having this problem?

Humm?
Just tested both your process and again by going to Plan View > rt-click on page > Menu Options and both instantly remove the page.
Have you tried just making simple/quick test site with 2-3 pages and trying?
Maybe somthing in your site and not in Muse that's causing the issue.

My nano doesn't work, cannot be find in Windows and itunes. please help!

Before it doesn't work, I am charging the battery.
But when I am about to disconnect it from the systme, Windows prompted "can't be disconnected", I tried several times, the same prompts. So I shut off the computer, but the nano doesn't work.
I have tried the 5-R steps, nothing changed.
there's only the picture of a file folder with an exclamation point comes up, and on the bottom it has apples support website, alternating with a apple logo.
The worst thing is that I cannot find my nano in the explorer, so I cannot restore/update or format it.
BTW, I have disconnected the nano from all power sources and left it disconnected for about 24 hours, reconnect to the USB port, a battery displayed on the screen, but for about 20s, display the the picture of a file folder aggain.
Please help!

Is McAfee Virus Scan installed on your computer? That could be interfering with your iPod when you try to eject it.

Edit in Photoshop from Lightroom doesn't work; Automate Photomerge doesn't work

Edit in Photoshop from Lightroom doesn't work.
It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
Likewise, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... I pick all the images for the PHotomerge and hit "okay," but nothing happens. Makes me think it's Photoshop, not Lightroom, that is all wacky.
I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1 Lightroom is version 5.7 Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
I uninstalled Photoshop CS5 and reinstalled. No change. I also tried dumping PS preferences, but that didn't affect a thing, either.

None of my "Edit In" worked with the pictures in Lightroom for a particular folder. I expanded the 2014 folder and found that two subfolders had a "?" in front of the 2014-07-04" and another. In other words, the folder was missing. After I found the missing folders using the Lightroom "Find Missing Folder" option, I was able to use the "Edit In" menu item. The 2014 folders weren't expanded at first, so I didn't see the ? marks in front of them. With the missing folders, Lightroom's "Edit In" option was basically telling me there was no picture to "Edit In." Howerver, I have Previews and Smart Previews made when I import picture files into Lightroom. So, the "pictures" showed in the slide strip on the bottom, and also in the display in "expand," but it was actually only showing the previews I had built, not the actual missing pictures in the missing folders. I had accidentally moved some directories using Windows Explorer, and I didn't realize my "happy fingers" moved them outside of Lightroom. Of course, Lightroom has no way of knowing I moved them, and just shows the "?" before the missing folder name. After expanding the root folder, then knew what to do. Fixed it easily. It was frustrating, and took about 20 minutes to see the problem. And that fixed the greyed-out "Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014, and all the other plug-ins were greyed out too.
Hope this fixes your problem.

When I insert headphones and then I remove them, volume control doesn't works.

When I insert headphones and then I remove them, volume control doesn't work more, and I have to operate on system preferences=>sound=>output volume. Whay does it happens and how can I fix it?

Yes, I am using 09 with out issues. Just have to remember to use "open with 09" or open pages 09 first then my document.
I create some amazing cards and posters with 09 that when on a PC I would have to use both Word and Publisher to create. Flipping back and forth.
Apple if you're listening please, give us back our layout options and even add a few more design options like beveled and 3D text.

Removing files from nano 6th gen: right clicking on selected file will not reveal a delete option, only play, get info, rate. Highlighted and hitting delete key doesn't work.

Trouble removing files from 6th gen ipod nano: right clicking on selected file will not reveal a delete option, only play, get info, and rate. Highlighting the file and hitting delete key doesn't work. Have run diagnostics and rebooted nano to no avail. This is my second 6th gen nano; this prob never occured with it. Will greatly appreciate any help.

Doink! I didn't realize it wasn't checked. Works perfectly now. Thank you for post!!

My iPod Nano doesn't work as it should...

I have just got my new iPod Nano. It's the 2gb model from the second generation. I was extremely happy, because it looks awesome and I thought that it would work same way.
The player is working perfect. Plays songs, really awesome.
But I have really BIG problems with iTunes. As I said I have got iPod today and everything is new and up-to-date - iTunes and I even somehow managed to update my iPod. Why somehow? I have extremely big problems with updating it. I think that it works okay now, but not at all. Everything is okay when I use an automatic system. I copy music I want to library, conect iPod then and everything copies perfect. The problems are starting when I try to manage iPod on my own - copy music etc. This simply doesn't work! When I try to change the system on non-automatic the error (-50) occurres and iPod cannot be updated. I even can't do this simple thing so there are no talks about deleting or copying music to iPod.
What can I do? That's simply driving me crazy :/
PS. Sorry for my English, but I'm from Poland. I don't know if the apple service exists here at all...

And I have one more question, when I connect my iPod,
iTunes turns on automatically and the iPod is seen,
but it's not seen in "My Computer". Is that ok?
Since you have the iPod set at auto sync the ipod would not show in "My Computer" (someone correct me if I am wrong). If you were able to successfully switch it to manual it would show as it would be in disk mode. So I would say that this is ok.
I have done a search for the error -50 you keep getting and can't find anything. At this point I would suggest contacting Apple support to see if they can give you some insight on this error. One thing though...have you tried uninstalling iTunes from your computer completely and then re-installing it to make sure it's not an issue with your current copy of iTunes? Also, have you tried to go through the 5 R's?
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
If you have not gone through the 5 R's, please try that first and see if it helps. If not, then try un-installing and then re-installing iTunes. If that does not work, then it would probably be beneficial to call Apple Support.

Remove podcasts from Artist and Album list

It makes it difficult to select a particular artist if the large number of podcasts that are subscribed appear in the Artist and Album list. The way files are organized in iTunes this is not a problem- but in iPod it is a hassle. Is it possible to remove podcasts appearing in the Artist and Album list in iPod?

NO... I'm having the same issues and a quick search of the web reveals that Podcasts in 11.1 is COMPLEATLY BROKEN!!!
I've spent two days trying to fix this issue even including deleting all of my podcasts and restoring from the App Store and nothing works!!!

Trying to delete podcast from nano (5th) but only seems to have disappeared from iTunes

My daughter set up my nano a few years ago by putting running songs on, which was all I wanted it for then . Am thinking about getting another Apple device so have been teaching myself how iTunes works and also other things about this neglected nano. I decided to try downloading a podcast through iTunes, which worked fine, with it showing in the podcast library and then transferred it on to the nano where it appeared correctly in the Podcast menu and played.
I don't actually want that podcast (was just using it to trial the process ) so tried to delete it from the nano. I thought I had followed instructions gathered from here (the user manual wasn't clear) which said I had to do it via iTunes.
Result: I have managed to delete the podcast from the library (shows as nothing in there) but it is still on the nano.
Woudl be very grateful for help on where I go from here!

Further report: I reset the nano, deleted everything and reloaded the music. It worked - no lingering unwanted podcast - but surely there must be a proper way to do this ?

IPod nano doesn't work at all

Just rec'd an iPod nano 2 gb about 2 weeks ago. Showed that it needed to be charged so attached to my Windows XP system (not a usb 2.0 port) and it still showed charging after two days. Tried the reset 8 billion times - no go. Now, nothing works on the iPod. Bought the power adapter and plugged it in and now it just makes a buzzing sound. I read somewhere to unplug it from all power sources for 24 hours - didn't work either. I have no idea why it doesn't work. Any other ideas?

"Any other ideas?"
Yes. As it's only 2 weeks ago since you got it, take it to an Apple store and get it exchanged for one that works. You shouldn't be jumping through hoops to get a brand new iPod working.

Delete messages from server when deleted from iTouch doesn't work

Hi everybody,
Two questions really...
One is that with my 2nd gen iTouch I was able to set IMAP settings and it would show all of the folders (other than Inbox) that I have created on my mail account. The 4th gen iTouch doesn't seem to let me see the sub-folders.
The second is that I have my account set to delete messages from the server when they are deleted from my Inbox, but that simply doesn't work.
This is withe the iTouch 4 and OS 4.1 (8B117)
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Is it possible that I have the wrong Server Port entered? I didn't fill in that field at all. I think it was filled in automatically. I guess I would have to contact my hosting company's support team to know what the server port is.
