Some podcasts don't sync

I've recently began having this problem - some podcast files don't get transfererd to my 60G video ipod. Some podcasts have new, unplayed files that don't seem to get recognized for transfer to the ipod, no mater what I do. I've tried various settings, including sync all podcasts; I've tried deleting the podcasts and redownloading them; etc.
I believe this problem may have started happening when I updated to iTunes 7.0 (and updated my iPod at the same time) but I'm not sure.

The podcast publisher says that there appears to be a technical issue with iTunes 7, however he believes that he has found a workaround. I will let you know when the problem is fixed, so maybe he can share the details with other publishers that are having problems.

    Try swiping your finger across the podcast then tap Delete.

  • Some songs don't sync! iPhone 5 (ios7.0.2), iTunes 11.1.1

    Last week I tried to sync my iphone and iTunes said I had to install the latest version to do so.
    After I installed the 11.1.1, some songs don't sync with the iPhone.
    On the 'on this iPhone' tab on iTunes it shows this same songs with a circle before the name, and they are grey, not black as the ones that are on the iPhone.
    I've tried to find out what's wrong, even wondered if I did something to mess this up, but I can't figure it out. 
    Help? Anyone?
    The 'on this iPhone' list look like this:

    Hello Laura,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to sync your music to your iPhone.
    I recommend trying to resync.  You can resync content to the iPhone by unchecking "Sync Music" and then clicking "Apply" and then checking "Sync Music" and then clicking "Apply" again:

    Hola, tengo un Ipod classic de 80GB, me he suscrito a algunos podcast y los he pasado a mi Ipod, pero no se cual sea la causa de que ya no veo algunos de ellos desde hace unos dias. Lo que recuerdo es solo haber conectado mi Ipod a la PC y descargar otros podcast. Los podcast que ya tenía no los he borrado de mi Ipod, en la sección de Podcast en Itunes aparecen esos podcast. he tratado de pasarlos nuevamente al Ipod, pero aparentemente hace la transferecia pero no lo veo en mi Ipod. No se si con esto, este duplicandolos.
    ¿Alguna sugerencia?
    Gracias

    Does anyone know why this happened.

  • Some podcasts won't sync to iPhone

    Got a iphone 3GS running 4.0 iOS and when i synced my iPhone to the iTunes, some of the podcasts wouldn't sync. ALL the podcasts are the same format! all are mp4. I double checked. I have no idea why they won't sync. Any ideas?

    Interesting... I'd be curious to know whether other subscribers to the podcast experience any similar issues. Regarding the situation with playback on the computer, I'd suggest checking to make sure your computer meets iTunes' system requirements, in terms of processor speed and RAM. To locate this information on your machine, right click on My Computer and choose Properties. The details of the requirements can be located by going to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/.
    If you meet the system requirements, I'd attempt a clean reinstall:
    Go into Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
    Remove these applications:
    1. Apple Software Update
    2. Apple Mobile Device Support
    3. iPod for Windows (may or may not be there, either way is fine)
    4. iTunes
    5. QuickTime
    Restart the computer
    Download & Install the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    Launch the Utility: Start > Programs > Windows Install Clean Up
    Select any of the above mentioned applications, and click Remove
    Restart the computer again
    Download & install iTunes again from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If this still does not resolve the issue, you could update your video drivers on the computer via your Device Manager, or by consulting the website for your PC's manufacturer.
    You might also want to unsubscribe/resubscribe to the podcast, which should afford you the option to re-download the episodes. If and when you do this, temporarily disable your anti-virus and firewall software to avoid any possible interferences that might be causing you issue.
    Regarding the episodes that will not sync to the iPod, you could try right clicking on the file and choosing the option to Convert Selection for iPod. This ought to give you two copies of the file in iTunes... then connect the iPod to sync it, and see if the episode syncs to the iPod.

  • Some podcasts don't flow into smart folders

    I've noticed that every once and awhile I have to do a COMMAND+I/INFO/Genre and relabel all the podcasts in itunes to be "podcasts".  A few years back itunes never required that.  For some reasons all podcasts don't automatically flow into the smart folder when podcast is picked as a genre -- so the only thing I can assume is that genre is not reliable anymore as a way to make podcasts flow into a smart folder, especially if the publisher doesn't describe it that way, and instead calls it "business podcast."
    -Kate

    I have solved the problem!  I wanted to document the solution here in case anyone else encounters the same problem.  The key is to select all of the podcasts and click "Get Info" (this allows you to change IDL tags for the entire group all at once) and then type in a name for the album.  Once the set of podcasts has an album name associated with them, they show up in the "podcast" section on my iPod Touch.

  • Downloaded films/ some podcasts don't work

    I'm not 100% sure this is too do with quicktime, but since i downloaded the latest version, whenever i try to watch a downloaded film through torrents, or some podcasts on itunes, after a few minutes of watching the screen freezes on a particular still, but the audio continues. this has only began to happen since i downloaded the latest version of quicktime!
    help!

    Some podcast video files are not compatible with play on iPod. iTunes should warn of this during sync, unless you have told it to not warn you by checking the do not tell me again box in the warning dialog.
    Check with the podcast producer. Sometimes they have different versions of the files to subscribe to.

  • Some song don't sync *no warning*

    So for some reason whenever I sync my iphone some song just wont sync. They're imported into itunes, and show up there, but whenever I sync they don't show up. Yes they are selected to sync, and yes I've tried doing a soft reset and even a restore. I've also tried it on an iphone 4 and the same thing happens. I've reinstalled itunes with no luck. Any clues?

    Couple of thoughts...If these are purchased songs your computer must be athorized for the ID used to purchase them or they won't sync.  Also, if you have checked these songs and they won't sync, confirm that you have checked "sync only checked songs and videos" on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings.

  • Podcasts don't sync

    My ipod worked really well until last week. Started playing it all night. Now when I sync it won't remove unwanted content or add new podcasts.
    I've even deleted stuff from the playlist and now it won't sync the playlist.
    so I restored it to factory condition (successful restore. didn't fix issue)
    updated all the software
    created this account in community
    synced about 12 times
    there are new podcasts in my podcast section. They won't go on my ipod.
    Tells me I don't have room for everything, will put as much as it can.
    So I checked manually manage and still no joy
    What to do?

    I'm not 100% sure about this.  I know some users have just created an On-The-Go playlist for their podcats.  They added the podcasts to the playlist in the order they wanted them to play in and it worked just fine when they listen to that playlist.
    I know you can also set up a Smart Playlist in iTunes for the podcasts (sorted by Date) and then sync that to your iPod.

  • Some songs don't sync in one smartlist (possible BUG of itunes)

    Hi,
    I have one smartlist with 200 songs in itunes. After I sync with my iphone and the same smartlist have 190 songs inside the phone.
    The files listen ok in itunes and in the iphone (in other lists).
    Can be a bug of itunes? Is not the first time that this success me.
    Please, help! I don't know what I can do!
    Thank you!
    PS sorry for my poor english, I'm spanish speker.

    I checked "Match only checked items" in smartlist and "Sync only checked songs and videos" in iphone menu. However the problem persist.
    I discovered what is the problem. The problem arises when you use the "comment" tag in the SmartList. In other SmartList that do not use the "comment" tag this problem does not happen.
    One way to fix this is to delete the album and then add it again to itunes:
    1) delete the album that gives you problems with SmartList
    2) sync iphone
    3) add the album again.
    4) sync iphone again.
    5) Now the SmartList that uses the "comment" tag appear correctly on the smartlist in iphone.
    And I insist that the SmartList in itunes always go well, it's just on the phone where don't work anytimes!
    Incredible. I hope that apple will solve this bug. Besides, this does not happen with all the albums, only with some albums! So I have to watch each SmartList in iphone that the sync run well.
    ahh what a horror! I have hundreds of lists!! I'll go crazy!

  • Podcasts don't sync, but songs do. Why?

    I downloaded a bunch of songs today and a couple of podcasts, then synced my iPod. The songs all synced, buy the podcats didn't, although I can see them listed in iTunes.
    What am I doing wrong? (If it matters, my iPod in in my iPhone).

    When you connect the iPod (iPhone) and select it in the sidebar of iTunes, there is a separate tab for Podcasts. You have to select the setting on that tab to sync your podcasts.
    (I don't have an iPhone, but I'm assuming it works the same way as a regular iPod.)

  • Some Faces Don't Sync to FaceBook

    When I sync tagged photos from iPhoto to FaceBook, some of the faces link to their FaceBook accounts and others don't (their names aren't hyperlinked to their accounts).
    I've searched around the Apple Community for an answer, but so far nothing I've found has resolved the issue. I went through Contacts and eliminated duplicate entries and entered in the FaceBook usernames and e-mail addresses for the affected faces, but after tagging those people and sharing to FaceBook, they still weren't linked. I can't see any common difference between the Faces that link and those that don't either.
    Any ideas? Thanks!

    In the iPhoto faces window you need to make sure that the correct fact book email address for the person is entered into their info there - that may not be updated form contacts

  • Some podcasts don't allow pause.  Why?

    On some of the podcasts (appears to be the ones that don't give duration), the listener cannot pause while listening. Why is this? Is there anything that can be done about it?

    I can't say I've noticed the "will not pause" issue, but I have noticed the ones that don't give a time in the iTunes Store. I suggest you contact the Podcast's producers and tell them of the issue you have. It's their Podcast, they create it, control it and fill in all the boxes and so on that are needed. However, they may not realise there is a problem for the listener.
    What Podcast programmes are you having an problem with? Maybe I have episodes I can test.

  • Some Podcast Playlists not syncing from itunes to ipod

    There's no problem with the actual podcasts syncing to my ipod and they play on the ipod.  The playlists are the same in both itunes and the list of podcast playlists on the ipod tab in itunes.  I've reset the plays, deselected and reselected, set them to not auto delete.  I've 'Marked as Watched' and then 'Marked as Unwatched'.  All the playlists are set up the same way.  I've tried sycing using both methods of 1, using the 'File> Devices>Sync xxxx etc and 2, the sync tab in bottom right corner of the 'Podcasts' tab(ipod tab in itunes when ipod connected).

    Just a stab:
    The song titles need to have a check mark next to them in order to sync.
    Thanks ... Ken

  • Older unplayed podcasts don't sync

    On several podcasts to which I subscribe, I have older (non-current) unheard episodes which I am unable to sync to my iPod. iTunes is set to sync "all unplayed" episodes, but it only seems to sync NEW unplayed episodes. For example, in one podcast I have listened to the five most recent episodes, but not to the sixth. As I continue to download new episodes they will sync, but these older unplayed episodes will not.
    I have verified that I am using the most current version of iTunes and the most current iPod software. I also tried restoring my iPod, but the problem persists. Based on comments here, I have double checked to see if the podcasts are being added into a playlist, or if I can find them under Genre -> Podcasts on the iPod, but they aren't there.
    iPod Nano 1GB   Windows XP   iPod and iTunes software are current

    I'm having the same trouble that you're having. I discovered my favorite podcasts long after they were created, and I would like to catch up.
    iTunes currently syncs "most recent", "most recent unplayed", and "most recent new." I would love for a fourth option: "Least Recent Unplayed." Only three at a time, of course, because I have a iPod Nano.
    Manual syncing is fine and all, but it's not automatic.
