Upgraded iTunes: now cannot see the Podcasts on my iPod nano

I know it sounds odd but I am genuinely sad that I have not been able to use my iPod for two days:
I bought an iPod nano when they first came out and have been very happy with it. Two days ago I upgraded iTunes for the first time (to 7.6.2.9). Since then I have not been able to "see" the Podcasts on my Nano from iTunes.
This is an issue because it is mostly full of music which I'd rather not delete, and the remainder is Podcasts which I download, load, and delete every day.
If I cannot delete the old Podcasts, I cannot fill it up with new ones.
The first thing I did was to upgrade the iPod firmware (to 1.3.1) but I still can't see the Podcasts. I have tried to read the documentation and go through all settings in iTunes, look on the web but with no success.
My friend has a similar generation iPod and iTunes (~7.5). On this version of iTunes, the Podcasts are also gone. When I plug in my friend's iPod it has a Podcast icon as well as the Music icon. The older version of iTunes let me, I think, see the Podcasts together with the Music.
Could I somehow have "deleted" a Podcast icon which iTunes need? Can it be restored save for wiping my beloved iPod clean? Can I gracefully downgrade to an old version of iTunes without losing my Music/Podcast library?
Is anyone familiar with the problem?
Regards,
Allan

Allan is this the same problem I have - downloaded a couple of chapters of a podcast onto nano - and they played fine - although I had to search for them to find them. Then connected to computer and wanted to search to delete them but no search brings them up? If it is the same, have you resolved your issue? I have same problem that no more room to store so I want to get rid of the listened to podcasts.(ps I'm on windows not mac) Thanks, Ele

  • I upgraded to iOS8 on my iphone and now cannot see the thumbnails of my pictures when I try to download onto my computer.

    I have an iphone 4 and an HP Pavillion with windows 7.  I always have been able to connect my iphone to my laptop and open
    the DCIM folder and see the picture icons so I can pick the ones I want to download.  After upgrading to iOS8 I cannot see the icons after a
    few seconds of connecting the phone to the computer.  They all turn into the windows icon.
    I do not want to try the icloud for windows control panel unless I can pick the pictures that will be transferred.  I don't want all the pictures I take on my computer.

  • ITunes 8.2.1 cannot see the podcasts in iPod touch

    I upgraded to iTunes 8.2.1 now.
    Then iTunes downloaded some new/recent podcasts.
    When I synced my iPod touch, iTunes showed this message:
    The iPod "<my iPod name>" cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes Library (10.6GB required, 2.06GB available).
    My iPod touch (with 3.0 OS) still contains about 9GB of podcasts,
    but iTunes doesn't show it when I click on Devices->iPod touch.
    My iTunes library shows all podcasts intact on my PC.
    Checking Podcasts->Sync->all and All podcasts doesn't work.
    If I could delete all podcasts on the iPod, I would, but there are like thousands and there is no "Delete" for a certain podacast folder.
    I could only delete one by one, which I don't want to do because
    there are like 1700+ of my Japanese audio lessons.
    Please help me!

    Neither method worked. Replacing the music library and rolling back to 8.2 (after deleting four iTunes-related plist files) resulted in the same problem - everything syncs but my Music. I also reset the iPod Touch but that didn't make a difference.
    The interim solution I found is to add Music to my iPod manually. I set my iTunes iPod Preferences to manually update the iPod and drag and drop away. A pain, but at least I can use the iPod until I figure out how to get Music to automatically sync again.

  • How come with the new itunes, I cannot see the entire screen in itunes store?

    Now in itunes store, the bottom goes into my bottom windows bar.  The View - Options does nothing in Itunes store.
    Minmize does not help

    As far as I know it should work like it always has. Can you see the sidebar in iTunes? If not, go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu, then click on your iPad on the left sidebar, then click on the Movies tab in the window on the right.

  • I recently upgraded itunes. now i get the error message that itunes can't connect and the network connection has timed out

    i keep getting an error message that states

    Try temporarily disabling your firewall and see if you are then able to access the iTunes store.

  • Can I sort my Podcasts on my IPOD, NANO by episode from oldest to newest and if so how?

    I have an Apple, IPOD, NANO, purchased in 2009:
    Problem: I would like to have a Podcast Playlist sort podcast episodes from oldest to newest broadcast date; I have done so on my P.C. based ITunes player and have synced same to my IPOD NANO; however, when I do so the podcasts on my IPOD NANO are not sorted from oldest to newest; rather, from newest to oldest.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
    Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
    You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
    Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

  • I upgraded my iPad and now I cannot see the mail boxes, I upgraded my iPad and now I cannot see the mail boxes, I upgraded my iPad and now I cannot see the mail boxes

    I upgraded my iPad to the newest version of iOs and now the body of the message is covering the full screen and cannot see the list of mailboxes, I have no idea of what to do to fix this.

    That view is the normal view in the portrait orientation. If you are in portrait, swipe left to right and the mailbox list shows up. If you are in landscape, then that isn't right.
    Restart or reset the iPad and see if that helps.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    You can also try quitting mail and restarting.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by e w the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Upgraded to 10.6.1.7 as prompted and now cannot see any music purchased since March 23, 2012.  How can I get these back?

    Upgraded to 10.6.1.7 as prompted and now cannot see any music purchased since March 23, 2012.  How can I get these back?
    The error message says it cannot find the file but it exists as it was transferred to my ipod.
    Thanks.

    Ack! We don't need that much.
    What you posted looks like the iTunes Library.xml file  I will let you read about how iTunes works but not only is the .xml not your main library it is just the listing of tracks in your library and where the music files should be located.  Your music is actually in media files (by the way, it is pointless to zip those as they are already compressed).  Anyway, read these and you will see that your true library file (iTunes Library.itl) is only a small, but still important, part of a complete library.
    What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
    More on iTunes library files and what they do - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes#Media_management

    Where are my iTunes files located? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
    As you can see, a library has several components, so "getting it back" depends upon what is missing, what it was you actually backed up in the end, if any of this music was purchased from the iTunes Store, etc.

  • I cannot see the Source List in iTunes. How do I get it back? Thanks!

    I cannot see the Source List in iTunes. How do I get it back? I am trying to eject my ipod classic, and there is no option to do so, because I cannot see the ipod, let alone the source list in itunes. I'm also unable to restore my ipod, and I get a message saying it is corrupt,and now I can't even eject it! What do I do?!? Thanks!

    Hello twangchick,
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
    You can use the steps in this article to view the device list in iTunes and eject your iPod. The steps are slightly different for the different version of iTunes:
    Locate and view your connected iPhone, iPad or iPod touch in iTunes - Apple Support
    I know it can be frustrating to have a device that isn't working as it should, and this link may also help with restoring your iPod classic:
    Restoring iPod to factory settings - Apple Support
    If your iPod can't be restored normally, try placing it into Disk Mode. See the instructions under "iPod devices with a Click Wheel" in this article:
