Why can't I copy (not just make an alias) podcasts to other playlists?

I want to make list/s of important podcasts to keep apart from the automatically updating/deleting new podcasts, and I might also want to make Smart Playlists of podcasts. Why can't I do this? When I copy a podcast into another playlist, it goes away as soon as the original is deleted.

The files are on your HD once. Every file is in the Library. What's in the Playlist is a reference or pointer to the file in the Libary. If the file is deleted from the Library then it's not available to the playlist. If this makes no sense to you. consider the waste of disk space if a file was duplicated everytime it was added to a playlist.

  • Why can't I copy from Microsoft 2011 Word to apple postage stamp email?

    Why can't I copy from Microsoft 2011 Word to apple postage stamp email?

    You probably ended up purchasing a Mac OS X 10.6.3 DVD. I have posted previously about this. I will edit this once I find the post again.
    10.6.3 is incompatible with the Mac Pro you are using. You must install the version that came with your computer or newer. (Yours came with 10.6.4)
    If you do not have the original discs:
    There is another way to do this that I just remembered when one of my co-workers asked me if I had a 10.6.6 disc.
    You need two macs: NEW and OLDER.
    Connect NEW and OLDER via firewire cable. (NEWER is probably firewire 800, so you may need a firewire 400-800 adapter or cable)
    Boot NEW into "Target Disk Mode" by holding down 'T' at boot until the Firewire logo (looks like a Y) appears.
    Boot to Install Disc in OLDER.
    Once you have booted to the install disc, it is the same process as installing it onto the internal drive, except you need to choose the Drive in the other computer as the target drive. The drive that you want to install to will look like it's a firewire drive (so it will look like a mounted usb drive but with that 'Y' symbol on it.)
    MAKE SURE NOT TO INSTALL OVER THE GOOD DRIVE!!!!!
    Go ahead and install Mac OS X.
    Once it finishes installing and OLDER shuts down hold down the 'Option' key right after the chime. Select the drive that you just installed Mac OS X on. It should appear just as it did in the Installer.
    Once it has booted and you have logged in: run software update and update to the latest version of the OS. Once you have finished updating, shutdown the computer. Unplug the firewire cable. Turn off NEW, then turn it back on. It should work properly.

  • Why can't I copy photos from my new Sony camera to my iphone4?

    Why can't I copy photos from my new Sony point and shoot to my iphone4? It works with photos from my old camera, just not with the new one. When I sync photos to my phone, they come out black. Help!

    It's possible they aren't in the right format. See this list to verify you have the correct format. I know some Sony cameras use the ARW interface (known as RAW).
    You may want to use a photo converter like photoshop, etc. to get photos into .jpeg or other file formats.

  • Why can't I copy a file to memory stick

    Why can't I copy a MP4 file to my memory stick? I keep being told theres no room ... but there is room.
    The memory stick has a capacity for 16 GB. But the Get Info command tells me 1.3 GB are being used. But Ive erased the memory stick and dont understand how there could be any files still on it ... unless "erase" doesnt erase them all and some "invisible files" are still there somehow.
    Ive formated it using the MSDOS Fat 32 format.
    When I try to copy a 5 GB MP4 file I get a message that says:
    "the item cant be copied because it is too large for the memory stick's format."
    Im at my wits end. There should be plenty of room opn the stick ... but apparently theres not. Is this something to do with partitioning?
    Many thanks ...

    MSDOS FAT32 has 4GB file size limit.
    exFAT is the format you need.

  • Why can't I copy and paste the music from my iPhone on iTunes 11 to a folder in my Music Library?

    Why can't I copy and paste the music from my iPhone on iTunes 11 to a folder in my Music Library? I want to have a copy of the music on iTunes so when I update to a newer version of iOS I don't lose my music. And no I didn't buy this music off iTunes and neither will I use iTunes Match.

    There has never been a function to copy anything from an iPhone and paste it to a computer.
    All of your media should be in iTunes already.
    If it is not and was purchased from iTunes, right click on the device and select Transfer Purchases.
    If the media is not in iTunes and was not purchased from iTunes, how did you get it on the device in the first place?

  • Why can I receive but not send emails

    Why can I receive but not send emails on my i pad?

    Perhaps the outgoing mail server settings are incorrect or incomplete.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • Why can my magic trackpad not be found?

    Why can my magic trackpad not be found? It was working fine before the upgrade.

    Ok, I found the problem. I guess the trackpad powers down at 15% because it came on for a brief moment for me to see that my batts were low.  I must have bad rechargeable batteries, I put these in just last week ago and they are dead. I guess it was just a coincidence that is happened at the same time of the upgrade. The green light would come on and it made me think all was ok.

  • Why can't I copy an image or vector from Illustrator CC and paste to Fireworks CS6?

    Why can't I copy an image or vector from Illustrator CC and paste to Fireworks CS6? This was possible with Illustrator CS6. I know they are different versions but since there is no Fireworks CC, is there a fix update???

    Yes, other users have complained about that. Unfortunately, Fireworks' development was halted a year ago, and I would be surprised if Adobe spends any money or time to fix bugs and interoperability issues in Fireworks. I would not expect any real updates or fixes.
    Tough to swallow, but FW is dead in the water and EOL'ed.

  • Why can't I copy an email to pages and have it wrap to the page?

    Why can't I copy an email to pages and have it wrap to the page margins?

    Just do a Remove All.
    I would first find two consecutive EOL characters and replace with an extra line feed or a visible marker like an ampersand. Then Remove All EOL characters. Then replace all the all the ampersands with a CR/LF. It's pretty quick. A lot quicker than trying to remove 500 EOL characters one at a time.
    Or, ask the sender to create the document in a word processor, zip it, then send it to you.

  • Why does Lion KEEP reversing changes you make in address book and other applications without your consent and without wanting it to??? Plus address book will NOT import old address book contacts from Snow Lepoard 10.6 and keep them.  This Lion OXS 7 is ..

    Why does Lion KEEP reversing changes you make in address book and other applications without your consent and without wanting it to??? Plus address book will NOT import old address book contacts from Snow Lepoard 10.6 and keep them.  This Lion OXS 7 is .. becoming very frustrating ... it will NOT keep changes made in the Address Book and it has destroyed my contacts which I only have electronically since 10.4 in my address book. I am NOT happy with this OS7 it has a lot of issues and faults.  How can one stop automatic reversing of data when inputting???
    Please help! 
    Wished I NEVER upgraded to this Lion!!!
    Carmelo

    Relax. Your address book database is corrupted.
    If you are syncing your Contacts with MobileMe or something else, disable it for now.
    Backup your address book by going to File>Export>Address Book Archive.
    Quit Address Book.
    Open your Library by holding down the Option (alt) key while selecting the Go menu in Finder. Select Library. Navigate into your Application Support/AddressBook folder and delete the addressbook-v22.abcddb file.
    Open Address Book. It will recreate the database from the raw data.
    See how that works. If it is ok, then reenable syncing and see how that works.

    Assuming Windows...
    You can, assuming you select around the pixels you want to copy, and the selected region isn't too large.
    There are a variety of ways you can get the copy operation wrong, e.g., by not having the proper layer selected or similar.
    And there's a secret setting to enable Photoshop to export its clipboard no matter how large the selected pixel set is.  Note the setting I have bolded below.  Keep in mind that by making this setting you may be subjecting all the software on your computer that registers to receive clipboard data to datasets that are larger than it might expect.  In other words, there could be a downside.  That being said, I haven't had any problems on my Windows 8 system.

  • HT4910 Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Hi Drumsing,
    As long as you have your iCloud account set up and signed in on both devices, and the Notes checke in iCloud on both devices, there is no reason they should not sync.
    Try resetting both devices - Hold down the Hole and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold until the Silver Apple appears. Do that for both, then try Notes again.
    P.S., after you write a note, you need to close the App on the device you wrote the note on before you open the app on the other device to see it.....
    Hope this helps,
