Why can't I sync a playlist with only podcasts in it (to my IPHON4)?

Made a playlist with specific podcasts in it. (my weekly show series I like to listen to)
But, it will not sync the podcast shows. It seems like I can only sync the 10 or 5 or xx latest shows. Seems kind of dumb that I can't create a list to be able to listen to several podcasts in a user defined order....
Grrrrr Steve....

Are any of the podcasts video podcasts? If I recall, that will cause a problem.

  • Why can't I sync my playlists from my Ipod Classic program over to my new Ipod touch?

    I'm not able to sync the playlists from my older Ipod Classic program over to my new Ipod Touch. WHen I connect to the program and drag the playlist up to the Ipid Icon they simply disappear and do not sync with the Ipod Touch.

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

    Last, backup the iPod to iTunes and restore from backup

  • Why can't I sync my ipod with iTunes 7.0.2?

    I'm using itunes 7.0.2 and am having problems syncing my ipod. I have recently formatted my computer and reinstalled everything, including itunes. My whole library was lost. When I reinstalled itunes the library was empty and so it erased all the songs off my ipod when i connected and synced it. I later filled the library in the newly installed itunes and now when i want to sync the ipod it says "Songs on the ipod "XY" cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist". I also can't update manually,so i'm basically left with a useless ipod.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you for your effort but when i create a new smart playlist and choose it as the playlist to sync to, i get the message "You changed your ipod settings. Would you like to apply them?" When i click APPLY, i get a new message, saying "The ipod "XY" cannot be updated. An unknown error occured (-50)." Also, my nano goes to charge mode (no "don not disconnect" sign) as soon as i get the old message "The ipod cannot be updated because the playlist no longer exist"...

  • Why can't I sync my phone with my computer after both the ios7 and Itunes 11.1 updates?

    I just recently purchased the new iPhone 5s and have been very happy with it.  At the same time I updated my itunes to the newest version 11.1.0.126.
    Since the initial syncing, I have been unable to complete the syncing process.  It progresses all the way through stalls out on step 5 "Downloading Safe Safari Browising Data".  Is there anything i can do to fix this issue?

    Which is precisely why I am frustrated with how proprietary Apple is.  No matter how much people try to spout out about the superiority of Apple products, my iPhone should be able to grab music from my laptop and my PC at home, both being authorized already.  I've already tried home sharing.  I didn't buy the iPhone outright, it was provided to me through work.  For all the Apple and Mac only fans, I feel this is Apple's way of trying to make me purchase music I have already bought on CD through iTunes.  Whatever happened to ease of use?  Customer friendly applications?  Anyone else dislike how hard it is to add artwork to an album in iTunes after you load a CD and it doesn't recognize it?  Track by track?  How about offering one simple, convenient copy and paste to album like in Windows?  Oh, yeah, so you give up and buy it again in iTunes.  I do like the interface on the iPhone or iPod once things are working properly, however the hoops you jump through are ridiculous.  I want to load music off of my laptop, after having most of my library on another PC, and it won't work without deleting the library off of the phone.  What is the point of authorizing up to 5 computers if you can't use your music from those different machines?  There, I'm getting off of my soap box now.

  • Why can't I sync my music with my iPad mini? I am using the latest version of all software available

    I don't understand why I cannot sync any of my songs with my ipad mini through itunes. Please help

    Hello cwill2
    Change one of the options to sync, like check to see if you are Manually managing your music and videos. If you are you can drag and drop the music you want to your iPad mini. If you are not, then check the things that you want synced in the music tab when looking at your iPad mini in iTunes. Either way, change it and sync, then revert the changes and you should be able to get your music on there.

  • Why can't I sync my phone with more than one computer to get my music from both computers onto my I phone?

    So I sync my phone on one of my computers and I get the music I want from that computer....then I plug my phone into another computer and I try to get more of my music files from that computer. The problem is: I tunes wants to delete all the previous files that I synced up with my other computer. SOOOO I can not get separate music files off different computers. Why not? These are all my music files....Will I have to find a way to consolidate all of my music onto one computer? Or is there some way I can get all of my files onto my I-phone?

  • Why can't I click on playlists with the mouse.

    I had asked iTunes to check for song titles. It said that it couldn't find the titles. After freezing and forcing me to restart the program. When iTunes restarted it wouldn't allow me to click on playlists. The only way I could change playlists was by using my arrows. It's still makinig me do that. Why is it doing this?

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

  • Why can't I sync my contacts with my facebook account

    When I talk to someone on the phone I can barely hear their voice.  When I put them on speaker I can hear them fine.  I was just wondering how to get their voice louder.  This is my first iphone so if you could be patient with me.  My contacts won't also sync up with my facebook friends that are also my contacts.  I hit the upgrade contacts in my settings and it still doesn't work

    I'm having the same issues with Facebook contacts.  I only get like 20 of my 200+ friends to show up in my contact list when I select the group "Facebook".  I have a iPhone 5 with iOS7

  • Why can't I sync my AppleTV with my iTunes?

    I can't connect my 1st gen AppleTv with my iTunes. In the software they devices menu is all greyed out. Why is that?

    No reason to suggest steps that have already been tried.

  • Why can't I sync my itunes with my apple tv anymore

    I have a first generation Apple TV with a hard drive.  I have all my music, photos and movies on it.  I am trying to update my music and photo and I can't sync with my Apple TV anymore.  Has apple changed the system so that you can now only stream?

    I've had this same problem intermittently.  For me, it seems that between my Mac & 1st Gen Apple TV, they decide whether they are synching or streaming.  Since later versions, updating the software seems to overwrite the functionality of this earliest generation. My Apple TV now only has content on it that is bought or rented on it and I haven't bothered. The streaming option is not my preferred choice when my wi-Fi hub can be troublesome.  Highly frustrating when we've paid out for a device that has its own storage but we can no longer access/utilise it!

  • Why can't I sync my iphone with itunes on 2 pc's?

    When I first purchased my iphone I synced it with itunes on the family pc.
    Now that I also have a laptop, which is my main source for all things computerised, I am unable to do anything other than software updates and add music.
    None of the apps that show in my itunes will transfer to my iphone, is there a way around this or am I doing something wrong?

    Iphone will sync/manage itunes content with one and only one computer at a time.  If you sync/manage with another it will erase the current content.
    This is the design of the iphone.

  • Why can't I burn a playlist in iTunes ver 11.0.4?

    Why can't I burn a playlist with iTunes ver 11.0.4? I've done almost everything that I know except try the old ver 9.x.x, which nobody can find! Apple is no longer as good as when their mater was alive!!

    Can you explain why it did not help?
    Can you select a playlist?
    Can you right click on a playlist name?
    Does a menu pop up when you right click on a playlist?
    Do you see Burn playlist to disc when you right click on a playlist?
    Are you told to put a disc into the disc drive?

  • Why can't I sync my I-Mac calendar to my new I-Pad?  No problem with my I-Touch or I-Pod.

    Why can't I sync my I-Mac calendar to my new I-Pad?  No problem syncing to my I-Touch and I-Pod.

    Do you have the settings in iTunes correct to sync the Calendar?
    Perhaps you could try using iCloud to coordinate your calendars rather than syncing with iTunes.
