Why does play stop when I close the Podcasts app - IOS 6

Whenever I leave the Podcasts app to answer an email, text, open Safari, etc., the podcast stops playing.  This effectively stops me from using any other application on my phone, unless I want to also stop listening to the podcast.  It won't continue playing in the background like the Music app did.  Of course, this is an IOS 6 issue.
Ridiculous!!!
Am I missing something here?

I had the same problem the first night and my head almost exploded as playing podcasts is what my iphone is doing 95% of the time. I was also experiencing a lack of control not being able to jump back or ahead which was maddening. However, the next morning, after syncing the phone with my iTunes (on a MacBook Pro) all of this functionality was there, including the ability to have the podcasts continue when exiting the app and the ability to control them with an inline remote on my earbuds.
Hopefully, this problem has already resolved itself for you. Unfortunately, it is my understanding that there still is no option for playlists at this time.

  • Why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)

    why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)?

    Hello again @st3lla,
    I can understand the fear of messing up a computer when I first started seriously working on computers back in the early 90's I had to format and re-install my operating system twice a day for quite a while before I figured out a very important step (at least important for me), and that was after I made a change to my computer to restart it. This way if I messed something up I only had to undo one thing and not 50 because I went wild on it. lol
    Anyways, do not be afraid of your computer all you need to do is learn that step, how to keep your personal items backed up and then of course how to re-install your computer back to factory and you can always start over with a fresh build.
    On to your questions:
    Q - What are the steps to ensure that all HP updates are done.
    A - Simply review the HP Support document: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8) and it will guide you through the process.
    Q - What are the steps to ensure that all Windows updates are done?
    A - Simply review the Microsoft Support document: Windows Update: Frequently Asked Questions and again you will find answers to this question. (***Note: Do not worry if the document refers to Windows 8.1 it is only an upgraded version of Windows 8 and the steps are the same)
    I am also including a Windows Support document: Install the latest Windows 8.1 Update, which will guide you through how to install the Windows 8.1 update on your computer.
    And finally, to put your mind at ease I am providing you with two important HP Support documents: Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), and Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8), which will provide you with all the instructions you need to backup your personal files so you do not loose them if you ever do mess up the computer, as well as provide you with instructions on how to put your computer back to how it came from the factory.
    Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you once again for your post on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
    Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.

  • Does not sleep when I close the lid...

    Never encountered this before! I have 1 MacBook that works fine, but bought another today that will not sleep when I close the lid. It does sleep when I select it from the menu, but not when I shut it.
    Any ideas?

    Mine recently started doing the same thing. Now everytime I want to go out with my computer I have to pack up the charger, even if I only end up using it for 15 minutes, because the battery is wasted by 2.5 hours.

  • Why are you ignoring customer complaints about the Podcasts app?

    This app is horrible. All the iTunes reviews list the same problems. Either episodes won't download, they won't play, or they won't sync. I know it's a free app, but we all paid for our iPhones or iPads. I've seen no answers and no helpful updates. Why haven't you done anything to fix it? I'll probably be getting a new phone soon, and I'm seriously considering switching to Droid or Samsung. This just isn't the kind of service I used to see from Apple.

    What I don't get is... if they don't "fix" the Podcasts app, then they must be happy with it the way it is, and think that it works correctly.  But the number of posts to the contrary goes up every day.  So why don't they put out some instructions for people, so that everyone can stop being so frustrated with it?  If it "works" the way it is, then tell people how to control the syncing with iTunes and delete podcasts and avoid the Cloud and whatever else.
    But I'd much rather they just fix it.

  • Is there any way to keep streaming the audio portion of a video podcast when I leave the Podcast app?

    If I leave the Podcast app while playing an audio podcast, I can still hear the audio. However, if I leave a video podcast to do something else like answer emails, the audio portion doesn't keep playing. This means that if I have a video podcast going, I can't do anything else with my iPad while it's playing. I multitask all the time while playing my podcasts and then come back to the video if it sounds like there is something interesting to see. This one glitch unfortunately makes the Podcast app unusable for me. I'll keep using the Downcast app for a while longer because of this but if Apple fixes this problem, I'll be back since the rest of the app looks great.

    Thanks Kiwi. It doesn't make sense to me though, as that would seem to be only a simple change in the operating system, not a hardware 'necessity'.

  • Why Does Image Distort When I move the Bones?

    http://postimage.org/image/jjcef8ebt/
    Hi, I just watched a tutorial where they apply bnes to deform a "bitmap" image. Their image didn't distort like my image. Why is this happening.
    I imported an image then I "selected "break apart" and then I added bones to it. When I move the bones it makes the image distort, but in this tutorial here the image doesn't distort. What is wrong?

    The tutorial you watched is very simplistic. He doesn't use the bones in a realistic way and skips over the fact that his image isn't actually distorting the way he implies it will.
    When you break apart a bitmap on the Stage, you end up with a shape that has its fill set as the bitmap (which is still in the library). When you bend and distort this shape with bones, the effect on the bitmap fill is unpredictable. Note that in the tutorial you cited, the author does not show the bitmap actually distorting in any useful way.
    The better way to do this is to select the bitmap instance on stage and then choose Modify > Bitmap > Trace Bitmap. This converts the bitmap instance to a vector drawing. The problem here is that you end up with mulitple shapes of different colors if you have a multi-color image like your dinosour tail. You can add bones to the main green part of the tail, but the yellow parts will not be associated with those bones and so will not move with them. If you are animating the tail in the timeline, you can animate the main part of the tail via the bones and then animate the other parts to compliment that movement by moving those other parts to different layers and animating with normal motion tweens. 

  • Why doesn't my iPad turnoff when I close the cover with ios 7?

    With the new ios 7, my cover no longer turns off my iPad when I close it.  It's the only reason I bought the stupid thing.  Is there a way to turn teh feature back on?

    I was having this problem after using a Logitech solar bluetooth keyboard pad while travelling only with an iPad. The magnet on the Logitech is only marginally strong enough and you have to be careful to get the alignment of the closed cover correct to switch off, so it may have been flicking between switching off and not switching off. After a while it stopped switching off at all and when on my return, I reverted to the normal Apple cover, the switch off was not working on that either, even though it was turned on in General Settings. I did a "reset all" in General, followed by a reboot and that has cured the problem, both with the Apple and Logitech covers.

  • Why does iust stop when installing mt.lion it says paused

    will some one answer this quiston someone from apple cause been try ing to install for more than a week iknow iam not all that comupter savy but iam disabled had 8stroks 10 heart atts but not like thisneed help .

    Best bet is inquire at http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact.html?form=account
    If I remember correctly, the download isn't complete. You'll have to go back to the Mac Apple Store, log in, and click on the Purchases tab. Once there, you should be able to resume the download. Do note, when successful, the installer app will run. I strongly recommend quitting the installer app, saving a copy to safe place, and then relaunching the downloaded one, which resides in /Applications. If you run the installer w/o saving a copy, you'll be forced to download it again, wasting resouces (time, bandwidth, and electricity) if you have to reinstall or use the recovery system, since the ill-designed installer (just like Lion's) blows itself away during the installation process.

  • Internet sharing does not stop when I uncheck the box in the sharing preferences.

    I started wifi sharing through preferences > sharing > internet sharing, by unchecking that box it doesn't take it off of internet sharing, however I can click on it and it will go back to searching for wifi hotspots.  Whenever I close the lid on my MBP and open it again it goes back to internet sharing even though it is turned off.  I have not tested this with a reboot but the preferences shouldn't stick.  If I toggle my Wifi off and on it goes back to internet sharing.  This is the second issue that I've noticed where the plist files aren't being updated after a change has been made.  (The first being the plist file that controls inertial scrolling.) I'm running 10.7.1

    yes. otherwise it returns with the sharing on and you have to restart once more.

  • HT4108 Why does an iPad (1st gen) and the Photos app using VGA adapter

    Why does an iPad (1st gen) using iOS 5.1 and the Photos app not send a single photo to a projector while a slideshow is sent photo by photo?

    I am not 100% sure, but i believe the iPad only does mirroring when connecting with AppleTV. AV cables will output audio and video out the bottom of the iPad (30-pin connector) to a TV/monitor, but the iPad screen itself will only show video controls (play/pause, FF, RW, Done, Progression bar).  If your cables say otherwise I am interested to know what brand they are and where you got them. If you are not getting any video at all the cables are probably not Apple approved and dont have the special chip in the 30-pin connector that allows for video transition.
