IPhone :: Delete Podcasts On It Without Having Them Reappear On Every Sync?
Apr 20, 2012
I want to delete podcasts from my iphone after I am done listening to them, which works like a charm. The problem is that every time I sync, it download them again! For some reason the Iphone and ITunes refuese to talk to one another to ackowledge that I have deleted a particular podcast and Itunes dumps it right back onto my phone.
Is there a nice simple (Apple should be good at that...) way to delete them once and for all? I looked for a "When I delete songs I really mean delete" checkbox but there is none.
Why would they allow you to delete something if it will just come back and clog up your memory on the next sync?
Recently when I add a new contact the 9700 creates multiple entries. When I delete these multiple entries then it leaves approx 10 blank spaces. If I leave the multiple entries for the same person then the next person who I add will only show once.Why do they appear multiple times? How can I delete the multiple entries so they do not reappear when I create the next entry?
Since upgrading to ios 5.1.1 I can not remove video podcasts from my iphone 4s.
I tried unticxking sync podcasts and agreed to the warnng saying they will be deleted from the phone, after synching they are still there. I remove them from itunes altogether and sync, same result.
When I go into the videos app and delete them there they dissapear temporarily. But if I exit the videos app and load it back up the videos are miraculously back.
Everything was fine until I upgraded to 5.1.1 last month, I just didnt notice until today when space was getting low.
how to remove them from the phone without having to do a restore?
Ever since I got iTunes 10 I have been having problems with podcasts.
My iPhone 4 will not allow podcasts to be manually added. It will only allow podcasts to be synced by playlists. This is a pain because podcasts constantly get new episodes and I shouldn't have to create a specific playlist EVERYDAY. By the way the "manaully add songs and videos" button is CHECKED and has always been checked. The only time I'm able to manually add podcasts is when the iphone syncs the podcast playlist. And sometimes this doesn't work.
All of a sudden after about 4 years my podcasts suddenly stopped syncing. I've never seen anything like it. I have 3GB free on the phone, more than enough for an episode of This Week in Tech, and yet it (along with a few others I've tried) refuse to sync. I can see them listed when I click on my phone under devices. It shows the title of the podcast in black then the title underneath it is greyed out and has a small sync circle next to it, similar to what you see whtn the podact is downloading, except it isn't spinning. I've tried redownloading the podcasts, rebooting the phone, rebooting the Mac, unchecking sync podcasts then selecting sync again, but nothing works. I've never seen this before. And yes everyting is up to date version wise...
I want the Podcasts that I've subscribed to in iTunes to appear automatically on any device (iPhone, iPad) that I have signed in under the same Apple ID. I subscribe to about 28 podcasts and it is a real pain to have to manually add each of those to both my iPhone and my iPad — not to mention keeping all that in sync as I add or delete subscriptions over time.
Do you think Apple is working on a fix for this? I've got the latest everything, iOS 5.1.1, iPhone 4S, iPad3, iTunes 10.6.3, iCloud. No luck
I have an iPhone 5c that I have always synced with iTunes on a laptop that belonged to my workplace. But I have left that job now, and with it, I have left the laptop. I now want to sync that same iPhone 5c on my iMac at home. This iMac has an iTunes that has NO podcasts on it ...Â
But when I prepare to sync the phone in iTunes and I click the podcasts tab and check the "Sync Podcasts" checkbox, it asks if I want to delete all the podcasts on the iPhone. I definitely *don't* want to do this ... I want those podcasts on the iPhone to be part of my backup on the computer. Many of these podcasts are older and no longer available for download from their original sources.Â
Is there any way that I can achieve this? It's not like I paid for any of these podcasts -- it's all free content, so I'm not breaking any copyright issues here.
There isn't a specific forum for this in the iOS Apps category so I am putting it here.I just downloaded the new Apple Podcasts app to my iPhone 4S.[URL]I have figured out how to find and subscribe to the podcasts I normally listen to but I am not sure how to get the podcasts to download over wifi so I can listen to them later.Don't want to burn up my data plan streaming podcasts when I'm on the road.The description says that you can do this, "Stream episodes or download to listen while offline" but I am not sure if it is happening.There is no visual clue to let me know that the casts are downloading or not.Do I just need to be patient? Or am I doing something wrong.
Within the music player on a 5800XM, how can I control the ordering of podcasts when using the Podcasts->By Title search option with the music player...? What this currently does is orders these is the newest first order, where as if you a listening to a radio drama (like me, who listens to the Archers approx twice a week) you want these to be in the oldest first order!
I have just installed the Media Go s/w for my new Experia phone (as I want to use it to play podcasts to replace my aging Zune) Trouble is when I ran the set up of Media Go, it found all my music and podcasts but sees them ALL as music (and has put nothing into the Podcasts menu (LHS panel) and found a way to make them go to the right place?
Also, when I almost gave up and tried to just set them all up again by subscribing to them insode Media Go, the choice is REALLY limited, so is no use either.
I'm thinking about getting an iPhone or iPod touch and want to listen to podcasts. With my current MP3 player/software combination I have a problem dealing with podcasts. So I'm wondering if iTunes+iPod/iPhone can do what I want. This is what I'm looking for:
I want to be able to have a playlist containing all podcasts that I haven't listened to. When a new podcast comes out I want to be able to sync with iTunes and have the new podcast get appended to the playlist. Preferably I should not have to choose which podcasts to append. All new podcasts should just be automatically appended. I don't want to have to make a new playlist everytime I download a new podcast and I don't want to lose my place in the playlist. I just want to sync the podcast and have it show up in my podcast playlist. Once I've listened to a podcast I want it to be deleted and taken off of the playlist. Thus the playlist should just act like a queue where podcasts that have been listened to get deleted and new podcasts get appended. I know that iTunes/iPod has some functionality in dealing with podcasts, but can it do all of this? If not, do you know of any device/software combination that can perhaps non-iPod or software for the iPod touch, something like that? If there's an application which can do this without syncing to iTunes, that would be work too.
I synced my phone tonight and my contacts dissapeared and now when i text a number my number comes up in there phone as my email address, how do i stop this and how do i get my contacts back?
Respring makes them go away until I install or update another app. Tried disabling Iconoclasm and reinstalling libhide to no avail. Was not doing this yesterday, and the only thing I changed was an update in cydia, but I don't remember what they were.
I made a list of things I needed to get at the store in the notes app on my iPhone 4. I tried to delete a couple items from the note & after a few seconds the items reappeared. Can you not edit a note & save? I do not recall ever having the issue previous to the latest OS.
Need help editing contacts. They dublicate each time I sync with itunes, deleted ones from phone reappear. Can't find master list on itunes (?) Apple computer to edit. Not using address book - so where are they coming from? I do have icloud.
With my wife, we got 2 BB Curve 8520 and we're now trying to sync both of them with our Outlook 2003 SP3 on XP SP3. Both do the same thing:
1/ First sync goes well, the BB calendar gets filled up, 2/ Everything syncs well during a few days, 3/ One day, the sync tells us it will delete 3000+ elements on Outlook, of course I click Reject and cancel the sync, 4/ I restart OK by synching one-dir from Outlook tp BB, 5/ A few days after, it returns to step 3 and is behaving bad again.
I can't get any durable solution, the only thing I got is a workaround that lasts only a few days.
it deletes all my photos. I have since then began to import my photos to my Computer.However, after restoring again, i realized when I sync my photos to my iPhone they are in a seperate folder called Photo Library? Why? I don't like how I can't just sync the camera roll to the PC. (E.G When I delete a photo from my phone and then sync it up to the PC it would just delete the photo from the comp, and if I add a photo it would add the photo to my specific folder, therefore keeping a synchronicity) Is there absolutely anyway to fix this, i dislike having the seperate folders, thing is.. I can't even add the photo library to the camera roll. I understand the camera roll is for photos taken by the camera, however I add many wallpapers through apps, why can't I add my photos like that to the camera roll and delete the unnecessary folder?
how can I sync my iPhone 3g, without deleting my calendar? When I've synced in the past, I lost all my latest calendar entries, so I've delayed syncing my phone, because I don't want to lost my latest entries?
I recently upgraded from the D1 to the D4 and have my Hotmail account set up via Corporate Sync. Incoming messages sync correctly but messages I delete on the phone do not delete from the server. On the D1 the two-way sync worked correctly for emails deleted on the phone but I can't seem to get it to work on the D4.My settings for the corporate sync account are:Username: full @hotmail email addressPassword: passwordServer: m.hotmail.comUse secure connection: yesProxy: blankAnyone else having this problem? Is there a fix?
I've sync'd my music on my iphone before, but I have not sync'd any apps yet, and it's telling me it will delete all content on my iphone and replace apps that are on my computer/itunes, which has none. So my question is, will I actually lose all of my data/saves, and locations of apps if I start to sync now? If so, any way to avoid this?
