Paul, Aleeha and all,
Apple redid how podcasts are dealt with, but I really, really, really
recommend that you check out Downcast for iOS. Whilst I was using it on my
old iPhone Five, I had more than three hundred podcasts sinked with iCloud.
Then I used Downcast for OSX, and it kept my settings etcetera. I do admit
that it was sort of nice that podcasts were sinked with the music app on the
older iOS devices, but I'm telling you that Downcast is a better solution,
even though the OSX iteration is a wee bit deer!
Merry Xmas,
Ben

Subject: [Mac-access]: Confused about podcasts on iPhone 5S
Hello,
I have an iPhone 5S running IOS 8.1.2 and an iMac running MAC OS 10.10.1.
I normally access podcasts using iTunes on my iMac and then sync them to
my iPod Nano G7 so that I can listen to them on the move.
However there is now a problem with the iPod Nano and so I instead want to
access podcasts on my iPhone 5S. When I had an iPhone 3GS running IOS 6
podcasts appeared in the Music App on the iPhone and were synced with
iTunes just like they are on the iPod Nano. that worked fine.
Now on the iPhone 5S I cannot see podcasts in the Music App at all. I see
that there is a Podcast App on the iPhone and if I open that I see the
same list of podcasts as in iTunes on my iMac. However my iPhone contains
a large number of podcasts which I have already listened to on the iPod.
I would really like the iPhone 5S to behave like the iPhone 3GS and sync
podcasts with iTunes in the normal way so that podcasts appear in the
Music App on the iPhone 5S. How can I accomplish this?
If the above is not possible is there any way to mark a large number of
podcasts or even all podcasts in the iPhone podcasts App as played to
reduce confusion?
Many thanks for any help….
