    Hi,

    I have subscribed to a podcast on itunes. These have always transferred automatically to my ipod when I connect it. However, over the last few weeks any time I connect my ipod these podcasts are deleted from my ipod, and I am unable to put them back on. I can still play them in itunes, but can't put them back onto my ipod.

    I tried delete all my podcasts from my ipod, and dragging and dropping the files back into my ipod, but all the ones that were deleted (about two thirds of the total) still won't go back on.

    Can anyone offer a reason why this might be happening, or a way to fix it? It is not a memory issue, still have about 10 gigs free.

    Thanks.

    You probably have it set to only synch new episodes. If you want all the old episodes back on your ipod, simply mark them as new in iTunes.

    That would work. In the meantime,

    go into podcasts
    - select settings
    - select the relevant podcast from the pull down menu
    - beside 'When new episodes are available:' select 'Download All'
    - beside 'Episode to keep' select 'All episodes'
    - Press OK
    - Hit refresh
    - Wait for any new downloads to finish
    - Sync iPod again

    If they're not on there by then, you need to change the sync setting on your iPod (through iTunes) like TureDub has said to make sure it's selected to sync all podcasts when connected (or at least the relevant one).
