Loading podcasts onto iPod
Podcasts are radio or TV shows you can download to your computer from the Internet. You can download and subscribe to free podcasts at the iTunes Store.
If you have an iPod shuffle, iTunes-enabled mobile phone, or third-party music player, you can only load podcasts onto it manually. For other iPod models, you can set up iTunes to automatically load podcasts onto your iPod when you connect it.
To load video podcasts onto your iPod, it must have video capability.
To load podcasts onto your iPod:
- Connect your iPod to your computer.
- When the iPod icon appears in iTunes, select it.
- Click the Podcasts tab and then do one of the following:
- To automatically update your iPod with all the podcasts in your Podcasts playlist, select Sync.
- To load podcasts onto your iPod manually, deselect Sync and drag podcasts or podcast episodes from your Podcasts playlist to the iPod icon in the iTunes window (below Devices).
If you connect and update your iPod, and then add podcasts to your iTunes library, choose File > Sync iPod to add the new podcasts to your iPod.
