Windows phone connector and podcasts

[Steve Leighton]

Hi all,

Need a bit of help! I managed to get the Windows Phone for Mac v3 to sync my music and playlists from iTunes eventually after a bit of searching this forum. However, it says it is syncing my podcasts and they appear to be taking space on the phone the problem is I can't find them anywhere!

They are not in Nokia Music and the podcast directory in the Music & Videos app shows as empty. I can't see them by scrolling through my music collection either.

Does anyone know where Windows Phone connector puts the wretched podcasts?!

Should add I'm in the UK so have no podcasts in the store otherwise I would have found them there instead!

Cheers, S.

I have the same problem. I'll see SOME of the Podcasts under Music->Podcasts but it seems arbitrary which ones. Where are the rest?

I've been struggling with the phone connector since day one. I think it's a pretty useless app and I personally HATE it. I've come across MusicBee (getmusicbee.com). It's a free music player/management program and it works beautifully. I can now sync everything to my Nokia 920, individual songs, playlists, and podcasts. I still use Zune for my WP7, but that's still a better alternative than what Microsoft is offering.

I'll continue to use MusicBee until Microsoft comes up with a viable music player/management program that does everything Zune currently does allows you to sync a WP7 AND WP8 in the same program. Sounds rather doubtful....
