Adding Podcasts to iPod nano

The settings for adding podcasts to iPod nano are unrelated to the settings for adding
songs. Podcast update settings don’t affect song update settings, and vice versa. You
can set iTunes to automatically sync all or selected podcasts, or you can add podcasts
to iPod nano manually.

To set iTunes to update the podcasts on iPod nano automatically:

1

In iTunes, select iPod nano in the source list and click the Podcasts tab.

2

In the Podcasts pane, select “Sync … episodes” and choose the number of episodes
you want in the pop-up menu.

3

Click “All podcasts” or “Selected podcasts.” If you click “Selected podcasts,” also select
the podcasts in the list that you want to sync.

4

Click Apply.

When you set iTunes to sync iPod nano podcasts automatically, iPod nano is updated
each time you connect it to your computer.

Note: If “Only sync checked items” is selected in the Summary pane, iTunes syncs only
items that are checked in your Podcasts and other libraries.

To manually manage podcasts:

1

In iTunes, select iPod nano in the source list and click the Summary tab.

2

Select “Manually manage music and videos” and click Apply.

3

Select the Podcasts library in the source list and drag the podcasts you want to
iPod nano.
