I used to update podcasts manually, but i got tired of every day adding on new ones. So I set to auto-sync select podcasts that i use. It was fine, until I unchecked the auto sync podcasts box. Then itunes deleted the podcasts off my iPod, but it didn't free up any space. I have 18 gigs of podcasts and they dissapeared from the podcast section, but when you search for them via iPod search engine, it finds the audio podcasts. I can't re-sync the podcasts because iTunes says there's not enough room. And when I try to do individual podcasts, iTunes recognizes that i already have them on my iPod and doesn't add them. Help please!!!!
