I am aware it seems unusual that there is someone on this planet who still uses iTunes for Podcasts and listens to them through the podcast app, but I am getting strange problems and need a solution
Rather frequently I am noticing that many of my podcasts in iTunes, keep giving me a indicator, I click on it and is says "iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes" when I have on my iPhone. I have a number of podcasts I listen to and this error comes up very often.
My library is on a 4TB LaCie d2 USB 3.0 & Thunderbolt Hard Drive, connected directly to my iMac, yet every time I try to manually click each one that has stopped updating, I can only do three at a time, before significant lag happens. And any time I want to download episodes, or keep it as updated as I can (cause I like to collect all the episodes I can) I always get lag and the spinning rainbow ball, it doesn't last long, but keeps happening
I don't have an explanation for it and it is frustrating. I have (as far as I know) checked the drive (Disk Drill, Drive DX) and it seems ok/healthy, it is plugged directly into the computer via thunderbolt, it is hardware/software/iTunes itself I have no idea
Any suggestions would be great
P.S the space issue is that I have way too many podcasts on my phone, about 16GB at this stage, that I hope to work through, but with the ability to now offload apps, if I did that with the podcast app, would they disappear, are podcasts considered documents and data?
