Is it just me or does the Mac Podcasts app no longer remember it's size and position after it is closed? This is definitely happening on all my Macs and only started after downloading 12.4. I will size and position the window and then as soon as you close and reopen the app, it will be reduced again to the small default window. All my other apps remember their window size and position.

Am I the only one? And what can be done to fix this? Or is it just a bug Apple will have to fix? Thanks.

don't k now if this is related or not... I have 3 monitors on a macStudio... when it goes to sleep it pulls the windows from the 2nd/3rd monitors into the primary monitor, so I have to rearrange them each time it wakes up.

Unfortunately, I can confirm this. I have 3 monitors on a Mac Studio too. it's like having Windows 95 again!

Can confirm this as well, since 12.4 every time I close the Podcasts app entirely or just the window it resets size and position. :mad:

I might have found a solution (working so far today).

Start Podcasts, move/resize and let it do its update/sync things. Bring up a Terminal and enter: ps -ef | grep -i pod

You will see an entry for Podcasts and PodcastContentService. Note the process numbers for them (second column) and issue the following from Terminal: kill -9 number1 number2

Restart Podcasts and it should go to where you had it pre-kill.


EDIT: Nope.
