I also turned them into Music Video’s and that worked for what I needed them to do.

Thanks – this post is still helpful three years later! I feel like every time I get a software update from Apple I lose functionality of something that I really like.

All worked fine for my podcast playlists until a month ago, with the upgrade. I have an old ipod nano. I’m very frustrated since then. Dangerous driving indeed.

Hi,

I have Itunes 8 and none of these suggestions work for me. I’ve tried them all. I’m so frustrated, because, before I updated to Itunes 8, my podcasts played continuously. I’m beginning to think that they don’t know what they’re doing.

Almost 3 years later and the bug is still not fixed. My 4th Gen worked fine, my new 6th gen, 120 GB wouldn’t play continuously. You saved me! Thank you, so much.

For whatever reason, these settings won’t save on my iPod. I’m doing everything EXACTLY as you stated and it just won’t work… um, why?

enquery: I’m not sure — I don’t listen to podcasts as often as I used to — but I think mine is also playing them in order these days. I’ve given up trying to make it work the way I want it to. Nowadays, I just use one of the above scripts to set the “Skip when shuffling” option off before updating and let the podcasts do whatever they like in a playlist.

I have the classic Ipod, I have the shuffle setting off, I have the play order in my Podcast library set to the right sort order…nada. Still my Ipod is playing the podcasts in reverse order. Sigh.

I’ve had my Ipod classic for years and never could figure this out. I wrote Apple about it and got no response. Thank you for your explanation.
