   I am kind of torn on the whole iTunes thing. On the one hand, it is, at least in regards to the PC, very bloated. I also think the way that Apple expects people to interact with their devices, like iPods and iPhones, is much too restrictive and have issue with their stance on licensing and digital rights management, although the latter is getting better.

   With that said, I think that they have innovated the concept of the music store. It is possible to find most any song imaginable and I think $1 is probably a fair price.

   iTunes also provides a platform where artists can directly sell their songs, bypassing the record labels, although you do have to give Apple a cut. This is the major selling point for me, because I think the ability of a band to market and sell their music in this manner is a big step in the right direction.

   I don’t have an iPhone but I do have an iPod. To delete a podcast from my iPod using iTunes what I do is:

   1) Delete the podcast from the iTunes on my computer.
   2) After the deletion I plug in my iPod to sync and iTunes automatically syncs my iPod to have exactly what I have in my iTunes (which now does not have the podcast).

   Hope this helps!

   Try this. Go into Itunes, synch up and find the podcast – under the advanced tab you can convert it to an acc file – you should be able to delete it then… I think.

   Good luck

   Thank you! Thank you! I’ve had some phantom podcasts that I’ve been trying to remove from my iPhone for months now and was utterly unable to. I’m very grateful to you for pointing out this easy fix.

   I’ve been trying to figure out how to delete podcasts from my itouch for a while. Thanks for the article.

   THANKS! I have spent hours trying to figure out how to delete podcasts. I even called Apple tech and they didn’t know! Obviously this was built into the system so why can’t you find it anywhere in the manuals?

   Thanks

   This befuddled me for a while. Everyone keeps saying just delete it. Well, you can’t. On some computers you can just delete. On others, you cannot. Here’s what I finally did and it worked.

   Click and drag the file into your trash can on the desktop.

   Let me know if that works.

    Hi.
    Thanks for the post!!!! You saved my iphone memory.
    I agree with you.. ITunes is a pain in the ass.
    Iphone is only cool on hardware, but I hate it on the rest…. There are so many things you can’t do and so dificult to understand some basic functions.

    Thank you! This was just the solution I was looking for. P.S. I don’t hate iTunes but the undeletable podcasts were bugging me!

    Phew!! Thank you so much for this advise. Have read some other ways to do it but they all sounded way too difficult. This is so easy.
