3Click “All podcasts” or “Selected podcasts.” If you click “Selected podcasts,” also select the podcasts in the list that you want to sync.

4Click Apply.

When you set iTunes to sync iPod classic podcasts automatically, iPod classic is updated each time you connect it to your computer.

Note: If “Only sync checked items” is selected in the Summary pane, iTunes syncs only items that are checked in your Podcasts and other libraries.

To manually manage podcasts:

1In iTunes, select iPod classic in the source list and click the Summary tab.

2Select “Manually manage music and videos” and click Apply.
