itunesOne of the biggest headaches with harddrive crashes is getting all the things to the way they were.There are programs for other things but how do you back up your podcast feeds in itunes. Here is what i do. Go to the podcast section in itunes and from there select all and just drag them and put them in a folder. You have to close all your podcast as shown in the picture, don’t expand them when selecting. Then windows makes a txt file for each podcast. Now just save that folder some place safe like the gmail drive. I do it once a month. Then when ever some things corrupts or harddisk crashes. I just go and get that folder and drag and drop the txt file in the folder on to the podcast section. That way i Get all the podcasts back. I will do my best podcast list soon so watch out for that.
