Does anyone know how to home share podcasts?
It worked until the IOS6 swtich, now nothing. The Podcast App, doesn't have an option to home share, and forces one to load podcasts directly onto the iPhone.
I've deleted the app, and can now sync between iTunes, and the Music App, which is a small step forward as the "played" count is now able to sync, but I don't want all that information clogging up my phone!
Apple HELP ME!
iPhone 4S, iOS 6, iMac
I had the same problem. I use a Mac Mini to download video podcasts for later viewing on my iPad and/or AppleTVs. I noticed that, inside the iPad Video app, Podcasts was no longer an option when I would browse to my Mac Mini iTunes library.
Here's how I fixed it:
If you actually use Apple's Podcasts app, I supposed you're out of luck. I listen to a ton of audio podcasts, but I use Downcast to manage those directly on my iPad. So deleting the Apple Podcasts app was no big deal for me.

Hey there,
Yes, now podcasts are available again under the Music App (hooray!), but similar to the "Artists", the "Podcasts" menu is basically emty except for one of my 50+ audio podcasts.
Where did all my titles go? I'm going to try restarting the phone and the iMac to see if that might help?
After viewing another thread here on these forums I went through and disconnected the home sharing both on my iMac as well as in the settings for the Music App on my iPhone, and then restarted everything, and then reconnected the Home Sharing that that seems do the trick!
I'm able to see all my "Artists" and all my "Podcasts" on my iPhone again! Hooray!
A solution that I found is to change the Media Kind of the file. right click on the podcast you want to watch in another device. Choose Get Info and select the 5th tab Options and in Media Kind change from Podcast to Music. This will allow you to listen to your podcasts through the music app. If your podcasts is a video repeat the same pocess, but changing the Media KInd from Podcasts to Movie.
