I cannot delete iTunes U podcasts fully from my iPhone. Although I can delete the content from iTunes U podcasts, the "headers" or information remains. For instance, I now have titles for podcasts for Marketplace Tech Report going back to Oct 17 2013. I must scroll down though months of them to get to "Show Only Downloaded Items" to filter the list.
When I use the Edit function, only recent downloaded podcasts remain, so I cannot do anything with the other items.
Honestly, this would not be a problem if Apple had not seen fit to move Markeplace Tech Report to iTunes U instead of Podcasts, but this is what I have to work with.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
