Try the following:
1. Delete and re-install app
2. Close all in-active apps in the task bar
3. Reset iPad
This is what I did:
1a. Podcasts app deleted from the iPhone. Doesn't show on any of the home screens on the iPhone. The button next to the Podcasts app in iTunes says "Install". Synching the iPhone with iTunes generates the message "The Podcasts app is not installed on 'Maggie's iPhone 4', so you will not be able to play podcasts on your iPhone"
1b. Clicked the "Install" button for the Podcasts app in iTunes. It now displays "Will Install"
1c. Clicked "Apply" in iTunes to start iPhone sync. iTunes shows "Copying 1 of 1: Podcasts"
1d. Podcasts app icon is shown correctly on one of the iPhone home screens. Previously, the Podcast app icon was a generic placeholder icon.
1e. Resyched iPhone and launched Podcasts app. Everything now working properly.
2 & 3. Didn't have to perform these steps, which implies that earlier suggestions contributed to the fix.
Thanks for your help!
Close Podcast apps in the multi-task window
1.Double-click the Home button.
2. Swipe Podcast app's preview up to close it.
3. Test app again.
I am having a similar (same?) problem and the above steps did not seem to address it. I'll keep trying. Thanks.
