Q: iTunes 12.4.1.6 podcast bugs!

For the last few versions of the Windows iTunes, my ability search and subscribe to podcasts, and then to choose individual podcasts has been severely compromised.  Has anyone else run into the following problems:

1) Clicking "subscribe" in the Store does not indicate that the podcast is now actually subscribed (though, if I check on "my library" it shows as subscribed

2) Scrolling down in the Store sometimes results in weird lines showing up in the display.

3) When on my iPod, I can't click on the selection box to manually add additional unplayed podcast episodes.  If I click on "25 Death of a Conqueror", episode 26 gets a checkmark,  If I click on 26, the check mark doesn't go away (and there IS no check on 25).

 

There are more buggy things like this, but am I the only person that has this problem?

 

Thanks.

    Hey there DC from SD, 

     

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! 

     

    Podcasts are a great way to keep up with ranging content from all over the world. We want this to be a flawless experience for you and understand a few items need to be sorted. General subscription / playback issues may be resolved after a quick power off and on of each device. Have a quick glance over the different resources here and reach out if you have additional concerns.

    All of the above, greatly depends on the software version of iTunes on Windows and iOS on your iPod. 

     

    We hope that this information starts you on that path to a resolution. Take care and be well.
