Podcasts showing up in Smart Playlist but not in library

[mashinhead]

I created a smart playlist and these podcasts that have been deleted from my library and that do not show up in the podcasts section are in the smart playlist and i can not find them in itunes or delete them.

/user/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Podcasts

Are they in path above? Do they play fine in Smart Playlist?

Delete them from the smart list too, then they should be gone forever

thats the problem i can't delete them because they are in a smart playlist, and i can't find them in the library because they don't appear in the search.

What happens if you select one of the podcasts and press CMD-R for "Reveal in Finder"?

Reviving an old thread.....

I've got the same problem as the OP. Podcasts show up in a smart playlist I created to find errors with my iTunes match. Podcasts only show in the smart playlist, not anywhere else in my library. Unable to delete them (because it's a smart playlist), and yet unable to locate them anywhere.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Eureka! You can delete a file from your library even when you're doing it THROUGH a playlist by pressing alt/option and delete on the Mac.

I'm sure glad THAT was published somewhere. Honestly. Apple can be so frustrating sometimes.
