If you're trying to permanently save a Podcast episode to your iTunes library, iTunes will always put it back into Podcasts, no matter what you do. The trick is to remove the Podcast flag, which is something iTunes does not let you do. But here's how:
- Open a Terminal window (/Applications » Utilities » Terminal.app).
- If you haven't done so yet, download AtomicParsley, expand the archive, and move the executable somewhere on your path, like /usr/local/bin: sudo cp ~/Desktop/AtomicParsley-MacOSX-0.9.0/AtomicParsley /usr/local/bin
- Control-click on the podcast episode in iTunes you'd like to keep in the library and choose Show in Finder from the pop-up menu.
- Back in Terminal, type AtomicParsley /path/to/podcast --podcastFlag false. The easiest way to get the /path/to/podcast bit is to drag the file from the Finder into the Terminal window after typing "AtomicParsley ".
--podcastURL '' --podcastGUID ''
