Podcast Not Showing up in Podcast section

I recently subscribed to Man and Wife podcast directly from the iTunes store. It shows me the number of unwatched episodes in the Podcast sections but the episodes themselves do not show up. I only see the original subscription although I've donloaded several episodes. I can only find them by looking in the recently added. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Is the list expanded? Click on triangle next to podcast name to expand list.
Some more info.
Blue next to episode indicates not played yet, changes when play has started
Play count updates after episode plays through completely
Number to right of podcast name indicates number of unplayed episodes.

Podcasts not showing up as podcasts

My podcasts do not show up under Podcasts on my Ipod. They only show up for a brief time under Playlists/Recently Added. They also do not show up if I use the search function on my Ipod. How do I get podcasts to show up as podcasts? Also, I have already marked all as new.

I don't know if this will help, but I was experiencing the same problem. Searching the discussions didn't help other than to confirm that I was not alone. So, I started poking around.
Background
5th gen video iPod. on a Macbook Pro. iTunes 7.3.2. iPod 1.2.1
I had been manually copying podcasts to iPod. Noticed this weekend new podcasts weren't showing up under podcasts, some did show up under music, and videos weren't showing up at all.
My Solution:
selected iPod device. Selected Podcasts. Selected sync. (wasn't syncing before). choose a couple podcasts to sync. Clicked apply. podcasts synced. wiped out all my existing podcasts but the new ones showed up. Still no videos though. Chose Movies. chose sync. Got message something like "The iPod "<my iPod>" is synced with another iTunes Library. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library." I chose no (cancel), because I didn't want to wipe everything out without thinking about it.
Now Podcasts and videos show up on the iPod.
Hope this helps.

Wrote a review of a podcast, not showing up in podcast's reviews

I wrote a nice, long - but negative- review of a podcast. It was calm, it was within size limits, it was within the TOS (no objectionable language- except the word '*itch' which I used as a quote from the podcast itself- which I just now realized as I was typing this...), and had plenty of positives, with suggestions for improving the weak points. It doesn't show up in the reviews of the podcast, but it shows up in my account as 'published'. My only option is to remove it - no chance to edit it. I really want to avoid having to re-type it, and wondered if anyone here can tell me what I should do.
Is it because I quoted that word without putting the * for the b? If so, why haven't I received anything saying that my review was inappropriate or anything that gives me a clue as to what may have happened. Thanks for any help you can give me!
(background)The podcast is spun off from a blog, which I love, but the podcast is really weak compared to what it could be.

Don't worry about the Feedvalidator error.
The Store is using the feed at http://talkradiomeltdown.com/podcast.xml - the Feedburner feed doesn't come into it.
Not filling in the 'itunes:subtitle' tag is what's caused the problem. When subscribing, the 'Description' column is presumably populated by the 'description' tag in the absence of the proper one, but the Store is not doing this.
Oddly enough your latest episode does have the 'itunes:subtitle' tag but it's not showing in the Store - did you add it subsequent to posting the episode? - if that's the case the Store will pick it up when you post a new episode.

Podcasts not showing up in 'Podcast' menu on Ipod.

Some of my pod casts show up but most do not. This is the same for my video podcasts. I can find them under my 'Music' heading but I cannot see them in podcasts or Video's.
Is there a setting I am missing. I have the latest update for I-Tunes but this has been this way since I bought my Ipod 6 months ago.
Any help?

I think it's a bug.
I had a similar problem when trying to delete podcasts from my Ipod.
On the iPod, they wouldn't show up in Podcasts, but there were a bunch of old ones hanging around in Music > Genres > Podcasts.
I finally had to get rid of them by unchecking them all in iTunes library. Then I set my iPod options to only update checked episodes. It finally deleted them all since noen were checked.
So you might try something similar - tell iTunes to update checked episodes.

Podcasts not showing in ipod podcast library

Since getting my new PC and transferring my library across my podcasts no longer show within the Podcast library on my ipod, they do show correctly on iTunes, they are only shown in the music library which is hardly convenient.
I have updated my ipod software to the latest version to see if that corrected it but it hasnt, I have reset the ipod settings on the player itself and that hasnt made any difference.
My movies, music videos and TV shows all show as snormal just not the podcasts.
Anyone else come across this? Anyone else got any suggestions on how to fix this, or know how to resolve this issue?

Recheck the podcast settings the next time you connect to your PC. Sometimes the setting defaults back to not syncing any podcasts. This happened to me once. For no reason I couldn't get my podcasts loaded on my ipod. I checked my settings and I had to reset it. No problems since then.

ITunes Podcasts not showing iPhone 4 list correctly

I download The Mike OMeara Show podcast everyday to iTunes on my Win7 laptop everyday. I then sync the podcast with my iPhone 4. However, when I look at the iPhone Podcast in iTunes, it does not show all the podcasts that the iPhone actually has. Any ideas on correcting this? It is not a big problem, the iPhone shows the right available podcasts. However, it is annoying.

Podcasts not showing

All my vidio podcasts dont show, under the podcast folder in the vidio section.

Are they set to transfer?
Connect the iPod and go to edit-->preferences in iTunes. Hit the iPod tab, then the podcasts tab under that. Make sure automatically update all podcasts is selected. Now go to the videos tab and make sure automatically transfer all videos is set.
Click ok.
See if it works now.
Also, do they show up under music-->podcasts?

Time column duration not showing for my podcast

the time column duration is not showing for my podcast shows on the iTunes Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/income-press-podcast-blogging/id500448874
For some odd reason it just stopped showing the duration.
Any help or ideas would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Joey

Your feed is at http://feeds.feedburner.com/incomepresspodcast
You have no 'itunes:duration' tags in the feed, which are necesssary for the duration to show in the Store and when subscribing, though in that case the duration will show once the show has downloaded as the iTunes application will detect it from the file itself. In order to show the duration in the Store you need to add this tag, though I can't advise on how to go about it in Wordpress.

Getting music podcast to show up in podcast on iPod ??

How can I get music podcast to show in the podcast listing on my ipod.
They want to put themselves in the music area on the ipod.
In iTunes they show in the podcsat section..why do they not show in the podcast on the ipod?
thanks allot

Connect your iPod to your computer. Go to edit-->preferences. Hit the iPod tab, then the podcasts tab under that. Make sure transfer all podcasts automatically is checked. Click OK.
Also, know that podcast episodes will show up under Music-->Songs. The podcasts themselves should show up under Music-->Podcasts.

Drag and drop podcasts do not show up under "podcasts" heading

When I manually drag and drop a downloaded podcast into my Ipod, these do not show up in ITunes under the "podcasts" category. When I look at the Ipod display, it show the podcast is actually on the device, even though ITunes does not show it. I can not browse through the ITunes listings to find the missing podcasts since the only other category available in the left-hand menu is "music" and this does not show podcast as an option for genre. How can I display and delete podcasts after I have listened to them? Hows can I see what is actually on my Ipod using ITunes.

Only episodes downloaded with iTunes will go into podcast section even if genre is set to podcast. Doesn't matter if it is singles episode download or using subscription.
Episodes downloaded with browser will go into music section. Depending on tag info they can then be found using genre, artist, or album search.
Somebody, awhile ago, found the difference in files using a hex editor. They were successful in moving the direct download file to the podcast section.

Podcast not showing up in itunes search after 1 week

i submitted my podcast with one episode and it was accepted on 17 july. i am able to get to it in the itunes store by using the url as provided in the email.
iTunes Store Welcome
Dear Podcast Owner
Your podcast, located at [ http://feeds.feedburner.com/meterdown ], has been approved. You should expect to see it in iTunes within the next few hours. When it's available, you will be able to access it with the URL below.
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260194221
i have put an icon with that url in my blog (meterdown.wordpress.com) and that works fine. people are taken to the podcast in the itunes store and can subscribe.
however when i search the store, my podcast is not turning up either by podcast name (meter down) or by author/artist name (kabi) or by keyword (taxi, bombay, hindi).
I can ping using the podcast ID (id=nnn) and it returns the podcast feed url (http://feeds.feedburner.com/meterdown) and the podcast ID.
it doesn't list an episode however. is it supposed to?
my main question is "why am i not showing up in the search?"
is there something wrong in my xml? I host at switchpod and run it thru feedburner and I use the feedburner feed.
i have read and read the forums here, feedburner, podcast alley and also am emailing switchpod support. still can't figure it out.
thanks

ssukotto,
Thanks for the information. What you mention is boilerplate that is automatically sent when a new podcast is approved. I also quoted it like scripture before diving deeper into researching this issue.
The research into this problem suggests that there is a minimum number of podcasts in order to be included in the search index (or at least the search results) whether it's undocumented or unintentional.
Case in point, Meter Down posted his first complaint that his podcast hadn't shown up in the search even after a week (far outside the 24-48 hours you mention and that is documented)..that was a week ago. A total of at least two weeks that his podcast could not be found by searching by the exact title. His podcast showed up search within a day after adding his second episode (yesterday).
Jerry Pine posted July 17 that his podcast "Everything Algae" had been approved July 13 but couldn't be found by searching...even by name. July 28th, he added a second episode as a test...and his podcast became searchable.
There are several others who went for days or weeks without being listed in search results by even searching for their exact podcast title...common trait between all of them was that they only had one episode. They added a second episode and within the day they show up in search results.
There are others that had newly submitted podcasts whose podcasts showed up within the 24-48 hours timeframe...but they had at least two episodes.
I'm just providing the facts...could be coincidence that they just happened to be searchable just after posting a second episode.
I'd invite you to read through and share with the iTunes podcast developers the several thread from various people who have reported problems with having a searchable podcasts and draw your own conclusions.

Walkman app not showing my downloaded podcast mp3 and m4a files

Hi all,
Hope someone can help me with an Issue on my Z3 Compact running Lollipop 5.0.2 firmware.
I have a Music folder on my SDCard which contains all my music files in subfolders and all these files appear in the Walkman app just fine.
I also have two folders called 'Podcasts' - one on the internal storage and one on the SDCard which contain mp3 and m4a files which I have downloaded using 3rd party apps.
I would like to listen to these podcast files using the Walkman app - but they will not appear in Walkman - even if I try the Folders options.but it still will not show either of the Podcast folders.
The weird thing is it lists voices and sounds / voices rom two different SatNav folders which are stored on the SDCard - but not the podcast folders!!
It even lists a folder of foreign language audio mp3 files - but not the podcast files.
The podcast files appear fine in PowerAmp whic even shows the tags and descriptions etc....So, why not Walkman?
I even tried unmounting and re-mounting the SDCard to see if it would rescan - but still nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Solved!

Extended Podcasts not showing all images

I just noticed that the extended podcasts that I have, which include a number of images, only show the first image during the playing of the podcast. On the iPhone or iPod Touch, the same podcasts will sequence through the added images as necessary.
Has anyone else seen this? Is there a preference that needs to be changed? Some other fix?
Thanks,
Dave

I'm seeing the same thing with enhanced podcasts on my iPad. Initially I thought it might just be the enhanced podcasts I created some time ago, but I've since downloaded an enhanced podcast from early last week. Seeing the same problem in a more recent enhanced podcast.
Chapters are working fine, but the images are not changing. Both enhanced podcasts work fine on the most recent iTunes.
On perhaps a related note I am seeing other image issues in the iPod app on iPad (album art not showing up correctly, random album images showing up).

S.O.S. Audio files not showing up in Podcast

OK, here's the deal. After I submit new audio files for inclusion in my podcast at iTunes, the new files show up in the xml file, but not in the Podcast. I use a third party application (Podcast Maker). Does Apple provide a native way of adding audio files to podcasts? I need to get this fixed fast. Thanks!

Sync'd files not showing up in Podcasts

Having two issues with podcasts. I am using OSX 10.10 beta and iPhone 6+ 8.0.2
I have many mp3 files that i import into iTunes and then change media type to podcast so that i can use the Podcast app on iPhone to play them with the skip ahead / skip back buttons.
First problem is that it sometimes takes multiple syncs before the files are transferred over to iPhone even though they are marked as new and unplayed.
Also, sometimes the file will be synced across to the iPhone and will NOT be shown in the pod cats app although they are there when i do spotlight search on the phone and are listed under podcasts. I have checked all the settings on the podcast app to show all episodes, etc but still having this issue.
I tried changing type to audiobook and again same issue arises in that takes many tries before the files are actually synced over and then not "seen" by the music app as audiobook files although they are clearly on the phone.
Any ideas?

When you say you "have podcasts", how did the files get on to your computer?
I have subscribed to Podcasts in iTunes and I can confirm that (like RobHoward7) I also have some of those Podcasts showing up in the *Music library*, but mine also appear in the *Podcasts library* . I was under the impression that all the tags in a Podcast were added by the Podcast's creator, not iTunes. This is because Podcasts are not specific to iTunes and not controlled by iTunes, it simply lists them and +goes off to download them+ if asked for by the user. If so, that seems to suggest that it's not iTunes at fault.
David Bales wrote:
As a workaround, you may want to just create custom playlists...
As an enthusiast of Podcasts, I can say that for various reasons workarounds are definitely not the answer.
My older iPod, (30Gb video) has just returned from "battery replacement surgery" (well actually, the whole thing has been replaced, not repaired) and now some Podcasts are showing up in the music library whereas they did not do so before the repair. Perhaps this is a software problem, because I noticed that my "replacement" iPod has a different model number to the one I gave them.
