Rss feed won't validate when I use the itunes:order element?

Hi
I'm trying to use the <itunes:order> element -
http://deimos.apple.com/rsrc/doc/iTunesUAdministrationGuide/AddingContent/chapte r12_section3.html
When I run my feed through the W3C rss validator it won't validate. It says - Undefined item element: itunes:order
I also get a recommendation which says - Use of unknown namespace: http://www.itunesu.com/feed
As far as I can tell I'm doing everything correctly. The iTunes and iTunesU namespaces are declared correctly in the root rss element and the itunes:order are where they should be within the <item></item> element.
What am I doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.
Here's my rss feed -

I have been in touch with someone at Apple and I was advised that I shouldn't worry about this.
It would seem that the feed validator doesn't recognise the iTunes U namespace and some of the iTunes and iTunes U specific feed elements. The use of an unknown namespace gives an adviosry note and <itunes:order> and <itunesu:category> elements will not validate at all. I suspect there may be other elements that I haven't used in our feeds.

    Firefox 34.0.5: Live bookmarks (RSS feeds) won't stay open! If I close Firefox and reopen it, all my live bookmark folders are closed and I have to manually reopen them (such as BBC World News, etc.). Please restore the old functionality: If I have it open when I quit, let it be open when I come back! If I had it closed, then keep it closed. Thanks!

    Thanks for your reply and for taking an interest. I've attached the screenshot in PNG format--hope that's okay. I use bookmarks only in the Sidebar, never in the toolbar (I just have way too many!)
    The BBC News live bookmark that is shown opened in that screenshot always comes back closed after I close Firefox and reopen it. (This is true for ALL other live bookmarks as well. Formerly, in earlier versions of Firefox, the open ones always remained open, and the closed ones closed, which is the correct behavior, imho.)

  • Entry in RSS Feed won't delete

    I have an entry that has been deleted from my blog page in iWeb, but the summary continues to display on the RSS Feed. I've accessed the feed from various computers and still see the same results. Of course, because the entry on the blog is deleted, when a user clicks on Read More from the RSS feed they receive a page not found error.
    Does anyone know how or why the entry I deleted from my blog continues to show on the RSS feed?

    I assume you have deleted the page or entry, and saved the changes in iWeb, but have you also republished?
    That should rewrite the rrs feed in your iWeb RSS folder.
    If not, you may have to go to the rrs file, and modify it manually.

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

  • My flat screen won't connect to the internet, even when I use the cord from my working iMac.

    I have an old dome base flat screen running Tiger and a newer intel iMac running Snow Leopard. My newer model connects to the internet just fine and my old one did too, until recently. Both work off the same Comcast modem and one will connect and the old one won't, even when I take the cord from the new one and plug it into the old. I didn't make any changes to it so I don't know what the problem is. Any suggestions?

    I think what happened is I had Hide My *** Proxy running and for some reason it won't let me get on line with it running, although it used to so I don't know what the deal with that is. On my other computer I can get on line with it running. Anyway, after I quit HMA I could get on line. Thanks for your reply. By the way, my other computer is not connected to a hub, but to the Comcast modem/wireless device that my other computer is connected to.

    I just upgraded to OSX Mavericks and when i use the gestures on my magic track pad it responds oddly.  Sometimes it won't recognize when my simple gesture of scrolling through a document.

    Gestures is not working like it did before. The side to side, forward back swipe, is very picky. Sometimes it takes four or five tries before it works. And yes I know how to do it. I have had a magic trackpad for about one year. And was greatly pleased by how it worked, BEFORE Mavericks. It has has indeed changed.

  • Why is there a thin vertical line on the copy when I use the feeder?

    There is a thin vertical line on copies when I use the feeder but not when I copy from the glass. The copier is new. Any ideas?

    Hi Ccorning, When a vertical line (top to bottom) is produced only when using the feeder (ADF) of your laser product, the issue would actually be due to a small mark or debris on the scanning glass area that sits directly under the left panel cover of the ADF.  This occurs because as the paper feeds through the ADF and across the scanning area, every inch of the paper passes over the small mark which gets picked up by the scanner.  This then produces what looks like a line.  However, thorough cleaning can resolve the issue. You can clean the platen glass and the underside of the ADF by following the procedure below. 1.  Turn OFF the Main Power Switch and disconnect the power cord. 2.  Open the ADF. 3.  Clean the ADF scanning area on the left side of the platen glass and the same area on the lid (the area that would touch the scanning area when the lid is down) with a cloth dampened with water.  You will want to carefully and fully clean the glass in the ADF scanning area.  Look for scratches, tiny spots and marks of any sort.  If marks are noticed, you may have to clean the platen glass up to three times or more depending on what created the mark (i.e.. correction fluid, pen ink).  You can use a soft lint free cloth either dry, with glass cleaner or water to clean the glass and may have to scrub until it squeaks to remove certain types of marks.  NOTE: Please spray the cloth with the cleaning solution and not the glass.  Another way to ensure the mark is removed is to use a credit card by placing in on a angle and sliding it across the glass in one direction.  The plastic of the card will not scratch the glass.  You can then lift the credit card when reaching the end of the glass and return to the other side to slide it across again.  Then wipe the area with a soft, dry cloth. 4.  Close the ADF. 5.  Reconnect the power cord and turn ON the Main Power Switch. Caution:  Be careful not to get your fingers caught. After cleaning the glass, run 4-5 blank/clean pages through to test it.  If the thin black line still appears, please try cleaning the scanning area again as a mark on the glass is the only cause for this.  If the issue persists, there may be a scratch in the glass which would require service. If further assistance is needed, please feel free to Contact Us.

  • When I bootup the icon for Elements shows up in orange.  It changes to green only when I've gone to Finder and clicked on Elelments under the Devices list.  This is a recent development.  The icon used to be green upon bootup.  Does anyone know why ?

    When I bootup the icon for Elements shows up in orange.  It changes to green only when I've gone to Finder and clicked on Elelments under the Devices list.  This is a recent development.  The icon used to be green upon bootup.  Does anyone know why ?

    I'm sorry to hear that.
    I'm not affiliated w/ the developer, just a happy user that gave up fighting the apple podcast app a while ago.  I used to have a bunch of smart playlists in itunes for my podcasts, and come home every day and pathologically synced my phone as soon as I walked in the door, and again before I walked out the door in the morning.
    Since my wife was doing this too, we were fighting over who's turn it was to sync their phone.
    Since I've switched to Downcast, I no longer worry about syncing my phone to itunes at all.  I can go weeks between syncs.
    Setup a "playlist" in downcast (ex., "Commute") and add podcasts to that playlist.  Add another playlist ("walk" or "workout") and add different podcasts to that one. 
    Set podcast priorities on a per-feed basis (ex., high priority for some daily news feeds, medium priority for some favorite podcasts, lower priority for other stuff).  Downcast will play the things in the priority you specify, and within that priority, it will play in date order (oldest to newest).
    Allegedly, it will also sync your play status to other devices, although that is not a feature I currently use and can't vouch for.  It uses apple's iCloud APIs, so to some extent may be limited by what Apple's APIs can do.

  • Script to open RSS feed url's and post those in the background to a webpage

    Dear everyone,
    Im trying to work on a script that should do:
    - Read My Apple mail RSS feeds every 120 seconds
    - extract a NUMBER from the links from those RSS feeds
    - then post them to a website url site.com/rss.php?id=<extracted id>
    - It should run totally in the background of my apple
    - The links should be posted in the background also without opening any browser or safari
    Is this possible?
    I have my apple now 4 months and this is my first applescript project, so its a bit too much for me, ive spend several hours investigating on how to do this can someone help me out a bit please?
    on idle
    if application "Mail" is running then
    -- read RSS feeds from apple mail
    -- Extract link ID www.site.com/?id=12345
    -- Post Id 12345 to http://site.com/rss.php?id=<the id>
    end if
    return 120
    end idle

    Read My Apple mail RSS feeds every 120 seconds
    Start by using a different RSS application.
    Mail.app doesn't provide any access to RSS feeds via AppleScript, so there is no chance of doing this with Mail.app (or, at least, no easy way to do so).
    Try something like NetNewsWire instead.
    Once you have a viable app, the first part is pretty straightfoward:
    on idle
     if application "NetNewsWire" is running then
      --extract a NUMBER from the links from those RSS feeds
      tell application "NetNewsWire" to set numLinks to total unread count
     end if
     return 120
    end if=idle
    From here, though, I don't know what you're trying to do. You say:
    then post them to a website url site.com/rss.php?id=<extracted id>
    Do you mean you want to post the number of RSS messages (since that's what you asked for earlier), or do you mean you want to re-post the RSS articles? Or do you mean you want to download the links and re-post the entire linked article?
    That's three options (and there are probably more), each of which require a different approach.

  • Won't sleep when I close the lid - HELP!

    A while ago, my iBook G4 1GHz was knocked off of a table. The display was smashed and the whole display assembly was destroyed. I bought a new (used) display assembly and installed it. Worked fine, but when I closed the lid, the iBook woudn't sleep. I checked the placement of the magnet in the top case and I reset the PMU. Still no sleep. So I contacted the company that sold me the display and got a different one. Still won't sleep when I close the lid. I checked all of the energy settings, reset the PMU and even tried to force sleep with a magnet from another broken iBook. Still no sleep when I close the lid. It will sleep when I choose sleep from the Apple menu (OS Tiger) and when it sits for a while with the lid open, but not when I close the lid. Any thoughts?

    My original problem has not been solved. The iBook still won't go to sleep when I close the lid. I have checked out any possible software causes, and have ruled them out. I have checked to make sure no keys were being pressed when I closed the lid. I took a magnet from another iBook top case and ran it down the side of the display to try to force sleep. No effect. I don't have any Firewire or USB devices attached, to that's not it. Apple, this board, PBFixit.com, and my local Apple-affiliated repair center have no idea why I am having this problem. Two display assemblies have experienced this problem. The original display had been destroyed in a drop. Could some internal damage, like maybe to the logic board, result in such a problem? It's odd that I am the only person out there who has had this problem. Weird, to be sure.

  • My DVD drive won't open when I click the button

    Hi there
    I'm hoping someone can help me.
    My DVD drive won't open when I click the button.
    I've tried clicking on eject on the DVD Drive icon in My Computers and it comes up with an error message.
    I think I deleted cookies the other day. Could that have anything to do with the problem?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I really don't want to send my laptop away to a technician.

    Hi
    Try to open the CD/DVD drive manually.
    Near the eject button you will find a small hole.
    You could use a small object like staple and could push it carefully into this hole.
    Usually this should helps to open the drive manually.
