Add a Podcast - Missing?

Hi - i have been getting used to working with podcasts.
I have submitted 2 podcasts as tests - with the intention of removing them after i knew it all worked.
Everything worked fine but i wanted to test one more, before removing them...
However - in iTunes the Add A Podcast in the Quicklinks menu has disappeared????!!!
Have i done something wrong? Do you think i have been blocked from using it - as i have been uploading "irrelevant material" with no descriptions or something...???
Any help would be great
Cheers
Rich

The 'Add a Podcast' link does not appear in the Quick Links: possibly this is a result of the recent revamp of the appearance of the Store (it's nothing to do with your submissions). The method for submitting described in the Help, and that in the Podcast Tech Specs page don't seem to work either. You can submit a podcast at
https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/publishPodcast
If you have successfully submitted a podcast you will get a confirmation email after a week or two, giving you the URL for the Store page on which your podcast appears. In order to remove a podcast you need to follow the procedure detailed here.
You can test whether a feed works by choosing 'Subscribe to Podcast' from the 'Advanced' menu in iTunes: this doesn't involve the Store but has the same result as clicking the 'Subscribe' button on the Store page for a podcast. You can also check the validity of a podcast feed at

  • I add a podcast in music, change the type to Podcast, and it disappears

    Eventually these seem to show up again, but it's very annoying. I add a podcast because I want to listen to it now... I am on Windows 7 with iTunes 10.
    I can try to add it again, but it never shows up. It's like iTunes thinks it's already added it, but it's invisible in both Music and Podcasts.

    iTunes downloads Podcasts. What you have downloaded is not a Podcast.

    If it was delivered to you as a Podcast, you would not need to do this.

    Using the "Get Info" option, I change the "Media Kind" to be Podcast (it is set as Music).

    As I said previously, simply changing the Media Kind to Podcast does not make it a Podcast. However, since you have done that, the file, whatever it is, will move to the Podcasts section of your iTunes Library. In the Podcasts section, it should be listed by its album title. So the "Album title" in the Music section, will become the "Programme name" in Podcasts, listed under the heading Podcasts and with an arrow next to it. Click on the arrow and the list will expand to reveal the "episodes". The "episode's" name will be the song title.
    I'll say it again. A Podcast is something that has been delivered to your iTunes by the delivery method known as Podcasting. The file itself is not "a Podcast". So when someone says "you're listening to our Podcast", it's actually a shorthand way of saying "you're listening to the programme we made, and which has been delivered to you as a Podcast."
    So, to find these missing files in your iTunes, use the search facility and look in the Podcasts section of your iTunes Library for the song name. In the results that appear you will not see the song name, because what you see is the "Programme name". You need to expand each result to find your song or whatever it is.
    The reason you have trouble adding it a second time is just that, you've already added it. But you've then changed some of the information about the file and when you try to "add it again" it is no longer "music", but a "Podcast", and that's because you set it that way.
    I still don't understand why you feel the need to change the file to Podcast.
    If this material is described by its producer as a Podcast, the why don't you find the Podcast through the iTunes Store and subscribe and download it through iTunes "as a Podcast"? If the programme truely is not to be found in the iTunes Store (by using search the store), then presumably the producer has the Podcast URL (or Podcast Feed, or the RSS link) shown on their website. You can copy-and-paste that Podcast URL into your iTunes Podcasts section and subscribe (for free, usually) to the Podcast, in iTunes. Then every new epsisode of the Programme will automatically download to your iTunes, put itself into your iTunes Podcasts Library and if you have set your iPod to Sync Podcasts, iTunes will also add that Podcast episode to your iPod.
    At the moment, you appear to be making extra and uneccessary work for yourself.
    And if this material is not actually a Podcast, then why try to make it so? What are you trying to achieve? You can listen to it, even when it's Media Kind is Music. If you're trying to stop it from playing when playing your music on shuffle, then leave it as Media Kind/Music but set it to Skip on shuffle.

  • Add a podcast from rss feed

    Hi. How can I add a podcast, that is not in the iTunes podcast directory, but only is presented as a web-page and an rss-feed?

    Well everyone keeps saying to use:

  • Trying to add video podcasts to iPod Classic

    I'm trying to add video podcasts to my iPod Classic 160GB. I can see them in the podcast summary page get added in the sync, but I can not find them on my iPod. I have 5 TV shows added to it and can find them under Videos but when I add the video podcasts they do not show up in the Podcasts section. Is there something I can do?

    They should appear under Podcasts if they successfully synced over to the device. I assume you didn't see any error messages when you synced these video podcasts over to your device?
    To be sure, reset sync warnings on the iPod by right->clicking on it under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes and choosing Reset Warnings. Then resync the iPod.

  • Can't manually add some podcasts to iphone

    I've set my itunes to manually drag/drop podcasts to my 3G iPhone. Recently it's not let me add certain podcasts, without rhyme or reason. For instance, I can add the 8/30 episode of a show, but it won't let me add the 8/29 episode. I'm using my g4 Powerbook using 10.4.11, I think the problem started when I installed the latest iTunes update. This problem continues even after updating my iPhone with the 2.0.1 update.

    Yeah, I was having the same problem. I called Apple and the tech guy said it had something to do with iTunes 8. Anyway, if you go to the iPhone summary page in iTunes, then click on the podcasts tab, you can have the podcasts sync automatically. That will at least get the recent ones on there, although it doesn't actually fix the not being able to drag problem. Be warned that it will delete all non-synced podcasts from the iPhone though, so if you've got a bunch of stuff you want to keep, make sure you have copies elsewhere.

  • Podcasts missing from Music Playlists

    Front Row playlists used to show the same tracks as iTunes playlists, but in Leopard, Front Row fails to show podcast episodes in playlists. I just installed iTunes 8.0 and Front Row 2.1.6 on OSX 10.5.5, and the problem persists. What is the best workaround to let podcasts show up in Front Row playlists?
    This question has been asked in other forums without reply, so I am hoping someone in the Front Row forum can address it:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6182636
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1542877&tstart=0
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1683207&tstart=0
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7709315
    Here's my workaround in iTunes 8, but it's kludgy and only works for audio podcasts:
    1. Set "Preferences > General > Import Settings..." to something sensible (I like MP3 / 16kbps mono / 11.025 kHz for small files and MP3-CD compatibility, you may prefer higher quality).
    2. Change "Podcast / is true" to "Genre / is / Podcast" in all smart playlists (right-click a smart playlist name, select "Edit Smart Playlist").
    3. Open a playlist with podcasts you want to work with Front Row. Use shift-click, option-click, or cmd-A to select all podcast episodes in the playlist.
    4. In the Advanced menu, select Create MP3 Version or Create AAC Version (as set in prefs). Wait for iTunes to rip copies of each item.
    5. To remove doubles from smart playlists, delete the originals from the main Podcast list or add "Podcast / is false" to smart playlists.
    6. Select the playlist from Front Row > Music > Playlists. It should now have your podcasts.
    7. Tell Apple you need Front Row to show podcasts in playlists again.

    Is there a better way?

    I eventually noticed that when I plugged in the iPod, the sync preferences for Podcasts were set to something "odd" - they are now set to include ALL episodes of ALL podcasts.
    Even so, they remain missing from any playlist, however, they are available on the iPod from the podcast menu.
    The only way I've got the podcasts to appear in a playlist on the iPod was to do Get Info > Options > Media Kind change to Music (instead of Podcast). Then it all works OK.
    iTunes 8 showed no such problems.

  • ITunes 12: Can't Add Album Artwork; Missing Artwork Too

    I've been trying to add a 622X621 JPEG image to iTunes following the usual steps. (Using the Add Artwork button under Get Info and copy/paste artwork in the artwork window under Get Info.) No matter what I try it simply won't appear in iTunes.
    I'm also missing artwork for a fair number of albums that should be there but isn't...
    I tried deleting the Artwork cache so iTunes would rebuild it but still No Joy.
    I've read Apple support files, advice by the iTunes Guy at MacWorld and other websites that detail the steps for adding artwork. This should be easy to do...!
    I'm running iTunes 12.0.1.26 Mavericks 10.9.5.

    I assume that you have a few WAV-files. If so, you need to convert your WAV files into MP3 or (if you want to keep lossless formats) into a format like aiff.
    This thread might be related.

  • How can I add a podcast episode to an existing web page using iWeb?

    How can I add an episode to an existing web page using iWeb?
    I could probably figure this out but I am afraid if I make changes to the site and re-upload it to the podcast area I will have just doubled it. I see them repeated from time to time.
    What is the proper protocal? Thanks

    Hi apple-owner,
    Method 1.
    To create this scatter-plot, I selected the whole of Columns A and B. (Shift click on the Column reference tabs).
    The plot ignores blank rows, but they are "ready" for new data:
    Method 2
    If you did not select whole columns, you can extend the "active" rows. Rows 1-5 selected:
    Add more data rows and drag the fill handle (small white circle, bottom right) down

    Ian.

  • Why is "add to rig" missing from drop menu?

    I am missing the "Add To Rig" option on the drop down menu when trying to add parameters. Interesting thing is that the parameter I'm trying to add already has the rig icon showing yet isn't showing when I publish. Am I missing a simple preference or option?

  • Add employees button missing in my employees screen

    Dear Sir/Madam
    The issue is not global. The user has all required back end ECC authorizations of travel & expenses for the required company code
    If the user clicks on the my employees link, the user is not getting add employees and remove employees button
    I checked personlization of the ABAP web dynpro iview for this user, all looks ok
    Other employees having same travel assistance authorization are getting the buttons
    Any idea where is the missing stuff?
    Thanks in Advance
    -AJ

    Hi,
    Just a try, assign the user Everyone role in portal or super admin role and see if it works. I doubt it is the case but there is no harm in trying. There might be issue with End user permissions.

  • Add Employee Button missing in 'My Employees'

    Hello,
    I am facing a problem with My Employees iview in T&E. We maintained same roles for all users. However, for some users, we can see 'Add Employee' Button, for some, we can't see this.
    These are the following steps we checked.
    - In PA30, every user is linked with a personnel number.
    - Backend (ECC) roles are same for every user.
    - Frontend (Portal) roles are same for every user. (I know portal settings can't restrict the Web Dynpro ABAP buttons).
    Please suggest me a solution/documentation/check points to troubleshoot this issue. I checked SDN and Google, but without any luck.
    Appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Raj Peddisetty

    Hi,
    This may be authorization issue. After performing the scenario from portal execute the transaction SU53 in SAP backend for that user and check is any authorization is missing. You can also activate trace (ST01) in backend for that user and then perform the activity, check is any authorization is missing.
    If everything is fine than please ask ABAPer to debugg the code. They will surely be able to identify in which case the button is appearing and in which case it is missing.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sandip Biswas.

  • Add contact   icon missing from my contacts.

    I can't add new contact as there is no + icon in contacts. Problem started after I did iOS 5.0 update.
    Can anyone help?

    Check out this iPhone discussion regarding the missing + sign in the Contacts App. Hopefully one of these solutions will work for you. The iPhone app works the same was as the iPad app so this applies to the iPad as well.

    You can only transfer music and videos through iTunes. If computer/laptop music folders is what you mean of "existing library", then it would not be possible. Add your files first to iTunes then sync.

  • Adobe Reader 11 add-on is missing into IE8

    Hello,
    I have installed A. Reader 11, A. Reader 11.0.04.and after that  A.Reader 11.0.05.
    I have Win XP and IE8
    I want to able Adobe Reader Add-on but it is not listed into Manage Add-ons, in "Adobe Systems Incorporated" I just have "Shockwave Flash Object".
    How can I get it? or How can I install this A.Reader Add-on.
    Thank you very much!

    Hello Pat,
    Yes, that data is missing, but is "all add-ons"
    Note:
    If I extract the A.Reader 11.00.EXE and I install the msi and msp... never the Add-on is installed into IE8, but if I use the EXE complete I got the Add-on...
    now... these test were into my pc.... afew minutes I installed the main EXE in other computer... and the add-on was not able..
    I don´t know what happen... or if exist some switch into the msi or directly into the EXE that I can activate the Add-on in silent mode
    Pat, I found that the Add-on is not in "all add-ons"... is in Run withou permisions as you can see in the next screenshot.
    We have an application that need user & password and this applicaiton running into Internet Explorer, when some user open a pdf file into the application  into IE they reported us the next message:
    "I logged in ok and opened up "our application", the reports are still kicking to adobe which isn't allowing the drill down.   "
    " At least part of the issue is that PDFs are no longer opening in an Internet Explorer. "
    We can think that can be the Add-on in the right place (All add-ons)? or can be other thing?
    I appreciate your help!
    and thank you for answering me

  • How can I add my podcasts into an ipod shuffle?

    I have an ipod shuffle (4th G). I am trying to listen to my podcats on the go, but I am unable to add them into the ipod.
    I tried the automatic function. I also tried creating a playlist and then syncing it to the shuffle. But neither worked. Under the device tab I only have a music option, therefore I can't add podcasts manually either. Does anybody know how to do it?

    READ the article from which the question was posted.  It explicitly details exactly how to accomplish what you asked.
