Can iTunes get podcasts at a specified time?

Hi,
I have iTunes set to check for podcasts daily, which is OK, but what it really means is check for podcasts 24 hours after the last check.
I've been wondering this for a while. Is there a way of talking iTunes into only checking for podcasts at a particular time each day, say 3 AM, and only this time?
ie. The next check is 3 AM the next day, and not 24 hours since it was last checked?
Thanks.

Hello Mulder!
Thank you for your prompt information.
I have downloaded Mail Scripts 2.8.3 to my iBook G3/500 and tested.
It works with iCal application and be able to send the message as scheduled.
Also, I need to let my Macintosh computer remember the correct outgoing server and port.
If it fails to send, it will remain prompted by alart dialog box (^^;).

  • When I try to print a photo downloaded from Facebook in iPhoto, I can't get the size I specify to print correctly. Example: 5x7 prints smaller than 5x7. What do I do to solve this problem?

    When I try to print a photo downloaded from Facebook in iPhoto, I can't get the size I specify to print correctly. Example: 5x7 prints smaller than 5x7. What do I do to solve this problem?

    Those pixel dimemsions have aspect ratios that are not the same as a 5 x7 print:
    1360 x 1360 = 1.0
    790 x 640 = 1.23
    2048 x 1366 = 1.5
    An 7 x 5 image = 1.4.
    So you'll need to crop the images to 5 x 7 before printing.  The first two images are a little light in the pixels to produce a high resolution 5 x 7 print.

    Can't get email since 7am Pacific Time this morning. Anyone else having same problem?

    Discovered I could get email on my iPad, so re-entered my iCloud email password on my mac and that solved the problem.  Still a mystery as to why all of a sudden I needed to do this, but as long as it works aint complaining.

  • Can't get podcasts to download

    I'm having a horrible time getting podcasts to download (from ESPN and NPR publishers). They'll get about 1/4 of the way through and then just stop. I did a speed test and can download at 35 mbs/sec. itunes diagnostics said I passed all network connectivity tests (details below). This is driving me nuts. Please help.

    Podcasts don't come from the itunes store - they come from the podcast producer's website.
    You might try downloading them directly from the ESPN or NPR websites. That's all I can think of. My NPR podcasts seem fine, for whatever that's worth.

  • My nano completely emptied and I no longer have a podcast section, How can I get podcasts back?

    This morning I was trying to sync my iPod and add new podcasts for my commute to work later. After plugging in my iPod my computer let me know that I had damaged files and gave me an option to scan them. I did scan, now my iPod is empty, which by itself is upseting not, I see that I am back to the 1.0.4 software and no long am able to support podcasts at all. Does any one know how I can get podcasts again?

    Double check to make sure podcasts are configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.
    To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes.  This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it.  Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
    If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.
    Otherwise, are you getting any error messages when you sync your iPod Classic with iTunes?

  • Can you play podcasts one at a time on 6th gen iPod Nano?

    I've seen this question asked a few times, but I wanted to throw in my two cents.
    My 4th gen Classic and my 1st gen Nano both would allow me to play one podcast episode at a time. This was useful if I had several episodes of one podcast and fell asleep listening to one, the iPod wouldn't continue playing the other episodes, it would just stop playing at the end of the episode I was listening to.
    The 6th gen Nano I just got will automatically play the next podcast episode when the one you are listening to is finished. I perfer the old behavior of my 1st gen Nano. Is there any way to change the behavior of the 6th gen without using smart playlists or the sleep timer (I think those are kind of clunky work arounds)?
    If not, then I would like to make a feature request. The button on the left of the podcast play screen that toggles between "play one after another then stop", "play same episode over and over", and "play all episodes over and over" should have one more setting: "play this episode and then stop".
    It sounds like a pretty easy feature to add. What does everyone else think? Do you want this too?

    I looked for this feature when I changed from my now-dead Classic 160 to 6th generation Nano, but I never got a good answer. Personally, I'd rather have a setting to allow this, rather than using the sleep/wake button, because I use that for play/pause. In the old Classic, you would choose to shuffle albums if you wanted continuous play from one track to the next, and you would turn shuffle off to stop at the end of a podcast (or maybe it was the other way around—I can't remember off hand). That's not as clear as a "continue or stop" control (which would be great), but at least it worked. I don't know if that's something they can add with a software update, but it would make for a better user experience.

  • ITunes can't "get" Podcasts

    Suddenly, I can't download any podcast episodes for any program. I can see each episode as being available, but when I click get, I get a grey exclamation point and the following error:
    The URL ... could not be found on the server.
    I've gone through and checked the feeds - the files are there. I've upgraded from 9.0 to 9.0.1 - no fix. I've unsubscribed, and deleted every episode, then resubscribed again - still nothing. Help!

    I am having this same problem!!! HEEELLLLPPPPPP!!!! I want my podcasts! I dont' have internet at work....the downloading banner will pop up for like 1.5 seconds then disappear and there is just an exclamation point near the podcast....

  • Very unhappy with new podcast app...how can I get podcasts back into normal music app or possibly go back to iOS5?

    Just "upgraded" to iOS 6.0.1. Thanks to the new "Podcast App" I can no longer keep my podcasts combined with my music. I don't want access to search new podcasts, but seems like I'm forced to have access to this section of the iTunes store as it comes with the podcast app, even when the iTunes store is turned off in the Restrictions section under General Settings. I can probably tell iTunes that my podcasts are really "music" by using the "get info" option in iTunes, but then it won't let me listen to it at double-speed, which is the only way I listen to podcasts. I'm very frustrated. Is there anyway around this or a way to "downgrade"?
    If any Apple folks are listening please give us the option of how to listen to our podcasts. It's pointless to have to download one more app when it worked great the way it was. What is the point of separating them??????

    "in which case it will" force install the app ... So Yes iTunes will force install the app as I said. My gripe is with Apple yet again forcing a change onto their customers. I use iTunes for sync, so no matter how many times I delete the crappy app it will be forced back on me at the next sync. Most apps have a "remove" option in iTunes but not podcasts. Again, there is no way to stop that I can see. If you know a way to stop this iTunes behavior please document it here. Thanks at least for these forums for aggrieved Apple customers having a chance to find solutions to these issues.

  • Can iTunes PDF podcasts automatically import to iBooks?

    I subscribe to a podcast that produces PDF and ePub documents. Is there a way to have those automatically sent to iBooks without me having to do anything? For instance, when the podcast comes out it would automatically show up in my iBooks app. Is that even possible? Does iTunes already do that? Any help is appreciated!

    Well they show up a lot sooner through the RSS feed than they did on the website. At least they used to. When I first downloaded the app I was getting them weeks before they showed up online. But I think they have started putting them online the same time they released them through the RSS feed. I guess that does seem odd now haha I get what you're saying! But yeah it doesn't make sense for me to use the app now since it doesn't get them to me any faster.
