Can't download specific podcast episodes

I'm a new Ipod Shuffle user, and I've found the podcast I want to get. I've gone to podcasts, found the location and there are several episodes available. If I double click the episode I want, it simply starts playing. If I single click it, how do I download that single episode?
The help info simply says "To download a single episode, click Get Episode." Of course, in my version of Itunes, there is no button that says "Get Episode". I can subscribe okay and get the most recent episode, but how do I get a different episode for download? Where is the "Get Episode" button that Apple talks about in help?

Hey, never mind my question, I finally found where that freaking button was hiding! It was alllllll the way to the right on the same line with the episode. You have to condense all of the individual cells in order for the "Get Episode" button to show up, or use the scroll bar at the bottom to scroll wayyyyyy off to the right. Clever place to hide the button!

How can I download all podcast episodes in Itunes 11.1.3?

When I subscribe to a podcast, only the first episode downloads (in spite of my default settings, etc.). Now I have to manually click on each little "cloud/arrow"
icon and download them individually. Before apple developers took stupid pills and created this latest version of Itunes (that everyone hates), I could easily download all episodes at the click of one button (I mean DOWNLOAD, not just LIST all episodes, which is all it will do now when you request all episodes).

It seems to work for me. Select the entire podcast, or specific episodes from a podcast or podcasts. Right-click on the selected items and choose New Playlist from Selection.
iTunes 11.x may hide the sidebar (along the left side of window). It looks and works differently from earlier versions (before iTunes 11), when the sidebar is hidden. To show the sidebar, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. With the sidebar visible, it works (mostly) like it did in previous versions.

Can't download any podcasts on new laptop

Since transferring my iTunes library to my new laptop I am unable to update the podcasts that were already in my library. I am also unable to download any podcast episodes for new podcast subscriptions. I get the following error:
There was a problem downloading "Insert episode name here". An unknown error occurred (-48).
Please check that the URL is correct and the connection to the network is active and try again.
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Matt

Depending on the App, many are iPhone only. You can check if they have iPad versions. Or they may not. Or you might have to purchase the iPad version.

Can't download my podcast on the iphone itunes app

I made an enhanced podcast and submitted it to itunes but even though I can subscribe to the feed, sync it to my phone, and listen to it in all its podcasty glory, I can not download the same episode from the itunes app on my I phone.
I called tech support and they didn't have an answer my phone, garage band and itunes are all up to date.
Anybody seen anything like this before? Could my feed be messed up? I use squarespace.com's wysiwyg tools to control and manage my site and its feed.

I don't have an iPhone so this isn't something I can check. You could try asking in the iPhone Forum: give your podcast details and someone may be able to try it out and see what happens.

HT5731 How can I download my TV episodes to my Macbook Pro. I bought them from my iPad2, and I looked for them with the same AppleID on iTunes Store and they wont download to my iTunes.

What country are you in ? Depending upon what country that you are in then you might be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the iTunes store homepage
If you're not in a country where TV programmes can be redownloaded then connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and use the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from your iPad

I can't download last 6 episodes from tv series that I purchased. Any suggestions.

I can't download last 6 episodes of purchased tv series. There is enough space but just says unable to download at this time.

Unhiding it should get it to appear. Try closing the iTunes store app via the phone's taskbar and see if it shows when you re-open it (it may need 'refreshing') : from the home screen (i.e. not with the iTunes store app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

Can't download new podcasts or recent book purchases in iTunes

I can't download new podcasts or recent book purchases in iTunes. I'm using iTunes 10.6.1 on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.7.4. This started a week ago. I unsubscribed and resubscribed to my podcasts (no luck). I whitelisted the possible sending domains from a whitepaper I found on this site (no luck). I haven't added any other software or made any other changes to my computer configuration.
I bought these books on my iPad and they aren't downloaded there either (previously had no problems buying and downloading books to both iPad and MacBook). Interestingly, I was also unable to download App updates on my computer via iTunes until just now, when they suddenly were successfully downloaded. I've been able to download App updates on both iPad and iPhone all along.

Forgot to post the error message I've been getting when I open iTunes:
"There were problems downloading some purchased items.

Is there a way to save a specific podcast episode in the podcast?

Is there a way to specifically save a podcast episode in the Apple's podcast app so that it doesn't get deleted until you manually delete it? The way I understand is that you can go to "setting" and choose how many episodes you want to keep. But what if I want to save a specific episode permanently?
Thank you for your help.

Nothing "built in" senses file type and sorts by it that know of, and I've not heard of any third-party options.
You can have pretty good control by slight mods to how you download:
1--Set up a dedicated Downloads folder in Documents if you don't have one. Point all you browsers to that folder for catching downloads.
from here you have two options:
2A--always display that folder sorted by "Kind." That put files of similar types together
2B--within the Downloads folder, create subfolders for different file types. If you do this, instead of clicking files for downloading, right-click them. One of the contextual menu options the right-click will reveal is "Download Linked Files as...." and will force a dialog box from which you can select the subfolder that will hold that file type.

Err = 39 when attempting to download a podcast episode

I get err = 39 when attempting to load a podcast episode. I have previously succesfully downloaded other episodes of this podcast. It seems that the episode is partially downloaded but I cannot resume satisfactorily. Is there a temp file or something I can delete to restart the download from scratch.?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes there is.
Go to the iTunes download folder; on Windows XP it is My Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Downloads/ so in Windows 7 I guess it will be a folder named Downloads in the same folder as the artists.
Anyway, once you find the folder, in it there should be another folder for that Podcast. The part downloaded file will be in that folder. The solution is to delete that Podcast folder - but not the Download folder. Once you have deleted the Downloads/<Podcast name> folder, you should then be able to download the missing episode.
Let us know how you get on.

Can't download free podcast?!

i'm new to this podcast thing and i've been trying to download a podcast recently, and i can't. It says the podcast is free but it won't allow me to click on the get episode icon. what can i do???

couldn't subscribe to oprah/tolle or get free episodes
subscribe and get episodes were dimmed
deleted and unsubscribed to all of my existing podcasts
quit itunes, and when it returned, subscribe and get episodes were no longer dimmed
this was probably overkill, but it worked

I must be missing something... but how do you download old podcast episodes

Hi, I'm a little new to podcasts, and I seem to have a question already. I want to download an old episode of a podcast without downloading all the new ones. Is there anyway to do this? All I see is the subscribe button, and if I right click the one I want to download all I see is Get Info, Copy, and Copy iTunes Music Store URL. Any help is appreciated.

I just spent an hour trying to figure out the same thing. Do this:
Subscribe to podcast.
Click "Podcast" on the left hand side of your screen(under the source heading). This will display the most recent episode of the podcast.
To get to the old episodes click the little arrow on the left of the recent episode to the right of the blue dot.
The old episodes will then be listed and you can either double click them, or click "get" and they will download.

Download old podcast episodes off web then transfering?

Ok, so im sure some one else has realised that the itunes store isn't displaying old episodes of podcasts anymore, just the most recent 10 or 15.
Before, some podcasts had a certain amount of episodes available, but you could go to their website and download the episodes there, and just transfer them to itunes.
Now, when i try this, the podcast episodes transfer onto itunes, but won't transfer to my ipod 5.
Has anyone any idea how to fix this?? Or does the podcasts app stop this??
Thanks.

The link you gave me leads to a feed which is properly constructed as far as it goes but as I say is empty. Looking at the coding the text 'mp3' dopes not appear anywhere in it. You've constructed your feed in Wordpress/Powerpress and I'm afraid I can't advise on those. What have you done since originally posting?
You can see the text of your feed in the Feedvalidator report (you can ignore the two 'errors').
As you will see there is no 'item' tag nor any reference to mp3. If you are seeing a media file I can't explain that unless you aren't actually looking at the feed. The associated web page, http://www.pluggingintolife.com/podcast-page/ , has an embedded player referencing an MP3 file with a suitable URL (e.g. http not https) but it's not made it into the feed.
