Can't validate the feed and podcasts not downloading
after hours of trying various things and my eyes hurting now :0) here i am asking for help.
i can't seem to figure out what i'm doing wrong in terms of validating my feed. and due to that none of the podcasts are downloading. I went to the techspecs and followed instructions on the code and re-traced my steps...
the message that comes up at the feedvalidator is:
line 9, column 1: XML parsing error: <unknown>:9:1: unbound prefix
here is the link to my rss xml feed:
http://www.spheresofessence.com/rss/empodcast.xml
any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!
thank you
I don't see anything specifically wrong with your xml - however the previous post regarding the itunes duration tag is wrong. I have used durations up to and exceeding an hour without any problems.
<itunes:duration>01:00:02</itunes:duration>
Your length is likely represented wrong, as it appears as 12.6KB, which would be an impossibly short mp3. If the length is actually more like 1.26Mb or 12.6Mb, then the length would be represented by 1321206 or 13212058 bytes respectively.
Neither of these should invalidate your feed though.
One other thing to check is - are your mp3 files actually located at the url you've used? I get an error trying to link directly to them.

I paid for a rented film on my iPad, got the receipt but now i can't find the film and its not in my purchase history. Help!
If you rented and downloaded it on your iPad then it should be in the Videos app - if it doesn't show in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

How to download the same song(track) with different keys? iTunes seems to think I have already dowloaded the song and will not let me download the song in a different key or the Demo.
Hello Jigz19,
It sounds like you are unable to play a couple of songs from your library becuase you get a message that the computer is unauthorized to play, but other content purchased that same day works without issue. I would verify that the affected songs were purchased with the same Apple ID first:
Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1920
Open iTunes
Highlight one of the items you have purchased (You can find your purchases in your Purchases playlist).
Choose File > Get Info.
Click the Summary tab.
The Account Name area will list the account used to purchase the item. Unless you have changed accounts, this is your iTunes Store account name.
If so, then delete the songs:

Are they any app store applications we can buy or get free which will permit us to divide the i-Pad screen in 2 , at the left we , for example , read a newspaper , and at the right , we can take notes ? Thanks for tour help .
I do not think there is an app for that..... Yet. Part of the difficulty is the 'sandbox' nature of apps. One app cannot open another app. ( with a few controlled exceptions)

I haven't gotten any information from iTunes about whether or not they're reviewing my podcast but I can't resubmit the feed...

I received notice about a new cover art requirement (1400x1400 pixels) but can't find a way to change my existing art. My podcast has been updating flawlessly for several years, so I'd hate to have to remove the feed and start over.
Please note - this was not a personalized email - Apple is sending this out to ALL podcasts that are listed on iTunes.
If you are hosting with Libsyn or most any other "Podcast" host you should be ok.

If you are on a self hosted site or worse yet using some file storage service like Dropbox - then you are going to have issues.
Again - this leter from Apple does not mean anything is wrong wth your show specifically - it is a generic letter going out to all podcasters.

Can someone examine my feeds and help me determine why my podcast logo isn't showing up in iTunes? The answers on the discussion boards haven't seemed to work for me. Thank you very much!

So I set up my iPhone and everything yesterday. . .I downloaded the newest iTunes, but each time I even try connecting iTunes to the iStore, it says iTunes cannot connect to the iTunes store, unknown error occured (-3221), make sure your networ connection is secured. . .- -Well, my connection is secured and I've checked everything I could think of, but I still can't access the iStore from iTunes.
Another problem, my iPhone isn't even showing up in my iTunes. I had to use a seperate computer to even set up my iPhone. . .HELP! ! !

Just yesterday, I was getting the iTunes cannot connect message... it's happened prior to the iPhone..it just happens from time to time... I guess sometimes it just has some kind of connection error with the server. Nothing to be concerned about..that's on their side..not yours! -
I have seven(7) podcasts on my iPhone 4 that iTunes will not delete. iTunes copies them from the phone to the library and will not delete them from the phone when deleted from the library. I have replayed the podcasts over and over and they still won't delete. Podcasts are WSJ Tech briefings.
This happens to several of my podcasts whenever an updated iOS comes out. You can delete the episode directly from the phone by swiping it from left to right. That seems to fix the issue (they drop off the phone and dont reappear on iTunes). It's as if iTunes stops tracking the play count for some shows.
Hope this helps! -
i came home and my iphone is now frozzen on the apple screen and it hasnt been doing anything i put it in the charger and its not doing anything how do i get it to work so i can text and call and stuff
I got to that page but clicking on the Subscribe Free had no effect.
Nothing showed in the Podcasts nor the iTunes U.
In fact I also subscribed to Stanford's lectures and despite actually managing to DL them there is still no subscription in iTunes U, just the Intro to Computer Science belatedly.

I'd like to attach the screen grab of the out of order and randomly DLed selection of Harvard's course, but the forum won't let me attach it even though it is only 456k. Correction, close post and retry and now it lets me. NB how intermittent the DLs are and in no particular order. -
My iPhone, iPad and iPod are all associated with the same Apple ID. How can I remove the iPod and associate it with a new Apple ID without affecting the data on the other devices (note: there is no data on the iPod I want to keep)?
Very simple. Turn off Find my iDevice, then Tap Settings, General, Erase, Erase all content and settings.

How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)
Use a normal question, and do not add the score to the total score. That will give you a correct score at the end. But the total number of questions, that system variable will still take into account all questions. You'll need a user variable, and calculate its value by subtracting 1 from the system variable cpQuizInfoTotalQuestionsPerProject. Same for the progress indicator if you want to show it?
Customized Progress Indicator - Captivate blog
If you want to allow Review, you'll have to tweak as well. You didn't specify the version, and all those questions I now mentioned.
And my approach, since you talk about only one question: create a custom question, because you'll have total control then. -
I have erased my Ipad remotely thinking it was stolen. It has now been returned, but I don't want to switch it on and erase all information. Can I reverse the erase? If not, how do I restore the info?
You can't reverse the erase.
Restore from your iTune or iCloud backup. -

Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)

My iPad has been stolen. Someone broke into my house on Tuesday. I have already tried locking it through icloud. I have reported this to the authorities but they cannot do much unless I give them the serial number to the iPad. With the serial number they can put it into a database and send that inormation to pawn shops, so i the theie tries to pawn it, the pawn shop employeee can convscate the iPad and hand it over to the authorites. I need the serial number to report it to the authorities. I dont have the box it came in or the receipt and its not on my itunes on the computer because I didnt use it or music, just pictures. Can someone please help??? btw, some words are misspelled becasue the letter that comes ater the letter E, doesnt work on my keybord.
