Cannot Download Podcasts - iTunes 10.5.1 x64

Good Morning All -
For the past few days, I've been unable to download Podcasts in iTunes.
What Happens
I can subscribe to Podcasts via the iTunes Store and they show up in my Podcasts section, but are greyed out. (below)
When I try to click on "Get", an exclamation point is displayed to the left of the Podcast. When I click on it, I get an error message: "There was a problem downloading..." It then says "Authorization is needed to access..." (below)
Machine Specs
Lenovo Thinkpad T510
Windows 7 SP1 x64
iTunes 10.5.1.42 x64 (The issue was there before upgrading, though)
Administrator / Local Administrator rights. (Computer is joined to a domain, but I log into it as a local user which has local admin rights)
What I've Tried to Resolve the Issue - None of them worked:
Delete / Unsubscribe from all Podcasts, then Subscribe to them again
Deauthorize iTunes (My Computer), then Authorize it again
Reinstalled iTunes (Uninstall / Delete any leftover files from Profile & App Path (except library) / Reinstall
Windows Event Logs show nothing
Other Notes
About a month ago, I did create a new Library in a different folder & even on a different partition. I used it to migrate only the things I wanted to keep. I did it this way so I could take my time doing it without loosing any current data. Could this have something to do with it? I'd rather not recreate a new library again from scratch - perhaps there's a way to "reset" just the Podcasts section.
I use iTunes to sync the following devices which I own: iPhone 4 (5.0), iPad 2 Wifi (5.0), iPod Classic (~60gb), AppleTV Classic (4.x?)
I use iTunes Match
Previously, I've installed and used "TuneUp" which runs alongside iTunes to clean my library of 3500+ songs.
The combined size of my Library on disk is ~90gb and is held on a seperate drive & partition than iTunes & OS and uses the D: drive letter (Seems stupid to say, but know different drive letters can cause issues in some apps)
Lastly
So what may I do to resolve this issue? I've tried to include any information that may have a role in the error. Just in case, I ran the iTunes diagnostics and included them below. I tried to include everything, but guess there's a limit of screenshots you can apply to a post.
Thank You! - Ben K.
Diagnostics - Results Below in Screenshots
Note: Was unable to run CD Drive test due to using a 2nd hard drive in CD slot - Wouldn't think it would be issue anyways.

Disable any Anti-Virus and Firewall software on the computer then try again.

I am using itunes under windows 7.
Since December 20, I cannot download podcasts and itunes cannot connect to the store.
I am getting the error message that an unknown error 310 has appeared.
I have reinstalled itunes and all apple programs on my laptop, without success.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

I too cannot download latest itunes version. Am seeing all of the same error messages. MSVCR80.dll is missing from computer. For windows "Error 7 (Windows error 126) appears. Must be a defect in the lastest software update. How do you get Apple to respond

I too cannot download latest itunes version. Apple needs to respond and fix what is certainly a software defect. Am seeing all of the same error messages including MSCVR80.dll is missing from computer. For Windows 7 a "Error 7 (Windows errror 126) appears. How do you get Apples's attention. It is impossible to link up with real support from their website?

Remove old Apple programs, and use Explorer web-browser. (Firefox or Chrome will not do)

Cannot download podcasts in iTunes

A podcast I have been downloading for a while now is no longer downloading in iTunes, I get an Error 403 and the download fails to start.
However, I am able to download the same podcast on my iPhone.
Has anyone seen this before?

One of the podcasts is Sarcastic Gamer Radio, and another one is Max Lucado Daily devotional.
Like I said, both of them download fine directly to my iphone when I do it manually.
I've done some research, error 403 appears to mean that you do not have permission to download due to regional restrictions, both these podcasts are based in the US, however, I have downloaded them for weeks without any problems. I have tried removing and resubscribing to them, but still get the problem.

Your feed is OK, though you have not set a category - you can do this in iWeb when submitting.
The reason you cannot download the episodes is that the URL for the latest one at least does not work:
http://www.relevantcontentmedia.com/www.relevantcontentmedia.com/Media/C%20Cups% 20and%20Gentle%20Nuts%20Ep3.m4v
Either there is no file at this address or there is something wrong with it. Looking at the display of your feed in FireFox (used as an rss reader) the episodes are described as 'Video (protected)' - have you inadvertently set a password? - no password request is received when attempting to load the URL, but you don't get a 'file not found' either. On attempting to load the URL I got a blank page: looking at the source code I found:
</iframe></noscript></object></layer></table></body></html>
<script language='javascript' src='https://a12.alphagodaddy.com/hosting_ads/gd01.js'></script>
If you are trying to use a script to load the video this isn't going to work in iTunes, and evidently doesn't work in a browser either - you need to give the actual URL of the media (and ideally there should be no spaces in the filename). I'm afraid you are going to have to do some detective work.

I have a new ipad but cannot download from ITunes as I am asked to authorize the device . I cannot find where I go to do this . Apple gives the instruction ' go to iTunes and authorise' . Please help

I have anew ipad but my iTunes is on my old device . I cannot download anything from iTunes onto my new device until I have authorized it . iTunes advice is ' go to iTunes and find AUTHORIZE'. I cannot find this . Please help.

If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
If the computer's running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

HT1527 Cannot download from itunes store because store thinks i don't have 10.6.1

I get this error saying i cannot download the requested item because i don't have itunes 10.6.1. I do have - it is the 64 bit edition, windows home premium 64 is my OS. Appears store checks for 32 bit and ignores presence of 64 bit itunes.

However, I can no longer access the iTunes store as the PC just sits there in limbo.
In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

I cannot download from iTunes to iPod

For days I have been trying to download from iTunes to my new iPod, but my iPod never shows up in the source list in iTunes. I had to reinstall iTunes because it was not working properly and now it works just fine, but the iPod is not listed. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the iPod hardware more than a dozen times over the last two days, I have followed all the instructions I could find online for fixing computer problems, and I still cannot get it to work. If anyone has any ideas, please..I'll try anything.

Your not alone, I am having the very same difficulties and have re-installed, re-set etc etc many times. I also spent an hour on the phone to Apple who could not resolve my problem, and the store I purchased it from is just a retailer and cannot help either. It may be something on my computer doing some corrupting - but I just don't know! I am virtually at the end without a clue what to do next except take it back and forget about owning an iPod

Cannot Download Podcasts On iPod Touch Generation 2 Anymore

I bought my iPod Touch(gen 2) last year and I never had a problem with downloading podcasts until recently? Is my iPod obsolete?

Shouldn't have issues relating to podcats, are you receving an error?
In terms of the other, you won't be able to update the iPod, that model is around 3 years old, but it should continue to function as it always has.

I cannot download podcasts

I can't download podcasts. I can download apps and music, just not podcasts. Any ideas? Running HP Pavilion with Win 7.

No errors at all. It looks like its downloading, and then... nothing. It clears it from the "downloads" queue, and then I'm back to where I started. It does it with all podcasts. Podcasts aren't banned by parental controls.

Help-cannot download podcast from itunes to ipod. error msg

I have the IPOD video 30gb, 5th generation, and have itunes 7.02..
I am able to download the podcast from itunes into my library, but am unable to download it onto my ipod. an error msg pops up:
"...was not copied to the IPOD because it cannot be played on this IPOD."
I've searched and searched for an answer to this, and it appears to be a somewhat common problem with the itunes upgradeto 7.02
does any one have a solution?!?
HELP! (i'm an ipod newbie-and this is driving me absolutely MAD!!)

OMG-i just figured it out!!
*first of all, i came across this in the itunes store help area-->
"Why won't some video podcasts play on my iPod?
Some video podcasts, while playable in iTunes, are encoded in formats that are not compatible with iPods. To convert those videos so that they are iPod-compatible, highlight the video in iTunes, right-click on the selection, and choose "Convert Selection for iPod". iTunes will automatically re-encode the video for playback on iPod. Go to the Movies section of your Library to find and play the converted episodes.
*i had converted the podcast previously, but i had just continued to try and transfer it from the podcast section rather than going to the movie's section, and dragging it from there. once i did that, it worked!
hope this helps anyone else out there, as i did come across a few other queries...
