Cannot play podcast from .mac website on iPhone's Safari

Published a podcast, using iWeb on our .mac website. Works great on my laptop, however, on the iPhone using Safari, it just shows a QuickTime icon. If you click on the icon it takes you to the quicktime site to download the latest version of quicktime. There isn't a "play" button visible to press instead.
If I subscribe to the podcast, download it into iTunes and then sync my iPhone, it works great. Is it possible to listen to podcasts right through Safari on the iPhone?

It's that way because that's the way Apple designed it.
I just merely wish to listen to them using itunes and my pc headphones while it charges the unit.
You can still connect headphones to the iPhone and listen while your PC changes the iPhone. Until Apple changes things, that's it.
You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

    iOS 6 (which runs on the iPhone 5) requires iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8 or higher.
    Upgrade OS X on your Mac.

  • Cannot play podcast contiguously after iOS 5

    Since updating my iPad 2 to iOS 5, I cannot play podcast epsiosdes within a series contiguously (one after the other in an uninterrupted manner).
    It doesn't play the next one in the series.
    I have to tap on the next one before it will play.
    Is there a Work-Around or a fix to this?
    Thank You.

    I don't know if this is your problem or not; but shortly after I updated my devices to IOS 5; I had trouble connecting to wifi. Here's what was screwy:
    MAC and Macbook Pro would only connect if they were in the same room as the router; as soon as I carried them out, they would drop off and then ask for the password, which it would not recognize.
    iPhones would not connect, although the network was there, they asked for the password, and siad it was wrong; whether I was in the same room or not.
    iPad stayed connected throughout the whole house.
    Wierd eh?
    Okay so today I took my Time Capsule o the genius bar was told that the virtual port had to be reset; and that it had nothing to do with IOS 5.  So using the Airport Utility (Applications>Utilities) they disconnected my network and created a new one...and everything works perfectly.
    So give that a try and good luck!

  • How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?

    How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?
    When I play from my phone and switch to the mini player it's always showing the music notes in the thumbnaill. It'd be nice if it could get album art off of the phone.
    I'm on iTunes version 11.0.4.4

    He @mracole,
    it is very nice that you post a solution to complete the library with artwork for album's that do not have an artwork. Your solution perfectly addresses the problem for assigning artwork, BUT this thread is about CHANGING artwork for albums already uploaded into iTunes Match. Just try to replace for example a blue artwork cover for an album with a red one. If you made it in a simple way (without deleting the album from iTunes Match and local changes on the files with an external ID3-Application or 2 or more iTunes libraries on different Mac's) this is the right place to give a solution. I really tried for hours to change the artwork to make them visible in landscape cover flow mode on my iPhone5. In rare cases I made it, but then the covers sometimes where restored to the old onces - exacly how it is mentioned by Starhawk
    As long as there is no simple way to change the cover of an iTunes Match stored album (you can change title, artist and so on without hitting "update iTunes Match" over all distributed Library on different devices - this date will be synchronized almost instantly) I considered the behaviour from iTunes as BUGGY! For me the local artwork cache (and if there is any iCloud artwork cache - I don't know) do not interfere with iCloud. Even when I delete the whole local cache (album artwork music - everything) I do not manage to change the artwork.

    Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

    Hello Turintest2,
    I am having a similar problem.  I have over 4000 songs giving me this error.  I certainily don't want to go in one by one and find them.  I know you wrote a script for Windows but I am a Mac user.  Is there a fix for me?  Here is the info on where the song is currently (used by doing the get info)
    Here's a shot of my preferences:
    Just FYI, I know that apparently iTunes is looking for this music in the trash.  However, if I go here:
    Then I find the music there as well.  (Which is where it is in my preferences.)
    Please help!  I don't want to have to go through over 4000 songs and update them one by one.

  • I cannot send emails from my IPad and IPhone

    I cannot send emails from my iPad or iPhone, but can receive them.  I can send from my iMac using the same settings and network...  Ideas?

    What is your iOS version? Try deleting the account in Mail and setting it up again. Repeat in second device if successful/necessary.

    Traded in my iPhone for a different brand of phone. I had no idea that I had to sign out of iMessage before doing this. Now, my old phone is gone and my new phone cannot receive texts from people who have iphones and had me as a contact before. They try to send an iMessage and I have no way to receive an iMessgae now. On some server somwhere my AppleID still tells people they should send me iMessages. What is the solution to this issue? Deleting my AppleID would work to solve this issue, but I cannot ever delete the ID? What can Apple do for this?

    If you did not erase your apps and data before getting rid of your old phone, try using Find My Phone and erasing everything remotely. See if this works.

  • Removing played podcasts from iTouch

    Does anyone have any advice on the best way to remove played podcasts from my touch? I have my synch settings set to sych only all unplayed. If I just delete the podcasts, they get added back in because iTunes doesn't see them as having been played. However, iTunes is not automatically deleting the podcasts that have been played from my touch. So now I'm in a situation where I have no space left on my touch because it's filled with podcasts that iTunes refuses to remove.
    I'd be very interested in hearing how I can address this problem.
    thnx,
    Christoph

    I had previously tried
    Smart Playlist - all podcasts
    . podcast is true
    Smart Playlist - unheard podcasts
    . playcount is 0
    AND
    . playlist is all podcasts
    And that didn't work, I guess because the first playlist won't update. After reading your post I thought that it ought to work the other way around if the playcount is being analysed first:
    Smart Playlist - anything unheard
    . playcount is 0 (this works fine)
    Smart Playlist - unheard podcasts
    . playlist is anything unheard
    But that won't work either. While the first playlist updates fine, the second one never updates and continues to display content that no longer appears in the playlist it is built on. Frustrating. I'm sure there must be a shortcut that hasn't occurred to me yet.

  • I cannot play music from my library on either my external drive or my laptop - keep getting same message "___ song (all of them) could not be used because the original file could not be found. I have tried changing the path in prefernces many times.

    I cannot play music from my libray on either my external drive or my laptop. I keep getting the same message - "___ song (all of them) could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have changed the path several times under preferences and it still won't recognize any songs from either my laptop hard drive or my external drive. I can't play any music at all.

    I think I've fixed this on my machine.  If you look in the ITunes folder there is a subfolder called Previous iTunes Libraries.  In my case for some reason this contained the one which had always worked and a new one was in the main  folder.  I closed iTunes, deleted the new one, and moved the old one back to the main folder, then opened iTunes.  It then rebuilt the library and it plays correctly.  Hope it works for you.

    I changed my wireless broadband to a landline-base DSL wifi and it works like a charm. Sun was the culprit even you fiddle with its router and disable firewall, it won't work.
    try changing yours too and let me know how it goes.

  • Why won't Firefox play mp4 from my website using xplornet satellite?

    I can play mp4's on my website using Firefox and dial in. When I try and use xplornet sattellite it doesn't see them .It will open wmv. If I use Explorer and teh satellite I can play them. Many people with different operating systems and browsers can play them.
    What do I have to add, change or do for Firefox to play mp4 from my website? We have loaded the latest Firefox and it still doesn't work. It ha sto do with the satellite and Firefox. We must be missing some plug in, add on or something else.
    thank You

    Hello,
    I think the problem is your OS. Firefox supports playback of H264 encoded video (mp4) but only where the ability to decode the stream is already included in the Operating System or in the hardware.
    This means that it will work for Windows Vista and above but not for XP since XP doesn't include the decoder.
    ''"To avoid patent issues, support for MPEG 4, H.264, MP3 and AAC is not built directly into Firefox. Instead it relies on support from the OS or hardware. Firefox supports these formats on the following platforms: Platform Firefox version Windows 7+ 21.0 Windows Vista 22.0 Android 20.0 Firefox OS 15.0"''

    * https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=799318
    I am not sure but it may work if you install the VLC plugin: https://wiki.videolan.org/Windows/#VLC_Plugin_for_Firefox_.28Mozilla.29
    If you have control over the site then I suggest using a different Video format which is not patent encumbered. The webm format is one option:
