Control where iTunes shows podcasts

I have iTunes open on a 2nd monitor next to my iMac.    Until iTunes 12, when I played a video podcast, it would always open in a tiny window - which I would expand by clicking on the green button.
Now, with iTunes 12, it opens in full screen over the windows I'm working on on my iMac's screen.   I can minimize that screen, drag it back to the side monitor, and then click the green button - to make it full screen on the 2nd monitor.    That's not what I want - I guess I will have to just drag the borders to resize the window when I get it to the proper size.
I'd really, really, like to set defaults to tell iTunes to display them on the 2nd monitor - preferably in a large window.

More generally if you open iTunes without your external HD plugged in, then iTunes may well reset your Library location to default. And start putting stuff there.

  • ITunes showing Podcasts already deleted from iPad

    iPad 3 with iOS 6.0(10A403) and iTunes on Windows 10.7.0.21:
    I deleted a couple of Easy Training Podcasts from my iPad.  If I click the Music app, it shows "No Music". If I click the Videos app, it shows "No Videos". If I go to Settings, Usage, it shows No Data for both Music and Videos.  However, if I connect to my computer and bring up iTunes, then click on Podcasts until Devices, then Podcasts, there is still an entry for Easy iPad Video How to~~~ that I can't get rid of.
    Why is that entry still there and how do I get rid of it since it's NOT on my iPad, even though iTunes is showing it.

    First try connecting your ipad right click and install from backup. if you don't see the app or itunes store...
    ...do a full restore. While it is restoring click on Itunes -> preferences -> Devices and delete your backup copy
    Or you can just Jailbreak it by going to jailbreakme.com on your ipad

  • Weird iTunes/iPod/Podcast interaction

    I've noticed something weird a few times now, when a podcast gets posted, but there's a serious problem and it gets re-posted.
    I have seen reposts on the "Coverville" Podcast, but it has never had this issue, (and the repost always has "Repost" at the start of the description.)
    but on "This Week in Media" episode 118 got posted, with some serious audio issues, and it appears to have gotten reposted, and there are now two identical entries under the podcast. iTunes seems to understand that those are two separate entries and audio files, but my iPod Classic 80GB does not.
    wheras iTunes shows one of the two entries as new, the iPod showed both copies of show 118 as new, and both of them play the older, (non-fixed) version. there are even two speaker icons for the two entries on the menu as it plays.
    Is there any way to resolve this issue? or am I going to have to wait for new firmware?

    I've just looked on the iTunes Store and there is now only episode 118 of "The Week In Media", so presumably the Podcast's producers have removed the faulty file.
    It's the Podcast's producer who provides the Podcast as a file - complete with its faults. The faulty file will be replaced, by the producer, when they realise there is a problem. It would be their (the producer's) responsibility to remove the faulty file. And therein lies the problem. If they do not remove the faulty file, iTunes and your iPod have to cope as best as they can with what appears to be two copies of the same file, with the same name!
    Imagine twin people, both with the same name! No wonder the iPod plays both!
    The resolution lies with the Podcast's producers. As with all Podcasts, they are completely independent of iTunes and Apple. All iTunes does is look for new episodes of the programmes you tell it to look for and then go and fetch them from where ever the producer stores them. They are not in the iTunes Store.
    Write to the producer of the podcast to let them know of your experience. Of course, they may not care!
    Actually, having proofread my reply, it occurs to me that what may be happening is that your iTunes is downloading the faulty file as soon as it's available, and then downloading the second, correct version when that becomes available, because it simply sees a new Podcast, not a replacement. The answer still lies with the producer. Perhaps they do not realise what is happening. Once again, write to them and let them know. Quote me if you wish.
    I personally think it's unlikely that Apple will devote resources to fix someone else's errors. I wouldn't if it was my business.

  • Having a problem installing Quicktime/itunes software can't control where it's going to download

    so i'm trying to load quicktime/itunes software on my Win7 laptop. had it on the same laptop but with vista. i can not control where the software is being downloaded too. Trying to send to my external drive labeled originally F: somehow it got changed to I:. The package doesn't recognize the label F: and says there's not enough space. I have 410gbs free! The package doesn't give me the option to change where i want to send it. Can't DL bonjour for the same reason. Safari 5 wasn't a problem. So what's the verdict, y'all? I can't update my itouch, which i'm sure sorely needs it.
    Thanks in advance
    Nagoosh

    ok so after days of trying I finally got it to work...
    here's what I did.
    1. Uninstall old versions of iTunes. Reboot.
    2. Uninstall old versions of Quicktime. Reboot.
    3. go in and remove any left over traces of QT or iTunes from hard drive
    4. Remove temp files related to itunes or quicktime. Reboot.
    5. Uninstall audio driver for audigy 2 (WDM)
    6. Install new version of iTunes
    7. reinstall drivers for audio
    8. reboot
    9. check audio drivers (for some reasons even though I reinstalled it didn't come back as the right one after the restart and was listed as disabled) update the driver.
    10. Reboot again
    11. now things should work again.
    2 quick notes... Make sure to save a backup copy of your itunes library.itl and your itunes music library.xml so you can system restore back and have the old version work, just in case.
    now I Can't be sure... but I assume something like step 9 was happening and not showing up that way in my drivers... although that doesn't explain why uninstalling and fresh installing after installation didn't fix it earlier. but it works now and I'm thrilled.

  • Where are my books!? Sync-ed iTunes 10.6.3.25 on Win7 with new iPad3 WiFi/3G and iTunes shows (on my PC) that I have 590 "ebooks" (PDF's

    Not to repaet myself, but... where are my ebooks?
    I sync-ed iTunes 10.6.3.25 on Win7 with new iPad3 WiFi/3G and iTunes shows (on my PC) that I have 590 "ebooks" (PDF's & a few epub's) on my iPad, but for the life of me I can't seem to get to them on the iPad3 itself. If I open iTunes on the iPad3 it only shows a bland grey screen with a link to the "iTunes Stores Terms and Conditions…"? And my iBooks is empty, so is Acrobat Reader which I installed?
    What gives? Gulp… help!?

    That is troubling! 
    I downloaded the Kindle app on my iPad1 tonight, logged into my Amazon.com account and was able to download the books I had bought on my Kindle to my iPad!  I am a VERY HAPPY CAMPER!

  • 3rd gen iPod Nano will not sync with latest version of iTunes. It passes the connectivity test but not the sync test under diagnostics.  Worked fine on old Windows 7 laptop but not new one.  From Control Panel it shows up as an Apple iPod USB Device...

    Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
    There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

    There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.

  • itunes:order tag is not working in the iTune Store Podcast Page!

    I used <itunes:order> tag in my podcast rss file and the items sort correctly when I subscrbe to my podcast (rss file) directly from iTune. However, after submitting and publishing the feed to iTune Store they are all out of order! Also about 30 of them are missing!!  How can I get them in the right order and add the other 30 to my podcast?

    It's not really possible to comment unless you would like to publish the URLs of both your feed and the Store page - this latter can be found by control-clicking on the podcast image (or where it should be) - and choosing 'Copy link'.  Please include the http:// in both cases to make the links clickable.

  • Where are the podcasts?

    I have an iPod with dock. I loaded a couple of podcasts on it and they show up under music-genre on the iPod itself. However, they don't show up on the iPod in iTunes. I want to manully put on and take off podcasts on the iPod because I have a nano as well. How can I see the iPod's podcasts in iTunes so I can manually delete them from the iPod?
    I did reset the iPod. Thanks for your help.

    OK.
    I've got 8 podcasts on itunes.
    I have the podcasts thingy on the main menu.
    I've got a 2GB silver ipod nano.
    WHERE ARE MY PODCASTS?
    I've tried everything,yet I still can't view them on
    my ipod.HOW DO I GET THE PODCASTS ON MY NANO?
    PLEASE HELP!!
    First of all, you don't need to use CAPS in thread title, as many people will consider this a desperate shout for attention you're not likely to get.
    Then, make sure your podcasts are synced with iPod. If they are, podcasts should be available from "Music" menu. If they 're not, browse for sync options in iTunes and make them copy to your iPod. After all, if you subscribed to video podcasts, don't be surprised you can't view them on your Nan for one obvious reason... iPod Nano can't view videos.

  • How do i find where itunes is pulling my feed from?

    How do I find where Itunes is pulling my feed from?
    I made some changes and I need to see if they are using the same feed.
    Thanks for any help

    In the podcast library of iTunes on your computer - find your show if you are already subscribed to it and right click and delete it from your Podcast library - do not unsubscribe - DELETE it. 
    Then go into the iTunes store for your show and click subscribe.
    This will ensure you are subscribing with Apple now sees as your feed.
    Go back to the library section of iTunes and the podcast sub-section and find your podcast.
    Then right click on the title and select - Copy Podcast URL.
    In your case you will see it is - http://www.ccmyrtlebeach.com/podcast/podcast.xml
    As the feed iTunes has for your show in their data base and all new subscribers will get when they click subscribe.

  • Where is my Podcast? I can download it, but it isnt registered on mainpage.

    Hi
    I thought about posting under Silja´s thread, my question is similar, still it is its own case. Here is my problem.
    Two weeks ago I posted my first podcast, through iWeb, and yes, it was a no-brainer, running Macishly smooth. I got the message that my feed - http://www.perlevennen.no/utropmisjon/Podcast_/rss.xml - was succesfully added and so on. And the URL-link to my iTunes-page is http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=303534570 .
    Well, two days ago I published my second podcast, I vaguely remember something like "it had already been submitted" - and that was the message I received on the initial submission. I tried to troubleshoot this my self before going to this discussion forum - testing my feed. As a freshman to the art of podcasting I encountered several confusing experiences. I did the "Advanced-menu-testing-subscribe to podcast. So I here is my situation: When I subscribe to my own podcast, both my episodes are downloaded to my Mac. But my main-page at iTunes shows only one epidsode. I did a check on my feed, and Mr. Feed Validator was not so happy to see me; this was his feedish reproach -
    Sorry
    This feed does not validate.
    line 11, column 4: Missing image element: title [help]
    </image>
    ^
    In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendations.
    Your feed appears to be encoded as "UTF-8", but your server is reporting "US-ASCII" [help]
    line 2, column 0: Use of unknown namespace: http://www.apple.com/iweb [help]
    <rss xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" xmlns:iweb="h ...
    line 4, column 11: title should not be blank [help]
    <title></title>
    ^
    line 50, column 2: Missing atom:link with rel="self" [help]
    </channel>
    ^
    So, anyone, I have no idea and would be really thankful to get some perspectives to where I am. My question is: Is the feed constant? Do I use the same each time I submit a new podcast? As an iWeb08-user, can I expect similar troubles in the future? My new podcast is undoubtly
    Sincerly
    Morten Chr. Abarhamsen

    When you add an episode to a podcast, you don't re-submit: you simply update the feed (in the case of iWeb you add the new episode and republish). That's all you need to do. Both your episodes are available when subscribing from the 'subscribe' button on the iTunes Store page (because subscribing refers directly to your feed), but that page hasn't yet updated. It usually takes 24-48 hours for a new episode to appear in the store; it can longer, but I should give it at least 48 hours from the time you uploaded the episode before you start worrying.
    The errors Feedvalidator has thrown up mostly don't matter. iWeb seems to leave out the 'title' but the 'iTunes: name' is there and shows in the Store. The UTF-8 message happens a lot and doesn't seem to matter to iTunes. Some of these errors only matter if you want the feed to be subscribable in Atom feed readers.

  • ITunes showing albums out of order iOS 7 - iTunes showing nothing not on iPad but have to download by each album

    I really didn't think they could screw up iTunes more but it seems they have. It seems that iTunes is the one branch of the Apple tree that has been left to run ragged and alienate customers at will. Design, Marketing, Support and Stores still seem to be the same Apple and functioning in a way to grow as well as retain customer base. iTunes - not so much.
    All albums showing out of track order on iPad now - this is a real treat for live concert albums especially. I will note that this is the case for both albums purchased from iTunes as well as copies of CDs I had already purchased and ripped but fixed their titles to sync with iTunes versions (that's another bone to pick that there should be a simple way to tell iTunes yes this is that album - so the in the store function works and album art is simply facilitated - they loose sales daily from the inability to hit in the store for CDs that you ripped from your purchased copies but that impulsive purchase that iTunes makes millions from is lost because most people do not spend the sometimes hours to link them back in)
    How do I fix this?
    iTunes Store shows no purchases not on the iPad but I have to download album by album because they aren't there.
    How do I fix this?
    iTunes regularly forgetting album art?
    How do I fix this?
    I get the aesthetic that they were going with for iOS 7, and in most cases I think it works. iTunes is a mess. While yes I did like the visual album flip that has now been removed completely (but used in other ways or at least the style is now your safari pages on mobile) but the white is way too much most especially in the case of "currently playing" changing that mode from a great visual leaving the iPad playing playlists to an incredibly nasty stark light fixture. I do understand the design decision to make album covers appear smaller so that their retina screens are looking their best but I am hoping there is a way to chance the background in this mode. If not it has become completely useless to me and I am sure many others.
    How do I fix this? Can I fix this?

    I ended up fixing my issue. The problem was the fact that some of the songs in an album were marked as part of a compilation, but some were not. iTunes seems to be less strict about grouping things in albums, so I never really noticed it.
    However, this, combined with the fact that I could not update the metadata after the song is added to iCloud resulted in me changing the metadata on the computer, only to have it reset when I updated Match. I solved the problem by deleted everything from iCloud and rematching it, but only after I had corrected the compilation issue.
    So, if you are havng the same issue, delete and readd everything to iCloud. I deleted everything from a second PC (that had no locally stored files) and then rematched from my laptop (where iTunes asked whether I wanted to add to iCloud, keep the song, or delete it. Choose "Add to iCloud" to rematch).

  • Songs in my Itunes show up as separate folders.  How do I combine them into one album?

    Songs in my Itunes show up as separate folders.  How do I combine them into one album?

    Is this one of those CDs where the main artist asks their friend to sing a song with them?
    Such as, Slash's new album. Track 1 is "Slash Feat. Ian Astbury", track 2 is "Slash Feat. Ozzy Osbourne" and so on.
    To fix this, select all the tracks on that album, right-click > Get Info, and say YES to changing multiple items.
    Put "Slash" in the *Album Artist* field (for this example, of course).
    Make sure it is the *Album Artist* field, not the plain Artist field.
