Does iTunes on phone access different store than iTunes on Computer?

I download several daily podcasts directly on my phone and I have noticed, lately, that a podcast will not show up on the phone's iTunes app but DOES show up on the computer's iTunes app. Do the two versions of iTunes actually access two different iTunes Stores?
The podcasts in question eventually show up on the phone's iTunes Store (maybe a day or 2 later).

1 - from what i've seen, it does not look like apple reads these forums. they are all user driven.
2 - i remember reading about this a long time ago that the iPhone store is a little behind the computer store. i would like to think that a company as big as apple is smart enough to create code that can access a single database from anywhere, be it iTunes, and iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, etc, to return results, but there may be considerations that we don't know about, so...

  • Why Does Apple Still Use a different charger than all other phones?

    I was curious as to why Apple is still using a different type of charger than most other brands?

    No, there is no such law in the U.S.
    Nor in any of the hundred or so countries where the iPhone is sold, as the iPhone would not be allowed to be sold in those countries if there was such a law.

  • Does any Verizon phone allow purchase of songs/Podcasts off COMPUTER like iTunes store??

    Love the iPhone, but Verizon didn't get it! Is there an equivalent to iTunes with the Droid, Droid X, etc!!???

    I know that itunes mp3s will play with the droid, podcast I dont knpow, I think you can but I am not 100% sure. I know you can convert the videos to some format. I have seen itunes movies play on droids before. Itunes is free to browse but not to consume. Rhapshody is 14.99 but you can consume as much media as you want to. The free apps let you download free mp3 also from the android market.

  • How long does it take to access app store during a Lion reinstall?

    After updating Safari, it does not respond at all. I am reinstalling OS X 10.7.5. I attempted this last night it never could sign into the app store. I began the process again and found that it was taking a while to begin the procss. How long should it take to start accessing the app store?

    App Store should be there at the push of a key,  depending on your download speed.

  • When trying to access itunes store all I get is a white page with word itunes store and never access the store. Is my computer blocking access?

  • Itunes locks up my PC when it starts. It tries to access the store and then the computer freezes and I have to pull the plug. Help!

    I am running Windows XP and I have an iPhone 4, but ever since 5 days ago I cannot even open up iTunes without it freezing my PC.  This happens with our without the phone plugged in. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes in the correct order and still it is happening.  Can anyone help with what might have changed in my PC settings?  TIA

    You could try wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the OS and all your programs.
    Did you install any programs yesterday?
    If not it may be best to take it to an Apple care center and have it checked out. Take it in while it is asleep so you ccan show then what is happening.

  • Why does PM7 sometimes print a different font than selected?

    When I print an entire file of 20 - 30 pages, PM7 sometimes prints a small section of the file in a font that looks like Arial even though the text is in Times New Roman. I've double-checked to ensure that the text is in fact saved in Times New Roman. When printing just the one page, the print is normal with the correct font throughout. This problem only happens twice in a 410-page document, and always on the same two pages in the same location. Help!

    Mel, I haven't used PM in many years, but I seem to recall having problems like the one you describe. As far as I can remember, if one had the time to perform a thorough check, these could nearly always be linked to something in a wrong or damaged font, and this was not always easy to spot. Sometimes it was just a single blank space in the middle of perfectly normal text, sometimes it could be a single character, or a couple of them, standing behind the text or a figure, or in a remote corner of the desktop. If one didn't have the time, sometimes it was better to rewrite the whole text in a brand new file, placing again any figures from fresh copies of the originals, and replace the troblesome page(s). But it has been so long that my recollections may not be all that good.
    Good luck.

  • How do I address songs to a different album than on the computer?

    I've just bought the new Iphone 3G but have hardly used Itunes before, that's why I need some (perhaps for you beginners) help.
    I've got plenty of albums and I do not want to have all songs on all albums in my phone. That's why I want to create a couple of new albums with my favourite songs from different artist and add to my other albums on the phone. My problem is that I do not want to change the info about what album the song belongs to on my computer, only on the Iphone.
    For example: I want to create an album with "the best of Faith no more" and I want it to contain 2 songs ("Ashes to Ashes" from the album "Album of the year" and "Epic" from the album "The Real Thing"). I want the new album (in my Iphone) to appear like any other album when I go through the cover flow (with a specific image, here is my first problem due to two different images on the two songs). Moreover I still want the song "Ashes to Ashes" belong to the album "Album of the year" on my computer (and that it has the image shown from the same album), but not on my Iphone (here it's supposed to belong to "the best of faith no more" and have a suiting image for my new album).
    The only solution I can come up with is to make different playlists, but then they will not be shown in cover flow will they!?
    When I have synchronized the music I can not edit the songs on the Iphone... so it seems I have to do, what ever I have to do, on my computer before I synchronize... :-/ (on my girlfriends iPod you can edit your songs on the iPod after you've synched, but not on my iPhone it seems...)
    How do I solve my problem?
    Cheers!
    /Niclas

    Yes, but that is not what I want. I want them to appear with my "custom made" album in cover flow on my phone. But still I want them to belong to it's original album on my computer...
    I just want to gather some songs from an artist and put it all to one album without changing the album information (on the songs that are still on my computer)where it comes from!
    Perhaps that isn't posible!? it is posible with my girlfriends iPod so I thought it would be with my iPhone as well

    When I sync my phone I get my husband's phone contact list, apps, etc and the same happens when he syncs his phone.  It does recognize our phones as different users so how can I stop this from happening when we sync?

    Did you tick the box in iTunes to sync with the Mac address book?  Are you using the same user account on your Mac, with the same contacts in the same address book?

  • IPod nano: How does the display looks like during first connection with a computer?

    Hallo everybody,
    Today I got my brand new iPod nano. I connected it to my computer approx. 30 minutes ago.
    The window in iTunes opened and I could chouse all the details. So far, so good.
    But what about the display? I can only see a black and white display with the word "iPod" in the middle of the first line and a symbol of a battery on the right.
    In the middle you can see a picture of part of the cable connection and beyond the Message "Connected. Eject before disconnecting".
    So, when will I see the home screen or the buttons? Does anyone know? Have I done somthing wrong? Or do I have to wait until the batterie is full for the first time?
    Thank you very much an greetings from Germany,
    Petra

    Hello thetwy,
    Try the reset while the ipod is plugged into the computer. Steps here:

    If that does not work, use a different usb port on your computer, and/or, try the reset on a different computer.
    Hope this helps.

  • I'm using Tiger 10.4.11, I had to wipe my drive an reload my whole operating  system recently, now my Itunes does not work, it says It's version 4, what the heck is version 4, where can I get a compatible version that works, and accesses the store like I

    I'm using Tiger 10.4.11 and had to wipe my drive and reload my system from the install discs yesterday,
    Now I'm running Itunes version 4!  It won't let me access the store, I've tried everything on the help pages,
    EVERYTHING, I need a older version of Itunes, but not as old as version 4, which, no, it will not upgrade
    automatically for me, it says no upgrade available.  Why does Mac not support older versions of
    its operating systems, why do they make it so hard to find help for those system users other than
    the money of course, but have you seen the stock lately?  They got enough money.

    Yup, your question and Diane's answer helped me also. Tho' I had had problems before getting into the iTunes store I always managed to find a way. Today they had me blocked cold with the "Update to 10" advert no matter what I did. Other questioners are being told, incorrectly as it turns out, that they have to update their OS to accomodate iTunes 10 and upgrade to iTunes 10. I did the download which did not take up much more room on my crowded old hard drive and now I'm back in business.

  • We have three different logins or accounts on our computer.  In the administrator's login, iTunes loads, syncs, and accesses the store fine.  On my two kids' logins, however, loading, syncing and acessing the store takes exponentially longer.  Any ideas?

    We have three different logins or user accounts on our comoputer.  In the administrators' login, we have no trouble opening iTunes, syncing the iPod or accessing the store.  However, in my two kids' logins, getting iTunes to recognize the device, sync it, or access the store takes exponentially longer.
    Does anyone have similiar trouble with this, and if so, do you have any suggestions?

    I think this is an excellent indicator that not only is Palm reviewing the feedback from the support forums here, but actively reviewing feedback/comments/wishes on other sites as well.
    As the original poster copied this (quite solid, IMO) wishlist from Pre Central, the palm support staff acknowledged first seeing it there.

    Please help.  I have a new nano, but I cant access the iTunes store.  When I click on the store it tells me I am accessing the store, but nothing happens.  When I have clicked on the help function I am told my computer is not connected to the Internet, which is not correct - I usually have other sites running at the time.
    Please help.
