Editing "Info" on Podcast

So, I've learned that I can change any mp3 lecture to a podcast simply by going to Get Info -> Options, and then changing Media Kind from Music to Podcast.
I've learned that by going to "Get Info" -> Video -> Description I can enter some text that will show up in the Description Field in iTunes.
Here's my question: I'd like to enter a "Release Date", so that my lectures can be sorted by Date, etc. -- is there any way to enter/edit/modify a "release date" on a PodCast?
Thanks!

Excellent. Yes -- that's the software I needed -- as far as the tag goes, it was almost correct. It said:
+but if you need/want to modify the Release Date then in MP3Tag/Extended Tags it corresponds to Year in the format yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ, e.g. 2008-02-20T09:10:52Z+
The correct tag is "RELEASETIME" which is the format of yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ
And that worked! Thank you!!

Editing info for podcast

Podcast location: http://www.radio4all.net/responder.php/podcast/podcast.xml?series=The+Sunrise+Oc ean+Bender
In iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/series-podcast-sunrise-ocean/id585890686
My podcast was recently accepted onto iTunes, but there is no description of the show, author, artwork, etc…When I submitted the podcast for review I wasn't given the option of the adding any info, artwork, etc…I'd like a decscritpion of the show to show in iTunes, the radio station I'm at, etc…the usual. Sorry to be a dolt, but can I edit/add that information…?…
Thanks in advance for time, and patience…

Your feed doesn't have any of the 'itunes:...' tags which are necessary to carry the artwork, author and so on; nor the xmlns 'declaration' in the second line:
<rss xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" version="2.0">
which is necessary for iTunes to be able to read these tags.
This page includes a sample basic feed so that you can see what one should look like:

There is nothing that you can do to get rid of the balance on your own. Contact iTunes Store Support and seek their assistance. I believe that they can reset your balance for you.

I have just transferred my iTunes library from a hard drive previously connected to a windows laptop to a MacBook Pro and now all my options for editing info are greyed out. I have seen the answers if still using windows but could find a similar situation

if my external hard drive is not connected to either of my machines, and I download something onto my iMac and then something different onto my Macbook, where are my machines going to be storing the new downloaded media
when the drive is not connected, +iTunes media folder location+ will default back to <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music (or media)
and when I next connect the external hard drive how will I easily get the newly downloaded media onto the external HD
you'd have to point +iTunes media folder location+ back to the external via preferences > advanced > iTunes media folder location, then file > library, organize library > consolidate files
and essentially, to have it easily readable on both machines?
in that case it might be best to copy the entire iTunes folder to the external. then, on each machine, launch iTunes while pressing option on your keyboard. when prompted, click on +choose library+ and navigate to the iTunes folder on the external.
note only one iTunes can access the iTunes library @ a time !
also, make sure the external is mounted on either machine before launching iTunes.

HT3814 Why does iTunes on my MacBook Pro not remember/save edited info about CDs? It does on my G4.

I haven't used iTunes in awhile to play CDs. Lately though it is not remembering CD info I put into iTunes. I have been using iTunes since the late 90s. I have always been able to edit info for ANY CD I play on iTunes and that computer would remember that info. Lately my MacBook Pro isn't remembering this info. I am able to edit CDs on my G4 Powerbok and it is remembering the info. (The G4 is using 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1 (5). I am using 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.6.1 (7) on the MBP.) This used to work on the MBP but I haven't dealt with CDs in 6 months or so so I don't know more closley when this behavior changed.)
I've had a go-rounds with Apple Care. Some say I have to import each track for iTunes to remember any edits on that track. I tried that today and that appears to be how things work now. That was not the case up until now. Has iTunes changed how it works?
I realize that iTunes will read file names on the CD if they are burned into the CD. I used Toast for some recent CDs I burned on the MBP awhile ago and voila, those files names are appearing whern I pop the CD in. I cannot edit them so that iTunes remembers them though unless I import whatever track I wanted to edit the info from. OK. That's a step backwards but OK. (I realize I am not editing the info on the CD itself. Once a CD is burned that's impossible, I would only be editing the info that iTunes has about it...) Most of the CDs I have burned do not have track titles as file names.
I know about the CD Info.cidb file. That is where info that I add manually (and info that Gracenote adds, which I also can edit...) gets saved. In the past I could edit ANY CD, regardless of where it came from, and that info would be saved in that file. That is not happening now.
I have moved the CD Info.cidb file to my desktop and edited some info. ITunes is NOT creating a new CD Info.cidb file.
So, has anything changed with iTunes or is there something else going on here? It could be a third-party app or an OS problem.
Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
John L
PS Apple Care is looking into this some more and will call me back next Thursday if not before then. My fingers are crossed that will have some info that is helpful. If I now have to import a track so that I can edit it (and save that info) on a CD, well, so be it but it doesn't seem to be a step forward...
PPS For some reason, Apple put this under the iTunes Store. I would have put it under just iTunes. I forget the page where I asked the title of this question (which has since been edited). It then brought me to this particular forum. I would have moved it if I could...

Basically anything not purchased from iTunes that is on my iPhone 6 will not sync over to my MacBook. I have tried to just manually back it up but only the purchased music will sync over to iTunes.

HT1451 when editing info, how do i select multiple items to edit a group? For example, changing the artist name on multiple tracks at once?

Same way you select multipl items anywhere else.
Hold ctrl and click the items you want.
If they are in consecutive order, click the 1st then Shift click the last.

ITunes - cannot edit info

I am unable to make any changes in iTunes. Usually a slow double-click allows me to change Title, Artist, Genre, etc. When I right-click and select get info, the fields are all unavailable.
Is there something I can do?

I just upgraded to windows vista and iTunes 8.0 and had the same problem with all my songs that were originally windows media player songs, all in a separate folder from iTunes. I had iTunes import them all into its library, went to get info to edit and could not. Every field was grayed out. I went to my top level separate folder, clicked properties, clicked the security tab, and clicked 'Advanced". Selected the "permission entry" that matched my computer name (i.e. User (***\User) that had permission set to 'read & execute'. Then clicked 'Edit'. After the stupid vista continue dialog box, I selected the same entry again and clicked 'Edit'. Under 'Allow' in the list of permissions I checked the 'Full Control' box. Then OK, Apply, OK, etc...
Went into iTunes, I can now edit info on all my songs. Please let me know if this helps.

Edit Info.plist Within a Published .ipa File to Enable iOS Newsstand Support?

I'm working on developing a magazine-style app using Flash CS5. I'd like to enable iOS Newsstand support for the exported .ipa file. Anyone have any experience with this? I believe that I'd need to edit the app's info.plist file within the exported .ipa bundle ...
Experiences / thoughts?
Ted

Hi Ted:
I have not implemented this yet. But as I can read on http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/StoreKit/Reference/NewsstandKit_Fram ework/_index.html, editing info.plist might take your app to newsstand but to take advantage of any NewsStand feature you will also need to write some Native Extension also that provides access to NKLibrary , NKIssue NKAssetDownload.
I think http://www.viggiosoft.com/blog/blog/2011/10/17/ios-newsstand-tutorial/ this will help you do some newsstand stuff in native code.
If you ever use newsstand, I would love to see your app, please share your iTunes link.
best of luck,
thanks,
Saumitra

Editing Info.plist in code

Can you, and if so how, edit Info.plist through a class that you've created? I'm thinking of doing something where you can change preferences that edit some settings in Info.plist (for example, LSUIElement). Thank you!

No application should ever modify its own bundle.

Not impressed! No edit info, no library management!

I really hope these can be fixed soon. As others have said, not having the ability to edit book info, which was so easy in iTunes, is terrible! And that iBooks moves all your books to a hard to find folder on your internal drive, and renames the files, equally bad.
It's great being able to read books on the mac for the first time, but everything else is a step backwards. In iTunes the books were stored neatly in the media folder and could be moved anywhere you wished with the rest of the library, and you could easily edit info, covers etc. Now it's all been taken away and we're stuck with having little to no options again.
I hope it can all be fixed soon!

exactly the same for me. This is the worst ever released application from Apple IMHO.
All my well kept and organised books and pdf's are now in disorder. Lost their category settings, their author setting and on top of all can't be edited in iBooks anymore and any further. No chance to edit wrong typings and to fill missing information (eg. authors, categories, ...).
I used to organise my papers (mostly PDF's) in iTunes like a document manager, the way I needed them on my various iOS devices and used them for work. I had groupings for my books like computing - networks, computing - guides, computing - iOS, computing - scripting, etc. .... now all is gone and lost. How am I supposed to organise over 1300 papers without any editing possibility (only sections can be assigned, no categories can be, neither can any information be edited/changed/corrected?
And on top of that all: HOW DO I BACKUP / RESTORE MY BOOKS from now on?
The books and PDF's are moved from the iTunes Library, where they were accessible and editable and where I could backup my whole media library on external NAS and storage. How will I get back my books/PDFs in the future if I setup my Mac Pro again from scratch or in case of a disaster (eg. failing disk)? Am I forced to use TimeMachine here?
There is no way to define by myselfs the place where the iBooks are stored on my system. No, they are all moved to some well hidden place into the users-library filling up my (until iBooks/Mavericks) system only SSD hard drive with hidden books. Is this the new strategy of Apple to try to make me under-age?
No editing, very limited organizing, no possibilty to define it's own storage-location, no backup/restore (no export/archive like in most other application like calender, addressbook, mail, etc. ....) what the **** is that?
I like most of Mavericks new additions but this here with iBooks is a mess and complete drawback for a user that liked to read his books on his iOS devices and was well organized.
And to be honest, I seriously consider to migrate back to OS X Mountain Lion just because of this ridiculous implementation of iBooks!

Edit info for songs

When I try to edit info on itunes 7.5, the info is "greyed" and doesn't let me make changes. Any suggestions?

You neeed to be logged in as an adminstrator.
Right click on your iTunes Music folder and slect properties, the the security tab.
You should see a list of users names. Is Your user name on it? If so select it and you should see your permissions. If not, you can add your username.
You need to have full control for your user name.
There is more on setting permissions on the following page, it is for XP, but Vista is similar:

I Lost my rating end editing info :-(

Have been young Lightroom for a while on my macbook air, and wanted more power so i bought a MacPro. Installed Lightroom and imported all images to my new time capsule an Mac Pro combine.
But i lost all of my ratings and editing info on the way. can anyone please help?

Are yo sure? Based on your info, I am not so sure. My guess, based on the info you provided, is that you have used the Time Machine to restore the images, created a brand new catalog and imported the new images again.
This is to the same as exporting the catalog (including the files, see Export as Catalog in the File menu) to a external drive and importing again to your new machine.
A possible work around is to get the Time Machine to restore your Catalog, this could work (I have never done it) if your disk layout on the new machine is exactly identical to the disk layout in the MacPro.

Recently our credit card number was stolen and the account was shut down. We will be getting a new number. My question is how do I change my itunes or app store account numbers? I found account editing info for the Verizon 3G account, but not the other

Recently our credit card number was stolen and the account was closed. My question is how do I put the new number on my itunes and app store accounts? I found the account editing info the Verizon 3G account, but haven't found it for those others.

Personally, I suggest you don't put a credit card in your iTunes account until you are actually going to make a purchase. Then there's no chance of anyone using it or your iTunes account for purchases.
To remove the old card number, edit the account (as mentioned in the previous posts above) and select None.

Editing a pubilshed podcast

Does anyone know the answer to this? Once a podcast has been submitted to the iTunes Music Store can the artwork be changed and other information edited as well-i.e., author, description, etc.?
Thank you for your help

Geoff,
Yes, you can change the artwork and other information within your feed and iTunes will then get that information eventually from your feed.
It may take a day or two or maybe more for you to see the changes because I believe Apple caches the feed info and only updates occasionally.

Editing description for podcast episodes

I was wondering if anyone knew how to edit the description when you upload a new episode of your podast?
Everytime I upload a podcast it defaults to this description <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thelightcomedy.wordpress.com&blog=62035293 &post=45&subd=thelightcomedy&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" />
I upload my podcast onto auphonic to create a mp3 link, then I upload it to wordpress where feedburner reads it and sends it to itunes. I read that you are supposed to edit the info when you save it as an mp3 or ma4 before you upload it to auphonic, but that did not work as it still gave me the same description.
If anyone can point me in the general direction of where to edit the description for each episode for how it appears on itunes I would be grateful.
Cheers,

Please post the URL of your iTunes Store page.
