Episode description shows up in all web and desktop clients but not iOS 7 podcast app

I'm a podcast producer, and I've encountered a weird problem with episode descriptions. Namely, they are not showing up in the podcast app for iOS 7. (I have not had the opportunity to check phones other than my own.)
Browsing this forum, it seems like other people have reported similar problems, but they all came down to feed metadata problems, which were preventing episode descriptions from showing up anywhere on iTunes. While it's certainly possible that something is wrong with my feed metadata, what's weird is that episode descriptions show up just fine in iTunes, or if I look at my iTunes URL in a web browser. It's just on iOS that there's a problem. And yes, I do know that you have to be subscribed and tap the little 'i' - that just takes me to a page with my episode's length, data size (almost always very incorrect) and no description.
Anyone have any ideas?
For reference, here is my feed URL:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/toafn
And here we are on the iTunes store:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-once-and-future-nerd/id711119555
Thanks guys.

You are using feedburner - and with it you have it tracking stats - turn that off.
That is known to cause issues - especially with iOS devices.
In your feedburner settings.
under - Analyze  and then  "Configure Stats"  - make sure all items are deselected.
And then under - Optimize -  and then "smartcast"  make sure "include itunes podcasting elements" is also NOT selected.
That should take care of issues people are seeing.

  • IPod shows up in My Computer and iTunes diagnostic, but not in iTunes!

    Basically, I my iPod recently stopped responding. iTunes won't detect it when I connect it. The iPod shows up in My Computer and as connected when I run the iPod diagnostics through iTunes. iTunes also automatically opens when I connect the iPod. Why won't the iPod appear in iTunes, and how can I get it to appear? I don't care about anything on the iPod, as I have backups. Please help. Thanks.

    Oh yes, I've also tried Apple's "iPod recognized by Windows but not iTunes" page. I have reinstalled iTunes, reset my iPod, and even reset the iPod Service.

  • My recent podcasts are showing on iTunes site but not in podcast app or iTunes

    Hi,
    I've never used this forum before, but am struggling to find out what is going wrong with my podcasts.
    I have a podcast that has been running fine for some time, but now no longer updates in the podcast app, or in my podcast subscriptions in iTunes.
    This is the podcast >>> https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/slam-radio/id584845850
    The last episode I can see in my iTunes podcast subscriptions and podcast app is episode 55, yet the most recent, episode 59, shows fine on the itunes website.
    Is there a reason that I can listen to the most recent episode via the itunes site, but my subscriptions wont update?
    It seems that the problem has been experienced by several people.
    As far as I'm aware, I havent changed the way I do anything.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    The 'itunes:summary' tag for the episode of 19th January ends like this -
    &quot;This year, I will exercise more.&quot...</itunes:summary>
    As the '&quot;' tag has been truncated you have an ampersand (indicating the start of a code sequence) but the code is never finished. This renders the rest of the feed unreadable, and as that includes the closing tags the entire feed is invalidated and iTunes cannot read it.
    There's no reason to have all these '&quot;' tags - just type " (iTunes won't render the code but will display it, which looks messy) - but in any case don't let a code be truncated like that or you will have this problem.
    Incidentally it's better all round to start your own thread when you have a query, rather than tag on to an existing one which can cause confusion if a discussion is ongoing. You're also more likely to be noticed.

    Notification settings on iPad 3 are set properly but my new IPad does not get alert badges or rounds on apps with all notifications selected and in notifications center.  Why?  Others are reporting same problem.

    Do you have system sounds muted?  Check the button above your volume control on the right hand side of the iPad.  If, when you change the button you see mute on your screen, you'll restore system sounds.  If you see lock orientation, you can restore system sounds by double tapping your home button to bring up the task bar (most recently used apps).  With your finger swipe those apps all the way to the right to reveal a mute icon on the left.  Touch that icon and you'll restore system sounds. 
    Let us know if that was the issue.

    Hi,
    First of all, you'll need to work out if the problem is install/machine based, or user-based. Get the users than can't open the file to log in on the machines of the two people that can open the report. What happens?
    If they can open the report on the other machine, it's a client issue, I'd suggest a double-check that the versions match and/or a re-install.
    If they can't open the reports on the other machines then it's a server/user problem. Either examine the user accounts to identify the differences, or just re-create the users from scratch to match the two users who can open the reports.

    My old pc was running on windows 7 and my new one is an apple running on Lion.

    But the bookmarks are not there, I tried merging data and replacing data on this computer options but is the same.

  • Adobe extension show in the Extension Manager and are enabled but do not appear at all in Photoshop CC 2014.

    Adobe extensions show in the Extension Manager and are enabled but do not appear at all in Photoshop CC 2014.  Third party extensions do show up and can be used.  All extensions are available in and can be used Photoshop CC.  I have reinstalled CC and Extension Manager to the most recent releases and the Adobe extensions are still not available in Photoshop CC 2014.  What should I do now?

    Flash based extensions are not supported by PS CC 2014 anymore. Please refer to http://blogs.adobe.com/photoshopdotcom/2014/04/photoshop-spring-cleaning.html, http://blogs.adobe.com/jkost/2014/06/installing-the-2014-release-of-creative-cloud.html

    There is a new Kuler HTML5 panel available on Add Ons: http://adobe.ly/UgxQSN
    Adobe is working on HTML  based version of Adobe Watermark, eMailer, etc.
    If some extensions are must have for you, you have to continue to use PS CC until HTML based counterparts become available.

  • I can't enter gmail. The error 'The page isn't redirecting properly' shows up. I can access gmail on my phone and with IE, but not firefox.

    I've tried to clear the cache and delete the cookies from gmail, but neither has worked. I can access gmail from my phone and through IE but not firefox. I also use the gmail gadget on my igoogle page and it does not work either.

    Top of your browser click on Firefox, select Options
    Select "Use Custom Setting for History"
    Then click show cookies, then remove All Cookies
    Close browser and restart, should work nicely
    Simple fix (cause of the problem, since you select copy Cookies and History, Favs from Explorer they are clearly not compatible, so that is why you get the error)
    Firefox guys need to fix this is serious challenge for new users.

    You need to restore the iPhone via recovery mode. To do this follow the link below to guide you:

    Because you need to restore to factory settings all data on the iPhone will be erased. Because the iPhone was never backed up most of the data you won't be able to get back.

    I have a new iPad with wifi. When I send messages I can see my sons and my husbands but not my phone number.  We all have an iPad and all use the same apple ID as iPad the bill.  How can I remove their numbers and add mine?

    Add another e-mail account to your messages, so people could reach you on that e-mail from messages. As soon as you are online (if you have wifi only iPad) you are able to send and receive messages. i.e. your son can send you a messages from his iPhone addressing it to your (that additional) e-mail address.

    Hi, I have had an LG Octane for 4 years and loved it. I used it for email, surfing the web and facebook. But 6 weeks ago I stopped getting text messages, I could send but not receive.  I was told it was just worn out.  So I ordered another Octane from ebay, and it wouldn't connect to the internet. I was told by Verizon that the software had been changed.  So I ordered a NEW in Box Octane and I am having trouble with that too. Bing won't work, nothing will work that will enable me to download Verizon Opera mini that still works on my old phone. I have a smart phone with another number but I LOVE the Octane for daily use. Why will my old Octane work but I can't get a NEW one to.  Verizon guys are stumped too:( Please help!!  Thanks!
