Episode shows up in Podcast app but is "not downloadable"

I am aware that iTunes is having some problems but I can't tell if this is associated with those since I had this same problem once back in November and it was never resolved.
I podcast on Tumblr, but I use feedburner to create enclosures on rich media entries labeled #podcast. I also make sure that the first link on the entry is a link to the mp3. This has always worked in the past, with the exception of my second podcast post on November 20th, which showed up in the Podcast app but not on iTunes. In the Podcast app, it had an image of a file on it and when clicked, a message appeared stating that it is not downloadable. Eventually, the file stopped showing up.
My most recent episode was posted this morning and this same thing happened; it didn't appear in iTunes and in the Podcast app it had the same file clipart and message saying it is not downloadable. I deleted it and reposted it twice, the same thing happening both times. The latest attemp can be seen in my feedburner, where all looks well.
Can someone give me some insight as to what the problem might be? Will it work itself out or will it never reappear in iTunes like my November 20th post? Any help you can offer would be grately appreciated.
My feedburner is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/HotChristmess
My podcast in the iTunes store is: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/hot-christmess/id581372446?mt=2
My Tumblr is: hotchristmess.com
Thank you!

The latest episode - all the others appear to be OK - was only posted today, so it wouldn't appear in the Store for a couple of days. However unlike the others, the media file for this one is Flash:
<enclosure url="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/HotChristmess/~5/nrpleNEMAjQ/audio_player_black.s wf" length="22688" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" />
iTunes does not handle Flash files, so it sees this episode as having no playable media: consequently it will not display the episode.

Hey Karenfromanamosa,
I fixed this problem by turning off the ipad and then turning it back on after 5-10 minutes.
Hopefully then when you play a video it will start playing.

HT204088 Today I have purchased never line app but can not download. I rechecked with credit card center it paid already. How I should do. It can refund or not?

I paid from credit card 3.98 usd already for line sticker only 1 item already but can not download. It can refund or not?

1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

Podcasts App in iOS not Downloading New Episodes for Some Podcasts

I am running version 2.2 (740) of the podcasts app in iOS 8.0.2
Some of my podcasts are no longer updating, while some continue to work normally.
If I navigate to My Podcasts > [Podcast Name] and then go into the feed tab, I cannot see any new episodes. However, If I unsubscribe and delete the podcast, then go search for it, I can see the new episodes. From here, I can even download individual episodes, but I cannot subscribe to the podcast. For some reason, the purple 'SUBSCRIBE' button does nothing when I tap it.
Is there a way to reset the Podcasts app? Do I need to hard reset the phone?
Thanks!

Since no help was coming from Apple, I decided to try uninstalling 11.1.0.126 and then re-install the newly released version of iTunes for Windows, 11.1.1.11.
The Refresh button now seems to work, and new podcast are being downloaded.

Music will not show up on my Iphone 4 even if I purchase directly from Itunes on the phone. It shows purchased in the account but will not download to the phone. Even after click on the cloud. Help

The music will show up on my iPad and on iTunes but will not show up on iPhone 4. My wife has the same issue with the 4S and both phones have been like this since we bought them. Everything synchs but music. The synch music box is checked. Any ideas????????

I have the same problem and it only affects the one song, everything else syncs

What, exactly, is your issue?

Pearl in Palm app is showing up in my apps, but I never downloaded it intentioanlly. Now I am being charged 9.99 and 2.97 for an app I do not or never did want. What can I do?

Please help?

I received an email today that a purchase was made on my itunes account. Since I was at work, I was a bit concerned. I changed my iTunes password immediately, then when I got home tonight I launched iTunes to view my purchase history.
An app was purchased for free, "Pearl-in-Palm Inf...".
Followed by three In-App purchases each called "Pearl-in-Palm Inf..." for a total of $49.97!
Took me forever to try to find a way to contact Apple. Waiting to hear back from them and hopefully get refunded that amount. Better yet, I hope they put a stop to what ever is allowing someone to steal my money.

Correct IPad PW for apps but will not download or install only installs via desktop

Sequence is select Free, enter PW, shows installing, then goes back to free button without installing. My password is correct my ID is correct. This occurs on both iPhone and iPad but allows me to access the apps via my desktop and then sync.

Please try the following. Go to Settings->iTunes & App Store
Tap on your Apple ID at the top of the screen and select 'Sign Out' then re-enter your details and click Sign In, was it successful?
If so try downloading again.
Regards,
Steve

Games I bought years ago, Texas Holdem and iQuiz will no longer transfer to my iPod Classic. They show in my computer "Apps" but they won't transfer. They no longer show that they can be "Re-Downloaded" from "Previously Purchased" they don't exist there.

Since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

I've also had the same issues, after upgrading to IOS 6.0, the apps in my iPhone 4 were crashing and the battery life run out very fast.
The only solution worked for me was to remove all mail accounts (Exchange/Gmail) from my iPhone (in settings) and then add them back.
The crashing were stopped! also the battery was back to normal.
I found the solution by first looking at the crash logs (in IOS 6). you can find them at Settings -> General -> About (at the bottom of the About menu you will find the option that opens the logs).
There i saw many logs about Low Memory crash. 99% of the logs were pointed that the largest process (use the most memory) during the crashes is "dataaccessd".
I search in the web and found that this process is a deamon process that reponsible the Mail accounts (like Exchange/Gmail) and contancts list.
I've installed the app "System Status - activity monitor" which shows important system info like CPU usage, Memory usage and running processes.
Before apply my solution (deleting the mail accounts) i saw that the CPU usage was very high which consume the battery very fast. Also i saw that the memory (RAM) was run out.. which probably what cause the crashing..
After deleting the mail accounts (at Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars) i check again with the System Status app, and saw that the memory and CPU were back to normal.
Adding the mail accounts back, still everything work ok
Hope this solution will help you too,
Enjoy!
