Garageband 3 podcast description doesn't make it to the song in itunes

I have the new iLife '06 with all appropriate updates and am just beginning to use garageband and iweb to make a podcast both for the web and the itunes podcast directory.
I definitely enter all the description information into the appropriate fields in garageband and then export to iWeb. Then I export the wesbite, upload to server and test by subscribing through itunes. But when I download the song, the description field is completely blank on the podcast in itunes!! I cannot figure this out. I have gone back and redone it from scratch a bunch of times. The only thing I can think of is that I am on 10.4.3 and i see that it is supported for iLife but that 10.4.4 and later is recommended. I hope that's not the problem. I'll upgrade later today and see, but has anyone else experienced this problem?
A couple of other related problems are that iWeb is truncating the name of my podcast FILE. Meaning that if someone views my podcast on the web and not through itunes and decides to download after the quicktime audio file has loaded, the file name is not exactly what I named the podcast. I don't know if there's any way around that one, but if anyone knows, I would be very thankful.
One last thing. When exporting (publishing) a podcast from iWeb to a non-dotmac server, is it absolutely necessary to enter a http://www.url.com in order for the RSS file to work properly? I want to make our rss file address something like http://www.oururl.com/rss.xml but iWeb seems to make it so that it has to be something more like http://www.oururl.com/Podcast/Podcast/rss.xml because of the nested folders associated with the website pages. Make any sense? If anyone can answer ANY of the above questions I would be grateful. Thank you.

If your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
1. Connect your iPod
2. Disable "Show Album art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes. (Disconnecting and then reconnecting your iPod will do the trick)
4. Re-enable "Show Album Art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
5. Syncronise the iPod again.

    No. That's not what I said. You can get an out of warranty replacement, which will be exactly the same model, color, and will be locked in exactly the same way the original is. If you want an iPhone 5, get the 4S replaced, sell it, and use the money to put toward a new phone.

  • Why doesn't my computer download the songs from my iphone with clouds next to them?

    Why doesn't my computer download the songs from my iphone with clouds next to them?

    You can copy iTunes purchased songs over to your computer's iTunes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, or have you tried going to the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes and seeing if you can redownload them on your computer ?

  • Can i change the genre for songs that i have in another playlist without me having to make duplicates of the song

    can i change the genre for songs that i have in another playlist without me having to make duplicates of the song for example have a songs in my playlist rock genre but in my mom playlist she made it custom for workout

    ryane84:
    Is there any reason why you keep creating new threads about the same subject?
    If you stick to one thread, perhaps you may find a solution. ed2345 is the fourth person to offer help, and yet you respond each time by creating a new thread instead of explaining (in the first thread) why the previous solution hasn't worked for you.
    But why exactly are you concerned about the genre anyway? A song can be in as many playlists as you wish, it has nothing to do with genre, unless you are creating Smart Playlists that use Genre as a rule of the list. If so, you have already been offered two solutions:
    create a second copy of the song and edit that second copy to the second Genre.
    use Grouping to cause the only copy of the song to be added to two separate Playlists.
    By the way, creating new threads and thereby ignoring those who have offered help in existing threads is impolite.

  • My iTunes doesn't make me clear some song!

    Hi Guys! I'm a new User here and I've already a problem to expose, I've installed iTunes 10.5 beta 2 ( cause I'm a beta tester of ios), this iTunes does not make me clear the last song that I've added on my library. Anybody are using the newest beta? Is it a Bug or a isolated problem?

  • Why is it that every time I hook my Ipod up to my laptop it makes duplicates of the songs in my Ipod?

    Every time I link my Ipod touch to my laptop it starts to sync with my computer even though I have it on the "manually manage music and videos" option. Along with syncing, it makes copies of the same songs that are already on my Ipod so now I have 3 of the same song on there. Is there anybody else that has had this problem? Please help!!!!!!!

    Try to delete compatibility.ini in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    That should initiate compatibility, but hopefully it won't return a next time.
    If that doesn't work then try a new profile.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • I purchased a whole cd in itunes but it doesn't play all of the song.

    It will play like 30sec-1min of it then skip to the next one. It does this on about 4-5 of the songs on the cd. I didn't realize it did this until after i bought them and then burned them onto a cd and was listening to it in the car and it started not playing all of the songs. I got back on itunes on my pc to check and see what was going on and it's doing it to the songs on there as well so it wasn't something that happened while they were being burned onto the cd. I'm new to itunes so i'm not sure if there's something i've not done. Any ideas?

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the corrupt tracks from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • My phone doesn't make sounds in the lock screen and won't take calls

    Hi, for the past 2days my phone no longer plays the alert tone in the lock screen for text messages, calender events, facebook events, voicemail atert etc however does if the phone is unlocked and I am using it. Also, nobody can call me without it going straight to voicemail however if they call a second time then they can get through and it rings.
    I cannot find a thread where anybody else had a similar problem.
    I have turned everything and off a couple of times and have checked that everything is on (i never turned it off) and have done a hard reset. All I can think off is to completely restore my phone to factory setting but I don't want to lose all my stuff!
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks everyone!

    Do you have Do Not Disturb enabled?
    Have you checked the position of the Mute switch on the left side above the volume buttons?

  • HT1478 Will "endabling disc use" and then syncing my iPod make me lose the songs on the device but not in iTunes?

    Hello.
    I am having difficulties with my iPod and my new computer (Windows 8). My laptop won't read the iPod (it disappears from the "File Explorer" after just a few seconds). I was told to save all my files to SharePod first. However, when I do this, it tells me I need to go to iTunes and "Enable Disc Use" on my iPod. When I went to do this, it began syncing my iPod, but I got worried that it would erase any songs I did not have on iTunes or did not purchase from iTunes (many songs were purchased from Amazon).
    Will syncing my iPod on my new laptop in an empty iTunes make me lose all my songs on my iPod?
    Thanks!

    It's been an hour and no one knows? Come on...

  • My Ipod doesn't show some of the songs I have? Please I need an answer

    My Ipod is perfectly organized by Artists and when I select some of them, few song are shown; for example I have 10 songs of The Doors and it only shows 4. If I search them, with the search feature, they appear. How do I fiz this?

    There are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song has no album name associated with it or 2) the song is marked as part of a compilation.
    If tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances but the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod
    Also if the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder.
    I've also seen a problem quoted that seems to be related to the “Album Artist” field in the info tab. If you have multiple songs from the same artist and one of these songs for instance has the artist name in the Album Artist field, then the songs that display on the iPod under the Artists list are restricted to that one.
    The no album one is a bit quirky. If all songs have no album, you can view them all under Music -> Artist. Also, if you have songs from two albums or more and songs with no album, it works. However if there are songs from one album and songs with no album they don't show.
