How do I list a 10.5 server user blog/podcast on iTunes Store?

It may be simple but even Enterprise support sent me here to ask.
I just had to reinstall my entire server thanks to the 10.5.6 update. I had a blog setup before as a static website and manually updated it using iWeb and then <ugly> I added all the iTunes RSS tags by hand.</ugly>
This time I want to rebuild it using the web-services "user blog" in OSX server.
I have it up now, I made a user named "podcast" and he has a user blog/podcast. Everything works fine with iTunes clients directly subscribing from our blog page. But how do I get him listed on the iTunes store? Can I keep my current (before the crash) listing at the iTunes store and just point it to the new location?
I do not see where to insert the iTunes RSS tags into the new user blog, I have poked around the collaboration folder to no avail.
Thanks for the help!

Your new feed appears to be valid in format, but the URLs given in the 'enclosure' tags, which locate the media files for iTunes, won't work: an example is http://10.0.0.2//users/podcast/weblog/57eb8/images/a668e.mov
You need to give the full URL, accessible to the outside world. You can check the validity of a feed by using the 'Advanced' menu in iTunes and choosing 'subscribe to podcast'. This subscribes you to the feed without involving the iTunes Store.
The process for moving the feed, given in the link I gave you, needs you to have a valid feed at the old address, with the added 'itunes:new-url' tag, and a valid (ideally identical apart from that tag) feed at the new URL: obviously the old feed must be maintained until iTunes has switched to the new one (expect it to take several days). If both feeds are correct the process is seamless.
When iTunes has switched it will be reliant on the new feed, so this needs to contain all the necessary information: if you are using something built into OSX Server to make your podcast I can't advise on that and you could try the forum as I mentioned above.

Authorization and Deauthorization
Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

Trying to purchase music and received this message: Could not purchase "Wish List". An unknown error occurred (5002) in the iTunes store. Try again later. I have tryed multiple times and still keep getting this error message. I have the downloaded the latest iTunes version. What is the answer?

So you already followed these steps?
This alert is often the result of an issue with verifying your billing.
Quit iTunes.
Open iTunes.
Test the issue.
If it persists, sign in to store.apple.com using your iTunes account
Click on Change account information
Modify or remove your credit card information.
Click Continue.
Test the issue.
If you have I'd try calling AppleCare back and telling the it is error 5002 and already tried troubleshooting steps as listed in TS3297 and that you have already tried to email iTunes support and have yet to recieve a response.

HT5699 I forgot the answers for security questions, how can I reset them and get the access back to the iTunes store?

Need help to get access to iTunes store. I bought an iTunes card bor buying on iTunes store.
I forgot the answers for security questions, how can I reset them and get the access back to the iTunes store?

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

How do I find games for iPod 5.5 80GB in the iTunes Store?

How do I find games for iPod 5.5 80GB in the iTunes Store?

The german iTunes Support has informed me that I am also under the Apps matching games for my iPod 5.5 80GB.

My touch screen isnt working. There is definitly something wrong thats out of my power. Its a ipod 3g 8gb. How much will it cost to get it fix at a local itunes store

My touch screen isnt working. There is definitly something wrong thats out of my power. Its a ipod 3g 8gb. How much will it cost to get it fix at a local itunes store. i really need to know

First if your iPod is 8gb it is not a 3g. It's probably a 2g.
Apple will replace your iPod for $99. This is a complete replacement not a repair. This won't be done at an Apple store.
See: http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipod
There are third party repair shops that might be able to do a repair. Google search for them.

Not sure why support would have you ask that in the server/web forum. That has nothing to do with the Server OS and the Web service. I'd recommend posting in the iTunes forum. That at least has something to do with what you're trying to accomplish.
Wish I could be more help.

Help getting archived podcasts into itunes store list

Hey all
Recently we've switched over storage for our podcasts and started a brand new feed. the thing is that we have archives we would like to post from the past two years. in the iTunes store browser only our 5 most recent are showing up. how do i add in the older episodes so that they are available for DL as well?
thanks in advance.
andrew

iTunes gets all its information from the feed, so episodes listed there will show. There isn't, AFAIK, any limit to the number of episodes (I saw one podcast with over 300); however many podcast creation programs automatically limit the number of episodes shown, removing old ones as you add new ones. There is usually a setting to change this: for iWeb please see this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=375665
for other programs/online services you will have to look around the settings.

Accidently erased older podcast. Itunes store does not list it

I subscribe to SciFri & wan't to save a partiular episode that was downloaded 4 months ago. I accidently deleted it the other day & want to reload it. The problem is that the itunes store only lists the past 50 episodes & does not go back far enough for the one I want. I went to the SciFri site & found it there but there is no Mp3 download link that I can find. How do I go get the store to list it. It's from August?

I found the poscast in my Itunes library so I guess my problem is solved. However, I would still like to know if there is a way to list old podcasts. I have a feeling It might be related to the source web site. I went to the SciFri site & they had an archive with older podcasts that could be listened to but not downloaded. However, podcasts less than about 2 months old were downloadable. That may be why they were not available in Itunes. OTOH, other podcast sites have archives going back years that can be easily downloaded.I have concluded that this is probably the answer I was seeking. Any comments appreciated.

How is it possible to cancel (not suspend) a video download from iTunes Store (iPad under iOs 6)? (I do not have sufficient storage space on my iPad)

Hi,
I am facing the following difficulty with my iPad (model MD369NF/A) under iOs 6.1.3.
I have bought 2 videos on iTunes Store, but I do not succeed in downloading them: an error message mentions that iPas does not have enough storage capacity.
As a matter of face, when I look at the way the storage is used, I find “Others” for around 10 Go (is there some king of reserved space for the downloading of videos from iTunes Store?), and only a very small number of Mo available.
I would simply like to cancel the downloading of the 2 videos, and hope that it would free the "Others" storage space (in the hypothesis that "Others" is space reserved for videos once downloaded), but I do not manage to do it. I can suspend the downloading, but I do not see how to cancel it.
Would you have a solution to propose ?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Nicolas

Hey Nicolas36,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The following article outlines issues with free space, capacity, and a large amount of "other" space. You'll want to connect your iPad to your computer with iTunes to follow the steps:
iOS: 'Not enough free space' alert when trying to sync
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1503
One symptom of this issue will be displayed in iTunes where the Capacity indicator for the iOS device will report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the device. To resolve this issue:
- Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
- Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
- Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
- Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
Thanks,
Matt M.

How do I put artwork on my own podcast in itunes store?

I just created a new podcast using audacity. Got the first episode recorded, exported as an MP3, uploaded to Podbean, submitted it to itunes and got approved. It is now searchable in the itunes store.
When I pull it up on itunes on my computer it now shows my created artwork for the podcast. I did this by right-clicking "get info" and saving image from my computer. I searched for and subscribed to the podcast myself...no problems. When I download it to my ipod it does fine and shows my artwork on the ipod.
BUT, when anyone else searches it on their own itunes, the image is just the generic podbean image...not my artwork I created for the podcast.
Can anyone help? I am new to the whole podcast thing so if you could use easy and detailed wording I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
p.s. I am looking to apply the artwork to my entire podcast...not just a siingle episode.

There are two separate image types here.
The 'Podcast Image' which appears in the Store page is referenced in the feed in the 'itunes:image' tag. Presumably as you are using PodBean you can't modify the feed directly yourself so you will have to find out how Podbean allows you to add this tag - presumabnly by providing a place for you to specify the image.
The 'Cover Art' - the image which appears in the bottom left-hand corner of iTunes when you subscribe - is not referenced in the feed but actually embedded in the media file: from what you say you appear to have done this.

How do I clear "Download error. Tap to retry." from iTunes Store?

I have about 50 songs that I previously tried to download to my iPhone 4S (iOS 7.0.4) from iTunes Match. They all failed, and I have since removed them from my library, but they are still all showing in the Downloads section of iTunes Store on my iPhone. Retrying the downloads continually fails, obviously. Is there any way to clear the list of failed downloads? I don't see any way to cancel them.

Can cancel 1-at-a-time by swiping and clicking on delete. But this is only helpful if you have a handful of downloads. If you have thousands of them waiting .... Well, I have this question too.
