How to export my podcast subscriptions

Hi,
I would like to copy a list of all my subscribed podcasts from my old computer to a new one. Is it possible to do this in iTunes, I wouldn't like to subscribe all podcasts again on the new computer?

Hi Tare,
here is the information I posted in a previous thread, works fine for me - and should be no problem at all doing it just one time, like in your case.
=== Quote following ===
Firstly, I would also like to have a "profile backup" option, or at least let me specify a folder for these files. (like it can be done for the iTunes Music Folder)
My little workaround:
The files you are looking for reside in your "My Documents" folder in your windows user directory. Look for "My Music" which should contain the iTunes folder. In there are two files:
iTunes Library.itl (binary - *****)
iTunes Music Library.xml (song file information)
These files are responsible for holding the information on subscriptions.
I'm a iTunes-only user, no iPod.
What I did to have "my" iTunes from work and from home is this:
*) Use of a USB-HD, where I place my "iTunes Music Folder", to have all files just in one place.
*) Wrote a little script which copies the two mentioned files from my user directory folder to the USB-HD and vice-versa. This script resides on the computer from which I start iTunes, to copy the files to the right directory.
If you just want to have your subscriptions available from multiple places (and no song files), a USB stick might do as well. Even for a few song files too, depending on the size of it.

  • How can I save podcast subscriptions?

    I'm running into a frequent "iTunes Library is Damaged" problem on my Mac so I have to rebuild my iTunes library at least once a month.
    I know how to restore my files quickly and eaisily but the biggest pain is resubscribing to my podcasts.
    I like to delete my podcast files as soon as I'm done listening to them. This causes a problem if there are no files in a podcast subscription left on my hard drive when the inevitable iTunes crash happens. I have to remember the podcasts that are missing and then go and find them to resubscribe. I'm behind a corporate firewall much of the time and subscribing to podcasts thru the iTunes Store rarely works. I can usually get subscriptions to work if I go to a podcasters website directly, copy the URL with the XML info and paste into "Subscribe to Podcast" window in iTunes.
    Once subscribed to a podcast the corporate firewall rarely interferes with the "Refresh" of podcasts, they download like clockwork. For some reason, getting the initial subscription is the big pain.
    So to restate the question...how do I save podcasts subscriptions (not the actual files...just the URL) to podcasts?

  • HT6546 How do you get podcast subscriptions to download on my iMac?

    I had several podcast subscriptions automatically downloading daily to iTunes on my iMac. When I installed Maverick they stopped and I can't find a way to get them started again. I looked for help on the iTunes site and all it talks about is in connection with a device and nothing about my computer. It tells me to click on things that do not exist and is totally worthless. I tried to resubscribe in the normal manner and it doesn't work beyond downloading a single episode while I wait. it only downloads at the speed of listening to it. How do I get these podcasts started again?

    The very first thing you should have done when you got the new External was to change to Mac compatible to Extended and Journaled then all will be well again. Get out the paperwork that came with the Drive and read it.

  • Recover Podcast Subscriptions

    I bought a new computer to replace my old one, and installed iTunes. Now I'm trying to figure out how to recover my podcast subscriptions, including the record of which episodes I've have and haven't listened to. What I'm trying to avoid is having to manually subscribe to them all again, and then manually try to remember which eposides I've already listened to.

    All iTunes data (playlists, playcounts, etc) are contained in the iTunesLibrary.itl file.
    This file is contained in the iTunes folder.
    Restore the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer or the backup of the old computer and iTunes will be exactly as it was.

  • How do I move my iTunes podcast subscriptions to a new computer?

    I have a Dell computer running Windows XP.
    I just purchased an Inspiron laptop running Vista and want to move my podcast subscriptions (I have a lot of them) to the new installation of iTunes on the laptop.
    I cannot find any instructions on how to do this.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks. - Love my iPhone!

    Probably the most straightforward way to get iTunes onto your second computer is to network it with the first one and copy your iTunes folder across. Start by consolidating your library. When you consolidate, any songs in the iTunes Library that are not in the iTunes Music Folder are copied to the Music Folder and the Library is updated to point to those new files. Files already in the iTunes Music Folder have no changes made to them: Copying all your iTunes files to one location - Windows
    Copying the whole folder brings with it the iTunes Music folder and also the iTunes Library (iTunes Library.itl in Windows) database file which holds all the information about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). You'll get more information including the Folder/File structure in this article: What are the iTunes library files?
    When you copy the iTunes folder make sure you put it into the same location on the new computer. On a PC the default location is \Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\ (or C:\Username\Music\ in Vista). You should also use the same version of iTunes on both computers.
    You can also use this method with an external hard drive, you drag the folder from the first computer to the external drive and then from the drive to the second computer.
    If you have and iPod, some iPods can be used as an external drive and you can use them to move your iTunes (this option isn't available with the iPod Touch): How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
    If you have any iTunes purchases in your library don't forget that you'll need to authorise your new computer to play them. Also if you are disposing of the old one remember to deauthorise it so you don't use up one of your allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

  • How do I merge multiple subscriptions to the same podcast?

    In iTunes I have multiple subscriptions to the same identical podcast (same podcast name and same url) ... some of the subscriptions have duplicated entries and some have unique entries ... (how this happened I have no idea, but that is beside the point) ... my question is how do I merge these multiple subscriptions into a single podcast subscription? I have tried cut & paste in the hope that I could then delete (unsubscribe) to all of the redundant/repeated subscriptions, but that does not work ... in explorer I have found that ALL my podcast files from ALL my podcast subscriptions are found in a single folder .. so all the entries from my multiple subscriptions are there as well ... this smoked my hope that each podcast subscription would have it's own folder or sub-folder ... so I'm stuck ... does anyone know how I can merge multiple subscriptions to the same podcast into a single podcast subscription (without my losing the uniques scattered throuhout the mutiple subscriptions) ... ???

    I would love to be able to do exactly what you are suggesting .. the problem is, if I delete the duplicate subscriptions, I lose the unique files unique to the duplicate subscription I delete ... the problem is that I can't find a way to save/move the uniques (in advance of deleting the duplicate subscription) into a single subscription ... is there a way to do this ??? Does anyone know how to do this ??? Please help !!!

  • How do you export a podcast series?

    Is there a way to burn to CD or export a Podcast series? In other words, I have a podcast I subscribe to with several sessions. How can I burn the entire series to a CD, or export it? I want to transfer a podcast series to my desktop to put on my iPod or archive.
    If I transfer the individual files, there is no way I can find to get iTunes to recognize the podcast. it'll play them, but it won't put them in the appropriate podcast playlist. It also won't copy the playlist information.
    For example, my Ebert & Roeper has the movie reviews for the month of September. Each Review has the week name in the Podcast, and a complete description. How do I transfer this intact to another computer?
    Thanks.

    Hi aandd, you buy the series and seasons from iTunes and itunes stores the fact you have purchased them in your account.  You can then stream them through apple tv whenever and how often you want.

  • How to I export my podcasts list to OPML?

    As the title says...
    You used to be able to do this by right-clicking on 'podcasts' in the lists of sources, but with the war on the sidebar intensifying this doesn't appear to be the case any more.  The only place you can find 'podcasts' as a source is under Podcast playlists, and right clicking it now options for play and shuffle only.
    Is OPML export still possible some other way, or has it been removed (and thus another retrograde step in a long list relating to v12)?

    Sorry - scratch that.  Found the answer:
    http://support.downcastapp.com/customer/portal/articles/476143-importing-podcast -subscriptions
    (when you select save as... it offers to save a file called podcasts.txt but you can change the file type to opml before saving)
    Hope this helps someone else

  • How to Backup Podcast Subscriptions?

    How do you backup the iTunes podcast subscriptions (don't want to backup the actual media files, just the subscriptions)?
    I want to be able to restore exactly where I left off as well. I don't want to have to re-download all the episodes from the subscription and remove the ones I've already listened to.
    Also would like to use the backup feature to synchronize between my home iTunes subscriptions and work.
    If the feature is not built into iTunes, is there a file, a folder, a registry key that contains the information?

  • HT4539 When I'm no longer interested, how do I stop a podcast subscription?

    It's clear how to subscribe to a podcast series.  However, eventually I want to move on to something else and not get any more of ABCD podcast.  So how do I discontinue the subscription?

    I should add that I have tried the online on how to restore but it says it has to be through iTunes and iTunes doesn't even recognize the iPod at this point. The iPod is an iPod 2 classic I believe.

  • How can I cancel my subscription of export pdf which I bought by mistake?

    HOw can I cancel my subscription of export pdf which I bought by mistake

    Hi Nathalieschembri,
    I've checked your account, but don't see any order history under the email address you use here in the forums. Is it possible that you used a different email address or purchased ExportPDF as in in-app purchase from the Reader mobile app? (For the latter, you would need to contact the App store from which you purchased the subscription--Adobe doesn't handle those purchases/refunds.)
    If you think you signed up using a different email address, let us know (don't include your email address in the post--just let us know that you used a different one, and I'll send you a private message to get the details).
    Best,

  • How do I find a downloaded podcast subscription that is not showing up in my library?

    I downloaded a podcast subscription and it will not show up in my podcast library in Itunes.  I tried to download it again but it says it is downloaded.  What can I do?

    Is the Podcast in iTunes U, which is a separate section within you iTunes Library? If you cannot see iTunes U on the left hand side, under "Library", click on Edit/Preferences/General>iTunes U (tick "on").
    Did you actually download this programme "as a Podcast" through the iTunes Store or by subscribing to the Podcast feed in Advanced/Subscribe to Podcast? Or did you get it from the show's website?
    Have you checked alternative spellings and even programme titles for the Podcast? (I have one programme, titled "Focus", but which appears under "BBC", who produced it!) Use the Search facilty to check your library.
    If all else fails, what is the title of the Podcast, perhaps that may help us find it?

  • ITunes stops refreshing podcast subscriptions. How do I turn this "feature" off?

    I subscribe to a bunch of podcasts through iTunes. If I don't listen to a podcast from one of my subscriptions in a while, iTunes automatically decides to stop updating the subscription (and I have to manually tell it to resume downloading new podcasts). I want to turn this "feature" off. I'd like it to automatically update all of my podcast subscriptions whether I've listened to a podcast from that subscription recently or not.    

    This is ridiculous to not be able to bypass.  Over the past two years, I have probably had to manually re-subscribe to 500+ podcasts. A total waste of time.

  • Running iTunes 10.5.3.3 - On my device there are podcast headers with no podcasts in them and I cannot seem to delete them. How can I get rid of these empty podcast subscriptions?

    I have a Classic iPod with current software and I am running iTunes 10.5.3.3. On my device there are Podcast subscriptions but all of the podcasts have been deleted from them. Is there a way to get rid of the header (i.e. the Podcast subscription title)?

    This has happened to a number of users lately.  Usually the only way to remove them to restore the iPod to factory settings.
