How to update podcasts?

Hi, I just updated to iTunes 11.1.  Ugh. The interface continues to get worse... but to my question.
So, previously in iTunes, to update my podcasts I would right click on the name of the podcast and click "Update podcast".  iTunes would then update and show me a list of episode titles, and I would then select the ones I wanted to download and download them.
That option is now gone - that is, "Update podcast" doesn't appear when I right click on the podcast name. And I can't find an equivalent action anywhere in the menus.
I don't "subscribe" (because I want to download only select podcasts). So I can't for the life of me figure out how to update my podcasts. 
I've noticed that for a few podcasts I can go to the iTunes store to download the ones I want, but many don't provide a list of the latest episodes, so this isn't an option.  And bsides having to go to the store to do the update is a pain in the ***.
So... any ideas?
Thanks!!!
Elisabeth

Is the lack of answers because there's no solution?

  • "They" changed the Podcast URL address. How 2 update the old address?

    New podcasts weren't downloading.
    I thought it was for all my subscriptions, but it turned out to be just the one. (Or two).
    It took a little while to notice, but it turned out the the podcast providers, a radio station had changed the URL address for the podcast. (Just one word changed).
    *I could not figure out how to update the old podcast subsrciption to the new address.*
    *is it possible?*
    Meanwhile; I subscribed again, which created a new entry under the same name as the old subscription but with the new address, and the podcast downloads for that subscription are running again.

  • ITunes updates podcasts each hour but won't refresh. When I sync my iPhone, it gets yesterdays podcasts and I have to manually hit refresh to make it update. How can I make it automatically refresh?

    iTunes updates podcasts each hour but won't refresh. When I sync my iPhone, it gets yesterdays podcasts and I have to manually hit refresh to make it update. How can I make it automatically refresh?

    I think figured out what is going on here... If you have set your Windows OS time manually, Apple iTunes will not honor the time you set in Windows XP...
    In my case, I had not applied the Windows update that changes the Daylight savings rules. No big deal I thought... I can easily correct the time manually. Well... iTunes will not like it if you do that. You have to have your daylight savings rules set correctly on the PC. Microsoft has a free program called TZEdit that will let you adjust the DST boundaries.
    Once I set the rules correctly and then set my time keeping back to "Automatic" it fixed it. Hope this helps...

  • I can't update podcasts after updating to 11.2

    Widows 7 64bit. When I click the update button, things start normally for about 2 seconds then stalls. After about 3 minutes, I get a Windows message saying iTunes has stopped responding and closes iTunes. If I have task manager open while I try to update, it's obvious there's a memory leak. Memory usage gradually climbs up to about 3GB and then Windows intervenes. I've tried deleting SyncServices and even tried renaming the "Apple Computer" folder. The folder gets recreated but I still can't update podcasts. Ideas?

  • HT1399 Installed ITunes 11.1.0.126 now updating podcasts no longer works correctly.

    I use ITunes for my subscribed podcasts.  The daily podcasts I get comes in three separate podcasts for the whole show and gives me the option to download all shows that I have not downloaded in the past.   Hour 1, 2 & 3 would update when I selected to update podcast for all shows that had not been downloaded in the past.  Now with the ITunes update, ITunes only updates the latest podcast which is hour 3 of the most recent show.  It no longer allows me to get all three hours nor previous shows that I have not downloaded.  I have tried all the various settings and nothing works.  I am not sure why ITunes was made to work less than before, but I don't know how to get it to work properly again like it used to.  If anyone can assist, I would greatly appreciate it.

    I'm having the exact same issue with this version of iTunes.
    I have podcasts dating all the way back to 2006, my library is unmanageable now.
    With a previous unrelated iTunes issue, the "repair" option in the "Add or Remove programs" (under Windows XP) fixed my problem but not this this time.

  • ITunes stops updating podcasts / iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?

    Hi,
    My iTunes is set to automatically update podcasts and keep the last five episodes of each podcast.
    However, iTunes appears to stop updating podcasts after several (five?) unwatched episodes and gives me an exclamation mark in the podcast overview. Clicking on that, I get the message: "iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?"
    This is not what I intend... and not  what I  told iTunes to do... (at least this my reading of the below settings)
    This stopping is rather less then ideal: (1) if I am going away for two weeks, which I often do, I would still like to have the last five days of news, not the last five days of news back from the date I left, (2) I need to click update for approx. 20 podcast on regular basis, (3) my iPhone is synced to iTunes as soon as I come home, if iTunes does not have the podcasts downloaded, they are not copied over to the iPhone, and the iPhone will attempt to download the episodes via 3G next time I play the podcast on the go, (4) I am mainly using iTunes functions, such as smart playlists and podcasts, through another app (Plex, a fullscreen media player) and it is a pain to have to go to iTunes to manually do things. That is why this bothering me...
    How can I get iTunes to behave as intended? (From reading through old posts I know that there is a Doug script adressing this problem, which I have just set up, but I would prefer to use internal settings if possible... maybe I am just missing a setting)
    Thank you for your ideas!

    Thank you for the response, Roger!
    OK, that's how it is then.
    The iTunes podcasts settings should be reworded in that case because it suggest something different from what it does. And, of course, it would be ideal for Apple to make this more flexible and allow users to set up their podcast downloads in their way and not be so motherly (c'mon, Apple, your users are not as dumb as you think, and they have uncapped Internet connections these days anyway)...
    Btw., for anyone interested, this is external script I am using now:
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=updateexpiredpodcasts
    Including the "cron job" setup here:
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/2011/12/updated-update-expired-podcasts-v2-2-and-l aunchd-project/
    Cannot tell how well it works because I have just set it up, other members of the forum say it works for them...
    If anyone knows of in-app solutions, please share...

  • Manually updating podcasts in 7

    I may be missing something but I can't find how to manually update podcasts in 7.

    This doesn't work for me. I manually add podcasts (i hate syncing) but they do not appear under the "music" or the "podcasts" icon. They used to appear, along with music, under my ipod icon in itunes6. This served as the ipod's library and i could manage everything from there.
    If I manually add podcast to my ipod icon (I can't to the podcast or music icon) it disappears into the ether. The podcast is transfered to my ipod but I can't find it through itunes. If I add it to say a "podcast" playlist i can access it there, but deleting it from the playlist does not delete it from the library.
    I am at a loss as to how to find these files with itunes7 as I usually do delete them after listening to them. Unless I go back to itunes6 i'm going to end up with a lot of garbage on my ipod i can't easily delete.
    If anyone has a clue to this I'd love to hear it.

  • How eliminate 'duplicate' podcasts ?

    How eliminate 'duplicate' podcasts from my lists?  Somehow a lot of the podcasts I've subscribed to have within them duplicates of each podcast issue.  I can go thru and select each duplicate and then trash, but isn't there an easier way?  There's a lot of them.
    And i'm surprised iTunes didn't alert me that this might happen.  Like when I'm downloading photos I'm always alerted that I already have that and do i wish to replace the current one, or not make duplicates.
    I believe the problem started thusly:  Some of the podcasts I've subscribed to suddenly stopped arriving with new issues (or whatever you call each weekly episode, or whatever).  And I know that those podcasts are still active and issuing new ones weekly so I don't know why I wasn't getting the weekly updates.  So in my ignorance I went to the iTunes Store and subscribed again to the same.  I thought that would get me back on track.  I trusted that it would alert me and not send me duplicates.  But it did.
    So I guess I have 2 questions.  1) How to eliminate the duplicates easily?  That's the main Question. I'd be satisfied with the answer to that.
       and 2)  What do I do when I suddenly stop getting updated episodes of podcasts I know are active and issuing updates I'm not getting.
    Thanks very much for your help.  I will gratefully award the helpiest answers.

    i have the same problem.  surprised no one has offered you a solution yet.

  • I need to know .. How many arabic podcasts on iTunes?

    I need to know .. How many arabic podcasts on iTunes?

    Problem with implementing that logic in a calculated column is that the value only updates when the row is modified. What you might want to do is have the logic to update the value based on your calculation as part of a timer job, that runs and updates the
    value on a schedule asynchronously in the list for existing items. Sorry the solution isn't OOTB but a better way to do this.

  • How to update ADF VO object to refresh the data in ADF Pivot table

    I need to know how to update the View object so that the date in pivot table is refreshed/updated/filtered.
    here are the steps I performed to create ADF pivot table application using VO at design time.
    1) created a collection in a Data Control (ViewObject in an ApplicationModule) that provides the values I wanted to use for row and column labels as well the cell values (Used the SQL query)
    2) Dragged this collection to the page in which wanted to create the pivot table
    3) In the pivot table data binding editor specified the characteristics of the rows (which attribute(s) should be displayed in header), the columns (likewise) and the cells.
    Now, I have a requirement to update/filter the data in pivot table on click of check box and my question is how to I update the View object so that the date in pivot table is refreshed/updated/filtered.
    I have got this solution from one of the contact in which a WHERE clause on an underlying VO is updated based upon input from a Slider control. In essence, the value of the control is sent to a backing bean, and then the backing bean uses this input to call the "filterVO" method on the corresponding AppModule:
    but, I'm getting "operationBinding" object as NULL in following code. Please let me know what's wrong.
    here is the code
    Our slider component will look like
    <af:selectBooleanCheckbox label="Unit" value="#{PivotTableBean.dataValue}"
    autoSubmit="true" />
    The setDataValue() method in the backing bean will get a handle to AM and will execute the "filterVO" method in that, which takes the NumberRange as the input parameter.
    public void setDataValue(boolean value) {
    DataValue = value;
    BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
    OperationBinding operationBinding = (OperationBinding)bindings.getOperationBinding("filterVO");
    Object result = operationBinding.execute();
    The filterVO method in the AMImpl.java will get the true or false and set the where Clause for the VO query to show values.
    public void filterVO(boolean value) {
    if (value != null) {
    ViewObjectImpl ibVO = getVO1();
    ibVO.setWhereClause("PRODUCT_TOTAL_REVENUE(+) where rownum < 10");
    ibVO.executeQuery();
    }

    Did you define a filterVO action in your pagedef.xml file?

    I have downloaded the latest pages update on my iPad, but my iMac still has Pages version 4.3, and I cannot find out how to update it on my desktop. When I try to send something from my iPad pages via email to be opened on my desktop in Pages, it won't open in Pages. I get a message that it can't be opened because the version is too old. I sent the document as a PDF and it worked. But I want to be able to use Pages back and forth. HOw do I update the Pages version on my desktop iMac?

    The file format used by the iOS versions of the iWork apps can only be read by the new iWork apps on your Mac - i.e. Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. Those versions for the Mac require Mavericks, OS X 10.9. The "too old" error on a Mac comes if you are trying to open an iWork '08 or earlier file in the newest apps. If you do have the newest apps you can open the files from your iPad.
    If you can't or don't want to upgrade to Mavericks & the newest iWork apps your best option would be to export/share the files from the iPad to a type an older version of iWork can read such as Word, text, Excel, etc.
    Or contact AppleCare. They made this mess, let them fix it.
