I can't find my RSS feeds

Hi all,
I recently got a MBP and using time machine, I switched my profile from my iMac 21.5 to the new system. It changed my username to "username1".
The first thing I noticed was that my RSS feeds were missing as the new iMail does not support RSS feeds. No problem, it's easy to locate the RSS file-at least I thought so.
I went into Time Machine, into the backup, went to this directory: /users/*username*/library/mail/v2/RSS- only to find that it doesn't exist and that all files under my old username are locked out.
So I guess I have two questions.
1: How do I get my old RSS feeds so I don't have to go through that process of subscribing all over again?
2: Do I have to change my username back to my old one? If so, how do I go about doing this without affecting any of my files/protect the files I've already created on my new MBP?
Gah!
Thanks so much for the help!

I just came across this link and am very happy to find it! http://www.macgasm.net/2012/07/30/tip-find-your-deleted-rss-feeds-in-mountain-li ons-mail-app/ It provides the code so you can at least get your list of feeds back if you used Mail for your RSS feed reader.
My question now is; what should I use instead of Mail as my feed reader? I don't know what programs actually do this.

How can I get my RSS feeds to show up on my iOS devices from iCloud?

How can I get my RSS feeds to show up on my iOS devices from iCloud? The RSS feeds now show up just fine on my iMac.
On my iMac the appear in a category at the same level as In Box, Sent, etc. However the term RSS is in lighter grey like Mailboxes, On My Mac, Reminders. I use Snow Leopard 10.7.5. Any help will be appreciated as I'd like to read the feeds on my iPad 2 and iPhone 5 when I'm away from home.
Thank you.

This is helpful, but how do you get both devices to communicate to this single calendar via the iCloud?...
You did not mention that it must be through iCloud. But then, it can't really do so if you want to maintain separate Apple IDs.
So you just set up an additional calendar on your devices.
iPads, iPhone, Macs can show multiple calendars simultaneously. I have my work calendar and several personal calendars all showing simultaneously on my iPad, Mac Mini and Macbook Pro. In the case of my client, they didn't need multiple calendars. They just were going to use the one shared calendar. But I did setup the shared Google calendar and separate personal caldendars on their iPhones. (e.g.: Husband's iPhone = husband's personal Mac Cal + shared Google Calendar. Wife's iPhone = wife's personal Outlook for Windows Cal + shared Google Calendar.)

Can you add an RSS feed on an iweb blog that would allow visitors to receive new entries by email?

Can you add an RSS feed on an iweb blog that would allow visitors to receive new blog entries through their email?

RSS feeds don't do that - if they add the feed to an RSS reader (including Safari or FireFox) they will see new updates every time they check: but sending them emails on each added episode would require extra programming in the actual program, which iWeb doesn't provide. You would need to have a mailing list and send out an email manually each time you add an episode.

I cannot find the list of RSS feeds so I can delete one. I import into Outlook where I deleted the feed, but can't reload the RSS feed.

When I use Explorer, there is a place that lists all my RSS feeds which I can delete, open, etc.. I cannot find a similar location on FireFox.
There is a RSS feed that I am having problems downloading to my Outlook and I would like to delete the feed & reload. (I have deleted from my Outlook.).
Any suggestions on where I can find a list of my RSS feeds?

Firefox doesn't keep a special list of RSS feed items.<br />
Those are treated like all other bookmarks and are managed in the Bookmarks Manager (Library).
* Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks
IE stores each favorite as a separate folder on the hard drive and probably needs a special handling for its feed items, but Firefox stores the bookmarks and history in one database file places.sqlite.
So if you haven't placed all RSS feed items in one bookmarks folder or have otherwise tagged them then it will be difficult to locate them all.

How Can I delete an RSS Feed in iTunes/podcasts?

I have an old rss feed that I want deleted in itunes. I have created a new rss feed and it's up and working great. I want the old one deleted.
I have used "Report a Concern" and asked itunes to delete the old feed, but nothing has happened. so I went to the files and renamed them all and re-pinged the page so itunes would realize that the feed no longer works, but that hasn't work either. I've searched the forum but can't seem to find out how to have itunes delete the old podcast feed.
Any ideas?
I realize that I should have done this a different way, but I didn't know that then... I do now.

Just to confirm that you originally had a podcast accepted in the iTunes Store, and now you have had a second version accepted with a different Store URL? The procedure you have followed is the correct one, though I don't know how long it's likely to take the Store staff to get round to removing it. Just remove the original feed from the server: it will still show in the Store, which has cached it, but obviously subscribing won't work, and the absence of the feed may encourage the Store staff to remove the Store page.

RSS - can't load any RSS feed

I use RSS daily. This afternoon it stopped working. My feeds stopped getting updated, and then I realized I cannot load any RSS feed in Safari.
If for example I try:feed://www.apple.com/main/rss/hotnews/hotnews.rss, I just see a blank safari window, and at the bottom it says... "contacting www.apple.com". It never times out with an error message. It just doesn't seem to be able to get the feed. This is true for all of my feeds, and any new ones I try to view.
RSS works normally in other accounts on my computer, so the problem is local to my account.
I have seen others post here with similar problems, but I can't find any answers for my issue. Anyone have any suggestions?

OK, Looks like I solved my problem. I am posting what I did here in case it helps anyone else with the same problem.
Over at Mac OSX Hints, I found the following post: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20070916123611119
-x- snip -x-
+"I have experienced this problem several times in the past few years, both on a G4 PowerBook and Intel iMac. For no reason, Safari will stop updating my RSS feed counts in the Bookmarks bar. RSS still functions and will update whenever a particular feed is selected, but the parenthetical numbers for each feed or folder do not change.+
+The fix is simple and doesn't hurt any of your RSS subscriptions. Just quit Safari, remove the Database3 file located in ~/Library » Syndication, and then launch Safari again. I move mine to the Desktop and trash it only after I've successfully restarted Safari and confirmed the problem is fixed. Safari will create a new file in its place.+
+Easy enough, but I've never seen it anywhere else online, and have forgotten it myself a few times."+
-x- snip -x-
So I followed this and moved the database3 file out of the ->Library->Syndication folder, restarted Safari, and now RSS seems to be working normally.
By the way, instead of deleting the database3 file,I just moved it to the desktop, until I can confirm that everything is working correctly, and I will delete it later.
Hope this is of some help to you if you are having similar RSS problems in Safari.

HELP?!? - Trying to find an RSS feed URL

In the latest update of iTunes the Podcast page has been reworked, and you can no longer find the little "i" icon that used to tell you about the Podcast, and it would display the URL of the RSS feed.
Anyone know how to find a podcast URL feed now that the icon is missing in the new iTunes???
Any help would be great. I just want to look at some of the feeds I like to see how their code compares to mine for accuracy.
Thanks!

Scratch the above....it was answered elsewhere, thx

Should I / Can I delete a RSS Feed?

After upgrading to OS 10.5 I noticed that my Apple mail program now has a RSS Feed from Apple.
I never had this before with OS 10.4.
I went to right click on this item to delete it. But I received a warning that this operation cannot be undone. I am not interested in this RSS feed, but I do not fully understand what is meant by "this option cannot be undone."
What if I decide later that I do want this RSS feed again? I don't want it now, but I like to keep my options open for the future.

"This option cannot be undone" just means that any news articles that had been downloaded will be deleted as well. Of course, you can always add the feed later if you want, but you will have to do so manually, i.e. you'll have to find the address of the feed yourself.

Where can I find the RSS icon in Firefox 4.0?

After upgrading to Firefox 4.0 I become unable to find the RSS icon for pages have RSS links. In Firefox 3.6, the RSS icon was located on the right end of the address bar (near the star). Where is the RSS icon located in Firefox 4.0?
Thanks.

The RSS button has been removed from the location bar. Instead there is a toolbar button that you can add, for details of how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar - the RSS button is named "Subscribe" in the customize toolbar window.
The RSS button is greyscale, if you prefer to add an RSS icon to the location bar similar to Firefox 3.6, you can use the RSS Icon extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/rss-icon

Now i wanna embed the option of rss feed in my website, but it is made in Flash. I have already the code in html for this, it would be like this:
   <a type="application/rss+xml" href="nombre de tu canal RSS.xml">
<img src="imagen que quieres que sirva de enlace.gif">
   </a>
But I don't know how to "translate" this code into an actionscript....can anybody help me please!!!???
Thak u for reading

normally, an rss feed is loaded from another domain. it looks like you've copied an rss feed and saved it as a local file.
if you want to use as2 to load a local xml file, use the xml class. if you want to load the cross-domain rss feed, use the loadvars class to load the return from a server-side script (eg, php) that loads the cross-domain rss feed.

HT1819 Can I update podcast RSS feed without deleting current location?

I have changed where my podcast are hosted so I am trying to figure what I need to do on iTunes. Can the RSS feed be updated or do I have to start a brand new podcast?

If you don't have access to the old feed to add the redirection tag to it you can't redirect iTunes yourself. Email Support at podcasts 'at' apple.com and ask them to do it for you - give them the Store URL and the URLs of both feeds.

How can i add an rss feed to mac mail?

I am trying to unclog my email and cancel many of the news related emails I get each day. I would like to figure out the best way to still get news sent to me (without having to always remember to check 6-7 websites). I used to use RSS feeds into my email program (was using outlook). I cannot figure out how to add an rss feed to show up in mac mail as an email folder on the left hand side of the screen under the mailboxes.
Thanks.

That functionality is not to be found in Apple Mail for Safari. Your best bet is the brilliant free RSS reader Vienna. Works very well, highly recommended.

How can I create an RSS feed from my Azure Storage Blob?

I'm a Tech Evangelist at Microsoft, based out of Philadelphia. I also have a podcast,
http://indiedevpodcast.wordpress.com/, and was previously hosting my show on PodOmatic.
I made the switch to Azure blog storage today, and I'm able to get the content there:
https://indiedevpodcast.blob.core.windows.net/podcasts/Ep%2016%20Wimbus%20Studios.mp3/
The issue though, is how do I generate an RSS feed from my podcasts in Azure blog storage? It says "file not found", but it opens up Window Media Player and plays the file for me.
*shrug*
Is this what I'm looking for? http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-dotnet-how-to-use-blobs/
