I can't publish my podcast to iTunes

I've shortened my previously long url to http://web.mac.com/rimmerpaula/iWeb/Jim%20Rimmer/Podcast/Podcast.html plus I've removed an illegal apostrophe
I have another address that forwards to the above url & it is www.jims-jaunts.co.uk
My actual short url (at .mac) is: http://web.mac.com/rimmerpaula
My site now seems to be working well (I had a few issues earlier!)
I would now like to publish my podcast to iTunes, but have received the following error message;
bad http result code 404;
The rss address (is that the right term!?) that iTunes automatically puts in the box is the older dodgy url;
http://rss.mac.com/rimmerpaula/iWeb/Jim%27s%20jaunts%3A%20the%20musings%20and%20 misadventures%20of%20an%20extremely%20long%20legged%20jack%20russell%20from%20Wa les/Podcast/rss.xml
I tried changing the middle bit to the new shorter address, but same error message.
Any clever/obvious ideas out there?
Thanks,
Paula

Good lord! Good job on shortening your URL...
The new address for your Podcast is as follows...
http://rss.mac.com/rimmerpaula/iWeb/Jim%20Rimmer/Podcast/rss.xml
And for your Blog...
http://rss.mac.com/rimmerpaula/iWeb/Jim%20Rimmer/Blog/rss.xml
You'll have to submit the new URL to the ITMS again here...

I have been trying to publish my podcast to iTunes with no success – I keep getting the following error message

I have been trying to publish my podcast to iTunes with no success – I keep getting the following error message
We could not complete your iTunes store request. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later.
New to all this and would really appreciate some help.
Thanks in advance
PS: I should say that I have an ITunes account - I have full permissions over the website etc. I am using Powerpress plug in on a wordpress site.

My guess would be that you've fallen over a glitch in the Store, in which case all you can do is wait a bit and try again, but it is only a guess. Without being able to look at your feed it's not possible to say whether there might be a problem there.

How can I remove a podcast from iTunes if iTunes is locked up.

I added a password protected podcast and iTunes locks up on the authentication dialog. Spinning beachball... only thing I can do is force quit.
Earlier solution was to go in and manually disable podcasts with Xcode. but then i can't play any of my podcasts.
The recent itunes update fixed the problem, sort of. it allowed me to use itunes normally again. But, I tried to subscribe to the podcast agin and... yup, same thing.
How can I remove that podcast from iTunes without using iTunes to remove it?
HELP!!!!

ROGER, I AM SORRY I DIDN'T GIVE YOU THE 10 POINT RATING. I DIDN'T REALIZE IT MADE A DIFFERENCE AND THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS NOT WITH YOUR RESPONSE, WHICH WAS RIGHT ON, BUT WITH THE WAY THE SYSTEM WORKS.
REGARDS, JEANNE

How can I see my podcast in itunes when I download directly from my iphone Podcast App

How can I manage my podcast via itunes?
I am sure that it is so simple that I don´t know how itunes work.
Thank

Delete the app from your device. Restart your device once or twice. After that, the device will realize you want to manage your podcasts using iTunes and will let you manage them from iTunes again.

IWeb has published my Podcast - but iTunes doesn't show the updated feed

I created three new Podcast episodes today, which all work fine and are published to .Mac like a dream...
The first one was picked up by iTunes and downloaded as I've subscribed to my own feed. As you do. The last two are not showing on iTunes at all...
In fact I realised on closer inspection that only five of the twelve Podcasts are in iTunes. Any ideas why?
Interestingly, the iWed icon in the application bar has "2" in a red circle in a "you've got two waiting to be published" kinda way. But all the pages are blue and I have published all pages to .Mac. Honest.
I'm no RSS geek, so any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Anthony,
Nice post! Although you do not need to wait for iTunes to check your updated feed. For a quicker response you can ping iTunes to read your rss feed. Simply enter this URL into your address bar:
https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast?feedURL=http://YourRSSFeedFileURL.xml
Bookmark the URL and use it whenever you want to update your podcast on iTunes.

OP,
The red icon with numbers in the iWeb icon on your dock means you have new comments added to your site. The number represents how many new comments there are.

Can't submit feedburner podcast to itunes

Hello,
I have created a feedburner podcast to submit to Apple.
The podcast can be subscribed and downloaded manually in iTunes. However, there is a time out issue when trying to submit the podcast to iTunes. I have trie to submit this podcast to Apple from mid December 2013 with no success.
The podcast URL is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/MHPN
Our developer claims there is no issue with the server and all functions normally when accessing the podcast in a browser.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?
Attached is a screen grab of the error message in iTunes.
Thanks

Some of your URLs - for example for 2 October - have spaces in them:
<enclosure url="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/MHPN/~5/kiQgeVJzvZ0/MHPN_2_OCT_1800 - audio.mp3" length="86234627" type="application/octet-stream" />
Spaces are not allowed in the URL and iTunes cannot see any files which have them in the URL. You top episode is OK, but that episode and any others with spaces won't download.
The feed itself is OK (though a bit of a mess) and can be subscribed to manually in iTunes. I don't know whether it's the spaces which are causing the problem - there isn't usually any difficulty with Feedburner feeds themselves - but it's your first thing to fix. Once fixed, post here if you still have any problems.

Can i publish my ebooks on itunes u?

Hi, i got this issue or question, can i publish an ebook to the NEWSTAND of ipad and in iTunes U? or just this ebook goes to ibookstore???

To the best of my knowledge, none of the tools for iTunes U are platform-specific. The information on this page, particularly the guides linked from the bottom, should help:

Why can't I delete podcasts in iTunes 11.1?

Seems as Apple has erroneously taken a function away in iTunes 11.1, I can't delete old podcasts, they stay in my view - and there are zillions, so Podcast selection in iTunes and Apple TV is a mess
Apparenlty this is a bug?

Unbeleivable!
Everyone needs to band together on this and send the meanest-spirited complaint to Apple via the "Provide iTunes Feedback" option (dropdown from the iTunes menu, found just under thr Preferences option). If you have such uncharitable words to say here the Moderator just deletes it. If there was some way to start a petition I'd do it. Intensionally hobbling programs and calling it an upgrade is the dumbest thing Apple can possibly do. Reminds me of a Dilbert episode.

Can't stream my podcast in iTunes

I create my first podcast in iTunes.
Yesterday I added first episode. Now I can download and listen it from iOS app and from iTunes, but I can't stream it from iTunes when I click on a "play" button.
What is the problem it can be?
My Podcast link in iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/ru/podcast/podkast-jusnotiz/id770263884?mt=2
And my feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/jusnotiz

The link in the feed is correct, because otherwise it woudn't be possible to download the file on subscribing or from the feed in a browser. This URL is correct:
http://www.jusnotiz.com/podcast/podcast1.m4a
- what you quote as the current link is wrong anyway. If you change the URL without changing the path on the server it will stop working.
I was suggesting making an mp3 version and using that instead, which would involve uploading it to the server and changing the feed to match, just to see whether the server will deilver that to the Store.

How can I sync a podcast in iTunes to Podcasts app, but not Music app

When I first got the podcast app I had three podcasts set to sync to my iPhone. Two were podcasts I'm subscribed to via iTunes Music Store and one is a podcast downloaded from a website as individual files (I changed the type to Podcast). The first time I lauched the Podcasts app all of them were there and I was happy. Even though they were now in my Podcasts app I subscribed to them from the app (except for the one that I didn't get from iTunes) I then turned off podcast syncing in iTunes so it wouldn't sync podcasts to both my Music app and my Podcasts app. Maybe this wasn't necessary but I didn't want duplicates and I found nothing online telling me if syncing would result in two copies or not so I chose to turn it off.
Now I've listened to all of the episodes of the one I downloaded from a website and I want to put more, newer episodes of it on my iPhone. However, I can't figure out how to get them from iTunes to the Podcasts app. The only thing I can think of would be to turn on syncing again but as mentioned above, I'd like to leave syncing off.
Any help appreciated.

Unfortunately since the Podcast App is not part of iTunes, you cannot sycn from iTunes. You have to subscribe to the podcast from inside the Podcast App.
Do this by clicking on the gear in the top right hand corner. Then turn "Subscription" on. While you're here decide with order you want to sort them, oldest or newest first. Be aware that, to my knowledge, your IOS device must be awake to download the podcasts you subscribe to.
To delete podcasts you've listened to, simply swipe from right to left on the podcast and tap on the delete button when it appears. This is done by individually, just like in Mail. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be a way to select multiple episodes to delete at once.

How can I copy a podcast from iTunes to a SBU stick to use in my car radio?

Before latest update of iTunes, I have always been able to copy a podcast downloaded to iTunes , into a USB stick for my car radio. I can't see how to do that anymore.
I have no similar problems with my iPhone and my iPad.
By the way. Is it possibly to play from iPhone or iPad into the car radio ?
With cable, BlueTooth or a third possibility???
Can anyone help me.
regards
Ebbe

Copy the file from iTunes or from Windows Explorer to the USB drive.
Nothing special and in no way involves or requires iTunes.

That depends entirely on the head unit in the vehicle and what it supports. Check the Owner's Manual for the vehicle or the head unit (if aftermarket).

I can't see some podcasts from iTunes to delete them!

I just got my "5G+" iPod yesterday. All the podcasts that were in iTunes copied over fine. However, podcasts I had copied out of iTunes (because I didn’t have an iPod for a while) and then dragged back on to the iPod don’t show up in the iPod’s Podcast menu-you have to select Podcast as a genre.
That’s not too big of a deal, as in the future I won’t be copying anything out of iTunes prior to transferring it to my iPod.
The REAL problem is that now iTunes can’t see those “rogue” podcasts on my iPod! They don’t show up under “Podcasts”, and they don’t show up under “Music”!
As near as I can tell, I have no way to delete those podcasts from my iPod!
Any suggestions?

iMeowbot on Macrumors came up with a great way to at least SEE the 'rogue' Podcasts-create a smart playlist and set Podcast = true.
Unfortunatly, you can't delete items from a smart playlist, so I still can't get rid of the 'rogue' podcasts.
For now I'm planning on listening to the rest of the podcasts on my iPod, and then doing a wipe and starting over with it, as there dosen't seem to be any alternative.
I'm pretty surprised to see a bug this major in Apple software!

Can't download certain podcasts in iTunes app... any ideas why not?

Hi all,
For the most part, I have no problem finding podcasts in the iTunes app on my iPad, and downloading podcasts directly. However, a handful of podcasts refuse to let me do so, and I can't figure out why. I tap on the "free" icon, and nothing happens... it doesn't change to "download" or anything.
Can someone else verify this, and maybe have an idea what the problem is? Thanks!
A couple of the trouble podcasts:
The Narrow Path Daily Radio Program
Grace to You: Radio Broadcast
-Ryan Satterfield

I am having the exact same issue except I am using Win 8.1 64 bit. Same symptoms as you described, except if I close iTunes with CD in drive and reopen, it recognizes the CD. If I eject CD and insert another one it is not recognized. I have tried all the diagnostics on Apple support site and nothing has worked. All pc divers current and optical drive is working normally.

I can not find the podcast on itunes?

We resibmitted this same aproved podcast to upload an image over a week ago but still no response, any way to follow up?
This is our link but can't find it on iTunes. Has
it been removed if so why is this link still available?
feed://blog.cherrybombkillerperfume.com/podcasts-only/rss2.aspx

If your podcast has been submitted and approved you don't need to submit it again when you make a change, you just reupload the feed - that's all you need to do.
However your image URL is not valid because it has a space in it: spaces are not allowed in a URL and you need to remove them or replace them with a hyphen or underscore.
Your media file also has spaces in the filename, but here the feed has correctly substituted the code %20 for each space so it works: however you should stop putting spaces in your filenames, it's asking for trouble.
Other than the image URL the feed is OK. I can't find it by searching on the title - you say it was approved: you should have received an email giving you the URL of the Store page: do you have this and does it produce any result? Are you sure it has actually been approved? - this can take several weeks and I see your first episode is dated only a week ago.
