I can't subscribe or download a podcast?

I'm trying to download a podcast and it appears that I can't download ANY podcast.  They are not highlighted and when I click on them nothing happens?  I tried on my iPhone and bingo, I can download, but not on my computer?  Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

I sent an email to Apple last night.  I will let you know if they ever respond.  I also posted on another website and again, I will let you know if I get any help with this. 
One post I did see said that that it was a problem with permissions on their hard drive and iTunes?  But not enough for me to figure it out.
Glad I'm not alone on this one.

    give me the answer via email.
    thank you

    iTunes does not provide this information. Their documentation suggests a couple of things you may be able to do:

    No-one is going to answer you by email - this is a forum - and if you ever feel tempted to include your email address you shouldn't as it's an invitation to spam.

  • How can I subscribe to a free podcast from a different country's i-store?

    How can I subscribe to a free podcast from a different country's i-store? I tried, but it says I can use only store in the country of residence. I just bought imac to be able to watch podcasts from my home country which is not country of residence... It is completely unreasonable!

    You cannot.
    As it has told you, you can use the itunes store of your country of residence and only while you are inside the borders of that country.
    Sorry.

  • HT3281 I don't see the Download link in the Podcasts app. I can't seem to download any podcasts. Grrr. Very frustrating. Anyone have any suggestions?

    I am trying to download NPR podcasts using the podcasts app. I just get a message can't do it. The suggestion is to click n downloads and remove anything from there. But there is no download area that I can see. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work?

    I found a solution. Anyone else encountering this, please see the Centos page for this:

  • How can I stop iTunes downloading every podcast from the cloud when I only want unplayed podcasts to show in iTunes?

    When I set iTunes to automatically download all new episodes and only keep unplayed episodes, it downloads every episode in every one of my podcasts feeds. This means thousands of files, as not every XML feed hosts only a few files. Some host hundreds.
    How can I get rid of all these podcasts that I don't want to display? The old way was a superior user experience to the way it is now.

    My workaround for this is to set up a smart playlist. I hope this is another one of the issues that gets cleard up when Apple eventually releases an 11.1.1 update.

  • Podcast can be accessed in app, subscribed to, downloaded, but won't play in Itunes when clicking the "arrow" to play.

    Trying to help a friend with a podcast.  It can be subscribed to, downloaded, accessed on a mobile device on the podcast app, but when I go to click the "play arrow" in iTunes it just spins its wheels.
    The page in Itunes is here:  https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/smokey-college-football-picks/id918319795?mt =2
    The RSS/XML feed is here:  http://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/smokeybandit/Smokey_College_Football_Picks_wit h_the_Bandit.xml
    The podcast files are hosted on amazon web services.
    Any ideas why this won't play?

    The media file URL of your top episode is
    http://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/smokeybandit/20140917+180949.m4a
    If you enter the URL of a media file for podcasting in the address bar of Safari or another browser, it should play directly in the browser. However your file is set so that it downloads instead of playing. When subscribing this isn't a problem because iTunes downloads the file anyway; but the Store plays the file directly in the Store page, just as a browser does when it's correctly set. If you have the file set to force a download then the Store can't play it directly.
    So you need to go into your Amazon settings and set each file not to download. Then it should all work.

  • Downloading iWeb podcasts without "Subscribe" button?

    My "enhanced" podcast (photos & audio) in an iWeb podcast page runs fine in a QT window. But what if I don't want a "Subscribe" button on my page or my podcast published on the iTunes Store?
    ...How can a visitor simply download the podcast (right now) to put in iTunes on their computer and perhaps then onto an iPod?
    Control-clicking on the QT window gives the option of "Save as QuickTime Movie" only if the visitor has QT Pro. But is there a way for a visitor to download/save the m4a/m4b file as a podcast from my iWeb Podcast page?
    (Perhaps I'm missing something really simple here.)
    Thanks.

    A workaround for non QuickTime Pro owners.
    Archive the file (Finder will add .zip to its name) and then use the "Link to File" option of iWeb.
    A .zip file will always download and open (expand) with a double click.
    Drawback is that now two files must upload which wastes bandwidth and server space.

  • HT1689 I subscribe to my video podcasts but some of them either has a small red E next to them and won't download new content or some just doesn't download new content. I have been watching the Rachael Maddow video podcast for at least a month with no pro

    I subscribe to my video podcasts but some of them either has a small red E next to them and won't download new content or some just doesn't download new content. I have been watching the Rachael Maddow video podcast for at least a month with no problems. Now suddenly it won't download the last nights show. I have read and followed all troubleshoot and cannot find a solution. I have unsubscribed and re-subscribed to no avail. Can someone help me with this problem?

    And now that my contract has expired, I have some options.  Last weekend, I called Verizon again threatening to leave.  The representative offered the same $75 rebate that was offered to me 6 months earlier.  I even offered up one of my device upgrades in place of a network extender, but that deal was knocked down.  And so now I’m left with the option to make a public spectacle out of this scenario and hope Verizon takes notice.  Failing that, I’ll be forced to leave Verizon behind.
    I don't understand. If having service in your home IS important to you and you already know Verizon's policy, why have you not instead started to search for carriers which cover your home? It seems a pretty easy decision to me, at least.

  • Can I subscribe to a podcast directly on my apple tv

    I am currently using my imac to subscribe to podcasts and then syncing to apple tv but this obviously means i need the computer on. Is there any way to do this on the apple tv directly? Sorry if this is a no brainer...

    you can view them direct on the appletv (streaming them), or you can download individual episodes. but you can't subscribe to a podcast on the appletv.

  • Cannot download or subscribe to any new podcasts

    I have recently upgraded to an iPhone 5, and now cannot download or subscribe to any new podcasts from the app on the phone.
    I can only download new episodes of podcasts I was already subscribed to on my old iPhone, all others have both the subscribe and download buttons greyed out.

    Im having the same prop, I talked with apple and the guy i talked to couldnt figure it out, his manager is supposed to call. What I am finding out is that its not the computer or itunes itself (well it could be itunes), its actually something with the itunes account is what i am geussing

  • I can't subscribe to a podcast I used to follow using my Podcast app (v2.2) on iPhone 4S

    I've been following some podcast on iTunes Store for a while but have not been able to listen to all new episodes. The podcast has stopped downloading new contents since then. Recently, I want to re-subscribe that podcast and get automatic download. However, when I tried to subscribe to that podcast on my iPhone, my Podcast app won't work. I hit the subscribe button but the podcast still couldn't be added to my subscription list. If I download any episode of the podcast, a message will appear saying that it's unable to download.
    That podcast still works well on iTunes. I can still subscribe and unsubscribe  and download new episodes and sync them to my iPhone.
    I'm using an iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2, Podcast app v2.2.
    Is there anyone here having the same issue? How do you fix it?

    I tested this by using my two computers...
    Are both computers connected to the Internet by the same router?
    iTunes uses ports 80, 443 and 8080.
    Could one of the ports be a blocked by a firewall or network blocking software?
    What happens if you (temporary) turn off your firewall?

  • Can't download free podcast?!

    i'm new to this podcast thing and i've been trying to download a podcast recently, and i can't. It says the podcast is free but it won't allow me to click on the get episode icon. what can i do???

    couldn't subscribe to oprah/tolle or get free episodes
    subscribe and get episodes were dimmed
    deleted and unsubscribed to all of my existing podcasts
    quit itunes, and when it returned, subscribe and get episodes were no longer dimmed
    this was probably overkill, but it worked

  • HT1689 Do I have to subscribe to all my podcasts on my iPhone or will they download from my computer and if so, why aren't they? I have iMatch too!

    Do I have to subscribe to all my podcasts (previously subscribed on computer) on my iPhone or will they download through iMatch?

    You can re-download them for free.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.

  • I attempted to download a podcast but it was corrupt and only a fraction downloaded. It won't download and I can't delete. How do I get it off my itouch?

    I attempted to download a podcast but it was corrupt. Only a fraction downloaded and I can't download nor delete. Any ideas as to how to delete?

    If a Podcast has only partially downloaded, then you need to delete that partial download before iTunes will "allow you" to begin a fresh download of that same file.
    Have a look in your iTunes Media folder for the Download folder. On my Windows 7 for instance, it's Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Downloads. In that folder, there should be a sub-folder with the name of that podcast which has the partial download in it. Delete the named podcast folder, but not the Download folder.
    You should then be able to start a fresh download (if you still want it!).
