I podcast artwork is not showing up for my show "Leaders in the Trenches"

I got accepted about a week ago, March 3rd, 2014. It is frustrating that my podcast is not published yet with the right artwork.
The size for the file is 1400x1400 and 34kb.
Here is the page: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/leaders-in-trenches-podcast/id833122474 Also my summary is not being posted either correctly.
>>>Wondering if I need to move away from Feedburner and go directly using Lybsyn. Can anyone help me?
Gene
PS.
I recently updated my XML file using feedburner "SmartCast".
Here is the file:

The image is correctly referenced in the feed, and there is a file at that address. It's not unusual for it to take several days after a podcast first appears in the Store before the image appears, so it's just a matter of waiting.

My podcast artwork is not showing up... please help!

Hi there. I have submitted my podcast to iTunes and received the email almost a week ago that it was accepted. It is showing up in iTunes, but the artwork is not showing up and I have no clue what to do to make it show up properly.
Here is my xml feed link:
http://www.pastor2youth.com/videos/Fearfully_and_Wonderfully_Made.xml
I would GREATLY appreciate any help that anyone could give me on this as I have exhausted everything I know to do to try and get the artwork to show up.
Thanks!!!

My podcast artwork is not showing in the iTunes store or in the Podcasts app

My podcast, the Legal Seagull, was recently posted to iTunes. The problem is that the artwork is not showing in the iTunes store or on the iPhone's Podcasts app. Once you actually download the episodes, the image does appear.
I verified that my image is 1400 X 1400; however, it does appear to be around 700kb. I have seen some posts about how you should try to keep it under 500kb, but I haven't seen anything official from Apple to that effect.
I note that there is a man out there called Roger Wilmut, who is extremely knowledgable about this issue and has responded to many similar questions. Mr. Wilmut, if you are out there, could you please advise whether my feed is set up correctly? If it is just a waiting process, I'm fine with that- I just want to make sure that I've set everything correctly on my end.
Feed: http://www.thelegalseagull.com/feed/podcast

Thanks!

OK, looks like the problem has resolved! All it took was a few days of waiting patiently

Podcast artwork does not show in ITunes store

I recently began producing a music podcast http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/felony-buddha/id375837423.
I am using blogger http://www.felonybuddha.com and feedburner http://www.felonybuddha.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss.
Initially I did not have the artwork url in SmartCast but I updated Smartcast
on 06/04/2010 with this url http://4.bp.blogspot.com/PuXcBmmd7sY/TAmrnudmrHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/W8kCV6S3N2U/s1600/iStock000010405007XSmall.jpg. I sent a Ping but the podcast artwork still does not show in Itunes store.
What am I doing wrong? Thank you for your help.

The Feedburner feed is probably OK: it does have the declaration and the correct image reference.. As there are no line returns separating the tags it appears either as one or two long lines or as a slab of text, so it's very difficult to read, and you might want to go through your original feed if you can, and put some line returns in.
Assuming it to be OK, you have two possibilities: both involve you editing the original feed.
For clarity let's label the feeds;
Feed 1 is your original, http://www.felonybuddha.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss
Feed 2 is the Feedburner-generated one, http://feeds.feedburner.com/felonybuddha/MhvA
Method 1: amend feed 1 to contain the necessary tags. The top section of the feed should read:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<rss xmlns:atom='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'
xmlns:openSearch='http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearchrss/1.0/'
xmlns:georss='http://www.georss.org/georss'
xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' version='2.0'
xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" version="2.0">
<channel>
Then in the top section of the feed, after 'channel' and before the first 'item' tag, add:
<itunes:image href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/PuXcBmmd7sY/TAmrnudmrHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/W8kCV6S3N2U/s1600/iStock000010405007XSmall.jpg" />
making sure you don't get this inside another tag (and there must be no line breaks within this). There are still other tags missing, which though they aren't essential, ought really to be there.
Method 2: this might be preferable - redirect iTunes to Feed 2. Feedburner does add a lot of garbage to the feed (intended for compatibility with other rss readers) but they shouldn't cause any problems; however there are some caveats, see below. The method:
You will need to add the following tag to Feed 1, after the 'channel' tag and before the first 'item' tag:
<itunes:new-feed-url>http://feeds.feedburner.com/felonybuddha/MhvA</itunes:new-feed-url>
Before doing this you should read this Apple Tech Note just so that you are completely clear what you are doing.
Re-upload the feed and leave it there until iTunes has changed to the new feed - this may take some days. To check whether it's changed, go to the Store page for your podcast, click on the 'Subscribe' button, go to the 'Podcasts' section in the sidebar, and click on the 'i' button on the extreme right of the line for your overall podcast (not the episode). The pane which pops up contains the feed iTunes is using.
Caveats:
Make sure you get the URL exactly right in the redirect. If you make a mistake *you will not be able to get it back* once iTunes has redirected.
Be aware that once you have transferred to Feed 2 you cannot edit that feed directly, only the feed you submit to Feedburner. This may possibly mean that if you later want to redirect to another feed you won't be able to.

My new podcast episodes are not showing up on the main page

my podcast page hasn't updated in 2 weeks even though i've been adding new episodes to my feed:
http://www.cofc.edu/~hiottm/RSS.XML
When i click SUBSCRIBE, i see the newest episodes there, so iTunes is reading my feed correctly, but why aren't they showing up on the main page?
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=200063590
Does anyone know if there is a LIMIT to how many will show up on that main page? I have 45 being displayed, but my feed has 59 separate items. I've not read anything that indicates there is a limit.
any help would be appreciated!!

I have exactly the same problem with the feed from my podcast at
http://angus_sessions.podOmatic.com/rss2.xml
My other podcast downloads fine.
The same problem is experience in iTunes on both my Mac and PC so it appears to be aniTunes issue, particularly since Juice has no problem updating using the same rss feed.
It would be great if the iTunes team would comment.

My podcast artwork is not showing in iTunes.

I just noticed this today: the artwork for my podcast (Anything Ghost) is missing from iTunes. I also noticed this with a couple of other podcasts, as well. Was there a change in the artwork requirements on iTunes?
I've been running this podcast since 2006, and have never had this problem, nor have I made any changes to my artwork within the past few months.
When I noticed the artwork was gone, I uploaded a new piece of artwork at a lower resolution, but it doesn't seem to have any affect.
I use Libsyn for my podcast service.
Please let me know if you have any idea what is wrong, as the Halloween season is approaching and this is the time when I get most of my downloads.
Thanks!
Lex

Lex,
Make sure the file size of the image is under 500 kb.
So the overall specs for artwork are:
1,400 x 1,400 pixels.
.png or .jpg (RGB) - NOT (CMYK)
and file size <500 kb
We have seen issues with artwork that meets all the top specs - but the file size is over 500 kb.

Hey all! I'm wondering why my podcast image is not showing up in the itunes store.

my feed is http://thealexsteinpodcast.andyerikson.com/feed/
thanks

Your image is correctly referenced in the feed, is the right size, and is present on the server.
The Store can be quite slow to show a new image, and sometimes it seems to get stick and can take quite some days - or even weeks. I'm afraid there isn't really anything you can do about it except wait for the Store to catch up/

Artwork is not showing up on iTunes and on my iphone.

Artwork is not showing up on iTunes and on my iphone. Why is this?

I am having the same problem, i edited everything multiple times, sometime my album artwork will show up and then disappear after time. I have tried everything, even wiping my ipads music library and changing each file to AAC format, the artwork remains in my itunes when i pull up a song but as soon as i transfer the music to my ipad, everything loads successfully...EXCEPT the album artwork. Really annoying!! I really wish i could find an answer before I load all of my music back on and just give up on the search for answers,
please get in touch with me if you find out how to fix this and i will do the same for you.
I have twitter, facebook, myspace, tumblr, about me, google & aol

Podcast home page not showing all podcasts

Hello fellow podcasters!
I've successfully created a podcast, but am now in a bit of a jam. See, the home page of my podcast is now not showing all my podcasts.
Click here for my podcast:
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=277495620
Now, I'm not sure if the home page only shows the most recent ones (If so, how do they define, "most recent"?) and moreover, if it only shows the most recent ones, how do I change it so it shows ALL of the podcasts created?
Appreciate any help you can provide me.
Sincerely,
Dennis Chin

iTunes Store shows the number of podcasts that are listed in the XML file. Some podcast-making programs and online services which create the XML file for you limit the number of episodes in the XML file - usually there is a setting somewhere to adjust this.

Wordpress/podpress podcast category does not show up in iTunes list

My co-hosts and I are using Wordpress/Podpress to publish Dogear-Nation, a weekly podcast focusing on technology and innovation that we've had up on iTunes for more than a year. Using podpress, in the iTunes:Categories, we've had "Technology:Tech News" for some time, however, when you go to the iTunes client, and select Podcasts->Technology->Tech News, and view either by featured or alpha order, the Dogear-Nation podcast does not show up in the 5 pages of podcasts. Trying the same with Podcasts-Technology yields the same results.
However, when you search for Dogear-Nation directly from the Search iTunes Store spotlight, the 'home page' for the podcast shows up, with the category of "Technology:Tech News" correctly displayed.
Finally got frustrated enough to ask the iTunes community this question -- hope that someone might point me in the right direction and suggest any steps to make this podcast discoverable to people who are browsing the Tech News podcasts!

Podcast Artwork refusing to show up in iTunes.

I started a new podcast which is hosted by MyMac.com and was submitted into iTunes by Tim of MyMac.com. He's submitted many podcasts to iTunes and knows what he's doing.
However, in the case of my podcast, the artwork is not showing. I have verified the link that he's using, and the artwork exists and displays fine in the browser, so it should be accessible to iTunes.
Any ideas on how to get iTunes to refresh its image cache, or who to contact at Apple to resolve this? Since I didn't submit the podcast myself, I'm a little limited in my options.
The podcast link is http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/pocket-sized-podcast/id410415010
Thanks.

Your feed references the podcast image correctly. It's become apparent from the number of similar posts that there is an ongoing problem with the Podcast Images. They were always slow to appear, but in some cases it's been weeks with no results.
There isn't really anything you can do yourself - your feed is fine. I would recommend you and anyone else with this issue to contact iTunes Support. You won't get an immediate resolution, but if a lot of people complain it may kick-start them into doing something about it.
Go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ - click on 'Other iTunes Store Features' in the list and then on 'Podcasts'. You will see a link to 'Express Lane', which will guide you eventually to some contact options.

i purchased 2 books for my iPad and they downloaded successfully. They show up in iTunes when my iPad is connected to my Mac but do not show up on the Mac. Is this a synch issue? When I click the Synch box I am warned that downloads on my iPad will be erased. Is that true? My ultimate goad is to be able to read the books on my iPhone as well. Thanks.

You should be able to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to the iPhone (or you could re-download them directly on the iPhone)
