I replaced a podcast episode on my rss feed but it won't delete in iTunes.

Hi. I recently started a podcast and we just became searchable in iTunes yesterday. After recording our second episode a few days ago, one of the podcast hosts finished editing and added the media file to our website and rss feed. I guess he never listened to it before doing so because there is a bad audio problem (one part is way louder than the others.) We have since fixed the audio problem and replaced the file on the post but when I listen to it on iTunes it is still playing the old episode with the audio problem.
I have deleted the entire post for episode 2 and currently episode 1 is the only one in the rss feed (as far as I know.)
It's still showing up on my computer's iTunes and iPhone podcast app. I cleared my iTunes cache and went into settings and deleted the podcast from the podcast app, I unsubscribed and resubscribed and episode 2 is still showing up.
Am I missing something? Is there a better way to clear the cache?
I had thought that subscribing would automatically link to what's happening in my feed but I can't seem to shake that old episode.
I am ready to make a new post with the fixed audio file but I would like to make sure that a.) The old one is gone so that two Episode 2s don't show and b.) that there isn't somewhere the messed up audio file is hiding.
Here is the link to my iTunes podcast feed:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/geek-lazer-podcast/id805908659
Here is the feed that iTunes is pulling from:
http://geeklazer.com/feed/podcast/
I greatly appreciate the help.

Mr. Churchill - First, to answer your last questions:
Yes, the movie is fully downloaded, all 3.69 GBs.
No the Apple TV has 127.5 GBs of its 144.63 GBs free.
Second, I tried turning the Time Capsule WiFi rounter and Apple TV off (for at least two or three minutes, not the usual 10 seconds recommended) and I still could not move the movie.
Third, I severed the link and set it up again re-synced all 5,103 items back and still when I move the movies to the Apple TV box and Apply it, after 35 seconds it stops the sync and moves it back the the Rented Movies box.
Though I have set my Apple TV to sync with my MacBook Pro I cannot find a way to connect it to other than shared library, but not the "not shared library" (Is this what the Rented Movies are?). Is what Fletch is talking about int the "Rental Movies not showing up on Apple TV" discussion my problem and a solution?

there are three possibilities: you have not upgraded to version 2.0 or in Summary on the ATV device in iTunes, you should look whether you have it set up to only sync or otherwise disables movie syncing, or you have not paired your Mac to the ATV (on your tv, settings/computers/connect to itunes library - not shared library)

Or is it something else?

Itunes can only find one episode on my RSS feed... help?!

I am having some issues with getting my podcast up and running. My RSS seems to be working and the files seem to be accessible yet only one of my test episodes works. I have been attempting to use garage band to share episodes with iweb with no luck. the only episode that seemed to work was an older audio file that I dropped straight into iweb (skipping the editing process in garage band). I am trying to figure out why only one episode out of several can be found by itunes...
This is my RSS feed address: http://brentviewhub.com/Hub_Ministries/Talks/rss.xml
Here is the link to the Itunes working episode: http://brentviewhub.com/Hub_Ministries/Media/100115_004.mp3
I feel a little frustrated as I am a little code illiterate, any help would be much appreciated!
Dan

I've looked at it again: my FireFox will play two of the mp3 episodes, but complains that it need an additional plugin to play the earliest episode, despite the fact that it's also MP3.
iTunes will only download the second to latest episode: it complains that the other cannot be found on the server.
Safari will play all of them.
All except the second episode have spaces in the filename: these are replaced in the feed with the code %20 and normally in this situation it all works OK (it's when the URL in the feed has spaces that it falls over) so though it's a messy looking solution it shouldn't cause a problem.
Though you are using iWeb to create the podcast - which should work perfectly well - you are apparently not using MobileMe but another server. Servers have to be configured to deliver different types of file correctly: so, for example, if you have an M4a file but the server hasn't been set up to deliver it properly, instead of playing in a browser as it should it will be downloaded (which is what happens with an unknown file type).
It can't be as simple as that here, since Safari is not having any problems, but as FireFox and iTunes are it does suggest that the server may be responding incorrectly to certain types of request. That's something you would have to take up with the people running it.
However since, although it might be coincidental, it is the case that the one trouble-free file doesn't have a space in the filename, it would be sensible to get rid of the spaces. To do this you will have to rename the files and drag them anew into iWeb, and then do a complete republish: this will rewrite the feed to match the new file names, but of course all the files will have to be uploaded again. As it's a comparatively easy (if tiresome) step it's obviously worth trying first.

Old podcast rss feed no longer exists, do I need to creat a new podcast show for new rss feed?

Hi,
I have an established podcast (Tommy Unit Live) but the RSS feed is no longer valid. Do I need to request a new show (set up a new show) to update with the currect RSS feed?
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
Tom Meehan

Do you mean that the old feed no longer exists and you don't have access to the server to replace it? In that case your best hope is to email Support at podcasts 'at' apple.com and ask them to transfer the iTunes Store's attention to the new feed: give them the ID number or the URL of the Store page, and the URL of the new feed - check this beforehand by subscribing manually in iTunes (from the 'Advanced' menu) so that you are sure you are dealing with a working feed.
They've just done this for someone else so hopefully they will do it for you: the alternative is to start again from scratch and submit the new feed as a completely new podcast (you would need to change the title slightly or you will be told it has already been submitted).

Replacing an Airport Express with a Time Capsule but it won't connect to the internet.

Hello, I hope somebody can help.
I am trying to replace an Airport Express with a 2TB Time Capsule but it won't connect to the internet, via an ADSL modem.
I have tried everything I can think of, powering down all devices, re-setting all devices, but nothing seems to solve the problem.
When I first tried to set up the Time Capsule, there was an option to replace the Airport Express using the same settings.
But there were repeated error messages of 'No DNS Servers' and 'PPPoE server couldn't be found'.
I also had messages that the password for PPPoE wasn't correct, but when I plug the Airport Express back in again, everything works fine.
What could the problem be?

99% of issues with authentication are wrong password or wrong username.. eg it can be strange like the user name is missing the domain.. whereas the Airport Express works fine without it.
Ring your ISP and make doubly sure you have exactly the correct username and password.
If it still doesn't work, put the adsl modem back into router mode and try it again directly on the modem.. if it works ok on the modem but fails on the TC that is possible and can be caused by pppoe client using incorrect authentication type, CHAP or PAP which the TC does not allow you to select AFAIK.. some ISP do not give enough time to get the router to switch on auto to the correct authentication method.
In the end run the modem as router and bridge the TC. It will work just as well for most installations in bridge as the modem in bridge.

I have done what it said in a previous question and exported my IE RSS feeds, but I can't understand how to import them into FireFox ot how to view them once they are imported.

In a previous question, someone asked hoe to import RSS feeds from IE to FireFox:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/358684?s=rss&as=q
I have done as it says, but had trouble with the second step which was "installing OPML Support 1.5.2 extension for Firefox, which you can use to import OPML file you just exported from IE". I think I installed the extension, but now what? how does it help me import the feeds? And where do i view RSS feeds in FireFox?

Podcast Image Shows Up In Feed But Not In Store

I just got my Podcast approved this morning. All excited, I checked it in the Itunes Store and the artowrk is not there.
For some reason, when you subscribe, the image does shows up. So the feed has the image, just the Itunes store does not.
Here is the Feed:
http://jeffreybuettner.com/feed/podcast/
Itunes Store Link:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/running-with-real-estate/id805017790
Link to the 1400x1400 Image: http://jeffreybuettner.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Running-With-Real-Estate-1 .png
Thoughts?

The image is correctly referenced in your feed. It's quite normal for the image to take some days to show up in the Store after a new podcast as first appeared.

In Mail, can see messages from RSS feed but not my e-mail account

Mac OS 10.5.8, Mail 3.6. Turned on the computer and could not see any e-mails, though computer idnicated there were a few waiting for me. Found the messages in finder, but can'r figure out how to get mail to see them. Receieved some RSS ["apple news"] emaages and they show up fine. Tried "rebuiding" & "reindexing" and re-importing to no avail. Any ideas?

Here is the new incoming server info to be changed in the accounts preferences box.
imap.mail.me.com
The old one is mail.me.com
The only possible problem I see is that sometimes the incoming mail server cannot be changed and you might have to create a new account, but I think,and I'm not sure, that this deletes your messages in the mail program, so back up before you try this. Just in case.
Hope this helps.

Need immediate help validating RSS Feed.

Hey guys, I recently purchased some webhosting and my own domain and everything in those regards are going great. However, after changing all the links in my RSS to reflect the new domain that i have uploaded my podcast episodes to, the RSS feed stopped working. I have tried many thing to get it validated by feedvalidator and i have had no luck. Can anyone please take a look at my RSS feed and tell me whats going on. Thanks in advance.

The closing '/guid' tag for your first episode has a space in it - </ guid> - it may be this which is currently rendering your feed unreadable.
iTunes is cuirrently looking for a feed at
http://www.djjohnnyblaze.com/The%20DJ%20Johnny%20Blaze%20Podcast/rss.xml
and not finding it. The '%20' codes are because there are spaces in the URL, which is not allowed. You are going to have to get a feed to that URL in order to move iTunes to your present feed, as well as correcting the above error.

ITunes displays my podcast show but no podcast episode?

I was notified that my first podcast was accepted by iTunes a day ago. Here is the URL given in my acceptance email:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/just-love-walking-show/id733590672
I can see my Just Love Walking show description and the first episode from the URL above, but when I click "view in iTunes"
ONLY the Just Love Walking Show description appears but NO podcast episode.
1. Will the episode appear within the next day or so?
Or is there a problem that I need to investigate & remedy?
Also,
2. Can I make changes to the iTunes category in the future? Currently it just shows "amateur" when I was hoping it would show "Sports & Recreation" the higher level category. Can I change that in my iTunes podcast description at the feed level in my feed provider's account (Libsyn).
Thank you.
JustLoveWalking

Rob & Roger,
OK, I just did a search for the Just Love Walking Show iTunes on google and was linked to my iTunes podcast show page where I finally DID see and was able to play my first (and only) podcast!! Hurray!!
I viewed it from: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/just-love-walking-show/id733590672 and then linked to iTunes. I also could see the same display of the episode from a search inside of iTunes.
BUT...my podcast cover artwork did NOT show up in iTunes! The cover artwork has been displaying beautifully for several days in iTunes and I have NOT changed anything in Libsyn to effect any changes. My Libsyn feed is: http://justlovewalking.libsyn.com/rss
Also I just checked my own website and the podcast cover art continues to display wonderfully well for my Libsyn Wizard player embeded links on my site: http://www.justlovewalking.com/ . So what could the problem be now? My cover artwork fulfills the iTunes requirements (RGB color, 1400x1400, HD quality, etc) and as I said, has displayed on iTunes for several days!
I hope this will sort itself out soon! I'd like to be able to start promoting my podcast and to be able to tell people that I'm listed on iTunes (with cover art that I've been very careful to create correctly for iTunes).
...sorry to go on...this is frustrating...
Again your help has been really supportive and I truly appreciate all of your responses:)
Best Regards
JustLoveWalking

My podcast isn't updating in iTunes despite the fact that my RSS feed is updating just fine. Help?

I posted an episode about a week and a bit ago. It was viewable on the RSS feed but not on iTunes. After a week went by I tried reposting it plus the next day I posted another new episode as a test. Neither appeared in the podcast.
My RSS feed seems fine. Does anyone know what's going on?

Hi Jacolli,
I have recommended Libsyn.com for the past 7 Plus years. I have worked for them for the past 5 years - so I am a little biased. But again I was recommending them before I worked for them.
Libsyn is the largest podcast host. 90% of the top audio comedy podcast host with libsyn. And any given week 30 to 50% of the top audio podcast in iTunes top 200 list are podcasts using libsyn.
If you are using Feedburner - switching is simple. We can import in your files from your source feed - and then you can just repoint feedburner to the new libsyn feed. Then going forward all you have to do is upload a file - enter a title and description and hit publish - it is that easy.
feel free to email me off the board for more info - rob at wizzard dot tv

Removing podcast episodes from iTunes 12 but keeping the files

I want to be able to remove a podcast episode from iTunes 12 but keep the audio file on my computer. This used to be an option, but now I am no longer asked if I want to keep the file. It's just automatically moved to the Trash. I like to archive podcast episodes on my external drive, but I don't always feel like getting the drive out when I'm done listening, plugging it in and dragging and dropping the files. I'm lazy like that. I would keep the episodes I plan to archive on iTunes until I feel like breaking out the drive, except that brings me to my second issue: my podcasts seem to all be set to automatically delete played episodes after 24 hours, at least depending on what view I'm in. I have "Delete Played Episodes" set to "Off" in my default podcast settings, and when I context click a podcast in the "My Podcasts" view and select "Podcast Settings" it says "Delete Played Episodes" is "Off". However when I go to the Playlists view, select an episode and click the "Settings..." button at the bottom, it always says the selected podcast has "Delete Played Episodes" set to "On", even if I click to change it to "Off" in that view. So there's obviously a contradiction there. I don't want to take the chance that my played episodes will be automatically deleted so the sooner I get them off iTunes the better. Unfortunately that means deleting them, then dragging them from Trash back to the iTunes Media/Podcasts folder and into each appropriate podcast folder, which is annoying. Please tell me that the removal of the "Keep the file" option is just a bug. If Apple is, for whatever reason, trying to discourage me from moving my played episodes out of iTunes and onto another drive, then I'm just going to stop using iTunes altogether.

The iTunes Store reads your feed at intervals and caches the contents (the information, not the actual media files): when you make a change to the feed it usually takes 1-2 days for this to be reflected in the Store. Pinging doesn't seem to make a lot of difference. Very occasionally it all slows down and can take several days.

Unable to check/uncheck older podcast episodes in iPod sync to iTunes 11.0

Hi,
I have a few podcasts in my iTunes where I have saved a large number of episodes. Now I have upgraded to the new version of iTunes I unable to check/uncheck older podcast episodes from iPod syncing - the finder window won't scroll to the bottom of the list, and just 'bounces' after scrolling past a certain number!
Not sure if this is a bug, or I'm overlooking something.
Thanks

I have the same problem. Scrolling does not work in the iPod podcast list panel, but it works in every other panel or window in iTunes...

ITunes is only showing my eight most recent Podcast episodes. Why?

I checked my feed from feedburner and everything is showing up as it should. Before releasing my newest episode, Episode 4 was the earliest one. After releasing it, Episode 5 is the earliest. What's happening?

I don't know how you have managed to achieve this, but you have got yourself into a tangle. The feed you linked to is fine, but iTunes is in fact looking for a feed at
http://soundedgoodonpaper.com/comic/?feed_slug=cbl
and this is not a feed but a web page, and so iTunes can't read it. Consequently the Store is sticking on the cached version of the last time it was able to read the feed, and subscribing does not work.
I have no idea how this has happened, but it leaves you seriously stuck. Your only option is to email Support at podcasts 'at' apple.com and ask them to move the Store to using the proper feed URL. Give them the URLs of the Store page and both feeds.

Podcasts via RSS Feeds

There are several podcasts that I would like to listen to on my iPod that are not available through iTunes. Many of these podcasts offer content via RSS Feeds. Is there a way to automate how/where these RSS feeds are downloaded so as to be automatically included in the iTunes library?
Here is an example of an RSS feed I would like to download into iTunes: http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/wiaa/.jukebox?action=viewPodcast&podcastId=185 7
Any direction would be greatly appreciated....

Cocomj,
Yes, since you have the link for the podcast, open up iTunes.
Go to the Advanced Menu, and then to Subscribe to Podcast, and copy that link into the box.
Then the Podcast will be added to your iTunes section.
I checked with the link you provided and it worked for me for IPR News Features.

I replaced a podcast episode on my rss feed but it won't delete in iTunes.
