Invalid URL to iTunes Store

I have had my site up for a while and had two podcast pages, one with mp3s and the other with AAC until I figured out the problem with the updated Quicktime. I published to iTunes Store but pulled out when I saw the chapters of my book were imoves. I fixed all my podcasts and deleted one podcast page. Now, I would like to publish to iTunes again but this is an invalid URL http://www.radasky.com/Site/_Podcast-The-Fox/_Podcast-The-Fox.html
How do I fix this?

iTunes wants the location of your .xml file THAT is your podcast URL

Submit your RSS feed to iTunes by visiting _This Link_
If you're serious about podcasting you should really read the iTunes technical specifications page found HERE (the link found on the page in iTunes where you unsuccessfully attempted to submit your podcast)
The iTunes technical specification page has invaluable information regarding podcasts that expand well beyond iWeb's limited podcast xml generator capabilities and gives the podcaster a more thorough understanding of the fundaments behind managing and maintaining a podcast.

Alternate ways to update RSS Feed URL in iTunes Store

Hey all,
Ok, so I am having issues with updating my iTunes Store RSS URL. Here's the storyin a nutshell. If any of you have experience with this i would really appreciate some help, because I have been stuck for week now.
I started my podcast using Podbean.com as a host, and when I first submitted my podcast URL to th iTunes Store, I used the RSS URL that podbean gave me which was http://unfilteredandrew.podbean.com/feed/. A few weeks later, I decided to move my host to SquareSpace, therefore I have a new RSS URL for the podcast now. I understand the directions frovided by Apple on how to change the URL by inserting the <itunes:new-feed-url> tags into the XML file. This is where the problem lies. Podbean.com is not able to instert this tag into my the XML file (its a long story, I have been dealing with thier incompitent customer service for weeks now). Let's assume for now that this method is not optional.
SO my question to you guys is - is there another way to update the RSS URL feed? Currently the iTunes Store see's http://unfilteredandrew.podbean.com/feed/as my RSS feed, but I want it to see the NEW one which is: http://andrewunfiltered.squarespace.com/podcast?format=rss
Please help!!

Ignore the 301 redirect - this is really intended for other rss readers than iTunes.
If you are creating a feed somehow and submitting that to Feedburner, which then passes it on to iTunes, and if you can add the tag to that original feed it will also appear in the Feedburner feed and the redirect will take place.
If you are creating the feed only in Feedburner by entering details, there you cannot directly edit the feed - I don't know whether Feedburner provides a way of doing this: most online podcast creation services don't.
If that's the case then you will have to abaondon the old feed. You should attempt to get the old podcast removed from the Store - instructions here (though there have been a number of reports that iTunes Store staff are simply not bothering to carry out this process) - and submit your new feed as an entirely new podcast. You will probably need to make a small change in the title, as a bug in the Store software may tell you that the podcast has already been submitted: and of course you will lose any subscribers or comments.

IPhone/iPod Touch Safari won't open iTunes Store URL link - help

Hi!
If I use regular web browser on my computer and click on an iTunes Store URL, iTunes App Store will open and show the app info. How come this doesn't work with iPhone Safari web browser? I got alert message "Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid."
Is there another way to make it works?
thanks

Try resetting it:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

HT5113 "Invalid code error" and "can't connect to the iTunes Store." Any suggestions?

I keep getting an "invalid code error" when trying to preview a course with the enroll code. When I click on the link to the course, I get an error that says "can't connect to the iTunes Store." Any suggestions?
I tried previewing a test course I made about a year ago. I was able to request access to the course, went into Course Manager and approved it, but hours later it still says awaiting approval on my iPad.
Any ideas as to what could be going on, aside from a cruel April Fool's joke?
Thanks.

How about trying to sign out of your account on the iPad, restart the iPad, sign back into the account and then try again?
Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap on your ID and sign out - restart - go back - sign in.
Other than going through the support article - if you haven't already done so - the only other thing I can think of is to reset/reboot the iPad. That can clear the memory and it does help solve a lot of "hinky" issues.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

When I try to go to the volume purchasing website in Safari it opens up the regular iTunes store. When I click on the same URL on my PC, it goes to the volume purchasing site. How can I get my iPad2 to go to this website?

The URL I'm trying to go to is https://volume.itunes.apple.com/us/store. I purchased an app and am trying to install it. Because I purchased it in the Education store, I can't install from the main iTunes store.

This is happening to me too. I recently purchased about 4 music videos from iTunes, 3 of them play on both my pc and my iPod Touch but there's one particular music video that will only play on my pc and gives me the same "The requested url cannot be found on this server" message when I try to play it on my iPod. Can someone please rectify?

Can't connect to itunes store. Get a message that the keychain is invalid.

Powerbook G4 10.3.9
Whenever I try to buy a song I get the message:
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The requested keychain was invalid."
and in smaller print the message is:
"Open Keychain Access and run Keychain First Aid, then try again"
I have run keychain first aid and get the message that everything is okay. I don't know if this problem is connected to the security update I did 2 days ago. The last time I did a security update I had problems getting online thru Airport.
Has anyone else had this problem and knows how to fix it?
If it is connected to the security update, is the update for 10.4? and not 10.3.9?

Pages v5 documents do not have an internal index.xml file. When you attempt to open one of these with the older Pages '09, you will get that dialog. Double-click the document icon, or right-click, and open with Pages v5 to access the document contents.

Security Code Invalid preventing me from signing in to iTunes Store

I just got itunes today and I created an account but I can't actually do anything because as soon as I click "Sign in" for the itunes store, I get a message saying "This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store. Please review your information." The only options I have are "Review" or "Cancel". When I click "Review" it asks me to enter my credit card information. I enter it, but it tells me that my Security Code is invalid. Now I know there's a workaround by using this information: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 The problem is, I can't even log in to go to my account settings in order to re-enter my information. I know all the information is the same as what my bank has on record. Is there any other way to fix this issue? It's preventing me from using the iTunes Store.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

I try to conect to the itune store but it said that i have an invalid addres

when connecting to the itune store keeps telling me that i have an invalid addres. what should i do?

Do you currently have a credit card set up in your iTunes store Enter Payment Information screen?
If so, grab a recent statement for that card and check to make sure that the address that shows up in your Enter Payment Information screen exactly matches the address showing on your credit card statement. For example, if your address in the credit card statement says "Street", the iTunes screen has to also say "Street" (Not St or Str.) Also match the capitalisation of the address on your statement. (If it says STREET in the statement make it say STREET in the iTunes screen, not Street or street.)
Also make sure that your name in the iTunes screen exactly matches the one in your statement. (Say, if you've got a middle initial in the credit card statement name, you need one in the iTunes screen.)
After doing that, does that get you past the invalid address thing?
If not, there's some additional suggestions in the following post:

ITunes is truncating enclosure URLs to 511 characters, but only inside the 'iTunes Store' panel

URLs for my audio and video files are usually about 600 characters long. Inside the <enclosure> of my podcast feeds, I use a shorter URL that redirects (HTTP 302) to the longer URL.
This normally works fine. I can add an RSS feed in Advanced > Subscribe to Podcast, and it works fine. I can find the podcast inside the iTunes store and subscribe to it, and that works fine also. iTunes manages the podcasts as expected, downloads new episodes, and plays them back without a problem.
What doesn't work is when I find the podcast inside the iTunes store and try to play the episodes right there instead of subscribing. On that page (you know the one, it shows the podcast title and info and lists the latest ten episodes) when I try to preview any episode by clicking the play button on that episode, it fails to play. This feature works for most podcasts, but not for the ones I'm publishing.
I've inspected my network traffic and found that iTunes is going to the shorter url and following the redirect as expected, but when it sends the second GET request, it only uses the first 511 bytes of the longer URL. I can only assume that this is because somewhere in the iTunes codebase, it's storing this URL value in a C string inside a 512 byte buffer and truncating anything that doesn't fit.
I'm using iTunes 10.5 on OSX 10.6
Has anybody seen this before? Is there a workaround? Is there a version of iTunes that this doesn't happen in? Is it a known bug?

600 characters! I don't think I've ever seen an URL that long - though a bit of quick research shows that this question has been asked about browsers and apparently the maximum limit for IE7 was 2048 characters, though somebody testing this with IE8 found it could handle 4095 characters.
As to the iTunes Store, no-one in these forums would have any way of knowing whether there is an imposed limit in iTunes - only the programmers would know, and you know how secretive Apple is. If you are finding that long URLs fall over, then obviously you've hit a brick wall with it, and I don't see any change of it changing. I imagine you've already considered using a shorter URL, and are using a longer one for a reason, but in the end I doubt you have any option but to change your practice, as I would think the chance of Apple changing theirs is approaching nil.

TS3297 itunes store URL bug

I've run into issues with users being prompted for proxy authentication when accessing the itunes store and found via extended logging on our proxy server that I had to add "ax.init.itunes.apple.com." to our list of sites allowed to bypass the proxy. (Yes, there is a dot at the end of the URL!)
Hope this helps anyone else stuck on the same issue.

same here. I just get a blank white screen when i try to access the iTunes Store from my Mac. Anyone have a fix or know what's happening?

How to find out podcast's URL (to add it manually; iTunes Store error -9812

I'm trying to subscribe to the free podcast called TEDtalks. I've located it in the iTunes Store, but when I hit "subscribe", I get "unknown error -9812". Same thing when I try to log in to the store. Nothing I've tried helps resolve this error (it started after I added some SSL certificates to my keychain). Anyway, I want to add the URL to this podcast to iTunes manually (through the Advanced menu). How do I find out the URL? I've done this before for other podcasts, but I just can't seem to figure out what the URL is for this one. I can subscribe to it on another Mac; if I do that, can I get it to display the URL it's using so that I can add it by hand?

That is a bit of a nuisance as the site itself does not have an easily visible URL for the podcast. Fortunately, a Google search comes up with Learn Out Loud which shows this:
*http://feeds.feedburner.com/TEDTalks_audio*
as the feed URL. Copy and paste that into the advanced menu of iTunes.
awesome!! Thank you so much. The darn TED website doesn't have it and I spent a lot of time googling looking for it. And the iTunes store doesn't let me log in. But this does the trick - fantastic.

Can't download songs from iTunes Store - Changed/Invalid Email??

This is probably a really stupid question, but I'll ask anyway. On my iPod Touch, running the latest firmware, I tried to download a song off the iTunes Store. It prompts me for my password and the account name it has listed is correct. However, I receive the following error:
Your email address has changed or is invalid. Go to the iTunes Store on your computer and update your Account info.
I'm at work now, so needless to say I don't have access to my home computer. I'm not sure why I'd be receiving this message as my iTunes account information hasn't changed in years and all my purchased music plays just fine on my Touch.
My email is a Yahoo account, however, I have my Mail client on the Touch set up to retrieve my DotMac account only. Is that perhaps an issue here? I wouldn't think so since I thought the Touch got the iTunes account info from syncing with iTunes on the host computer.
Is there any configuration that can be changed on the Touch to rectify this?
Thanks!

Hi Curt,
Well, to solve this problem you only need to connect your iPod to the computer. I'm not sure why this happened, but if your iPod have access to your iTunes Store account, then it will automatically update your missing info.
You just need to authorize your computer and connect your iPod.
So you have two options:
Do it when you arrive home, connecting it to your home computer;
or
Fist authorize your work computer, the connect your iPod. If you want, you can deauthorize this computer after finishing the process.
Unfortunately there's nothing you can do directly on your iPod Touch
Hope this helps!
