ITunes 11.1 not updating podcasts on Mac

I' ve only had one podcast update this morning from iTunes out of dozens I usually see each morning (the regular as the sunrise, NPR hourly news, for instance, is AWOL).
I've checked my IOS devices and they're not downloading the podcasts by themselves.
Is there something I'm not getting? I've upgraded to iTunes 11.1 all around as well as IOS 7.0 on the IOS devices.
I like to build a day's listening as a Playlist on the Mac, racking and stacking by interest in the topic, and then xfer to the Apple Podcast player.

Okay, found it. In iTunes 11.1, in the left column, under Libraries: click on Podcasts
Find "settings" at the bottom of the frame. The Automatically Download needs to be set to "Most Recent." If it's set to "off" then the podcast will be available in the cloud to pull down individually.

ITunes music store not updating podcast part 2

Hi there,
I seem to be having the same problem as a lot of people in the fact that my podcasts aren't getting updated in the iTunes music store.
I've pinged my podcast and it comes back with 'No Podcast Found For Ping Request.'
I've used feedvalidator.org to check on possible errors and the only one I can find is when it comes back with this message:
Your feed appears to be encoded as "UTF-8", but your server is reporting "US-ASCII"
I haven't got a clue what this means....
If you subscribe to my podcasts, the latest one gets downloaded to you, but there's only one appearing in the itunes store.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Olive

Hey guys, here is what I posted in another thread because I was having a similar problem. Run your rss feed through feedvalidator.org and see if there are any problems-then try to resolve them. Anyway, it's kinda long, but here's what helped me!
I found the answer thanks to Rob @ podcast411.com!! I ran my rss feed through feed validator, and found that I was using a category that iTunes no longer used. I didn't think this would've mattered, but I went into my rss.xml file and updated the category from Sports to Sports and Recreation, and a few minutes later all was well in the ITMS. The trick was finding the rss.xml file. Here's what I did:
Mount iDisk
open web folder
open rss folder
open iWeb folder
open kangaroopodcast folder (this one will be named what you named your website in GarageBand)
open podcast folder
ctrl-click rss.xml file and choose to open with Text Edit (this is where I had my trouble because at first I didn't open it with a different program than the default one and it was some goffy game-I guess apple was trying to mask it so you don't mess up your rss feed)
next make appropriate changes (here you can use the info from the podcast tech specs page to know how to use the proper "language" to make the category change.
Anyway, I know this was long, but I hope that it helps someone else because I spent a while trying to figure it out!

My itunes Feeds are not updating

My itunes feeds are not updating. One stopped updating a couple weeks ago, while another one is approaching a month without an update. Anyone have any ideas on what is going on? Anything i can do to resolve this issue? Any help is appreciated. thank you.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/g-t-show-podcasts/id532987947?mt=2
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/g-and-t-show/id689638265?mt=2

The feed for the first podcast you list is at
http://feeds.feedburner.com/gandtshow/RAcB
There is a line at the very top of the feed which reads
Notice: Undefined index: feed_redirect_url in /hermes/bosnaweb03a/b2043/ipw.certifiedpcdoctor2/public_html/GandTshow/wp-conte nt/plugins/powerpress/powerpress.php on line 1377
Its presence renders the feed unreadable; when subscribing it shows up blank, and the iTunes Store is showing a cached version from the last time it could read the feed.
The feed for the second podcast is at
http://www.gandtshow.com/?feed=podcast2
There appear to be no errors in this feed, but it is showing up empty when subscribing. It did take a long time to load in Firefox, so it's possible that it may be timing out in iTunes and the Store.

Appletv not updating podcasts - has apple sold a product then dropped support after 1 year? May 2014

appletv not updating podcasts - has apple sold a product then dropped support after 1 yera? May 2014 - None of the podcasts are being updated on appletv. Running itunes 11.2 and it shows podcasts there. Apple looks more like windows every day.

Before blaming Apple, was any troubleshooting actually attempted? If so, what was done?
Or was it simply easier to jump to conclusions?

My feeds are updating but the iTunes store has not updated

I put my rss feed up on feedburner and all my feeds have updated but the iTunes store has not updated. I was wondering if there a simple explanation for it. Subscribers to the podcast have gotten the most recent update but the store hasn't reflected the new changes.

When you add a new episode to your feed and upload it, it appears immediately for subscribers because their iTunes application reads the feed directly and the Store is not involved.
However because of the huge number of podcasts in the Store (thousands) the Store caches the feed and checks it for updates periodically. For this reason it usually takes 1-2 days for new episodes to appear in the Store: sometimes it can be less, and occasionally the whole process seems to get stuck and it can take several days.
All this assumes that you haven't made an error of some sort in adding your episode: it's not possible to comment on that unless you would like to publish the URLs of both your feed and the Store page - this latter can be found by control-clicking on the podcast image (or where it should be) - and choosing 'Copy link'. Please include the http:// in both cases to make the links clickable.

When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update the play count? Is there a setting I need to change?

When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update my play counts. Is there a way to make this happen?

Are you using iTunes Match by chance? I had no problems whatsoever with play counts synching between any of my devices until I started using iTunes Match. I turned it off and magically my play counts synced. Once. Hasn't happened again though.

Itunes does not update podcasts mac

My itunes no longer updates podcasts. Last successful update was 7/14/14 for one podcast and 7/11/14 for others v. 11.3 (54). Clicking on the ! does not work. In some cases it freezes iTunes. Any ideas? Thanks.

Unfortunately it did not work out. It downloads the file and then after a while "processing the file" and the it gives the message "timed out make sure you're connected to internet"

Itunes Store Has not updated my podcast for 5 months

I have been maintaining 4 separate podcasts for about a year and I have one feed that will not update in the itunes store but if you subscribe to the feed then all of the episodes are there. I do not use any program to create the XML files, I just edit them with the required info. Any help with this would be great.
THanks
Here is the Feed
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=262138599
Here is my XML file.
http://www.libertychurch.net/audio/nc/podcast.xml

Your feed is littered with  ; these are intended to enclose comments and prevent them being shown except when viewing the feed directly for programming purposes. They are excluding large chunks of your feed from being read. How did they get there? You should look closely at the feed (which as it stands only seems to contain three viable episodes:
Numbers: Zhongwen Vol 1 Lesson 1
Dixie 400: A Flea Market in North Georgia
Jobs
and remove any of these tags you don't need. I can't check on iTunes until tomorrow morning but I would expect it not to show the other two episodes either.
Also FeedValidator comments 'Feeds should not be served with the "text/plain" media type' - I don't know whether this could be an issue: please see this note at FeedValidator:

ITunes store is not loading on my mac bookpro

I have a Mac BookPro and iTunes 10.4 but recently the store will not open. At times my iPhone 4 will not sync either. Just charges up. Sometimes it just pops up and sync's on its own a while after I plug it in.
But the iTunes store not loading is a problem because podcasts load, but are not recognized. When I play one, the screen just stays black at the end and I have to restart the computer to get out of it.
All this really started when I found out OS Lion was not compatable on the mac bookpro.
Apple won't talk to me about this at all. Guess they want me to buy a new laptop.
Thanks for your help anybody.

Apple TV not updating podcasts.

Hi,
I use my Apple TV every day to watch different podcasts, but since a few days the podcasts in my Apple TV are not updating. I have restarted my iTunes on my computer and restarted my Apple TV, but that is not working. Any advice on what to do next?
Best,
Marco.

Yes, I am having the same problem with my 2 ATVs after the update, but there is another strange occurance that I think may be related... I gave my father an ATV as a present recently and told him to just use my ID to access podcasts as he didn't have an apple account.
I seems that my updated ATV caused problems with my fathers because he was using the same account... Also, for me even when I check the podcast through iTunes in only lists up to February 5... Seems it may be an iTunes account & sync related issue...
I hope this is resolved very soon...

ITunes and iCloud not Updating

As of Yesterday afternoon my iCloud will not update my information. I called the apple help line were they took me though many steps that I had already done and finally said that the server must be down and to try to sign in to iCloud later. This is funn because he had mentioned earlier that the servers were fine. I also noticed that I can not update any of my apps on iTunes from my Macbook or iOS devices.
I am not sure were to go from here. The call didn't help and I know that my network is working fine. I haven't done anything differently then usual on my mac.
I always update everything and keep everything clean. I am running the latest updates for OSX and iOS.
Can someone help?

ITunes 12 are not updating apps and transfering purchases

I really don't know why it is happening. I lost my old iTunes library on a Hard Drive crash. So, I created a new one. I connected my iPad, iPod and iPhone, transfered purchased on the first time, backup, sync... all things that we have to do. Then, I saw something strange. On iTunes 12.1.2.27, mine iTunes, I download new updates but they don't update the apps on my device. And if I download the updates on the devices, the iTunes is not transfering new updates and new apps too. Really don't know why that. Every update I have to do manually. Why that guys? Yosemite here too.

Here is a screenshot of the phenomenon/problem... NBC Nightly News is not updated, even both the computer and iTunes are running constanly. Once I click update podcast, the podcast updates, so there is an update available.

Feedburner w/itunes feed details not updating

Ive been having an issue for MONTHS where my feedburner manipulated feed refuses to update with the new summary of my podcast feed from what it was originally set to in itunes. The only thing I can think of is that this is because of some weird itunes caching.
LINK TO FEED SOURCE:
http://www.joeshowradio.com/rss_files/feedburner.rss
LINK TO FEEDBURNER:
feeds.feedburner.com/MmaJoeShowRadio-UndergroundMmaRadio
for whatever reason, when feedburner updates my feed is alters the feed information to match what it was originally set to in itunes. how do I stop this from happening?

So Feedburner is not updating the info from the feed. As I understand it, what is in Feedburner in the 'itunes:subtitle' 'itunes:summary' and 'itunes:image' tags is what was there originally? - and subsequently you changed the subtitle and summary to the entries with the first sentence in capitals, and presumably must have changed the image?
Did you do this before or after adding the latgst episode? - the question being whether Feedburner is updating from the feed, just not those particular tags, or whether it's not updating at all.
I can't see why it shouldn't update - the only thing odd about the feed is the absence ot the xml declaration in the first line:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
which Feedburner adds - presumably this has always been missing anyway? - and the feed validates in FeedValidator and can be subscribed to in iTunes so this shouldn't be a problem.
If you made the changes after adding the latest episode (not at the same time) then I suppose it's possible that FeedBurner might not see the changes until the next time you add an episode - iTunes is liable to do that but I dono't know about FeedBurner.
You could also look round Feedburner and see whether there is somewhere you can over-ride the contents of these tags; I don't know whether this is possible.

My iPod does not update Podcasts correctly

I have a 4th generation iPod that supports podcasts, but whenever I update my iPod, the podcasts go into my music library and not the podcast directory. How could I fix this? Also, I deleted a podcast totally off my computer, and it still remains on my iPod even when I updated. The podcast refuses to remove itself from my iPod. Is there any way I could solve these problems? (I know I also have another post on this, but nobody has answered my other post. It's also been a couple days since it went up)

Yay. Thank you King Cole. You brought a problem to my attention which I just fixed, and it helped me fix another problem too. Here's my procedure for what I did -
1) I opened the iPod Updater.
2)I got an internal manager error.
3)Updated my iTunes 6.00.18 software to the new 6.1.3
4)Reinstalled iTunes Updater Software 10-12-05
5)Reset iPod to factory settings
6)Reloaded iPod
Not only did the Manager error get corrected, but my podcasts were placed in the correct directory and the Fox Broadcasting podcast that I had deleted a long time ago has been removed from my iPod.
