Itunes says this feed has no episodes

When I try and submit my podcast iTunes says this feed has no episodes. I used feed burner to create my feed. Here is the link http://feeds.feedburner.com/God321 and here is the original rss link http://podcast.den.liquidcompass.net/mgt/podcast/podcast.php?encoder_id=96&event _id=765 Any ideas? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks!

Your episodes have no playable media. Each episode should include an 'enclosure' tag containing the URL or an mp3, m4a, m4v or mov file. You don't have any enclosure tags, only a link to something with a php extension.
This page may help you: it gives some information about creating a podcast and includes a sample basic feed:

  • ITunes says "the feed has no episodes", despite being a validated feed.

    I am trying to post the following:
    http://www.thestreamguide.com/xml.php?channelid=128
    which is dynamically created by a website I host. This was never a problem in the past - iTunes always accepted submissions without complaint. In fact, there are a number of podcasts created by this site already on iTunes!
    When I open it directly in iTunes ('Subscribe to a podcast'), it works like a charm.
    It also validated perfectly via feedvalidator.org. Does anyone have any ideas what I could missing here?

    Got it (I think/hope)!!! Each one of your items has <itunes:block>yes</itunes:block> which means that iTunes won't see it (see http://www.feedforall.com/itune-tutorial-tags.htm#block). Either take it out or change it to no in the original feed, and see what happens.
    (I'd still advise not using periods in your file names - it might work with iTunes but other podcatchers may have a problem.)
    Let us know what happens,
    Greg

  • "this feed has no episodes" error when submitting to iTunes

    Hey there,
    This is probably a simple fix but I can't seem to figure it out as I am very new to this. My link is here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/VolumizePodcast
    When I submit this link to iTunes it says "this feed has no episodes"
    Any ideas?

    Firstly, your feed is all on one line with no line breaks: this makes it very difficult to read. I was able to get round this by automatically inserting a line break after every >, but it would be better to write the feed with breaks. It doesn't affect the validity, but it makes it much easier to troubleshoot.
    Episodes are contained within the <item> and </item> tags: there are two such tags in your feed. For iTunes the actual media file is references within the <enclosure> tag within the <item> tag. Your second <item> has no enclosure tag at all. The first has a tag:
    <enclosure url="http://djaaronjoseph.adej.net/volumize_podcast.xml" length="1997" type="application/xml" />
    but as you see it is referencing another feed file, so iTunes will not see it as an episode.
    The feed it references does contain an enclosure tag with a media file, though the name of the file contains spaces (replaced with %20 in the feed) which it shouldn't. It validates at http://www.feedvalidator.org but does not contain an iTunes category tag. The feed you listed in your post does not validate.
    If you submit the feed at http://djaaronjoseph.adej.net/volumize_podcast.xml to iTunes it will probably be accepted, but you need to do more work on it first.
    You might care to look at this page, which gives a sample feed and a basic description of how to set up a podcast:
    http://www.wilmut.org.uk/pc
    and also Apple's rather more detailed tech note:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/whatson/podcasts/specs.html
    I might add that Feedburner is notorious for writing messy feeds, and that you would always do better to submit a feed directly to iTunes rather than letting Feedburner do it.

  • Problem uloading podcast to iTunes: "this feed has no episodes"

    Hey guys,
    I have been trying to upload my podcast to iTunes.
    The RSS feed of the show is this: http://syn.org.au/not_used/2662
    When I entered this into the iTunes page it said "this feed has no episodes."
    So I went to the website www.feedburner.com and followed the instructions.
    They gave me a new feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/org/topfiveblank
    When I entered this the same message appeared.
    What should I do?

    If I re-uploaded the episodes to the original RSS feed without the spaces would the feed be recognised by iTunes?
    No, because the feed is not formatted as a podcast feed (though it's a start!). You have to construct a feed which complies to the format demonstrated in the page I linked to, or use a podcast creation program or service to construct the feed for you.
    I can't advise on hosting service. Be careful with free ones: they have to get their money somehow and it often involves adverts being added. Media files hosted this way sometimes turn up in web pages offering playing or download, and this won't work: the hosting has to offer unencumbered direct access to the feed and media files.

  • Itunes says this computer has been previously synced

    I am running Snow Leopard and have Itunes 10.6.3 and IOS 5.1.1 Iphone 4, yesterday I plugged in my phone and itunes poped up and says" this computer has been previously synced with an Iphone  or other iOS device" this is my personal computer and no one has synced it  and I lasted syned my phone August 23th.
    Its now asking me to setup a new phone or restore from the August 23rd , I tried restarting but nothing happened so I resorted  to clicking restore from last back up and after 20 min of restoring it still shows setup as new phone or restore ( I tried it twice) after I plug in my phone
    any idea guys and any help is appreciated

    I just updated to 10.7 and its still showing restore or set up as new...
    any idea?

  • "This feed has no episodes", but feed is 100% valid.

    I'm trying to help a voluntary grou submit their podcast to iTunes.
    The original XML was a mess, the system they inherited is unsupported now (to answer all the obvious upcoming questions!).
    So, I rewrote and tidied the XML, it is 100% valid according to every feed validation thing I can find, and it plays fine in everything else.
    But iTunes and iTunes store doesn't seem to like it, because the audio is served from a directory, eg:
    http://www.essexinfo.net/wickfordtn/assets/audio/weekly-news-side1
    and not
    http://www.essexinfo.net/wickfordtn/assets/audio/weekly-news-side1/something.mp3
    The filetype is being served correctly, as you can see from http://web-sniffer.net/
    Content-Type: audio/mpeg
    Content-Length: 5309578
    So the question is - how to get this into iTunes? Until they can get their server sorted, the only thing I could think would be to write the xml as a pointer to my own server, put an htaccess redirect in their, to make it think it's a proper filename.
    The thing is, this is all voluntary, and I don't really want to be jumping through those kind of hoops if I can at all avoid it.
    Thanks!

    Your feed has no media files referenced. These need to be in an 'enclosure' tag within the 'item'...'/item' tags which define each episode. With no media files referenced iTunes will not accept your podcast nor display it on manual subscription.
    As you are using Feedburner, either you are writing a feed yourself and submitting it to Feedburner, or you are submitting information to Feedburner and having it write the feed. In the latter case you need to add some media files according to their instructions. In the former case you may find this page helpful as it shows you a basic feed so you can see what it should look like (it's for audio but the general principle is the same).

  • My feed has no episodes? How can I fix this?

    I use feedburner to make the podcasts. And when I attempt to upload to itunes it tells me my feed has no episodes.
    I no nothing about html or xml.  I just use the directions that feedburner gives to make the podcasts.  My link that was generated is http://feeds.feedburner.com/RebelKrownRadio

    Your media file (the .mp3 file) is hosted on Google Drive. The URL begins with https, which indicates an encrypted connection, and the iTunes Store cannot handle these, so you need it to begin with http.
    Even so, when I tried to play it in a browser (where https would be OK) it didn't play, and when I subscribed to the feed in iTunes it complained that the file 'needed authorisation' - so you seem to have placed it where your login is required to access it.
    I don't know anything about Google Drive, but does it in fact provide website hosting? I rather doubt it's a good place to host your media, but if you are going to do this you need to make sure it's publicly accessible and uses http.
    Also, it won't be accepted if the server does not handle 'byte range requests'  - the method used by iPhones - so once you've got the access sorted out, and before you try submitting it again, you could if you like post here again and I'll run a check for byte range request handling (which isn't 100% authoritative but at least would give some idea).
    When you do resbumit, be prepared to be told it's already been submitted - this is a bug in the process, to get round which you would need to change the title slightly.

  • My iphone 5 doesn't sync with itunes on my pc. it says this computer has  previously been synced to another io6 device or iphone? please help what to do?

    My iphone 5 doesn't sync with itunes on my pc. it says this computer has  previously been synced to another io6 device or iphone? please help what to do?

    The error message you're seeing is likely the other way around -- i.e. something like "This iPhone has previously been synced with a different computer".   There's no problem syncing multiple iOS devices to the same computer.
    However, the reverse is not true for the iPhone --  you cannot connect an iPhone to another computer without it being erased, even if you manually manage music and video.  So, it sounds like you've been syncing your iPhone to a different computer?
    Also, 5.1 (not 5.0.1) is the latest iOS.

  • HT5622 Hi, I can't use my apple ID even when down loading free apps there's a prompt saying this Id has not been use in iTunes . What do I need to accomplish? Thanks

    Hi, why can't I use my apple ID even downloading free apps there's a prompt message saying " this ID has not been use to iTunes" what should i do?

    That usually means that your payment information is incomplete. Even if you want to download free apps, unless you were able to select "None" as your payment option when you created the ID, you still have to enter a credit card.
    There is a very specific way that you have to create an Apple ID if you don't want to use a credit card and I am guessing that is what you wanted to do originally, but you didn't do it correctly. The instructions are in this kb article.

  • I used to have a podcast that had been accepted on Itunes, but my I began to have problems with my host, so I changed host and created a new podcast, and I submitted my new podcast, Apple refused, and now says the feed has already been submitted??

    I used to have a podcast that had been accepted on Itunes, but my I began to have problems with my host, so I changed host and created a new podcast, and I submitted my new podcast, Apple refused, and now says the feed has already been submitted? Maybe Itunes thought that I was someone trying to copy my old podcast because I kept the same name, I tried to change the names but it looks like I'm on a blocked list...

    There is a procedure for changing the feed URL for a podcast, which it seems you haven't followed: you have to add a special tag to the old feed - just submitting a new feed will have exactly the effect you describe. The proper method is described here:

  • Podcast Help! "The Feed has no Episodes" (Using Feeder)

    Hey All!
    I have seen this topic posted before but no within a user using the feeder software. I created a feed and podcast as per the manual but when I submit the URL (ttp://www.deadlyrhythms.com/podcasts/DnBForumTest.xml) i get the "The Feed has no Episodes"
    any ideas what I need to do?
    And does anyone know if I can create "chapters" in feeder? - Thanks alot!
    Regards, Mark

    http://www.deadlyrhythms.com/podcasts/DnBForumTest.xml
    In NetNewsWire Lite this feed shows one test posting - a blog-type page, not a podcast episode directly.
    Your XML file gives this as the URL for your audio file:
    http://www.deadlyrhythms.com/YStrict(FinishedBouncew.mp3
    Note the open bracket which should presumably be a slash.
    Have a look at this page for advice about podcasts:

  • Error: "The feed has no episodes" when submitting podcast

    I keep getting the error " The feed has no episodes" when I try to submit my podcast. I know the xml is properly formatted because I'm not getting any errors when viewing it in a browser. I assume I must be missing some tag that is required my iTunes. Can anyone help me figure this out? See code below. I can get the podcast to show up in my playlist but there are no episodes associated with it there either.
