ITunes search can't find my show by my keywords

I'm the maker of Machigai Podcast, which is available in iTunes. I use WordPress 3.4.2 and Blubrry PowerPress 4.0.4 to publish the show. I cannot figure out why iTunes cannot find my podcast when searching on any keywords, except "Machigai". It seems that iTunes is not finding the information I've entered in the "iTunes" tab of the Blubrry PowerPress Settings.
Looking at my feed itself in the browser, I see that, rather than displaying my iTunes program subtitle or summary, it instead shows the "tagline" from the WordPress general settings! Still, the text from the iTunes Program Summary does display in iTunes -- but an iTunes search for words that appear in that summary does NOT bring up my show, nor does a search for any of my "iTunes Program Keywords".
It's worth noting that much of this text is in Japanese. I had found with Feed Validator that there was an encoding problem with the feed, but I fixed that problem several days ago, and the search problem persists. (INCLUDING for Keywords that are IN ENGLISH)
I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions?

I tried searching on your first keyword, 英会話 , and it brought up a large number of podcasts. Of course I don't know what this word is, but it appears to be a common one. Certainly the English keywords are going to appear in many podcasts so you are competing with them to appear in the results. (This is quite apart from the fact that the keyword search can be unreliable.)
In iTunes the 'itunes:subtitle' and 'itunes:summary' appear to be showing correctly. When you view the feed in a browser these tags, which are specific to iTunes, do not show - what shows is the 'description' tag and again this is showing as expected.
For reference, your feed is at http://www.machigai.com/wordpress/?feed=podcast - please when you have a question always post your iTunes Store page URL and that of your feed, to save detective work.

Just downloaded the latest version of iTunes. Can't find "Power Search" anymore to locate specific songs or artists? Using "Browse" takes waaay too long. Any suggestions?

Sometimes simply restarting your iTunes, the computer and the iPad is all that it takes to correct an issue like this so try that. Quit iTunes, reboot your computer, and restart the iPad. Then try the sync again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

A deleted podcast is still somewhere in itunes? can't find it?

I thought I had deleted a particular podcast but I noticed that this one kept syncing to my ipod and showed up on the apple tv. When I went to the folder through finder I found this podcast was still on my system although I saw it nowhere in itunes. I deleted the file manually.
Now, when I sync my ipod, I receive the message that this particular podcast could not be found to be synced. I've done a search by name through itunes and can't find any reference to this now deleted podcast or why it's attempting to sync it.
I've repaired permissions just for kicks. I've re-booted for kicks. Nothing helps.
I'm stumped. Any ideas?
Thanks.

more info...I have a smart playlist that syncs certain podcasts that I've put a star next to. I did find a reference to this podcast in the smart playlist which means it is noted with a star. But, when I go to the podcast directory, it is nowhere to be found. I can't delete the reference in the smart playlist b/c it's a smart playlist.

Can't find TV shows in 7.6.2.9

I can't find TV Shows in this newest version of iTunes in the Store, under Power Search, Genre, etc. I'm using Windows Vista. Anyone else having this problem?

Have you confirmed that iTunes is still set for one of the countries that has TV shows? Check the My Store setting at the bottom of the main iTunes Store window.

I have an ipod touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop. Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login. I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't. How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?

It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty. You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod. If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:

When I try to import songs from a CD into iTunes it can't find the titles online. This wasn't a problem previously, now it is. There is nothing wrong with my internet. Any solutions? Help says try again later but no luck there.

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

I had to change my settings back to factory settings. Now I cannot get games because it is telling me I need iOS 4.5. I went on my pc and into iTunes I can not find download for ios

I had to change my settings back to factory settings. Now if I try to get a game or an app it tells me I need iOS at least 4.5. I hooked up to my pc and went to iTunes but can not find a download for any iOS. It just gives info on all they offer. Any help ????

To update to the current version (which is the only version 'signed' by Apple). connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases - you may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.

Exchange 2010 Outlook search can not find messages older than 1 year

Hello,
I have an exchange 2010 sp2 server. One of my users complains that Outlook search can not find any message older than 1 year. He have all his 5 year mails in the mailbox, but looks like search engine cant recognise them :(
Any thoughts? thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please verify that indexing is complete in Outlook:
1. In Outlook, click in the Search box.
2. Click the Search tab, click Search Tools, and then click Indexing Status.
3. When the Indexing Status dialog appears, you should see the following:
Outlook has finished indexing all of your items.
0 items remaining to be indexed.
Besides, please use the Search-Mailbox cmdlet to check if you can get messages older than one year in this user mailbox.
Best regards,
Belinda

After upgrading the itunes, I can not find my ipad when it connects to the PC

After upgrading the itunes, I can not find my ipad when it connects to the PC
Before that, I can see an botton said my ipad. And then I can click it to operate my ipad

Try this
Go into the control panel. Add/remove programs. Uninstall iTunes, Apple mobile device service, apple application support. Then go out and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
There seems to be a glitch with a recent update and one way to overcome it is to just start over. If that doesn't work there are more in depth things you can do.

If you did not configure FindmyIPod on it, I'm afraid you are out of luck. Report the theft to the local authorities and change the passwords to any and all accounts you have may used/accessed or configured on the iPod Touch.

I updated my Ipad to IOS 5 but now my Ipad is blank. I backed up to Itunes but can't find my back up info.

Yes, there are two utilities that I use to perform this task, SuperCrazyAwesome’s iPhone Backup Extractor which is a free utility, and addPod’s Juice Phone, also free. Neither solution will work if you have encrypted your backup files. Both allow you to access the backed up data as if the iPhone was connected to your Mac.
