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:

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.

I have itunes version 8.2 and would like to avoid downloading a newer version. The iTunes Store will not leave the page for iTunes 10. How do I fix this?

The iTunes store will not leave the page for downloading iTunes 10. I just deleted iTunes 10 because of errors to purposely go back to version 8.2. Now I would like to keep 8.2 and not upgrade. How do I get this page to go away, or just keep 8.2? I would like to only have a version before 9.0. Please help!

Itunes Store does not show lastest podcast but it downloaded

So i am pretty much and stuck on this issue. I have seen a couple of other post but no answers. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
The issue is the Itunes store does not show the last episode by it can still be downloaded and played.
The latest episode the Itunes store shows is 10/17/10 however it has been updated weekly.
Link to Itunes:

I have used a couple of feed validaters and nothing seems wrong to me. Can anyone find an issue i have not looked at? Should i just try to contact Apple Support?
Thanks,
Bob

The iTunes Store caches the feed and checks periodically to see if it's been updated, so there is a delay before new episodes appear: however it's usually around 2 days, not almost a month. When subscribing the iTunes application reads the feed directly, so there is no delay.
Something is preventing the Store from updating the feed. This can happen if there is some oddity in the feed which throws the Store but not the application - usually a strange character of some sort. I looked for something like that in the first episode not to appear in the Store, but there is nothing odd there: you've used dots in the filename of your mp3 file and this isn't a good idea, but in fact doesn't seem to be causing a problem since some earlier episodes do the same thing. Ideally you shouldn't use dots in a URL.
The filename for the episode of 28 November includes the code %3A - this is the code for a colon - you definitely shouldn't have a colon in a filename. However since this episode comes later than several others which haven't appeared it may not be fatal - but it's not a good idea.
The other oddity is that you have two 'title' tags in the top section of your feed, both empty. You did have a title once, as it shows in the Store, but you've removed it at some point so that the feed is not titled. I don't know whether this is sufficient to prevent the Store from updating, but you should definitely replace the title - I see you are using Podcast Maker, so you need to enter the title there and republish - and see whether that helps.

My podcast has not updated in over two months. Ive tried everything to get it working. Please Help

My feed has not updated in the store for over two months. I now have three new episodes in there which are not showing up.
Everything works fine through itunes, i can see all episodes and my feed validates with the feed validator.
About 2 months ago my artwork dissappeared from the feed and since then it has never updated again.
Hope someone can help.

Hi Roger, just to update you on the situation.
I did some more digging into the problem im having and it was suggested that i tried re-submitting the feed to the store.
On doing so i got the error message that my hosting does not have byte-range support which it seems a lot of people are having problems with. Having read further it seems apple introduced these changes around the time my podcast stopped updating which seems to tie into how the issue started.
So i created a test feed with one episode and a link to a media file from a working podcast and still it would not submit, i was getting the 'We have difficulty reading this feed. Connection Reset error'
Luckily i have another hosting provider so i uploaded the exact same test feed and the feed got accepted.
So i have come to the conclusion that my host does not have byte-range support but also it seems this is stopping it reading the actual .xml file as well as the .mp3 content which from reading other posts should not happen.
So im in the process of uploading the latest episode to my host that has byte-range support enabled and im going to update my current feed with one episode and a link to the .mp3 file on the server with byte-range support enabled and im hoping fingers crossed the feed updates.
Obviously i can set up a new feed on the server with byte-range support enabled but if my current feed fails to update at all im concerned i will never be able to update the feed again and therefore never be able to add the feed URL redirect code in order to keep my subscribers.
Thought id share this with you as it may help you in helping others having similar problems.

My iTunes Store will not update any apps

Everything in my iTunes Store works properly, except when trying to update an app. It is showing that I have multiple app updates but when I go to the update tab in the store it is a blank page.

Try this workaround
App Store>Purchased>Select "All"
Note: Look out for apps that have the word "Update"

ITunes store has not deleted old rental films

My husband has been trying to download a couple of movie rentals from the iTunes store onto our iPad. He keeps getting download errors saying that we don't have enough storage space, despite dumping almost everything we've got on it. We have NO movies or TV shows on it, and yet iTunes is showing 6Gb worth of video in the status bar. I investigated with iExplorer and can see two movies that we rented from the iTunes store and watched weeks and weeks ago. They are no longer accessible through the iPad and without iExplorer I would not have even known they were there.
I know I can re-set to factory settings, but if I do I will lose two rented movies that I don't have room to download. Any ideas how I can delete the old films to make room for new ones? Many thanks.

reset to factory settings and then sign in with ur apple id. u will be able to watch the currently rented movies.

HT1879 my genius recommendations in the Itunes store have not updated in months. Can we automatically reset them.

My genius recommendations have not updated in 3 months in the Itunes store so clearly they no longer care to sell music. Does anyone know of a manual way to update the recommendaions? Thx

Don't worry about it I've decided to move on and get and android phone instead. Your stuff may be very easy to use and this would be ok if it just worked but when it doesn't I want to be able to take control of my hardware and software to make the changes that I need to to get it to work the way I want.
Good-bye Apple

I can find my Podcast in the Itunes store but not in the Podcast list.

If I search for my podcast in the Itunes store it shows up. So, I click subscribe, and everything looks like its working. When I check the Podcast section of my library I don't see it. The link to my podcast is http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=358348024. The feed is http://www.rodsotr.com/RODSOTR/Podcast/rss.xml. I'm hoping the issue is just with the itunes on my computer. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rod

It works perfectly well for me: I can't suggest why it isn't for you. When you click the 'Subscribe' link in the Store page you should see a 'Downloads' item appear in the sidebar below 'Purchased' showing the progress of downloading the top episode, and above all that in the top section of the sidebar under 'Podcasts' you should see the podcast.
If you don't: try going to the 'Advanced' menu, choosing 'Subscribe to podcast' and entering the URL of your feed and see what happens.

Can't Search or Browse in Itunes Store; nothing happens. Tried everything for months!

Haven't been able to purchase I-Tunes music for months. When I go to I-Tunes Store, it won't let me Search or Browse music; nothing happens. It won't let me past a home page for I Tunes Store which contains advertising and a request to upgrade to the newest version, which I did. Some time ago I changed the authorization to a new e-mail address, but made sure it was properly authorized in I Tunes. Running Mozilla Firefox. Please help. Nothing works, nothing helps. Internet connection is fine.

I don't use the new iTunes but yours is the only post I have seen stating this issue. The only time I have seen similar behavior is if you try to do this with a
bad link ( ! ). Additionally make sure the item you wish to drag is checked.
Dragging does not move an item, it adds it and leaves the original in place.

ITunes 8.0 is able to open iTunes store but not update iPod...

I have an iPod touch and I recently installed new iTunes... Its able to connect to iTunes and download stuff but when I click on update button for my iPod (for updating to 2.1) it displays a message that iTunes cannot connect to internet...

I don't have an account so I can't try to log in but I can still get access to the store with iTunes 7.5.
iTunes 9.2.1 [http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1056] is still available and would run under Tiger. Since it is newer it might work under any changes they may have made.

ITunes store will not update my apps: "The network connection was reset."

Why can't I update my apps as usual? I suddenly keep getting the message "There was a problem downloading [name of application]. The network connection was reset."

De nada amigo.
