Latest episode not showing up in "unplayed" for anyone

Hey there!
When I released an episode of my podcast I noticed that the number of listeners where relatively low. Then I noticed that the episode didn't show up as "Unplayed" in the Podcaster app and instead the episode was only to be found in the "Feed"-tab. Thus, no notification for the new episode showed up for my listeners, making them rather unaware of a new episode being released. I've examined the issue on several devices and it seems to be the same all over.
What is wrong?
Thank you!

I can only check it in iTunes on a Mac: there, everything appears to be working normally. I can see nothing in the feed which might cause this - there are some errors picked up in the FeedValidator report which you might want to look into, though none of them is serious: most are irrelevant to iTunes, the only issue being the presence of HTML coding in 'itunes:summary' tags - iTunes will show the code, not render it:
...Johann Gudmundsson och Pablo [&#8230;]</itunes:summary>
& is OK (you shouldn't have an ampersand by itself) but #8230 is an ellipsis and iTunes will not handle this - you should just replace it with three full stops...
None of this is likely to affect the issue you are seeing. I'm afraid I can't help further; you could try asking in the iPhone forum where someone with one of these devices may be able to check and advise.

Podcasts App/Stations not showing correct played/unplayed status

Hi,
there is an issue with the played/unplayed status of podcasts in the iOS Podcasts app (in iTunes everything is shown correctly, though).
When I sync new podcasts to the Podcasts app via iTunes, the majority of podcasts are not showing up as unplayed in the stations I have created. It seems that the sync from iTunes is not doing something like a "refresh" of this status on the iOS device after a sync has completed.
To fix this, I currently go into the edit section of each station and de-activate the switch for showing only unplayed and activate it right away again (without leaving that screen in the meantime). After these two clicks, I confirm and leave the edit screen. Now everything is showing up correctly with the unplayed status.
Please fix this, Apple.
Thanks

Vendor Ref No. does not show in Journal Entry for AP Credit

AP Invoice journals show the vendor reference number in field Ref 2. However, when creating an AP Credit memo, the vendor reference number does not show in the journal for the credit memo, instead the field Ref 2 is used for the base document number.
I have two clients who have pointed out that they would expect to see the vendor ref number in the Ref 2 field in the journal when an AP Credit is created, as this is the functionality for Goods Receipts and AP Invoices.
Both clients are currently manually updating the Ref 2 field in the journal for AP Credit, so that in the BP account transactions view they can sort field Ref2 by vendor reference number.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a work around for this?
Thanks,
Lianne Plant

HT1727 help how do i make a purchased song my ring tone, it;s not showing on my list for ringtones

help how do i make a purchased song my ring tone, it's not showing on my list for ringtones

This song was purchased from the iTunes Store?
If so, you can't create a ringtone from music that was purchased from the iTunes store, but if there is a ringtone available for purchase and download at the iTunes Store with this song, you need to do that.
For music in your iTunes library on your computer that was not purchased from the iTunes store, there are a number of ways to create a ringtone with such music. With a Mac, there is an inexpensive or free app avaiable via Apple's online App Store named Ringer. Ringer has access to all music and sound files in your iTunes library that was not downloaded from the iTunes Store for creating your chosen segment of the song to be used for the ringtone. The app places the created ringtone in your iTunes library under Tones for transfer to your iPhone when syncing.
Creating ringtones on a Mac can also be done with GarageBand, and there is a manual way of doing this with iTunes.

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your Mac? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the Mac?

Old podcast episodes not showing?

For some reason, my podcast 'Growth Everywhere' has the latest episodes showing but I can't see the old ones.
My feedburner feed is here:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/GrowthEverywhere
^-- I can see that it only goes up to a certain point in feedburner and my old posts are missing. Not sure what to do here.

One of the quickest solutions you could make would be to switch over feedburner to point to your libsyn feed as your source feed. This would give you the most reliable source feed and ellimante issue you might be getting from wordpress managed feeds - which are the responsible for the biggest number of issues on the iTunes forums. I will follow up with you via email on more info.

New episodes not showing up in iTunes

I have added a new episode (item) to my feed and pinged iTunes and the new episode will not show up. The feed was validated and is in the proper format.
When people subscribe, the episode is available and workign fine.
Any way idea on how to get the episode to show up in the listing?
http://advisor.morningstar.com/rssdata/xml/getchoatepodcastdata.xml

Yeah. I checked on this yesterday and it seems to be broken still. I've starred at the code for quite a while and for the life of me can't see what's wrong.
My only other theories are:
1) it for whatever reason doesn't like the formating, no line breaks, just one long string...which in theory shouldn't make a difference...but this is Apple we're dealing with so who knows.
2) doing a search for Morningstar, brings up several podcasts...the one we're dealing with here "Morningstar Advisor" and another similarly named "MorningstarAdvisor". Both seem to have different content. Not sure if iTunes might be confused into thinking that this is a duplicate feed and is no longer updating it.

Podcast episodes not showing up in iTS

We have recently changed our URL. We were able to successfully publish episode 4 with the redirect but for some reason episode 5 never showed up. episode6 is now up and we need these to show up in the store.
FEED URL:
http://www.texastribune.org/feeds/podcasts/the-tribcast/
subscriptions are updating just fine. Episode 5 was updated last week. I've manually pinged the server.

Firstly, to clarify the situation with iTunes. When you submit a podcast feed URL to iTunes it caches the feed (updating it periodically) and displays the contents in the Store page. When you click 'Subscribe', the Store directs the iTunes application to the feed - this is now a direct connection and doesn't involve the Store (you could say the Store acts as an agent). The same result can be obtained by subscribing manually from the 'Advanced' menu.
It's possible to get into a situation where the iTunes application can read a feed but the Store can't - often this is caused by a redirect script which the application and browsers can understand but the Store doesn't, so when people change the feed to one using this the subscriptions will update but the Store page stays with the cached version of the old feed.
Something like this may have happened here. Your feed URL is given as
http://www.texastribune.org/feeds/podcasts/the-tribcast/
The slash on the end of a URL usually means that what precedes it is a folder name, and that the file which is brought up is called index.html which browsers will display automatically in this situation. In your case, if one control-clicks on the URL and downloads the file you get a text file called the-tribcast.rss. This file is valid in itself -the actual XML seems to be OK - but if you open the URL in FireFox and choose 'Page Source' from the 'View' menu it displays the feed as pure text without colouring the tags (which it would normally do with an XML file).
If you open the downloaded feed in FireFox it displays the contents but warns 'This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it'.
All this means that although FireFox and the iTunes application are able to recognize the feed as a feed and parse it correctly, the iTunes Store isn't doing so. Possibly the incomplete URL is confusing it - do you have some sort of redirect in place which takes browsers to the actual file, but which the Store cannot understand? Otherwise possibly the server is telling the Store that the file is text, rather than XML, though normally in this case FeedValidator would pick this up, which it doesn't.
Whatever the cause, you now have a Catch-22 situation: the Store isn't reading your feed, and so isn't updating; and you cannot change the Store to a new feed because to do so requires it to be able to read the existing feed.
Unless you can modify the feed or the way the server presents it without affecting the URL which the Store is looking for you have two not very satisfactory options:
1. You can abandon this feed, and submit a completely new feed to the Store. You will need to change the name of the podcast slightly or you will be told it already exists. If you do this you should make sure that the feed URL is a complete one including the actual filename. It's probably better to use the extension .xml rather than .rss (although the latter should work).
2. You can get the Store to remove the feed and then resubmit with the same title. (You should still use a new and complete feed URL). The removal process is detailed here:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#removing
Expect the process to take some days. A previous poster with a similar problem was initially told just to use the 'block' tag but this is no good to you as iTunes isn't reading the feed, but he did eventually get a manual removal and if you don't you will need to pursue it.

Single Podcast Episode Not Showing up in iTunes

The second episode of the ExactTarget Developer Podast is not showing up. This was originally related to a bad link which was subsequently fixed. Any idea of what is happening or how it can be fixed?
Podcast: ExactTarget Developer Podcast
Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/ExactTargetDeveloperPodcast

The media file URL for the missing episode has two spaces after the '.mp3' and before the double quotes; it seems possible that this is causing iTunes to be unable to read the URL.

Libsyn hosted podcast episodes not showing up.

I understand there may be a glitch happening but I've waited over a week now and it hasn't sorted itself out yet. My feed is fine in other podcast catchers but the episodes don't show in iTunes. Thanks for any help, guys.
Thank you!
-Mike
Podcast info below:
Your podcast, located at http://getoffmypodcast.libsyn.com/rss, has been approved. You should expect to see it on the iTunes Store within the next few hours. When it's available, you will be able to access it with the URL below.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/get-off-my-podcast-harrison/id873113856
You will be able to find your podcast through a search on the iTunes Store within the next two days.

Your feed works OK when subscribing in iTunes, but if you look at the iTunes Store in iTunes (as opposed to the web page version) you will see that it says '2 items' but is not showing any. This is a long-standing intermittent bug in the Store, not a problem with your feed, and I'm afraid there isn't anything you can do about it. It will probably sort itself out in a few days.

Can't delete TV episode, not showing in itunes

A TV episode failed to complete downloading and is stuck in the TV episode list and I can't delete it. It's not showing up in itunes either to delete it from there. Also, I can't retry downloading it because it says "Download error. Tap to continue" or whatever and when I tap it it just hangs at preparing to download. It's been that way for weeks. Is there anyway to manually delete it from the phone itself?

Same issue. The error says not enough space for me -- go to settings to alter. Takes me to storage -- and the video is not listed as using storage!
I have 8 episodes stuck there -- some even play -- but none will swipe to delete. To test I did swipe to delete a video podcast -- no problem. Just my TV Shows seem to be permanent fixtures.
Connected to the computer to see what ITunes showed as installed TV Shows on the device -- nothing there...!!!

Latest episode not appearing

Hi all.
My podcast https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-recycle-bin/id734598971?mt=2 is not showing the most recent episode.
I know there are a few problems with the feed (inexperience combined with tumblr i'm afraid), but I can't work out why the episode dated march 12 hasn't shown up yet.
Any ideas?

It appears for me:

Image Icon not showing in "get info" for OS 10.9.4

     I now have PS CC 2014 and the image icons are showing the "generic" .jpg and .psd files in the "get info" finder window, but on my desktop the images are showing their
     proper image icon.
     I was previously using PS CS 5 and the icons are showing up in the "get info" window, but with PS CC 2014 these icons are showing up as generic.
     To be clear the images I saved using PS CS 5 are showing the icons vs. the images I saved in CC 2014 where the icons are not showing in the "get info" window.
     I've compared preference settings with PS 2014 and PS 5 but their basically about the same.
     I'm including 2 images so you can see what I'm explaining. IMG_1627 is a PS CC2014 created image and Arturo is a PS 5 image.
     I did read about other PS users having similar issues but it looked to be unresolved.
     You may think what's the big deal, but I use these image icons to label my folders. A "trick" I've doing for over decade which helps keep my folders visually on track for me.
     Is anyone out there able to solve this issue??

I do on occasion get jpgs and pngs that won't render a thumbnail or preview in MacOS. I have 10.9.5
I don't have this problem, although I just have CC and CC 2014 on my Macbook.
I would open those up in Preview.app and try a Save As... and I would get the thumbnail and thumbnail preview back.
Not really the best idea,but you can see if it helps.
These are my file saving options, perhaps there is something there you can try.

<title>"Causes of the Civil War" (Session 1), February 12, 2005</title>
<description>Few other questions in American history have generated more controversy than "What Caused the Civil War?" That conflict preserved the United States as one nation, indivisible and abolished the institution of slavery that for more than four score years had made a mockery of American claims to stand as a republic of liberty, a beacon of freedom for oppressed peoples in the Old Word. But these achievements came at the great cost of more than 629,000 lives and vast destruction of property that left large parts of the South a wasteland. Could this terrible war have been avoided? Who was responsible for the events that led to war? Could the positive results of the war (Union and Freedom) have been achieved without war? How have participants in the war and historians answered these questions over the five generations since the war ended? James M. McPherson is the George Henry Davis '86 Professor of History at Princeton University and is widely acclaimed as the leading historian of the Civil War. He is the author of Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era, which won the Pulitzer Prize in history in 1989, as well as many other books on Lincoln and the Civil War era. This is the first in a two-part series.</description>
