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.

Did you try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple then let go? Did you try to restore as new in iTunes on your computer?

Podcast Image is Not Updating for over Two Weeks
Hi. I use Wordpress - > Feedburner - > iTunes Store and my designated podcast image has not been updated in the Store for over two weeks. However I will note that on the Apple Podcast App, and in the iTunes Podcasting Section in my iTunes Library, the image updated almost immediately. It's only in the store that it's a problem, plus, that is the URL we use to share on Social Media. So it's code red!
I have been following all the threads, and understand that sometimes the store gets "stuck," but we are reaching hair-pulling-out-of-our-skulls mode, considering our large audience-base and the regularity with which we share the podcast on Social Media.
The outdated image, which iTunes Store is still displaying, does not exist anywhere on or offline at all. It is behaving as a ghost, not the scary kind the really f*cking annoying kind. I have no idea how in the world the store is still accessing it. It is 2014, and I simply cannot believe that Apple Technology would be this sluggish, and so I'm beginning to suspect I've messed something up somewhere, and really I'm at a loss and I can't keep telling my superiors that it's someone else's fault and HELP HELP HELP
anyway (clears throat)
Here is the wordpress RSS: http://stephenmansfield.tv/category/podcast/feed/
Here is the Feedburner RSS: http://feeds.feedburner.com/MansfieldPodcast
Here is the correct media URL I entered in "SmartCast -> Podcast Image Location" on Feedburner over two weeks ago:
http://stephenmansfield.tv/wp-content/uploads/smp-icon-2013-1400x1400.jpg
Here is our iTunes Podcast URL which is magically (read stupidly) displaying a non-existent jpg file as our image:

ebooks | podcasting | music | photosAfter over 8 weeks, I got my image updated. I don't know exactly what did it. First I followed Roger's advice and changing the file name to a name that had never been used before. The fact that I reset back to an earlier image, thus a file name that had already been used, maybe confused it a little bit. So I changed the file name and re-uploaded. I also compressed the file size down a notch to make it smaller.
Finally, I bugged Apple tech support on the phone to no end (sorry sir, we don't know how to fix this, sorry sir, we don't really understand podcasting) until they gave me this email adress, and there, they told me they reset the feed:
Podcasts at apple .com
It is 2014, and updating a dedicated Podcast image should not be this hard. They need to totally revamp their system. I think the more we complain about this on the forums, the quicker this will happen.
This is the only podcast directory that has this outdated problem. Unfortunately, it's also the most important podcast directory.

Why has my ipad 2 stopped receiving emails for over a month when I have not changed any settings
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Try:

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router

- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

maybe this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Why has it been so long since any updates to OS 10.6? My last update was over two months ago.
why has it been so long since any updates to OS 10.6? My last update was in June. - Steve
Since my previous message, there has been a Java update for Snow Leopard (at the same time as one for Lion and Mountain Lion), and its main purpose was to fix security issues. That at least shows Apple has not completely stopped doing Snow Leopard updates.
We still don't know what is happening with general security updates for Snow Leopard, and won't until Lion gets its next general security update, or if there is a minor version update for Lion which includes security fixes.
The one obvious missing update so far is Safari: when Safari 6 was released for Lion, it included security fixes, but there has been no corresponding Safari update for Snow Leopard. That suggests either a delay in supplying a Snow Leopard update for Snow Leopard, or that Snow Leopard updates are starting to wind down. -
Ive tried to update all my applications from my computer to my iphone4 and while my phone was trying to sync them. I have now an apple icon displayed on my phone and it has 'frozen up'. tried turning on and off but apple icon still remains. tried shutting down computer aswell as removing the Micro-Sim on my phone and still no change.. what is going on?
Plug in with Wall Charger and Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. Usually up to 20 seconds of holding both buttons.
If still problems and you decide to Restore the iPhone Firware. Then open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer. Then hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode. Restore the Firware. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. -
My Firefox Will Not Update from 3.5.8 to 3.6 on my MacBook Pro, please help?
The laptop is less than a year old, and I hadn't used Firefox since I got it. I'm returning to Firefox now, but it's version 3.5.8 and I want 3.6. I check for software updates, but no FF update is offered. I try to download 3.6 from the Mozilla site, and all goes well until the end, when I get window with the message "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some items." Frustrating!!! Please help me update to 3.6. It shouldn't be this hard, should it?
Thanks from DustieIt sounds like you have an iphone 3g, which will only go to 4.2.1

My church podcast hasn't updated in over a month
, I am the media director and recently took over uploads. We noticed this week that the podcast https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/rivergate-church-bryan-texas/id434691249 hasn't updated since dec 2. I checked the RSS feed and it is working flawlessly, was able to download all episodes they just havent been updating on itunes. I load 1 new episode every week.
Yes, there is a feed at that address, but if you want to move the Store to using a different feed there is a specific method for doing it, involving adding a tag to the old feed. The exact method is described here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/podcast.html#move
So you will need to reinstate the feed at the old address and add the tag. If you can't do that you will have to email podcasts 'at' appple.com and ask them to move the Store to using the new feed (give the the Store URL and both feed URLs). -
Hey! I have had an Ipod touch for about 7 years and it has always worked! but for some reason i plugged it into my laptop and my computer is recognizing that it is plugged in but my itunes isnt what do I do?
See

- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

i have been trying to download and intsall the latest version of i tunes, however i tunes will not install because quicktime is not up to date. I have downloaded the version of the proper quicktime update but it will not install. i need suggestions on how to fix this. this is my first mac its an old ibook g4, and i have limited computer knowledge.
Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Which exact iBook model is it?
You can choose from this list:
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/index-ibook.html
Which version of the operating system is it running now? (It is impossible for an iBook G4 to run Mac OS X 10.0.)
How much RAM is installed?
What kind of optical drive does it have? (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, Combo, or SuperDrive?) -
I need help
Thanks for a reply
The cable that I'm using came with my 5th gen nano. The 6th gen Ipod shows that it's connected but the computer doesn't see it, so I don't think that it's the cable.
I did try this before when looking at the troubleshooting guide and nothing happens. It just resets and then the Ipod screen tells me that it's connected to the computer. It still is unseen by Itunes and no where to be found in my computer.
I don't have another computer to plug it into at the moment but I may be able to visit a friend that owns a decent PC in a few days. If that doesn't work out I will be getting a new lap top in a week and I'm hoping that it will work on that, but it won't be a Mac. So, let's say it works when I plug it into one of these computers, should I reset my Ipod from there or is there something else I should do? -

My Firefox 6.02 has not updated to 7 automatically yet?
My Firefox has not updated itself yet. I am using Firefox 6.0.2 and I rely on Firefox to automatically update b/c I am usually oblivious to software updates. I know about the Help~~~>about. But I rather not use that, I want Firefox to do it itself so I don't have to worry about being secure in the future.
Is Firefox 7 in the update channel or is there some other reason why firefox has not updated itself? I checked the options everything check out in terms of the options for automatic updates being checked.Firefox 7.0 had a bug affecting a number of people so its updates were put on hold temporarily. A version 7.0.1 will be released soon for you to update to.

All of a sudden my Iphone 4 shut off amd will not TURN ON AT ALL. Ive tried everything from holding the buttons to plugging in the usb to a computer and opening my Itunes. I cant get it to turn on...Please anythoughts???
<E-mail Edited by Host>It was a very bad idea to post your email address where millions of people will see it. Expect your spam to increase exponentially, as well as the phishing attempts. It would probably be a good idea to change your password to a really strong one, and, as you have gmail, look into Google's two factor authentication.
