You need to change that in your RSS feed.

How can I edit author name in my podcast after publishing...now it shows "unknown"

How can I edit author name in my podcast after publishing...now it shows "unknown"...thanks a lot for help^^

The author's name is carried in the 'itunes:author' tag. You will need to enter it in the appropriate field in whatever program or online service you are using to make your podcast.

How can I Edit My Podcast? And why doesn't my new uploads show in iTunes?

My Rss feed is through soundcloud and I uploaded new files and they haven't appeared on my link in iTunes. Also, how can I edit my podcast page?

In fact your files do force a download - paste the URL into Safari's address bar and hit return - they will download rather than play inside the browser as they should. However they do play in the Store, so perhaps they've now instituted a workaround for that.
Your feed is at http://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/soundcloud:users:127918759/sounds.rss
There are four episodes, the latest being 25 February; all four appear in the Store and when subscribing.
If you want to amend the contents of the 'Description' column and the text you see when you click the 'i' next to it you need to amend the 'itunes:subtitle' and 'itunes:summary' tags respectively. The overall 'Description' which appears in the Store page above the episodes is carried in the 'itunes:summary' tag in the top section of the feed. If you want to amend these you will need to do so wherever you constructed the feed, presumably in Soundcloud. You cannot do so in iTunes itself, it simply reads what's in the feed.

How can I Edit Podcast Description?

How can I Edit Podcast Description?
Please help.

You don't say how you are making your podcast feed. I would tend to think from your question that you are not writing the feed yourself, but using either a program or one of the online services to do this. If this is tha case, you will need to look at their instructions: they should give you a place to enter the details.
If you are writing the feed by hand, then this page gives an example of how a feed should look:

Podcast episodes download to wrong folder. How can I move them?

Some of my downloaded podcast episodes seem to be going to incorrect folders.
For example, I subscribe to the Photoshop TV podcast. Some of the downloaded episodes go into the iTunes Music folder>Podcasts>Photoshop TV folder. This seems to me to be the correct path.
But most of the episodes wind up in iTunes Music folder>Unknown Artist>Unknown Album folder, along with many unrelated, non-podcast files.
Now when I search in the Library for<Photoshop> all the Photoshop TV files appear, along with other files referencing Photoshop. But when I search the Library using <Photoshop TV> as the search term, only the Photoshop TV files in the Unknown Album folder show up, but not the ones in the Podcasts>Photoshop TV folder.
And finally when I cllick on Podcasts in the Source pane, once again only the Photoshop TV files in the Unknown Album show up.
I've tried adding those Photoshop TV files back to the library but they remain in the Unknown Album folder.
I haven't tried rebuilding the library yet. I will, but it seems that wont actually move any files. I could also recreating a new library moving my iTunes music folder out of the iTunes folder and then adding them all back. That seems like overkill and I might very well end up with the same problem. (I'm not sure how many of my other Podcast subscriptions have this problem, but not many)
So,
1) how can I get these Photoshop TV files into the Podcasts>Photoshop TV folder, and
2) how can I make this the folder that shows up when I search via the Podcast source, and
3) what causes this problem?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Itunes is constantly downloading podcasts, deleting them, and redownloading them. How can i stop this?

Itunes downloaded 122gb in a single day last month, which pushed me well over my internet data cap. My podcasts are set to keep all unplayed podcasts, and to automatically download the most recent ones. These settings are what I've used successfully for close to two years now.
Today I installed Windows 8 RP, hoping to resolve the issue (and of course play more with W8RP). Started it up, subscribed to a podcast, the newest episode was downloaded (i had watched it on their website previously), i right clicked it and selected 'mark as played', it disappeared and was not redownloaded. As intended. So then i subscribed to my other 30ish podcasts and observed the downloads page in itunes for a bit. One completed, disappeared and never reappeared anywhere. It wasnt in podcasts at all. I waited for another one to complete, same thing happened. But when it disappeared from the downloads queue, the first one reappeared at the bottom of the downloads queue.
Any idea what's going on? googling didnt help in the slightest.

Your post creates more questions than I could imagine possible.

So, you are trying to use Windows 8 to resolve the issue of going over your data cap, is that correct? (Surely not!) But, watching, so it's a video - and then letting iTunes download the same video as a Podcast is the reason you're going over your data cap, isn't it?
But frankly, I'm confused about the nature of your issue. Is it that you go over your data cap, or that iTunes (and I have to assume you mean iTunes and not Windows 8 [RP]) is downloading the same Podcast twice?
Why do you need to manually set a Podcast to "mark as played", iTunes will do that for you when the Podcast ends? What has Windows 8 got to do with any of this?
And why are you subscribing to your other 30ish Podcasts after downloading Windows 8 (yet more of your data usage allowance)? You imply that you regularly listen (or watch) these Podcasts, so presumably you are already subscribed to them, so why subscribe again? Are you doing this in Windows 8 as well as iTunes?
Sorry if I sound negative; perhaps it's me, but I really don't understand what exactly you are doing, which suggests that whatever it is, is the reason for your issues. Maybe someone else will see the light and add to this post and sort out your problems, but if not, then perhaps it's because they are as confused as I am and can offer no useful advice.

My husband and I have the same itunes password. When I tried to set up his own, it said that I could not use his email address because it is a back up address on mine. How can I change that....can't find the right place to go. Thanks

My husband and I have the same itunes password. When I tried to set up a separate one for him, it said that his email address was used as a backup on my phone so it could not have its own address. Where do I go to remove his address as my backup address....thanks

Video podcasts suddenly regarded as music in iTunes: how can I fix this?

Hi everyone,
OK I've looked around for some time now, but the answer does not seem to be out there.
After a recent iTunes upgrade, all my video podcasts were treated by iTunes as music podcasts.
What I mean by that:
- TV icon is missing next to the file in iTunes
- Right click says "mark as played" instead of "mark as watched"
- Available Media Kinds are "Music, Podcast, iTunes U, Audiobook & Voice Memo" instead of "Music Video, TV Programe, Film, Podcast & iTunes U"
- "Part of gapless album" ticking box is not greyed
- Those files are absent from the "Video Playlists" on my iPod classic
However, video podcasts downloaded after the upgrade behave normally! See image below: first video podcast is fine, the others are not.
This is puzzling me because the old files all have "MPEG-4 video file" as "Kind" and "Podcast" as "Media Kind", just like the new ones.
Anyone knows what's wrong here? and how to fix it?
Thanks a lot for your help
Romain

Are you talking about using iTunes music for a slide show? If so you need to go to iTunes, file, library, reorganize files and then it will work.

I need to create a podcasting show. I want my Podcasting on iTunes and the Internet. How do I do that?

I need recording software for the DivineDiva Talk Show. How do I get the podcasting to start and record?

How can I get my podcasts back in my music ap?, how can I get my podcasts back in my music ap?

My iPhone and computer have not been in synch since the ipod ap was pulled out of music as a stand alone.
I had instructions for putting my podcasts back in the 'more' tab of my music ap, but it calls for checking the
'unsynch' tab that was in the previous iteration of itunes. Since downloading itunes 11, I can't find the option under
podcasts to unsynch. I am so unhappy with how podcasts are downloading and playing now. Please share fixes.

Thank you. I had actually done that, and then could not re- sync my iPhone. It connects to iTunes and is recognised, but does not sync, although the bar at the top sys it is synching , and goes through the process very quickly. But in the end I still have my photos in the old order on the iPhone, and no music at all!
