No longer updating my podcast

Hello,
I've got a several baffling issues with my podcast.
First is that it has stopped updating. The last episode that appears is from LAST Friday and I have published 2 episodes since then.(I've waited for it to update for 3 days now ... and it suddenly does, 30seconds after I posted this question! The other questions still stand though)
The second is that when I double click on an episode from the list that appears in iTunes ... my show doesn't play. The same action will make other people's podcast play but just not mine.
Third thing I'm wondering about is why my podcast doesn't appear in the iTunes top page when I search for my main keyword (NASCAR)? If I search for that word and then click on the "podcast" link I can find it but it doesn't appear on the main page search with other podcasts that have that keyword.
Finally, how long should it take to hear from iTunes after I submitt my podcast? My podcast was submitted 15 days ago.
The iTunes URL is
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=250042741
Any help is appreciated.

So although I never had any answers to my post I have continued to work on these issues and I have an update.
I've got a several baffling issues with my podcast.
First is that it has stopped updating.
As I mentioned previously, after a few days this fixed itself as mysteriously as it started.
The second is that when I double click on an episode
from the list that appears in iTunes ... my show
doesn't play. The same action will make other
people's podcast play but just not mine.
I had heard from someone else who had apparently just updated their feed and was now suffering from this as well. I am wondering if it has something to do with the podcast not being "fully" implemented in iTunes yet?
Third thing I'm wondering about is why my podcast
doesn't appear in the iTunes top page when I search
for my main keyword (NASCAR)? If I search for that
word and then click on the "podcast" link I can find
it but it doesn't appear on the main page search with
other podcasts that have that keyword.
OK - I am working on the theory that iTunes mainpage search does NOT look at your "key words" list or even your podcast description. Instead it looks at the first 4 or 5 words of the description of your individual episodes!
I had "NASCAR" in both my keywords and "description" yet it didn't turn up. HOWEVER, when I did a main page search for "NEXTEL" my podcast showed up!!! "Nextel" was in the individual description of my last three episodes.
So, I have gone back and changed my individual descriptions for all of my episodes to include the word NASCAR. If I can ever get iTunes to update the descriptions we'll see if this does the trick!
Finally, how long should it take to hear from iTunes
after I submitt my podcast? My podcast was submitted
15 days ago.
The iTunes URL is
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/view
Podcast?id=250042741
Still no e-mail confirmation from iTunes.
I have read that this might take 7 to 10 days. It's 17 days and counting for me.
As always ... any helps or hints will be greatly appreciated.

    I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few past episodes at a time due to limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around for this?

    Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
    I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
    At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

  • Updating your podcast question....

    I am trying to use the "ping" method after updating my podcast, as stated here http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/techspecs.html,
    in hopes that it would quickly update my podcasts on iTunes. How long is it supposed to take to update?

    It varies -- the update is instant, but it may take several hours for the update to appear on site, as the cache for that page is refreshed on the servers.
    If it's taken longer than that, make sure your feed is working properly and validates with http://www.feedvalidator.org. Failure to update after a ping usually indicates a problem with the feed, if the update doesn't appear within a day or so.
    Good luck

  • ITunes Not Updating my Podcasts

    Since Nov 25, 2008 our sports podcasts are no longer updating to our iTunes podcast page.
    Have had no problem for over a year posting almost 300 podcasts.
    Does anyone know wht this has stopped?
    Is it the new iTunes 8.0.2?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Think I'm duplicating this but anyway...
    I've had the same problem with getting podcasts to my students.
    I've noticed that if they go directly to the iTunes Store they do NOT see updates; if instead I copy the iTunes Store url and give it to them all of the missing podcasts show up.
    But these do not appear as a refreshed podcast as they used to. Do a search for your podcast again and it's back to the old way. I thought this was a temp problem because of low staff levels during the holidays, but it seems to be a glitch. YES, tell giving the students the iTunes store url DOES WORK. Desperate times ask for disparate measures, huh?
    So, I either:
    Supply them with the xml and let them look at the page via Safari, Firefox or other browser.
    or, to keep my personal xml file private, I also set up the podcast simultaneously on FeedBurner. If you give them the Feedburner link, they can select any number of ways to get the podcast regularly, PLUS, Feedburner keeps track of the number of downloads. Nice.

    hi lenore_phila!
    if it's just itunes that isn't recognising the ipod, try:
    iPod for Windows: Fast user switching in Windows XP is not supported
    iPod appears in Windows Explorer but does not appear in iTunes
    ... but if Windows Explorer isn't seeing it either, try:

    I should have added that the iTunes app is not displayed on my phone in order for me to add the apps.

  • How can I make sure iTunes doesn't stop updating my podcasts

    OK I'm subscribed to multiple podcasts, but I don't always get a chance to listen to them so some of them will stop updating and it says something like "iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you haven't listened to any episodes lately".
    How can I make sure it doesn't do that? When I do get to listen to my podcasts, I would really like it if they weren't 3 weeks old.

    someone made a script that fixes this. It seems to work for me. If you want it to do it automatically just make an iCal even for every 3 days or something that runs this script.

  • When I "like" a song via Ping in iTunes, it no longer updates in my recent activity - any ideas why, or how to fix?

    Done all the normal updates - iOS5, iTunes 10.5, etc.
    As of the middle of June, every time I "like" a song via Ping in iTunes, it no longer updates in my Recent Activity tab in Ping.  Any ideas why, or how I can resolve?

    I don't have a solution, but this is also happening to me.  I have contacted iTunes Support but they have been less than useful.  Hopefully someone will have a solution and post here.

    Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
    $19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

    You can not merge accounts.
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

  • I have iBooks 2.1 on ipad. I changed my password and can no longer update the app. If I delete the app and install the updated version, will I lose the books I have purchased?

    I have iBooks 2.1 on ipad. I changed my password and can no longer update the app. If I delete the app and install the updated version, will I lose the books I have purchased?

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if you can then update the app.
    If you do delete the app then you should be able to re-download your ibook purchases via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app. But in case some of them are no longer available in the store and/or you have PDFs or epubs in it, then you could first connect it to your computer's iTunes and do File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11) which should copy them over to the Books part of your iTunes library so that you have your own copy of them and can sync them back (even though they aren't iTunes purchases it should also copy over any PDFs or epubs that you have in the iBooks app)

  • I have an older computer and can no longer update. After the latest Apple update I can no longer access my e-mail on my mac. I can view it on my iphone and on icloud. Is there a solution to this problem?

    Apple changed MobileMe to iCloud and then restricted iCloud to 10.7 users only unfortunately
    If your machine is a 64 bit processor Intel Mac you can upgrade to 10.7 for $29, however a lot of your 10.5/10.6/Rosetta based software could cease to function, especially third party hardware drivers for printers, fax machines, all-in-ones, scanners etc.
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also depending how old the machine is, if it can accept 4GB of RAM (preferred), older video card, may not run 10.7 very well or stable.
    My advice is to keep at 10.6.8, get a web based email service that's plaform/hardware neutral, forward your iPhone emails there. Gmail/Yahoo Mail for instance.
    When your ready for new hardware and all new software, then buy a new machine.
    If your going to go to 10.7 on your present hardware, I advise you clone 10.6.8 to a external drive first, that way you can c boot off the 10.6 disk erase the drive completely (necessary to remove hidden Lion Recovery Partition) and option boot off the 10.6.8 clone and reverse clone.

  • My iPad mini is no longer updating since last iOS update

    My iPad mini is no longer updating through iTunes since the last iOS update.

    Thanks Texas Mac Man.  My iPad is running 7.0.6 and it was after that update my iPad was no longer syncing through iTunes on my laptop.  My iPhone, also on 7.0.6, has no issues.  Earlier this morning I tried again, hooking my iPad up to iTunes and left them alone for a couple of hours and it never progressed past "syncing notes."
