Podcast ArtWork Not Showing In Library

Hello, support.
My Podcast (https://itunes.apple.com/es/podcast/managing-madrid-podcast/id630812424?mt=2) correctly shows a picture defined in the feed (http://feeds.feedburner.com/ManagingMadridPodcast) , and I also have that same logo set as the cover pic for everyone of our three episodes available. Still, the image won't show in the iTunes library. It shows when we access the podcasts' site in the Store, but not in any of the episodes or even the own podcast in the library.
Could you give me a hand?
Thanks

The image you see in some podcasts when you subscribe in iTunes is not referenced in the feed but is actually embedded in the media files. Please see this page for a full explanation:

  • Podcast artwork not showing up in store.

    I'm sorry. I'm sure this gets asked all the time, but the other topics I found in search did not seem to be my problem.
    My podcast feed is:
    http://mediathresher.com/?feed=podcast
    My podcast artwork is at:
    http://www.mediathresher.com/wp-content/uploads/podcastlogo.jpg
    (which you can see in the feed text)
    The podcast is on the store here:
    http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=372229560
    But I don't seem to get the artwork! I'm either doing something wrong or there's a delay between putting a podcast up in the store and seeing the artwork...? It was only approved a day or two ago. I optimized all the feilds in both my podcasting suite for my website and feedburner, and the id3 tag artwork shows up fine when I download.
    Sorry to be a pest! Thanks for any help!

    It seems to be normal for the Podcast Image on the Store page to take a day or two longer to appear than the feed - evidently it's cached separately. It can take even longer for the version of on the Search results page to appear, but it all usually sorts itself out eventually.

  • Podcast Artwork not showing up in iTunes

    I have a new podcast which was recently approved by iTunes. All appears to be well with the feed setup, but the artwork is not appearing properly in iTunes. I have checked the setup on my end and the raw feed XML, and I don't see the problem, as the URL to the artwork image seems to be specified correctly. Here is the feed:
    http://www.bighillsoftware.com/category/podcasts/runtime/feed/
    The <itunes:image> tag is present and points to the proper image. Any ideas on how to get the image to show up properly?
    Thanks,
    Brad

    iTunes caches the image, to save reading it off the server every time someone looks at the Store page, but can take some days before it appears in the Store. I can't give you an exact timing, but I wouldn't be surprised at 7-10 days. The feed and the image are OK, so it's just a question of waiting.
    When you add new episodes to your feed they will appear immediately for subscribers but will usually take 1-2 days to appear in the Store - again, due to cacheing, this time of the feed itself.

  • Want to change podcast artwork: not showing up in iTunes Store

    Hi. I want to change the icon/artwork for my podcast.
    My website (created with iWeb) = www.manleywoman.com
    My podcast in iTunes Store = Manleywoman SkateCast
    I use Garageband to create my podcast, then save to iWeb, then save to iTunes. So I changed the artwork on the podcast itself in Garageband. That worked fine and shows up properly on my website and on the episode for which the artwork was changed. I thought that changing the artwork on the podcast RSS page of my website would automatically change it in the iTunes Store, but so far no luck.
    Can someone walk me through how to make the proper artwork show up in the iTunes Store? Right now it's just a broken link. Thanks

    You can update your artwork via feedburner.
    1. Go to feedburner.com and log in to your account.
    2. Click on your feed for the show.
    3. Click on the OPTIMIZE tab at the top, then click SMARTCAST on the navigation bar to your left.
    4. Under PODCAST IMAGE LOCATION you can add the url to the image you want to use (store it in your site folder somewhere).
    You can also add in keywords, and description as well.
    Hope that helps.

  • Podcast artwork not downloading

    Hi, everyone.
    I'm having problems with podcast artwork not showing up. I normally download my podcasts through iTunes, and for several feeds, album art shows up in the iTunes Store but isn't embedded in the files I download.
    I always figured that the providers were just somehow not embedding the art in the individual files, but then I noticed that when I download the files directly from my iPhone, they show up just fine. To test it out, I tried two copies of the same file -- one downloaded directly to the phone and another synced from iTunes -- and got the same result: one with album art, one without.
    Any idea what's going on here?
    Thanks,
    --Brian

    Also have this problem - Even after vigorous Menu>Get Album Artwork attempts. My Podcasts look like empty tabs with zero differentiation between each other...
    Come on Apple, stop treating podcast talent like chode, they're one of the only things keeping you guys from having to totally overhaul the iTunes app... how is that going by the way? I guess we'll all just keep jumping over to Spotify until you get that one figured out... Better hope they don't dig into podcasts too =/
    Jokes aside, I love iTunes, but it really need the artwork to complete the experience, eh?
    P's,

  • Podcast items not showing on Podcast Page in iTunes App

    The Podcast items of the following Podcast are not showing when I choose to see the Podcast page within iTunes App: https://itunes.apple.com/ch/podcast/uzh-news-video-und-audio/id626789977?l=en
    It's possible to subscribe to the podcast, and all items are being shown in the library as well, but not in iTunes Store View within iTunes App.
    Please help : )
    Devices: Desktop (iTunes 11.02), iPad 2 & iPhone 4S (both with latest iOS) - same problem everywhere

    Hi Roger
    Many thanks for your very fast answer! : )
    In the meantime, we scanned the XMLfrom the RSS-Source (http://www.uzh.ch/news/topics/multimedia.rss) but we could not confirm any missing </image> closing tag.. : /
    You're speaking of 21 instances of 'image' tags while there are only 20 items available in this feed - maybe the 21st might be the <itunes:image... />-tag (for the podcast art) which is not in need of a closing tag?
    We know that iTunes doesn't like our image tag on item level. However, we do need this tags for other usage of this video-article-feed (f.ex. normal RSS feed subscribing) which is why we cannot remove it. But: do you know of any «trick» of specifically blocking that element for iTunes store since its troubling the latter so much?
    Many thanks again, and our kindest regards to you and beautiful Londontown : )

  • My podcasts do not show the pictures only the sound when I import them to iTunes from Garage Band.  How do I get the pictures to show up in iTunes?

    My podcasts do not show the pictures only the sound when I import them to iTunes from Garage Band.  How do I get the pictures to show up in iTunes?

    Well, all I can tell you is that if your file is an m4a with chapter markers, those markers having suitably sized images attached, and you drag it into the Music area of iTunes (so that it appears as a song) in List view, when you play it and then command-click on the small image in the header (next to the progress bar) you should see your embedded images.
    If this isn't happening the best place to ask would be in the GarageBand forum: my own experience of GB is rather out of date and in any case I've never used it for podcasting.

  • Albums not showing in library after import

    Just install iTunes 10.4.1.10 on Win XP (have same issue on Win 7) it auto added my music folder but its all messed up due to filenames etc so I deleted everything from library with the intention of manually importing everything.  Albums are not showing in library after going File -> Add Folder to Library...
    Any ideas?

    Note that Pause and Resume can be found in the right-click context menu of an item (toolbar drop-down list).
    Do you have the .part file or only the (final) file with a byte count of 0 bytes?
    If the .part file and doesn't have the expected file size (2 GB) is missing then you won't be able to resume this download anyway. You can check the temp folder as well.

  • Podcast graphic not showing Iweb rss not the same as Technotes

    I noticed that the graphic for my podcasts are not showing in itunes. Pinged and changed them to 300*300 jpg.and changed name of file and you can get to the file from the url. Week later still no change but text updates ok. Just have the generic file. Also the categories in Iweb are out of date so need to use a find and replace to fix them al the time.
    Anyone else got the same problem?

    iTunes is having a problem at the moment with cover art
    http://discussions.apple.com/ann.jspa?annID=408
    so don't worry too much about that.
    Make sure your rss feed is all ok by going here http://www.feedvalidator.org/
    and putting in your fee which is
    http://web.mac.com/yournameondotmac/iWeb/(yoursitename)/(yoursitename)Podcast/(yoursitename)Podcast.html
    Fill in all the(yoursitename) with your sitename like jeffrobinson.
    Now yours may be different but you can see the path by going to your .mac in the finder and looking in the Web folder, then the sites folder, then the iWeb folder, and there is your site name on the enclosed folder. Remember that any spaces in a name are %20 in the url. Clear as mud eh?
    The other way is to look at your iWeb site in iWeb, find your podcast page on the left and the first main page of your podcast is the rss feed you need to validate so surf to it in safari and copy the url and put it in the validator above. Look at the results and tell me what they are or just send me the url here and Ill have a look for you. OK?

  • Podcasting: Duration not showing & Podcast does not play on ATV

    I have a couple of issues:
    1. I uploaded our last podcast episode yesterday. Everything seems to work fine but the duration of the podcast is not showing on iTunes. I checked the XML file and everything appears to be just like the past podcast episodes. What am I doing wrong?
    2. When I try to play my podcast on my ATV, it just gives me an error message... something like UNABLE TO PLAY PODCAST RIGHT NOW... I don't remember.
    Does someone have a clue of what might be taking place here and how to solve it?
    Thanks!
    ART

    The duration is correctly referenced in the feed: it appears when subscribing. Someone else has just made a similar complaint (though all but one of his durations were missing) so I'm wondering whether you've both hit some sort of odd glitch in the Store. It may sort itself out eventually - there isn't really anything you can do as you haven't done anything wrong.
    I'm not familiar with the ATV. I can see no obvious reason from the files why there should be a problem and can only suggest you ask in the ATV forum.

  • HT1473 Problem importing music; music imported not showing in library

    ITunes is really becoming a pain in the ***. I'm really ****** right now. Three days ago my new album purchase could not be located after it downloaded. I had to spend more time trying to make it work. Cd imported today does not show in library.

    Thanks. I've installed the back up disc, but itunes doesn't ask me if I want to restore. Even though itunes is my default player, a screen appears asking If want to play using real player, or media player, or do nothing. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

  • Podcast description not showing

    Hi,
    The description of podcasts is not showing on my iPhone 5, although they appear clearly on my PC in iTunes. How do I correct this?
    Many thanks,

    The feed registered with iTunes is at
    http://www.comopromovermimusica.com/category/podcast/feed
    iTunes is not using a Feedburner-generated feed so any amendments in Feedburner are having no effect.
    Your feed does not contain the 'iTunes declaration' at the top, nor any of the required tags for this information to show - 'itunes:author', 'itunes:subtitle' and so on. This I imagine is something you would need to address in Wordpress, but I can't advise on that.
    Any ht_access modifications are not likely to have an effect (though possibly a 301 redirect may). If you want to move iTunes to the Feedburner feed the correct method is to add a special tag to the feed, following the instructions here:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#changing
    However this will have no effect if you don't have the itunes declaration at the top, which should look like this:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <rss xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" version="2.0">
    This is necessary for iTunes to be able to read the 'itunes:...' tags.

  • Podcasts do not show in ipod?

    I follow all the instructions in the manual but podcasts do not show in my ipod. What am I missing?

    Which iPod shuffle model do you have?  This document shows the four types.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1719
    1st and 2nd gen work a bit differently from 3rd and 4th gen.
    Assuming it's the current 4th gen shuffle (or 3rd gen), podcasts on the shuffle do not play from the All Songs list.  You need to use the VoiceOver feature to select the podcast from the playlist menu.  This document shows how to set up and use VoiceOver.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4322
    NOTE:  If you put podcast episodes on playlist in iTunes, and sync that playlist to the shuffle, the podcasts will only play if the shuffle's power switch is set to the play-in-order (middle) position. 

  • Podcast Album Artwork not showing in iTunes Store.

    Every website and application with the exception of the iTunes store shows the album artwork for our podcast. What could be causing this? The artwork is of valid format and is 600x600 which was recommended by the application and a few tutorials. However, when you search our podcast in the iTunes store, it shows the default "Podcast" artwork. I would post what the podcast details are, but I'm not sure of the rules against it.

    The artwork shown in iTunes Store comes from the tag 'itunes:image' which must be in the podcast descriptor area (not attached to any specific episode/enclosure). Try testing the URL you include in that tag from a generic location such as a library or internet cafe to ensure the URL is visible to the rest of the Internet.

  • Artwork not showing after manual library restore

    After my computer caught a virus and got reformatted, I reinstalled iTunes and simply copied my iTunes folder from a backup copy I made on an external hard drive to the My Music directory where it needs to be. Opened iTunes and the music is all there, but now the artwork does not show in Cover Flow mode. It is also "blacked out" when clicking on a song with "Get Info-Artwork"...just a black box in place of what was once a visual image of the artwork. I cannot find any options on any iTunes pull down menus to clear this up. I can't re-add the artwork....I just get a black box when i try to copy the JPG image file. Can anyone help?

    Probably nothing. This is a known issue with the music app that will hopefully be addressed in iOS 6. Actually, some of the artwork may show up on your next synch.
