Podcast doesn't shows in library

I've never subscribed to a podcast but now would like to. Unfortunately, all podcasts "subscribe" button are grey and do not work, and my library only shows categories for music, movies, books, apps, ringtones and radio. Isn't there supposed to be a podcast category? According to the help docs there is. Any ideas?

In your iTunes, go to Edit/Preferences/General>Podcasts and make sure it's ticked (checked). While you're about it, also check on *Edit/Preferences/Parental Control* and make sure that Podcasts is not disabled.
Any luck? +There should be!+

  • Latest ep of my podcast doesn't show in iTunes. Subscribers CAN download it. Podcast page shows 'Total: 3 items' but lists only items 2 and 3. RSS feed is validated and fine.

    Latest ep of my podcast doesn't show in iTunes store. Subscribers CAN download it. Podcast page shows 'Total: 3 items' but lists only items 2 and 3. RSS feed is validated and fine. How do I get iTunes to display it?

    I've used Feedburner many times and never had such a problem. I am a bit confused, forgive me if I ask for questions already answerd. Have you tried updating the podcast in someone elses copy of iTunes? My guess is that the file is bad since it is working in other programs but not iTunes. I would try making a new .mp4 file and podcasting it and seeing if that works.
    Good luck!

  • Podcast doesn't show up on a search for the title or category.  Also, how do I check title, description, keywords, etc?

    I just put up a Podcast for our church.  Now I need to change the image and check the titles.  Also, when I search for The Village Presbyterian Church, Northbrook, IL nothing shows up.  And when I go into the Christianity section my podcast doesn't show.  It all works.  What should I do?

    Please post the iTunes Store URL for your podcast - this was given to you in the email you received when it was accepted, or you can go to the Store and control-click (Mac) or right-click (Windows) on the image (or where it should be) and copy the URL; please also post the feed URL.

  • IMovie crashed now .rcproject file doesn't show in library/project list and won't open.

    URGENT PROJECT DUE TODAY.
    iMovie crashed while I was working on a project, now I can't c the file in iMovie, however I can see it in Finder and moved to the movie folder, but it still doesn't show in my iMovie library or project list and nothing will open it.  It is listed as a .rcproject and I cannot find how to open it.  PLZ PLZ HELP

    Were you working with iMovie 9 or 10 when you had the crash?
    It sounds like you were in iMovie 10 trying to update your iMovie 9 projects into iMovie 10.
    If you were working in iMovie 10, see if you can still see everything with iMovie 9.0.9 (the 2 versions have completely different media file structures).
    If you were in iMovie 9 it sounds as if the .rcproject package may have got corrupted.  You can look inside the package in Finder with the "show package contants" contextual menu but I would not know how to repair it manually. 
    Do you have a backup or are you running time machine?  With a backup you should be able to replace the offending package with a working version.

  • Please help! - Artwork for podcast doesn't show up in iTunes store.

    Hi there - My artwork doesn't show up in the iTunes store.
    Artwork shows up fine in the downloaded episodes, but in the store, only the "plain" podcast icon shows up. It's been nearly a week.
    -I published my feed with Feeder and host it on my site
    -Feedburner pulls it in
    -I submitted it myself in iTunes (using the feedburner feed-need it for stats)
    -I have been approved, and people have started subscribing.
    -Feed has been vetted, and appears to be ok.
    iTunes link: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=3485...
    Feedburner Link: http://feeds.feedburner.com/meetingwithmasters
    True feed: feed://bonehead.us/mwm.xml
    Please help!
    Thanks!
    DrJ

    The image is correctly referenced in the feed and there is an image at that URL. Some people have found that it takes some time for the image to appear, even after the podcast itself has been approved and appeared in the Store. so I should give it another few days.

  • 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:

  • Movie rental won't play and doesn't show in library (not in video app)

    I've downloaded the movie successfully. It is not in my iTunes library but when I search using Finder, it says that it is there? (location says iTunes/iTunes Media/Movies/TITLE) When I click to watch via the route file in finder, it rediects to iTunes movie folder but doesn't play and it still isn't on the list.
    As it's a rental I'm sure that this will still be considered that I have started viewing so it will expire in 24 hours.
    Any way to fix this and to 'reset' this so I can watch it and not have my rental period finished?
    Thanks

    If you are in the states, you may be able to re-download for free. The file may be corrupted.

  • TS2972 itunes will not allow me to download a homeshare library - has connected and states it is downloading but then doesn't show the library?

    Have connected to homeshare, but Itunes will not let me see the homeshare library from another PC.  It is connected and when I click on ******homeshare library it says it is downloading it - but then doesn't????  Help!

    Hello ariani,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Home Sharing in iTunes.  I recommend the following steps for the issue you described:
    4. Check your network connection
    Home Sharing requires a home network with an active Internet connection. All the devices you want to use with Home Sharing need to be connected to your home network.
    In addition, verify that:
    All your devices are connected to the same router, if you have multiple routers. Using multiple routers may prevent discovery between these devices.
    Your devices are not using a Virtual Private Network (VPN), or that they are all on the same VPN. A VPN may isolate the device and cause connectivity disruptions.
    If you have a router set up with a guest network, make sure all devices are either connected to the guest network and devices on the guest network are allowed to communicate with each other, or switch all devices to the primary network on your router.
    If your computer is asleep or shutdown, or iTunes is closed, there's no access to the shared iTunes library. Wake up or start the computer and open iTunes to regain access to that library.
    Your router needs to be up-to-date. If you are using an AirPort or Time Capsule, read this article to find out more about firmware updates. If you are using a router from another manufacturer, contact the manufacturer to inquire about available updates.
    5. Check Firewall Settings
    If you have a firewall enabled in your router or computer, make sure that the firewall is not blocking communication between your computers. Home Sharing uses TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 to communicate with shared iTunes libraries.In addition, Apple TV and Mac computers will use port 123 to set the time automatically. Incorrect date and time on either the computer or Apple TV can cause errors for Home Sharing and connections in general.If you are unsure whether your router has a firewall or the required ports open, test additional devices or another network to help isolate the issue. If the devices tested work on another home network, it is your router or network configuration.For Mac OS X, you don't have to edit the port addresses, but make sure the firewall in Apple () menu >System Preferences > Security > Firewall are not set to:
    Block all incoming connections
    Allow only essential services
    If you use another security/firewall software on your computer or router, follow this article or contact the manufacturer or check the documentation on how to open TCP ports 123 and 3689 as well as UDP ports 123 and 5353.
    6. Quit and reopen apps and iTunes
    If connectivity issues persist, quit and reopen iTunes on your computer. Then, quit and reopen the apps on your iOS device.
    7. Restart your network router
    Restart your home network router using the method recommended in documentation from the manufacturer. This may include disconnecting the power cord for thirty seconds or more.
    Note: During this period, Internet services such as a VoIP-based phone will not work, and any additional routers may need to be reset in sequence.

  • Downloads doesn't show in Library when click "show all downloads"

    On this newly installed laptop when I clicked on "Show All Downloads", the library pops-up but then it only shows All Bookmarks and nothing else whilst on two other desktop computers it will show History, Downloads, Tags then only All Bookmarks.
    Not sure how to attached the screen captures but I've uninstalled and reinstalled FF 29.0.1 five time to no avail.
    Thanks in advance

  • Podcast doesn't show up on iPod

    I downloaded an NPR podcast -- Leonard Cohen concert -- then tried to sync it to my iPod classic. I checked sync selected, then hit apply, and it showed up in a podcast category in my source list when the iPod was connected to the Mac. But I can't find it on my iPod when I disconnect it. Any idea where it is, or how I can get it to show up?

    I assume you mean Leonard Cohen Live from the Beacon Theatre, Feb 27. I've just downloaded it and it is now on my iPod, so this suggests it's not the Podcast itself.
    Is this the first time you have added Podcasts? If so, it sounds as though you simply haven't carried out the correct steps in the correct order.
    Also, what do you mean by "I checked sync selected"? If this is your first Podcast addition, do you mean/have you:
    1. connected the iPod to iTunes
    2. switched to the Podcasts pane and checked (put a tick-in-the-box) to *Sync /<XX> /episodes of /all podcasts* (or whichever episodes you want)
    3. clicked the Sync button after steps 1 & 2?
    You will only have to select these options for syncing Podcasts once, after that they will be as you want them at every Sync.

  • Itunes doesn't show my library!!

    I have just opened Itunes and, to my surprise, none of my 3500+ files appeared.
    Only a few hours ago, I have joined three video files, and when I closed Itunes the library saved. I store the files (the iTunes Music folder) on an external drive.
    My answer is, where is the ITunes library saved? I have made a search on my hard drive and I obtain several results, but all of them are old files. Where is the one I saved this afternoon?
    Thank you for you help

    I already had my files in the external HD when I bought my first iPod, so what I did was replacing the default iTunes Music folder by the new one, in my case H:\iPod, and iTunes immediately started building the library from there, and arranging the music files by author and album.
    So I never did the consolidation process, because songs had always been there.
    I'm very surprised, because everything seems as I left it some hours ago, except that there are no songs in the library... and apparently not the library file I was using, either.

  • Podcast feed image doesn't show up

    Hi,
    I have two separate podcast image issues here:
    1. I can't get the feed image of a new podcast to show up at all. The podcast has been showing up for a while now. How long does it take for the feed image to show up? Is there no maximum size for feed images now? There used to be, but I don't see a size limit anymore, only a suggestion that the image should be square, which this one is. Here is the .rss feed in question:
    http://christiantelevisionbroadcasting.com/rss/crosstalk.rss
    2. I have a podcast that's been listed here on iTunes since 2005, when iTunes first started listing podcasts. I noticed recently that this podcast no longer shows up in the featured podcasts, even though it's popular, and certainly one of the oldest continuing podcasts on iTunes. The podcast (Axis Coffee House) shows up near the top of the list when you search the podcasts for "praise" or "Texas Baptist" and then sort by popularity. If you click on "see all" to look at the list of image icons, the Axis podcast doesn't show up at all anymore. I suspect there may be something wrong with the feed image which prevents it from showing up in the graphical listing? Here is the .rss feed in question:

    Thanks for your help... (smile)

    sadly, we podcast creators have no way of controlling what is a featured podcast. This is something that the iTunes staff picks and chooses...here's a snippet from the spec:
    "Getting Featured on the iTunes Home Page
    At iTunes, we’re constantly on the lookout for podcasts that are breaking new ground with this medium, have new or unusual content, or just capture our interest. When we find them, we like to feature them on the Podcasts home page. While there are no sure-fire ways to get your podcast featured (and no, we do not accept payments for promotion), there are some minimum requirements."
    The popularity meter in iTunes for podcasts is pretty useless and is in not really reflective of how popular your feed really is. It's merely a gauge as to how frequently people have subscribed to the feed with itunes. It doesn't take into account people that have subscribed via direct link, manually subscribed, or subscribed using other feed readers/podcatchers.
    Feed validator is still coughing up some errors. You missing GUID's for your items as well. The GUID can be anything as long as it's unique throughout the xml. Often times just using the same url as the enclosure does the trick.
    The iTunes podcast directory is also very clunky and has quite a lot of holes...some feeds are listed in categories they don't belong in, some are listed when searching but not browsing, all sorts of strange behavior. So there may not be anything wrong with your feed that is causing it not to show up....just a clunky database.

  • I have Windows 7 main library, iMac with additional library and Apple TV that I want to use home sharing, but windows library doesn't show as a computer on Apple TV.

    I have music and movie library on an external drive connected to a Windows 7 machine. I also have home movies and other content on an iMac that I use.  I want to turn on home sharing for both and connect them to Apple TV for display, music and podcast.  They are all on the same wifi home network, but the Windows library doesn't show up on the ATV device.
    I turned off all Windows firewall and I tried to configure port forwarding, but that didn't help.
    I will say that this did work at some point, so a patch or an update, or some configuration change has caused it to stop workin at some point in the past six months to a year.

  • I purchased a movie from itunes on my ipad but it doesn't show up in my library.  It shows up in my history of purchases when I open that page but it is not noted in the list of purchases with all my other purchases.  Any idea why?

    I purchased a movie from itunes on my regular ipad but it doesn't show up in my library.  I am able to view it via my movies icon on the Ipad I used when purchasing it but it does not show up in my purchases listing to download to my ipad mini.  Also if I access my itunes account it does not show up in the history of purchases listing like all my other purchases but it does show up when i open that page at the very top; separate form the list.  I've tried everything to get it to show up so I can download/view it on my ipad mini.  

    Hi adtsalmon,
    You can only watch the movie on the device you rented it on. Here's a snippet from the Apple Support site (italics mine):
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
    Here's the link to the Movie Rentals FAQs site FYI:

    Hope this helps!
