Podcast episode in iTunes feed but not on preview page

I have been experiencing different behavior with my podcast in the iTunes store this week. My latest two episodes took a couple of days to update in the iTunes feed when for the past two months they have appeared within an hour. What concerns me is that they are not displaying on the preview page for my podcast in the iTunes store, even the one that was published two and a half days ago. Apple's email support persists in telling me how to submit a podcast to the store and suggesting that I phone support and ask my question for a fee. Liberated Syndication tells me that the feed URL is accurate and that the episodes in question have been published. It also says several of its customers are experiencing this problem currently with iTunes.
Any ideas?
My feed URL is http://astroinsight.libsyn.com
My iTunes URL is http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/astroinsights-podcast/id479652731

Your feed is at http://www.cooksux.com/theahhashow/podcast/podcastblaster.xml
iTunes is unable to read this feed because there is a fatal error in the episode of 27 November. The 'itunes:subtitle' tag contains an ampersand ('&') by itself - because an ampersand indicates the beginning of a code sequence which is never completed, and this renders the feed unreadable. You need instead to use the code
&
as you have in fact done elsewhere. Since this is in episode 5 this is why your subscription stopped at episode 4. I'm not clear how the Store has managed to keep updating, except that the Store and the iTunes application are quite different things and it may be that the Store software has been arranged to ignore this error. Anyway, make the change and it will work again. (Make sure there aren't any more instances of this.)

Removing podcast episodes from iTunes 12 but keeping the files

I want to be able to remove a podcast episode from iTunes 12 but keep the audio file on my computer. This used to be an option, but now I am no longer asked if I want to keep the file. It's just automatically moved to the Trash. I like to archive podcast episodes on my external drive, but I don't always feel like getting the drive out when I'm done listening, plugging it in and dragging and dropping the files. I'm lazy like that. I would keep the episodes I plan to archive on iTunes until I feel like breaking out the drive, except that brings me to my second issue: my podcasts seem to all be set to automatically delete played episodes after 24 hours, at least depending on what view I'm in. I have "Delete Played Episodes" set to "Off" in my default podcast settings, and when I context click a podcast in the "My Podcasts" view and select "Podcast Settings" it says "Delete Played Episodes" is "Off". However when I go to the Playlists view, select an episode and click the "Settings..." button at the bottom, it always says the selected podcast has "Delete Played Episodes" set to "On", even if I click to change it to "Off" in that view. So there's obviously a contradiction there. I don't want to take the chance that my played episodes will be automatically deleted so the sooner I get them off iTunes the better. Unfortunately that means deleting them, then dragging them from Trash back to the iTunes Media/Podcasts folder and into each appropriate podcast folder, which is annoying. Please tell me that the removal of the "Keep the file" option is just a bug. If Apple is, for whatever reason, trying to discourage me from moving my played episodes out of iTunes and onto another drive, then I'm just going to stop using iTunes altogether.

The iTunes Store reads your feed at intervals and caches the contents (the information, not the actual media files): when you make a change to the feed it usually takes 1-2 days for this to be reflected in the Store. Pinging doesn't seem to make a lot of difference. Very occasionally it all slows down and can take several days.

I can find my Podcast in the Itunes store but not in the Podcast list.

If I search for my podcast in the Itunes store it shows up. So, I click subscribe, and everything looks like its working. When I check the Podcast section of my library I don't see it. The link to my podcast is http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=358348024. The feed is http://www.rodsotr.com/RODSOTR/Podcast/rss.xml. I'm hoping the issue is just with the itunes on my computer. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rod

It works perfectly well for me: I can't suggest why it isn't for you. When you click the 'Subscribe' link in the Store page you should see a 'Downloads' item appear in the sidebar below 'Purchased' showing the progress of downloading the top episode, and above all that in the top section of the sidebar under 'Podcasts' you should see the podcast.
If you don't: try going to the 'Advanced' menu, choosing 'Subscribe to podcast' and entering the URL of your feed and see what happens.

New podcast episode downloads in subscription but not shown in episode list

We are uploading podcasts under the name Rivendell Fellowship. (link is http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/rivendell-fellowship/id392550297)
I subscribe and the most recent episode downloaded automatically and plays in I-tunes. But when I search through our episode list, it isn't shown. I wanted to post an online link to that particular episode but can't find it to do so.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Your latest episode, 'Follow Me', posted 6 March, appears in the feed, when subscribing, and in the Store page. The only oddity is that the Store page is not showing the duration - this is a quirk which has affected a number of podcasts recently: but everything otherwise is quite normal.
If you want to post a link to the actual media file, it's at
http://recordings.talkshoe.com/TC-87855/TS-461055.mp3
Otherwise I'm not entirely clear whether you still have a problem - please do post back if you have, but it would be helpful if you could provide exact details of what you are expecting to see but aren't.

Podcast available on iTunes store but not coming in through subscription

My podcast was approved on iTunes and shows up just fine. Unfortunately, I can't get the episode to show up when I subscribe to the podcast.
Here's my listing on iTunes
http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/mmomfg/id501363211
Here's my XML file
http://mmomfg.com/MMOMFGPodcast.xml
New at this so it's possible I am overlooking something.
Appreciate the help!

Figured it out.
I totally skipped over the part where you need to add
<rss xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" version="2.0"> to your rss feed.
Without it itunes doesn't know what it's look at.

My itunes Feeds are not updating

My itunes feeds are not updating. One stopped updating a couple weeks ago, while another one is approaching a month without an update. Anyone have any ideas on what is going on? Anything i can do to resolve this issue? Any help is appreciated. thank you.

https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/g-and-t-show/id689638265?mt=2

The feed for the first podcast you list is at
http://feeds.feedburner.com/gandtshow/RAcB
There is a line at the very top of the feed which reads
Notice: Undefined index: feed_redirect_url in /hermes/bosnaweb03a/b2043/ipw.certifiedpcdoctor2/public_html/GandTshow/wp-conte nt/plugins/powerpress/powerpress.php on line 1377
Its presence renders the feed unreadable; when subscribing it shows up blank, and the iTunes Store is showing a cached version from the last time it could read the feed.
The feed for the second podcast is at
http://www.gandtshow.com/?feed=podcast2
There appear to be no errors in this feed, but it is showing up empty when subscribing. It did take a long time to load in Firefox, so it's possible that it may be timing out in iTunes and the Store.

How do I delete a podcast episode in itunes 11?

I typically download podcast episodes in iTunes and then sync them with my phone. I listen to the podcasts on my iPhone and then delete them when done. I have been doing this for years. Now, I cannot figure out how to delete the individual episodes from my podcasts in iTunes 11. What am I missing?

You and me both!
I started out with an Apple+ way back when. We came back from Christmas vacation to a faculty meeting where an AEA (Area Education Agency) employee was to introduce us to this new BIG DEAL - computers!
Afterward, the math/science people the superintendent expected to get so excited took a walk while his ENGLISH department learned to type 10 HELLO, etc. until you got a document window open and could enter text, AND CORRECT IT, causing it to print out WITHOUT mistakes. My typing skills were non-existent, so I went to the elementary teachers and borrowed a program they used to introduce students in second grade to the keyboard. (I was a jr./sr. high school teacher, and nobody could figure out why I'd never been taught to type.
Sigh.
I SURE HOPE THEY GET OVER THIS MESS IN A HURRY! I want to go back to i-Tunes 10+ whatever I was at, but Lion won't let me dump i-Tunes, as it is part of the OS. BUMMER!
Most of all I hate the sneaky way they introduced this, just like it was a regular upgrade, not something that would ruin our work methods of many year's standing and giving us NOTHING to replace it with short of scrolling down through 1700+ podcasts. UCK!

How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable? The albums show as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized device. I also have albums that appear in my library, but are not able to be added to my iPod from my computer

When you download something from the iCloud, it is a brand new licensed copy. Your iCloud account just contains a notation that you have this app. It isn't storing an actual copy of the app from your Mac.

One of my movies I bought shows up on my mac in the itunes library but not on the apple tv.

I own about 30 movies on my apple tv and one of my movies I bought shows up on my mac in the itunes library but not on the apple tv. How do I fix this issue and get it to show up on my apple tv?

Two things to check
1st
Settings
Mail, Contacts, Calendars
AccountsHow many accounts are there?
2nd
From Home screen press Mail app
Press the top left button (next to Inbox)
You'll see all the Inboxes for the accounts present
You'll know either way whether one or more accounts has been setup.
SIDE NOTE: Not too sure about MobileMe though, might be integrated with iCloud, not sure.

I have multiple devices, I can share itunes music but not my apple apps.

I have an imac, ipad and three iphone 5s. I can share my itunes music but not my apps. All three iphones have separate Apple id's. Thanks

Mac OS applications cannot run on iOS (or vice versa). If there is an iOS version of the same app available, use it for your iDevices.

How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

They need to be registered under different Apple ID's. The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up. If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset. Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device. You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before. Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.

I have music that is playing within the iTunes program, but not on my iPod. How can I fix this?

I have music that is playing within the iTunes program, but not on my iPod. How can I fix this?

Skipping songs
The iPod seems to fail to play all of the occasional track that iTunes, and indeed other PMPs, are happy to play. There is probably some minor technical error in the internal structure of the file which is normally ignored by other playback software but causes the Classic to bail out.
If you use Windows you may like to try scanning the files with MP3Validator which can find & fix some internal MP3 errors.
Some users have also suggested that completely removing all id3 tags and then replacing the information can be a solution. This can be achieved in iTunes by selecting an affected track, right/control clicking and using the option Convert id3 tags> None. Since some files may mistakenly have more than one tag you may need to repeat this action. Once you have confirmed that no tag is present you can replace the tag information using Convert id3 tags > V2.3 (I believe it is recommended to avoid using V2.4).
Personally I have found files for which these solutions don't work. In this case the workaround is either to re-rip the tracks or get iTunes to re-encode the file, e.g.convert AAC to MP3 or vice versa and sync the newly encoded file to the iPod instead. Because transcoding will cause a loss of fidelity you should keep your original file so that if a future iPod firmware resolves this issue you can put your original files back onto the iPod.

if you don't have "enable disk use" or "manually manage music" selected in your summary tab, that's normal.
do you have either "enable disk use" or "manually manage music" selected in your summary tab?

Hello evanfromvic
If you have a back up in iTunes, you can restore from that back up. The article below will assist with getting that backup restored.
