Podcast for Windows

Ok, I just today made my forst Podcast. I put the RSS feed into Itunes and it accepted it. I received an e-mail saying the Feed was accepted and is under review etc?
Typically how long does it take for a Podcast to appear in Itunes?
And what happens when I want to make another Podcast?

Sorry, nobody will have an answer that will really be satisfying.. It might be awhile considering Apple is literally swamped with requests.

  • I can't get certain video podcasts to play properly in iTunes 11.2.1 for windows

    I have the latest version of iTunes for Windows on two different Windows PC's the one is a new Tablet purchased this month. I installed iTunes onto it and authorized it.  I subscribe to lots of podcast subscriptions some of which of video and some of which of audio.  I have been having trouble with the CNET video Podcasts such as First Look, CarTech, and HowTo.  When I try to play the podcasts the video becomes jerky and will not be synced with the audio.  The video sometimes flickers and then the video portion will sometimes flicker and then black out completely.  The pdocast will either finish playing in this state or I get a message saying "iTunes is out of memory or Windows tells me that the entire program has stopped working.  I thought these errors were due to the underpowered processor and only having 2GB of RAM so I went back to my "Daily Driver" which is a Dell XPS 15" with 12GB of RAM and an Intel Core I7 processor.  On the Dell computer this previous was not happening but now this one is starting to do it as well.  Audio only poducasts play just fine as well as video podcasts from TWIT.TV such as Windows Weekly, Security Now, and iFIVE for the IPhone. I have updated to the latest windows drivers for the video and chipsets on each machine but to no avail.  Any help is greatly appreciated. 

    Well, I guess those videos are not supported by the current version of iTunes.
    I originally had iTunes set to "Open in 32-bit mode" so I could watch these videos. But apparently, since I upgraded iTunes (and OS X), that setting no longer enables those videos to play. When that selection was enabled (Open in 32-bit mode), I experienced the behavior above. Once I de-selected that setting, and re-opened iTunes to try the video again, I recieved a message that stated "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."
    So, I guess I am out of luck?
    This is hard to believe.
    here is the issue, described again, in a question that has gone unanswered since October:

  • Is there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows? You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes.

    s there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows?
    You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes. You may get the following message: 
    iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?
    You can click Yes to continue downloading additional episodes. Or you can just listen to any part of any episode and a new episode will download at the next update.

    I believe that feature was added in order to reduce wasted costs to the Podcaster.
    Podcasts incur costs - that have to be paid for, by someone. That cost will be the cost of hosting the Podcast on a server somewhere and more crucially (with regard to your point), the cost of the Podcast being downloaded to your computer. Every download costs the Podcaster money (typically, charged by bytes downloaded).
    If that Podcaster pays for the whole thing personally, obviously they want to keep down any unnecessary cost to themselves. If the Podcaster is earning money for his or her Podcast (typically from advertising within the programme) then obviously, the advertiser only wants to pay for advertisements heard by listeners. So a download, not heard by the downloader, is waste of the Podcaster's money or no payment from the advertiser.
    My own experience is that I only have to resume downloading once per programme. I'm usually several episodes behind on two different Podcasts that I follow, but I do not recall having to repeat the resume Podcast after that first time.

  • Video Podcasts Not Syncing From my iPad Mini to iTunes for Windows

    Hello all.  I have the iPad Mini, and recently have been downloading my Podcasts there.
    It occurred to me that in case something happens to my iPad, I should have my Podcasts backed up to my computer.  So, i downloaded iTunes for Windows on my computer.  I plugged my iPad Mini into my computer and synced it, so that my Podcasts would sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library.
    I noticed that all of my podcasts did sync, except for the 3 video podcasts I have.  None of the video podcasts synced.
    Anyone know how I can get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library?
    Thank you in advance!

    Just wanted to kick my question back up. to see if anyone had any idea how to get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to iTunes on my computer.
    Audio podcasts seem to be syncing fine.  Just the video podcasts are not.
    Thanks.

  • Backup iTunes podcast download status for Windows XP reinstall

    I'm preparing for a long overdue reinstall of Windows XP. I use iTunes to downoad oodles of podcasts; I have many episodes which I've not yet downloaded and won't until I've completed the reinstall. That is, their download status is still set to "Get".
    My question is: How can I backup the status of my individual podcast episodes?
    I know how to backup/export the subscriptions (OPML) and the already downloaded files of course. Does iTunes have a file (XML? .config? ...) or some metadata that I can hook into so that I don't have to re-download everything once my reinstall is done?

    Same problem for Windows 7

  • What happened to Podcasts in Itunes 10.4.0.80 for Windows?

    I just installed Itunes for Windows on Windows 7, it is version 10.4.0.80, on a new computer. I went through the proceudre of subscribing to a podcast by going into Advanced >> Subscribe to Podcast. I expected to be able to see my subsribed podcast appear when I click on the Podcasts header in the navigation tree on the left. This is when I noticed that there is no Podcasts header. In the new version under "Library" I have "Music", "Films", "TV Programmes" and "Radio". I can't remember what version I was using before but I am pretty sure there used to be Podcasts here too. It doesn't appear anywhere on the list. Clearly the podcast section has just been moved somewhere, but where? I have repeated the action of subscribing several times and that seems to work with no errors, so it is definititely not a case of there just not being anything subscribed to. I only use Itunes to listen to podcasts, so this is rather crucial for me! Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this mystery.

    I found this happeneing too since upgrading from 10.3.x to 10.4 and can't beleive its still there in 10.5.
    Mine gets to between 1.2 and 1.6Gb before I get the 'Can't save library' error popup. If it happens late at night then the next day iTunes may be completely unresponsive - can't even bring it in to focus, so have to kill the process in Task Manager.
    This iTunes instance has been running for 15min short of one day of continuous playback! and based on it's current memory leakage, it's about to fail.
    For what it's worth, you can downgrade to 10.3 (you should be able to find sites archiving previous versions - Apple used to provide a link on their iTunes page, but I can't find it now). I was running or over a week with no decernable memory leakage, but as I wanted to upgrade to iOS5 on my phone, I had to go to 10.5.  I've got a MacBook Pro too, so may use that for iPhone updating and see if iOS5 will still sync music on 10.3 ...via direct USB connect of course!
    But, you'll also have to find the various guides for downgrading.
    Loosly put, you have to locate the backed up .itl files in your profile. It will have a date stamp in the filename to indicate when the upgrades took place.
    i.e iTunes Library 2010-11-22.itl
    It's a bit of trial and error unless you know how many upgrades you've done since 10.3!
    On Vista/Server 2008, the path to the backups is
    Users\<your user ID>\Music\iTunes\Previous iTunes Libraries
    Make a copy of your current .itl (in the parent iTunes folder) and copy and rename one from the backups. You'll need to rename the file back to the same as the current one (iTunes Library.itl)
    Hope this helps and hope that Apple pull the finger out of their cloud!

  • ITunes for Windows 11.0.4: "iTunes has stopped working" error messages when playing videos, video podcasts, movies and TV shows

    Title says it all.
    I've had this issue on this machine for some time but not forever. Music playback is fine but anything video related freezes the program. When I launch the program in safe mode it works though. Clearly some add-on or file is causing it to foul up.
    Before anyone suggests this: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4221 <-- I've tried it to no avail so please don't repost
    Anyways this is really annoying, please help.
    Thanks
    P.S. I know my way around the computer so no need to cripple your explaination

    Hello Appropriator,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The following article outlines further suggestions for troubleshooting video playback. While you have already completed one of the steps, there are a few more that you can try:
    Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1718
    Additional Information
    Some customers using computers containing NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA (SATA) controllers may experience unexpected behavior when playing videos in iTunes on Windows from a SATA hard drive. iTunes may unexpectedly quit or become unresponsive or the computer may unexpectedly reboot or show a blue screen. Standard IDE hard disks are unaffected by this issue. If your computer contains a standard IDE hard disk, you can copy your video files to that disk and play those copies of the files in iTunes or QuickTime Player.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • ITunes for Windows ignores "Keep last #" of podcasts setting ...

    Hi. Using iTunes 7.0.1.8.
    I have the following podcast settings set:
    - Update podcasts every day
    - When new podcasts are available: Do Nothing
    - Keep last 5 podcasts
    Nevertheless, iTunes keeps all podcasts that I have downloaded. Completely ignoring the setting.
    IF this setting is intentionally ignored because I have chosen to manually select podcasts for download, THEN this setting should be "ghosted" (disabled) when the "Do Nothing"setting is turned on.
    Either way it seems to be a bug. Anyone else observing this problem?
    Thanks!

    iTunes podcast management is turning out to be all or nothing. This happens for me also. What I do now is set iTunes to only update when I tell it and delete the episodes after I have listened to them.

  • I can't play a podcast for an audiobook from Librivox. It's in my podcast library but I can't get it to play.

    I downloaded a podcast for an audiobook from Librivox on "A Jury of her Peers." It shows up in my library, but when I try to play it nothing happens. No audio.  It's doing the same thing if I try to log in & play it at work.  Home computer runs Windows XP, work runs Windows7.

    ah, ok yes i did do that last night. I just did it again and relized that ther is a "Downloads" tab. I selected it and stated that there was a download error. I'm currently retrying it now. and it is now showing in my videos.
    thanks for helping me focus a little more to get where I need to be.

  • Problems with iTunes 8 for Windows, 1G iPod Nano

    i'm running iTunes 8.0.1.11 on my Windows XP Pro SP3 desktop, using it to manage my 1G iPod Nano 4GB software version 1.3.1.
    ever since upgrading to iTunes 8, i've had a few issues with the way it syncs (or doesn't sync, in my view) with the iPod:
    1: podcasts.
    prior to iTunes 8, the two most recent unplayed episodes would sync and delete after play - "play" being defined as starting to play the podcast. i didn't have to listen to the entire podcast for it to be removed. this worked for me, because many of the podcasts i listen to are news highlight shows (some run almost 2 hours). i'm usually only listening to specific parts of the show, not the whole thing.
    now, if i haven't listened to the entire thing, it doesn't delete. not only that, iTunes doesn't even automatically throw away listened podcasts from the computer anymore. not so big a deal on the computer (it's got plenty of disc space), but on the teeny-tiny iPod, it's a problem.
    so now i don't listen to podcasts on my iPod anymore. is there a fix so i can take my news with me again?
    2: music playlists.
    prior to iTunes 8, when i synced a playlist to the iPod, it synced the playlist's +current order+. in other words, if it was shuffled in iTunes, it was synced to play in the shuffled order.
    not any more. now, it only passes the "base" order of the playlist; i.e., whatever order it was "built" or manually arranged in. this is bloody aggravating. i don't want to listen to the same ten songs every time i hit play.
    adding insult to injury, iTunes also no longer passes whether the playlist is set to repeat. so it stops playing after the last song. also extremely aggravating.
    i realize that i can select "Shuffle Songs" in the iPod's menu. but since this shuffles all the songs on the device, it somewhat defeats the purpose of having bleeding playlists, doesn't it?
    i realize Apple wants me to buy the newest, bestest hardware every time it comes out. but i like my old iPod, and it did exactly what i wanted and expected. until iTunes 8. so, any fixes for these issues out there?

    This is a well-known issue. Apple changed the internal file names used with iTunes 8, which makes the ordering on 2nd generation Shuffles behave differently. There is no good workaround, apart from moving the files with a hand-crafted AppleScript program.
    Apple has been silent on the issue, so nobody knows if we'll ever have a fix for it or not.

  • Installed 8.0.1.11 for windows and lost space to "other"

    I installed 8.0.1.11 for windows. iTunes then spent a few hours updating my library. When I synced (checked tunes, I don't do manual) my 80gb Classic (which was 100mb from full), about half of my music was removed and then it started to reload. Somewhere along the way my "other" went from being around 500mb to 13gb, and my music no longer all fits. I can't figure what the "other" is. My music/photo/etc capacity is down to around 61gb. I've downloaded and installed 8.0.2.20 but no change.
    Can I reload an earlier version? Has this happened to anyone else? I have no video, no podcast subs, just music and a few pics.

    In normal usage, "Other" can be Album Artwork, Notes, Contacts, Firmware etc. or (and this doesn't apply to the iPod Touch or iPhone which don't have the option to enabled for disk use), files that are on there if you are using the iPod as a removable storage device.
    If Other is being incorrectly reported then try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes

  • Stuttering in certain videos in iTunes for Windows 7 and Windows 8

    I have stuttering in certain videos in the most recent version of iTunes in Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 8 64-bit.  The two specific videos I am talking about are video podcasts...."Windows Weekly HD", and "Security Now HD".  The strange thing is that I can play those videos in Windows Media Player, VLC, Zune, etc, and there is no stuttering at all.  I have no issue with stuttering audio with iTunes.
    Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?  It is really annoying to have to use other software just to watch certain videos.  I appreciate your time.
    Also...this has happened on fresh installs of Windows 7 & 8 on the same PC.  I have also tried removing and re-installing iTunes, and all of my drivers for my software are updated, and I have all the updates for Windows.

  • Multiple podcast login windows cause iTunes to be unresponsive.  How to prevent attempt of authentication from unsubsribed podcasts?

    I have several podcasts that I have been storing following the subscription service.  These podcasts in recent updates to iTunes have been attempting logging on (for what I assume) to check for updates to the podcasts.  This occurs at initialization of iTunes and at periodic intervals while iTunes is running.  When the login/password window appears, iTunes becomes unresponsive.  Any media that is currently playing continues to play, but cannot be paused, fast forwarded, etc.  After a period of time, iTunes becomes responsive, it can take 10+ minutes.  At this time, I can cancel the login windows by hitting cancel the number of times I have individual password protected podcasts (that I do not have active usernames/passwords for).
    I have opened the settings for each podcast and they are all "unsubscribed" and have set every setting that I can find so that the podcasts do not update, but I am still getting prompts to login causing iTunes to be unresponsive.
    I do not want to delete the podcasts, because I still want to use the podcasts and associated podcast documents.  Any suggestions on how to prevent the podcasts from attempting to authenticate?
    Note that I have had these podcasts for >1yr as unsubscribed podcasts and have not had this issue until recent updates to iTunes.  (Since 11.1 or 11.2.)

    I've had a problem similar to yours since the iTunes update in January 2014.  I have not subscribed to any paid podcasts...mine are all free, and I don't recall that any have needed a password.  Since January, when I have iTunes open and click on Podcasts, I get a pop-up window that says "Authentication Required" needing username and password.  I can try 5 times with entering username/password, then iTunes locks-up, and if I click cancel on the pop-up window, iTunes locks-up.  I start Task Manager then alt/control/delete...that's the way I have to close out the iTunes window.  Any updates since January has not fixed the problem.  In about mid May, quite by surprise, I clicked on podcasts and it opened without the pop-up window showing and I was able to click on any of my podcasts.  After another update, I was back to the same problem.  The problem has to be with that update in January.  If you run across a "fix" for the problem, please post, I'd really like to get my iTunes working again.  I use Windows 7.

  • Possible error in approving podcast for itunes

    I submitted several RSS URLs and all were approved. These were archives of past podcasts for which the list had gotten too long for my main RSS feed (360+ episodes)
    What shows up in iTunes store though is one of these archives twice, and one missing. How can I point this out and get it corrected?
    The one that shows twice is http://www.podictionary.com/archivew1 with the pointer http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=202539866
    The one missing is http://www.podictionary.com/archive4 and the pointer I was given (below) just points back to the one that shows twice http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=202527931
    winxp   Windows XP Pro  

    Hi--the problem is not with the approval process--it's just that the feed:
    http://www.podictionary.com/archive4/
    Which is the source feed for the second iTunes podcast you list below, has some incorrect info.
    The title: <title>podictionaryweekly archive #1</title>
    etc.
    So it looks like the feed for Archive 4 is just a duplicate of the feed for Weekly Archive 1. Go back and make sure that the Archive 4 feed has all the correct info and the iTunes Store will see the changes and change the entry in the Store.
