Podcast 'get more episodes' no longer works

Hi,
I download podcasts directly to my iPhone, however I have noticed in the last week Apple has made this harder.
It used to be that if you pressed 'get more episodes' you would get a list of podcast episodes which you could then download. Underneath this seemed to do the following:
1) iPod application displayed 'get more episodes'
2) once link pressed, Safari opens goes to a certain link that then redirects to
3) iTunes, which then opens listing the podcasts, allowing you to download
Now it seems to do the following;
1) iPod application displayed 'get more episodes'
2) once link pressed, Safari opens goes to a certain link that displays an iTunes preview window, listing the podcast episodes in HTML form, which you cannot play or download.
So now, I have to go to the iTunes app on the iPhone, search for the podcast, select it, see the episode list, and then download it there.
Anyone else have this problem?
Know if it firmware version specific?
I have old 2.2
Thanks,

I have the same problem and is extremely irratating

  • IPad podcasts " get more episodes" function gone ?

    Hi all,
    Not sure if I have missed something but after the ios5 update(?) on my ipad2 podcast support / functionality seems to be reduced.
    - the " get more episodes " option has disappeared for each podcast
    - " podcast" media type has been moved to the more section, with no option to customize.
    The only way to get additional podcasts seems to be individually via iTunes and manually search for each podcast. If this is the case then this process for me is a significant step backwards.
    Hopefully I am missing something.
    Ps. Is there anyway to roll back to an old firmware. (4.3.3 ?), can it still be downloaded.
    Thanks
    Mathew

    I really would like to go back to older version instead of os5. They have ****** up my podcasts and i am ******. when I tap on the podcast playlist it doesn't play.
    Then when I get it to play by first starting the podcast in another apt then coming back into the apple app, the podcasts don't play consecutively. WHAT KIND OF A **** IS THAT!!!
    Was it because Steve Job passed away why apple is all ****** up now?
    Soon I'll be gettin rid of this piece of **** and buy a Galaxy tablet!

  • Why has "get more episodes" disappeared from the Music App in iOS5

    Since I upgrade to iOS5 I have noticed 2 "downsides" to the "iPod" replacement app "Music".
    Firstly the "get more episodes" has disappearwed from the podcast pages as has the symbols as to which track is playing or is unplayed.
    Apple please may we have these facilities back?
    Rgds, Robin

    I don't care for the changes to "music", formerly "ipod", app either.  Even the icon color is a bit much compared to the old ipod icon. 
    I really miss the "get more episodes" and hope it will be back soon.  It is a good feature, and one I used every day.
    The format is harder to work with.
    If one podcast is playing or loaded and paused, I don't seem to be able to activate a different podcast. 
    All but one or two of the podcast icons just show music note instead of podcast picture.  
    Button to switch back to list of podcast episodes seems to be gone as well. 
    Missing the played/unplayed as well.
    There is no 30 second replay button on the broadcast as far as I can tell.
    I seem to be getting all episodes listed on a podcast page, but not all of them are even loaded.
    IOS5 didn't really improve the podcast format/experience, but has made it less user-friendly. IMO

  • Get more episodes is gone in iOS 5

    A large part of what I use my iPad for is listening to podcasts. One important part of this has been the "Get more episodes" that was present in iOS 4 that would allow me to...get more episodes...without having to hunt down the podcast all over again in the iTunes store.
    I'm hoping that this feature has just been moved, and not simply removed. If so, I'd like to request that it be brought back. This makes my iPad less useful than it was before. It makes it more important that I have a computer to plug this into, not less. The cord is not cut.

    First, sorry to say and I know that I am in the minority but I don't listed to music on the iPod. I use I-Heart-Radio to listen to talk radio, watch videos, and listen to podcasts.
    This is also a feature that I have used quite a bit and while I understand that IF the podcast has been subscribed to, and IF you are within range and connected to your wireless network, and IF the iPad is plugged in, and finally IF you sync the iPad, you can update your subscriptions.
    Wouldn't it be so much nicer if the "More" button as still there?
    I love my iPad, I mean really love it! I am a converted PC user and I just can't get enough of it. I would really like to know from the Apple higher ups why items like this AND SIRI were left out of the iPad revision of IOS 5? I just can't buy the "processing power" reason.
    Enough of this, please bring back the "More" button for podcasts.
    Thanks

  • HT4291 I just bought a used iPod touch that was held out as 2d generation.  Turns out it is not.  My problem is that I cannot reach the iStore or get more episodes for my podcasts when I am using wifi.  Any help for a technical novice?

    I purchased a used iPod touch advertised as 2d generation.  I later found that it is first generation.  I can use the device for my limited purposes but only when connected to my desktop.  For some reason that I can't figure out, I am unable to download "more episodes" for my podcasts or otherwise connect to the iStore when using my wifi connection.  Can anyone provide a fix for this problem. Note that my technical skill level is about 3 on a scale of 10.

  • Why do podcast album view links no longer work in iTunes 11?

    I've recently updated to iTunes 11, and now the podcasts I have that contain links no longer work. What can I do?

    Duplicate your copy of iTunes 10.x before upgrading to iTunes 11 (or restore it from a backup) and use iTunes 10.x to listen to (and in particular access the links in) podcasts. Further, file a bug with Apple that these links don't work when the album art is displayed in the album art mini-player.

  • HT5295 Has the "get more episodes" link gone away with the new ios podcast app?  If I want another episode of a podcast, I have to exit the app and go to itunes and search for the show and episode?

    Do I really need to navigate out of the app to simply download a new or different episode in the Podcast app?  Was a simple one touch before, but maybe I am missing something. 

    Nevermind, I realize you must the have subscription button (in settings) turned to 'on' in order to manage/DL episodes.

  • When I select "get more episodes" in my podcasts it freezes

    FOr the last few days I have been unable to update my podcasts on my iPhone 4S. I have shut all apps down, restarted phone and not sure why this is happening. Any help to fix would be appreciated.

  • After installing Win8.1 and getting firefox Netflix no longer works says DRM issues, Id rather not use IE 11 please help?

    Recently went from Win 7 to Win 8.1, everything worked AMAZING till I went to Netflix(in firefox id rather not use IE 11, also tried google chrome doesnt work there either). Each time I try to watch something on netflix I get a DRM problem. Ive tried in Chrome as well doesnt work. I understand that Microsoft and Netflix have made the change to HTML5 or something on those lines but in firefox silverlight should still work right? It does in Win 7, so why not in 8.1? Anyways I am wondering if any Firefox Users on Win 8.1 have found a Fix or a Workaround to solve this problem.

    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test Netflix in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still run)''
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?
    In case your settings restrict Netflix's ability to set cookies or use local storage, you could simulate default settings by opening it in a private window while you're in Firefox's Safe Mode. That should let sites run normally but discard their cookies and local data after you close the private window.
    You can open a private browsing window using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+p
    * File menu > New Private Window
    * orange Firefox button > New Private Window
    Any difference?

  • ITunes 10.5 and Get Info facility - no longer working?

    Since I installed iTunes 10.5 last week, the Get Info facility for adding details of albums not on Gracenote doesn't work. The screen comes up as before but once you start typing iTunes crashes and quits.
    Anyone else got this problem?  Anyone solved it?
    Thanks

    I have this problem, and nothing appears to work.

  • I have an IPAD2 that I upgraded to IOS 5.  There is no option to get newer episodes of podcasts from my Ipad.  Why the feature degredation ??

    I used to be able to sync my podcasts to my Ipad2 in the previous release of the OS via the "Get More Episodes option",  That option is not in the current os or if it is its not easily found.
    Why do I have to sync my subscribed podcasts via my PC for this supposedly syncless os ?
    Why was this feature removed?
    The whole purpose of me buying an Ipad was so I wouldn't have to keep things in sync via a PC.  The previous version of the OS did an excellent job of that.  Now I have to connect at least 1 time a week to keep up.
    This is a clear feature degridation and not a very good one, and I'm  NOT HAPPY AT ALL about this.  I'm actually glad my Ipod is generation 2 because at least its still useful on the previous OS. 
    I hope you fix this bug in an upcomming release. 

    I'm also on iPhone 4, iOS 6, and have exactly the same problem. I've tried resetting privacy settings, turning restrictions on and off, deleting and reinstalling apps. Nothing seems to work. The lists of apps in privacy settings are all empty, except for location services. When using Tweetbot the app is regularly asking for permission to access my twitter account, but even when I allow that, the app doesn't show in privacy settings. When I try to go into the camera roll from the Facebook app, the app tells me I have to allow access to the camera roll from the privacy settings - which I can't do since the app is not listed there.

  • Libraries-MS no longer working

    Under the heading of Libraries-MS (i.e. Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos) I get the message "no longer working - Delete headings, folders will not be affected".
    Pictures are stored elsewhere, but documents I cannot access/or save new ones. I do not know what this means or why it happened.
    How do I rectify this?

    Hi
    Maybe one of the "folders" were deleted or the path to the folder has been changed...
    The Libraries are just shortcuts to different folders/places on the HDD.
    Start your windows explorer and click right on one of the libraries (ie. Documents)
    Then choose properties
    Now you will see the connected folders. You can add or delete the single folders which would contain the documents.

  • Thinkpad T440s - ClickPad no longer working, not listed in /proc/...

    This started earlier today. My clickpad used to work fine, now it's completely non-functional. I'm currently using a Logitech wireless usb mouse, which you'll probably see in dmesg&co below.
    Some observations:
    if I just boot and don't touch anything except entering my credentials into gdm to login to GNOME Shell, (not touching the mouse/clickpad), I don't have a pointer at all. Touching/clicking the clickpad does nothing. Neither device is in /proc/bus/input/devices. If I move my mouse, the pointer appears and works normally, and I see my Logitech mouse in /proc, but the clickpad still doesn't work.
    Here's some output of various commands/files:
    xorg log
    dmesg
    proc/bus/input/devices  <-- clickpad not listed
    xinput <-- clickpad not listed
    lspci
    lsusb
    Here's some troubleshooting strategies I tried:
    - Reboot
    - Suspend, resume
    - disable/re-enable clickpad in BIOS
    - reinstall synaptics
    - uninstall/reinstall laptop-mode-tools
    - shutdown, remove battery, unplug, hold down power button for 2 mins (clear cmos?)
    - weep/pray to Linus
    - boot an Ubuntu live usb, confirmed clickpad is *not* working there.
    - Update BIOS
    - Tried reconnecting keyboard/trackpoint, wasn't able to access the connector, but it looked securely fastened
    None had any effect.
    I tried starting the synaptics daemon manually: syndaemon. But I get this: Unable to find a synaptics device.
    I also tried removing/reloading the kernel module with modprobe, but I'm not sure which module is the right one. psmouse did not do the trick.
    I looked through /var/log/pacman.log, to look for culprits, but the last major thing to be updated was systemd/linux on the 18th. The ClickPad was working fine this morning (suspend/resume worked fine). Specifically, it stopped working when I was in the car heading home for spring break. I had just compiled OpenJDK8 before I left, and installed "netbeans-devel". I suspended my laptop by closing the lid, got in the car. Reopened it, and then began to mess with Java 8. A suspend later and my clickpad was no longer working. I restarted, and it was working again. Then I suspended it for the rest of the trip. Upon getting home, it no longer worked and I haven't been able to get so much as a wiggle of the mouse pointer since then.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Haha!
    I had the same issue.  Touchscreen worked fine out of the box but the trackpad/pointer was unresponsive.
    Did you try using:
    https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86 … rackpoint/
    On another note, I had a good experience with their hardware support. Cracked my touchscreen and jumped through the same hoops.  Great turnaround time (<1week).
    Alright, I've got my laptop fixed. Lenovo informs me that they replaced the motherboard. After putting my SSD back in, the touchpad works now! So it looks like it was definitely a hardware issue for me.
    And yeah, lenovo support was incredible. They were very nice on the phone, didn't mind that I kept my hard drive, and they gave me 1-day shipping all over the place. I talked to them on the phone on the 28th @ 17:00 GMT-6, received my box on the 29th and sent it right back out with the laptop in it. They received it the 30th, fixed it the 30th, and it would've been back to me the 31st if that weren't a Saturday. So, I received it today.
    Oddly, though, they accidentally sent me an (extra) repair box to my apartment- which I'm not at right now. /me shrugs.

    Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
    My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
    They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
    However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
    I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
    Anyways I digress.
    So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
    At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
    All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
    Answers in a postcard :-)
