Podcast no longer available

My podcast, The PiratesWeek podcast, has been available for almost a year on ITunes. Now it no longer shows up in the store. It still downloads from the feed, but when I try to access it from the URL apple sent me when I set it up http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=296086995 I get an error that it is no longer available in the US. I tried to re submit the feed URL to ITunes, but I get the error message that the feed is already registered.
Any Ideas? The show has been going weekly since 3/05 and been on Itunes since 11/08.

There are basically two possible reasons for a podcast disappearing in this way: a technical problem in the feed; or that the Store has removed it because of content it objects to.
A technical fault normally results in the podcast remaining but not updating, and usually it can't be subscribed to manually either. I was able to subscribe manually (from the 'Advanced' menu, which accesses the feed directly without involving the Store). The FeedValidator report highlights what it calls 'potentially dangerous content' in line 156: I don't know whether this might upset the Store, but if it was there when the podcast did in fact appear, probably not.
So I can't see any obvious technical problem. This leaves the possibility that it has been removed; though I would have expected that you might receive an email telling you so. Reasons for removal include objectional (i.e. sexual or racist) language, or inclusion of uncleared copyright material. Only you can tell whether you have used uncleared material - in other words copyright recordings used without written permission or a licence from an accepted authority.
You could try asking Support, though others' experience suggests that the answers tend to be formula and unspecific: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/podcast/

  • As of today, many podcasts no longer available on Apple TV. Why?

    As of today, many podcasts no longer available on Apple TV. Why?

    The offering list does not look any different to me.  The 15 or so I have flagged are all still there.   You would need to contact the pod caster and ask why they stopped distributing their pod cast via iTunes.

  • Neglected podcast "no longer available in the U.S. store"

    We started our podcast over a year ago, and then took an, ahem, "hiatus."
    Today we resurrected the podcast, but when you click on the icon for our podcast, it says "the item you've requested is currently not available in the U.S. store."
    But if I try to resubmit the feed, it says that feed has already been submitted.
    You can't report a problem with a podcast if you can't even log onto it. You can't "report a concern" because you get the error message first.
    I need to either edit or delete this podcast, but can't figure out how to do either.
    Help? Thanks.

    This is a problem at iTunes. My subscribers are still getting the feed. I contacted iTunes and have gotten "cut and paste" answers. No real feedback why my podcast was pulled.
    I will now have to resubmit my podcast and change the feed as iTunes says that the current feed has already been submitted.
    I will lose thousands of subscribers, as the feed will be changed.
    I sure wish iTunes would give me a clear idea why the podcast was pulled. This way I could make any adjustments if needed. Instead, although I have reached out to iTunes, I have no answers.

  • I accidentially deleted podcasts from 2010.  I want to retrieve them, they are no longer available on line.

    I was in ITunes, in my Podcasts list.  I hit the icon (semicircle, with an arrow pointing clockwise) and all my podcasts were deleted.  They were also deleted from my IPod.  The podcasts were from 2010 and are no longer available in ITunes.  Is there any way to retreive them?

    Ok, the main thing is not to use the SD card or place anything on it.
    The photo's are still there, not overwritten yet.
    Here's a interesting set of posts I've found, read all of them and make a decision.
    PhotoRec is not easy - requires terminal skills and Rosetta installed - does a good job - free
    EXIF UnTrasher is free but has partial success
    PhotoRescue by DataRescue is payware - does a good job
    You need to LOCK your SD card (little slide switch) before connecting to the Mac or it tries to write a file on it and will overwrite some of your data your trying to recover.

    Good Luck, I hope you get your files back

  • Airtunes is no longer available in Podcasts v2.0 for iphone 5 (same for Music app).  Is there a fix?

    I noticed after the latest Podcasts update that the ability to play podcasts via AirTunes is no longer available.  Since I don't play music on the Music app, I don't know how long that's been happening there.  But neither app offers airtunes.  Other (non-apple) music apps are correctly showing the airtunes selection drop-down. 

    You have to set airplay from the Control Center screen now. You can get there from any app by "swiping up" from the very bottom edge of the screen. Then you'll see volume controls, the airplay button and other handy controls. It's quite nice once you know where to look.

  • Why is Podcast 606 Football Phone-In no longer available in Ireland

    Attempted to download Podcast 606 Football Phone In, it is a football phone in show from BBC Radio 5 in the UK. iTunes tells me it is no longer available in Ireland, just wondering does anyone out there know why?

    It says the same for me but for Ireland read UK. (I am in UK btw).
    Have had to download from BBC website and sync it onto iPhone.

  • Podcasts no longer "Auto Delete"

    Hello,
    Wasn't sure which forum was best for this but just wanted to voice my frustration with Itunes 7.7 and the fact that my podcasts no longer "Auto-Delete" after being played. I checked my settings for each podcast and they are still set to "AUto-Delete". If anyone has any suggestions, please respond.
    Thanks!

    The auto-delete functionality in iTunes refers to deleting the podcasts from your computer. The control for removing played podcasts from the device is on the podcasts tab available when the device is attached.
    Whether or not podcasts are auto-deleted from you computer is based on the podcasts settings in iTunes. The settings button is on the bottom of the podcasts page (next to the undelete button). In the popup window under "Settings for:", select "Podcast Defaults" to change to default for all podcasts, or a specific podcast that you want to behave differently from the default settings.
    When choosing "Podcast Defaults", the two selections at the bottom of the window will be unlocked. When choosing any single podcast, uncheck the "Use Defaults" checkbox to unlock these fields.
    Changing the selection "When new episodes are available:" will affect how many (zero, one, or all) podcasts to download.
    Changing the selection "Episodes to keep:" will affect which, if any, podcasts are auto-deleted.
    As to removing podcasts from the device, this changed for me with the most recent update to the iPod software. Podcasts are removed from the iPhone if they have been played, but they remain on the iPod until they have been deleted from iTunes. I have not experienced a case where a podcast persisted on the device after it was deleted from the computer. I am hopeful that Apple will fix this with the next iPod software update.

  • A film I downloaded is no longer available in iTunes Store

    A film I have purchased from the iTunes Store is no longer listed when i do a search (top right hand of iTunes application.  For the avoidance of doubt the podcast associated with the film does come up so I am sure I am typing the name correctly) and therefore no longer available to download following a recent, accidental, delete!
    Is there anything I can do to get the film back or is this one of the penalties of NOT purchasing a proper DVD and something I must expect to happen from time to time?

    Dear King_Penguin,
    I do hope you don't mind me troubling you a little further on this topic but in light of your kind reply I would like to know if there is a "Built-in" backup option in iTines, beyond the one I found on the Apple Support Forum (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751), which suggests one simply copie (drag & drop) the ...iTunes\music\ folder to a secondary hard disk OR offers the "Backup to Disk" option which requires countless CD/DVD's to backup a library of more than a few Gigabytes, which any library containing a few movies would easily exceed? 
    Once again many thanks for your kind reply,
    youse sincerely,
    Andreas.

  • BBC Radio is no longer available on BT Internet Ra...

    I am receiving a message on each BBC station on my BT Internet Reciva radio device that Real Media stream is no longer available from the end of May. Can anyone advise how I get to use my internet radio again?

    The BBC Real media streams have been gradually disappearing but don't worry - there are WMA alternatives for all of them, and internet radio is alive and well. BBC internet radio has been in a bit of a muddle recently as they switch to iPlayer. I think they took their eye of the ball with regard to internet radio sets for a while.
    https://radios.reciva.com/ is the place to go to find the alternatives.
    There is also a discussion forum here https://forum.reciva.com/ where you can ask for advice from other users and where reciva.com staff also keep an eye on things.
    http://www.iplayerconverter.co.uk/ also has a lot of good feeds "prepacked" for all the BBC stations - you can put them in your podcast section on reciva.com - I often find that is the best way of getting what I want. I have a feed for each BBC station I want, from that site, one for "today" and the other for "listen again" and they are all available on the radio screen once you have programmed them all in via reciva.com interface.
    I also have a BT Internet Radio and it is still doing everything it used to do. No - they aren't available any more, but there are other models out there - all discussed at reciva.com.

  • In previous version of Itunes I could view what was phyically on my nano by clicking on "on this device" this no longer available. How do i view what is on my nano?

    In previous itunes software I could physically see what was on my nano my clicking on "whats on this device" but that is no longer available. It was their on the summary page I believe. How do see what is on this device and then I could edit old podcasts?

    I don't know how you received an upgrade for iTunes.  You make it sound like it was sent to you.  At most your computer will tell you of a new version and you tell it to download it and install it.  However, a computer will not do this for a version which is incompatible.  iTunes 10.7 came out a few weeks ago but your computer would not notify you and even if it did, 10.7 would refuse to install on your computer.  So this part isn't making a lot of sense.
    Two ways to get the 'newer version' message.  One is to open your library on a computer running a newer version, and then try to open it with an older version.  Usually happens when the library is on an external and used with multiple computers.  The second way is if you have multiple versions of itunes installed on your computer.
    The newest (and likely the last) iTunes for OSX 10.5.8 is iTunes 10.6.3 which has been out for quite a while.

  • Podcasts no longer automatically download in iTunes 11

    Hello all,
    I've been Googling this and searching the Apple forums for some time now and can't seem to find this exact issue... close but not exact. If it's there and I missed it, please kindly direct me to said thread! Thank you!
    Anyway, since upgrading to iTunes 11 (now using 11.1.3) - or maybe it was the upgrade to Mavericks, I'm really not sure - my subscribed podcasts no longer automatically download. When I hit the refresh arrow next to the podcast title all the new available podcasts appear in the list, but now I have to click the little cloud with the down arrow next to each individual podcast to start the download process. Extremely annoying! Especially if I haven't been able to download for a few days and have twelve or so in the queue.
    None of my settings have changed, and I have double-checked the settings which are: Subscribed is checked; Keep: All Episodes; Download: Most Recent Episodes; Sort Order: Newest on Top; Play Order: Oldest First.
    It used to be when I refreshed the podcast queue all new episodes started downloading immediately and automatically. Now, as I said I have to click on the cloud/down arrow to the right of each podcast. On occasion I will notice the podcast STILL did not download to my hard drive and instead was just streaming. I'll have to click again to download.
    I have plenty of hard drive space on my external hard drive, which I have been using for years with no issue until now.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!
    ~ Angela

    I was away from my home computer for 3 weeks.  I have lists of podcasts with the cloud  download symbol.  Is there a way to get (download)  all the missed podcasts onto iTunes so I can put them on an iPod for listening?

  • Feature to disable touch screen when pen is detected is no longer available in windows 7

    In N-trig drivers  with windows vista there was an option where one could select the option to disable the touch input when pen in near the screen.  That feature is no longer available when I installed new n-trig drivers in win7.
    I use my tablet a lot to take notes. But with dual mode on it detects input where I rest my palm on the screen to write. Every time I have to go and disable touch input completely before I start writing and enable after I finish. 
    I there any way to enable auto mode with Windows 7 n-trig drivers?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Thanks for your reply.
    I talked about this with HP tech support and they don't know anything about it. I don't even know whether they are qualified enough to provide support. They were just blaming the problems on Microsoft and N-Trig. I knew the problem is with the drivers and I wanted them to let N-Trig know that people like us are waiting to the Auto feature. But instead of considering my complaint they hung up on me not once but twice.

  • Error msg,please help :) "The item you tried to buy is no longer available"

    Hi there, I am using a Macbook pro with Leopard with the newest version of iTunes. Many, many times when I have tried to purchase the newest episode of LOST, I click 'purchase' and type in my information and click 'yes', and for an instant it says 'purchasing' and shows the striped purchasing par across the top for only an instant, and then that disappears and an error message comes up, saying
    "The item you tried to buy is no longer available.
    The availability of the item changed while you were using the store.
    The same item may be available with a different price or elsewhere
    on the store."
    In past weeks, I have been eventually able to purchase the episode, after trying to purchase and receiving the same error literally hundreds of times. Why do I try hundreds of times? Because I want to see LOST! And I will have to face the wrath of my disappointed housemates if I fail to present the episode in time. But this is very, very, very, very frustrating! Please help, iTunes! Or anyone, any help will be greatly appreciated. But this glitch has been going on literally for weeks/months! I expected it to be ironed out and fixed completely by now, but it is not at all, it is just as bad as it was when I first noticed it shortly after the beginning of LOST season 4, a few months ago.
    Also, when I try to email iTunes, I am sure that I can email iTunes if I finally pick a subject that does not apply, but I do not want to do that.
    It is also very, very, very frustrating, whenever trying to email iTunes, to be forced into picking a subject from a very, very limited menu. Many questions, such as this question, do not fit at all into any of the choices presented, from which a person is forced to choose a subject, before being allowed to type an email to iTunes.
    I look forward to any help anyone can give regarding this error message, so that I will be able to purchase the new LOST episode from iTunes. Thanks for your help!

    I had the same issue this morning downloading a pre-order of Alanis, Flavors of Entanglement . I noticed that the only thing that had changed fro me was that I had some song credits for purchasing ticketmaster tickets over the past few weeks. When I went ahead and spent my remaining credits... it downloaded with no prompting or trouble. Maybe the credits issues hangs it up?
