Podcasts not showing

All my vidio podcasts dont show, under the podcast folder in the vidio section.

Are they set to transfer?
Connect the iPod and go to edit-->preferences in iTunes. Hit the iPod tab, then the podcasts tab under that. Make sure automatically update all podcasts is selected. Now go to the videos tab and make sure automatically transfer all videos is set.
Click ok.
See if it works now.
Also, do they show up under music-->podcasts?

Podcast not showing up in itunes search after 1 week

i submitted my podcast with one episode and it was accepted on 17 july. i am able to get to it in the itunes store by using the url as provided in the email.
iTunes Store Welcome
Dear Podcast Owner
Your podcast, located at [ http://feeds.feedburner.com/meterdown ], has been approved. You should expect to see it in iTunes within the next few hours. When it's available, you will be able to access it with the URL below.
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260194221
i have put an icon with that url in my blog (meterdown.wordpress.com) and that works fine. people are taken to the podcast in the itunes store and can subscribe.
however when i search the store, my podcast is not turning up either by podcast name (meter down) or by author/artist name (kabi) or by keyword (taxi, bombay, hindi).
I can ping using the podcast ID (id=nnn) and it returns the podcast feed url (http://feeds.feedburner.com/meterdown) and the podcast ID.
it doesn't list an episode however. is it supposed to?
my main question is "why am i not showing up in the search?"
is there something wrong in my xml? I host at switchpod and run it thru feedburner and I use the feedburner feed.
i have read and read the forums here, feedburner, podcast alley and also am emailing switchpod support. still can't figure it out.
thanks

ssukotto,
Thanks for the information. What you mention is boilerplate that is automatically sent when a new podcast is approved. I also quoted it like scripture before diving deeper into researching this issue.
The research into this problem suggests that there is a minimum number of podcasts in order to be included in the search index (or at least the search results) whether it's undocumented or unintentional.
Case in point, Meter Down posted his first complaint that his podcast hadn't shown up in the search even after a week (far outside the 24-48 hours you mention and that is documented)..that was a week ago. A total of at least two weeks that his podcast could not be found by searching by the exact title. His podcast showed up search within a day after adding his second episode (yesterday).
Jerry Pine posted July 17 that his podcast "Everything Algae" had been approved July 13 but couldn't be found by searching...even by name. July 28th, he added a second episode as a test...and his podcast became searchable.
There are several others who went for days or weeks without being listed in search results by even searching for their exact podcast title...common trait between all of them was that they only had one episode. They added a second episode and within the day they show up in search results.
There are others that had newly submitted podcasts whose podcasts showed up within the 24-48 hours timeframe...but they had at least two episodes.
I'm just providing the facts...could be coincidence that they just happened to be searchable just after posting a second episode.
I'd invite you to read through and share with the iTunes podcast developers the several thread from various people who have reported problems with having a searchable podcasts and draw your own conclusions.

Extended Podcasts not showing all images

I just noticed that the extended podcasts that I have, which include a number of images, only show the first image during the playing of the podcast. On the iPhone or iPod Touch, the same podcasts will sequence through the added images as necessary.
Has anyone else seen this? Is there a preference that needs to be changed? Some other fix?
Thanks,
Dave

I'm seeing the same thing with enhanced podcasts on my iPad. Initially I thought it might just be the enhanced podcasts I created some time ago, but I've since downloaded an enhanced podcast from early last week. Seeing the same problem in a more recent enhanced podcast.
Chapters are working fine, but the images are not changing. Both enhanced podcasts work fine on the most recent iTunes.
On perhaps a related note I am seeing other image issues in the iPod app on iPad (album art not showing up correctly, random album images showing up).

Wrote a review of a podcast, not showing up in podcast's reviews

I wrote a nice, long - but negative- review of a podcast. It was calm, it was within size limits, it was within the TOS (no objectionable language- except the word '*itch' which I used as a quote from the podcast itself- which I just now realized as I was typing this...), and had plenty of positives, with suggestions for improving the weak points. It doesn't show up in the reviews of the podcast, but it shows up in my account as 'published'. My only option is to remove it - no chance to edit it. I really want to avoid having to re-type it, and wondered if anyone here can tell me what I should do.
Is it because I quoted that word without putting the * for the b? If so, why haven't I received anything saying that my review was inappropriate or anything that gives me a clue as to what may have happened. Thanks for any help you can give me!
(background)The podcast is spun off from a blog, which I love, but the podcast is really weak compared to what it could be.

Don't worry about the Feedvalidator error.
The Store is using the feed at http://talkradiomeltdown.com/podcast.xml - the Feedburner feed doesn't come into it.
Not filling in the 'itunes:subtitle' tag is what's caused the problem. When subscribing, the 'Description' column is presumably populated by the 'description' tag in the absence of the proper one, but the Store is not doing this.
Oddly enough your latest episode does have the 'itunes:subtitle' tag but it's not showing in the Store - did you add it subsequent to posting the episode? - if that's the case the Store will pick it up when you post a new episode.

New Podcast Not Showing Up In Searches

I received approval for a new video podcast form the iTunes store about two weeks ago, but the show still does not show up on searches in the itunes store.
The link to the podcast works fine, but it doesn't seem to exist when searched. Anyone have any insight? Any clues how to resolve?
This is the email I received:
Dear Podcast Owner
Your podcast, located at [ http://feeds.feedburner.com/DrBrown ], has been approved. You should expect to see it in iTunes within the next few hours. When it's available, you will be able to access it with the URL below.

If you have questions or wish to make changes to your feed, please consult the technical spec at http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/techspecs.html.

There is also an Apple Discussions Forum exlcusively for podcast producers, located here: http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1107. If you have a question or a problem that the technical spec cannot answer, the community of iTunes podcasters may be able to provide valuable guidance.

I'm gonna have to go with "epontius' postulate of unfound podcasts" on this one, my friend. (Look at the last post in the linked thread.) You are but one further confirmation of the hypothesis.
What this means to you is: it is becoming more evident that podcasts with only one episode are not searchable in the iTMS . . . and you only have one podcast in your feed. Update your feed, put up another 'cast, and I bet that your podcast will become searchable a few days afterward.

Podcast Not Showing up in Podcast section

I recently subscribed to Man and Wife podcast directly from the iTunes store. It shows me the number of unwatched episodes in the Podcast sections but the episodes themselves do not show up. I only see the original subscription although I've donloaded several episodes. I can only find them by looking in the recently added. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Is the list expanded? Click on triangle next to podcast name to expand list.
Some more info.
Blue next to episode indicates not played yet, changes when play has started
Play count updates after episode plays through completely
Number to right of podcast name indicates number of unplayed episodes.

Descriptions of individual episodes of my podcast NOT showing up in iTunes Store Listing

Podcast feed: http://talkradiomeltdown.com/podcast.xml
Feedburner variant feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/talkradiomeltdown
Store listing: http://talkradiomeltdown.com/itunes
I have coded my podcast feed entirely by myself, using the template provided here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#example
While checking my feed in the iTunes Store recently, I have noticed that after Episode 64, the descriptions for each individual episodes are displayed as "--", and I am not seeing a link to open descriptions of these individual episodes in a new window. This appears to be a recent problem.
I am noticing no difference in XML code between Episode 64 and Episode 65, as the template is unchanged with each update to the feed. However, I have noticed that, when checking my feed through FeedValidator.org, I receive this message:
"Your feed appears to be encoded as "UTF-8", but your server is reporting "US-ASCII"
I have attempted to rectify this issue, but to no avail. I wonder if it is causing this issue to occur. Again, this appears to be recent. Last I checked the Store listing for my podcast (a few weeks ago), I was seeing descriptions for each individual episode.

Don't worry about the Feedvalidator error.
The Store is using the feed at http://talkradiomeltdown.com/podcast.xml - the Feedburner feed doesn't come into it.
Not filling in the 'itunes:subtitle' tag is what's caused the problem. When subscribing, the 'Description' column is presumably populated by the 'description' tag in the absence of the proper one, but the Store is not doing this.
Oddly enough your latest episode does have the 'itunes:subtitle' tag but it's not showing in the Store - did you add it subsequent to posting the episode? - if that's the case the Store will pick it up when you post a new episode.

Received approval notice but podcast not showing up in iTunes

Greetings,
My podcast was approved today but hasn't shown up in the store via the link given. When clicked it gives a "The item you've requested is not currently available" message. For reference, here's the link I was given as well as my feed:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/seek-and-destroy/id792528292
http://seekanddestroy.libsyn.com/rss
Does it usually take a while for the podcast to show up in the store? The email said a few hours, but its now going on 6 hours since I received the email and the link still isn't working.
Thanks!
Brett

As an update, the podcast is now searchable and the page shows the three current episodes. The original link is the only thing that is not currently working, and still gives the "not available" message.

Created Podcast Not showing up in Itunes Store...

Hi Gang...I was wondering does anyone know y my created podcasts are not showing up in the itunes store...my rss feed has been validated and i am able myself to subscribe to it...but when i do a search it does not come up and doesnt show....also how can i find out if ppl have downloaded and listened to my show...my rss feed is jason1977.libsyn.com/rss

When I first created my podcast, I noticed quite a bit of lag between the time my feed got accepted and the time when it would be found when i did a search on iTunes... I think it was like 2 days before a search on my name or the name of my podcast would bring up my feed.
Give it a little while to all come together.

Podcasts not showing up from search

Hi, I logged in today on iTunes and noticed that our podcasts are no longer showing up on iTunes Store. I tried doing a search on 'fowler' and 'fowlerinc' and couldn't find anything. I checked the XML file and didn't find any errors, so I was wondering what I need to do to get our podcast to show again.
Thanks.

The podcast is not available in the iTunes Store. FeedValidator says the feed is valid but comments 'Feeds should not be served with the "application/octet-stream" media type' - a remark I can't comment on. They have an explanatory page:
http://www.feedvalidator.org/docs/warning/UnexpectedContentType.html
The feed downloads OK and looks to be OK, but possibly there is something going on on your server which is choking iTunes. I can only suggest contacting iTunes Support:

Podcast not showing up on desktop

For some reason, the Sept. 1, 2014 Podcast is not showing up in the desktop version of the iTunes podcast preview:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/team-beachbody-coach-podcast/id455078215
It shows up fine in iTunes and on my phone. I validated the xml file and there were no issues, any ideas why it's not there?

So I seem to have the same problem again, this week (Oct. 20th) isn't showing up on the desktop again but shows up everywhere else (iTunes, iPhone). I checked the url this time and they are different.

Watched Video Podcasts Not Showing As Watched

Hi,
Video Podcasts that I've definitely watched from beginning to end on my iPod Touch are not showing up in iTunes as being watched. I know this for sure because I have a smart playlist in iTunes called "Unwatched Podcasts" which basically lists all the video podcasts that have a play count of 0. Why is my iPod Touch not incrementing the play count by one when I watch these podcasts?

Actually, they are. I don't know if it only works if you play the video podcasts with the iPod Touch docked, but if I let the video podcasts run all the way to the end, automatically returning me to the Videos menu, then yeah the play count goes up and when I sync those podcasts are removed from my Unwatched Podcasts playlist. Good stuff.

Video podcasts not showing up on iPod

Since the recent update of my iPod, my video podcasts are not syncing to my iPod. When I sync with iTunes, I have all the podcasts (both audio and video) selected to sync but only the audio podcasts are available to me via my iPod. What's going on here?

OK, so there they are in a new place. Would have been courteous for Apple to give some clue that they were moving things around. Especially because the video podcasts still show up in iTunes in the same place as the audio podcasts, same as before. Thanks for tip, lllaass.

Favorite Podcasts not showing artwork

In the My Favorite Podcast, the Artwork is not showing, just the generic image. How can I get them back without have remove them all from my favorite list and re-adding them.

Same issue here. It happened a couple of weeks ago and I removed them and then had to go find them all again. I also have one that when clicked on says "The item you have requested is not available". So I am unable to remove this blank image from my Favorites. I think this is a serious bug. I hope Apple will bring a fix. I sure do not want to do a factory reset and sync all my stuff again just to remove this blank icon that leads no where. If anyone finds a fix other than starting over please let me know.

ITunes Podcasts not showing iPhone 4 list correctly

I download The Mike OMeara Show podcast everyday to iTunes on my Win7 laptop everyday. I then sync the podcast with my iPhone 4. However, when I look at the iPhone Podcast in iTunes, it does not show all the podcasts that the iPhone actually has. Any ideas on correcting this? It is not a big problem, the iPhone shows the right available podcasts. However, it is annoying.

HI and welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try a different USB port.
