Podcasts not updating after 11.3 iTunes update

About half my podcasts wont update since the upgrade.
I attempted to refresh and no dice. Also, tried to resubscribe to problem subscriptions, and again, nothing.
What next?

I have the same problem. After having downloaded iTunes Version 11.3.0.54....if I dare to update podcasts, play an existing podcast, do ANYTHING with podcasts, the entire iTunes freezes and I can't even move my mouse. I then do a Ctrl-Alt-Delete....go to Task Manager....and it says that iTunes is not responding. I then close iTunes....but if I go anywhere near Podcasts....the whole process happens over again.
It's obvious that there is some sort of bug going on.
Does anyone know a workaround to this problem?
Does Apple know about this problem?
Any idea when it might be fixed or are we to have to have to wait for a new iTunes Version in the hopes that it is fixed?
Thanks for the question....BradEF!

Some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0

some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0
have upgraded and some songs which used to play on iTunes 7 no longer play. album art is missing. when trying to play on of these songs, nothing appears in the playbar at the top of the window.
it seems the same problem exists in the mac os environment.

The solution I discovered to fix this problem was to create a smart playlist with all song of a kind containing MPEG. Then I went through album by album, and coverted ID3 tags using the value of NONE. This then enabled me to play the songs in iTunes 8.0 and in many cases restored the Album Art.
Thanks!

Podcast not updating in iTunes application

My podcast shows up fine in my RSS feed on my server. It shows up fine in the iTune Store.
My podcast is NOT showing up in my iTunes Application feed and shows the like there is a broken link somewhere when I try to "Update Podcast".
My RSS feed:
feed://www.nathan-russell.com/ovs/ovs.xml
iTunes preview:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-overnight-variety-show/id420386052
I recently updated my feed with 2 new episodes on August 22nd, 2011. Normally it doesn't take 4 days to update in my iTunes Application. I've previously used the email that Apple sent upon approval of my podcast to ping my server and "update" my iTunes Application to show the most recent additions but the link they provided in that email ( https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast?id=420386052 ) has stopped working as well.
Please help me determine why my updated RSS feed is not showing up in the subscription to my own podcast within the iTunes Application itself.
Thank you kindly!

You have rendered your feed invalid. 'Episode 16 - promo' contains two unescaped ampersands, one in the 'itunes:summary' tag and once in the 'description' tag"
'A.J. Finney, Dallas Orbiter & Jesse Joyce.'
An ampersand by itself indicates the start of a code sequence which is never terminated, thus rendering the entire feed unreadable.
Oddly enough, this text appears successfully in the iTunes Store page: did you change it to the uncoded ampersand at a later stage? Usually this mistake stops the Store page updating as soon as it's in the feed.
You need to replace both ampersands with the code & or the word 'and'. Once you do this the feed will work.
The 'ping' facility has been withdrawn from the iTunes Store for some time now (I'm not convinced that it ever worked anyway) - you just have to wait for the Store to update in its own time (usually 1-2 days).

Podcast not updating from RSS into iTunes

Hi,
I am having a problem with iTunes not updating the most recent iteration of the XML file.
URL for the file: http://strategiccoach.com/promotions/teamsuccess/team-success-rss.xml
Episodes 1-7 appear in iTunes, but any newer podcasts are not being picked up. It has been over a week since updating the XML and iTunes has yet to update.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Josh

Your episode of Mach 10th appear when subscribing, and the feed appears to be OK. Actually I'm surprised your episodes work as they have URLs beginning with https rather than http - this used to guarantee that it wouldn't work in the Store but perhaps they've changed that. I can't see any other problem, so it may just be that the Store is having a sticky patch - this does happen occasionally, and if this is the case there isn't really anything you can do about it except wait it out.

ITunes Podcasts NOT Updated to Podcast Page

Since Nov 25, our new posted podcasts are NOT being updated to our main Podcast page. They ARE being updated to anyone who has subscribed, but they are NOT showing up on our Podcast home page.
Have been using the the iTunes Podcasts Page for our class in Sports Broadcasting and is really causing trouble for all as we approach final exams and projects for the semester.
Could someone please tell us how this can be fixed ASAP. Could it be because of some of the recent updates to iTunes?
Thx Much

sent this to Feedback today....
We continue to have issues with our podcast page not being updated. WE missed the last two weeks of the term and are very, very annoyed that our Podcast page on iTunes was not updated during the very important end of the semester.
All worked PERFECTLY for two years, then suddenly there are no updates to our Podcast page on iTunes Since November 25, 2008.
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=250215965
Please, please help us find out how to fix and update our Podcast page.
We have sent numerous e-mails to feedback and posts to the Discussions.
Please, please, please answer us.

Why is my podcast not updating correctly?

My podcast, the jaguar tapes: https://itunes.apple.com/nl/podcast/the-jaguar-tapes/id557617194?l=en&mt=2
It's not updating anymore! The new artwork isn't showing up. Also the new episode isn't in there on the correct date.
Can someone please help me out?
cheers Thom

Your feed is at http://www.mothermusic.nl/podcast/JaguarPodcast.xml
It has 13 episodes, all of which show in the iTunes Store. However episode 13 has no date and so appears out of order; the only possible reason I can see for this is that in your 'pubDate' tag you have a comma after 2014, which is strictly not correct.
The media file URL for this episode is
http://www.mothermusic.nl/podcast/Jaguar13.mp3
and there is no file at this address.
The Podcast Image appears correctly on the Store page, and the media file for episode 12 has an embedded image. There is of course no image for episode 13 when subscribing because there is no file there.
If you have a question about your own podcast (as opposed to playing other people's) it's best to ask in the Producing Podcasts forum.

Issue with my podcast not updating to subscribers

Hi,
I recently took over podcast duties for our podcast. And around a month before I took over (mid-march) I began recieving complaints that the podcast wasn't updating to subscribers. It seems to be mostly from people using the IOS podcast ap. I am using it myself, and I can search for the podcast and find it, but as a subscriber the podcast will not update automatcially, or aknowledge that a new podcast has been uploaded. I am aware that it can take a few days to update from my feed, but it still should alert subscribers when a new podcast is uploaded.
my page https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/branches-a-christian-church/id512745759?mt=2
Thanks in advance for the help!

Your feed is at http://www.themim.com/podcasts/branches_podcasts.xml
The latest episode in it is 29 April, and this shows in the Store and when subscribing in iTunes on a Mac, so all this is normal.
I don't have an iOS device so I'm not in a position to check if there are any problems there. Your server does handle the required 'byte ramge requests' so it ought to work OK, but if it doesn't I can only advise asking in the iPhone forum - everything in the feed seems to be correct.

Help! Podcast not updating - how do I fix this?

I have been asked to look into why our podcast (Without Limits Christian Center) is not updating in iTunes. I am not familiar with iTunes at all and to be honest the specs are a little like reading Greek at this point. The web address where our podcast is located is http://wlcconline.com/index.php/?/media/podcasts/.
I know we switched servers a while back with out web host (GoDaddy) from a Windows server to a Linux. Is that the problem? Can anyone give me any guidance on what might be going on and how to fix it - preferably in English and not tech language if that is possible. Thanks!!

Roger,
Thank you so much for your help! It is beginning to make sense. I took a look at your site, and from what I'm reading there and in the technical specs for iTunes, it looks like I need to remove our podcast and resubmit it with your new URL, since our old one is no longer accessible at all.
Could you help me with one more thing? I believe our new URL would be the one below, does this look right to you? It goes to the page where our podcasts are now located. I checked with our web host, and they believe it is right, but they don't have any iTunes experience, so thought I'd check with you as well.
Also, would take any hints you have on removing the podcast and resubmitting for a new one. Our developer did it for us last time, but I'll be doing it this time so that part is new as well.
Thank you again for your assistance; GREATLY appreciated!!

Everything on iPod wiped out...now podcasts not updating

A couple days ago I had wanted to add an episode of a podcast to my iPod but wasn't on my XP account. It had downloaded to the XP account I was on, so I figured it would be easier to just update from there instead of logging off and waiting 5 minutes to log onto my account so all the antivirus stuff could load. So I plugged my iPod in and dragged the podcast episode to my iPod in the Source column (it's updated manually). Without warning, iTunes wiped out everything that had been on my iPod and started replacing it with everything on this particular iTunes library. I panicked and quickly unplugged my now empty iPod. I haven't been able to recover any of my songs except some of the podcasts. I downloaded Recover My Files, and it found a good number of the songs, but a) many have been overwritten (whatever that means) and b) it wanted me to pay 70 dollars for an activation code (first time is supposed to be free). Ever since my iPod was wiped out, iTunes has not updated the podcasts, so I manually downloaded the episodes I missed and added them to my library on my XP account. I dragged them to my iPod, and iTunes wiped out every podcast I had salvaged and left just the two I manually downloaded.
So,
1. Is there any hope for me to recover my songs?
2. Why is iTunes not updating my podcasts and wiping out my songs whenever I add new ones to iPod?
Thanks
ETA: No, I didn't back up my music, it was one of those things I meant to do.

Will the podcasts that can't be found actually play in iTunes on the computer? For the message I would say they will not play because iTunes can't find the actual file.

Podcast Not Updating! Need Help Please!

Hey everyone--
I'm by no means an expert. I was able to use feedburner to get a podcast up and running. The feed is:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/BedNazPodcast
The latest three episodes will not update. I've tried everything I can find, including a comprehensive search of these very forums. I've pinged multiple times. I simply can't figure it out. Does anyone have any advice for me? I'd appreciate it greatly.
Thanks.

Your feed has 14 episodes in it, the last being dated November 15th and entitled BCN 11/14/10. All 14 appear in the Store and when subscribing.
Your feed links to a site at http://bednaz.tumblr.com/ . This shows three more recent episodes, added 1 day ago. These have not made it into the feed - hence their non-appearance in the Store. This is something you will have to investigate at Tumblr: it's not an iTunes problem.
Once you get the episodes into the feed and republish it, they will take around 2 days to appear in the Store, though they will appear immediately for subscribers.

Many podcasts not updating on Mac and iPhone

Podcasts I'm subscribed to, do not update on the Mac or the iPhone.

Perhaps the authors are not updating them. Perhaps the authors have messed up the feeds in some way. Perhaps your firewall is blocking them. Perhaps your iTunes is corrupted in some way. How can anyone possibly know without being able to at least look at one or two and see whether they work? Perhaps you could post a couple of examples - give the iTunes Store page URL (control-click or right-click on the podcast image and choose 'Copy URL')

HT2292 Phone indicates connection to itunes on screen, will not function, after rebooting the itunes connection screen is still there.

While downloading update, itune connection screen will not go away, phone will not work even after rebooting with itunes connection screen reappearing

Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

Apps (RF 12 and GT racing) not working after downloading from itunes

Real football 2012 and Gt racing were the two apps i downloaded .. both are little huge but after such a hard hardwork
when i syn them they shows problems and sync is cancel
can anyone help ??

I had the same problem. I don't know why iTunes is not keeping track of the new version but instead is still looking at the version that is now in the Trash. I was able to manually fix the problem however.
In iTunes, right-click on the App that is not updating and choose 'Get Info'.
If the location is shown as '.../.trash' then empty your Trash.
Right-click on the app in iTunes again and this time it will say it can't find the item and there is a 'Locate' button to click.
Navigate to your 'iTunes/Mobile Applications' folder and select the new version of the App.
When you've done this for all the Apps that won't update (I had 14), you can re-synch your iPad.

Ipod not connecting after upgrade to itunes 8

After upgrading to itunes 8 my ipod (nano) will no longer connect to my computer and is not recognised by itunes. When I connect the ipod I get the windows 'install new hardware wizard' running but however I try to work through this I get nowhere. Looking at Device Manager in Windows says there are no drivers for the ipod - it has a little exclamation mark next to it.
My wifes brand new ipod will also not connect and its straight out of the box.
Not at all sure what to do next. The support pages don't seem to cover getting the install new hardware wizard. Any help or advice please!.

Having reported this to my dealer, and them agreeing to supply a new lead to try, I had one final attempt at resetting the iPod.
Having restored, reset and updated the iPod half a dozen times before without success, a reset as described here:
http://www.apple.com/uk/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
worked and it is now merrily playing again in the car with the original lead.
It would seem that Apple have developed another piece of spectacularly temperamental equipment........and people slate Microsoft!
Hope it works for you as well!
