Podcasts show as already submitted

I recently had 3 podcasts removed from your iTunes store because I am changing the feed and, since I can't edit or change the source code on the prior feed (at Mevio), I had to have them canceled/removed, with the intent to resubmit them.
All three podcasts...
1. Podcast for Dummys
2. Gracie Sez Hai
3. Topical Vacation
...were removed as requested. As of early yesterday there are no traces of the show or any episodes when doing a search on any of them.
When attempting to submit the new podcast RSS feeds for any of the three, I get the message "podcast appears to already have been submitted" (to paraphrase). I understand that this is because it recognizes the title information in the podcast as being the same as what I previously had, however, again, those podcasts have been removed, so they should not be showing as having already been submitted.
Additionally, I could understand if perhaps these new feeds were already being reviewed - thus the message above - however, I have not received any email notifying me that this is the case. I know that were one to be sent, I should receive it, as another podcast I just submitted (which hadn't had a previous incarnation on iTunes) went through the submission, notification and acceptance process with no problems.
At this point, what is keeping me from being able to submit these feeds if the previous podcasts have been removed? Do I have to wait for some time to be able to submit them or have they already been submitted with their new feed successfully? Who would I contact to find out?
Thank you. I'm happy to answer any questions in order to sort this out.

It doesn't say anything about "Other iTunes Store Features" but it does have "iTunes U & Podcasts". However, in whatever way I get to the Express Lane, it keeps on asking for an order number (presumably from the store), and won't let me continue.
For now I guess I'll have to try just changing the name and hope I can change it back. Until I can get a hold of someone at Apple, anyway.
Thanks Roger!

I tried to submit my podcast but showed difficulty in downloading and later showed already submitted please help!

If your podcast was submitted but rejected for any reason then the automated part of the submissions process will give you that error despite the rejection - I assume it's a bug. The workaround is to change the title slightly.
But if they had difficulty downloading (what? - the feed, or the episodes - didn't they say) then you have a technical problem you need to address. Obviously I can't advise any further unless you care to post your feed URL.

Podcast already submitted, but never shows up

http://www.returntothepit.com/itunes.xml
that is the feed. I submitted it probably 5 years ago maybe more and it has never shown up.
When I try to add it again, it says it was already submitted and I never see any info on it.
Anyone have any ideas?

I just emailed podcast at apple dot com... let's see if that gets me anything.

When I synch my iPod w. new MacBook Pro, laptop doesn't show which podcasts I've already listened to on the iPod. (My old MacBook did do that.)

I used to download new podcasts to my old MacBook, plug in my iPod, click the Synch button, and not only did the new podcasts get copied from the laptop to the iPod, but iTunes on my laptop would show which podcasts I'd already listened to, so it was easy to delete the old stuff, synch again, and the old podcasts would be gone from both the laptop and the iPod.
When I try to do the same thing with my new MacBook Pro (which I set up using the Migration Assistant to copy apps, including iTunes, from my old laptop), that doesn't happen: When I download a new podcast, plug in my iPod, and hit Synch, the new podcast isn't copied, nor does iTunes show which podcasts I've listened to since the iPod was plugged in the last time.
What used to be quick and easy is now cumberson and, because it's hard to remember which podcasts I've listed to and which I havened, error-prone!
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The installer DMG will be in the Applications folder
I haven't tested this, but it seems somewhat at odds with this recent MacWorld article, which gives a method for "capturing" the Lion installer downloaded via the Recovery HD, and then creating a bootable installer volume from it.
Create a bootable Lion install drive for newer Macs
The article is meant for Macs that came pre-installed with Lion and therefore can't use the App store. The article describes a procedure to retrieve the Lion download not from /Applications but from a folder named "Mac OS X Install Data" which gets created at the root of the drive where Lion is to be installed. It's tricky, because normally that installer self-launches immediately after the download, and then deletes itself afterwards.
They distinguish this procedure from an earlier, simpler one that can be used if Lion gets downloaded via the App store - they reference an earlier article for that situation, which does involve retrieving the installer from /Applications. That method has been publicized in many places.
The inference for me was that the Recovery HD does not download anything to /Applications - otherwise the earlier procedure would work, and this new article would be unnecessary. As I said, thoiugh, I haven't tested anything.

Podcast already submitted?

Hi,
The feed for my podcast has apparently already been submitted although no one has access to the feed except me. Is there anyway of tracking the feed to see what it's been submitted as on iTunes?
This is incredibly frustrating as I can't find the name of the podcast etc. so I can't link people to the podcast on itunes.
Any help would be fantastic, thank you. :)`

Okay, I've been having the exact problem after hitting the dreaded "Report a Concern" button.
The advice I got was to go back into your RSS XML file and physically change a couple of lines temporarily to fool iTunes short term.
iTunes apparently has "safeguards" to prevent duplicate submissions.
so... go into your code and change the line, <title>your cast name <title> just put in anything between the <title's>
Then - change the line that reads, <link> http://whatever.libsyn.com <link> -change it to a bogus address.
Then after a day or so, change the code back to what it originally was before you messed it up with the report a concern incident.
iTunes by that time will attempt to re-parse and realize there was no duplicate submission. So, after you correct your code back to its original, and either ping iTunes or wait for it to make its regular cycle, your submission should be valid and iTunes should recognize your re-submission and list the podcast.
However, I do not know how to access my bloody RSS file in the Libsyn interface to make the changes - anyone know how I can get to my code?
I'm just passing on this possible solution - if it's wrong please correct me, I haven't been able to prove it yet.

Having problems getting podcast on iTunes, tried to resubmit and got an already submitted error

Having problems getting podcast on iTunes, tried to resubmit and got an already submitted error. How can I get the podcast on iTunes?

You didn't need to get it removed: you can make any changes to a feed that you want, changing, adding or deleting episodes, and iTunes will pick them up.
However, in the present situation you have fallen over a bug in the submissions process. The workaround is changing the title; as this hasn't worked you need to change the feed URL if possible, and also you could change the contents of the 'link' tag.
If you can't get it sorted you could try emailing Support at podcasts 'at' apple.com and asking them to reinstate you (give them all the details) - their responses are a bit variable, but they may help you.

Podcast shows up in iTunes Store but feed empty in iTunes

My podcast shows up perfectly in the iTunes store. All six episodes are there and up-to-date. But no matter what I do (subscribe, update, download all) the feed list in my iTunes program remains empty. Nothing gets downloaded...
Podcast URL: http://www.brug.nu/multimedia/diensten-gemist/?podcast
When I click on a single episode, it will download it to my iTunes\Downloads folder but will not copy it to the iTunes\Podcasts folder. All other podcasts work fine so it must be something wrong with this one.
What am I missing here?

Your iTunes Store page is at
https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/de-brug-eindhoven-kerk-voor-nu/id852875733
The episodes there play within the Store. However on subscribing it is looking for a feed at the URL you quoted above:
http://www.brug.nu/multimedia/diensten-gemist/?podcast
This is not a feed, it's a web page. Since your Store page works, you evidently had a working feed in the past, and the Store has cached this: but you have somehow substituted the web page at the same URL - unless you server is set up to respond with a web page when requested from a browser and should serve a proper when requested from iTunes. In any case, subscribing in iTunes doesn't work so it is evidently seeing that web page.
Incidentally the 'iTunes' link near the top of the page attempt to subscribe iTunes to the same web page; there is an RSS icon at the bottom of the page linking to an actual feed but this has only the header and no episodes.

Podcasts show up as on ipad, but won't open on ipad

When I sync my ipad, my podcasts show up in my library, and on the computer as being on the ipad, however when I go to the ipad, the icons are there, but when I tap them, they won't open.

Try a couple of basic troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Quit the Music App and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Podcasts show up on iPod but not in iTunes

My (old) podcasts show up on my iPod, but they don't appear in iTunes. I can't delete those podcasts and I really want to throw them away. Could somebody help me?!

Are you positive these podcasts are configured to sync to your iPod Touch? Have you double checked the configuration for podcasts from under the iPod's Podcasts configuration tab in iTunes?
To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on its name from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the iPod's Summary tab. Locate the Podcasts tab along the top and select it. Here you can choose how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.

Our podcast shows black thumbnails on iPod Podcasts screen

Our podcast shows black thumbnails on iPod Podcasts screen, im not talking about the channels logo here, that works fine.
It's when you have subscribed to the feed and the podcasts are downloaded to your Apple mobile device and you view your podcasts on screen, down the left it has little video thumbnails of the episodes.
In my case apart from one episode they all show a black video thumbnail and I want to show our logo or ideally a frame from that episode say 5 seconds in would do.
Thanks for any help.

I don't know exactly how the iPod works in this context: in iTunes, when subscribing, the image you see for each episode is either the first chapter image of an 'enhanced' podcast or an image which has been embedded in the file. I don't know what it does with movie files - possibly the first frame. You could subscribe in iTunes on your PC and see what shows there.
In any event, you should be able to embed an image of your choice in each file (you would then need to re-upload it). The method is described here:

The same podcast shows up multiple times

In iTunes, the same podcast shows up multiple times. There is only one copy of the file on my computer, and the file it located in the right location, but in iTunes, the same podcast is repeated two or more times. When I delete a single podcast and try to play its copies, iTunes notifies me that it can't find the file. I believe this happens when I use the import folder utility and add music in the iTunes music default location (which includes the podcasts as well as the music I want to import). Does anyone know how to keep this from happening?
Thanks

Well, the easiest way would be to stop using the import folder utility. Sounds like you're adding the podcast multiple times. You're probably doing it to other files as well...

My podcasts show up as music in my iPod

When my iPod (5th generation) is synched with iTunes, all my podcasts are correctly sorted separately both in my library and iPod. But when I eject and browse through my Ipod, my podcasts show up both under 'podcasts' and under 'music'. How do I organise them so they are not filed under music?

I have a similar question although I'm looking for the opposite outcome. I want to know how tracks are identified as either a podcast, audiobook or music as well. I want to take episodes of podcasts and take them out of the podcast category and put them into the music or audiobooks category instead. Hopefully someone will be able to answer this for both of us!

ITunes displays my podcast show but no podcast episode?

I was notified that my first podcast was accepted by iTunes a day ago. Here is the URL given in my acceptance email:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/just-love-walking-show/id733590672
I can see my Just Love Walking show description and the first episode from the URL above, but when I click "view in iTunes"
ONLY the Just Love Walking Show description appears but NO podcast episode.
1. Will the episode appear within the next day or so?
Or is there a problem that I need to investigate & remedy?
Also,
2. Can I make changes to the iTunes category in the future? Currently it just shows "amateur" when I was hoping it would show "Sports & Recreation" the higher level category. Can I change that in my iTunes podcast description at the feed level in my feed provider's account (Libsyn).
Thank you.
JustLoveWalking

Rob & Roger,
OK, I just did a search for the Just Love Walking Show iTunes on google and was linked to my iTunes podcast show page where I finally DID see and was able to play my first (and only) podcast!! Hurray!!
I viewed it from: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/just-love-walking-show/id733590672 and then linked to iTunes. I also could see the same display of the episode from a search inside of iTunes.
BUT...my podcast cover artwork did NOT show up in iTunes! The cover artwork has been displaying beautifully for several days in iTunes and I have NOT changed anything in Libsyn to effect any changes. My Libsyn feed is: http://justlovewalking.libsyn.com/rss
Also I just checked my own website and the podcast cover art continues to display wonderfully well for my Libsyn Wizard player embeded links on my site: http://www.justlovewalking.com/ . So what could the problem be now? My cover artwork fulfills the iTunes requirements (RGB color, 1400x1400, HD quality, etc) and as I said, has displayed on iTunes for several days!
I hope this will sort itself out soon! I'd like to be able to start promoting my podcast and to be able to tell people that I'm listed on iTunes (with cover art that I've been very careful to create correctly for iTunes).
...sorry to go on...this is frustrating...
Again your help has been really supportive and I truly appreciate all of your responses:)
Best Regards
JustLoveWalking
