Podcasts won't refresh when subscribed but will when unsubscribed?!?

The topic says it all.
Win 7 Pro 64 bit / iTunes 11.3.1 (the latest) / all other hardware well ahead of spec
In the past, I'd had an odd phenomenon when refreshing podcasts - old episodes would appear long after they'd been downloaded, played in their entirety, etc. Only 1-2 of them, easily deleted. A pain, but a minor one.
Now we have a showstopper - podcasts that are subscribed won't update. The update icon appears etc.
Then I unsubscribe. Suddenly the podcast in question (e.g. the episode for the most recent day) appears with the cloud download icon as usual. I can download it with no problem.
Now the insult-to-injury part: re-subscribing to the podcast makes the file disappear from my library!
It's the understatement of the year to say this is contradictory, Bizarro-world behavior. Devising a desperate, random workaround is all very well but hardly a desirable, permanent fix.
I have uninstalled. I have manually cleaned. I have reinstalled. I have burned incense but so far have stopped short of worshiping graven images.
This is the part where I take a bitter swipe at Apple but even the most phlegmatic user must wonder aloud how such chaos is possible especially given the enormous user base.

My microphone won't work when in Speaker mode, but will when in regular mode. What is up with that?

My iPhone's microphone will not work in the Speaker mode, but will when in Regular mode. The microphone works even when in bluetooth mode. This was sudden and no updates have been made recently, but it is up to date with the software.

I took it to the apple store and it was determined to be a mechanical problem. Since I had apple care, they replaced the phone.

Podcasts dont download to mobile devices but play when synced to them?

my podcasts won't download on mobile devices but they work when synced from a computer, what am i doing wrong?

If they will play it's not a problem with the format, but if your media files are being served by a script rather than a direct link that might be an issue. I can't check it on an iOS device, not having one, but if you post the URL of your feed it might possibly tell me something.

Imported Songs Won't Play in iTunes, but will on iPod

I recently imported many songs from a hard drive into my iTunes library. I then updated my iPod with these additions. The songs play on my iPod but will not play in iTunes, or allow me to create a playlist containing these songs. I get a message saying that "the song _______ could not be used because the original file could not be found."
When I reconnect the hard drive, the songs play, but when it is disconnected, they won't. I tried to "authorize computer", but that didn't do anything.
Any suggestions for how to fix this issue?
Thanks.

Are you saying you have music on an external drive and it won't play if the drive is not plugged in?
You are not very clear with your question, but I wonder if you tried to add them to your library on your internal drive. If so take a look at:
Edit>Preferences>Advanced>General
Is "Copy files to Itunes Music folder when adding to library" checked? If not the songs would be left on the external drive.
If this is the case, you could plug in your external drive and then consolidate your library. This will copy ALL files not in your iTunes Music folder into the iTunes Music folder.
If you intentionally keep some of your music outside the iTunes Music folder you may want to think about the implications before using Consolidate.

HP Officejet 4620 won't copy or scan but will print

My HP Officejet 4620 all in one printer won't copy or scan, but it will print. When trying to scan, my computer first shows a window "preparing to scan" then it changes to a window "scanner unreachable". When trying to copy the printer indicates "now copying page 1/1" but it never produces a copy. The light never goes across the flat glass, photographing the image to be scanned or copied.

Hello @Alan_Mc,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand when you scan a document it states scanner unreachable and you cannot copy a document either. I will do my best to assist you! I would recommend following this entire HP document on A 'Scanner Unreachable' or 'An error occurred while scanning' Message Displays when Scanning on the ....
Since you cannot copy a document either, there might be something wrong with the scanner glass. Also, the light doesn't appear. If so, then follow this entire HP document on A 'Scanner Failure' Message Displays on the All-in-One Control Panel and You Cannot Scan, Copy, or F...
I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!

Two of my podcasts won't refresh.

They had been working fine for months, but now for some reason two of mine won't refresh even when I pull down the refresh screen. Its very frustrating. Any tips?

I have found refresh works after I log off of iTunes (Goto iTunes Store, Click your id at the top (maybe right click) and select logoff). Inconvenient, but better than not having it refresh at all.

Podcasts won't sync unless 'subscribed'

Not sure if this is a bug, or the way itunes is meant to be, but several podcasts I had downloaded from the itunes store appeared in my 'podcasts' list in the library, and I could play them on my mac, but they would not sync to my ipod (clickwheel model).
Turned out that while I had downloaded these episodes, I had not "subscribed" to the podcast by clicking on the 'subscribe' button above the podcast. When I subscribed to the podcasts, they began syncing to the ipod just fine.
I am assuming this is some sort of bug in the software: why should I be restricted from listening to single episodes from unsubscribed shows on my ipod but not on my mac, even if there were some reason itunes wanted to force me to subscribe to shows?

First I have heard of this problem. Could it be something specific to Mac version.

Battery charges when asleep but will NOT charge while awake

Hello -
By battery will charge when off/asleep but will not charge while awake. It just slowly drains to nothing and dies even though adapter is plugged in. magsafe adapter light is green when open/on and orange when off/asleep and lights on battery indicate charging while in the latter state. still using stock battery that came with computer when I got it a few years ago, so it's not new by any means, but when fully charged lasts as long as it used to. I would think maybe charger is issue, but it DOES charge, just not while awake. not sure why computer wouldn't still work correctly while plugged in if in battery indicator it says power source is "power adapter," but its not. I have tried resetting PMU and calibrating battery. the combo of the two seemed to work when having issue a few months ago, but it just started doing it again. frustrating because once it dies I have to wait several hours until its fully charged again, so it cramps the workflow... any ideas? battery info from profiler below.
Cheers,
Ian

Scott - Your answer ultimately led me to the answer, albeit months later, after much internal deliberation and some trial and error... thanks!
Ruled out battery (as crazy as that sounds - it's had a bajillion cycles) as it didn't make sense that battery would charge but wouldn't work while awake. I have a friend whose battery is completely shot and his still works as long as magsafe is plugged in, and mine wouldn't even do that. tried another adapter and that worked. then tried mine in a different plug. so in the end, turns out I had a bum powerstrip... mag safe / battery recharge works properly when just plugged in somewhere different.
So no need to buy a new charger or battery (yet!)
thanks to all,
Ian

External disc won't mount in Leopard, but will in Snow Leopard

I have a 5-yr-old G5 networked to a new iMac. I have had a 1-TB external HD attached via Firewire 400 to the G5 for about a year. Yesterday it didn't show up on the G5 desktop. I went to this forum, searched under "disc won't mount", got some ideas, ran DiskWarrior and Disk Utility...but nothing worked. They all said the disc was fine, directories rebuilt, etc., but it wouldn't mount. This AM it occurred to me that I had the correct cable, so I tried plugging it into the iMac instead. It worked. The data is safe, the disc shows up, everything seems to be OK, but it won't mount to the G5. Why would that happen, and how can I mount it to the G5? And how likely is the disc to remain accessible?

May I hop onto your thread as I have a similar problem.
I have a 5 year old G5 PMac with 10.5 onto which I have daisy chained two UltraMax 1TB firewire 800 drives. For the last 5 years I have been able, even with out sharing enabled, to connect to the G5 from a G4 Graphite with 10.4, a G4 Powerbook with 10.5 and now a MbP with 10.6.
After completing the login dialogue in the past from any other mac it would give me a list of the G5, it's Hard disk, user directories and the two Firewire Drives. On selecting them the drive would mount onto the desktop as a network drive. This went well until monday when it became temperamental in the morning and after a few restarts and one successful mount it has not shown up since. If I come to the G5 via the Go > Connect to Server I get a dialogue "Could Not connect to the server because the name or password are incorrect". If I try to connect via the network icon in the side window of the finder window I get a network dialogue log in, I get a list of folders and drives but then when selecting the FH drive get an error message which relates to the alias to the G5 Server requiring deleting or fixing.
Originally it just connected without any messing but now unless i make the firewire drive a shared drive the process on the other macs cannot see the firewire drive. NOTE - After having made the internal boot HD of the G5 shared, I can now see and mount this drive from the other macs but not the external drive.
This is causing me to pull my hair out, I have run disk utility, powered down unconnected and reconnected everything .The HD's appear to be working ok from the G5.
I urgently need to connect the FW drive to my G4 to do some work but it also needs to be connected to the G5, has anyone got a clue why I cant get G4 (or any other mac) to mount G5's external FW drive

TS1398 my phone when connected to wifi wont download apps and internet but will when using 3G

my iphone wont download my apps or internet when using wifi but will with 3G

If you do not use cellular data then you can't be charged for something you don't use. You could turn airplane mode on and then turn wifi back on when you have wifi available and you want to send pics if you are paranoid

Superdrive won't play burned audio, but will play store ones

Superdrive in late 2008 Macbook pro won't play audio from burned cd, but will play store ones
burned CD will play on other Mac's including late 2011 Macbook pro

The problem is 2 fold.
You must use good quality Media. Not bargin basement cheap media. This more than any other thing is a huge problem. I find that using 16X DVD-R Media. This is the most recognised of all media for player, and computer recognition.
Most users make there biggest mistake by buying cheap media and then can't fiqure out why they have a problem.
Next It is a Software problem. Apple's media can sometimes be a problem to learn and use and is very limited as to it's capability.
I find that if you plan on doing a lot of burning you need to have a top of the line software.
http://www.roxio.com/
This software comes with several features, This software will burn
Video TS
Audio
Data
And most importantly has an automatic compression feature, that will compress Video TS folders that are larger than 4.7gb to fit on a standard 4.7gb disc.
If you plan to do dvd burning here are 3 links that will not only back up what I have stated above, but gives all users a ton of important information.

After Update printer won't print to pages but will to emails

My iMac Intel did an update and since it was done my printer won't print for pages but if I print an email it will print.

Update Pages to the most up-to-date version and then restart the computer while resetting the PRAM. If you don't know how to do a PRAM reset, please click Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets. If that does not fix it then please post back and we can take some other steps.
