Preparing for iTunes Store but...
We are getting ready to go public [iTunes Store] with our iTunes U site. For the main page we have All@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:uis.edu set to download. We also have that set for all of our podcasts, which we wish to be public.
However, when we click on one of our public podcast, it opens up the browser and then redirects back to iTunes. When we view Stanford's site, it does not do this. It goes directly to the podcast.
Is this normal for a course that isn't listed on the public iTunes page? Will this change once we are listed on iTunes Store?
Here is a link to our site:

Thank you
I am really going out on a limb here ... this is "Rich" talking, not "Apple" ... so I'm going to defer to people like Duncan for a definitive answer.
Some people/institutions charge for podcasts. None of them are in iTunes U. In fact, one of the very few reasons Apple may deny an institution's request to be included within iTunes U is if the institution is commercial in nature (my understanding is that there are a handful of commercial entities within iTunes U ... but, in each case, the circumstances surrounding their inclusion are extraordinary ... and certainly none of these entities charges users for its content).
The "correct" solution for recovering the costs associated with iTunes U is to charge your students an appropriate sum within the context of "registering for a course" ... and to use credentialling to limit access to content within iTunes to those who have actually paid and are in good standing with you. But ... my guess is that you want to bring in outsiders, not formally associated with your school, into your iTunes U site and have them pay for content. In that case, I'd still argue that the "correct" thing to do would be to setup some registration system that compensated you for access to content. However, if -I- were to go down that route myself, I'd DEFINITELY want to shoot that past Apple to make sure I wasn't crossing the line between "educational institution" and "commercial interest". My bet is that Apple is not going to want you to go down this route.

Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

I am looking to start developing apps for the iTunes Store, but I have no previous experience. What is the best way for me to start on this? As in which programs and materials must I need and what I need to know. Thanks!
You will need a Mac, with OS X 10.6+ on it, to be able to develop iOS apps.
There is some info on these pages :

I rented a movie in the iTunes Store but now when I want to watch it it says; 'cannot load the movie' while it says the download has been completed.. What now? I already payed for it.
Did you rent the movie on your iPad? Are you trying to watch it on your iPad?
Do you have WiFi connectivity when trying to start viewing the movie?
You should have answered "yes" to all the above. If not, that is probably the source of your issue. -
It will not open for me. I go to the "itunes" tab once i'm in my library, and it says "accessing itunes store" but nothing happens.
I just tried it and it works for me.

I tried buying an album off of the iTunes Store but I didn't know the security question answers. I reached the limit for the amount of answers and now it disabled my account from buying for 8 hours but I want the album by tonight! Can anyone help?!
If you've disabled your account for 8 hours then you will need to wait until the 8 hours have completed.
When the 8 hours are up, then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then you should get a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620 -

I have downloaded a CD from the itunes store but it seems to keep downloading. how do i stop this and get a refund for the unwanted CD's
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer. -

i have just download a book from itunes store but, since i don't have an iPad, i can´t read it or even see it. Can anybody help me? Can i convert it? Thanks.
Every purchase page for an ebook has a section that says "Requirements". What does that say for your particular book? That should give you the answer to your question. Conversion is normally not possible.
But there are some exceptions. Please provide the Title of the book if you want further help. -
I have downloaded a Audio Book from Itunes Store, but rencently i have had to reinstall windows, is there any way to re-download the audio book from Itunes, i know that the audio books are one time downloads, but is there any way to get the audio book back as i have already paid for it once and i would not like to pay for it twice.
If you haven't got a backup copy and if it's still in the store then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download (there is no guarantee that they will) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
