Problem with my podcast downloading to iTunes

The last 2 days, my podcast http://www.rippernet.com/Rippercast/Podcast/Podcast.html has been unable to be downloaded via the iTunes Music Store. People can subscribe ok and have the episodes downloaded into iTunes but cannot get it via it's Music Store page. I get the error message "There was a problem downloading 'Rippercast-Your Podcast on the Jack the Ripper Murders'. The URL http://www.rippernet.com/Site/Podcast/rss.xml" could not be found on the server." It worked fine for roughly month up until this.
I use iWeb and iDisk with a dotmac account for my podcast.
Yesterday I used Dreamweaver to add a line into the rss feed for Music Store artwork, but was having problems a day before this.
Any help would be appreciated!
Jonathan

I've gone into the rss.xml file located on my idisk at Web/Sites/RC/Podcast and edited it in Dreamweaver to input the 'itunes new feed url' script to match the one that itunes says it cannot find.
What seems to have happened is that my Url was changed somehow from "rippernet/Site Podcast" to "rippernet/rippercast/podcast/podcast"
Is this the right rss.xml file I edit for the iTunes Music Store? Does it just take a while for iTunes M.S. to refresh?
Is there any support for helping mac podcasters deal with these iWeb-iDisk-iTunes Music Store issues? I don't even know if the problem is on my end or lies with iTunes. I'd rather not tinker anymore with the rss.xml file if I'm not even sure the rss feed is the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I record 2 podcasts this weekend and the next 4 weeks are booked with guests.
Thanks

Problems with unheard podcast playlists in iTunes 10.X

I listen to a lot of podcasts and, as such, I have a smart playlist for them called "unheard of" which selects out everything of:
*Type = podcast* and
*Play count < 1*
This has had issues over the years, but right now the problem is that periodically it stops populating. I get new podcasts, but they don't go into the list. This usually gets resolved if I restart iTunes, but that brings me to the next issue…
1. When I run into problems with iTunes and try to restart it, often it won't restart. The window goes away, but the dock icon indicates Application not responding. I've let this sit overnight sometimes, but the result is always the same — I must +force quit+ it. It feels like these two things are related.

I've let this sit overnight sometimes, but the result is always the same — I must force quit it. It feels like these two things are related.
On a related note, why is the default setting for podcasts to have *Skip when shuffling = yes*? There appears to be no way to change this default behaviour and this means I have to go in and select all my podcasts before I sync my iPhone and change this value. I don't even see to see any way to access this via AppleScript or I'd change it that way. The worst is that this seems an entirely arbitrary setting to begin with. What is the benefit?
Oh, and I'm running the latest of everything, including OS X 10.6.5 and iTunes 10.1.

This is still not resolved and I seem to find that if I put my machine to sleep and then wake it from sleep, the playlist problem appears and iTunes will hang (stops responding) if I try to shut it down. Can anyone help me?

Problems with iTouch applications downloaded from iTunes

I'm having problems getting 'free' applications from the iTunes APP store to work on my 16gb iTouch. During the installation of the 2.0 firmware upgrade, I got the message: "iTunes could not connect to the "iPod" because an unknown error occured (0xE8000001)."
Apple had me do perform a restore of the device, but it did not fix the problem. Anytime I start an app, a new window opens and then immediately closes.
Is anyone else experiencing anything like this?

Your suggestion worked wonderfully. Normally I just hit the square button and the screen goes blank. I thought it was off?? However, if you power down by hitting the button in the upper left and the square button in the lower middle, the turn power off comes up and you slide the slider. Let sit. Now boot the ipod using the exact same procedure by simultaneously pushing the upper right button and the lower middle square button. The apple logo now appears. When you hit your apps now they should not freeze and jump back to the main menu.
I still am having difficulty with the long time it takes to back-up the touch. It does this before syncing podcasts and other items. I forgo backup every time by hitting the little "x" in the upper center of itunes which says backing up "owners ipod". It the reverts back to syncing.

Problems with Quicktime when downloading new iTunes

I was trying to burn an audio CD from an iTunes playlist, and kept getting error message. So I went to the Apple site to download the newest version of iTunes, to see if that would help. I got the file (iTunes75Setup) downloaded. When I opened it to install iTunes, however, it proceeded into the installing of Quicktime, and partway through it gave me an error message (error # 2738) saying the installation of Quicktime failed, and Quicktime is needed for iTunes functions, so I should try installation again later. I tried a few times and got the same error.
The thing that confuses me, I already HAVE Quicktime installed on my computer separately, and working just fine. (Version 7.1.5) So why do I need to re-install it with iTunes? (Particularly since it seems to be the part of the process that is causing problems.)
Does anyone know how to fix this error, or if there is a way to upgrade to the new iTunes without requiring a re-installation of Quicktime? Thanks!

I am having this same type of problem. When I try to open the new iTunes it says there is a Quicktime error (it cannot initialize). I've tried uninstalling both iTunes and Quicktime and reinstalled them without any luck. Does anyone know how to fix this??

Problems with Films not downloading from Itunes!

I just bought a film on Itunes, but it will not download, it just says "Wait...."
what shall I do?
Will I get invoiced even though I have not got the film down on my IPAD?

If you use automatic syncing, you need to set up the iPod's Music tab. Select the iPod in iTunes. Toward the top of the iTunes window is a row of "tabs" (or buttons) that starts with Summary. Click on Music there.
This is where you tell iTunes how to sync music to your iPod. Make sure Sync Music is checked. Below that, set up the Music tab as desired. If you added new songs to your iTunes library, those songs must be included in your selection on the Music tab, or they will not sync to your iPod.
If you've done the above and the problem is something else, please post back.

HT1725 Problems with playing tunes downloaded form Itunes store.

I have downloaded some tunes from Itunes store. The download is completed, and I can't download it again. When I play the tunes in Itunes, they get aborted after short or longer period of playing. What can be the reason for this?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Here's My Problem With the Podcasts App

So, here's my problem with the Podcasts app on my iPhone 5 - it relies too heavily on streaming and not enough on downloading and syncing. For most of my 8 hrs at work each day I am out of contact with my wireless carrier. And the hospitals IT dept has chosen to block whatever port the Podcasts app uses to stream content. So nothing over Wi-Fi either.
As a result, all podcasts must being fully downloaded and ready to listen to prior to leaving for work. Unfortunately, even after fiddling with various settings in the app, I can't seem to get content to stick in the app. There are plenty of Unplayed episodes, but when I'm ready to listen, they're not really there and must be re-downloaded or streamed.
Here's what I am going to try:
• iTunes will continue do all of the downloading and syncing of podcasts to my iPhone
• In each Podcast on the iPhone I have Subscribe "ON" and Auto-Download "OFF"
I'm going to try this setup for a few days and see if it resolves my issue. Would appreciate any other observations and suggestions you might have. Cheers!

Simple really:
Delete the Podcasts app from your iPhone.
Restart your iPhone.
Continue managing your podcasts from iTunes, like you did under iOS 5.
After restarting your phone, Podcasts will play via the Music app on your phone again.

Can no longer play podcasts downloaded on itunes on 2nd generation shuffle, is there a fix?

Ever since the latest version of itunes was unleased (Apple is so going downhill if this is any indication) my ipod Shuffle 2nd generation (I have 2) will not play podcasts downloaded on itunes. I get orange, green, orange, green lights and then nothing - because the ipod cannot recognize the files apparently. They both do the same thing, I load, they show up as loaded on itunes, I press play, the lights. If I download the podcast from the originator site directly, they play no problem. I have the latest update for the Shuffles, have reset them numerous times and yet the problem persists. I only use these Shuffles to load podcasts daily. I remove them as soon as I listened and then put new podcasts on the next day. Why do I have 2? Because I bought a second one when this started and I thought the Shuffle was broken - now both act exactly the same. Even old podcasts that played fine months ago will not play on the shuffle any longer. Is there any fix? I assume someone else is a podcast listener and is having this same problem and maybe has a solution.

Switch the mode to single plat, not shuffle.

What is the problem with the newest version of iTunes (Failed to install - error 7

What is the problem with the newest version of iTunes (Failed to install - error 7 & missing MSVCR80.dll) - the DLL is not missing. tgried to install today and it failed - what a waste.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall go to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

Problem with pdf display downloaded from application server

Hi all,
I have a problem with displaying pdf downloaded from application server (saved in BINARY MODE).
I am getting the pdf output of adobe form in FPFORMOUTPUT-PDF as rawstring back to my program and then converting that rawstring into binary form using the function module SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING.
Now, when I export the data to presentation server directly using cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download, the pdf is downloaded properly.
However, when I save the data to application server file by looping at the internal table obtained from SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY and using TRANSFER, and subsequently downloading the file in "unconverted format" from AL11 to my desktop, I am getting a "blank" pdf file (with the same number of pages as the one downloaded using gui_download).
I have tried different encodings during download but in those cases i get corrupted pdf message. only the default option of INTIAL value seems to work.
I am forced to believe that there is a problem in my code which saves the data to app server but I cant find any solution that is logical. Any solution to this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sasi

used a program to read the file from appl server and then downloading it to desktop.

I 've a problem with the print function of Itunes

helo , i 've a problem with the print function of Itunes.
When i'm trying to create a pdf file of my entire library, i've got a partial file of it.
instead of the entire library (37000 songs - 209GByte) the pdf file contains only 18000 songs (1GB - pdf file).

Problems with song's names in iTunes Store

So, I have a problem with song's names in iTunes Store on my iPhone 6+ 128. with 8.2
You can see it on attached screens.
I tried to change the font size and erase the phone and then install it again by default. The problem manifests itself on 6+ and didn't on my iPad with the same program version.

That's really curious. Sorry I don't have anything else by way of potential solutions to offer, but it may be worth contacting Apple about this one.

Your content is stored locally on your computer, when you update, it will not mess with your content at all.
