Problem with podcast feed on windows 7

Hi
I have had the following podcast working in itunes for over 3 years.
However, a couple of months ago I moved to a new PC with windows 7 and now the downloads start, stop straight away and give a 404 error.  However, when I use my old XP pc or Vista laptop the downloads in itunes still work.
http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/stanway-evangelical-church/id277422426?mt=2
I have even copied the link against one of the podcasts in the itunes store and copied into a new browser.  When you then click play in the itunes browser version it plays.  So it is not an issue that the podcast does not exist and the server being down.
http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/6-may-2012-church-at-4/id277422426?i=11599693 1&mt=2
I would be grateful for any insight as it is very annoying.

I use Podcast Station to create the RSS file (this has not changed since 2008)
I have not changed any formats
Thanks

Hhhmmmm! There is definitely a problem.
I've just tried the first link you gave, found the Podcast in iTunes Store and selected Free for the episode of 29th July (which should download the epsiode as a Podcast). Although it looked as though iTunes was downloading it, and gave no error message when it "finished", there is nothing downloaded. (Never seen a failed download but with no error message before!)
I even tried the episode from 8th July, but with the same result. In fact, in both cases, the progress bar went straight from "looking for the episode" to "done" in the iTunes Download section. I even attempted to watch the download in my file manager. The temporary folder is created but no content arrives and eventually the temporary folder is erased.
This is a Podcast problem. Although you managed to play an episode, (in iTunes - I can't), it is a different process to "play" the file as distinct from downloading it as a Podcast episode, so that explains why it can be played in a browser but not downloaded as a Podcast.
I suggest you contact the programme's producers, since it is they who control the Podcast, not iTunes/Apple. I'm sure their first reaction is likely to be that it's an iTunes problem. It may be, (although I doubt it), but as I stated, Apple don't control Podcasts and they will not fault find this one. From previous posts about faulty Podcasts, I know that if the problem is with the iTunes Store, it will still be the producers of the programme who fault find and then report the issue to Apple.

    When I enter its URL in iTunes, it doesn't reject my feed, but nothing happens. I can see the URL instead of my Podcast's title, like on this caption : http://younderboy.free.fr/caption.jpg
    Help me please, I don't understand where is the problem ! Thanks a lot...

  • Problems with shutdown, expose and window switching

    Hi there,
    Recently I've been having a few issues with OS X. First of all it wasn't shutting down properly -- the menu bar would disappear and it would look like it was going to shutdown, but it never did. I could move down to the dock (on auto-hide) and it would re-appear, at which point I can bring up a terminal window and use 'shutdown' to do the job. On startup I'd reset the PRAM, and then do a disk-check, but the problem keeps coming back.
    Subsequently, I've also been having problems with expose and switching windows (i.e. command-tab). Namely, neither of them work. Expose won't fire from either hot corners or the keyboard, and if I re-launch the app from the Apps folder (without trying to kill it first, I should say), it does nothing. Cmd-tab gets interpreted as just tab, and the keyboard shortcut for dashboard also fails (although I can start the dashboard from the dock).
    I read in another post about an invalid jpeg in the downloads folder being able to cause the Expose problem (seems like a most unlikely bug?). Anyway, I cleared all pictures from my downloads folder and functionality came back, but now it's gone again. It's really very frustrating as it makes moving between windows a lot more hassle.
    Any thoughts would be gratefully received.
    TIA,
    Mat

    This sounds interesting.
    Can you post a copy for the rest of us to see?
    As for actually helping you, and not just satisfying our curiousity, if you start cutting pieces of the code you will probably end up finding the source of the problem (and we won't have too big a program to handle). Since DSC is a likely suspect, you may want to start there.
    Also, are you creating an installer and using that to install? If not, you may wish to try that.

  • Problem With Captivate 4 and Windows 8

    Hi,
    I've a problem with Captivate 4 on Windows 8 projects :
    The mouse is not tracked.
    I've applied the last patch for this version (11/15/2011).
    Is there another patch for this ?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi there
    I know this will come off as sounding snarky, but please know it's honestly not intended that way,
    Windows 8?
    I never was able to make Captivate 4 run successfully on Windows 7. So I'm not the least bit surprised to hear it has issues with Windows 8!
    Personally, I'm thinking you are due for an upgrade to Captivate if you want it to work on Windows 8. But then again, I'm not even certain if Captivate 6 is Windows 8 compatible.
    Cheers... Rick

    I have bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 last August 2013 and having problems with installing it on Windows 8.1.  Why am I having this problem?

    You can check you Adobe account online to see if the serial number is registered under your account.  If not then your only option will likely be to contact Adobe Support directly thru chat to see if they can provide you with a/the serial number. For them to do so will require you being able to prove ownership.

  • Problem with national characters on windows client

    Hello there,
    I'am having problem with national characters on windows client.
    All national data stored in NVARCHAR2 colums, applications (.net) works fine,
    but in sqlplus:
    select city from test_table;
    - everything ok, sqlplus shows national characters
    select dump(N'<national symbols>') from dual
    - returns
    Typ=96 Len=12: 0,191,0,191,0,191,0,191,0,191,0,191
    select * from test_table where city = N'<national symbols> '
    - always returns nothing
    As i understand the problem in
    sql query text (and national literals) convertion
    to servers "WE8ISO8859P1" encoding, Is it possible
    to solve the issue?
    Thanks in advance
    PS.
    Console in right mode (chcp=1251)
    sqlplus shows russian messages well
    Server (oracle 9 on solaris):

    N'<national symbols>', being part of an SQL statement, will be converted to the database character set (WE8ISO8859P1) before being parsed. Only if the client and the database are both 10.2 or higher, the client can encode the literal appropriately so that it survives this conversion.
    In earlier versions, you can do the encoding yourself. Instead of the N'<national symbols>' literal use the UNISTR function: UNISTR('\xxxx\yyyy\zzzz'), where U+xxxx, U+yyyy, U+zzzz are Unicode code points of your national characters.

  • Problem with RSS feeds in AppleMail

    If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it. I have several RSS feeds that come in through AppleMail. Every so often, it stops receiving all of the feeds (I get an explanation point next to the the RSS header). After a day or so, it will start receiving feeds again. I have no problem getting e-mails... just my RSS feeds. Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    I have just experienced the same problem with RSS feeds through AppleMail. A couple of days ago (just after I had upgraded to Aperture 3 - not sure if that's relevant) the exclamation mark appeared next to all the Mailboxes for my RSS feeds, and has not disappeared. If I click on the exclamation mark I get the message "there was an error updating the RSS feed 'Apple Hot News'. The RSS feed is temporarily unavailable because an internal error occurred".
    I have tried shutting down, and deleting the RSS plist - with no effect.
    Other details - the problem exists on a MacBook Pro, running Sno (v 10.6.2 - all updates applied) and Apple Mail v4.2. I can send / receive regular email. I also have an iMac (also running Sno 10.6.2 and Apple Mail v4.2) - RSS feeds work fine on this machine. Both machines use the same wireless broadband router.
    Grateful for any help. Thanks

  • Has anyone else had problems with their RAW editing window?

    I'm having real problems with my RAW editing window (the one that automaticaly pops up when you open a raw file). I've opened several images, but when I click on the different thumbnails on the left hand side the large preview image in the center doesn't change. Obviously I need to be able to see this to make the required changes.
    Any ideas/help you be greatly appreciated!!!

    Hi Kate,
    I haven't yet been able to replicate your problem. Will you please describe your workflow? Are you simply selecting multiple files from your computer and double clicking to automatically open in Camera RAW?
    Also curious, with all of your images open in the RAW editing window, what happens when you use the arrows near the bottom right? Does your image change?
    Cheers,
    Michael

  • Problems with ITunes 10 for Windows with Ipod Touch

    I have had several problems with my original 16Gb ipod touch since upgrading to ITunes 10. Windows Vista Home Premium. I had no significant problems before ITunes 10.
    1. Numerous apps upgrades fail with an error message (approx) "installation failed because resources have changed." I have searched for information about this, but all I could find relates to developers, not ordinary users. I can upgrade the apps directly, using a wifi link - just not through ITunes 10. (Apps: Dictionary.com, StarWalk, etc.)
    2. After repeated examples of this, I decided to try restoring the ipod. I've done this several times in the past without problems. This time, it repeatedly failed at step 3 of 5, re-installing my music, with "unknown error." The ipod was unusable after this. I eventually had to restore on another computer that still had ITunes 9 installed - that worked, but I lost all me recent data entries. (After successfully restoring using ITunes 9, I tried again with ITunes 10 - same failure.)
    3. Now, all podcasts that I install are played back at an unusable low volume. They are just loud enough to barely hear in a very quiet room, but not loud enough to be usable. The podcasts play fine when played directly in ITunes. Music installed on the ipod plays properly. I have tried using the Podcast option in ITunes to change the volume, but that has no effect. I have tried several speakers and headsets - all the same. Podcasts are probably the most important use of my ipod, and now they are useless. These are popular podcasts, such as CBC's As It Happens - I don't think that the originator would have had an undetected problem for this long.
    Any suggestions?

    This symptom could be caused by an unusable iTunes configuration file. Follow the steps below to troubleshoot this issue.
    Remove SC Info.sidb file
    (This applies to Win7 or Vista)
    From the Start menu, click Computer.
    In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
    Click the View tab.
    In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.
    Click OK.
    Navigate to the following location by either typing it into the address bar, copying and pasting it into the address bar, or clicking through the folder hierarchy listed: C:\Program Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info
    Right-click the SC Info.sidb file shown and on the shortcut menu, click Delete.
    Right-click the SC Info.sidd file shown and on the shortcut menu, click Delete.
    Restart the computer and open iTunes.
    If this does not work, repair your Quicktime - START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAM and FRAETURES / highlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR

  • I have read up, and am still having problems with RSS Feed

    Greetings Everyone.
    I really need some help with my RSS feed before I go insane. I would like to think I know what I am doing, but obviously there is some little (or big!) step I am overlooking.
    Ok here is my site: www.drewernst.com it is hosted by asmallorange.com
    My pocast is at www.drewenst.com/podcast
    This is the rss feed iWeb generated: feed://www.drewernst.com/podcast/The%20Jeff%20and%20Drew%20Podcast/rss.xml
    Now, from everything I have read so far - it seems that as long as you get the URL right when you are publishing to a folder, iWeb should do the rest. Also, it is important to put the whole folder containing your podcast in your root web folder otherwise it breaks the feed. Both of these things I have done. (obviously not correctly, or it would be working!)
    I read Many tutorials and topics I could find about this, but it still doesn't seem to work for me. Apple suggests taking the RSS feed an pasting it into itunes under Advanced menu "subscribe to podcast" to make sure your feed is valid before submitting to itunes.
    When I do this, I get an message saying "there was a problem downloading... An unknown error occurred (-50).
    I tried using a feed validator and it came back with so many errors. I just don't know that much about RSS, but i have been working on this for about a month and it's driving me crazy. No one I have asked at the apple store has been any more helpful than to suggest I just buy a .mac account and do it from there(honestly the nerve. wink.) I don't need .mac, I have my own website.
    Thanks in advance.

    Oh, I tried to be as detailed as possible but if I left anything important out, please just ask...I will be watching this like a hawk.

    So, my web-host said that it's a problem with the RSS feed, not there hosting.
    They pointed me to "Feed Validator" which I looked at before. I have a lot of errors.

    Shouldn't Garageband and iWeb have taken care of these errors. I don't even know how I would correct them. I thought this was supposed to be a 1-2-3 process, like the documentation of both programs said.
    Sorry if I sound sarcastic, I am just frustrated.

    Hey guys,
    Had a hard time trying to search for this problem. and nothing came up for the exact problem I was having. Anyways this is my problem. with xcompmgr is that it doesn't seem to be refreshing or something. it leaves trails of previous windows for some reason. not sure why. Anyone have this problem or someone know how to fix it??!?

    Wow psychadelic!
    I found xcompmgr to be rather buggy when I used to use it. Try xcompmgr-dana (dcompmgr I think)  or Compton. I used to use Compton and it worked pretty well.
    I stopped using real transparency in favor of pseudo-transparency because I sometimes use the tabbed mode on multiple terminals... tell me how awesome it is to read three terminals stacked on each other
