Where is the podcast DTD?

I understand that Apple is not required to keep the DTD available at http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd according to the XML specification.
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/#ns-decl says: "The namespace name, to serve its intended purpose, SHOULD have the characteristics of uniqueness and persistence. It is not a goal that it be directly usable for retrieval of a schema (if any exists)."
However, the technical specification for iTunes podcasts says the document does exist, and that it exists at that location.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html#_Toc526931674 says: "The namespace declaration points to a document that defines the iTunes tags."
I am interested in making a number of podcasts available on the iTunes Music Store, but I do not have any way to programmatically generate the XML file nor can I validate the code without actually submitting the code to the iTMS. It is really nice to have an English-language explanation of some of the tags and how to use them, but that translates poorly into machine-generated code.
I don't mind that Apple doesn't have the file where they specifically say it should be (after all, the spec says it is okay for the file to not even exist) but if the file does exist, I would really like to know where it is so I can use it.
Thank you!

I recognize that feedvalidator.org is recommended by the spec for validation purposes and that manual subscription forces the iTunes engine to validate my RSS file, but without the DTD there is no obvious way to modify my scripts to generate iTunes-happy XML code -- I am thus limited to inserting hand-crafted tags. This seems remarkably inelegant for Apple, and I was hoping that perhaps I was just not very good at finding the DTD, because the alternatives are clumsy trial-and-effort kludges.

    First of all, you don't need to use CAPS in thread title, as many people will consider this a desperate shout for attention you're not likely to get.
    Then, make sure your podcasts are synced with iPod. If they are, podcasts should be available from "Music" menu. If they 're not, browse for sync options in iTunes and make them copy to your iPod. After all, if you subscribed to video podcasts, don't be surprised you can't view them on your Nan for one obvious reason... iPod Nano can't view videos.

  • Where are the podcast show notes in the podcasts app?

    I can't find the way (if there is any) to see the show notes of the podcasts I listen to through the ios 7 podcasts app.
    Where can you see them now?
    Thanks,
    Adi.

    Hi Richard,
    Sorry to say - I have the same issue re absence of Folders in Notes on iCloud.com.  Keen for a solution because I find myself working in a place with no wifi and  no 3G but have a shared windows computer on internet. I really could use Notes in iCloud, but the absence of folders makes this incomplete.

  • Where are the podcasts?

    I have an iPod with dock. I loaded a couple of podcasts on it and they show up under music-genre on the iPod itself. However, they don't show up on the iPod in iTunes. I want to manully put on and take off podcasts on the iPod because I have a nano as well. How can I see the iPod's podcasts in iTunes so I can manually delete them from the iPod?
    I did reset the iPod. Thanks for your help.

  • ITunes 12 where has the podcast lyrics tab gone?!

    I just to updated iTunes 12 and I am so annoyed that the lyrics tab has been removed from the podcast section, why would they do that? All my podcasts come with the tracklist in the lyrics and now I can't access them at all! It's a bloody joke and I can't even downgrade back to iTunes 11 without a complete uninstall of my music. It's making me want to swap media players solely for this purpose, but obviously I can't because of my iPhone, fix it apple!!

    Agree. Really annoying. I use the lyrics tab to add playlists for DJ sets. The description field has a low limit for characters so that's useless most times.

  • Where does the podcast art come from?

    Does the artwork for the podcast from within garageband3 file or the iweb page it resides on?

    Hello.
    While establishing BGP with ISP, there are three options for a client:
    > Default route (used in general) - client router forwards every request (for destination route) to ISP router.
    > Full route - ISP router's complete routing table would be received and maintained in client router.
    > Partial route - Only specific route would be received from ISP (Head office - Branch office scenario)
    ISP generate default route from their peering router that should have full routing table or knowledge of the router having it. A local ISP may generate default to their client and have one received from their upstream or global / larger ISP. Hope this helps.

  • Where are the podcast chapter markings?

    I like to be able to jump around between chapters while listening to podcasts on my iPod. However, I've noticed that chapters are no longer divided up into separate segments in the timeline bar in my iTunes window or on my iPod (although the various chapters DO still appear in the Chapters menu of iTunes).
    Does anyone know why I'm not seeing chapter markings in my timeline bar?
    Thanks.
    Mas OS 10.4.11
    iTunes 7.6.2

    After thinking this through, I do believe that this IS an iTunes issue. The Chapter menu appears while playing Enhanced podcasts in iTunes on my Mac, but the timeline bar is not segmented into chapters. When I sync to my iPod, again (not surprisingly), there is no chapter segmentation in the timeline bar.
    This is different that it used to be. I used to get a segmented timeline bar when chapters existed. I've made no hardware changes.
    I think if iTunes would supply a segmented timeline bar to my iPod, the iPod would display it. Hence, I feel it is an iTunes issue.
    Thanks

  • Where is the Podcast of WWDC Keynote 2012?

    Why does it take Apple FOREVER to post as a Podcast!!!
    Yes, I know it is on the site to watch on my laptop, IOS device.
    We like to watch it as a family on our TV and it always takes FOREVER!!! to get posted.

    Now 7:35PM (ET) and still no podcast of Today's Keynote on the iPhone5. Why oh why does Apple take FOREVER to post their important and good Keynote podcasts...Makes no Sense that the planet's best technology company cannot post a podcast faster than I can.

  • Where is the 10/23/12 Special Event Podcast?

    Here we go Again!
    Apple had another Special Event today to announce iPad mini and other products.
    Now 6:00PM (ET) and the podcast that allows me to watch the Keynote with my family on Apple TV is NOT available.
    This is the 10th straight keynote where the podcast is not immediately available.
    I am very aware that I can watch on my laptop!!!
    Why Oh why! does every poscaster on the planet make their podcasts available to the public for viewing IMMEDIATELY after, while Apple does not!!!!
    Makes No sense
    Like the stock price, my confidence in Apple (after 30 years) is dropping fast.

    I agree but it's not there...
    I know what it should do but the reality is something else at this point.
    Any other suggestions?

  • Podcast stopped downloading - note popped up telling me to press the "get" button to continue download-WHERE is the "get" button?

    Podcast stopped downloading - note popped up telling me to press the "get" button to continue download-WHERE is the "get" button?

    Thank you, Roger.
    I kind of tried this, and when I clicked on the cloud, an "X" appeared and the podcast title became ghosted!
    Had to wait a lengthy time for all the rest of the podcasts to load (I only connect with iTunes on my ext. hard drive about twice a week), and then go back and "refresh" these - they played all the way through and then were loaded.  This is just the latest mishap with iTunes, which periodically never loads my 3 subscriptions for weeks at a time, and I have to manually load them from the various sites offering the podcasts.  No one at the Apple Store knows what is wrong, and they all finally admit that it's an Apple error and not a site screwup!  I will muddle along and hope the next time I plug in my Est. HD to open itunes that this will not happen!
    Again, thanks - and have a good day :-)

  • How do i download podcast on my PC? Its asking me to type in the podcast name ending in xml but where do i find the rest ???

    How do I download podcast onto my pc? I already do have iTunes. It ask me to type in podcast name ending in xml then click on install but where is the rest of the name?? where do I find this? Might be something simple I just seem to miss. Help!!! lol

    The easiest way to subscribe to a podcast is locate it in a directory. There will normally be a link with the URL of the feed. This is like any other link but your podcatcher, iTunes in this case, knows how to read the text file stored there to access the individual episodes and download or stream them for you. If you know the name of the podcast, and it is registered with iTunes you can go into the podcasts section of your iTunes library, click iTunes Store, then use the search box at the top right. If you have the full URL for the podcast you can use File > Subscribe to Podcast..., or you can use a link on the providers web site.
    Using the iTunes directory is usually the easiest way.
    Click on the link for the podcast (4) to open the next screen,
    and either subscribe (5) or download individual episodes without subscribing (6).
