WHY NO "NEWS STAND" FOR PODCAST SUBSCRIPTIONS???

Ok, now we've got News Stand app, but why no auto updating Podcast Center for people who listen to a ton of podcasts? I don't want to have to manually go into iTunes on my 4S and download them one at a time. Come on Apple, time for an auto-refreshing Podcast Center app with customization features.

You might also take a look at Shifty Jelly's Pocket Casts app. I've used it on my Android and recently downloaded it to my iPhone. It's great! It works with Notification Center. It automatically downloads the podcasts I've subscribed to. The customer service is also very good. Check it out.

Why no new firmware for E71 (product code:0569371)

Now, normally I would not care but over the last couple of months everyone keeps blogging about the new firmware for their E71.
I have paid a full price for mine in the US (Newegg) so that I would not be constrained by some provider limitations.
Well, now I find out that everyone else in the world, including the US, but that one product code (0569371) has received their updates, some even two and I am still stuck on the original 1.0 release.
Can anyone one over there at Nokia explains this to me like a 4-year-old, why does Nokia punishes owners of this particular product?

Having exchanged a few polite emails with NA Nokia devission I got this today:
"Nokia is consistently working to improve our product services and realizes the software update is important to you. I regret to inform you, that I do not have a release date for the firmware update to your Nokia E71 device. Please continue to monitor the Nokia Software Updater (NSU) for updates for your device. "
So, I have decided to go on a mission to provide potential North America buyers of the Nokia phones sold in US about the support they can expect. Do I think this will help? I doubt it, but what else can I do? Class action suite?
I frequent these mobile blogs/forums on daily basis: Nokia Phone Blo, nokiAAddict, UberPhones, Mobile Tech Weblog, IntoMobile, MobileCrunch, Symbian-Guru, Mobile88. You can look thre for my ongoing comentary.
Go ahead Nokia, mark this thread as "resolved"

Why Are Think Tanks Removing Podcast Subscriptions from iTunes?

Over the past year a few of the think tanks have ceased to use iTunes to host their podcasts. The most recent is the New America Foundation, which chose to move to SoundCloud as a host platform. Sadly, this erodes the one stop sourcing that makes iTunes valuable to podcasts listeners.
Does anyone know why such professional nonprofit organizations are finding iTunes suboptimal?

Or, again, they might just not have remembered to update their feed. If they list feeds in a lot of places, it wouldn't be that hard to just forget one or two. New America still claims their podcasts as being on iTunes:
http://newamerica.net/podcast
though nothing new has been listed in a couple of years, so I'm guessing that they just didn't change the feed, or for some reason weren't able to get it changed, as opposed to it being a decision not to list with iTunes.
Regards.

New fix for Podcasts app

Hello,
After a long period of bad problems with Podcasts app, I finally got it right.
This is a fix so simple to do that most people will do it wright first time. There is no need to call your Mac Geek friend to help you.
This fix solves all problems you have with this app, even the one that is eating up your data plan in iOS6.
This fix also works with all iOS devices on iOS 5 or iOS 6.
You must have an Macintosh computer with the latest iTunes installed in order to this fix works right. (I guess).
Here is the fix:
1) Connect your device to your Mac and make the backup ofr your device. After the backup is done, disconnect your device.
2) If you have Sync Podcasts enabled in iTunes, unenable it and hit the Sync button on the lower left side on iTunes. iTunes will not send any Podcast to your device.
3) Now, it is important to have in the iTunes (Mac) all subscriptions your devices have. If you don't have, it is the right time to do it. Subscribe to exactly same shows. We will use it again later, don't skip this step.
4) Open in your device the Podcasts app and and unsubscribe all your subscriptions.
5) Press Edit in the Podcasts app. In your iPad it is located at the upper right hand side and in your iPhone it scroll up all your show icons and the Edit button is located at the second bar from top to botton. Press the X and delete all your subscriptions.
6) Kill Music and Podcasts apps. Hit the Home button 2 times and press the X icon on the upper left side.
7) Go to iTunes in your Mac and open the list of App you have and delete the PodCasts app in the list and delete the Podcasts app in your devices.
8) Now, connect your device again and wait it sync.
9) In iTunes (Mac) click in your device on the left side of the window, and select Podcasts index on the top of the window. Click on Podcasts. Enable Sync Podcasts. Enable Automatically include all unplayed and episodes of all podcasts.
10) Press the Sync on the lower right side.
11) In your Device open the Music app, you will see Podcasts returned to work in the Music app.
12) Now you can listen to your podcasts and it keeps sync of what your are listening.
Deleting the Podcasts app was the only way to make it work right.
Hope it helps you too.

This also does not restore the ability to add podcasts to music playlists - a function that I used on a daily basis to mix spoken word audio. (Podcasts, audiobooks, MP3s) I often listen to these playlists outdoors in a cold climate and cannot unbundle myself to switch between apps. Thanks Apple, for making things more difficult!
I'm getting tired of ripping all my podcasts into AAC or MP3 in order to accomplish an operation that used to be effortless and if there is not an official fix for this by the time I receive my bonus in February, it is going toward an Android phone! (I've already purchased an S3 for my wife for Christmas to compare.)

ITunes loads, but freezes when it checks for podcast subscriptions

For the last week, I have been getting lock ups on iTunes and Firefox. It seems it started just before I updated to OS 10.4.10, but it may have happened when I installed the update. Essentially, iTunes is unuseable. I can use iTunes for a couple of minutes as long as I am NOT online. As soon as I go online, the application freezes within 30 seconds. I have repaired permissions. I downloaded 7.2 again last night and the new 7.3 this morning but still the same lock ups.
Any help?

Me too. Well I haven't used firefox but iTunes freezes within seconds of trying to download podcasts.This is only on my eMac. I tried all sorts of things but the one that works is quite tedious. first back up everything and then delete everything and i mean everything. Launch iTunes go into preferences/ podcasts/check for new episodes and click on 'manually' that will give you time to back up without iTunes freezing. Then download "AppZapper"- http://www.appzapper.com/ or AppDelete - http://reggie.ashworth.googlepages.com/appdelete then delete everything, download iTunes and re-install. then reload everything. A real pain I know but it worked for me. Good Luck.

Image Issues for Podcast Subscriptions ...

Hello,
I have 4 podcasts ...
1 - http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=129007909
2 - http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=218809522
3 - http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=218809521
4 - http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=218809523
Podcast 1 was submitted many moons ago, and the correct image is displaying. I simply edited the RSS feed for the other 3 (from the first one) and submitted them to iTunes. They were accepted.
After this, I realized that the image was not uploaded where it was supposed to be. So, I uploaded the image.
Is there anything else I need to do? Or does it just take some time for iTunes to update the podcast?
Thanks for any help you can give!

From Apple's technical specs page...
http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html
If you need to request that iTunes update information about your podcast immediately, you can ping the iTunes server in one of two ways: using an XML POST or by entering a URL in a browser.
The XML POST should be addressed to https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast and formatted as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodCall>
<methodName>weblogUpdates.ping</methodName>
<params>
<param>
<value>PODCAST_NAME</value>
</param>
<param>
<value>http://FEEDURL/</value>
</param>
</params>
</methodCall>
where PODCAST_NAME is the title of the podcast, exactly as it appears in the <title> tag, and FEEDURL is your podcast feed URL.
You can also ping the iTunes server to update your podcast information by entering the following URL into a browser:
https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast?id=FEEDID
where FEEDID is your iTunes podcast numeric ID. You can also use:
https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast?feedURL=http://FEEDURL
where FEEDURL is the url for your feed.
Regardless of the ping method you use, iTunes will return an HTTP 200 code.

Why are my podcast subscriptions not automatically downloading?

Some of my podcast subscriptions are not automatically downloading. New subscriptions are, but subscriptions that previously downloaded automatically no longer do so. When I re-subscribe, it does not solve the problem.

How long on average does it take for the ITunes site to see my new changes?
Thank you.

Office 2011 is the current boxed version for the Mac. The two versions are Home and Business. The difference (besides price) is that the Business version includes Outlook. Both contain Word, PowerPoint and Excel.
Actually, the Home version also has Outlook hidden on the disk. If you decided later you want to use Outlook, you can call Microsoft for an unlock code to install it from the Home version disk. The unlock cost is essentially the difference between the Home and Business versions.
You mentioned Office 2013, but that's the current Windows version. MS hasn't really stated one way or another if there will be a feature comparable boxed Mac version. If there is, it looks like we won't see it until sometime in 2014. To get the current functionality of Office 2013 in a Mac product, you'd have to purchase the subscription based Office 365.
It does depend on your needs. Often, Office must be used for true compatibility with people you work, or collaborate with. It also has many features the free alternatives don't offer, and can't import or replicate. Otherwise, as Gary noted, Open Office is a good free choice.

Why Does IT Take SOOOOO Long To Get New Shows And Podcast Updates!!!!!

Why Does IT Take SOOOOO Long To Get New Shows And Podcast Updates!!!!! It seems to me that it takes and unusually long time for TV shows to be uploaded to itunes and it takes FOREVER (VH1) to get Podcast updates. Also I notice that Vh1's Best Week Ever is a hit or miss deal. Some weeks it's on iTunes and some weeks it's not......why?

The iTunes store simply provides a link to the originating podcast server.
When the podcast owner puts a new episode up, it is available.

How do I create a non-apple ID account for a new adminstrator for a Podcast Site Manager

http://myinfo.apple.com is inoperable. I need to create a new account for an Administrator for our Podcast Site Manager account. We have one that no one can access. Can someone assist or point me in the direction of someone at APPLE that can? I called their helpdesk and THEY couldn't even help.
Concerned...

I'm afraid I don't know anything about this: it doesn't appear to be relevant to ordinary podcasts. Is this an iTunes-U matter? - perhaps that forum would help.

How do I move my iTunes podcast subscriptions to a new computer?

I have a Dell computer running Windows XP.
I just purchased an Inspiron laptop running Vista and want to move my podcast subscriptions (I have a lot of them) to the new installation of iTunes on the laptop.
I cannot find any instructions on how to do this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks. - Love my iPhone!

Probably the most straightforward way to get iTunes onto your second computer is to network it with the first one and copy your iTunes folder across. Start by consolidating your library. When you consolidate, any songs in the iTunes Library that are not in the iTunes Music Folder are copied to the Music Folder and the Library is updated to point to those new files. Files already in the iTunes Music Folder have no changes made to them: Copying all your iTunes files to one location - Windows
Copying the whole folder brings with it the iTunes Music folder and also the iTunes Library (iTunes Library.itl in Windows) database file which holds all the information about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). You'll get more information including the Folder/File structure in this article: What are the iTunes library files?
When you copy the iTunes folder make sure you put it into the same location on the new computer. On a PC the default location is \Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\ (or C:\Username\Music\ in Vista). You should also use the same version of iTunes on both computers.
You can also use this method with an external hard drive, you drag the folder from the first computer to the external drive and then from the drive to the second computer.
If you have and iPod, some iPods can be used as an external drive and you can use them to move your iTunes (this option isn't available with the iPod Touch): How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If you have any iTunes purchases in your library don't forget that you'll need to authorise your new computer to play them. Also if you are disposing of the old one remember to deauthorise it so you don't use up one of your allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

Why can I no longer, after having downloaded Lion, write accents and other diacriticals when in the Google, Yahoo, FaceBook, or even here in this post? The new method for getting at the "option" symbols works fine in other places like spotlight, but now even the older "option+letter" doesn't work in most places.

Chrome doesn't support the new accent/diacritics/macron chooser. I'm not sure about other browsers such as Firefox. You can use the old Option+letter combination that Doug suggested. Hopefully updates will solve these little incompatibilities shortly.

HT4889 Migration Assistant to update my new Mountain Lion iMac from an external USB hard disk drive, it is constantly saying that it is "looking for other computers". It doesn't find the external drive. Why is it looking for other computers?

I'm trying to use Migration Assistant to update my new Mountain Lion iMac from an external USB hard disk drive. I told it to look for a drive, yet it is constantly saying that it is "looking for other computers". It doesn't find the external drive ... it just endlessly looks for other computers. Why is it looking for other computers at all, when I told it not to?

Wow, the wording in Migration Assistant is misleading. I've never used it before, so I thought I would try to copy my files from the external drive ... my old iMac died, but I managed to get everything I need off it, using the 'cp' command in single-user mode. So I guess I'll just have to manually copy the files from the external drive to the new machine. I was hoping that Migration Assistant might help somehow, but obviously not.
Thanks for the quick reply!
