I haven't been able to download an episode since 11/18/2015. My phone says I'm still subscribed and when I try to refresh the feed it says I have no new episodes. I'm not very iTunes literate. Please help me out.

Unsubscribe from the old version and search the store for the latest versions and re-subscribe.

That did the trick. I was worried about Michael for awhile. I knew he was going to have a knee replaced sometime or another. I was hoping there wasn't any complications. Thanks again for your help.

Been wondering myself.  Sorry Mr. Bane it took me this long to check if you were still alive.  :)  Love the show and your words of wisdom!

A question for all you ITunes wizards . . .

My Itunes stopped downloading episodes after #450.  Following the suggestion above, I Unsubscribed to the old version and Subscribed to the new one.

The episodes #451 - current have now downloaded into a new folder, leaving me with two DRR folders in ITunes. Is there a way to merge the new with the old, or will I just have to live with it this way?  Thanks for the help!

Mike

Hello,

I continue to have ongoing problems with Itunes completely halting new downloads every few months. I've had to unsubscribe and resubscribe 3 times now.

I just unsubscribed again, but now I'm getting an error message that says the new "subscribe" link is not valid, and it won't allow me to subscribe to the podcast.

Can anybody help?  Many thanks.

BTW, is there a long term fix to prevent this from reoccurring? Does this happen with other podcast applications too (stitcher, etc.)?

When I click on the "subscibe" button, the error message says:

"Unable to subscribe. The provided link is not a valid podcast."

Title: No longer on Pocket Casts?

Hi.

I've been using Pocket Casts to get my podcasts.  When episode 488 didn't download, I tried unsubscribing and re-subscribing, but Down Range Radio no longer comes up as an available podcast.  Have you stopped being available via Pocket Casts?

Thanks!

Try Podcast Republic,That's what I've been using since having problems with iTunes. I think it's only for android phones.

Thanks, but I'm using IPad and IPhone and neither is working. 

Unsubscribing then resubscribing to the podcast isn't fixing the problem.  New episodes are shown in the ITunes store, but I cannot get any of them to download to a device.  When I click on the download ("cloud") symbol next to a new episode in the store, both my phone and the IPad bounce out of the store and open up my podcast application, which shows the latest episode as #490.  Nothing past #490 will download.

Is the ITunes link still valid?
