Subscribed podcasts not downloading windows 10

Looked everywhere for an answer and happened to stumble across this little nugget of info and what do you know it fixed my problem. Maybe someone from Apple needs to look at this and fix the bug. Thank you! I encountered this problem out of the blue for the first time ever today in iTunes ITunes used to be so intuitive and reliable. Not sure what has happened. Would never have figured this out. Just happened this morning, and I had not downloaded an update.

And I agree, the language seems bass-ackward. Thank you so much for solving this. Thanks again. Never had this problem before. Thanks, Dude!!!! I have lost days of my life over this! Thank you so much for an easy to follow solution…Yay!.

If you experience issues with automatic episode downloads, in particular, you must confirm that the Podcasts app's download preferences are set up properly.

Start by opening the Settings app. Then, tap Podcasts and scroll down to the section labeled Episode Downloads. Tap Refresh Every and set an appropriate auto-download time frame.

You can also manage the auto-download preferences for each subscribed show. Select a show from the Podcasts app's Library section, tap the three-dot icon to the top of the screen, tap Settings, and tap Download Episodes. Then, tweak the settings to your liking.

Your settings apply to all podcasts included in the station.

I tried calling Apple support late last night. I was on hold and then told due to high call volume I should leave my name and number. Then I had silence and a dial tone. Mar 26, AM. I used the e-mail route to report this problem to Apple support yesterday and received back a form e-mail saying that I would receive a reply from them within 48 hours. I hope that everyone who is experiencing the inability to download podcasts will contact support via phone or e-mail so that they realize that it's a serious problem which needs to be fixed right away and can't be ignored.

Not sure why it didn't work that way for you. For general knowledge, I have been on chat twice with tech support on this. They have not been able to solve it. They had me gather some info and send it to Apple engineers, who are supposed to get back with me within a couple of business days.
