Itunes connect Portal Issue

If this is a brand new Apple ID - you will need to validate it. That means you need to use it to download a free app on an iOS device or iPad. If you do not have an iOS device or iPad - then you can use Apple Music to validate the Apple ID. It seems to be an issue with making sure you first approve the Apple ToS with the new Apple ID.

Once you do that - then you should be able to log in.

Try going directly to https://podcastsconnect.apple.com - it works OK for me but it may not for everyone. There are ongoing problems at Podcasts Connect which are causing some people to have the problem you describe. Apple are aware and are working on it. There isn't really anything you can do about it except keep trying. However most settings can be made directly in the feed without using Podcasts Connect - it would depend on what you are trying to do.

There is no 'refresh feed' anyway - it's apparently a victim of the redesign. New episodes can take up to a couple of daus - occasionally more - to appear in Apple Podcasts 'Browse' or the iTunes Store, whereas subscribers on a Mac or PC will see them pretty well immediately because they read the feeds directly.

Robert's advice did the trick. After I purchased a free app on appstore it validated my account.... Apple and its shticks...

My podcast has been live for 100 episodes. I can't get into the connect portal. Same problem as saevios

Trying to refresh the RSS feed because the latest episode isn't populating on some devices.
