itunes stopped saving my rss podcast ID/password

I keep entering the ID and password and checking the "save password" checkbox. Itunes won't save it like it used to. This is for a subscription podcast.

I am using Itunes both under windows and Mac environments. I unsubscribed from all my podcasts, resubscribed, downloaded new items. I rebooted my computer. Came in next day and reloaded Itunes and refreshed my podcasts without being prompted for a single password. I would say it is fixed.



NOTE: I hate the Itunes 11 rewrite. It seems to crawl in comparison to its previous version. A 40 MB broadband pipe is not that slow yet Itunes now is slow. Previous editions would download all new podcasts in under a minute. Since Itunes 11 podcasts download in 3-4 minutes.

I am a reaching out to my tribe b/c of the following issue that started in the last few days or today. (only heard from member today) Was wondering if anyone knew of any changes that might cause this with s2member, itunes, blubrry or any other of the moving parts... Maybe even an itunes/Apple policy change?


What happens when entering username & password into itunes Podcast Authentication Required dialogue box it returns the following message,


"The name or pw entered for erichschiffmann.com was incorrect. Please try again."

and it IS the right password foSho

Although the itunes / blubrry / s2member "podcast password subscription authentication is Broken the rss feed works fine! Password authentication and everything else.

After using blubrry to deliver a protected podcast (protected by s2member wp plugin ) for well over a year working perfectly as of yesterday it now rejects password on itunes sign-in dialogue box. What changed please help members really NOT happy.
