Tracks are all "unavailable"

My tracks are suddenly "unavailable" on iTunes as if something is amiss with the RSS feed. Yet, the new track is posted, it just won't play. I use Soundcloud, which works, feed to Sticher, which works. It's just iTunes.


"Janet Lansbury Unruffled"


Newest Track: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/helping-kids-through-their/id1030050704?i=35 4163647

When you enter the URL of your media file in a browser it downloads instead of playing within the browser as it should. This means that although it works in the iTunes application, the Store can't play it within its own page.

You need to set each file not to download.

Thanks so much for the reply, but that would not seem to be the problem as I have uploaded 9 other tracks over the last several weeks and there has never been this problem.

Perhaps I'll give it a day, then try your method, which seems to have worked for others.... I would like to understand why this suddenly emerged as a problem. Never had a problem until today.

Thank you again.
