Q: How do I get all of the internet radio stations to work again in iTunes?

I'm running iTunes ver. 12.4.2.4 under Mac OS X ver. 10.11.6 (El Capitan) on a MacBook Pro. When I go into iTunes and select the internet radio option not all of the stations under News/Talk work. For example WMAL does not work, yet I can get the live stream from Safari or FIrefox. How can get all the internet radio stations under Internet Radio option to work?

 

Please advise.

MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.5)

    I still use iTunes 7.5 so I can't verify or deny those stations working.  I don't think there is anything you yourself can do to change how they operate in iTunes.  If you can get the actual stream URL from the station's web site you can open it with iTunes and it will get added as a regular track which you can then place in a playlist you make for those stations.

     

    Edit: I could not get WMAL to play when I tried playing on their web site. Maybe their stream is down?
