Can't Login to Podcasts Connect

I am trying to log in @ https://itunesconnect.apple.com/login?module=PodcastsConnect&hostname=podcastsco nnect.apple.com&targetUrl=%2F&failUrl=%2F with the above apple ID, and one of two things is happening:

I am logged into and automatically redirected to the iTunes Connect dashboard, which offers no navigation option to Podcasts Connect.
A terms of service agreement dialogue box pops up, on which I select the checkbox agreeing to the terms and click the accept button. The dialogue box closes, and I am redirected back to the Podcast Connect login page once again. There is no limit to how many times it will perform this loop of death.

There is no perceivable rhyme or reason as to why one or the other happens. I have tried logging in on multiple systems/OS (Windows 10, Mac, iOS), and multiple browsers on each (Firefox, Edge, Chrome) and the same thing happens on all of them. I also called into Apple Support and the specialist said there’s no reason my Apple ID shouldn’t work. I’m perplexed, please help.

Thanks,

Josh

Alright so I managed to find a fix.

Apparently you need to have a device attached to your Apple-ID in some form or fashion. Don't ask me why because to that I'm oblivious.

This can either be done through using a Apple device with the Apple-ID you want to use to add Podcasts on. Or go to iTunes - Log in with the ID you want to use and then in the top bar press Account>Authorization>Authorize this computer.

And then login at https://podcastsconnect.apple.com , Voila.

Same problem here too.

Redirected me to the iTunes Connect dashboard.

Another great question - why in the **** is the podcasts dashboard separated from the rest of the admin functions in the first place?

This took several tries, for whatever reason. I had to log in to itunesconnect.com via Safari. Then, I went to podcastsconnect.apple.com and succeeded. Weird.

Nope. And Apple doesn't seem to care much, no constructive replies from to emails to support.

Well Apple's lack of concern is hardly a surprise.

Hardly indeed.

This was my issue as well. As soon as I authorized on iTunes i was able to get in. I think it has to do with agreements that you sign.

That's not the issue. The issue is that once you get there, you login, and you're looped back to a login as soon as you click "Podcasts Connect". You're never actually brought to your podcasts.

All of my podcasts have STOPPED updating and I'm still unable to loginbecause of this loop. Has anyone found a solution?

Feb 27, 2018 1:47 AM in response to Roger Wilmut1

Yeah, I have done, if only it helped! Thanks Roger!

Hi there,

I tried doing this on Chrome, but when I get to account there's no "authorize" option. Any tips?

Thanks!
