Hi Will, >got the podcasts to play but is there way to check the download >status of currently downloading podcasts >thanks,w ill
You can check on the status of a podcast download in the Sources outline, in the same way you can check on the download status of anything you've purchased from the iTunes Store. Here's the quote from an earlier post in the March purchasing music thread: Once you've purchased a song, you can check that the download has started by tabbing to the Sources Outline and typing "Dow" to move to "Downloads" (which appears when a download starts) and hear "Downloads 1 item" (or however many are in progress at the time). The progress bar also shows up for sighted users in what would be the Songs Outline area, but you can't tab into other areas when you are positioned at "Downloads" under the Sources Outline. Eventually you'll hear the count under "Downloads" go down by 1, or else the entry will disappear if there are no more downloads in progress. I usually move the VO cursor up and down again in the Sources Outline to make sure I'm hearing updated status information on the download. HTH. Cheers, Esther
