Using iTunes

Using iTunes

iTunes directly supports Podcast subscriptions. Any feed within vPortal that includes MP3 or MP4 enclosures may be subscribed to using iTunes using the steps that follow. iPod users may find this method preferable to using third party RSS clients because content downloaded from vPortal is made immediately available for iPod synchronization.

1.	Download and install iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

2.	On the vPortal RSS page, click on the iTunes icon to subscribe to a podcast or vodcast. iTunes will open automatically and begin downloading the most recent item in the feed.

3.	After retrieving the items from the feed, you will have the option to select which audio files you wish to download to iTunes.

4.	Once files are downloaded, you can put the files on your iPod or listen to them directly in iTunes.
