Getting Started: Step-by-Step Instructions
For those new to the podcasting universe, we've provided the following detailed instructions with accompanying
screenshots to help you along the way. So, away we go. Three things are required in order to subscribe to The Crossing's
podcasts: a computer, podcasting software (we recommend iTunes), and an Internet connection (a faster connection means a
faster download). Complete the following steps to subscribe to either of our podcasts:
|
2. Install iTunes on your computer.
|
|
3. Open the iTunes application.
|
|
|
4. In the horizontal menu appearing at the top, click "Advanced."
|
|
|
5. After the drop-down menu displays, click the third line item, "Subscribe to Podcast..."
|
|
|
6. After a dialogue box pops up, enter the following URL
(don't include the quotation marks), "http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheCrossingAudioPodcast" or
"http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheCrossingVideoPodcast" into the text area.
|
|
|
7. Now you have successfully subscribed to The Crossing's podcasts.
|
|
8. In the podcast directory on the right-hand side, find the title of the podcast,
"Windsor Crossing Podcast." By default, the latest program should be downloading
to your computer. At the far left of the podcast title, an orange circle with a rotating
arrow should display. This means a program is in the process of being downloaded.
|
|
|
|
9. Preceding the podcast title, click the filled-in triangle.
This will display the files we've made available for download (typically the last several weeks' messages).
The program being downloaded will have an orange circle with a rotating arrow
too. Any other programs not downloaded will have a oval button labeled "GET" next to it.
|
|
10. If you want to download another message, click its
corresponding "GET" button.
|
|
11. Once the program is finished downloading, select the program
you'd like to listen to. Then, you can either double-click the program title and it will begin
playing or click the play button at the top of the application window.
|
12. The next time you open iTunes, the application will
automatically check to see if the latest message podcast is available for download.
