Like the title says, I have been trying to create a Automator workflow to refresh podcasts and then sync to my iPhone. I have tried complicated and simple, but I can't get it to work. I just want to get certain podcasts like Rachel Maddow onto my phone. They post overnight and I don't have time in the morning to refresh, download and then sync.
I have iTunes set to update hourly, so that gets my podcasts overnight (Settings-Check for new episodes-every hour). I am down to two actions, Quit Application, where the application is iTunes, then Launch Application, where the application is iTunes. I launch this by creating a daily event in iCal which launches it. I always get an error.
The log reads as follows:
Quit Application completed
Launch Application failed -1 error
iTunes got an error: Connection is invalid
What does that mean? How can I make this work? Is there an easier way to do what I want? Is there a better way? Is there an app or AppleScript that will do the trick? Please help!
Thanks,
Mark
