-50 "unknown error" when downloading?

I'm running iTunes 10.6.1 (7). I have a season pass to download all new episodes of Mad Men, but today when trying to download the latest episode, I watch iTunes try for a few seconds to initiate the download (progress goes from 0K of 2GB to 180KB of 2GB, resets to 0KB and then tries again, two or three times) and then it fails with this message: "There was a problem downloading ... An unknown error occurred (-50). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again."
Things I've tried:
- closing iTunes and restarting; I get the same error.
- deleting the original file and retrying the download; same error.
- disabling the iTunes store in Parental Controls, then re-enabling; same error.
- upgrading to newest version of iTunes (I had been running a slightly older version earlier this morning); both older version and 10.6.1 (7) give me the same error
I have a network connection, and other parts of the download (i.e., the "bonus" materials connected to this episode) downloaded fine.
Help?

myacereporter, I didn't have any problems downloading the episode of Mad Men titled "Tea Leaves" for my season pass, but I keep getting the exact same error with episode 2x02 of The Killing "My Lucky Day". I've tried everything you tried for the Mad Men episode for my download of The Klling, and it still won't download properly, and I don't know what to do. I hope the people at Apple correct the problem that you and I are having with our downloads soon. I paid for a season pass of The Killing, so I think people who buy season passes should be able to count on getting the episodes of shows downloaded properly the day after the episode airs. I wasn't able to watch the two hour premiere of The Killing on TV last night, and I don't plan on watching the first episode until I have the second episode downloaded. I hope Apple are aware of these problems with the Mad Men and The Killing downloads and are already trying to fix the error so it can be solved soon.

Unknown error when downloading, importing playing or removing music

after using itunes for al little while I get an unknown error that itunes has encountered an unknown error and needs to close. it happens when I use Itunes while downloading content from the store, importing a cd just playing music or when I'm removing duplicate songs.
It doesnt matter what else I have running on the computer, I've disabled everything before running Itunes. A fresh installation of Windows doesn't help either.
It also does not matter how many songs I have in my library even if I have just 1 song it will shutdown because of the unknown error after a while
does anyone have similar problems or can somebody help me with this problem?
I also heard somebody talking about Itunes Pro, Is this just a rumour or is it actually available anywhere?

Unknown error when downloading apps

Hi
I have this problem on both my Mac and my iPhone. When I first got my Mac and my iPhone, I used my family member'ss Apple ID, and downloaded a lot of apps. Afterwards, I created my own Apple ID.
I'm facing this problem now where everytime I update (free) apps, it would ask me for my old apple ID information, which I don't have anymore.
The only option I see is to delete the whole app and re-download it again on my ID. It worked for 90% of my apss. However, there are some apps that still show up on the updates page of App Store, after I deleted it. And when I try to download it, it would ask for the password of my old apple ID (where I originally download with). I change the email and password when I was prompt, and it gives me "unknown error" "We Could Not Complete Your Request, There was an error in the App Store, Please try again later(4).
I was wondering if anyone can help me out.
Thanks.

TS1702 unknown error when using the app store

unknown error when using the app store

Im sorry I will try to be more clear.. and I appreciate all of ur input. Wi-fi works fine.. everything opens and functions fine on the I pad. The problem is I will click on app store or the I tunes store...it opens fine and I am able to look at and download apps etc... but after being in the appstore or I tunes store for a couple of minutes I get kicked out to the I pads home screen. Its like pushing the home button but I didn't. It only seems to do this when im in the app store or I tunes store. I have been using the chrome browser and other downloaded apps such as ebay just fine with out this problem occurring. Not sure about safari as I dont use it and use chrome instead. Um I don't think the home button its self is faulty because it works fine and as stated before this only happens when I am in the appstore or I tunes . I've only had this I pad 1 64gb wi-fi for a few days .. I got it off of ebay it was stuck in restore mode getting error code 1611. I was able to successfully Restore it with I tunes and it running ios 5.1. Seams to work great besides the problem being mentioned.

I received the error when downloading, An unkown error occurred (-50), but it is not my network, that is working properly

I received the error when downloading, it says An unknown error occurred (-50), which seems to indicate a network fault but my network is fine.

V3 LOOKUP Reply (Call In ....) Error: NFS3ERR_NOENT -   This is by design of OneFS, we coalesce files and then flush them out to disk which is why the commit time is accurate but the file is not immediately available. however when an async option is used within the mount options this should be avoided if writing asynchronously to the cluster. Has anyone else seen this behavior lately? (current workaround is to store locally and transfer to the cluster via Finder)

That error can happen for many reasons...one of the reasons that I occassionaly get it is because I try exporting a movie to an external drive that has been formated in the old FAT32 instead of the NTSF standard. FAT32 only allows for file sizes up to 2 gigs. And as soon as it reaches that...I would get that error. I don't know if that is why you are getting that error...but it would be easy to check. 1) are you generating a file that is over 2 gigs? 2) is your drive that you are exporting to FAT 32 (just right click the drive in My Computer and select "properties" then just look for what it says next to "file system".
