And what exactly is problem 1008?

I am having very similar issues as the many (apparently VERY many) folks frustrated by error 5002. I am having trouble with pre-orders, getting error message 1008.
I have the latest version of iTunes. Everything on the computer is fully updated.
Not to get too "511" with my music preferences, but by way of sharing my problem's "context":
I was able to pre-order a George Michael album - that had no advance single available - with no problem. However, while trying to pre-order Mariah Carey and Madonna's upcoming releases - both of which have free, advance singles that purchasers receive at the time of pre-order - I get error message 1008. Coincidence? Conspiracy? I have no idea. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Same thing here. Unable to download full albums.
The error message I get is:
"An unknown error occurred (1008). There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later."
Well, I have been trying for 3 days, without any luck.
If I use song credits I can download individual songs. Trying to complete an album afterwards fails. Gathering from the above comments, the problem seems to go away once all credits have been used. However, I am not willing to try that out, just to see if it works. I'd like to spend my credits a little more discriminately.
Where are the pros? Do they have any answers. Methinks, this is not an isolated problem.

  • Heap Measurement: jstat (and what exactly it reports)

    Hello,
    while doing some heap measurements (on a 1.5 JVM) I found some contradictory values for heap size by different means. Using a JVMTI approach ( iterateOverReachableObjects() and iterateOverHeap() ) has given me some values which I could bring in harmony which values given by -XX:PrintClassHistogram. As those two approaches give identival values I have found 3 other ways which report another 3 identical values, which are significantly smaller than the first two.
    Those (last 3) approaches are using:
    - jstat -gc
    - Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory() - Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory() (inside Java)
    - ManagementFactory.getMemoryMXBean().getMemoryUsage().getUsed() (inside Java)
    As those values do not correspond to anything I could evaluate using JVMTI I would like to have explained how those techniques work and what exactly they report.
    jstat is one of the three. I guess it helps if its measurements are explained to solve my problem.

    From my experience, manual reports, for example, are created in a tool like Excel.
    A business analyst will extract data from a source system and create a report in Excel for other business users. This often happens for Monthly and Quarterly reporting cycles.
    Many businesses are choosing Oracle Hyperion to automate this process.
    Using a system of servers and software Oracle Hyperion can extract data and create reports automatically. This helps to improve efficient as well as data quality and allows everyone to analyze the same values the same way across the business.
    Does this help?

  • What can i do about my quickly dying ipod and what is the problem?

    I bought my ipod touch 4th gen 32gb about 10 months ago in 2011 on December, after about 6 months since i bought it the battery started to last for shorter times. Now ( after 10 months today is 20th of september 2012) it really doesnt last for very long at all. After i fully charge it and play a game and do other stuff aswell it sometimes only lasts for 1 and a half to 2 hours only. It also charges very quickly now. I use both my laptop and the belkin ipod charger to charge it i use the cable that came with the ipod and sometimes use it with a usb extender. I also sometimes use the ipod while it is charging. I also sometimes take it out of charging before it is finished but i don't do this very much because i heard it was bad for the battery.
    My question is what can i do about this problem and what might apple be able to do. i want to know how to increase the battery life. And i also want to know is there something i am doing wrong during my charging process or something. I don't to do any of that stuff like taking the back of the ipod off or jailbreaking it, i don't want to stuff the ipod up and i want to keep it like a real ipod. Please help i really want to keep my ipod in good condition so please help if you can
    Thank you

    Hello!
         So my iPod Touch battery is like this too..except worse.  I can't take mine off the charger considering it will die in less than a minute. I recently posted a question like this too so if I get any feedback, i'll let u know.  Stay in there & dont charge it unless it's COMPLETELY dead (not to were it turns off, but to were it's telling you "20% Battery Remaining), and don't take it off the charger unless it's COMPLETELY charged. Hope I helped a little, and i'll get back to you if I find anything else. Sorry to hear about this! #IKnowHowYouFeel #DumbBatteries

  • How safe is iCloud and what exactly does it do?

    I was thinking about adding storage onto my iPhone by using iCloud as my iPhone is only 8GB.
    However, what exactly is iCloud and how safe is it to use? Does Apple save all your info and details for there personal use?
    What does it do? Just a safe storage thing or what, I have no idea!?

    Ignore what it does do and concentrate on the fact that it does not do "add storage onto your iphone".

  • Vista (32bit) and 'what u hear' problem

    Hi,
    Wonder if anyone has encountered this problem. I usually mess around with sound n stuff and in XP used to record stuff on the fly using what u hear tool.
    Since moving to Vista (32bit) whenever i record utilising the 'what you hear' recording setting the recording volume tends to MAX out at 100% regardless of what setting i set it at using the sound controller.
    I have the X-Fi Xtreme music edition and am using the latest CL drivers (too afraid to try the M$ WHQL driver update which arri'ved for me today).
    I use Adobe Audition .2 to record audio.
    Anyone have a work around?
    Thanks

    Here's the answer to the WHAT U HEAR problem that just came in today from the wonderful folks at Creative.
    "Please be informed that drivers updated from the web will comply with
    UAA standards. However, due to Microsoft's new Windows Vista?
    architecture, some features may be lost. I regret to inform you that
    currently "What U Hear" as recording source is not supported in Windows
    Vista."
    Doesn't sound very creative to me. I was originally asking about this in regards to a x-fi xtreme audio board but it looks like they've thrown up their arm is surrender to Vista period.
    I have managed a fair work around by putting a y connector at my card's speaker out, running a patch cable to my stereo, and then sending it's signal back into the card's line in socket. There's probably a lot of signal loss but it does allow me to use my stereo's reverb and equalizer to good advantage. Good enough for what I'm doing.

  • It's been two years since Windows 7 64 bit computers came out. At what point is Firefox thinking of providing a browser that is compatible with this. I haven't used Firefox for 2 years as a results. And what exactly is Waterfox?

    If you do a search on the web, you will discover that I am far from the only one who finds that she cannot use Firefox because it is incompatible with Windows 7 64 bit. I'm pretty sure there must be hundreds of thousands of users out there that can not use Firefox for the same reason. At what point are you thinking of updating your browser?
    Also are you connected to Waterfox and is it safe?

    In device manager tick Show hidden devices, under view on the toolbar.
    If DM cannot see it you cannot install a driver, not sure why that hardware will not get detected.

  • My unlocked iphone 4s doesnot work in every country I travel to. It needs a Turbo Sim in some countries for it to work! Why? and what's the problem?

    I got my unlocked iphone 4s from Apple store. It works in most of the countries I travel to, but in some it keeps showing a 'Searching' signal! I had to buy a turbo sim for it to work! Is the problem from my 4s or the sim? an why this is happening?

    To my best knowledge turbo sim does not hack a phone. I have not used it to unlock the phone, i have already bought it unlocked. Am pretty sure its not an issue with my iphone, I have been using it normally all around the countires I have been to, till i faced the mentioned problem in one country and they fixed it by using a turbo sim. Now that I have left the country, am back to using my 4s without the turbo sim and it's working perfectly fine.
    Thanx anyway...

  • Do I need an interface and what exactly is a preamp?

    I do a lot of recording with GB. I own and have used the Presonus Firepod and the Tascam US-122 for past projects. But I am wondering if there are any other options as far as getting a strong audio signal into my computer.
    Lately I have been just plugging a Shure SM58 straight into (with a 1/4 inch then an 1/8 inch adapter) the audio/input jack on my MBP. This is not working out bad but I cannot get a strong signal without "hiss."
    Now, I could just go through the Firepod or US-122 but lately I have been hearing people talk about preamp. I know that both of my interfaces have preamps but I am sure that they are not very good. So what I am wondering is can I get a dedicated preamp to go between the mic and the computer skipping the interface? Or do I need the interface too? Ideally if I can use a preamp I would like it to be quite small.
    Any suggestions?
    TIA!
    Message was edited by: [email protected]

    Depending on if you're purpose is for commercial release or not, you don't need a preamp. I'll tell you this though even professionals who work in studios with recording consoles costing 6 figures use external preamps to plugin into their already excellent preamps. Why do they do this? For a stronger signal to noise ratio to get the loudest sound into their preferred choice of media without distortion. There are cheap options like the ART tube pre which is better than not having one but then you have a lug around another piece of equipment. The only decent one I've seen out there that is designed for portability and provides professional sound is the Apogee mini-me which is an interface with excellent preamps and AD/DA conversion.

  • Third Party Applications? What exactly are they?

    Right,
    I've read alot about the Blue Screen that appears when Upgrading to OSX Leopard. I am intending on upgrading tomorrow when my external hard drive arrives so I can Clone my 10.4.11 onto the external hard drive and upgrade the cloned version first but would like to know if I can check in advance for any of these' Third party App's'? and what exactly are they?
    Regards,

    A third party application is anything not made by Apple. It can also include products that Apple purchased fairly recently (some of those "Pro" apps) that weren't coded to Apple's specfications and haven't been well tested. Apple doesn't and shouldn't test their software with third party applications. It isn't their job to test other people's software. They probably make exceptions for things like Office and Photoshop, but that is a short list.
    Most third party applications will be fine. The ones you have to worry about are those that ask for your password when you install them. They can then install any sort of incompatible software.
    After you clone your hard drive, verify that you can boot from the external drive and all your data is there. If so, don't upgrade the external drive. Boot using the 10.5 DVD and immediately run Disk Utility and re-partition your internal hard drive to wipe it out completely. Then install Leopard. Do not use Migration Assistant. Re-install all your 3rd party applications that are 10.5 compatible. Be very careful about copying over from backup anything in a Library/Preferences folder. You can copy any preference file from a third party application back over - those are safe. Anything from Apple may have been upgraded. Only copy over the Apple files that you absolutely have to, such as your Mail folder and Address book file, for example.
    It sounds like a lot of work but it will only take a couple of hours.

  • This is for Exchange 2007 but can't find a place to post it. It may apply here I don't know. What exactly happens when you suspend LCR?

    OK. I searched out here and found things close to what I need: how to suspend and restore LCR but I need another answer. I have gotten a new backup solution (Unitrends) and the Microsoft exchange write appears twice. I'm guessing one is for my first storage
    group and one is for LCR. Anyway it appears the software is trying to use the replication writer which is causing my backups to fail. Here is my question: what EXACTLY happens when I suspend the LCR (Suspend Storage Group Copy)? Does this affect regular exchange/email
    transport and receiving at all? Basically if I disable it will mail continue to flow as normal with no adverse affects? And what EXACTLY happens when I disable LCR. What if I decide I don't need it. Will disabling it affect normal email operations? Basically
    will either of these options in ANY way interfere with normal mail flow? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Based on my knowledge, suspending LCR doesn't affect the mail flow. If there is no need for LCR, you can disable LCR, and then please manually delete the LCR storage group and databaase fles.
    For more information about LCR, please refer to
    Local Continuous Replication.

    Hi Santhosh,
    Perhaps you could research your question using the J2EE tutorial located at http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/index.html
    Chapter 3 has a web app introduction and there are other chapters concerning specific web-app technologies.

  • What exactly IS firmware?

    And what kind of problems does it solve?
    Sorry for being a noob....

    I don't know what you are talking about. I can only read what you write.
    The web management interface for the configuration of a router is something different from the router's configuration.
    I would expect from someone who puts his certifications into his signature to be able to distinguish between these things and write them accurately.
    I would expect this in particular in an answer to someone who does not know that much about this as the billwazz.
    And nowhere in your answer it becomes clear that the firmware is the core thing that makes a useful thing out of the simple piece of hardware which a router is. Without firmware the router is useless. It does not do anything. To me that seems to be a very important fact in an answer of a newbie about what firmware actually is.
    Adding or removing some functions is not the purpose of a firmware. That is merely the difference between two firmware versions.
