App downloads half way then errors out

I purchased an app from the iTunes store but I can't get it to finish downloading.
It gets half way (50megs - using wifi home connection) and then I get a pop up message saying Cannot download at this time. Then two options. Done and Retry. I've been retrying for two days now.
Why won't this app download?
It's the T.A.P.S app.
It's purchased. Paid for. I want it! Help?
iphone 4gs latest os etc.

And it won't even let me download from my iMac via iTunes.... error's out each time - something about network error (-50)         I'm connected... obviously!!
When I delete the error'd file, then try to redownload it says all items have been downloaded. Bull5h!t
gimme my money back then!!
TWO days.... TWO!! This is crap! I'm a patient person but this is riduculous!

    I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
    Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
    I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
    So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in  mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
    are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
    I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

  • Why is my app only downloading half-way

    I bought an app on the mac app store and it only downloads half-way before it says "error check your internet connection and retry" my internet connection is fine i believe i have bought several apps before that have downloaded fine. Can someone please help? Has anyone else had this problem?

    Is it a large download? Ask your ISP, perhaps they throttle doownloads.

  • Am trying to sign into iTunes store only access half way then blank that's it anyone help please

    Hi anyone can help with my iTunes am trying to sign in but only goes half way then blank white nothing happens

    Here's a possible fix for Error 11503 and for error 50.
    It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you.
    I believe this error is caused by the incomplete downloading of either an update to an app, or perhaps a big music file. In my case it was caused by closing the lid on my laptop when I was downloading app updates on a very slow internet connection in a hotel.
    Anyway, here is what I did that fixed it completely.
    Close iTunes.
    Go to this folder : /iTunes/Mobile Applications/Downloads
    You'll find tmp files there. Drag them out of this folder to a temporary folder on your desktop. The Downloads folder should now be empty.
    Restart iTunes.
    All should be fine.
    If it's not, then I can't help further, but that's what worked for me.

  • HT204204 i cannot restore my iphone 6 it start downloading half way stop and give me the code 53

    i cannot restore my iphone 6 it download half way and give me code 53

    It sounds like your phone needs to be restored to complete the unlocking process. The device is unlocked, so restoring it in iTunes on a computer will be your best option.  To avoid the error occurred message you will need to do a factory restore.
    You can restore the iPhone by completing a DFU restore.
    DFU Restore:
    1. Connect your iPhone to a computer with internet connection
    2. Open iTunes
    3. Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake button and Home buttons simultaneously for approximately 9-10 seconds
    4. When the screen goes blank, release the Sleep/Wake button and continue holding the Home button
    5. the screen MUST remain black.  If the Apple logo appears while still holding the Home button you did not time it properly (either you released Sleep/Wake too soon or too late)
    6. iTunes will pop up with a small window indicating you have connected an iphone in recovery mode and can Restore it to recover it.
    7. If the apple logo appears due to incorrect timing the Recovery mode message may still appear in iTunes, but you should simply dismiss it and try again from step 3.

  • My Mad Men shows stop downloading half way through.  Why  is that happening, and how do I fix it?

  • When I try to format an external usb drive  the progress bar only goes half way then freezes up can anybody help please

    When I try to format an external usb drive  the progress bar gets to half way then freezes , or stops and  what ever time I allow it never gets any futher on , I have to go to the task bar and click quit  to get on  and the usb drive is not formatted  is there a fault with my disk utility program  I have updated the system
    to lion 10.7.2
    Can anybody advise please

    Are these new external drives? How are the currently formatted? Have you tried doing this:
    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

    This doesn't work for everybody.   Case in point:
    How many of you use the gaming NICs from Bigfoot Networks like the Killer Xeno Pro and so forth?   You can type: netsh winsock reset   all you want, but when Windows 7 reboots, you get a message box saying the "LSP needs to be reset.  Do you want to do this now?"
    If you say NO, it will keep popping up and annoying you until you do.   In the meantime iTunes Store loads perfectly.  Once you allow that message to reset the LSP, the iTunes Store no longer loads.   I have brought this up with the people at Bigfoot Networks by putting in a trouble ticket...for whatever good it will do.  
    These NICs are supposed to be fine tuned and tested for online gaming and I've never had an issue with it until now.  My iTunes has always loaded just fine with it before iTunes 10.5.   So, maybe it's an issue on Apple's end as well.    I just wanted to post this an let everyone who owns these cards know what I found.
    Thanks.

  • I recently purchased music and a few songs only downloaded half way through, why is that and how can i fix it?

    I recently purchased music and a few songs only downloaded half way through, why is that and how can i fix it?

    I think this is a more general problem Apple are having at the moment. I have just written in another thread:
    "I am having this problem too. There have been quite a few other threads about it. It applies to single tracks too. They appear to download OK, and show as the right file size and length, but stop playing well before the end and iTunes moves on to the next track. Redownloading them helps sometimes but not always.
    I have only had this problem for the last week or so. The longer the track the more likely there is to be a problem (perhaps obviously)."
    I think it is the tracks themselves rather than iTunes. If you export the problematic track to the Desktop and try playing it with Quicktime it stops in just the same place.

  • I own a PC and ever since i downloaded the new version of itunes i can not get itunes store to load. its goes about half way then the store goes white! PLEASE help!

    I own a PC and itunes store was running fine on it... up until i downloaded the new version and then it quit working it would load about half way and then quit and turn the store home page white i have tried a few different things including re installing, trying to fix it, but nothing has worked!
    this has happened to me once before on an older computer and i could never get it back working then either and it has also happened to another person i know and they also have tried to fix it! i am very fusterated with itunes/apple for not fixing this issue becuase it has happened to many others as well!!
    any help would be greatly appreciated!
    THANKS!!!

    I've been working on this all day!!! I've tried everything I know of and can't get it to load either. Sounds like lots of people are having problems. Here is what I have so far...I have uninstalled EVERYTHING on my pc from apple and reinstalled itunes to no avail. I have tried all sorts of things I've read as fixes online. NOTHING has worked. Here is something interesting that i have noticed though. my main pc (which is the one i have always managed my itunes account with for years) is a 32 bit system running windows 7. Yesterday I installed itunes for the first time on my new netbook which is a 64 bit (windows 7) system and it works just fine. i have three other laptops (all window 7) in my household that are all 64 bit operating systems and ALL have updated to 10.5 and THEY ALL work fine. this is FOUR 64 bit systems ALL updated w/10.5 that work and ONE that is a 32 bit that will not. Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next. I'm out of ideas and patience!

  • App updated half way, and stopped. Can't delete or continue download.

    I impatiently decided to update several apps on the road today, before I had access to WiFi (at work). App started downloading the update and stopped about half way. I assumed that once I was able to contect to the network, it would speed up and complete without problem. Well, now it's stuck. I can't delete it or access it. It's basically a dead icon on my screen.
    I haven't tried connecting it to my iTunes at home, but is there another way to access installed apps and force delete? iPhone finder?
    Thanks!
