Can't download music - error 3259

I can't download the album I purchased. It keeps saying the network connection timed out. It is not my connection or firewall. I never had any trouble until I downloaded the newest version of iTunes. I uninstalled and reinstalled it. I have tried downloading single songs...HELP! This is driving me crazy!!!

I use itunes all the time, I know how to download and transfer. I own video ipod 80, and I just bought an ipod shuffle. Since I bought the shuffle, itunes will not transfer all my purchases. i.e. my last order contained 43 downloads, it only transferred one song and one video from what I bought. The rest keep popping up error 3259 - and "network connection timed out"... I have done everything your site has suggested. And it has been two days now, and this is not acceptable. I want what I paid for. This has never happened before until I got the shuffle. I have updated itunes, and even redownloaded and installed, and the same crap keeps popping up. It's odd how 2 of the 43 items download just fine, and the rest do not.

Can't Download Music error -50

Sorry if this has been posted already but i couldn't find anything relevant. When I go to download music I purchased today I get the message
"There was a problem downloading [name of song]. An unknown error has occured {-50).
Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again."
I used to have no problems downloading music. Anyone else having this problem and does anyone know a fix?

I know this is stupid but...
try closing and reopening iTunes (including restarting the machine)....
Some history: the -50 error has been around for a very long time - both Mac and Windows... it "seems" that its a communications error with the store that drives everyone crazy as the error is non-intuitive and cryptic.
It seems that in most cases, everyone has a solution that "eventually" works. It appears on both Mac and Windows. Solutions exist on the Mac that can't be applied on Windows, yet they still work.... and visa versa.
Which makes me think this: what's the common thread here? The Music Store, and network and Apple. I think the store is having issues at that moment, with you and possibly others - many others and TIME seems to resolve it. While you and everyone else are trying their magic "fixes," the Store resolves itself and everyone thinks that what they did was the magic fix.
Recommendation: wait a day or so and see if it "resolves" itself. If not, goto the help menu and email Apple. I bet the problem will disappear on you.
Otherwise I have absoluetely no idea what I'm talking about. :P

I can't download music.

Hi I'm using a blackberry 9320 and I'm on MTN. I have BIS, but I can't download music even when I have airtime, it just says something like "error, download failed". I bought the phone 3 weeks ago and I've had the problem since then. Plz help me. :'(

I tried downloading from the site "tubidy.com".
The error message is just "error" at the bottom left of the download progress bar.
I'm not attempting this via WiFi, so I guess it's the other one. I'm not sure.
Well my other BIS services like the social networks are working just fine and have been working like this since I bought the phone.

Congrats on your first post, bhatok. Are you able to log into your account via this link: https://account.nokia.com/ using a computer? How about the phone's browser? BTW, have you already tried signing into your account in the email+accounts? Are you also getting the same error message? Does it happen regardless of the connection you are using?
Hi, giridausa. Thanks for posting your concern. Is it okay if you could provide the exact error message? Are you able to register successfully with the music unlimited service prior to this issue?
We'll wait for your response.

How can i download music from my computer to my i phone

how can i download music from my computer to my i phone?

If the music you are wanting to have on your iphone was purchased through itunes you can then go to your front display to settings>itunes and app store from there you have a toggled switch that allows you to automatically download music and apps by toggling the switch. You will need to toggle the switch below these switchs that allows for cellular data to be enabled if this has not already been enabled. This then will automatically download music and apps directly to your device with no additional charge to you.
Good luck.

HT201272 Before backing up my old iphone4 I traded it in for an iphone5. All of the apps I purchased I had no problem retrieving from itunes with no charge but I can't download music that I have already paid for that was not backed up w/out paying again.

Before backing up my old iphone4 I traded it in for an iphone5. All of the apps I purchased had no problem downloading to my new phone from itunes with no charge, but I can't download music that I have already paid for that was not backed up w/out paying again. How can I get these songs to my new phone without having to buy them again?

Whether you can re-download music depends upon what country that you are in (and whether it remains in the store). If you don't have a Music section in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone for re-downloading it, then do you not have you library on your computer's iTunes or on your backup of your downloads ? If not then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download

Can I download music from iTunes to 2 itouches

My computer with iTunes which my itouch was synced to crashed, literally died. I threw it out and had no back-up so lost everything on it (still don't know how to make backup). I bought a new computer, re-downloaded iTunes and my several days worth of music is now gone except for a few songs purchased so I am re-downloading my CDs which is a time consuming pain.
Here's my problem. My itouch only has one album on it (Chris brown's F.a.m.e.). I finally want to transfer my iTunes music to my itouch in case my computer crashes again and to listen to it there too which I hadn't done in the past. When I synched my itouch to iTunes it says I have to erase everything on my itouch first since I've never synched it to the iTunes on this computer before even though it is under my same exact account. This is do unreasonable and stupid. I have tons of pictures, videos, emails and apps I've been using my 64GB itouch exclusively for. My iTunes account is registered to this itouch and there's no way I want to delete everything on it years worth just to have access to synch to iTunes. Makes no friggin sense to me. I purchased a new itouch so I can download the music onto that. I've already spent hours and hours over a couple weeks every free moment downloading my CDs to iTunes. Before I crack open the new itouch, is it going to let me download my music onto it or only to my old itouch whose content I do not want to erase?? I'm frustrated is an extreme understatement as to how I am feeling. Any suggestions? Can I unregister my old itouch and register the new one to iTunes...WITHOUT having to delete all the music I've already downloaded? Can I download onto both my itouches since everything will be registered to me? Or do I also have to buy another computer, download a second iTunes, register the new itouch or ??

1. My computer crashed. I smelled smoke, it no longer turned on, nobody was able to retrieve anything on it. It went in the trash with all my data on it - pictures, itunes, documents etc. I had never made a back up.
2. I purchased a brand new Dell computer. I re-installed iTunes using my same username/password as the itunes I had on my old computer. All the days worth of music (non-purchased) were gone. I was told through a paid call by apple that I have to re-install all the non purchased items (my CDs) but they showed me how to bring over my purchased music.
3. I spent hours and hours and hours re-installing all my CDs, several days worth of music. I then synched my itouch, and it is telling me that it detected a new computer, that it has to first erase everything on the itouch in order to synch and transfer the music onto it.
4. I don't want to erease all the content on my itouch - pictures, videos, emails, etc. etc. Have had it for a while and not something I want to do.
5. I purchased another 64GB itouch so I can synch that one instead.
6. I haven't removed it from the box yet. My question is "Can I download music from iTunes to 2 itouches." If I crack open the box and synch the brand new itouch to the itunes on my new computer, registered to my old itouch, will it work? Will it synch and download the music to that device so that I don't have to erase everything on my old itouch - wich is not an option for me. I don't want to delete everything on it. I bought a new itouch so I won't have to delete everything and transfer it onto that. The itunes on my new computer is already registered to my old itouch. Had I known I'd have to delete everything to synch, I would've not used my old username/password, would have created a new one, a new account so I could sync it to my new itouch which I shelled out the money on just so I don't have to erase everything on my old itouch. So my question again - can I synch this second brand new itouch to the itunes on my compouter? I don't want to remove it out of the original packaging and find out the hard way only to then not be able to return it to the store. ANd if I can't and I don't want to delete everything on my old itouch, am I screwed and no longer able to use itunes?

Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone sync with my Mac without a problem?
I've had an iPod over a year and have not done much with it except download music onto it from my PC. Just recently have purchased the iPhone. When I got my iPod I didn't have a Mac, but now I do. I am really into my iPhone, so now I want to make sure that I don't do anything wrong. So can I connect my iPhone to both my PC and my Mac without it getting mixed signals and stop working. I have no music on my Mac but plan to download music into iTunes on it. So can I download music from both computers without problems onto my iPhone?

StoneMountainGirl,
No. You can only music to your iPhone from one computer at a time. If you try to load music onto it from a 2nd computer, it will erase the current content on the iPhone and replace it with whats in the iTunes library you are connected to,
