Error 100008 - Corrupt file message when downloading iTunes

I just got my video ipod, and when i went to download music on it at iTunes, every song (4 in total) that I tried to download failed to do so, but took my money. All I got was this message,
"There was a problem downloading 'I Walk the Line/ With His Hot and Blue Guitar/ Johnny Cash'
The file seems to be corrupted. To reload file, choose 'Check for Purchases' from Store menu."
I tried "Check for Purchases several times for each song, but I just got the same message each time. When i went to the Downloads screen there was this message besides each song.
0 KB of 2.6 MB - stopped (err = -100008)
Please help me. I don't want to have wasted my hard earned money on a useless iTunes card.

cosmini,
It is documented in the Apple Knowledgebase which can be searched at http://www.apple.com/support/
This article lists the site:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93434
As for ports, the store uses http and https which is port 80 and 443.
These articles discusses which applications need to be allowed to access the internet, such as when using Windows firewall:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304082 (Windows XP specific)
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305484 (Windows Vista specific)
Hope this helps,

  • Corrupt file message when downloading song

    I keep getting an error message that the file may be corrupted when I try to purchase from the itunes store.
    It appears that the recent itunes software update is not working right with my computer. I have even tried to download after I shut off my internet software. To no avail.
    Can I get a refund if I keep having problems and not getting my songs? Any help appreciated.

    probably the best thing to do with a #10008 is to report it directly to the store. using purchase history or the email form at the bottom of the following FAQ would both work fine (use "other" in the message number field, and cite the number in the text of your message):

    The nearest I can find is there is a conflict between the Windows Backup program (which creates zip files) and Stuffit, which also creates zip files. Have you been using both those programs?

  • TS3212 Error Message when Downloading iTunes 10

    When attempting to download itunes for windows (Windows XP), I get the following error message, "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation," so I am unable to complete the installation.  Any suggestions?

    many thanks.
    Okay ... something may just have gone screwy with the permissions for your usual Windows user account. Unfortunately, that's a bit trickier to deal with on an XP system than on a Vista or 7 system.
    Let's first try installing from inside a different Windows user account.
    Create a new Windows user account with full administrative rights.
    Log out of your usual user account, and log into the new user account. (Don't use fast user switching to move between the accounts.)
    Try installing iTunes from inside the new user account.
    If it installs, log out of the new account and log into the usual account.
    Does your iTunes launch in there?

  • When attempting to buy mountain lion, "unknown error has occurred" is message when entering ITunes ID and password and am unable to download app.

    "Unknown error has ocurred" message when trying to buy Mountain Lion on my MacAir laptop.  Apple ID and password are operative with IPhone device but will not operate with ITunes purchase of Mountain Lion and ITunes advisor simply referred me to these discussion communities.  What to do???

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select "/var/log/install.log" from the file list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • Invalid Drive: H:\ error message when downloading iTunes 8.0.2

    For some time now, I've been trying to upgrade to the 8.0.2 version of iTunes. I get almost to the end, when I get an error message that says "Invalid Drive: H:\" and then I can't download it. I've tried to figure out the problem, but I have no idea what to do. I'm afraid to remove iTunes altogether and then try downloading it because I don't know if I'll be able to download it then, and if I can't then I won't have the program at all. Any suggestions?

    If you are having problems, it is best not to use "Upgrade" in iTunes. DOwnload the installer from the APple site:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    SAve the installer onto your desktop rather than running it from your browser.
    Then you can upgrade manually using the installer you saved.
    That won't solve your problem, but it simplifies things.
    You can often get round the invalid drive message by providing iTunes with the drive while you are installing. DO you know what comes up as drive H:, maybe a camera or external drive?
    If you don't have something that comes up as H:, maybe you could plug in a memory stick and allocate drive H: to it.
    This article about something else contains instructions for allocating a drive letter.

  • Error reading/writing file message when opening garageband and/or files

    I've been recently getting this message when I open garageband and files
    "Error reading/writing file\U201Ccom.apple.garageband.cs\U201D
    I've been in and repaired disk permissions and all that it says it is all fine, reinstall garageband and message still comes up, weird.
    not only is garageband being a nuisance, Mac OS X 10.6.2 is being a pain when shutting down telling me to restart the computer. This only happened since upgrading to 10.6. No one as yet knows this promble so I'm gonna have to ring apple and see what is going on here.
    and also my other problem is that mac doesn't seem as snappy anymore I noticed this before upgrading to 10.6 and made no difference when "cleanly" installing 10.6. I get a colour wheel popping up and i'm having to wait with simple tasks. iMac only 2 years old.

    i give up with this discussion forum no no one knows anything

  • Error=-50 message when downloading iTunes TV content from store

    Having problems downloading a TV program purchased through iTunes store. Other programs have downloaded fine, but this gives me the following error message, "stopped (err= -50)".
    Any ideas how to resolve this?

    Although you're getting a different error message number, perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:
