Error -3150 when downloading from iTunes Store

For the past several days since upgrading to iT8, when I've tried to download files from iTunes, it has errored out at some point of the download with error -3150. I got this error when downloading a 9MB podcast file, and also a 1.64GB HD tv show.
When I got it on the podcast, it reset all of the file's progress and started over. Thankfully, it did not do it with the TV show (which was 999MB through) or I would have been considerably more upset, but it did waste all the time I was using to download it. ADSL is terrible in the country I'm currently staying in, but it's all that's available to me.
In any case, I have not seen any mention of this error anywhere, and would appreciate knowing what it means, and more importantly, what Apple is doing about it.

Well, I guess that will have to do. Thanks for the heads up. It is a DSL connection, and there's not much that I can do about intermittent connections because cable/satellite is literally nonexistant in this country. However, Apple might want to consider revamping their file transfer protocols if this is going to be a standard problem - this would be in their best interest especially since they're going to be releasing the iPhone all over the world, and very few places have Internet speeds like USA and East Asia.

  • TS3694 error -39 leads to error -50 when downloading from itunes store and the download will not resume

    I download a TV Show from itunes and usually as soon as it begins, it tells me that my TV Show is ready to watch and I can choose to "Play TV Show Now" or "Watch Later." I choose Play TV Show Now. Then after about 20 seconds of watching, and error message comes up with the error code -39. The download stopped and when I resume, it will download for 5 more seconds but then I get another error message with the code -50. I click the Resume button and it won't resume no matter how many times I click it. So I have to go to Music, iTunes, iTunes Media, Downloads, and delete the folder with the name of the TV Show that wouldn't work. Then i open iTunes again and Check for Downloads and it starts over downloading.
    The errors only occur when I start playing the TV Show while its downloading. Its fine if I let it download.
    How do I fix the errors?

    That's not the issue (waiting for the download to complete).  The issue is that the download never ever completes.  The Computer says "Hey, you can watch your show," but then just a few moments have downloaded, and you get a "-50" error.
    The published solution for the -50 error is to navigate to the wack place that itunes has decided to store your download (if you can find it) and delete the partial file and try again.
    I have "tried again" 5 times now.  It's not working.

  • Internal Hard drive dismounts when downloading from iTunes Store?

    I am having an issue when I download content from the iTunes Store to my Mac Pro.
    I have my Media Library on the second Internal Hard drive (an Hitachi). When I download content after a while -usually half-way through a download or after a few minutes if its large amount to data/content (App updates etc) -the second internal hard drive will dismount. Stopping the download and making the disk inaccessible.
    The internal hard drive seems to be fine otherwise. It has plenty of space and I use it as a scratch disk for video editing HD content.
    To re-mount the disk, I have to do a complete shut down, remove the hard disk (I check for dust/damage etc) and re-insert and re-start the system. If the systems down not pick up the hard drive the first time I try and again and it usually recognized then. I have tried using an external hard drive as well (not sure what make the hard disk is but its an iomega unit) and the same thing has happened.
    As you can imagine this is very annoying. I hve a work around currently where I set-up a tempoary Media Libabry on my system disk and download anythin I want from iTunes and then manually move the content to the second drive-not ideal but it works. I have had this issue for a year- so I have been very patient and hoping it would get resolved through updates-as I am sure there ha to been other people with the same issue.
    Can anyone help me identify where the problem is? Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? I am stumped and really not sure where to start.

    Hello Nesquik,
    Yes, I did notice it too. A lot of noise when downloading, It sure looks as if there is no buffer or not enough buffer. Going back in history when there was no smartdrive
    I hope they can fix it, very annoying. Not only because of the noise, but I also get the feeling that my harddrive must be degrading. If you only could say that you want to download on a different location (choosing the SSD) and afterwards moving to the Media Folder on a normal harddrive.

  • "Part of the file seems to be corrupted" when downloading from iTunes Store

    I have suddenly started getting this issue. It has happened once before, but after 2 retries, it worked.
    However, this time it refuses to work no matter how many retries, restarts, and reboots...
    I have looked up the error it give me on my Downloads section of iTunes (error 8008) and the solution does not work.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
    It acts like it can't make a connection to the server, making multiple retrys on the download, then gives me the error.
    But, I can connect to the store with no issue...
    This is VERY frustrating seeing how I can't see iTunes selling me a corrupt episode of a series I have already bought a season pass for...
    I was hoping to watch it this evening, however that looks unlikely now...
    Any help on this issue?

    If you've had no joy with that, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • Error 50 when downloading from itunes and cant get purchases downloaded but i am charged for them

    I used a redeem code and it downloaded the extras but the movie portion that appears to be a separate app states error-50 and will not download. I cannot delete the error file nor can I use the redeem code (one time use) to try downloading again.

    Temporary fix:  I am having the same problem, have been for months.  I get sporadic results, sometimes I can download, sometimes not.  You need to delete the download from the Downloads section in iTunes, then find your Downloads folder under Users folder (a few folders deep) and delete the folder for the item that failed.  Then go back to iTunes and check for new downloads, which causes the download to start over.
    Permanent fix: What I've come to understand is that iTunes does not like NTFS formatted hard drives.  I am downloading to a FAT32 formatted thumb drive and it is working flawlessly.  The way iTunes downloads a file is archaic to say the least.  It creates a file container the size of the file being downloaded, then downloads it in one long stream to the hard drive.  When the incompatibility arises with NTFS, the download fails and the files have to be deleted to start over.  In a day and age when we have p2p technology and Apple can't fix a simple download compatibility issue.  It's sad.  My advice... get an external hard drive, format it for FAT32 and redirect your downloads to that (under Edit, Preferences, Advanced).  You should be fine.

  • Error -9808, cannot download from iTunes store! Please help!

    Everytime I try to login to buy something from the iTunes store, I get a message saying to try again later because an unknown error (-9808) has occured. But I try later and it's always the same!
    I have run the diagnostics on iTunes and it says that I lack a secure link to the iTunes store.
    I've also tried all of the solutions listed on the Apple Support section, including security issues but nothing has worked!
    Please help! I just wanna buy some music!

  • Error when downloading from iTunes Store

    I'm trying to download an album, and one of the tracks is a video. When that video tried to download, it gave an error 42003. It said to check network connectivity and try again. Did that, but still the error. What does this error mean? What can I do to fix it?

    Disable any firewall, anti-virus, etc software you may have and try again. This includes most things by Norton, McAfee, and so on. Also, if you're connected wireless or through a router, try accessing the internet directly via your broadband modem.

  • Why am i getting error message when downloading from app store

    I am trying to download apps and updates for apps I have,and am getting an error message?

    If one is downloading directly to the iPhone via WiFi, it doesn't matter what version of iTunes is on the computer.
    I decided to sync my phone to Outlook via iTunes.  First thing, iTunes discovered that 7.0.3 was not on my phone.  It asked if i wanted to install it.  I said, "yes", and VOILA!! 7.0.3 is now installed on my iPhone.
    So therein is the answer.  Have no idea what bug is in there to keep it from loading to some phones directly via WiFi, but obviously, it is something!!
    There is no bug.  While you can update your iOS via wi-fi, it's recommended to do so via USB & iTunes.  Depending on your wi-fi connection & singal strength, you can get errors.  That's not a function specifically of the device.

  • Error 400 when downloading from iTunes U

    This is my first time to post a discussion topic in this forum.  I used to be able to subscribe to iTunes U, but for the past few weeks, I could not have access to any iTunes U files at all (even for new subscriptions).  For some, the error says: "An internal server error occurred.  Please check that the URL is correct and the connection to the network is active and try again." The other ones would say, "An unknown error occurred (400).  Please check that the URL is correct and the connection to the network is active and try again."
    I could subscribe to other podcasts with no problem.  The problem is only with iTunes U.  It's very frustrating because I could not see this problem when I search for it online.  If someone knows what's wrong with it why it's giving me these error messages, I would really appreciate your response.
    Thank you very much!

    Anyone knows what this is and how to fix it?

    Perhaps try the iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

    So here is the situation.

Any ideas?????

    We're having similar connection issues, and the error log on our web server says something about a certificate error. I noted that last year on this date there were messages related to certificates. Is it possible they are updated every Dec 2, and we should count on some down time?

  • Volume too low on download from itunes store how to fix

    My download from itunes store won't play on my ipad at a decent volume.  How do I fix it? 
    Actually, I suspect the download itself is too low and fuzzy.  How do I reload?

    If you are having a problem with a song you downloaded from iTunes, you can report it to an iTunes worker and they will redownload the song for you for free.  Go to the song you bought and find where it says "report a problem".  Click on that, and you can explain your problem to an iTunes worker.
