Error 42037 and new iTunes download is not working

When opening iTunes I got an error code 42037. A new download of iTunes doesn't work: it is now downloading for 24hours and keeps hanging somewhere in the process.

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

  • I just downloaded iTunes 11.1 and my iTunes Radio is not working. HELP!

    I just downloaded iTunes 11.1 and my iTunes Radio is not working. When I go to play a station it says "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. You are not authorized to access the requested resource. There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."

    I've got this from another forum and works perfectly:
    1. Go to iTunes
    2. Log out of your Apple ID
    3. Log back in.

  • I want to transfer music from an old iphone to a new itunes library , but not working

    I want to transfer music from an old iphone to a new itunes but its not working

    If you backup with iTunes and you restored from the backup and the data are gone, then there is no where to retrieve them from unless you have another backup that contains those data.
    Launch iTunes on the computer and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. You will see a window with all of your backups listed in it.
    If you see a recent backup that you are certain contains the data that you need, recover deleted data from iPhone backup.
    If your note is gone from iCloud.com there is only a few ways to possibly recover it.
    The first things I would check is a iCloud Backup, a iTunes Backup, or a 3rd party email that may have contained the note. To restore from a iCloud or iTunes backup follow this link. This article explains how to restore a device from either back up.
    Note if you have backed up since the note went missing, you will not have the note on the backup. Make sure you do not back up if trying to restore from a back up as this will back up the content without the note.
    To get to the "Set up assistant" on an iOS device, you must go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. Once the phone restarts, you will be at the "Set up Assistant"

  • Problem with itunes update.  I am running OSX v 10.4.11 and can't get itunes to update.  I had itunes 9.1.1 and when I tried ask it to update it said there was no update. sent old itunes to trash and now apple site itunes download is not working.  help...

    From Apple website when I go to itunes update to 10.3 I am not seeing the left column to download itunes 10.3.  Does anyone else have this problem?  I tried yesterday as well.  Today, I threw my itunes 9.1.1 in the trash and emptied it... and then rebooted.  What am I doing wrong?

    What operating system are you running?  I doubt it's an iPhone OS on a Mac Mini, but if you meant to choose 10.4 then you're out of luck.  http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/  At the bottom of the left hand column on this page, you'll see it requires OS X 10.5 or higher.

    help!

    Do you have any devices connected to your computer such as printers, webcams, etc?
    Try removing them if you do. I've seen some cases of this and sometimes unplugging these devices will work.
    I'd also suggest running MSconfig to ensure that there's no conflicting software. You can get all that information here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2292
    Another suggestion would be trying to create a test user (Admin privileges would be necessary). If it's able to install in that user account, you know it's something with the user. But if the installation is successful, it should install system wide.
    I would recommend trying this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    Good luck.

  • ITunes download site not working....

    Hi guys, i've been trying to download and install the new version of iTunes for the past 2 days now.  Since 07.30 yesterday morning to be exact.  Yesterday i got to about 99% and then the download crashed completely and wouldn't restart when I tried to bring it back up again.  Now, all i'm getting is "Internet Explorer Cannot View The Webpage" on the iTunes download site - has anyone heard anything about how long this is going to be going on for?

  • The iTunes download website not working for me

    I'm trying to download iTunes on my other computer, and when I went to the iPod+iTunes download page, nothing happens. I didn't get a message saying it was downloading, installing or anything. Is there something wrong with the Apple website or my computer? Please help!

    hi Erin!
    hmmm. let's try heading straight to the itunes download page:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    ... and if you see a blank blue box at the left of the page, disable your McAfee Privacy Service. the download options should appear in the blue box.
    keep us posted.

  • I got locked out of my ipad by a passcode and the itunes restart is not working

    I was locked out of my ipad because I forgot the passcode. I have tried the iTunes restart to wipe everything off the ipsd to start over and it is not working.

    Here's the Apple support page on this. If the Restpre process doesn't work you need to put your device into Recovery mode. Read through all the steps and follow them carefully.

  • Website image and zip file download links not working in Dreamweaver Air application

    Hi
    I have successfully created and AIR app for an existing business website using the Dreamweaver AIR Extension. The site works very well in all respects except for the part where we have high resolution images and zip files available for download. The download links refuse to do anything, and right-click (PC) / ctl-click (Mac) does nto work either.
    I suspect this may be an AIR sandbox/security issue but am I correct and what can I do to fix it?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to give.

    I am now facing the same problem. I wrote a servlet .
    code like this
             response = (HttpServletResponse) faces.getExternalContext().getResponse();
             response.setContentType("application/x-download");
             String agent = request.getHeader("USER-AGENT");
             boolean isIE=false;            
            if (null != agent && agent.indexOf("MSIE")!=-1) { 
                isIE=true;
            if (isIE) {
                fileName = URLEncoder.encode(fileName, "UTF-8");
            } else {
                fileName = new String(fileName.getBytes("utf-8"), "ISO-8859-1");
            response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename="+fileName);
            ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
            byte b[]=new byte[1024];
            int n;
            while((n=in.read(b))!=-1){
                os.write(b,0,n);
           in.close();
           os.close();
    and i open a new window refer to above jsp ,also i set a breakPoint at os.close(),the program has passed through,but nothing happened in the window.
    If i use IE or FF ,the browser will open a small window to allow me select whether open or  save the file.So can anybody give me some advice.Is it because air using webkit engine and the engine does not do this kind of job?
            Thanks.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.2 and new Canon 9000F Scanner Not Working

    Hi, folks I am pulling my hair out trying to get Acrobat to recognize the Canon 9000F scanner. I have downloaded the latest driver and still I am unable to get to see the darn thing.
    The scanner works great in the Canon scanner software and other devices but not Acrobat.
    When you go into Acrobat and do a Create a pdf and select scanner all are greyed out except custom and profiles, I have fiddled here with no luck.
    I had a HP scanner before and all options where there and worked great.
    Anyone know of any fixes for this?
    Cheers

    The scanner is just a few months old and it has never worked with Acrobat. The scanner works great with other apps like Photoshop CS5 as a WIA device, it also works in Windows native apps like the Windows Fax and Scan application but not under Acrobat 9.4.2. I use Win 7 64bit system.
    There is the WIA Canoscan  and a Canoscan 9000f listed and when you select either of these you get these messages.
    also here is the twacker result with 2 entries

  • I have one ID for iCloud and one for purchases.  Not working

    I have a mess.   When I migrated from Mobile Me that Apple ID was assigned to iCloud, but I have more than 5,000 songs plus more than 300 apps on another Apple ID.
    According to Apple Document HT4895
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
    you can have this arrangement where iTunes match is set to the purchasing ID and iCloud is set to the other ID but it does not seem to work for me.
    For example, how can I have iTunes match working with my purchasing Apple ID on my phone and at the same time be seeing my email, photo stream and contacts with my iCloud Apple ID on my phone at the same time? 
    Seems to me iTunes match does not work if your device is set to your purchasing ID and not your iCloud ID, and if it did work then you would not be able to see your email, photo stream and contacts from your iCloud Apple ID.   Seems the Apple document is wrong. 
    It seems to me you can only have two IDs if you do hard wire synch and that iTunes match will not work except for the iCloud ID, which in my case only has 200 songs and not 5,000 songs.
    Please help!!!!!

    I now got it to work.  There are two places to input IDs on IOS5 devices.  One for cloud and the other for itunes store and itunes match.

  • My itunes radio is not working on my microsoft compuer. I downloaded the new itunes and it says there is an error in the itunes store. I am not sure what is going on?

    My itunes radio is not working on my microsoft computer. I downloaded the new itunes but it says there is an error in my itunes store. What do i do to fix the problem?

    Try starting Aperture with the command and option keys held down.  You'll get 3 options.
    Try each, starting at the top, in order, checking after each to see if it fixes the issue.
