ERROR 450- Podcasts Won't Download

I've been trying to dowload some podcasts that I'm subscribed to on the iTunes store. However an exclamation point pops up with a window saying: "There was a problem dowloading [NAME OF PODCAST]. An unknown error occured (450). Please check that the URL is correct and the connection to the network is active and try again." I've added a few sites to Parental Controls, including http://apple.com; http://itunes.apple.com; http://ax.itunes.apple.com, and I've even uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes & Quicktime. I've gone back and forth from Apple to Windows but no one can give me a solution. I could really use some help here!

i got this same error message but it was for downloading a couple songs that i bought. it has been very annoying since i have closed i tunes and restarted the computer lots of times. i dont know what else to do. can anyone help.

  • My podcasts won't download from the computer to my ipod touch all of a sudden!

    All of a sudden my podcasts won't download from the computer to the ipod touch anymore.  It still downloads changes in music and apps, but it just seems to be podcasts.  Can anybody help me diagnose my problem?

    If they are video podcasts, they now appear in the Video app after iOS 5.

  • TS2743 My podcast won't download from iTunes for anyone, anymore

    Hi guys! I am the owner/host of Dorktown Podcast. Sadly most listeners (me included) are not able to download our shows off of iTunes. It has been on there for seven years and has been fine previously and nothing has changed from the feed. You can stream it but it won't download. The podcast feed and files are fine as they work on all other formats (including Stitcher). There is plenty of space on peoples phones or computer for the download.I
    When I report the problem directly on iTunes it keeps telling me I've 'timed out' after I send the report even though it's only taken me seconds to paste the report and send it.
    Please please please I hope somebody can help as it's driving me crazy that people can no longer download off iTunes.
    Thank you! -Mike

    I subscribed to the URL http://www.walkingoliver.com/pak/wopodcast_xmlfeed1.xml in iTunes and episode 8 started downloading successfully. So perhaps the problem is solved?

  • Video podcast won't download?

    After installing the latest version of iTunes on my G4 iBook the video podcast will not download, an error message pops up right when the podcast is done downloading. I was able to do this with the older software.

    I am having the same issue and then some. Itunes will only load a couple videos to the ipod. It will quict the installation of the the movies saying it's a bad format. Also my ipod will not play podcasts and it'll shut down. I didn't have these issues before installing itunes 7. I have heard of the issues with itunes 7 and wanted to see if anyone else is having issues with communication and play back on the ipod.

  • I'm trying to download a movie on my mac book air, but every time i try to download it it says error 8003 and won't download the movie.

    I just got a Mac Book Air and am trying to download a movie, but every time i try to download it it says error 8003 and will not download the movie.

    Hello skiier4life,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where you are receiving error 8003 in iTunes when trying to download content from the iTunes Store, please follow the troubleshooting steps in the article linked to below as error (-50) is the same as error 8003.

  • Certain podcasts won't download err=3259

    itunes 8, now 8.01 refuses to download certain larger podcasts. There is no firewall enabled, no norton/antivirus software, and yes, i have checked all of the other relevant information on the discussion boards and tried those that seemed applicable.
    anyone have any suggestions? thanks in advance

    The same problem is happening to me too. I can't download the video podcasts of the Rachel Maddow Show. I keep getting the message: Internal Server Error. Please check the URl or something like that. When i try to play or download it through apple tv, i get the message "This movie cannot be played". When i try to do the same through my iphone, i get basically the same message. It's been this way since the Christmas holidays and its getting very very irritating. I've been watching the SHow for a while now with no problems whatsoever. But now...I can watch every other podcast except this one. What on earth is going on???

  • Certain podcasts won't download.

    I'm having problems downloading certain podcasts to my itunes. So work and other don't. When it doesn't work it's giving me the "err=-3259" , but its not a firewall issue because my computer is open to sharing music as it is. I am running off the most recent version of itunes and i have also tried unsubscribing from the podcasts and resubscribing.
    Help please....

  • Certain podcast won't download in home WiFi

    hi,
    recently the podcast "NBC Nightly News(video)" (also the audio one) stopped updating and downloading using my home wifi, even when i force it to update it doesn't recognise there are new episodes and when i choose certain episode (after 3.12.14) and try to download it shows Download error. without specifying what is the error), the last epsiode it recognises is from 3.12.14, the problem occurs on my iPad, iPhone and PC, however using different wifi network (such as university wifi) the podcast updates regularly and downloads the episodes.
    I own iPhone 4S and iPad 4 both using iOS 8.1.2.
    Is there a way to detect what the problem is? i don't have the problem with other podcasts, and i am not sure what to check with my network (assuming it's the problem).
    thanks
    guy

    OK, seems like I located the problem - sort of.  It's not the feed that's the issue, but rather the fact that I'm pushing my MP3-files through a PHP script which does some statcounting. If I access the MP3 files directly, the iTunes app downloads them OK.
    So I'm guessing maybe my headers aren't exactly what the iTunes app is expencting? Here's a snippet from the PHP file which outputs the MP3 data:
    header('Content-Type: audio/mp3');
    header('Content-Length: 'filesize($location));
    @readfile($location);

  • ITunes keeps giving me an "error message" and won't download to my PC

    Why won't iTunes  download to my PC ? It keeps giving me an "error message!"

    "msvcr80.dll" error.
    First try updating to iTunes 11.1.5.5, using an installer downloaded from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you still get the errors after that, try the following user tip:

  • Error 8008 - Episode won't download - itunes store email address now bounces

    I've spend ~£26 on the HD version of Battlestar Galactica Season 2; this should get me all the episodes in Series 3 & 4.
    Unfortunately, one episode (Season 4, Episode 13, "The Oath") repeatedly fails to download (1 week now, at least a dozen attempts).
    It gets 1.2Gb of 1.4Gb into the download, stops, restarts all over again, gets to 1.2Gb and then gives error 8008.
    I've been in contact with the itunes store multiple times about it (Re: CAS : (en_US) Purchases, Billing & Redemption; Follow-up: 295940492) and they kept saying "try it again", "i've marked it for redownload" but nothing has changed.
    I now can't even email the itunes store people who have been "supporting me", as their email address no longer replies (it bounces at apple's end with a 550 Recipient address rejected).
    I reckon the content is broken in the cloud; maybe I'm the only mug stupid enough to try to buy TV series this way, but not to worry it won't happen again.
    I've deleted my downloads directory, retried this so many times I'm probably on the verge of getting a bandwidth warning, I've tried two different networks - to no avail.
    So here I am, in the forums, wondering if all I can do is do the nuclear option of challenging the credit card transaction to get the refund?

    Any joy getting this sorted?  I have the same problem.  Can't download it, can't stop it from trying.  Getting quite annoying now.

  • Re-downloading Firefox, keep getting "error:file corrupt". won't download.

    '''I recently had to restore my desktop to factory condition. I am trying to get Firefox back, but have tried to download 3 times and keep getting, "error: file corrupt". It will not download, any ideas? thanks!'''

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

  • Moved computers - Error messages - podcasts won't sync - multiple problems

    I just moved my itunes and ipod from a macbook to a PC (I love the apples but I can't afford to buy them).
    When I plug in my ipod I get two very similar error messages that must be cleared before my ipod will sync (which is very annoying if you're in a hurry and you plug in your ipod and expect it to sync and don't notice the error messages come up and then come back a few minutes later and nothing has synchronized).
    The first is:
    "Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "How Microsoft Deployed and
    Architected SharePoint Server 2007", were not copied because they could not be found." and then at the bottom it says there are 87 total problems and I can click the + if I want to see all 87 problems.
    How do I fix that?
    Also I'm trying very very very very very hard to get Real Time with Bill Maher Episode #165 to move from my iTunes (where it rests tauntingly) to my iPod (which has only 1 brief video episode of "new rules". I've tried many different settings in the sync area including "sync the 5 most recent items", "sync the 5 most recent unplayed items", "sync all items", etc. but nothing I try moves this over.
    Please please please, how can I get Episode #165 onto my iPod before I die of old age?

    I am having the same problem.  iMessages sends and sync with my iphone 4s and ipad, but even though I'm signed in on my mac with iMessage, I can't send any mesages and they don't sync with the messages sent from my iphone.   I am signed in with my AppleID on the mac, and I get the confirmation notices on my iphone and ipad, but I can't send send or receive iMessages on the mac.
    I've tried the numerous fixes suggested in other articles, such as signing in and out on all my devices (starting with the iphone first), deleting plist files, uninstalling Flash player, resetting the PRAM, repairing disk permissions, booting in safe mode, but nothing works. 
    I have a MacBook Pro 17" running the latest version of Mavericks with Messages version 8 (4226). 
    My iCloud account is a different login than my AppleID I use for the iPhone, iTunes, and Messages, but that's because it's the AppleID that is tied to my cell phone number. 
    Thank you for the help.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • HT1725 I have downloads that have a download error, and won't download. How do I delete them

    How do I delete podcasts and movies that won't download due to download error?

    AHA, you have Firmware password protection in Mac OS X , disable it & try Option/alt...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1352
    It would block usage of all the startup keys, like C, N, T, D, CMD+s, CMD+Option+p+r, CMD +v, Option, and Shift, as well as booting from anything but the Hard Drive.
