Error 50 & 36 when downloading movies from iTunes

I keep getting an error message (50 and 36) when I try to download a movie from iTunes. iTunes will download the file for approximately 5 minutes and then timeout. I searched for answers and have tried deleting the tmp files, restarting iTunes, disabling all firewalls. None have worked. I am able to download updates (small and large files) for my Apps and Music with no problems; I just can't get the movie to download. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  • Error 50 when downloading movie from iTunes

    A movie I downloaded previously from iTunes onto my laptop (Win7) wasn't playing from my iPad2, so I erased it from the iPad and tried re-syncing it from my laptop...fail.  After purchasing it a 2nd time from my laptop, the downlaod fails 25% into it, giving me a error 50.  I've tried doing this hardwired and wirelessly with the same result, ran the network test....nothing.  Any ideas?

  • I get an unknown error (-50) when downloading movies from iTunes

    When I download a movie or TV show from iTunes, it starts downloading like normal, then the "time remaining" starts ticking up rapidly. Sometimes it keeps downloading, and then starts over suddenly, but eventually it always leads me to the (-50) unknown error. It also charges me for the movie/TV show. Any ideas how to fix it?

    I have a 30g Video Ipod and I have been having
    problems with it trying to syn up. I downloaded the
    Vista update for it and still no syncing but when I
    tried to update the Ipod I got this message.
    Ipod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured
    (-50).
    If anyone knows what this means and possibly could
    give me help with it, I would appreciate it very much.
    Same thing happened to me last night. It was right after I DL the update given by apple for Windows Vista. I just closed everything restarted my computer and tried again and it worked. Just that now all my Album Artwork is messed up. I'm listening to Fall Out Boy and I get the artwork for Grey's Anatomy Podcast. Weird. I have no idea how to fix it either.

  • Apple TV is a Joke when downloading movie from iTunes

    I attempted to download a movie from iTunes as a rental. It has taken 3 nights. Every time I go into iTunes to watch my movie it starts the download process all over again. Last weekend, 5+ hours to download. Let it run overnight tried to watch it this past Saturday. Again, started to to download from the begining, 5+ hours and I again let it download over night. Attempted to watch again, stated to download from the very begining again, another 5+ hours. Today, I tried to watch my movie, it is not downloaded. Trying to download for another 4+ hours. To boot, it now says I have 23 hours left to watch my movie.
    Using Apple TV 2 --> using a ethernet cord.

    That is likely contributing to your issue. Especially if it is not consistent. 6mbps is required for instant HD, you can check to SD in the settings. Did you check for interference via ethernet and www.istumbler.net or how did you come to that conclusion?
    Here is some info on DNS
    Verify DNS and network settings
    If you are experiencing abnormal wait times when attempting to purchase or rent on your Apple TV, it could be due to changes made to your network settings (such as the DNS address on your Apple TV and/or router or base station). You should use the default DNS entry supplied by your ISP, on both your Apple TV and router. Changing the DNS entry may result in a longer time before playback begins. Also, you should configure your Apple TV to use DHCP for the network setup, unless you have a custom network with specifically-assigned IP addresses.
    To configure your Apple TV to use DHCP, from the main menu, go to Settings > General > Network > Configure TCP/IP. In the Network Setup page, select the "Automatically" option.
    Once you've confirmed that your Apple TV and router or base station are using DHCP without a custom DNS entry, power-cycle your Apple TV, router or base station, and broadband Internet modem.

  • Error message when downloading rental from itunes to ipad

    I purchased two rental movies on itunes and when I transfer to my ipad, it says they've already been downloaded to another computer or device (but they haven't been).  Anyone have experience with this problem?

    Hello spk15,
    The only suggestion I have to offer is to take a look at this Apple support document if you haven't done so yet.

  • Iphone 6 plus screen frozen when downloading movies from itunes

    My iphone 6 plus screen froze up when I tried to rent/download 2 movies on iTunes. I did  not have enought free space to accommodate I guess, so instead I tried downloading it on my iPad since I had more storage space...but when I tried to rent it on my iPad instead, iTunes says I already rented it... Will I be paying for the two movies I rented since I dont have enough space to watch it? And how do I unfreeze my screen?

    Hello there, Zara2aj.
    When renting movies on your iOS device, the following Knowledge Base article explains where to locate it and the availability of that rental on other devices:
    FAQs about renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    Where can I find movies that I rented?
    Find your movie on the device you used to rent it. Follow these steps:
    Mac or PC: Go to the Rentals tab in the Movies section of the iTunes Library.
    iOS device: Go to the Rental tab of the Videos app.
    Apple TV:
    2nd or 3rd generation: Look in the top shelf of the main menu.
    1st generation: Go to Movies > Rented Movies.
    Where can I watch movies that I rented?
    Mac or PC
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch (with iOS 3.1.3 or later)
    iPod classic, iPod nano (3rd, 4th, or 5th generation)
    TV using Apple TV
    Watch your movie on the device you used to rent it. If you rented the movie on your computer, you can move it to an iOS device or Apple TV (1st generation). To do this, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as much as you want, but you can only have it on one device at a time.
    If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Error -100000 when downloading songs from iTune

    Have have several songs that I have purchased thru iTune that will not download. I get an error -100000 that says the file is corrupted. I have tried repeatable to download the songs but get the same error everytime. What can I do to get the songs that I have paid for?

  • Error message when downloading video from itunes

    It keeps saying that my disk cannot be read or written to. I've already purchased the video (episode of the Office). Does anyone know what I can do to solve this? Thanks.

    Easy way. Reset the iPod, then disconnect when you see the Apple logo.
    Another way. Hold ctr-alt-del to bring up the Windows Task Manager. Go to the Processes tab and look for iTunesHelper.exe and iPodService.exe. Select them and hit the End Process button. Close the Windows Task Manager Window and try ejecting the iPod via the safely remove hardware method.
    If you are still having problems you can try one more thing. Right click on the My Computer icon and select Manage from the list of actions. Go to the Services and Applications item and from there the services item. Double click on the services item to bring up the list of services currently installed on your computer. Look for the iPod Service and double click on it. From the new window select Stop. Now try again to eject using the safely remove hardware option.
    Some anti-virus security software (particularly McAfee) can also cause a problem, and if you have this you might want to try turning it off and see if the iPod then ejects correctly.

  • HT1491 Downloaded movie from Itunes onto Ipad, when tried to watch it would not start

    Downloaded movie from Itunes onto Ipad, when tried to watch it would not open and start.

    From iTunes on the iPad or from iTunes on your computer? BTW, you are trying to watch the movie in the videos app, correct?
    if you synced the movie to the iPad, delete it and sync it again. Tap the Edit Button in the Movies tab of the Videos app and then tap the X on the movie icon to delete it. Then sync it again.
    if you downloaded it directly to the iPad, close the videos app completely, reboot the iPad and then try again.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • HT203200 How can i solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes??

    How can I solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes.   The apple support people cannot even figure it out!??

    The 2330 error often means some sort of damage to the filing system as might happen if the battery fell out while the disk was in use.
    Try running a disk check to see if it finds and fixes any errors.
