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?

You have probably downloaded the Norton program which is one of the least desirable helpmates you can invite in.

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.

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!

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.

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.

IPOD Nano experiences error when downloading music from iTunes

To make a long story short, my new Nano wouldn't fully download all songs from my iTunes library. I received an error about a missing file. As I followed the Apple suggestions to fix the problem I eventually got to a point where the Nano was frozen and wouldn't respond to anything. I couldn't even reset it. I took the Nano back and exchanged for another. The exact same thing happened again, which leads me to believe it's not the Nano that is the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

By "download" I assume you mean transferring songs from iTunes to iPod correct?
When the songs are transferring, try to pin down if it's any particular file from your library that's causing this. Watch the status window at the top of iTunes.
It may be a corrupt file from your library that's causing this, and if you can pinpoint which one(s), you can delete them from iTunes and try again.

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.

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.

Is it possible to download movies from iTunes???

I was wondering if it was possible to download movies from iTunes to put on to your iPod, and burn to a disc. I have looked on iTunes and i can't find anything anywhere, however on the apple website there are images from films on iPods....so how do you do it????

I believe the plan that was announced when the Movies were introduced was to roll them out to other stores sometime in 2007 which obviously didn't happen. The reason that stores for different countries have different content is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies, film companies, TV companies and other copyright holders. These are quite often completely different from country to country and therefore all require their own individual contract negotiations. The varying content is not imposed by Apple, who would have a much easier job if they only had to maintain one multi-national store and deal with one set of licensees.

HT4241 How do I get an Epson EX5210 to display using the HDMI mini display port adapter so I can see 1080p downloaded movie from iTunes? It won't recognize the display via hdmi cable and adapter!

Please help! I've tried everything to get this dang thing to display a downloaded movie from itunes on my epson EX5210 lcd projector via a HDMI cable plugged into a minidisplay port adapter. I am no expert and have no idea what to do!

It's all in the manual... starting on page 26...
USB seems to work as well. Tried that?
By the way, this dang thing has "only" 768 physical pixels vertically, so "1080p" won't be visible anyway, and scaling will take place. Hope you won't be diappointed. All specs including resolutions here.
