Error -50 when trying to purchase songs from itunes store

When I try to purchase songs from itunes store I get error -50 or the message that their is not internet connectivity (which is not the case).
Any suggestions for a way to fix this?

In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

Has anyone heard of error 45054 when trying to purchase music from itunes?

Has anyone run into error 45054 when trying to purchase music from itunes?

I had this problem just recently.
I discovered that the problem was located here: ROOT / Users / Shared -- if you open that and the "adi" folder has a little red minus symbol in its corner, your permissions have somehow been lost. (If you can't see your root directory, open Finder Preferences and, under sidebar, check "Hard disks." That will make your root drive visible.)
If the "adi" folder has the red minus symbol, right-click the folder and select GET INFO.
Sharing & Permissions is probably set to "System: Read & Write | wheel: Read Only | everyone: No Access"
If so, your user account has no permissions, and that means iTunes can't use the folder properly.
To fix this, first unlock the folder using the padlock icon in the bottom-right corner of "get info." You will have to supply your admin password to do this.
Then click the little + sign in the bottom left corner to add a user, and select your user ID from the list of choices. Give yourself Read & Write permissions. (Alternatively, you could change the permissions of "everyone" to Read & Write; others have done that, but I was leery of doing it).
Re-lock the folder when you're done.
Hopefully that will solve it.

Getting Error 9812 when trying to buy music from ITunes store

I want to buy one song from the ITunes Store. I am able to access the song, but when I push the "Buy Song' button, it says "Unable to access Itunes store - an unknown error occurred - 9812". I have tried to fix ITunes through the Control Panel - this did not help. I tried switching ethernet cords - this did not help. I am able to access the internet and receive email so I don't understand why I cannot access the store.

If you've bought them recently, it's not actually an authorization issue; the songs are corrupt. Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

Getting error message when trying to play songs from library saying original file could not be found

when trying to play songs from library, getting message saying original file could not be found .. my full library all says the same .. can anyone help ?

Hello Ceeclass,
I suggest this article named iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408.
It should help you locate the media that is not playing in the iTunes library.
Take care,

Can't open purchased songs from itunes store

I downloaded songs from itunes store a while back. My laptop crashed and now i have a small ASUS eee pc with a 4gb hard drive. I have windows XP SP1 and cannot upgrade to SP2 (not enough room on my HD). i had to get an older version of itunes that's compatible with SP1. I can see the songs that I purchased but when I click on them it asks for password to authorize, then i enter it and then it says 'this computer is already authorized.' So now, what do I do? Help!!! I want the songs I bought!

Was your backup copy stolen as well?
If so, you can try e-mailing itunes support to see if they will make an exception, although they are under no obligation to do so.

When trying to purchase anything from itunes/appstore via clickandbuy safari cannot load last stage page...any solutions?

I am trying to purchase apps from the app store. As the app store is declining everytime telling me my details are wrong after many attempts at re-entering and reloading the page, i decided to try the click and buy option which doesent seem to work either. The detail process is fine, its the final stage of verifying everything and loading to process the account/order? (not sure as havent got past that stage). Is anyone else having?had this problem and is there any solutions??

iTunes 9 uses the Safari 4.0.3 interface to access the iTunes Store.
If you don't have Safari 4.0.3 or higher on your computer, get it here: http://www.apple.com/safari/download/
Be sure to choose the version for Tiger (OS 10.4.x).
You can set Safari to accept cookies only from sites you visit (blocking third-party sites and advertisers) in the security tab of Safari preferences.
BTW: The iPhone 3G requires Mac OS X 10.4.10 or later. Is your forum profile up to date?
