Error 5002 when trying to purchase Janruary software

Hey guys
i'm trying to purchase the Janruary software for my touch however, when it asks me to sign in, i get the error box
"We Could Not complete your iTunes store request. An unknown error occured (5002)
There was an error in the iTunes store, please try again later"
So i've waited a day, and i'm still getting it! any ideas? Thanks Tom

It could be related to the errors than some users are seeing today and yesterday about checking billing address.

Why do I keep getting an "error 5002" when trying to purchase my wish list?

Why do I keep getting a "error 5002" while attempting to purchase my iTunes wishlist?

I've been trying to figure this out for the past four days myself. I tried everything I could to reset my account information since most of the forums indicated the problem was with my payment information. That didn't ring true for me because I regularly make purchases with no problem. In my case, the problem was that one of the songs I was trying to purchase had been purchased previously. I found this out when I went to each song in my wish list individually and hit the buy button. Surprisingly, each song was purchased and downloaded successfully. When I got to the sixth song or so in my wishlist, iTunes told me that I had already purchased that song and asked if I wanted to download it again. I said yes. I then hit the buy all button for the remaining songs (the behavior that had not worked previously and generated the 5002 error) and the download happened properly.
I realize that the 5002 error seems to be generated by multiple issues, but that is what worked for me. Perhaps you could try the same approach and see what happens if you haven't already resolved your issue. Good luck.

Getting error 5002 when trying to purchase software update for 1st gen iPod Touch

The iPod Touch currently has iOS 2.2.1. I am trying to purchase the iOS 3.1 update by following the link on this support page: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052
Upon signing in and agreeing to the terms of service I recieve error 5002. I have restored the iPod and the error still occurs. I have tried purchasing the update on multiple Apple accounts and on multiple computers, both Mac and PC with no success.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!

Receiving error 5002 when trying to purchase one item but not when purchasing anything else

So I am able to purchase other things fine but am stuck with one particular item. I have submitted the itunes help form twice and no response thus far. I see that some people say that the error is something to do with billing which makes little sense to me as most everything else purchases fine. I even purchased some things after i first got the 5002 error and have already recieved the bill for it.
Anyone know of any way to fix this issue?

I'm having the same problem trying to buy a CD, I was able to buy a song but not a CD ?????

If one is downloading directly to the iPhone via WiFi, it doesn't matter what version of iTunes is on the computer.
I decided to sync my phone to Outlook via iTunes. First thing, iTunes discovered that 7.0.3 was not on my phone. It asked if i wanted to install it. I said, "yes", and VOILA!! 7.0.3 is now installed on my iPhone.
So therein is the answer. Have no idea what bug is in there to keep it from loading to some phones directly via WiFi, but obviously, it is something!!
There is no bug. While you can update your iOS via wi-fi, it's recommended to do so via USB & iTunes. Depending on your wi-fi connection & singal strength, you can get errors. That's not a function specifically of the device.

This behavior was described here many times.
Apple delivered a technote about that.
Go to my public BOX (address below)

uninstall iWork '09.zip
Expand the archive then run the script.
After that, reinstall the application (or the entire package)
If you bought Pages thru the Mac App Store, there is no need to pay one more time.

I just set up my new iMac, and receive error messages when trying to purchase from the iTunes store (error 8003) or update from the App store (error 403 forbidden). THOUGHTS?

I am not sure what you mean by "Flash Player for steam"; the only Flash Player installers I know is the ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) and the plugin (for other browsers); you can find both at http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header

I get error 5002 when trying to redeem gift cards , what do I need to do to fix this.

I get error 5002 when trying to redeem gift cards, what can I do to fix this?

http://store.apple.com/us
I have been trying to fix this myself and just found a way tonight. This started happening after I downloaded a new version. I tried several other approaches and was unsuccessful until I was directed to the support website. I searched for 5002 error. I chose specific conditions and alert message. Then chose "Error 5002" which gave a little detail.
Basically I had to go to the above site and change my password and some other account information. It didn't work when I tried in my actual ITUNES application. I think because my account was so old and they upgraded some security items like stronger passwords etc., so the old stuff was no longer good enough. I have now redeemed two gift cards. I hope it helps.

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.

If you used iTunes on your computer to download the app, suggest you download the app using your iPad. Should then install correctly.
