Error code 5103 when renting a movie

I get the following error message when I rented a movie from iTunes store, "An unknown error occurred (5103)". I downloaded the movie and when I tried to watch it, I got that message. I have tried disabling my firewall, reset iTunes cache, and restart iTunes and my computer and nothing has worked. I can get onto the internet and secure websites as well. I am at a loss.

Apple TV2 error code 144 when streaming Netflix movies

Hi,
I'm new to the community and haven't quite figured out, how to search for the right discussions, so if anyone knows where to find the discussion, solving my problem, please let me know!
Here's my problem:
I have an AppleTV2, which I bought in the Netherlands. I recently moved to Canada and used it here without problems. I got a Netflix account and watched movies until 2 days ago, when the error code 144 occured, when pressing play on any movie.
In detail, the error massage says:
"A problem occurred while playing this item. Try again later, or select a different item. Go to netflix.com/support for more information. (144)"
So I first waited a day, but it didn't work. Then I went to netflix.com/support to search for the error code, but it's not registed. I also called the Netflix hotline, but they said they don't know that code and I should call Apple. Unfortunately, Apple wants to have 29 dollar to help me. Well, NO! So now I'm here and hope sombody knows what to do.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Best regards
tddk

Have you tried rebooting the AppleTV? Press and hold the Menu and Down buttons until the status light on the AppleTV blinks rapidly. Once the main menu reappears it'll take a little longer for the AppleTV to respond to the remote (still rebooting).
This isn't guaranteed to solve the problem but it often does.

Error code 5103 "Unable to Play" with rental movies! Please help!!

I have a PC with Windows 7. iTunes 10.5.2. I purchased 2 rental movies and have downloaded them a few times now. But when I press "Play" I get the error code 5103 - Unable to Play. This has been going on for 2 weeks.
Please help!!!!

All it says is to download the lasted vers in iTunes which I already have.
That's not true. It goes on to say:
"If you have the most recent version and are still unable to download your rental, you may be able to resolve your issue by removing the "SC Info" folder. To do so, follow these steps:"
... and then gives links to instructions on how to do so for your particular operating system. So best to proceed with the instructions for your operating system.

ITunes Rental Error Code 5103

I can't watch rentals, and they don't process. I continually get an error code 5103. Is anyone else getting this same error code?
Thanks,
David

Thanks for your response. I'm still having trouble playing movies (error code 5103) on my desktop computer, but I tried an experiment with downloading the incomplete downloads to my laptop, which is an old PowerMac G4. The movies downloaded and played, but since that laptop is so old, the streaming was really slow and the movies were unwatchable.
In my case, I had a kernel panic that reset my clock on my desktop. This happened after I had rented one movie. I reset my clock to the correct time and am still getting the error code, even with new rentals.
I suspect that Apple has written code that identifies your actual computer ID, or at least your IP address. This code must cause the iTunes Store to lock your account for that particular computer if the time changes.
I've tried every conceivable solution to no avail. Reauthorizing the computer won't do the trick either.
They really should do something about this problem, since users have various reasons why their clocks could change (relocating, battery going dead, and so on.)
If anyone else has a solution, it would be greatly appreciated.

Error code 50 when copying from TC to external HDD

Hi all, I bought a 3tb TC and backed up about 1.3tb worth of data onto it from an external HDD, I then formatted the external HDD to FAT 32 as I found out that TC does not like to work with FAT 32, no matter, the hard drive ois fixed now. However, when I go to copy all the data back onto the external HDD. i get "an unnexcpected error occured error code -50" or something like that, but the error code is definetly 50. I got this error when trying to copy the movies through, they are MKV files, I checked all the names and I dont think there are any problems with them.
the setup so far is as follows. Externall HDD --USB--> Time capsule. All operations are being executed through an imac.
HELP ASAP will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Error codes are really hard to figure out.. but i think it will be due to permissions.
See http://pondini.org/TM/C10.html
It is an error from TM but I think it comes from underlying OS..
Can you copy files to this disk from a source other than the TC.. try copying a file from the TC to the Mac and then from Mac to the external disk.. but make sure it is plugged directly into the mac.. if you have issues look carefully at permission. And format/partition type.. do use GUID partition not MBR Or the older Apple systems.

Error code -10810 when starting up any app

Getting error code -10810 when I click to start any app in the Application folder. Only thing different I did this morning was upgrading coconutBattery. I'm guessing that's the culprit but would like to know what the error code means.

From LSInfo.h in LaunchServices.framework
kLSUnknownErr = -10810 /* Unexpected internal error */
Essentially, Launch Services is hosed. I would suggest blowing away your Launch Services cache.
1) Quit all running apps
2) Go to /Library/Caches
3) Move any file to the trash that has "com.apple.LaunchServices" in its name. (i.e. 'com.apple.LaunchServices-0230.csstore')
4) Go to ~/Library/Preferences
5) Move com.apple.LaunchServices.plist to the Trash
6) Restart
Hope that helps.

Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.

I am getting error code 8003 when I try to empty my trash. Any help?

I am getting error code 8003 when I try to empty my trash. Any help? This happen right after I tried to clear my backup HD.

Greetings,
If you dragged items from a TimeMachine backup drive to the trash then that is most likely the cause of the issue. Do not move files from the TimeMachine backup into the trash (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427).
If your backup drive only contains a timemachine backup then you will want to reformat that drive:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1600
Keep in mind that before you reformat the backup drive that you remove any files you wish to keep to your computer.
Cheers.

DAG - Backup failing on 1 DB only with error - The Microsoft Exchange Replication service VSS Writer instance ID failed with error code 80070020 when preparing for a backup of database 'DB012'

Hi Board,
i´ve search across the board, technet and symantec sites but did not found a hint about my problem.
we drive a 2 node DAG (Location1-Ex1-mb1
Location2-exc1-mb1), on SP2 RU4 patchlevel with 40 Databases.
Since some time the backup of one - and only one DB - is failing with these events, logged on the Mailboxserver on which the passive DB is hosted.

The backup Application - Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R3 – states, this error

Symatec suggests within http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH184095
to restart the MS Exchange Replication Service – BUT the mentioned eventID
8229 isn´t present on any of the both Mailboxservers.
The affected Database is active on Location2-Exc1-Mb1 Server and in an overall healthy state. I found during my research, that below Location2-Exc1-Mb1 Server, there are not removed shadow copies present!
This confuses me, since all Backups are normally taken from the passive copy of a Database.
So my questions to the board are:
* Does anyone is facing similar issues?
* Can someone explain why snapshots are present on the Mailboxserver hosting the Active Database, whilst the errors are logged on the passive one?
-          * Does someone know the conditions, why shadows copies remain and
aren´t removed in a proper manner?
What can cause the circumstance, that only 1 DB is facing such issues?
Any suggestion is welcome!
BR
Markus

Hi Lenora,
I´ve encreases VSS / Exchange Backup Log levels to expert, before starting
those things i´ve all tried now:
- Backup from passive DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from active DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from passive DB without GRT enabled (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from active DB without GRT enabled(forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
All those attempts failed.
But brought some more details - the backup against the active DB states, that there is still a backup in progress and therefore this backup is cancelled by VSS.
The Solution was, that i´ve needed to restart the Exchange Replication Service on the Mailbox Server hosting the passive DB.
Backups are working again on all DBs!
THX for your replys.
Best regards
Markus

I keep getting error code 4450 when I'm trying to burn a CD from itunes. It keeps my CD and won't eject it and says "cancelling burn" forever then itunes locks up and my cd is ruined and NO songs on it.

i can't burn cd's in iTunes anymore. I get error code 4450 when I'm trying to burn a playlist. Songs from my own cd's, or bought in iTunes (have not burned 7x's as I can't BURN any cd's at all!), Then my cd gets stuck in the drive. and it says "cancelling burn" forever and then itunes freezes up. I have a Dell with Windows 7.
-I've slowed down the burn as slow as it can go
-I have bought 3 different brands of cd's
-i have the latest version of iTunes.
Can someone help me?

I have Windows 7 on a Dell. Open and play iTunes in the compatability mode and use Windows XP (service pack 2). Disregard any messsages to disable the compability mode. This has worked for me. I have also reinstalled iTunes and played with burn speeds etc. These ideas did not work. Compatability mode works.
