Error code when I try to buy a song

Just today I tried to buy some songs, but the error code -42408 came up. What does this mean? I can't buy any more songs?

When I say 'they' I mean the computer when I sign in. It asked me for the code on my card and I typed it in, then it said it was invalid and asked for the serial number.  I seen where the serial number is (listed on the bottom of card) in an example it showed in the 'help' section.  I typed in the serial number but that didn't work either.  I tried this many times and the last message I received when I tried to redeem my card to buy a song was "your gift card or iTunes card has already been redeemed".   I didn't even buy one song yet.  Do you have a phone number I can call.  I can't find one listed anywhere on the site.   I think the people who own iTunes are just a bunch of cheaters trying to get money out of people by buying the cards and then not being able to use them.

    That certainly is not what we want to hear! Your device is Advanced Calling capable, do you have this feature turned on, on your device? If so, the ringback tone service is not compatible with Advanced Calling.

  • I am getting a "-50" error code when I try to sync. Help please.

    What do I do to correct a "-50" error code when I try to sync?

    Hi there patsea,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause this error. Contact the software manufacturer that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows:How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

  • I uploaded the giftcard money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    i put money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    If you still have your old card listed on your account then try selecting the 'none' option and remove it and then try entering the card's details from scratch. If that doesn't work then what is the full error message that you are getting, and the card is registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing) that you have on your iTunes account ?

    You cannot and need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if the article doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    Changing the rescue email address requires supplying two of the answers. They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • HT201209 when i try to buy a song with a itunes card hooked up....

    when i try to buy a song off my account it says "because this is your first time making a purchase on this device, you must verify your identity by answering questions" but i forgot the answers

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • HT204266 I have redeemed points on my account but, when I try to buy a song I tunes doesnt use them it tries to access the credit card associated with the account for payment.

    I have redeemed points on my account but, when I try to buy a song I tunes doesnt use them it tries to access the credit card associated with the account for payment. How do I tell this thing to use the points instead. duh

    By 'redeemed points' I assume that you mean that you've redeemed an iTunes gift card onto your account (?). If you do then are you trying to buy songs for yourself or are you trying to gift them - you can only gift items from a credit card, an account's balance can't be used for gifting. If you are buying for yourseflt and you are being asked to enter/verify a credit card number then are you currently in the country where your iTunes account is based ?
