Error message (-3256) when hooking iTunes up to Airport

Whenever I try and hook iTunes up to remote speakers thru the airport an "Unknown error message (-3256)" keeps coming up and I can't stop it.
What does it mean and how can I stop it?

First, upgrade your Airport Express firmware to v6.3
If that doesn't work, try this (sorry, the steps are for 10.4 since that's what I have).
In your Firewall settings (System Prefs -> Sharing -> Firewall), there may be a UDP port blocked that iTunes uses to get to the Airport speakers.
Click the "Advanced" button and enable Firewall Logging. Then open the log and try to connect. It will open a window with the title ipfw.log. If you get a message like "Deny UDP 192.168.1.1:1900" at the same time you are trying to connect, you may need to allow that port specifically.
To do so, return to the Firewall tab under Sharing and click "New..." Pick "Other" for the Port Name, then put in the number of the UDP port you found in the previous step in the blank for UDP Port Number(s). Add a Description so you'll remember what this is. Close and re-start iTunes and try again.

    I have just downloaded the latest version of Itunes (or rather the latest update). And now I get an error message when i lauch Itunes: -(41110).
    However, it does not prevent me from actually using Itunes. It's just an error box that appears when Itunes is launched. Any idea?

  • Error message (13013) when opening iTunes

    Can anyone help with this enquiry. I amm trying to open iTunes but the following error message pops up when I do this: "the iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (13013)". I have been able to unistall & reinstall iTunes but am unable to open it. Help please.

    A couple of things to try.
    Try deleting "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" from your iTunes folder.
    If that doesn't work, try rebuilding your library.
    With iTunes closed, drag iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Library.xml out of you iTunes folder to your desktop.
    Then try opening iTunes, if iTunes opens, you will have an empty library, then you can import iTunes Library.xml.
    There are instructions here:

    Thanks!

    the -50 error could be related to ITUNES trying to synch with outlook. and there is a problem with it.
    go in the options of your ipod and desactivate those options

  • Error message 651 when I try to join Airport Express via Windows 7 laptop

    Hi
    I have a Macbook Pro - no problems.
    My daughter has to use a Dell Laptop for work at home and not through choice.
    It has been working seemlessly joining our Airport Express network, but now refuses
    to connect automatically or when I click on connect ( Error message 651 )
    She really needs to get this work done at home, but we've found it impossible to
    get on the Internet. I've googled error 651 but get loads of Windows dead ends.
    Any help from an Apple expert might help solve this problem
    Thanks in advance of any replies.
    Regards

    Looks like I fixed it., thanks to another post I read.  I went into my Norton Security.  Under Settings. Chose Firewall. Program rules. changed the itunes setting from "auto" to "allow"  This also fixed my error (-3212) which would not allow me to connect to the iTunes store. 

  • Error message received when downloading itunes?

    While trying to update my iPhone & iPad I was asked to download an update to iTunes.  I have tried 10 times and just keep getting an error code 2324.  Cannot find any information on it.  Does anyone know what is wrong?  Now the older version has been corrupted and will not work either.  I have Windows 7 with a 64 bit operating system so there should be no problem.

    Hmmm. Bang goes the theory of trying to get a heads-up on a 2324 with the other message.
    The following is a better bet with a 2330 (rather than a 2324), but it might be useful to get the possibility off the table.
    Let's try running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, does itunes launch without the 2324 afterwards?

    Any help you could give would be awesome!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried something like the above then try opening iTunes in safe mode (press and hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases. You may find that iTunes opens normally now.

  • When I connect my iTouch to my PC (windows 7) an error message is displayed reading "iTunes was unable to load dataclass information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later".

    When I connect my iTouch to my PC (windows 7) an error message is displayed reading "iTunes was unable to load dataclass information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later". I have completely uninstalled and then reinstalled iTunes. I have also completely reset my iTouch to factory defaults. I have even followed all the advice provided previously to other forum member with the same problem. Nothing seems to work. Please help me someone.

    I'm getting the same problem with both my IPad 4 and iPhone 5
    Just started a few weeks back, Since then I have had two Itunes updates.
    Is this something Apple is aware of and trying to fix?

  • TS3258 I get error message -42408 when trying to download itunes update 11.0.2 and thus can not upgrade to latest version.  What should I do?

    I get error message -42408 when trying to download itunes update 11.0.2 and I therefore can not update to that latest version.  What can I do?

    Hey there davidgor2!
    I have found an article that should help you resolve this issue with updating your iTunes. The article can be found here:
    iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
    and the specific part of the article you will want to look at first is right here:
    "Error 42023" through "Error 42408"
    These alerts might occur when trying to authorize iTunes or during launch when iTunes checks for authorization information.
    Install the latest iTunes from apple.com/itunes/download/
    Remove the SC Info folder.
    If that does not resolve the issue, see iTunes: "Error 42408" or "Error 42404" after upgrading to iTunes 9.0.3.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Regards,

  • I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

    I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

    Did you already try these suggestions?
    Check USB connections
    Related errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

  • I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder.

    I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder."
    I have tried a few things but iTunes closes right after i click okay. Anyone know anything?

    Look in your Home > Music folder.  There should be an iTunes folder there and it should have a number of files and folders including one called library.itl  You want to guide iTunes to that file.  If you don't see that file or folder then in your next post you will have to be very specific as to what you do see or how you have your iTunes set up because that's where it should be according to default settings.
