Error message when atttempting purchase or attempting to authorize computer
When I try to purchase something or when i attempt to authorize my computer I receive a message that reads:
"We could not complete your request. iTunes store temporarily unavailable.(5555)"
This is close to what the messsage sayay give or take a few words. What am I doing wrong?
Hello sarahannlayne,
From my experience with the same error, it has always been a temporary issue.
Meaning, keep trying and it should connect eventually.
Perhaps it could be a traffic issue or some type of other issue at The iTunes Store. But for me, after trying several times, it connects.
Also, Per KB 300870:
"Try quitting iTunes and reopening it. If the issue persists, it's possible the store is temporarily unavailable for maintenance. Try again in a few hours."
Hope this helps,

I get the following error message when trying to download ITunes on my computer running Windows XP - Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple Application Support\CFNetwork.dll
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.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

'General Error' message when rendering purchased footage
Hi folks,
I just received some royalty-free footage in the mail which I ordered awhile back.
I'm finding that some of the clips import and render fine, while others import fine but give a 'General Error' message when I try to render. In essence, I'm able to use only some of the clips.
I actually have footage from TWO DIFFERENT companies, so I'm thinking the problem is not with the footage but with Final Cut Express's ability to render the files. Has anybody else gotten this 'General Error' message when trying to render royalty-free, purchased footage?
Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how to fix it?
Thanks very much!
VicHmm....if they're HD, try using MPEG Streamclip (free) and see if you can open them, and convert to Quicktime (command-E in Streamclip) using the Apple Intermediate Codec for your codec. What frame size are they? 1280x720? 1920x1080? Hopefully they are one of those standard sizes.
Once you have a converted file (which by the way will be much larger than your downloaded purchased files), then you can import them into FCE, but before doing so, make sure you go to Easy Setup and select the preset that matches the footage (for example, if it's 1920x1080 and 30fps, then in Easy Setup select the HD popup then under "Use" select the Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60 preset.) Then create a new empty sequence, then import your files. -
Error message when transferring purchases
When I try to transfer my ringtone purchases to itunes from my 3GS I get a error message..." Attempting to copy to the disk 'Macintosh HD' Failed. The Disk could not be read to or written from". My ringtones were purchased directly from the iTunes store on the phone. now if I need to restore the phone it warns me I'll lose the ringtones and have to purchase them again..... Help !
Apple Support contacted me and instructed me to update my Apple ID. A simple change in my username seemed to fix the issue.

I am trying to upload short MP4 videos from my iPad 2 running iOS 5.1.1 to Flickr. These videos were taken on a Panasonic FZ150, and I am able to upload videos from this camera from my iMac when I am at home. (I am currently thousands of miles from home, which is why I want to upload from my iPad.)
I can upload photos from iOS iPhoto, but when I select videos, the selection count does not increase, and so they are not uploaded.
There is no Flickr app for iPad, but I tried the iPhone app, and was able to upload photos. However, when I try to upload videos, I always immediately get the error message:
"An error occurred. We could not upload your video. Please try again."
Frustratingly, there is no indication of what the error is.
Finally, I tried the Flickr website uploader page, but all the "Choose File" buttons were dimmed, so apparently there is no attempt to integrate ithis page with iPad,.
I have had the same experience several times over the last few weeks in different locations, including private homes and hotels, none of them corporate offices with strong firewalls, and I am not running any firewall software other than standard iOS.
I welcome any suggestions, workarounds, etc., that will enable me to upload videos from IPad to Flickr.KRDHarris-
I am not familiar with Flickr, but found their support page at <Flickr Support>. You may get better help there than here. I get the impression that the App is somewhat buggy.
The iTunes preview page indicates the App is for iPad as well as the iPhone. <Flickr App Preview>

Define Document Types
Select "EC", (or those related with BBP), then double click on
"Allowed Item Categories".
2) IMG -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order ->

== This happened ==
A few times a week
== About when I up graded to the latest version/Hi Rambo,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments. From the information you have provided here, its sounds like a couple of different things can be causing this issue. In looking at some previous instances where this error code was reported when using the application builder, it would be worthwhile to look at the file name field and the location the VIs are saved.
Take a look at the field where the file name is provided and ensure only the name is in this location. By this I mean that the file path and name aren't both concatenated and entered here.
Also, if the VIs are saved in the user library or the vi library see if it makes any difference if they are moved to another directory.
I hope this helps! If not, any other possible information that you have or may come upon would definitely be helpful. Have a great day!

Error message when try to sync a video from computer to ipod. Help? ;)
The video plays fine in my library but when I try syncing it to view on my ipod touch I get the following error....
video1.mov was not copied because the video format is not supported by the ipod
Anybody be able to help me out here? Thanks.Hello seamas08,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Was this video downloaded from the iTunes store or imported from elsewhere? If you imported it into iTunes from elsewhere, try using iTunes built in converter to convert the video to an even friendly iPod format. To do this, locate the video in iTunes and highlight it. Then choose "Create iPod or iPhone version" from the Advanced drop down menu. Lastly, try syncing the newly converted video to your iPod.

Error message when trying to log in to authorize my computer?
Why will my password not work when I want to authorize my computer with Adobe Digital Editions when I can log into the forum?
And I have more or less the same problem. I can log on to the Adobe site and this forum, but I cannot get my Adobe ID to work when it comes to start reading my book. My password is wrong???
The bookstore I bought my book from is not in the list of stores, so I am not able to try to 'sign in' that way. -
