Error Message When Making Purchases

Everytime I try to purchase a song or video on iTunes I get an error message (iTunes has encountered an unknown error -2). Does anyone know what the -2 error code means?
I have purchased hundreds of items from iTunes and this was not a problem.

Apple Support contacted me and instructed me to update my Apple ID. A simple change in my username seemed to fix the issue.

  • '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!
    Vic

    Hmm....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.

    Hello,
    Check the following settings in ECC system.
    1) IMG -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Requisition ->     
    Define Document Types                                                       
    Select "EC", (or those related with BBP), then double click on              
    "Allowed Item Categories".                                                                               
    2) IMG -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order ->           
    Define Document Types

  • Need help with an error message when making changes to an IMAP account

    I have several IMAP accounts in my Mac Mail. Today when I tried to edit the, "Full Name" associated with the account I got an error message that said:
    Invalid Directory
    The account path /Users/kristen/Library/Mail/[email protected]@host365.ISPhost.com is already being used by the account "Silver"
    Did I somehow corrupt something? I'm not sure why making this small change to the full name would cause such an error. Please help.
    Thanks!!

    stop() forcibly kills a thread. You shouldn't use this method because if the thread is in a critical section of code, you can cause data corruption or deadlock.
    Instead, if you need to stop execution from another thread, invoke the interrupt() method.
    Good luck.

    When I import an mp3 audiobook file into iTunes 10, and then convert it to an AAC file, and then try to 'Make it Bookmarkable', I get an error message:
    "The variable loc is not defined".

    I am having the same problem. Never had the problem before, so I am assuming it is something in the new iTunes.

  • 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,

  • Flash rookie needs help with error messages when making simple calculator in AS3.

    I am trying to make a simple calculator I have been following this guide:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k3h37YKZJI
    this is my code.
    var Hnum:String;
    var PCnum:String;
    var calc:Number = 25;
    var Total:String;
    num1.restrict = "0-9";
    num2.restrict = "0-9";
    Est_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, calculate);
    function calculate(event:MouseEvent):void{
        Hnum = num1.txt;
        PCnum = num2.txt;
        Total = parseInt(Hnum) * calc;
        Total.toString();
        Total_txt.text = String(Total);
    I am getting these 3 errors:
    Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 14
    1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.text:TextField to an unrelated type String.
    Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 15

    Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 16
    1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type String.
    I have two input text boxs named num1 and num2 and then one dynamic text box named Total_txt.
    This should be so simple I really don't know what im doing wrong?
    Any help would be really appreciated.
    MrB

    If you look at the tutorial I think you will see that you are using "txt"  where "text" is required.  "text" is a property of a textfield, identifying the text that the textfield holds.  I don't know if you are doing something where the num1 object contains another object named txt, but I think my first sentence catches the problem.

  • Purchase Order error message when on Sourcing Cockpit.

    Hi All,
    I have encountered a series of error messages when I try to convert my Shopping Cart into a Purchase Order in SRM 5 within the Sourcing Cockpit. I am using Extended Classic Scenario and have defined the number range in SRM and ECC5. The error messages are below, the moment i try to concert the cart to a Po;
    - Internal number range is missing for transaction type. Inform syst. admin    
    - Transaction type * does not exist. Check entries    
    - Some backend documents could not be generated, or they contain errors  Further Information 
    - No status object is available for 
    I have checked the transaaction type, number ranges assignments, attributes in PPOMA_BBP but fail to find the cause.
    Any pointers would be welcome!
    Thnx,
    Mike

    Hi Muthu,
    The number ranges are consistent as I have checked the number range for local purchase order and this is set as an internal between the range 3000000000 - 3999999999. On the transaction type for BUS2201 Purchase Order, 30 has been set as the Int Number Range, with all other fields left blank.
    The strange thing is that the documents that failed to convert into a PO had been reprocessed in the Application Monitor for Purchase Orders, but when I go back into Sourcing to create the PO, I now get the message:
    "You have either failed to select an item, or you cannot create a follow-on document due to an error that has occurred"
    Regards

    While making a backup copy in Itunes of my Iphone I receive the following error message: While making a backup copy of this iPhone (-35) an error has occurred.  Do you want to continue with altering this Iphone? When you continue al the material on this Iphone will be lost.
    I reinstalled iTunes but that dit not help. After synching iTunes with my iPhone it also asks to authorize my pc and when i Click on ok, it says it is already authorized.
    Please can somebody help me, so I can make backup.
    Greetz,
    Derk

    It's likely that your backup is corrupt. Try deleting the backup, then right click on the name of the phone in iTunes and choose "back up". To delete go to iTunes Preferences, Devices tab. Highlight and delete the most recent backup. Note that sometimes deleting this way leaves some garbage around that can still interfere with a new backup, so you should verify that the backup folder is empty.
    from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
    The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system.   Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac:  ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP:  \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7:  \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.

  • Error message when i'm trying to purchase?

    error message when i'm trying to purchase adobe photoshop.

    Actually the correct translation is "....We cannot process transactions at this time......" as if the problem is not specific to me. But since none of my friends are having this problem and since no one has written a word on twitter about this during the last couple of hours i would say it probably is specific to me.
