I keep getting "An unknown error occurred (-50)" on one of my downloads, was wondering how to fix this?

Perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

  • I cannot print from Firefox, keep getting "an unknown error occurred while printing."

    Whenever I attempt to print something from Firefox (email, receipt, and so on), printing fails and I get the message "an unknown error occurred while printing." Printing from Internet Explorer works without any problem.

    I came across the same problem today, also using a 2600N. Window updated the drivers through a Windows update yesterday, so I suspect that's what caused the problem since it was working fine before.
    I tried the reset in about:config and that didn't do jack, but I was able to solve it by removing the printer with device manager and then disconnecting it from my PC, plugging it back in, and letting Windows reconfigure it automatically. It works now.
    Good luck

  • I keep getting an unknown error occurred (-50) when trying to download

    I just bought: episode 1 of season 1 of Lost Girl (Standard Definition).  It offered to start playing it.  When it did it, almost immediately, showed the above error.  Whenever I try to re-download the file, I get the same error.  I have run the network connectivity test and it says everything is fine.

    Fingers crossed. But if you still run into trouble, perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

  • Trying to download Maverick, and keep getting "an unknown error has occurred'

    Trying to install maverick, keep getting 'an unknown error has occured' message when I try to login to my apple account

    Just saw the post from makras.
    There are always a few problems with a new OS. Apple can't police every maker of crapware that's on the planet.
    If you have a WD external drive, I would transfer (not clone) the files from it to another non-WD external drive that doesn't have crapware on it, and then erase the WD drive, and then never ever again buy a WD drive.
    You will find many posts on the Apple Discussions from disgruntled narcissists (a few borderlines too) who blame Mavericks for their computer problems.
    Mavericks is excellent (at least for me).
    Every new OS has some incompatibilities with older software. That's why if someone is an early adopter, they should understand this, and if they have a low tolerance for frustration, or are uncomfortable with basic mac maintenance and troubleshooting, they should not be an early adopter.
    Seems like the vast majority of problems that people complain about on the forums are related to crapware they have acquired on their computers from previous installations and promiscuous downloading habits.

  • I keep getting an "unknown error" when I am trying to install an app. After I have put my correct apple ID in.

    I keep getting an "unknown error" when I am trying to install an app. After I have put my correct apple ID in.

    First, turn off your CAPS lock.  Typing in all CAPS is considered screaming/yelling and many will simply ignore your posting.
    Are you currently having issues?  Is it when trying to purchase only on the device?  Are you able to complete purchases via iTunes on your computer?

    Please Help

    I received this email from Apple and this corrected the problem for me...  I only had to reset the iTunes cache
    1) Open iTunes
    2) At the top menu, click File > Preferences (iTunes > Preferences on a Mac)
    3) In the Preferences menu, click the Advanced tab
    4) In the Advanced menu, you should see a button that says "Reset Cache". Please click this button.

  • I have an Airport Extreme, it's only flashing amber and won't go solid green. I use my ipad 2 to try and setup the Airport and I keep getting "an unexpected error occured, try again."

    I have an Airport Extreme, the light is only flashing amber and won't go solid green. I use my ipad 2 to try and setup the Airport and I keep getting "an unexpected error occured, try again." I've tried my iphone 4 with the same result. I've tried the utilty on my pc and same result. The airport is producing a great wireless signal and working to all devices. I really just want to get in and set the password.

    I have reset several times with no success.
    When you did those resets, did you continue to hold in the reset button until the status light blinked several times?  If you didn't, then you didn't do a full reset.
    Here's what I do to reset an AirPort base station:  I unplug it, press in the reset button, then, while continuing to hold in the reset button, I plug it in.  (Yes, doing this can be easier for people with more than two hands!)  I then watch the status light and wait until it flashes rapidly several times.
    I have a Time Capsule that I couldn't configure at one point.  To recover from that I had to unplug it for many hours.  You might try unplugging your unit overnight.
    By the way, you've been misled by poor field labeling on this forum into typing a large part of your original message into the field intended for the subject.  In the future just type a short summary of your post into that field and type the whole message into the field below that.

  • Why do I keep getting an unknown error 4002.

    Why do I keep getting an unknown error 4002. I seems to happen 5 or 6 times a day. iTunes seems to be working fine but it's kind of annoying. The window pops up and says "We could not complete your iTunes Store request." It tells me that there was an error in the iTunes Store and should try again later. I click OK but it just won't stop.

    I don't want my calendars and reminders deleted from my iMac.  I would rather have them deleted from iCloud, since I never intended to use iCloud to begin with.  The fact that my calendars and reminders are available on other devices that use iCloud is no good to me because I have no other Apple devices.
    You may not have 'intended' to use iCloud but you did. Backup your contacts and calendars, sign out and restore your data.
    Now that you have published your email address in a public space you can expect the spammers to have it, I will ask for it to be removed but we're probably too late.
