HT201210 itunes error code 42408 ??
I am having trouble with itunes cant get it to open gives me an error 42408 and no other options I am afraid to unisntall it and loose all my music.
I believe it's some kind of software conflict, you should be able to resolve it by downloading the latest version of iTunes here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/#itunes Hope that helps. Also do you backup your computer using time machine? You should regularly backup your computer & music. Rather than remove iTunes, try updating to the latest version.

TS3694 I have an iTunes error code -42408. Cant sync my new iphone 5. Any ideas
I am getting an error message -42408 when I try to authorize my mac mini to accept my new iphone 5. It also appears every time I try make a purchase through the itunes store.Basically everytime I need to enter my apple ID using the mac mini. I have only two computers authorized at present so have not reached the limit of five. Seemingly ipads iphones etc don't count.
Let's try the fixit from the following Microsoft document with that one:

Error Code (-42408) Itunes Store
I am requesting assistance with making purchases in Itunes. For some reason, I receive an error code (-42408) while attempting to purchase music in the Itunes store. Can anyone tell me what the problem seems to be. I have reviewed the posts in Google and it seems like an old problem. Unfortunately, I am on my 2nd ipod because I thought there was an issue with the ipod itself. $150 later, Itunes is still doing the same thing. Please help me...
LVLWith that one (on newer versions of iTunes), the following document is worth a try:

Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support. -
iTunes error code (-45054) comes up when trying to download a M4b file to our computer to synch with an Ipad. We get this error code when we try to open this audiofile in iTunes and when we click on the OK button on the error code box, iTunes quits itself. Won't open without the error box showing: "An unknown error occurred (-45054)" and quits itself when you click on OK to close the error message box. Uninstall? How? Any ideas or suggestions?
Still have the same issue ? I have it too ! Trying to re install iTunes but the issue is always the same ! ??

ITunes Error Code -36. Unable to BackUp to External Drive.
iTunes Error Code -36. Unable to BackUp to External Drive.
As of yesterday 9th Jan,2009, I am unable to backup up all
my 79Gb iTune tracks unto my external Iomega MiniMax Hard drive.
Which is very odd, as I never had a problem doing likewise
in the past.Each time it went smoothly and as planned.
Drag and drop procedures.
Here is the error message I keep getting every time I
try to execute the transfer:-
The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data
in"FBCIndex" could not be be read or written.
(Error code- 36)
Tried all previous soloutions including repairing and fixing
Mac Hard Drive using Disc utilities.
Should I do an Archive and Install or perhaps deleting the
iTunes preference files...all possible soloutions will be gladly
recieved.I'm in your hands.
My Music is my life... you probably
can relate to my level of anxiousness in this one?
CJ*I should have been a Genius!*
Problem solved; I can now drap and drop to update
my itunes folder without any error messages etc,.
Memo to self and others.
ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS when updating your OS
install the COMBO update and not what Software Update selects
for your particular Mac in Software Update.
