HT4913 I get unknown error (-54) all the time when trying to update Match or Genious

This also happens when trying to update Genius
This is a new MacBook Pro Retina with all SW up to date & iTunes 10.6.3
I also cannot sync to my iPhone or iPad = time out issue when trying to copy musict to the device
iPhone & iPad are all up to date with the latest version iOS.
My iTunes library is large = ~110GB & I did move it over from a PC.
I can not deauthorize my old PC.
Any clue?

When trying to update Genius & iTunes Match, I always get this error the same time as iTunes has gathered all the info & has just started sending it to iTunes:
"We could not complete your iTunes Store request.
An unknown error occured (-54)
There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later"
I always get this error no matter when I try.
I went to the Apple Store & they could not help me even with an appointment
Their guess is that it has something to do with the SW on this Apple Macbook Pro Retina notebook.
We tried creating a different iTunes account on this notebook & that received the identical error.
I did try Genius & Match from a different Mac notebook, but without my library & there is no error.
This notebook has worked for ~1 hour since I got it new about a week ago & I've had this notebook for 2 weeks now.
Genius & Match both work on my PC notebook, but for some reason my iPhone or my iPad will not sync. I always get Time Outs and the Sync never completes -> message that the Sync is finishing forever or until I unplug my USB cable.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank You,
   Kim

  • I have subscribed to convert PDF to Excel and Word, I have followed your instructions and I get an error message all the time.

    I have subscribed to convert PDF file to an Excel or Word . I have followed your instructions to do so but I always get an error message. I have chated with one representative who suggested that I wait 24h before I try it again implying that my subscription is in process. the time span has elapsed and when i try it, I still get the error message. HELP ME or REFUND me the money

    "an error message" really doesn't tell us much.

  • I keep getting 'unknown error' after clicking 'install app' when trying to download Mavericks from the App store.

    Trying to install Mavericks from the App store on my 2011 11" Macbook air, (wihch has more than 15GB free space).  After clicking 'Install App', and entering the Apple ID password, I get 'unkonwn error'.

    You can't use Safari to download iPad apps. Only use iTunes/App Store.

    Excellent!
    Please note the following:
    Note: iCloud Backup does not back up music, movies, and TV shows that you did not purchase from the iTunes Store, or any podcasts, audio books, or photos that you originally synced from your computer. iCloud Backup will restore your purchased music, movie, and app content from the iTunes and App Stores during the background restore process. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    The above comes from this article:

    Best of luck with this.

  • I d/l your mozilla firefox today and now I get the error 0x80070002 all the time...how do I fix that?

    Hi,
    The error is totally unrelated to Firefox. Please see [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910336 this]. The [http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us Windows OS forum] will also be helpful.
    Please also check the downloaded file by right-clicking > Properties > Digital Signatures, which should say '''Mozilla Corporation''' and '''This digital signature is ok''' in '''Details'''. You can download Firefox from a known site like e.g. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    You can try to Reset Firefox which would hopefully display the missing features, all (contacts, emails, settings etc.) of which are actually stored at the MSN site and are temporarily displayed by Firefox every time the site is accessed.
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • I keep getting "Unknown error has occurred" every time I try to login, but Itunes is working fine.

    I keep getting "Unknown error has occurred" every time I try to login, but Itunes is working fine.  I have now called support twice with no help.

    Ok..  try restarting your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, temporarily disable anti virus software.
    Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent access to the App Store as well as third party download managers.
    Try installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    That will reinstall the App Store for you which may help. It's ok to do this even though you already have v10.6.8 installled.

  • I usually have 3-4 tabs open which I am saving to read later. But I loose them all the time when firefox crashes or when another appliaction opens firefox to download. Is there a way to save my tabs ?

    I usually have 3-4 tabs open which I am saving to read later. But I loose them all the time when firefox crashes or when another appliaction opens firefox to download something and it will discard all my tabs. This is incredibly annoying, is there a way to save my tabs ? or get them back when there is no "restore session" button ?

    In Firefox Options / Privacy be sure "Remember download history" is checked. To see all of the options on that panel, "Firefox will" must be set to "Use custom settings for history".
    To find your OS information, on your Windows desktop, right-click the My Computer icon, choose Properties, under System on that small window is info about your OS.

  • I want it to ask the master password all the time when I open the site which my password is saved

    I want it to ask the master password all the time when I open the site which my password is saved.
    This is not the problem, may be a feature.

    Your question is quite vague, but if I am right then, go to Tools> Options and then "Security" Tab then select "Saved Passwords" and you should find all the passwords you have saved for websites so far. If its an issue with the master passwords that is for Firefox itself, then the Master Passwords option is right above this. Have a look at the image below.
