HT5100 How can I resolve "error playback failed" message on iTunes U?

When I try to play a lecture on iTunes U I get the message "error playback failed." This started yesterday. I have not had trouble playing lectures before that. Everything else on my ipad 2 seems to be working correctly.
Any ideas? Thanks.

  • How can I resolve error code -54 in iTunes? I am using the latest iTunes. No new updates are available.

    How can I resolve error code -54 in iTunes? I am using the latest iTunes. No new updates are available. I'm using iTunes 11.3 on a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8. I can't save my library in iTunes, the message just keeps popping up.

    From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Although there is no formal list of OSX error code some of the old codes still apply to OSX .)
    First, try simply restarting your computer.
    Try quitting iTunes, then deleting the .xml (not .itl !) version of the library file in the iTunes folder (iTunes will generate a new one).

  • Error: playback failed message deletes my podcasts!

    I am getting tired of this.  I have an iPhone 4S, updated to the most recent software.  Every so often when I open the podcasts app, it will randomly give me an "Error: Playback Failed" message and delete nearly all of my downloaded podcasts.  This is especially aggravating when it deletes podcast episodes that are only available for a limited time (ex. This American Life).  This has been happening for months now.  WHY HASN'T SOMEONE AT APPLE FIXED THIS ISSUE?

  • How can I resolve error -54

    I keep getting an error in tunes saying, "The itunes library file cannot be saved. An unknown error has ocurred. (-54) How can i resolve it?

    The -50 class of errors often involve USB.  Are you saving to a USB mounted device?  Is it mounted directly to a USB on your Mac?

  • How can i resolve error 3014

    when i  restore iphone when i face a problem error 3014

    Possible causes:
    1. Your antivirus is blocking access to gs.apple.com.
    2. Your phone is jailbroken.
    3. Your computer has been used at some time in the past to jaibreak some iOS device (not necessarily the phone with the problem), and its network database was corrupted by the hacking software that was used.
    4. Apple's activation servers are down (very rare, and never for more than an hour or so).
    For 1. try disabling your antivirus.
    For 2. & 3. you need to go somewhere other than an apple forum for help. Although you can try deleting lines containing gs.apple.com from your "hosts" file on your computer.

  • TS1424 Hi how can i resolve error code 1009 ,when i want download from iTunes i receive this error please help me.    Banafsheh

    Hi
    Please help me on error code 1009

    They are free but iTune still checks your payment method but realyydoes not charge anything.  Yo can set up a new/special iTunes account that is only good fro free apps.  However, you will still need our original ID to update any apps thatyour purchased with that account.
    Create an iTunes App Store account without a credit card

  • How can I resolve error code U44M1P2003

    When attempting to update to PS Elements 12.1, it downloads but upon installation I get error code U44M1P2003 and asked that I contact Customer Support.  But have you tried contacting Customer Support?  What a joke.  All I get directed to us this forum.

    Hi Michel,
    Solution 1 - I disabled my BitDefender AntiVirus and attempted to install update 12.1, but still received the error U44M1P2003
    Solution 2 - I located my Windows 64-bit Registry as you listed and all is set properly.  Attempted another update install, but same error.
    Puzzling observation that may be the issue.  When I view my All Programs, it shows Adobe Photoshop Elements 12.  However, when I view my Control Panel - Uninstall list, Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 is not shown.  So there is no way for me to uninstall and reinstall the program in hopes of correcting any registry errors.  Any suggestions now?

    I am having the same problems. My guess is that a lot of people are having the same problems and just living with it. Those of us who know where to go on the Internet come here to find a fix.
    It seems Verizon has some explaining to do. Maybe they should try Beta testing new software a little better. I would rather have to wait longer for something that works. I am sure that some manager or director said this is close enough, deploy it and we will see what happens. Well, you are seeing the problems. Time to fix your mistake.
    All of us are telling our friends about the problems. The longer this goes on, the more people we will tell about it.
    Wouldn't you rather us be telling our friends that their is an error in the new interface and that you are working hard to fix it?
    If you want to be up front about this, then just tell us. We are adults and can handle it. If you made a mistake, own up to it and give us some credit for doing your Beta testing in the field.
    Customer Service is all about telling the truth and if you made a mistake, admit it and lets move on with a fix. I do not want to be told again that I should be able to unplug it, power cycle it, try the on-board diagnostics, etc., etc.......
    I am going to be repsonding on a daily basis to keep this topic at the top of the list.
    Time to come clean. You will feel better Verizon.
    Let's talk tomorrow.

  • HT204053 I am running Windows 7 and have tried to install iCloud.  No matter what instructions I follow, I still get the error message "This Apple ID is valed but is not an iCloud account."  How can I resolved this?

    I am running Windows 7 and have tried to install iCloud.  No matter what instructions I follow, I still get the error message "This Apple ID is valed but is not an iCloud account."  How can I resolved this?

    I've tried both. First, I tried on my pc, where iTunes had installed iCloud when it last updated. I have iTunes installed on this computer (and on my iPad and iPhone), but that wasn't the issue.
    So I went online, thinking I needed a separate iCloud Apple ID, but it prompted me for my current Apple ID and gave me the message about my ID being "valid" but not an iCloud account," which, lol, was what it had asked me to do in order to create one. I checked, and at least one other user is having the same issue. I'll attempt to copy/paste the Support request url: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4430653?tstart=0
    Thank you for any help you can give.

  • Installed yosemite. CS5 no longer workers. Error message about Java SE 6. But SE 6 doesn't seem to have a MAC version. How can I resolve?

    Installed Yosemite on my Mac. CS5 no longer workers. When I try to open Photoshop, I get an error message about needing a Java SE 6. This is different from the other Java update Yosemite required (I already installed that). I assumed the higher update would suffice for previous versions, but I guess it doesn't work that way. Went over to the Java site, but SE 6 doesn't seem to have a MAC version. How can I resolve this?
