I keep getting error message (-50) on iTunes while downloading a movie

Hey guys, while I was trying to redeem three of my digital copies from the Lord of the Rings movies, on iTunes I was able to download two of the movies but one of the movie keeps getting an error message stating "There was a problem downloading. _Movie Title_ There was an unknow error (-50)." Is there a solution this is? or a helpful apple article I can use?

Try deleting the partial cached downloads in the iTunes media folder.
That error is outlined here -> iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
"Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023"
These alerts occur due to timeouts or conflicts trying to write a file during download.
If you encounter this issue while accessing iTunes Store:
See iTunes 9: "One Moment Please" or "Error (-50)" message when accessing iTunes Store
If you encounter this issue while while downloading something from the iTunes Store:
Delete your iTunes Downloads folder, located in:
Mac OS X:
  ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Downloads   Note: "iTunes Media" may appear as "iTunes Music. Also, the tilde (~)  refers to your Home directory.
Windows  Vista:
  \Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
Windows  7:
  \Users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
Windows  XP:
  \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My  Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\
After locating your iTunes Downloads folder:
Quit iTunes.
Delete the Downloads folder on your computer.
Open iTunes.
Choose Store > Check for Available Downloads.
Enter your account name and password.

  • I keep getting error messages on the calendar since downloading the new software on my IPAD2. It either says "cannont save event. That event does not belong to that event store" or I get an error message that says that no calendar "has been set".

    I keep getting error messages on the calendar since I downloaded the new software on my IPAD2.  When I try to add a new event it either says "That event does not belong to that event store" or it says "the calendar has not been set".  Does anyone know what these messages mean or how to address this?

  • Get error message on my iMac while downloading new IOS5 update

    Hi to all
    Its very frustrating, since 1 week I'm trying to download the new software update ios5 for my iphone on my IMAC via Itunes.
    Always shortly after the download, when the system unpackes the download I get the error message that the software für my Iphone got damaged
    during the download (error = 1403)
    I also get an error message when I want to download an normal update from apple. For example the new MacOSX Combo Update (see picture below)
    = ungültige Prüfsumme
    I also tried to do the download via my windows pc and got the same error messages, which shows me that the problem cannot be on the IMAC it must have something to do with my network connection.
    Can someone pls help me, I already spent 3 hours with apple care but the only thing they told me is to completely re set up my imac again and hope it works but that does not make sense when I get the same error message on my pc.
    I already :
    - reinstalled lion completley
    - reinstalled Itunes completely
    - setup a new administrator
    - checked with my internet provider whether I have outages
    - downloades other software from different providers -> works fine
    - restarted my internet modem and infrastructure several times
    Only when I try to download something from the apple server I have this problems
    Many thx in advance
    Kind regards

    It's possible that the hard is starting to fail. Make sure you've got it backed up just in case it stops all together.

  • I keep getting error messages when I try to download iTunes

    I have had iTunes on my computer for years.  With the latest software update, iTunes will no longer work on my computer.  I cannot get it to open.  I have uninstalled and tried to re-install.  I keep getting the error message that Apple Mobile Device is not working.  iTunes will not even open.  I have tried to re-install several times. 
    My computer still uses Vista OS, I know it's a dinosaur, but we really only use the PC to surf the internet, print a few documents here and there and to sync with iTunes.
    I am restarting each time I've unistalled and then tried to re-install again.
    Any advice?

    I've disabled my firewall...I've done everything I've read about in the forums...Please help !!

  • Keep getting error message when opening iTunes

  • I Keep getting error messages when updating itunes

    The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with package. The error code is 2349.
    That the error i get when updateing the itunes iv downloaded it like 5 diff times and still the same message what else can i do about it?
    can anyone help me please and thank you for your time

    Although it's a better bet with a 2330 error, I'd try running a chkdsk over your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you've got your program files installed on).
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

    I am trying to download the latest iTunes update; keep getting error message that says "The folder path 'My Documents' contains an invalid character".  This also happens when I try to uninstall iTunes.  HELP!

    OK, never mind!  I saw another question on the right side that addressed the problem, and it worked perfectly!  Went to Major Geeks' page, downloaded the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, and was able to reinstall the updated version of iTunes!  This community is super!

Contact your support personnel or package vendor. I am using windows XP 32 bit, all the other computers in my house downloaded just fine, no problems, however this is the computer my iphone is set up to, ive tried doing a virus scan, windows update, downloading other things, updating everything possible, everything works fine, its just itunes that wont download, anyone have any other ideas?

    Yes, I had found a similar solution also.  I'm running XP Pro, SP3.  I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair.  Then run the 10.5 exe.
    While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess.  Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes.  Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing.  I haven't begun to work on that.
