  • I keep getting the same error when trying to subscribe to Creative Cloud

    Hello,
    I've tried several times to subscribe to Creative Cloud and everytime I get an error when I try to confirm the subscription.
    I tried it yesterday and today on two different computers and got the exact same message :
    "We're sorry, but we're having trouble processing your order. Please come back and try again later. To finish your purchase immadiately, please call us at +1 800-585-0774. If you're not in North America, you can look up a local number here."
    I also tried to contact the phone number 08 05 77 00 77 (French one) but can't reach anyone...
    Any idea on why this happens ?

  • TS3694 Keep getting a 1015 error when trying to restore Iphone 3g

    Hi,  I have a problem with my old Iphone 3G, I upgraded to a Iphone 4 ages ago and just kept my old phone in a drawer, now I want to give it to my niece, so decided to plug into Itunes to reset it ready for her, it said it needed to update and download, it did that, but failed and said to restore it, but I keep getting 1015 error when it goes through the restore.
    Any ideas and options other than going to Genious Bar ?

  • I keep getting a 4000 error when trying to burn discs....only been since the update....Help

    Ever since the Itunes update, I keep getting an 4000 error when trying to burn my music to disc.  How do I fix this?

    Zachy,
    It goes something like this...
    Put your new drive in the enclosure. Use Disk Utility to format it, etc. I'd give it a slightly different name than the original. Let's say you have Old Disk and New Disk as your drive names. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy Old Disk to New Disk. Now you should have an exact copy, which you can test by rebooting and holding down the Option key. Choose New Disk from the list and let it boot, make sure all is well.
    Shut down and physically swap the drives. Take Old Disk and put it in the enclosure. Now your system has a new disk with a lot more space and you can reformat your old disk and just use it for large files or whatever.

  • I keep getting an unknown error when trying to connect to the store. I ran diagnostics and it says secure link to itunes store failed.

    I keep getting an unknown error when trying to connect to the store. I ran diagnostics and it says secure link to itunes store failed. I've tried all suggestions from apple and nothing will work.
    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.

  • Keep getting sync service error when trying to connect my iphone 5S.

    Keep getting sync service error when trying to connect my iphone 5S. It freezes itunes and I can't do anything else. I see that there is an update for my phone and I need to back up, upload new apps, etc before installing. I plug my phone in and get this error every time. I am using a Win 7 SP1

    Howdy Susie48825,
    It sounds like you are getting an error that mentions the sync services when you connect your phone to your computer and so you cannot sync your device. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article that  mentions an error regardign the sync services named:
    iTunes for Windows: "Unable to load data class" or "Unable to load provider data" sync services alert
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2690
    Start with these steps:
    1. Check that iTunes is up-to-date
    Ensure that you have updated to the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Reset Sync History
    Resetting your Sync History is a simple step which may resolve some syncing issues. If this works, iTunes will prompt to Merge or Replace the information on your device when you next attempt to sync. To reset your Sync History:
    Disconnect your device.
    Open iTunes.
    From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
    Click the Devices tab.
    Click the Reset Sync History button, and then reconnect your device.
    If this resolves the issue, and you know all of your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your computer:
    Reset the Sync History again using the steps above.
    Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
    Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" select Contacts or Calendars.
    Click Apply.
    If the issue persists, and you know all your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    Remove all of the contact and calendar information from Outlook.
    Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
    Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" make sure Contacts and Calendars are not selected.
    Click Apply.
    There are additional steps to use in the article if needed, but these will get you started.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Please help.  Keep getting a conversion error when trying to convert a PDF to a .docx. Advice?

    Please help.  Keep getting a conversion error when trying to convert a PDF to a .docx. Advice?

    Sara,
    Please see my answers in bold below.
    What browser are you using? Try clearing the cache, or using a different browser. N/A
    Are you converting from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website. Within Reader.I disabled the OCR and this did not work either. Try converting from within Reader, and disable OCR as detailed in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel.
    Are you on a networked computer? Make sure that there aren't any firewall/proxy settings that are preventing you from uploading files to the Internet. Not having problems uploading the file--that works fine.
    Make sure the file is within the file-size limit of 100 MB. It is <40.
    I get the error message, "File failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online."
    Thanks for your help in advance.

  • I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"

    I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read". I am able to open pdf files in IE and other programs.

    I am encountering the same problem -- though with .qfx files from my bank. This worked fine in Firefox 31 ESR, but since upgrading to Firefox 33.0, I get the "<name>.qfx.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read" when I attempt to download. (I should add that downloading PDF statements from the same site works fine, and that the qfx downloads work fine in IE and Chrome.)
    I tried safe mode, it is still broken. Tried v34 beta, no luck. I reverted to version 31, it works again.
    I guess I will stick with the older version until a solution is found...or just use an alternate browser to download my financial data.

  • Get the following error when trying to sync itunes to Nano itunes could not coppy " Song"  to the ipod because unknown error occurred (-5000).  Any ideas?

    Get the following error when trying to sync itunes to Nano itunes could not coppy " Song"  to the ipod because unknown error occurred (-5000).  Any ideas?

    Try my script FindTracks. Select a few of the missing files to start with then run the script. Choose No at the first prompt so that you can check how it works track by track, then confirm or edit the location of the media folder where your files are. Once you are happy with how it behaves let it process larger numbers of tracks automatically.
