Question

I purchased the HD season of "TERRIERS" and it's only let me finish downloading three of the HD episodes. for the others, I've gotten the "error = -50" error every time I try to initiate the download. What is happening and how can I fix it?

Answer 1

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.
