ITunes Error messages and what they mean

Hello,
I like to download Podcasts and I enjoy listening to some of them during my down time. But sometimes I get errors such as err = -3259 or err = -3252 but there is no place that I have found to tell what these error codes mean?
What should I do when I get these errors, and where could I go to find the meaning of these error codes?
Thanks a million.

There's an explanation of what a bunch of the codes relate-to/are-caused-by in the *Specific Conditions and Alert Messages* section of the following document:
[iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297]
Your two typically indicate security software trouble, although it's a bit odd that you're only getting them intermittently ... are they always cropping up on some podcasts but not on others?

Is there a listing of error codes and what they mean?

Continually get -3150 and -3252 codes. Can't find info when I search the site. Looks like lots of other error codes. Didn't know if anyone knows where to find a list of what the codes mean...and ways to make them stop.
Thanks.

It happens when the server can't connect to LDAP server. Check to make sure your server is connecting to directory server by going to "Users & Groups" tab in the administration server UI.

Dear Apple team,
I recently bought an iphone3GS from USA and jail broke it. Since I heard the there are lots of disadvantages I thought to unlock it officially through the original owner (in copy). He assisted me and confirmed that he unlocked it with AT& T (See the attachment). According to the instructions I restored the phone. But it is not activating with “Activation server is currently not available, please try again or try with iTunes”
When I try with iTunes , it says “you haven’t inserted a SIM” even though I insert the original AT&T SIM.
My current location is Sri Lanka ,so don’t have any apple support.
Please help me to be a good fan of apple.

How many TOP are in APPS and what they mean........

Dear All
One very basic question, how many TOPs are there in APPS, middle tier and db tier, and what does they mean, like we have APPL_TOP, COMMON_TOP, etc.......
regards

how many TOPs are there in APPSNo specific answer since it differs from release to release. Oracle Apps 11i installation comes with many TOPs defined (e.g. APPL_TOP, COMMON_TOP, FND_TOP, AU_TOP, ..etc).
and what does they mean, like we have APPL_TOP, COMMON_TOP, etcSimply, they are environment variables.
Let us say ..
You have installed the APPL_TOP under /u01/oracle (e.g. /u01/oracle/prodappl)
and,
I have installed it under /u02/oracle (e.g. /u02/oracle/prodappl).
When we both issue "echo $APPL_TOP":
You would get:
$ echo $APPL_TOP -- On Windows, type %APPL_TOP%
/u01/oracle/prodapplAnd, I would get:
$ echo $APPL_TOP -- On Windows, type %APPL_TOP%
/u02/oracle/prodappl

Descritption of property nodes and what they mean

Does anybody know where I can get a good description of property nodes and what the specific properties mean? The help files are a start, but in many areas they are kind of lame..

My company is sending a representative to NI Week to meet with some head honchos from NI on possible improvements and suggestions. I have added what you are asking for to the list of what will be discussed. In addition to property nodes, I am asking for documentation of all methods. I've seen a large TestStand poster that lists API calls, properties and methods, and such. I think the same ought to be done with Labview. Of course that poster would be humongous. Any kind of document would suffice. I am anxiously awaiting the outcome of this meeting.
Many other items are on the list, including some issues that were brought up in this forum. I have asked for a way to "comment out" sections of code without having to use a case structure set to false with all the wiring changes. Another item I asked for was a wizard to automatically generate the basic code for some architectures, like producer-consumer, state machine (simpler that using the state machine toolkit), and such. Many others here have joined in to make suggestions, too numerous to list them all here.

Is there a list somewhere of HP Failure IDs and what they mean?

I'm getting the following Failure ID when I run system disgnostic test on the HDD in a HP Envy
U0823F-6BA705-XD7X1F-60UE03
Anyone know what it means or where I can find out?
The disk itself appears to be running ok. I ran a chkdsk \F on it in a separate computer which found and fixed a few problems. I've also done a full restore of Windows on the disk (separate issue) but I still get the above Failure ID after this

Hi there,
I managed to find an old list of compatibility with HS-44 / AD-44 but nothing for the adaptor on it's own.
Nokia 3600 Slide
Nokia 3710 Fold
Nokia 3720 Classic
Nokia 5610 XpressMusic
Nokia 5700 XpressMusic
Nokia 6110 Navigator
Nokia 6120 Classic
Nokia 6210 Navigator
Nokia 6212
Nokia 6220 Classic
Nokia 6290
Nokia 6700 Slide
Nokia 6730 Classic
Nokia 7610 Supernova
Nokia E66
Nokia E71
Nokia E90
I can't promise this is ALL th ehandsets though, since the list is quite old. Also I am almost certain that this adaptor converts Nokia 2.5mm to Nokia 3.5mm, Nokia connectors are different to a standard headphone as there is an additional connection for voice.
If using non -Nokia headphones you may need a further adaptor.
Hope this helps a little?

How to set restrictions and what they mean

..\..\Src\AudioRender\AudioPrefetch.cpp-99 error message and what caused it.

I found that when I zoomed into the sequence a lot using the +- keys, that the error message "..\..\Src\AudioRender\AudioPrefetch.cpp-99" kept jumping out at me. It was the last 3 steps of zooming in or out that brought the error message up on screen - a lot of times. It was only happening in one sequence in a particular project. I tried the suggestions for similar error messages that I found on this forum, but I eventually realised that in this project I had a WMV file (PowerPoint exported as a WMV file) which also had *audio* with it. (All the other sequences have WMV files but without audio.)
Going to the troublesome sequence and deleting the sound track from the WMV file fixed the problem. Next, I deleted the WMV file and put it back again. No error message. I then dropped the audio level to zero using the yellow line and the problem came back.
There is one other thing, the PowerPoint WMV file is 30fps and I’m in PAL land, so I interpreted the frame rate to 25fps. (So that PowerPoint transitions and movements etc. are smoother). I re-imported the original 30fps WMV file and put that in the sequence as 30 fps. Lowered the audio level to zero, and zoomed into the sequence. No error messages.
So it looks like a combination of WMV file, interpreting the footage and lowering the audio level to zero that caused this problem.
Do I need to post this somewhere so that Adobe gets to see this bug? (OK it is a rather unlikely combination of events.)

It's not as unlikely as you think. I just ran into the same exact thing. But I don't think it's the WMV.
I'm using footage from a Canon 5D Mark III shot at 60fps, then interpreted to 23.976 and dropped in a 23.976 timeline. I've also adjusted the volume on some of these clips, but not down to -∞. Since the error is "...AudioRender/AudioPrefetch.cpp-99" it makes sense that this is an audio related issue. I have also noticed that in the timeline, my yellow levels line and waveforms disappear when this error comes up.
So far I've been able to get around this bug by copying the clips into a new timeline, but this eventually comes back again.
The one question I have, is are you editing from an external hard drive? I've been editing at work off an external, then backing it up and working off internal drives when I get home. My external drive has been disconnecting itself lately, but it's never been around or at the same time as this error. Thought I'd still check with others though.

Why am I getting an HDCP error message and what do I do about it?

Purchased an HD episode of Firefly, tried to play it before it was done downloading, and got a message that said:
This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
I thought it might be a problem with the download not being completed, but now it's finished, and it still won't play.
Here's what I have to say about this:
1) Why in the **** didn't it say anything about this BEFORE the purchase went through? Seriously, Apple!
2) I've downloaded and played HD from the iTunes store before. Why am I only having this problem now?
3) What do I do about it?

IPhone 4 symbols and what they mean

What does the phone receiver over about 5 dots symbol next to the battery in the top right corner mean. And how do you get rid of it. I first noticed it after I lost all my telephone contacts. I am having to readd everyone and am sure I will miss someone. But I went thru the entire restore process and still didn't get them back. No other problems just hate loosing all my stored numbers I have had for years. Help me with this if you can please. Thanks, Txpondgirl

Why did you let your phone numbers develop slack or run free?
Or did you mean "losing"?

Hey capoislamort,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities! I found the following information about error 1638 that occurs when trying to restore an iPhone:
Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com
Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
Install the latest version of iTunes.
Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. Follow iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

Burning playlists from my iTunes to CD doesn't work anymore. Keep getting a "medium write error" message. What does this mean?

I'm trying to burn playlists onto a cd from itunes. I keep getting a "medium write error" message. What does this mean? I heard that this may mean that I should try burning at a slower speed. I tried this and that didn't help. I also heard that I may need to use a different brand of CD-R disc. I have not tried this yet. I also heard that it could be a software issue or disc drive issue. I recently updated my macbook pro software from tiger to snow leapord. Do you think this could have affected my itunes playlist burning capabilities? Thanks for the help.

A system upgrade should not have affected anything. When did you notice the loss in functionality?

Realize that a MBP that came with Tiger is an old computer and optical drives do not last forever.
You could try a drive cleaning disc to remove dust. Don't be overly optimistic. I suspect it is an old drive issue.

I have just bought an iPhone 5 and it won't sync to iTunes. It says it needs iTunes 10.7, which I have downloaded and installed. I still get the error message and looking at "about iTunes" it says 10.6.3. What do I do??

Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:

HT1926 I was loading an update to my i-Tunes for my computer and got an error message and now I can not open my computer itunes and may have lost all the content. What do I do?

I got a request from apple to update my itunes and while uploading the update, the program gave an error message and now I can not open my itunes and fear that all my music etc is gone? what do I do to correct this problem?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
