ITunes song error -100000 (1 problem song, other 13 ok)

I recently bought an album on the iTunes store. 13 out of the 14 songs downloaded fine, however the first song won't download.
I googled error -100000 and found out it could be something to do with conflicting software on my computer, so I attempted to download the song on my iPhone, but it still failed.
Some help threads also suggest deleting the temp files in the download folder, and downloading it again. I have also tried this, selecting both "check available downloads" and "Download past purchases". Neither works. I have tried restarting itunes (obviously).
When it attempts to download, it will get into a continuous loop of going 0%-100% and then back to 0% again. After several attempts it will display the error -100000 citing the song file may be corrupted. As I mentioned, the rest of the album downloaded absolutely fine with zero problems, it's just this one song.
What other steps could I take? I don't perticularly want to spend £0.99 to download the same song from a diferent album if I can help it.

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

ITunes download error -100000

Downloaded an album, and one song is giving me download error - stopped -100000. I've tried to restart the download a couple times, but it runs, pretends it's downloading and then gives me the error. The internet doesn't seem to know what error -100000 is. Anyone here know?
I've downloaded other songs since the error, and this one just hangs out in the Downloads view.

I can't connect to the itunes store and have some problems with other websites. Some websites load OK. I had the same problem on my iPad and changed the DNS, but don't want to do this on my iMac, anyway, surely I should have my router's DNS?

I can't connect to the iTunes store from my iMac and have problems loading a number of other websites, however some websites load perfectly well. I have had the iTunes store issue on my iPad and resolved it by changing the DNS but surely I should use the DNS for my router. I don't really want to change it for the iMac as I access secure sites with it to internet shop.
Any ideas, I was going to try loading Chrome but can't get it without going through the iTunes store. Anyway, that is treating the symprom not the cause.

Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
and here:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

ITunes will not open-- different problem than others here...

I just purchased the iPod video and I went to apple.com to install the latest version. I went through all the standard prompts as usual. Finally, I get the message that i have downloaded successfully. I got to the iTunes icon on my desktop and after clicking, nothing happens. I get the hourglass and that's it. I've tried rebooting with no change. I even called the Applecare hotline to figure this out. The operator had me to uninstall and install iTunes again. Same thing happened and she was stumped. She told me to come here and ask someone what the problem could be. This is not my first iPod (i have the ipod photo) so I have a general idea of how this thing works. Just can't open the dadburn iTunes!!! I have all my music backed up on an external hard drive so i know my music is somewhere in pc limbo. Help me please!! Oh, and I do have Norton security if that makes much of a difference. Sorry for being so long winded.

It's a lot to shuffle through, but definitely worth it. You also may want to try, if available, to sign onto another XP user account and see if the same symptoms exist. This way you'll know if it's a more user-specific issue or if it's something system-wide. If you don't have another user, temporarily create one (with admin abilities, preferably), and give iTunes a go.
Hope this helps =) Let me know how everything goes.

ITunes download error -100000/corrupted file possible solution

I just would like to acknowledge Kate G back in an older discussion for this simple solution that helped others and I. May not work for everyone, but could for some.
If you have Kaspersky as your primary internet security, then disable the protection under "settings" then in "general settings" temporarily until the download(s) are finished. Also try disabling the firewall just in case. Then re enable everything is once they are finished.
I would assume this could work for other internet security software like Norton or whichever you have.
Hopefully this helps, and if not, then at least it was a try. Doesn't hurt to try.

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

Can not sign into itunes get error code 5002

I was able to sign into iTunes, but when attempting to download a song I received error code 5002 and to try back later. Now I Can not sign into ITunes at all and am still getting the code 5002. I've changed my credit card info via store.apple.com but this did not fix the problem. ran diagnostic check and everything is fine. Is this a problem on their end?

I fixed this error for my daughter after a while by working out that the address in her login profile was a different country from the iTunes and App store that she was logging into...
I also blogged about it to try to help others as this took out a good 6 hours of my Christmas evening trying to set up my kid's MBP.

Trouble downloading ITunes songs; Error -100000

Have been trying to download an album (purchased using a holiday giftcard). While some songs have downloaded successfully, the majority of downloads were interrupted and report the following error: -100000.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? Have also sent off a note to Apple and will post if they send along anything useful.

Install 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and use one of them to extract the contents of the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe installer file, then try installing AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. Even if it won't install you may get a more useful error message as to why not.
Alternatively see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for advice on removing and then reinstalling all iTunes related components,

How do i report an error downloading a song from Itunes (error = -100000)

I purchased a song from Itunes with a number of other songs, all other downloaded as usual, but this in particular restarts downloading up to three times and then gives the error = -100000, and a pop up message suggest "the file may be corrupted" and instructes me to try it later. I have tried a number of times and the result is the same. Is there a way to report the specific file to Itunes Store?

I tried this:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
While I got genuinely concerend support, I didn't get this issue resolved. I'm noticing that more and more posts are popping up with the same error code so it may be a new issue. Good luck in getting yours fixed!

I am having a problem when I try to select a photo or itunes song in Imovie or other programs. I get a window with grey lettering that says: "Open Itunes to populate this list" or "Open iphoto to see photos from your iPhoto library in this list. I have tried relaunching programs and nothing appears. Seemed to start happening a while back after one of my system upgrades.

After a a lengthy conversation with Apple Tech. ($20), my problem seems to be solves. The Iphoto problem solved by trashing the plist file. The Itunes was more involved. We had to create a new Itunes folder and import the files into the new folder; and then import the playlists.

I am receiving the error code (-50) when trying to access the itunes store. The original itune songs etc were installed on a win 7 32 bit system and I have now moved to a win 7 64 bit system (same PC) and have copied the folder across. Has the switch from 32 to 64 bit caused the problem? Is this why I get the error code? I can, however, access the itunes store to view my account. Any ideas please?

ITunes song downloading error - may be corrupt?

I just recently downloaded 3 songs, 2 of them have gotten the message, this file may be corrupted try again later. I've tried downloading those songs about 5 times each, does anyone know the answer to this?

I'm having the same error but only one a few of the downloads. I am downloading many things at the same time and only one or 2 of the tracks are giving me this "stopped (err = 8003)".
Thus I assume its a server side (iTunes store) problem. Probably if I hit the gray arrow on the right to try the download again in the future, it will come through. Now I'm getting notifiers that iTunes is unable to check for purchases. Either the iTunes store severs are having problems for my ISP is.
My suggestion to people having this problem is wait a while and try the download again (see below), particularly if you've successfully download purchases in the past. That approach is partially working for me now. A few hours ago all of the downloads stopped. Now I've gotten a few more before the errors are popping up again. Even if this is your first attempt, if you're at home, i.e., not behind a corporate firewall save yourself the hassle of reconfiguring your home network (plugging directly into your modem or disabling your router's firewall) and just try again later.
In another forum I found a user ranting that he was buying the song/movie/whatever multiple times. In response to that: When you get one of these downloading errors you do not have to buy anything again. In left panel of iTunes, under the "STORE" heading click "Downloads". This will show you all the downloads pending and in progress. If any of them have problems you can use the "Resume All" button at the bottom to try them all again. Click the gray arrow circling back on itself at the right hand side of each item to restart the download of an individual item.
Hope this helps

TS1424 error-100000 when downloading song

I bought an album on pre-order in the iTunes store. When I went to download it this morning I got every song except 1. It gave an error, error-100000, it states, "This file seems to be corrupted. Try redownloading". I did and I keep getting that error. The tech support phone number is rediculous and won't give me any information other than the website.

Hi AlfieEdwards18,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You should be able to download the album using one of these methods:
