Itunes version 10.5 error message (-50)

I am getting an error message that says my itunes library cannot be saved . the error code is (-50). I recently updated to version 10.5. I tryed downloading a CD which workied fine, but kept getting message everytime a track downloaded. I tried playing the track after it was done, and it played fine. I logged out of itunes and then went back in, and could not find the new CD in my libaray. I am assuming it was saved to my external hard drive, but I cannot get rid of the error message. What should I do?

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Restart the programme all should be well
In case that your OS is (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Now paste it in the folder  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

    Hello lenmin,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To help resolve this issue where you're repeatedly prompted to authorize with your Apple ID in iTunes when syncing, please follow the directions in the article below.

    got notification that new Itunes version is available, once i installed it I'm no longer able to open Itunes, I get the error message, Not installed properly. Reinstall itunes. Error 7(Windows error127), I tried repairing itunes, Apple Aplication support, apple mobile device support, bonjour and I even uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and still problem exist, any solution?
    I have windows 8

    I got this message today too. I understand that my music is stored on my computer, however I want to be certain that if I re-install iTunes, it won't erase my library....playlists, playcounts, checked songs, etc.

  • When i try to download the new version of iTunes, I get an error message saying the download was for 32bit and I need the 64bit. How do i download 64bit?!?!

    When i try to download the new version of iTunes, I get an error message saying the download was for 32bit and I need the 64bit. How do i download 64bit?!?!

    Which I get. But clicking on that link you provided does not give you the option of choosing between 32 and 64 bit installers.
    Yeah, that was certainly a 32-bit installer file being referred to in the other message, too. (The 64-bit installer file is called iTunes64Setup.exe.)
    Just in case it's an issue with your normal browser not working properly with the system-detection equipment on the page (there's a javascript control that checks for operating system specifics, and is supposed to deliver the correct Mac or Windows installers), let's try a different web browser for the download. If you use Firefox instead of IE (or vice versa), do you get offered an iTunes64Setup.exe instead of an iTunesSetup.exe?

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • I can't update itunes. I get error message can't find "itunes.msi". What can I do?

    What can I do to download updated itunes. I get error message can't locate "itunes.msi." folder.

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I plug my ipod into my computer itunes pops up with error message "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" suggests I unplug and try again or uninstall itunes and reinstall nothing works. What should i do?

    I plug my ipod into my computer itunes pops up with error message "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" suggests I unplug and try again or uninstall itunes and reinstall nothing works. What should i do?

    summarizing:
    iPod nano (what version iOS BEFORE update?)
    downloaded music
    updated iPod to iOS 8.1.2
    Windows 7 PC
    plug-in iPod to PC
    error message from iTunes on the PC "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" ⬅[quoted from your original post] (+ suggested troubleshooting steps)
    un-plug > re-plug iPod (how many times?)
    iTunes un-installed from PC (?)
    iTunes RE-installed to PC (?)
    error message repeats(?)
    searched "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" site:support.apple.com with ZERO results - pretty strange that the support site wouldn;t know an iTunes generated error message (?)  EDIT - had an "aha! moment when using a fresh Google search page and 'suggested' CANNOT
    then "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" site:discussions.apple.com had ONE result = Can't connect to iTunes with ipod touch (-50 error) - NO REPLIES
    CANNOT instead of can't [ tsk tsk ]
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    follow all the instructions in order and let us know

  • When I tried to update Itunes I got an error message telling me to reinstall.  When I try to reinstall I get a message "Apple Mobile Devide failed to start.  Verify you have sufficient privliges to start syem services"  Can anyone help here?

    When I tried to update Itunes I got an error message telling me to reinstall.  When I try to reinstall I get a message "Apple Mobile Devide failed to start.  Verify you have sufficient privliges to start syem services"  I'm not sure what this means, can anyone help here?  Thanks,

    I tried the temp fix you mentioned, it didn't work.  I could not delete all of the old itunes files, the uninstallers would crash half way through and if I tried to manually delete anything it also gave me an error, so reinstalling the older version would not work. 
    Frankly, this whole thing has got me ****** off.  judging by the amount of complaints here, there must be a lot of people having this problem, yet Apple has let it go on for almost 2 weeks.  What kind of inept coders are they employing if they can let an update that completely frags their software get through QA.
    Does anyone know of any programs that will play itunes music files?  I am just about done dealing with iTunes, but I've got a ton of music that I don't want to have to purchase all over again.

  • Trying to update to iTunes...  Error Messages

    When attempting to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes, I encounter this error message: Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\etc\zoneinfo\Antarctica\Casey. Verify you hvae access to that directory.
    Does anyone else get this? Any ideas how to remedy?
    At this time, I have no iTunes access. I tried to uninstall and install, but still not working.
    thanks much!

  • When i install or reinstall the new itunes i get an error message that says:

    when i install or reinstall the new itunes i get an error message that says:
    apple application support was no found.
    apple application support is required to run ituneshelper. please uninstall itunes, then install itunes again.
    error 2
    thats all it says ive tried to reinstall uninstall ive done all that and it wont work. i use windows 7
    please help me!!

    Yeah, this is absolutely ********. I have t5he same message, only i just started getting it when my Iphone4 went in to recovery mode.
    I uninstalled itunes, downloaded the lates itunes just now, reinstalled it and got the same message.
    So, i did some more google research, and saw a recommendation that rather than installing itunes, one should unpack it with win zip, or win rar.
    I did this, and even though I just downloaded the apple software today, when i try installing application support, i gwt a message saying A LATER VERSION OF APPLE APPLICATION SUPPORT IS ALREADY INSTALLED.. go figure! Du-uh!
    So, i uninstalled the new itunes, went - control panel-programs- and dis a search for apple application support, found it and deleted it too.
    Resinstalled itunes and again the same message.
    unistalled everything again, tried installing application support first, then itunes, and now I get a message saying ITUNES WAS NOT ISNATLLED CORRECTLY!
    I am so annoyed right now, that if my puter was a person, I would be in Jail!
    lol

  • I tried to install the new iTunes & I get an error message

    I tried to install the new iTunes & i got an error message & i have already deleted all apple related things & reinstalled them. Now a message that says something about verify my apple mobile device keeps coming up & i have no idea how to fix this problem.

    ... not likely to be a LSP thing, then.
    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
