Keep getting Error -37 when I try to download music

I recently purchased a $15 dollar iTunes card at Sam Goody, and I put it on my iTunes account and when I tried to buy songs, the song would be in my pending downloads but I'm unable to download it fully because everytime I try I get an error message saying that the file name is too long or invalid. I sent a message to support about this and they said to upgrade my iTunes software to iTunes 7.0 and to turn off my firewall. I did this, and I still get the same error message, -37. What does this mean and how can I fix it?

Also try turning off any anti-virus or web accelerators you have running. Firewalls aren't the only things that can cause errors. Disconnecting your router (if you have one) and connecting directly to your broadband modem may help as well. Give it a go. No harm in trying.

  • I keep getting error 8003 when I try to download tv shows on itunes...how do I solve it?

    Help...I keep getting Error 8003 when I try to download TV shows I've bought on itunes. It says to check I have an active connection. I do! I can watch iView and SBS on demand with no problems. I had the connection checked by a technician.
    What can I do?

    Error 8003 is described here.  The article is a bit dated, but I suspect the writeup is still valid.

  • I keep getting error (-9808) when I try to download a podcast or song

    I keep getting error (-9808) when I try to download a podcast or song. I have searched the discussions & help section, but cannot find this error code anywhere. How do I fix this? Thanks. Jeff

    OK, you turned off your filewall, but did you disable Norton Internet Security completely? For some issues just disabling the firewall is not enough. I once had a connection problem with Gracenote that went away when NIS was disabled, but turning off every element of NIS individually and together did not work.
    Some people have found adding the following to trusted domains helped:
    phobos.apple.com
    phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net

    Occasionally flushing the DNS Resolver cache helps:

    Are you able to connect to the store normally with just downloading affected, or is there a general store connection problem?
    The other thing is have you run your network diagnostics from the iTunes Help menu? Posting the result might help.

  • I keep getting error messages when I try to download iTunes

    I have had iTunes on my computer for years.  With the latest software update, iTunes will no longer work on my computer.  I cannot get it to open.  I have uninstalled and tried to re-install.  I keep getting the error message that Apple Mobile Device is not working.  iTunes will not even open.  I have tried to re-install several times. 
    My computer still uses Vista OS, I know it's a dinosaur, but we really only use the PC to surf the internet, print a few documents here and there and to sync with iTunes.
    I am restarting each time I've unistalled and then tried to re-install again.
    Any advice?

    I've disabled my firewall...I've done everything I've read about in the forums...Please help !!

    I copied this from a thread the other day and this poster claimed that this worked for him...
    This actually has a very simple fix, that has worked all the times I have seen it.   Simple go to Settings > Safari >  Then reset the cookies, Reset the Cache, and Reset the History.  Now turn the iPad off and then on again.  It should work fine now.

  • I keep getting error 1603 when I try to restore my iPod why?

    I keep getting error 1603 when I try to restore my iPod why?

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    Error 1603
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
