Keep getting error 4002 when trying to update Genius

I haven't seen anyone write about getting error 4002 when trying to update genius in itunes. I select update genius and it gathers information and sends it to the itunes store I assume. And then waits a few seconds and then I get the following message "Genius results can't be updated right now. An unknown error occurred (4002) Please try again later." I've been getting this message for well over a month and I keep hoping they'll be an update or somehow it will magically be fixed, but nothing has changed. Anyone have any insight on this one?
The current ituned library it 123GB and is stored on external drives. It should also be noted that when I first turned on genius when it was released it went through this whole problem without a hitch. I just can't update Genius with any of the music I've added since then. I can't even get genius to recognize music that I got from the itunes store since I've had the problem.

Be careful - this was a disaster for me. Once I did this, I got a different error - an error 4010 and in trying to recover, caused a lot of library issues that forced me to go to a backup to fix. You'll find a lot of people having the 4010 problem. Basically iTunes Genius is a disaster and Apple isn't fixing it.

Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

HT201210 keep getting error message when trying to update iOS to 5.1.1

I have had no trouble updating the several iPads under my charge at work, however can't update my own. Am using iOS 5.1 currently on original iPad. I go to settings and it looks for any updates available and I click install to 5.1.1 but keep getting error message saying there was an error when trying to update. I am on my home wifi on my iPad. Have done same procedure with about 5 other iPads with no trouble. What can I do?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

Why do I keep getting error message when trying to update iPad with ios7?

Keep getting error message ios7 won't validate? Can I reset iPad and download again? Will I lose data on iPad if reset?

NMAYO,
In your project view can you right click on the chassis in the cRIO and make sure that it is set for Scan Mode and not FPGA mode? Also, In the measurement and automation explorer you can check the cRIO and verify that it has Scan Engine Support installed on it. The tutorial below shows how to reformat a cRIO and install software on it, the later steps on software will allow you to check your cRIO.

I have tried everything! Updating my system, using system restore, turning off all my firewalls, updating all my security programs, uniinstalling iTunes, reinstalling iTunes, googling the answer and I can't seem to find anything to do with this specific error anywhere! What do I do?

I keep getting error 20 when trying to update my apps on my macbook pro

Everytime i try to update my apps its says there is an error (20) I just bought the computer.. Is it because the person before me had them under their itunes?? Its like iphoto and igarage etc.. arent those standard on the computer? Please help.
Thank you.

Hello Jacquimae,
The only thing you can buy legitimately is the computer and the basic discs that are necessary to operate it. All Apple apps over and above this cannot be legally sold on. The machine should have been completely wiped and the original OS re-installed, bringing the machine to its original factory condition. iPhoto and Garage band were part of OS 10.6.8. Snow Leopard.
You must not use the original owner's ID.

Why do i get error 43 when trying to update iphone3

why do i keep getting error 43 when trying to update iphone3? very frustrating please help!

If you back up your device manually before syncing, you can restore it from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
To backup manually do this:
Connect your iPod to your computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your iPod let iTunes erase all media content and restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.

TS3694 getting error 3004 when trying to update to ios7

I keep getting error 3004 when trying to update to ios7

I was trying to update my iphone 5 to IOS7 and couldnt do it for 5 times then I did the following and was able to update it right away
Clearing your DNS cache may resolve the issue and enable you to connect to the iTunes Store.
The easiest way to clear your DNS cache is to shut down your computer completely and then restart. If you can't shut down, you can clear your DNS cache manually.
Click Start and choose Run.
In the dialog that appears, type “cmd” (don’t type the quotes) and click OK.
After the DOS prompt (C:\), type “ipconfig /flushdns” (without the quotes) and press Enter. Make sure you enter a single blank space after “ipconfig.”
Let me know if it solved the issue for you
