My purchased songs won't download, connection timed out (error -3259)

Every time i purchase a song it says for example: There was a problem downloading “It's Not My Time / It's Not My Time - Single / 3 Doors Down”.
The network connection timed out. It says error -3259. This is very irritating SOMEONE HELP ME?!?!?!?!? PLEASE

several issues were related to poor band width. Even though my cable dsl was considered high speed, I needed to upgrade to the next level up of high speed internet with my ISP to get full band width. As soon as this change took place, all my downloading issues were resolved. It had nothing to do with the itunes software.

Network connection timed out (Error -3259)

I've been REPEATEDLY getting "Network connection timed out (Error -3259) for two specific TV shows I'm trying to download. Other shows and songs are downloading just fine, which indicates there is nothing wrong with the network.
I have already tried deleting the temporary files from the DOWNLOADS folder, but no luck.
I have also tried restarting these two epispodes DOZENS of times.
I've heard from various web sites that Itunes will not work properly with internet service from Time Warner. Is this true? I have no way to change my ISP as TW is all that's available to me.
Since the series is sequential, I want my money back for all the episodes after the first one I can't download, or to make alternate arrangements to FTP the files directly rather than using the Itunes Store. How do I go about doing this?

Here is apple article on this error. Basically, disable your firewall and other security software.

Can't complete song download: "Network Connection timed out Error=-3259"

Songs recorded as purchased but when downloading I receive this error message: "Network Connection timed out err=-3259"....this is a new laptop and the internet connection seems to be working but not sure why I can't complete my song download. Please help!
Thanks!

I too am having the same problem. New computer (Dell Inspiron E1505) and new Nano. I've disabled my firewall access, allowed for full access for iTunes, I remain connected to the internet, I remain connected to iTuens store (I can listen to music, see my account info and even see the purchased songs), but I can't download my songs without getting the error 3259 message network connection timed out.
I contacted Apple/iTunes; they haven't found a solution other than disabling my firewalls, which as I've said I've already done.
I contacted my ISP and they thought it was a version problem. They suggested that I try to download iTunes version 6, but that hasn't worked either. I just hope someone has a solution. I'm about to take back my ipod and forget the whole thing. Good luck to you and wish me luck!

Connection timed out - error 3259

I have run the diagnostics test and everything seems fine. I have read as many help articles as I could find relating to download problems and have follows firewall steps, etc.
I purchased a song from itunes 7.0.2 with my new ipod nano. It would not download, showing: Connection timed out. I have been working on this for a week now. All my other browsers work, my podcast downloads come out fine, but I cannot download purchased music from itunes.
I have also reinstalled itunes, checked all my internet connections, and cleared cache (although I could not find any to clear when it came to this song, as one of the help articles mentioned).
If there are any suggestions out there, I will gladly follow them.
And if anyone out there has overcome this problem, I would like to hear about it. I tried searching the support site for this error number and did not come up with anything.
My nano is a 2 gig, though I do not know how to tell if it is a first or second generation and if that makes a difference or not. I got it for Christmas.
Thanks

I get a connection timed out error when trying to connect to the itunes store, if I have pending downloads they show up and I can download, also I was able to access my account, yet I can't access other parts of the store, I am in greece on a macbook pro

I am from the states and am in Greece on vacation. I have a good wifi connection yet keep getting a connection timed out error when I try to access the itunes store. It is funny because pending downloads show up in the cue, and they download no problem. I can also open my account. When I try to go the the movies or music section of the stor though it just times out. I tried updating to the latest itunes software and restarting, also I checked all the proxy boxes in the network section of the settings then unchecked them all and restarted and it keeps doing the same thing. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Welcome to AD!
There's been plenty of posts about Norton & the removal tool here. Unfortunately many folks seem to not even know it comes pre-installed on most PCs! Even a trial version, never used or long since expired can cause problems - and not just with iTunes.
Anyone with a Dell, HP, Gateway EEE PC, Asus ..... what Windows PC manufacturer does NOT have this junk software pre-installed?
Almost all of them have made deals with Symantec to pre-install it.
Horrible, horrible software.
Anyway, glad you finally solved your problem.

Samba and fusesmb: "connection timed out" error

Hello to everyone!
I'm facing a weird problem here: since a couple of days I cannot use fusesmb anymore: I can still "see" the SMB network shares that are present on my LAN, but as soon as I try to enter one of those I get a "connection timed out" error.
First of all I tried to reinstall fusesmb, to no avail. Then I tried to use smbclient directly:
[tudhalyas@paranor ~]$ smbclient -L <my_windows_box_IP>
This command correctly shows the list of shares that are present on my winXP box, and
[tudhalyas@paranor ~]$ smbclient \\\\<my_windows_box_IP>\\SharedDocs
creating lame upcase table
creating lame lowcase table
Enter tudhalyas's password:
Domain=[WINBOX] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
smb: \>
allows me to go into the "Shared Docs" folder of the said computer. From here I can flawlessly download files from the share.
Reading this thread I thought that samba 3.5.1 could be the culprit, and so I compiled samba 3.4.7 through ABS and then installed it. Sadly, fusesmb still doesn't work. I even tried to use smbnetfs, but again to no avail.
Does anyone of you know what I could do to address this issue? Thanks in advance!

bump... can anybody help me please?

Add-on connection timed out Error

Hi all,
I have created an add on following sdk help. (ie; a blanket project). The add - on installs properly but while runnig it gives connection timed out error. I have found a lot of similar threads in the form. but all of them uses B1DE. And the B1DE is not getting installed properly in my system . the installation of B1DE completes sucessfully but i dont find any SAP templates in my Visual studio 2005. I suppose its a B1DE version problem since while installing it is asking for vsual basic .net 2003 path where as I have oly VS 2005. From where do I get B1DE versionfor VS 2005 ?
Regards,
Priya

Priya,
You download B1DE from the same area as you download the B1DE for VS 2003.

You need to download B1DE for VS 2005.

Connection Timed Out error while saving messages in Solution Database

Dear Experts,
I have configured trex in solution manager..while saving service messages in 'Solution Database' i used to get "page cannot be displayed" now iam getting the fallowing error..please suggest any changes required..
500 Connection timed out
Error: -5
Version: 7000
Component: ICM
Date/Time: Thu May 14 15:11:24 2009
Module: icxxthr.c
Line: 2698
Server: Host_<SID>_<Sys no>

Regards,

Hi Babu,
you might try the following on the server where the problem occurred: call transaction SMICM -> Goto Services -> Select the service you are working with ->
Service Change -> increase value for "Max. Processing Time"
In case your application still times out you should see the changed value displayed.
Sometimes just executing the application again 2-4 times might help, because compiling might happen and is taking some time in the system.
With regards to parameters see also SAP Note [824554|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/824554].

Connection Timed Out error when I try to access Alert Inbox

Hi experts,
I have not been looking at my alert inbox for a while and I suspect it's very full.
When I tried to open the alert inbox from RWB, I encountered the following error:
<b>500 Connection timed out
Error: -5
Version: 7000
Component: ICM
Date/Time: Mon May 07 11:08:51 2007
Module: icxxthr.c
Line: 2646
Server: ootspdbs02_PI1_01
Error Tag: {-}
Detail: Connection to partner timed out after 60s
</b>
All other functions of the RWB is working fine, including Alert Configurations.
I tried restarting the J2EE instance, but it did not help.
I've checked the SICF services, and they are fine.
I suspect the alert inbox is trying to load a huge amount of data, so it is timing out.
How can I adjust the keep_alive_timeout setting in this case?
When I look into RZ11, I am unable to edit this entry.
Please help.
Thanks.
Ron

Hi Ron,
Follow these steps:
1. Try restarting the JAVA Stack.
2. ST22 check out any Dump.
3. In RWB --> Component Monotring --> check the Cache connectivity test...is all are Green ( Glowing )
Check these SAP Notes 750287,900896,768456
If that doesnt work out, check this SAP Note 840849

Require help to solve Connection timed out error while reload initial data

Dear Developers,
I have installed SAP NetWeaver and SAP ME SDK 2.0 on my laptop and working from offshore, the SAP ME WIP and ODS database is situated at onsite. The installation is working fine, however, after developing Activity Hooks, at the step where I need to Reload Initial Data for the Site where I want the Activity to be used I get the below error message:
500 Connection timed out
Error: -5
Version: 7011
Component: ICM
Date/Time: Wed Mar 07 12:37:38 2012
Module: icxxthr.c
Line: 4184
Server: <laptop_hostname>_<SID>_00
Error Tag: {-}
Detail: Connection to partner timed out after 600s
© 2001-2009, SAP AG
How to find out what is causing this error? When I use the hostname of the onsite SAP ME application pointing to the same database, Reload Initial Data works fine. I need to reload initial data from laptop SAP ME application only, beacause the activity hook classes reside on my laptop, before I send the SAPME.sca files for common server build.

Hello,
Please try to increase PROCTIMEOUT ICM parameter for the corresponding server\port. If it does not help, please, check NW default traces for ME errors and share your results with us.
Best regards,
Alex.

Anyone know why my Iphone 4 will not update to the 5.0? It gets to the very end and says network timed out error 3259, Anyone know why my Iphone 4 will not update to the 5.0? It gets to the very end and says network timed out error 3259

Anyone know how to fix this problem..... I am trying to update and download the latest version for my phone and it gets all the way to the end and says network timed out error 3259 or something. I have tried a so many times and get the same answer. I have restarted the computer, internet, etc. NOTHING. HELP!!!

Are you doing this over a wireless network. This happened a long time ago when we had DSL. I got sick of it and went to broadband thru our cable company.
If you are using wireles router, use a cable and connect your computer via the cable to the modem or wireless router if you have a location for the cable upon the wireless router. I think it is a cat 5 cable that connects the computer to your modem or wireless router. This way you Internet should not time out.
I hope this helps you. It is hard to identify the issue not knowing your Internet connect setup. Some modems and wireless routers have more Port options.

I am having alot of problems with itunes, including a "connection timed out" error CONSTANTLY. Any suggestions?

My iTunes has always been a huge pain no matter what ive done. It runs slowly in general, freezes up every now and then, and when trying to restore my iPod touch 4g, i need to download a software update, which is impossible, due to the fact that every time i try i get a "Network connection timed out" message. I have also had the issue of my account locking me out twice now in a very short period of time, and i have no idea why. It says for security reasons, but ive changed passwords and everything.
I would like to know if an update is comming soon to make things smoother, because ive long since lost patience with iTunes.

MusicStore: "network connection timed out" error message

I am very frustrated. Just got an ipod for xmas and i love it. downloaded a bunch of songs and movies.
now, for whatever reason, i get an error message when i try to go to the Music Store: "network connection timed out. make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active and try again.".
Other facts
-i don't have any third party firewall, except the XP one which is turned off
-i have full internet connection (both on my home wifi and when i plug in the lan cable)
-i have erased and reloaded the latest i-tunes 6.0 software
-i have shut down and rebooted my machine at least a thousand times
-i have done the change to the windows "hosts" file as was mentioned by another user.
Can anybody help???
thanks

You will need to restart from the beginning. Try temporarily turning off all your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed and see if that stops the network timeout.
