On a Mac, receiving the -9812 error message when using iTunes

I have a friend with an iMac that is running OS 10.5.7 and iTunes 8.2 (23). When she tries to either order a song, select the Account link or the Buy iTunes Gifts link an error message "-9812 there is a problem with the iTunes store, please check back later." appears on screen. Another Mac (Mac mini) on the network has no problems connecting and purchasing music via iTunes. There are no firewalls setup on the machine that is having issues. The system firewall is setup to allow iTunes incoming connections.
Thanks for your help,
David

If you're sending as SMS (green bubble) then this is a carrier issue and not an issues with your phone.
To text internationally, you nearly always need to include the country code before the rest of the phone number. If you are doing so and still have issues, contact your carrier.

  • I bought a mac companion for my desktop mac running os x but received the following error message when I tried to install the quikprotect software download:  "power pc no longer supported."  I did not read that anywhere when investigating.  What gives?

    PPC, also known as PowerPC has not existed on Macs since the beginning of 2006.  Apple made a bridge software and included it with Mac OSes until 10.6.8 known as Rosetta that would allow you to run software written for the PowerPC Macs.  10.7 and later can't run that bridge software.  You have one of several options:
    Install 10.6 retail on a USB Flash drive, and run that application while booted from there.
    Find an update designed for 10.7 or later of the software. 
    Find a combination of Virtualbox or Paralllels that can legally run a version of 10.6 side by side with your 10.7 software.
    Run Windows on your Mac with Virtualbox or use CrossOver that requires no Windows to run a Windows version of your application.
    Your Mac is an iMac Intel.   I will ask a moderator redirect your thread to the 10.7 forum, and no action is needed on your part.

  • I am receiving the following error message when deleting email messages

    I am a new Apple Mac user and aside from converting me from the other useless PC operating system, I am still learning my way around MAC OS X Mavericks.
    I am receiving the following error message when trying to delete an email message.
    The Message "XXX XXXXXX XXXX XXXX by XXXXX XXXXXXX" could not be moved to the mailbox 'Trash" - veyron007(outlook)"
    The IMAP command "UID COPY" (to deleted) failed for the mailbox "INBOX" with server error : Error 9.
    Please try again later.
    The error message above is exactly as it appears in the error box.
    Does anybody know why I am receiving this message?
    Does anybody know the correct procudure for loading email accounts with (OUTLOOK, OPTUSNET, etc)
    Do I use IMAP or POP3 for OUTLOOK?
    I look forward to receiving a reply.
    Thanks

    Having SSL turned on is supposed to be a lot safer (some require it), I wouldn't want a connection without.
    SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer and using it means your connection to the server is encrypted.
    Especially when using wifi your connection is prone to eavesdropping, I do not use wifi.
    You can set a mail program like OSX's Mail.app to keep the POP mail on the server, but IMAP is my weapon of choice.
    IMAP and POP3 are protocols. Mail.app (or Mail) is a client.
    For the difference between POP and IMAP, look here:

  • I receive the follwing error message when trying to open my ipod touch/itunes "the itunes libary.itlfile is lockedon  a lockdisk or you do not have write permission on this file. How do I resolve this problem?

    I receive the follwing error message when trying to open my ipod touch/itunes "the itunes libary.itlfile is lockedon  a lockdisk or you do not have write permission on this file. How do I resolve this problem?

    Repair iTunes Security Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Securitytab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
    If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
    Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
    If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
    The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.

    tunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iphone. an unknown error occurred (1635) 
    any ideas? thx

    I get the same error (although in Dutch ;-)).
    It also says something like (I'm translating): "Make sure your network settings are correct and your networkconnection is active or try again later." Is there a way to find out these "correct networksettings"?
    I now get it for a week, eacht time I connect my iPhone to itunes...

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    This is a shot in the dark, but try this:

  • I receive the following error message when trying to install QuickTime for Windows "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."

    I recieve the following error message when trying to install Quicktime for Windows "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."  I just trying to get the latest version of iTunes.  Thanks

    "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • What action can I take to eliminate the following error message when launching iTunes?

    Since the iTunes upgrade last week I persistently get the following message when launching iTunes. "You are signed in with a different Apple ID than previously used with Podcasts. Do you want to sync these podcast subscriptions and stations with ------------ "
    I only have one Apple ID of which I am aware. I changed the password just before the update, after receiving an email advising access from a device that I did not recognise.
    The error message goes on to refer to a Windows XP, desktop system as the previous platform for this synchronisation. I have been relying upon the old MacBook Pro since March, when iTunes on the Desktop crashed. I gave up trying reinstallation etc. on the desktop as nothing appeared to resolve the problem. I have "uninstalled" the application in Windows but lack the necessary skills to remove all traces. I still get error messages about iTunes when opening Windows XP but there is no evidence of application elements on the Hard Drive / System that I am able to recognise.
    iTunes appears to lack a process for updating to recognise that the current platform should be the default.

    Try signing out of iTunes, then back in again. This worked for me and a few others. To sign out, in the iTunes menu bar, click "Store" > "Sign Out".
