Podcast download error=9006

Hi there,
I'm trying to download podcast files which are suddenly all ending in an error message err=9006.
The files are about 230MB large and when the file reaches 200-210 MB the error occurs.
Downloading is done through an iMac. I checked Apple support but only found iOS suggestions.
Any ideas what could be the case??
Cheers

Ok i think it is fixed!
i uninstalled my NOD32 virusscan. Windows Defender i disabled completly and windows firewall i set back to std settings.
This all together made it work! I don't know why cause i disabled virusscan and firewall but didn't work. When i put the firewall back on the problem was back. Then changed it to the std settings and now it can stay on!
I don't understand but it worked!

Download error 9006, internet intermittent.

download error 9006. internet intermittent. Tthis is normal for where we live, it just drops for a second and everytime it drops you have to start over with the download, is there a way to pickup where it dropped off?

traffic shaping prioritises "core" services, so web browsing and email are not affected.
P2P traffic and video sharing/downloading are the services that are often throttled (sometimes to the point where it's not usable).
all ISPs do this (even the ones that say they don't).
Sky's broadband services all do this expect for the 16MB Max LLU package which has no throttling or download limits (the 8MB services has shaping during peak times and a 40GB a month usage limit).
apple have no control over this and will give an error message that is relevant to the problem in question (ie problem downloading the file). it has no control over what throttling an ISP is doing and is unable to tell if throttling is the issue or not.

Download error 9006

hi.
i was hoping someone might have some suggestions for a cure for this.
trying to rent a film, all fine and good. entered itunes account etc. but when i come to download i get an error. and when i goto the general/download menu. it repeatedly immediately comes up with "download error 9006".
i've tried switching it off and on again.
the wireless connection seems good. its managed to sync a few new photo's and home vid's from my pc just fine, and has performed a network connection test.
nothing seems to make any difference. and can't find anything sensible on the apple site.
its a 140gb model running software version 2.3.1 if this makes any difference.
thanks
alistair.

TS3694 Need help for ipad 3 download error 9006

Have downloaded Itunes app and iphone5 IOS 7 successfully.
Have installed IOS7 on Iphone 5 it works great.
After Iphone successful install I moved to my Ipad 3.
I get download error 9006 when connecting Ipad 3 in middle of the download.
I have rebooted both Windows7 and Ipad3.
I have tried 3 times. I get the error.

Launch iTunes on your computer and see if you have available downloads. After you open iTunes, click on the apps tab on the left side under the Library heading. You will see a window with all of the apps that you have purchased. If there is a number next to the word apps - say the number 2 - that means you have available downloads. Look in the bottom right corner of the iTunes window and there should be a message sating 2 downloads available. Click on that to get to the next window and you may be able to finish downloading the stuck apps in there.
Do this first and then worry about deleting the apps from the iPad. I want you to see if you can finish downloading them in iTunes on your computer - then sync - then delete.
This is step one.

Podcast Download Error -39

This has happened to me three times now. When I am in the middle of downloading a podcast, my computer has either frozen or lost internet connection, so the podcast download gets interrupted. Once I restart, or reconnect to the internet, and go back to the list of podcasts, the one I was downloading is grayed out. I push the "Get" button next it and I get this error message: 'There was a problem downloading (said podcast). An unknown error occurred (-39). Please check that the URL is correct and the connection to the network is active and try again.' I have tried resubscribing to the podcast and even reinstalling iTunes. I didn't know if maybe there was a partial file saved somewhere that is making iTunes think there's still a problem. I don't know where to look for that though. Anyone else had this problem before or know what I should do to fix it??

Okay, I had the exact same problem. I restarted by computer during the middle of a podcast download because my computer froze. In order to fix this, (I'm using a windows XP now):
1. Go to the start menu.
2. Click on search.
3. On the left menu, click on all files and folders.
4. Type the episode name of the podcast.
5. Results should come up.
6. Click on the folder that is named after the podcast episode.
7. Delete the two files located in the folder. (2 in my case, they were named download and something else I can't remember)
8. Retry your download.
9. There you go, you got your podcast!

Podcast Download Error, Tap to retry @ wifi, Ios 8.2, Iphone 5s

Hi all,
I'm Iphone 5s user, with IOS 8.2.
No files are able to be downloaded nor played from Podcast with wifi. When I turn on the LTE, and then it starts to download, which is weird. The error message appears under wifi environment, like this, "Download Error. Tap to retry".
So, it seems the PodCast won't let me download anything with wifi, but only with LTE. Is it a problem what others are struggling with? Would there be any solution for this?

I am googling this like mad with no succinct fix or answer. Do you think apple can do something server side to permanently delete these five songs from the download queue. They must be the cause for the phone always asking for my apple id on every restart. Signing in makes them
vanish but as I mentioned if I don't sign in when it prompts me in restart they remain in the queue. It's really annoying. I
hope a future 8.0.1 update may reset this but I can't be certain it will. I am sure erase all settings and restoring backup may eradicate this too but this a long and painful option. I am sure the problem started with a restore anyway as post ios 8 I fid restore from
backup after a sync mess up. The process took forever and I tevkon certain songs got stuck during restore. I wish it didn't try and download them
sll back in at once. I did cancel the restore after a long while as it was quicker to individually download songs at my own leisure. I'd like to avoid trying another restore as it will be a huge data usage and lengthy process just to try and remove this issur

Movie won't download, error 9006

Hi! I recently attempted to download 6 movies at one time. All were successful except for the last one, which will start to download and then say error 9006, check for purchases. I check for purchases and the same thing happens. This also happens when I click the resume download button. Can anyone help me to fix this problem, so that I can download the movie? Thanks!

everything and anything i tried wouldn't work until today when i wasn't even trying here's how you fix it.
With your internet connected go to tools
-go all the way down to internet options
-click on the security tab-go to custom level
there will be a list there enable anything that has to do with downloading
-right below the list it says reset custom settings
-in the drop down menu change it to Medium-low
then click reset. When you are done click on apply, this might take a miute. When it is done. Click Ok
If this doesn't work you can email me at [email protected]
-Hope it helps

Apple tv download error 9006

My apple tv ( first generation) when downloading a movie I get an error 9006. What is wrong and how do I fix it?
Chuck

I think you've linked to the wrong thread.
Generally speaking its a network issue when downloads fail to start or complete, in many but not all cases a restart is enough to get things working again.

2.2 Podcast download: errors on 2/3 podcasts I try to download

Anyone else seen this?
I tried to download a podcast (Stack Overflow podcast) through the iTunes Store on my iPhone and it gave me a Download Error right away.
I tried to download another one (Ruby on Rails podcast) and it downloaded the whole file (progress bar got to 100%) and then gave another download error.
I tried some of random podcasts and managed to download some other ones. But I'd quite like to have these.
Any thoughts?
Dan

My podcasts download just fine, however they seem to be in the wrong format. Some enhanced audio files are playing as videos. I've reported the problem to the iTunes store (see pasted below), but I wanted to flag it to see if others are having the same problem:
With the most recent iPhone update (2.2), it's great having the ability to download podcasts. However, playback of enhanced audio podcasts has been causing problems. For some enhanced podcasts, they play back as they used to, providing access to chapter markers in the top right corner, and allowing the screen to be turned off while still playing the audio. Other enhanced podcasts now seem to show up as videos, with a small tv screen icon showing up next to the episode name, the chapter markers accessible via a button at the bottom of the screen, and I am unable to play back the audio show with the screen off (much as most of the rest of the videos work). I haven't yet been able to find a difference between these enhanced audio files, all seem to be file format .m4a, some encoded with Garage Band, some encoded with Podcast Maker.
Some examples:
This Week in Media 117 (shows up as video)
gdgt 013 (shows up as video)
The Lost Podcast with Jay and Jack AAC Ep. 3.37 (shows up as video)
MacCast eMacCast 2008.12.01 (shows up as enhanced audio)
This change started with iPhone software update 2.2, and has unfortunately rendered many of my podcasts useless unless I keep the screen active.
Additionally, another related change that was made with iPhone software update 2.0, was that, much like on the iPods, video podcasts could be viewed as a video, or listened to as only audio. On iPhone software version 1.1.4 and earlier, you had the choice to listen to a video podcast (which allowed you to turn the screen off) when accessing the podcast in the podcast section of the player, or as a video with the screen when accessing all videos in the player. Since 2.0, all video podcasts accessed from the podcast section play as videos. I understand the reasoning for this, as it may seem more straight forward to some users, but it has decreased the functionality of the player app. It'd be great if functionality were restored via a system preferences option to enable listening-only to video podcasts.
One other person has found the problem here as well:

Anyone else experiencing this? Might be similarly tied to these podcasting errors?

HT3281 Podcast download error - How do I delete it from itunes and my iphone?

I tried to download a podcast directly on my iphone. I got an error but later was able to download it through Itunes on my laptop so I don't want it anymore. Now the podcast still won't download on my iphone and continues to say download error in itunes on my iphone. The podcast episode shows up on my iphone, but it says the time is 0:00 and it won't let me swipe to delete it. How can I remove it?

Hey Bret,
I had the same problem and found that if I went to the iTunes app (as opposed to the Music app) and selected "More" and then "Downloads", I could swipe from right to left on the specific podcast that wouldn't download, which would cause the "Delete" button to be revealed, and then delete it. After deleting the podcast there, I opened the "Music" app and found that it had been deleted from there also. Hope this helps.
Incidentally, I'm still unable to download certain podcasts directly to my iPhone.

Why constant Podcast download errors?

Constantly get "download error, tap to retry". This especially true for news and financial programs..... So info is there but not able to be downloaded. I can delete the pending file, but that doesn't get the info downloaded. Is this issue with my iPad or Apple? Also, it often seems news programs are not available for days.....again is this Apple or networks?

How do I solve for podcast download error -50 on iTunes 8?

I've recently set up my work computer with iTunes, as I now have an iPhone. In trying to download any free NPR podcasts (e.g., Fresh Air), I can subscribe to it but when I try to download, the orange spinning circle shows very briefly, then I get a grey exclamation point. Clicking on the "!" reveals error message: There was a problem downloading "Podcast name". An unknown error occurred (-50). Please check that the URL is correct and that the connection to the network is active and try again.
I'm using a Dell with Windows XP Pro Server Pack 2, with the iTunes 8.0.1. At home, I also have a Dell but with an earlier version of iTunes, and I'm not getting the error.
I have already tried deleting the podcasts from my library (including the cache), and resubscribing. I've tried to manually add the podcasts using the URL (through iTunes).
Any guidance would be very appreciated. I'm feeling lost with out my morning podcasts!

Any solutions to this problem? It always happens to "Car Talk" and "Wait, Wait... Don't Tell Me".

While the following relates to videos, it usually rings true for Podcasts too:
