There was a problem downloading ... An unknown error has occured -42018...

Dear all,
After upgrading to i-tunes 7 I'm not able anymore to download music. If I run diagnostics everything seems fine.

However downloading the songs I bought doesn't work.
Following error:
"There was a problem downloading "...". An unknown error has occured (-42018). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again."
But my network is active and the diagnostics turn out OK. Please help me out!! I have songs to be downloaded that I have already payed for.

This didn't work for me, but to any who may be interested, I also was experiencing unknown error -42018 when attempting to download purchased music. Additionally, I was stuck in an endless authorization loop when attempting to play previously purchaed music. All this started when I installed the latest iTunes software 7.0.2. But I managed to fix the problem on my machine.
I run windows XP Pro, and unlike the majority of users I actually set it up correctly with a dedicated administrator account, and regular user accounts instead of just running as admin all the time. For me, that was the cause of the problem.
The new version of iTunes software required FULL CONTROL privilages on the iTunes and iPod install directories for all user accounts that were using the program. (Previous versions worked fine, so this is a new thing.) Once I provided those permissions, iTunes worked correctly. Follow this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304040 for information on how to provide FULL CONTROL to every user account.
I hope you all find this helpful in solving your problem.
Good Luck,
Bill

TS3297 problem downloading newly purchased music, "an unknown error occurred (8003") help

Doublechecking. Have you tried the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document?

Possible fix for "problem downloading the IPOD software.." error

I have a click wheel IPOD and after dropping it was forced to restore to factory setting. When attempting to restore, Itunes nor my computer recognized my IPOD and when it finally did I got the message
"These was a problem downloading the Ipod software for the Ipod "Ipod." The requested resource was not found."
I did the 5 steps repeatedly over 2 days with no luck then today I combined advice from a bunch of postings and it worked!
Here's what worked:
1)Bought a new USB 2.0 connect cable.
2)Deleted the folder containing the firmware files: see
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304309
3)Delete Ipod updater
4)Restarted computer
5)Download updated Itunes
http://www.apple.com/ipod/start/
When I ran the exe file it asked if I wanted to "repair" or "reinstall" I choose "repair".
5)Reset ipod
6)Opened itunes, connected ipod, it took about 10 minutes for itunes to sync with the ipod.
7)Choose restore.
After that it went as normal.
Cheers

Is this any helps?

There was a problem downloading [Movie Title]. An unknown error occurred. (-50)

Just got LOTR: Trilogy Extended Editions on Bluray for Christmas and went to redeem the Digital Copies in the iTunes store. Codes worked fine, they have been successfully redeemed.
Only problem is the movies will not physically download to my harddrive and I get this error.
I have done the recommendations and step-by-step guides on this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1583 many many times but to no avail.
I've heard that sometimes Digital Copies require you to have the DVD or Bluray in your DVD or Bluray drive before they will download but if this is the case I haven't once been prompted to insert any such disc.

err = -50 when downloading from store - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3697501 - delete incomplete downloads from downloads folder as per http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
iTunes Store: "Error (-50)" when downloading purchased content - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1583

Problem downloading itunes due to mobile device error

I had the msvcr80.dll problem I see a lot are having. I removed iTunes and all the programs, then tried to download iTunes and get an error message relating to the apple mobile device and would not download Windows 7 operating system.. Any advice out there?

Try the following user tip:
Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates

"There was a problem downloading [media title]. An unknown error occurred (-199)."

A few days ago, i noticed that my subscribed podcasts were not downloading. The above error message was returned instead. I could find no reference to a Code 199 online and hoped that the issue was temporary. It seems that it may not be.
I've tried:
- restarting the computer
- logging out and back into my iTunes account
- removing and re-subscribing to a particular podcast
- purchasing an app from the app store (this works fine)
- purchasing a song from iTunes (this returns the same error code on the computer, but downloads and plays on my iPhone)
- following the steps from this article -- http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297 -- i turned off the firewall
- also, i deleted the NetworkInterfaces.plist file and restarted my computer
- checked to see if media will play through itunes from the external drive where all my iTunes media is stored (OK)
- connecting through my iPhone's 3G connection, rather than through my Time Capsule / cable modem
I cannot recall anything that was new or changed when this issue began. I typically refresh my podcasts once every day or two.
I'm using a MacBook with OS X 10.7.5 and iTunes 11.1.5.
I'm looking forward to suggestions from the community.
Thank you very much.
Bill.

Two more "clues":
Occasionally, after an attempt to refresh my podcasts, iTunes will crash. A long report is displayed, but i think maybe the following excerpt may mean something to someone here:
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x0000000000000955
And the second thing is that i created a new user account and tried to download a podcast, and it worked fine, synced to my iPod Nano properly.
I get the feeling that a solution is near ... but it's beyond my grasp.
Please help.
Thank you.

Im having a problem downloading itune 10.5 and an error message comes up saying "There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." what do I do? I need to download this otherwise I cant connect my ipod touch to itunes.

Try postings/searching in the iTunes forum since you have an iTunes problem not an iPod problem. Ther have been recent posts with your problem so you should be able to find an solution.

"There was a problem downloading the software fot the iphone. The network connection timed out."

what to do? please help....

Stop with the silly and pointless fonts.
A simple search of the forums for the actual error would have revealed the resolution.
Temporarily disable all security software on the computer.

Ipad ios 4.2 update error - "there was a problem downloading the software..

Hi All -
Super excited to get 4.2.1 up and running. I had the buggy beta of 4.2 running on my iPad but now when I try to restore my iPad to get the most recent version of 4.2.1 running, I get this error:
"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPad. The requested resource was not found.
I've restarted iTunes and the computer and I'm still getting the same error. I've looked for the .ipsw file online but can't seem to find it anywhere. It's not an Apple's Support/Downloads section either.
Anyone know where to download the new update? I'm dying without Airplay, Airprint and so on not working here.
Thanks!
CH

Hi,
this should have been addressed by Apple I guess, but luckily we found out the solution in the company. Yesterday all our iPads (with 4.2 beta iOS for dev) stopped working, displayed the Connect to iTunes scrren and throw errors when trying to sync like 'The requested resource was not found' (when tried to Restore) and Error Code: 0xE800005D (when iTunes first just tried to reinstall apps).
Here is what we did to reanimate all four iPads in the company:
First you need to enter Recovery mode with the iPad, then recover the iOS software (probably the latest). Here is how to do it:
1) Fire up iTunes on your computer, and plug in the USB cable in the computer, but not in the iPad!
2) Do a hard reset, ie. press and hold down Sleep/Wake and Home buttons simultaneously, don't bother with the switch off prompt, just keep pushing the buttons.
3) When the screen goes blank, but before the Apple logo comes up, release the Sleep/Wake button and quickly plug in the USB into the iPad too. Keep pushing the Home button, until the Recovery mode dialog in iTunes comes up.
4) Act according to the prompts, and wait for the image to download and extract (can be 10-15 minutes depending on your internet connection, the image is some 550Mb).
That's it, you can safely restore your apps and other content to your recovered iPad.
Hope this helps,
David
