These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

    Now it keeps saying that it is restored but there is still no music or video on it. And a new error is coming up that says "We could not complete your iTunes store request.The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

  • Trying to erase hard drive, but get "input/output error". What does this mean? What can I do to erase my hard drive so I can reinstall?

    Hi all,
    My computer a few days ago wouldn't start up, would just stay at the gray loading screen forever. So as a result I tried to reformat the hard drive and reinstall, but I can't reinstall, until I erase the hard drive, but when I try to erase the hard drive it says the erase failed due to an input/output error. What does this mean? What can I do to fix my computer?

    The startup drive is failing, or there is some other internal hardware fault.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
    Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • HT1414 i get an error 9 what does that mean?

    i get an error 9 what does that mean?

    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • HT1751 On an old Mac I got this message while trying to burn a CD for the car: "The attempt to burn a disc failed.  The burn failed because of a medium write error."  What does this mean?  And how do I work around it?

    I had been getting this all morning and checked other messages from the community. THe one which worked was trying a different brand of disc.
    I had been using Verbatim which had copied the music fine off the Real Player on my PC at school, but wouldn't work with I Tunes. Tried a Staples and an Office Depot CD-R , both of which did the job.

    How do I get rid of this error and what does it mean?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • DSPPublishing error -29. what does this mean... I'm trying to burn to DVD

    DSPPublishing error -29. what does this mean... I'm trying to burn to DVD

    It means – more or less – that the job action (burning the disk) failed.
    Sometimes this happens because the app doesn't like something about a background image that is to be used in the menu. If you have such an image, reduce its dimensions. If you don't have one, in Settings in the dialog, cick Add and then Cancel.Some people have found that that alone is enough to kickstart the job action.

  • Error (13010), what does this mean?

    error (13010), what does this mean?

    I just got a new Mac and wanted to transfer my old iTunes library to it.  After a night of attempting to import the old library to the new Mac it said that the library was damaged and subsequent restarts yielded the 13010 error.  I deleted everything listed, did a number of iTunes reintalls and the only thing that has allowed iTunes to continue is to dig up a backup library (which is in progress now).  Barring this working, how can I get it so that iTunes boots again as if it is factory fresh?

  • VISA error: -1074003961 What does it mean?

    When attempting to set parameters with Agilent's Set PWM Parameters.vi on my new 81626 power head I get this VISA error: -1074003961 What does it mean?
    I try the exact same VI with my 81623 Power Head and it works fine. Anyone have any answers?
    I have a 8163 Mainframe with two 81619 Interface Modules intalled. In the Modules I have a 81623 head installed in slot 1 Channel 1, and a 81626 head in each of the channels of slot 2.
    The error follows the 81626 heads. The 81623 head works fine.

    Drugar:
    That is BFFC0007, which is not a VISA driver code but is an instrument driver error. From vpptype.h, that seems to say that parameter 7 is what is causing the error. I guess you need to look at the C function prototype to figure out what the 7th parameter value should be.
