Trying to download ios 3 getting error code 8288  please help

Have a first generation ipod touch, trying to download ios 3 to computer getting error code 8288, please help.

I finally solved this on my own. I installed iTunes 9.2 on my Mac. You can get it from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1056
Then I went to the iOS 3 purchase page here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052
and clicked the Purchasing link. It opens up iTunes. I connected my iPod touch G1 and did a check for system update. Miraculously, it found it this time and downloaded the update.
No guarantee that this'll work for you, but I'm finally able to use my iPod touch again and put on some useful apps.

    Hi ratcat14!
    I have an article that can help you troubleshoot this issue:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • Trying to update Itunes 10.7 and keep getting error code 2349 please help want Itunes back

    please help I uninstalled the itunes I already had and now have no itunes :/

    Although it's a better bet with a 2330 than a 2349, I'd try running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive. 
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    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?

    This should help you empty what's currently in the trash, but is no guarantee you got everything related to MacKiller off the drive. See Ogelthorpe's link.

  • Trying to load Photoshop, getting error code -70

    Please attach a screenshot of the error and let us know which version of Photoshop you are using.

    very good. You also had posted originally on the Using Apple Support Communities forum (dedicated to "How do I use this forum and find My Stuff in it?"). I had already asked our gracious Hosts to move it to Using iPhone where it now resides and will likely get more prompt attention. In the meantime, you might consider browsing and/or searching Using iPhone for similar issues as your own.
    best luck

    I have bought a new computer and backed up off time machine backup now I cannot open photoshop get error code 150 30 help appreciated.?

    Have you updated your iTunes on your computer? WIth a device running iOS7, you need iTunes 11.
    When you removed iTUnes, did you see something named 'apple mobile device support' or something like it? (The exact name varies from operating system to operating system). If you see that, uninstall it too. That's the drivers for your iPhone and they should self-install when you plug your device in.
    If all that is fine, have you checked your cable and USB port? a malfunctioning cable can keep you from syncing.

  • I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132.  Please help.

    I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132.  Please help.

    I had this exact issue.  Spent over an hour on the phone with apple support, they couldn't resolve.  Here is what I ended up doing, that worked.
    1.  Turned iTunes match off on all my iOS devices
    2.  Deleted the offending playlists from the iOS device they originated on
    3.  Started iTunes, let it run (literally) for an hour before it became responsive.  First thing I did, before clicking anywere else was disable iTunes match.  If I clicked anywhere, it would clock for another hour.
    4.  Let iTunes run overnight, by morning it had cleaned out the repeating play lists.  This got my Mac/iTunes back to an operable state.
    5.  Restore iPhones from backup in iTunes.
    What was causing my issue was a single playlist that was created on an iPhone, then suddenly showed up with several thousand duplicates on my other iPhone.  The culprit playlist did not, for some reason, duplicate itself on my two iPads.  Apple support seemed to think it was because the problem iPhone tried to sync the playlist to iCloud over and over again unsuccessfully, then it finally went through and populated the thousands of blank/failed playlists which then tried to propigate to iTunes and my other iOS devices.  Seems like a reasonable theory.
    I have not yet re-enabled iTunes match.  So, no idea what will happen if I decide to go back down that rabbit hole.

  • Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?

    Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
    repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)

    That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).
