Unknown error 400 when updating apps through iTunes.

I have been getting an error message 400 when trying to update apps from the app store on my macbook. I can only update them from my iphone. I am able to purchase and download the original apps as well as music and movies. Are there any fixes for this issue? I do not have this problem on my imac.
Thanks

I had the same problem and after a full day on the phone with Apple, there was no solution. Then, I tripped over it! The issue was with a third party program that was supposed to be allowing all traffic, but wasn't. The program is NetBarrier and once it was removed and my MacBook Pro was rebooted, all was great. The iMac wasn't affected (in my case) because I never installed that program on the iMac.
I blogged it here: http://www.wickedblog.com/2010/03/23/itunes-wont-update-apps-itunes-error-400/. I hope this helps others avoid hours of searching.

  • Error 3253 when updating Apps in iTunes

    For a few weeks now, I can't update apps in iTunes on my iMac without having an Error 3253 : reinitializing of the connexion. The configuration of my Mac has not changed and I don't have this problem when I connect from my iPad or when I download on my Mac a new app.
    I have checked forums about it but found no solution.
    Could someone give me a solution ?
    Thanks

    I had this same issue and it ended up being a firewall on my router. Check out your firewall settings on 3rd party software you may have installed as well as your router firewall.

  • IPad app store "unknown error" message when updating app

    iPad app store "unknown error" message appears when updating app

    Kathryn,
    Had the problem also.  Found in the forums and it worked for me:
    go to settings
    go to app store or "store" on my ipad
    click on the apple id
    sign out
    sign in, again with id and password
    then do update.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't install or update apps through iTunes

    Seems I can't install or update apps through iTunes. It keeps giving me error messages. I the only way I can get around this is updating through the App Store app on iPod touch. I think this problem started since updating to Lion.

  • When updating apps in iTunes there is no more description what's "new in this version"...

    Hi
    I regulary update my  collection of apps via iTunes on my Macbook Pro and then sync  back to my iPhone and iPad. When I check out the website of a specific app (https://itunes.apple.com/.../app/.../id) in a browser or in the update tab on my iPad/iPhone I can find a description of what's new in the current version of the app. This used to be also a helpful feature in iTunes but it's gon with iTunes 11. Strange but when updating apps in iTunes there is mostly no more description what's "new in this version"...

    I did download these. Tarascon Adult Emergency Medicine, Scanner 911, Angry Birds, Cut the rope, Epicurious, Home Away, Nike Running, etc...
    I occationally sync it with my computer. I wonder if I can delete them from there?

  • TS3219 Is anyone receiving a "unknown error" message when updating/getting new apps?

    Before and after installing the new update I started receiving an "unknown error" message when trying to update apps. I changed my password thinking that was it but I am still getting the error message.

    Try signing out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again and see if that works for you.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Sign in again -Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign in.
    If that doesn't work either, reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • TS3297 "unknown error." when trying to login iTunes 11

    Hey everyone,
    I'm getting an "unknown error." when I'm trying to login iTunes 11.
    When I enter my apple ID and password I the same window pops up again with "Unknown error." in red.
    When I try to login again I get the popup with "Did you forget your password?" but I know for sure that I entered my password right.
    Everything worked perfectly before.
    The last app I downloaded was Real Racing 3 from the AU appstore. (with a second account, my main account is for the Dutch appstore.

  • Update apps through iTunes

    I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 5. My iPhone shows that there are updates for two of my apps. When I select Store > Check for Available Downloads in iTunes I get a message that says "All purchases have been downloaded for this account." How can I update the apps through iTunes?

    John Link wrote:
    I'm aware that I don't have the latest OS on my iPhone.
    What I meant is that iTunes has the 2 apps already updated. You need to connect & select iPhone in iTunes and click the Sync button as describe above to update the apps on iPhone.
    I want to avoid using 2.
    Why?

  • I am having trouble updating apps through iTunes, iTunes shuts down when I try to sync.

    I am having trouble updating apps that I have on my iPhone through iTunes.  I go through the update then when syncing I get an error message iTunes has to shut down.  The only way I have been able to work around is to delete the app and download it again.  If I don't do this the app says waiting on my iPhone.

    I just got the same message myself. Which I have only had 2 times in three years, so I checked here.
    http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/
    There is an issue with the iTunes Store on Apple's end, so I assume that is why we cannot connect.

  • Issue with Updating Apps through iTunes

    I have been having this issue for sometime now, and through multiple versions of iTunes. Whenever I open up iTunes and see that there are apps that I need up update, i'll click on applications, ill go and click update apps, I'll see the apps that need to be updated and ill click update. I put in my password, but when I do that, I get an error saying:
    We could not complete your iTunes store request. There is not enough memory available.
    There is an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later.
    Obviously I have enough memory and space on my computer, but not sure if this is an error with the store itself or with my computer some how. I can download new apps with out a problem, purchase anything and download anything through iTunes, even after that error pops up, but I just cant update any apps. I can update them on my phone, and if I sync my phone with iTunes, and then try updating apps that might not be on my phone when I updated them, it will work then. Not sure what would cause this, and its not that big of a deal, just an annoyance and something I find a bit odd.
    Thanks for any info and advice.

    What part of no wifi did you not understand?
    I'm well aware that I can update through the app store, if you had read the original question properly you would see that.
