  • Anyone getting an unknown error 4010 when launching iTunes Match?

    Never had any problems with iTunes Match until the last week.  Now whenever I open iTunes and Match starts to update it gets stuck once it starts "sending data to apple."  A warning pops up and says "unknown error 4010."  I also downloaded an album and when I synced it to my iPhone all the songs were on there twice.  Never had any problems with Apple or iTunes before, but lately I've had nothing but frustrations.  Any help would be appreciated. 
    Thanks,
    Steven

    Unfortunately getting the same problem as yourself although I've just purchased Itunes Match yesterday and haven't even seen it work. Wondering if i have just wasted my money! I've tried the option/turn off itunes match but even that doesnt work. wondering if I just need to give it a bit more time.

  • What action can I take to eliminate the following error message when launching iTunes?

    Since the iTunes upgrade last week I persistently get the following message when launching iTunes. "You are signed in with a different Apple ID than previously used with Podcasts. Do you want to sync these podcast subscriptions and stations with ------------ "
    I only have one Apple ID of which I am aware. I changed the password just before the update, after receiving an email advising access from a device that I did not recognise.
    The error message goes on to refer to a Windows XP, desktop system as the previous platform for this synchronisation. I have been relying upon the old MacBook Pro since March, when iTunes on the Desktop crashed. I gave up trying reinstallation etc. on the desktop as nothing appeared to resolve the problem. I have "uninstalled" the application in Windows but lack the necessary skills to remove all traces. I still get error messages about iTunes when opening Windows XP but there is no evidence of application elements on the Hard Drive / System that I am able to recognise.
    iTunes appears to lack a process for updating to recognise that the current platform should be the default.

    Try signing out of iTunes, then back in again. This worked for me and a few others. To sign out, in the iTunes menu bar, click "Store" > "Sign Out".

  • How do I fix the "unknown error (-45054)" when starting iTunes?

    When starting iTunes an "unknown error (-45054)" occurs and iTunes terminates. How do I fix this problem?

    Might the error be -50?

  • I get an unknown error (-50) when downloading movies from iTunes

    When I download a movie or TV show from iTunes, it starts downloading like normal, then the "time remaining" starts ticking up rapidly. Sometimes it keeps downloading, and then starts over suddenly, but eventually it always leads me to the (-50) unknown error. It also charges me for the movie/TV show. Any ideas how to fix it?

    I have a 30g Video Ipod and I have been having
    problems with it trying to syn up. I downloaded the
    Vista update for it and still no syncing but when I
    tried to update the Ipod I got this message.
    Ipod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured
    (-50).
    If anyone knows what this means and possibly could
    give me help with it, I would appreciate it very much.
    Same thing happened to me last night. It was right after I DL the update given by apple for Windows Vista. I just closed everything restarted my computer and tried again and it worked. Just that now all my Album Artwork is messed up. I'm listening to Fall Out Boy and I get the artwork for Grey's Anatomy Podcast. Weird. I have no idea how to fix it either.

  • Get error message when launching iTunes

    Hi I have a problem with iTunes it's probaly my own fault but i hope someone in here know what i possibnly could do. I succesfully installed iTunes and used it for about two hours, then the electricity shut down in the house while iTunes was running. When i tried to start my PC again and launched iTunes i got an error message from windows, askin me if I wanted to send them a report of the problem.
    i tried to uninstall iTunes and install it again, didnt work. I tried to clean my computer as good as icould clean registry run scan disc and so on, and then install it again no help didnt work.
    Do you know what i possibly could do?

    let's keep pushing our luck with the Windows troubleshooting techniques ... so far this is proceeding just like a standard PC troubleshoot ...
    okay, that's the result that suggests that you've got a problem with the itunes preferences files in your usual XP User Account. there's a different set of preference files in each XP user account, which is why we can get this "crash in one account, launch in another" behavior.
    if you've got damaged preference files, we can usually get past this by rebuilding the preference files in the usual account.
    quit itunes. log out of the new account and back into the usual account.
    find and delete the following two files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    (“<username>” here will be the name of the account you’re having difficulties with.)
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) these will be rebuilt the next time you try to launch itunes in your usual user account.
    (the itunes setup assistant will run, you'll be asked to agree to the license again, and so forth.)
    after the setup assistant has finished, does itunes finish launching without the crash?

  • Error (-42110) when opening iTunes

    Hi All,

  • Unknown error (-50) when synching photos from iPhoto

    Hi all,
    I got a new iMac couple of weeks ago. Everything works fine except for the synchronization of photos from iPhoto to my iPhone 4S and my iPad 4.
    When I select a folder to sync it works fine. When I select iPhoto as source (all, album, event, face) iTunes shows an error message that the iPad/iPhone could not be synced and the an 'Unknown error occured (-50)'.
    I am up to date with iPhoto, iTunes and Mac OS X.
    Any idea what the problem could be?
    Thanks,
    Tobias

    I don't want to know anything. You need to tell people that if they follow your advice they lose data - any edits or changes made to photos in iPhoto, any albums, books, slideshows etc they have made, any additional metadata they have added - places, faces, keywords, and, unless you're quite careful exporting, possibly some of the metadata added by your camera too.
    The very least you might do is explain the options in the Export dialogue, the implications of the choices made there and how they contrast with drag and drop.
    An iPhoto installation is made up of two quite distinct parts - the app and the Library. I know of no issue that has ever required nuking both. As you don't tell us what efforts you made to solve your problem I won't comment futher.

  • Error Message when launching iTunes

    I can't launch iTunes anymore - yesterday it worked fine. I get an error message <<iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration>>. I have de-installed and then reinstalled iTunes on my PC but it makes no difference. Any advice? Thanks!

    Perhaps this Apple KnowledgeBase article will help:
    iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes had detected an audio configuration problem
    Good luck.

  • Received an unknown error -42110 when trying to sync ipod touch?

    ipod touch won't sync to itunes.....and it froze up after I updated everything on it and loaded new apps.  I can't get out of the frozen state?

    "Error 3001,"  "-42110," or "5103"
    This alert is related to iTunes Store movie rentals and authorization issues.
    Make sure you are using the most recent version of iTunes and QuickTime. They both can be downloaded free of charge.
    If your iTunes is up to date, remove the SC Info folder.

  • Error7 (windows error 127) when launching iTunes 11.1.4

    I tried the complete uninstall of iTunes (HT1923), but get the same error after re-install.  This really blows...and all for a "minor" update.  Any other suggestions?

    Followed steps in HT1923 again, ...this time there was a Program Files (x86)\iTunes folder left over after uninstall, with a QTVidWin.dll (or something like that).  I removed the directory, rebooted, reinstalled iTunes and now things are working.
