Unknown error -9813;  no downloading allowed!

This is getting very tiresome.
I rarely use iTunes-and I use the store even less.
But I found a song I wanted to download and went and opened the ITMS.
when I click on a song, and then try to log in, I get an "unknown error -9813-make sure you have a network connection" well, since i AM in ITMS-I must have a network connection, yes?
If I try to open a new account-same error.
To top it off, I decided to play one of the 5 songs I had in my library, and guess what- not available!
So I go into user/documents/iTunes...hey,wait a minute! there IS no iTunes folder with library inside!
I rather doubt that I trashed the folder, so Im willing to bet that iTunes 6 or 6.01 did it. grrrr.....
I have QT 7.03, ive trashed .plists and did a permissions/keychain repair. nothing.

As you know about permissions repair and suchlike I will guess that you have searched for files (or iTunes Library) on your computer or external HD (mine is on an external drive) to determine whether your library has in fact disappeared altogether.
I used to lose random music files on a fairly regular basis back in iTunes 4 and before but I have found that since version 5 things have been very stable.
Go to the Itunes preferences and click on the advanced cog wheel to see where it thinks your library is located. If it finds the library follow the path displayed... but if it isn;t there I'm not sure what to suggest apart from searcihng for individual music files... Search for m4p files to locate recent purchases.

  • Can't sign in to iTunes or download music "Unknown Error (-9813)"

    Every time I try to sign into iTunes to download music I get the following message:
    "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-9813)"
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and that didn't help....

    My nephew is having the same issue as of today. Opens iTunes 8.0.2, clicks Sign In. Tried to create a new account, got the unknown error -9813.
    We created an AppleID through the website (that only worked in Firefox, not in Safari 3.2.1) and then clicked sign in. We entered his info, same thing, error -9813.
    He's on an iMac running 10.4.11.
    I'm going to say this is a bug or recent issue.

    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.

  • OAB in Outlook 2010 error "unknown error 0x8007007A" on download

    Hi all.
    We have an issue with OAB not downloading with error "unknown error 0x8007007A".
    Autodiscovery test doesn't show any error and seems to be correct.
    The only strange to me that I can't open OAB Url http://srv.domain.local/OAB/61555bea-e998-4edf-8eac-f919879e2950/ and have got 403 error (forbidden).
    Also I've check the OAB folder on server and I have there a bunch of files.
    We use Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2010.
    What I should to do next to fix this error?

    We have been battling this same problem for a number of years.  This only happens on cached mode clients.  I've seen it happen with Outlook 2010 and 2013.  We have Exchange 2007.
    We can't go around and delete and recreate everyone's mail profile every day.  Whats the real solution?  The error description is "unknown" so I think that's why its so hard to pinpoint the cause.

  • Cant connect to itunes store. unknown error -9813

    i have an itunes account and cannot log on, it continues to give me this message. itunes could not connect to the itunes store. An unknown error occured (-9813). It has nothing to do with the network because me and my roomate use the same one and it works fine on his computer.

    You could try to solve the problem by repairing the Keychains.
    Run Keychain Access (./Applications/Utilities), choose 'Keychain First Aid' from the Keychain Access menu, click 'Repair' and 'Start'. If that fails, go to the Keychain preferences>General and click 'Reset My Keychain'
    Reading other posts the above does not often seem to work.
    More successful is replacing the involved files by the same ones from another computer.
    If your roommate also has a Mac, copy the 'X509Anchors' and 'X509Certificates' files from ./System/Library/Keychains from his/her computer to your computer.
    If not available, try to locate another Mac and ask the user to donate the files.
    If this trick doesn't work either, do an Archive and Install. This will cost you some time and it may be necessary to re-install some non-Apple applications, but will (almost) certainly fix the problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • Unknown error -23 while downloading iOS 5

    So I have been using the iPhone 4 for nearly a year and a half now with no issues whatsoever.
    I wanted to update to the iOS 5 earlier today. When iTunes tried to download the OS, it failed with error -23, which is an unknown error. The rest of the message is a cryptic "there was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone <name>".
    I went ahead and got the ipsw file for the GM release of iOS 5 anyway, and proceeded to install it using the "Restore" option (I kept Alt pressed on my keyboard and pointed iTunes to the ipsw file).
    I now have iOS 5 on my phone and it works well. However, all my contacts have disappeared! iTunes has restored my music and my apps, but not my contacts. When I try to use the restore option and get my contacts back from an earlier back up, I experience the same error -23.
    What worries me is that I haven't found a single relevant post on the web related to the specific error code "-23". I have no idea what the issue is and how I can correct it now.
    Any help on this front will be greatly appreciated.
    FYI,
    iTunes: 10.5 (141)
    Mac OSX: 10.6.8 (I gather that the latest version is 10.7.2, but I don't see this update in my software updates...is this an issue?).
    I am from Singapore and I have a Singapore Apple ID. Please reach me if you want any more information.

    Try this Link, it resolve my problems updating to IOS 5.

  • 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.

  • Unknown error (-50) when downloading a movie in iTunes.

    Any advice is appreciated!
    I redeemed a code in the iTunes store to download my digital copy of Les Mis.  I paused the downloads (movie & extras) overnight and the next day the extras wouldn't download again because of the -50 error.  The movie continued downloading with no problems.  Last night my laptop decided to restart (something updated) and this morning when I went to my downloads it said I have 2 available - great!  EXCEPT, neither one will download.  It says it can't access the iTunes Store because of error -50.    HELP?!

  • Cannot connect to iTunes Store. Unknown error -9813

    Doers anyone know what this means when I try to connect to the iTunes store?
    I have a PC with windows as well and can cnnect to my itunes store from windows with no issues, but on this Mac, i have never been able to connect to the itune store as I get the above error. I have full access to internet.
    Is this a firewall issue or something in my system tat is stopping it from login in to the iTunes store?
    Hlelp is much appreciated.

    It means 'cert chain not verified by root', I'm guessing it's something to do with the security certificate the iTMS uses. A first step might be verifying/resetting your keychain. Have a look here for more information on Keychain First Aid.
    It could be a firewall issue, but from memory, the built-in firewall that ships with Mac OS has the relevant port open by default. Have you got a third-party firewall? If so, throw caution to the wind briefly and turn it off, then try connecting to the iTMS. If this works, have a look at the vendor's website and see if they have instructions on how to configure your firewall to allow access to the Store. Also, according to an Apple article, if you've recently switched ISPs without installing new network software, that might be the problem, in which case contact your ISP to see if they can help.
    Good luck!

  • Unknown error?  Cannot download anything

    I am unable to download, update anything with the app store.  I am running OS 10.7.5 on a mac book pro, I owe nothing on my account and all of my OS software is up to date.  I also get an error message "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (7)"  I have inquired with apple support and was given not too much of an answer.  I have a suspicion that this error may have to do with my permissions and the app store cannot write to its root folder.   So i repaired my permissions and still nothing..... I am on the verge of just taking my mac pro to the apple store and have them take a look.  Anyone have any suggestions? 

    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    1. Settings>Store>Apple ID.
    2. Tap your ID and sign out.
    3. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off.
    4. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to download again.
