Unknown error while trying to restore through iTunes

I was switching between channels when the unit became sluggish in responding to the remote.The screen went black and the USB to iTunes icon popped up on the screen. After some time and a google search I read what I had to do… using Itunes to restore the unit. Why this happened is a mystery. However the problem I am having is this... after several attempts to download from iTunes I get the following error message after about 60 MB downloading : "There was a porblem downloading the software for Apple TV "Apple TV". An unnown error occured ( -50).
Yes my network is working fine ( I am writing this message ) The apple TV is hooked up to my Air using the mini USB cord. And I tried the download with the unit plugged into AC power and unplugged from AC power. What else is there to do? Thanks!

    •    Check that you have correctly followed the instructions for your model of Apple TV.
    •    If not already, try using a powered USB port.
    •    Repeat the process but this time try connecting the cable while iTunes is closed.
    •    Repeat the process with another cable.
    •    Try restoring the Apple TV on another computer in another location.

Error 3194:

It means that Apple has stopped signing the version of iOS that you have, try downloading the latest iOS version, then try Restore again.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

My iPhone 4s screen went black. I can hear the phone receiving messages though. I tried to restore through itunes. I failed because "find my iPhone" app is on, I cannot switch it on since the screen is black and I can't see

Instead of trying to restore through iTunes, use the Find My iPhone to your advantage.
Either go to www.icloud.com and perform a remote wipe of the device via FMiP, or download the FMiP app to another iOS device and do it from there.
A remote wipe will also restore the device back to factory settings.

Unknown Error when trying to restore backup on iPad

I'm trying to restore a backup onto my iPad 2, and every time I try to restore it, it does what it should where it starts to load and has the estimated time, etc. But when it finishes it says that there was an unknown error. When I tried to restore it, it did the same thing but instead gave me the error 1604, which I still can't get fixed either, but I tried restoring it on a different computer and it worked fine. So I thought there was something wrong with the computer that I originally tried it with that was causing the problem, so I transferred the backup onto the other computer and tried it and it game me the exact same error. I've spent days trying to fix this, and nothing has worked. I already looked at and tried doing what the support sites say with troubleshooting, restoring, recovery/DFU mode, etc. but nothing has worked. My iPad is on iOS 6.1 and I just upgraded iTunes to the latest version before I started all of this, and it is jailbroken with Evasi0n, although I've tried it with and without the jailbreak installed and it still has the same outcome. Is it a memory problem? Has anyone had the same problem and fixed it, or has any suggestions? And if not, is there a way that I can easily extract all of the files from the backup and put them on my iPad without using iTunes? Thanks.

Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

Unknown error when trying to sync from itunes to ipod

Does anyone know what the problem is? Everytime I try to sync music onto my 4GB ipod nano, a message pops up saying:
Attempting to copy to the disk [ipod name] failed. An unknown error occured (-54).
I can't seem to figure out what is wrong. I restored my ipod and reset my ipod, but I still don't know what is wrong.

Thanks for you suggestion roaminggnome. I tried typing in 13019 like you said and it gave me a few options to try and fix it but none of them worked (of course). I fiddled around with it for a while some more on my own and some how got it to work again, lol. Thanks again though for offering a solution.

I talked to TOshiba tech support and after going through this for a while. The tech ended up saying that the MBR is messed up and that I needed to buy a new hard drive. I can still access it via command prompt and SYstem Recovery. I booted up to DOS prompt with a WIN98 CD and did FDisk and format. Still got error. Tried startup repair. Received an "does not have a valid system partition" error.
I booted up to Ultimate Boot CD. Fixed partition problem. Now getting BOOTMGR missing. It has been too long since I worked computer support and do not know what to do to get this fixed. I find it hard to believe that I need new hard drive if I can do all of this with it. Please help.
Thank you.

hi. Here's the answer to your problem i think. when you are copying the zzimages files to the temp folder you have to copy the zzimage files from ALL the restore disks, or you'll get that error message. and you can use the bootrec tool to fix the boot record. here's a link that tells how to do that. good luck. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392

Unknown Error while trying to log in

While I was attempting to authorize my computer to play music, and even to just log on to my account, I got a message that read "We could not complete your iTunes store request. An unknown error occurred (-9808). There was an error in iTunes store. Please try again later." Anyone else gotten this message, or know how to fix it?

Welcome to AD!
The top 3 fixes to itunes error 9808 seem to be
1) Go to Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced, make sure that SSL 3.0 is checked and TLS 1.0 is checked. Also under Security make sure that the “Check for server certificate revocation (requires restart)” is unchecked. Then click ok and fire up iTunes.
2) The culprit may be Norton. Go to Norton’s Personal Firewall and add the program “iTunes Helper.exe” and set the option to “Allowed” (”iTunes.exe should already be in the Allowed category.)
3) close iTunes if you have it open right now. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Local Settings/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes.
Delete or cut the preferences.xml file which contains your iTunes preferences.
Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes and delete or move the preferences.xml file.
Restart iTunes and it will recreate those two (or one) files with the default settings.

Forgot password.Tried to wipe by using Find my iPhone but won't connect to wifi even though it is turned on in the lock screen.Then tried to restore through iTunes but couldn't because Find my iPad on. Removed the iPad but iTunes still not working. Help!

My daughter stopped using her iPad when she got an iPhone for Christmas. It has been over one month and she has forgotten her passcode. I tried to wipe it via Find my iPhone but it won't connect to the wifi even though wifi is switched on on the lock screen. I then tried to restore it through iTunes but was unable to becuase Find my iPhine was switched on so I removed the iPad from the device list only to find that it didn't solve anything with the iTunes situation and it still won't connect to the wifi. I ahve tried turning wifi on and off, tried leaving the house and re-entering all to no avail. Is there any other way to restore the iPad????

Getting an "unknown error' when trying to sign into iTunes Store

Thanks

I received this email from Apple and this corrected the problem for me... I only had to reset the iTunes cache
1) Open iTunes
2) At the top menu, click File > Preferences (iTunes > Preferences on a Mac)
3) In the Preferences menu, click the Advanced tab
4) In the Advanced menu, you should see a button that says "Reset Cache". Please click this button.

Error When Trying to Restore from iTunes Backup

I had to erase and re-install the operating system. I thought I had iTunes covered by burning an iTunes backup to a CD, but when trying to restore iTunes from the CD it will restore a few songs and then give an error message that it was unable to read or write to my hard drive. I looks as though it restored the music that I owned and put on the computer but not the tunes I had purchased from the iTunes store and not the playlists. I did not know enough to burn the /music file. Is there anything I can do to get the burned CD to restore?

Contacts are not part of the backup. They are seperate and either you need to sync them with an email program such as outlook or use icloud mail,contacts, and calendars on the phone. Unless you did that then the contacts are gone.

Skipped or bad frames causes "Unknown error" while trying to fuse or export as...

Hi. So, I'm trying to fuse footage from my Canon xf305 -to- an H.264 Youtube HD 29.97. I've successfully done this many times before, but this, one, particular clip has some problems. WithIn the roughly 10 minutes of this clip there are 4 small sections that the footage (video portion) seems to stall onto a still frame. This lasts literally for mabe 5 frames or so, and then the video continues. other than that the clip plays fine on the timeline, It's almost undetectable, but when I try and export out to any other format, Premiere gives me an "Unknown Error" about halfway through the export/fuse. What's Up With That?
I's there a way to "Force" Primiere to ignore those bad frames and export as best as possible?
Thanks in Advance for any answeres. Rich

First thing I'd recommend is deleting the Cache files. Go to Edit>Preferences>Media... and take note of their location on the hard drive. Then close down PP and use Windows Explorer or Finder to delete those files. When you reopen your project, PP will rebuild those files.
Second thing I recommend is adding your voice to the following feature request to make this process easier.
