What is going on with itunes

can someone please tell me what the error (-50) is when I try to download my music.

Here's an article that discusses one cause of such errors:
iTunes for Windows: An unknown error occured (-50) - There was an error in the Music Store
Though it refers specifically to McAfee's software, any privacy filter could cause a similar error. In addition, download accelerators can also cause errors when trying to connect to the iTunes Music Store, so if you have any such, disable it and try again.
Hope this helps.

What's going on with iTunes 7 and Videos????

Hi! Thanks for reading me.
Does anyone knows what's going on with the videos in iTunes 7? I use iTunes for Windows (XP Pro SP2). In older versions I used the next sequence:
File>Add File to Library> I selected my file from my computer (music or video) and everything normal, then from iTunes to my iPod. But NOW! it just doesn't work!
It is supposed that the video file has been added to library but when I search for it. It doesn't exist!! Sorry to say but, great MAC! something so easy becomes a mess.
Any help or idea? I already looked for the video in the "Recent videos" and also tried the "solution" to play the video in Quick Time and then export it... The thing is that now Quick Time isn't running! Also a mess, I used not to have problems with the Quick Time, until the "great" new iTunes 7.

What is going on with itunes? I can't download podcasts via iphone 3G.

Same on my wife's 3GS. It works on my friends iPhone 4. It is the vast majority of podcasts on a 3G or 3GS. I can still download a tiny number of the ones I checked (Tech Center) but the biggies (TWIT, Tech News Today, Security Now, Tekzilla) just show the logo on either 3g or WiFi. This has been going on for almost a week. My 3G is on iOS 3.1.3 and my wife's 3GS is on 3.1.2. I have seen reports of others with the same issue on a 3G/3GS on iOS 4.3.3.

What's going on with iTunes? No screenshots on apps.

Recently upgraded to current version of iTunes. Now when I am looking at descriptions on apps, I don't see the screen shots? Anybody else experiencing this?

Nevermind, the screenshots are back.

Beyond resetting what have you tried?
Common fixes can be to use a different USB port or different USB cable. You can also try updating iTunes, or uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.
Does your computer see it at all? Is there a little chirp when you plug it in?

As per the Apple iCloud status page, they are having issues. Do not make changes at your end.

The single download means that you won't be able to redownload it from the store without paying, either on a computer's iTunes or an iOS device - it doesn't stop you from copying the audiobook to your other computers or syncing it to your iOS devices, you just can't redownload it. (I believe that they are all supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them requiring the one-time download.)
You can download audiobooks on your computer's iTunes and sync them to iOS devices, you do not have to buy them directly on the device (if you do then you can copy them back to your computer's iTunes library by connecting the device and using the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option on your computer's iTunes).
What you are doing to sync them should work i.e.
- connecting the iPad to your Mac
- selecting the iPad on your Mac's iTunes
- selecting its Books tab and selecting the audiobooks that you want to sync to the iPad and syncing/applying that selection.
You should then get an audiobooks option in the Music app on your iPad. If they aren't appearing there then do they show in Settings > General > Usage > Music on the device - if you have audiobooks on the iPad then they should be listed there under an 'audiobooks' heading.
By 'restart the iPad' do you mean a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
You could also try closing its Music app via the iPad's taskbar : Force an app to close in iOS.
And do a soft-reset and retry syncing.
I assume that music and other items sync ok ?

What's going on with iCloud 3/11/15?

What's going on with iCloud on 3/11/15? I can't sign in & asked over & over to log in. I need to get into iCloud pages to create a document. Same issues with iTunes.

iCloud appears to be mostly up now, but there's still some issues as reported storage is wrong and attempting to change storage plans results in an error. icloud.com is saying I have no documents or Photos stored, despite the fact there is stuff stored in iCloud Drive and iCloud Photos, both of which are currently working.
I tried calling support, but they couldn't help me without a PIN that you need to get from appleid.apple.com and trying to sign into that site results in an errors, so there are major problems today.

What is going on with the FATAL error message????

What is going on with the FATAL error message????

Same issue, since last night. Can't sign in to iTunes, download apps, or updates to apps on any device. I have iPhone 4S, iPad mini, MacBook Pro. East coast, writing this at 1:21pm EST. Changing password doesn't work. I can't log in with my iCloud address either. I have however noticed at least that if I enter the wrong password, I just get the incorrect password message. Using the right password gets the FATAL:: message every time.
I have my devices set to UK for the region even though I am in the US. Though that might have something to do with it so I switched to US- no change, same problem.
I agree that acknowledgement via their system status would be appropriate. Irritating that they are not at least publicly acknowledging there is a problem. I would feel much less concerned if I knew that they were aware and working on it. Can't find a support number anywhere but I did send a brief message via their help/contact page.

WhAT IS GOING ON WITH APPLE STORE IS NOT WORKING

what is going on with the apple store, it is not working.

Three basic questions (which you may have covered with the customer service people already):
For your speed of movie download problem, how fast is your internet connection? The movie file is probably about 1.5 GB (much larger than the videos and short films you've downloaded before), which could take 20 minutes to download on a really fast connection (at a University), an hour or so on cable, 3+ hours on mid-range DSL, or a lot longer if your connection is slower than that. 8 hours does seem too long, but it's possible the problem is with your internet service, not iTunes. Your router is obviously not the problem if it still takes 8 hours after you've bypassed it.
For the iPod transferring problem, does your iPod have the latest software update (v.1.1.2, which came in the iPod Updater 2006-06-28 for Windows)? You can see what version you have by clicking on your iPod in iTunes and looking at the Summary, where it will tell you what version of the iPod software you've got and will let you download the new one if you need it.
And can you transfer music files to your iPod using iTunes 7 without problems? Can you transfer those old short films to it? Is it just the new movies that won't transfer?
You wouldn't be the only person to be having problems with iTunes 7 for Windows (I'm one of them, too), but it would be helpful to eliminate the basic stuff before giving up.

What is going on with apple?

What is going on with Apple this year? Syncing is now a challenge, when adding new content to devices either way, iphone, ipad, macbook, itunes does not see the content anymore unless you shut it down and re-open it, if you are using iphoto + itunes, neither sync up unless they are both shut down and restarted.
Apple has always done an incredible job syncing content, as it is added in itunes or iphoto or on a device it was immediately accessable on any device to be used or sync based on user settings, is this fragmented syncing due to iOS 6 and itunes or has apple simply lost it's focus or i am missing a setting somewhere?
This fragmentation occurs with photo's, media files such as music and video, apps, email etc. Anyone else experiencing this?

no problem syncing photos and videos for me.
and thats why i manage everything else manually...music and videos. syncing music and videos is 'crap' for me.

What's going on with the music?

What's going on with the music? When ever I am listening to music and I try to multi-task it randomly skips the song around. Sometimes even if my phone is locked it will skip back to random parts of the song. It has really started to big me. Please help. Oh yeah and this only started to happen after I updated my phone to iOS7

Haven't heard about a song including a virus and if so, it certainly was not included with a song purchased from the iTunes store.
If you sync music, deselect sync music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync. This will remove all music from your iPhone.
Reselect Sync Music and your previous selections should be selected automatically followed by a sync to re-transfer the music back to your iPhone.

What is going on with the allowance???

Hi, I'm trying to cancel an allowance, but there's no way for me to do it! Apple says it's on the account info. page, but there is no way to cancel it! The only buttons are: Edit Account Info, Edit Payment Info (you'd think something would be in here at least), Chance Country, Deauthorize All, Purchase History, Edit Nickname, Manage My Alerts, The myiTunes thing, and Reset All warnings. I've checked under all of them, and NOTHING can be done about the allowance. Someone help

Let's check with iTS to see what's going on there.
