    Symptoms

    The following alerts may appear when trying to download purchased content from the iTunes Store:

    "There was an error downloading your purchased music. An unknown error occurred (-50)."

    This can happen when the connection timeout occurs while downloading purchased content from the iTunes Store. Certain types of software may also affect the way a computer sends and receives information from the internet. Here are a few examples of these types of software:

    Firewalls

    Web Accelerators

    Ad Filters

    Virus Protection Software

    If you have any of the software listed above, and you cannot access the iTunes Store or complete your download, you will need to configure these applications to allow iTunes to connect to the Internet.

    Please refer to the documentation that came with that software, and if necessary contact the software's manufacturer. You will need to configure the software to allow the following domains to send and receive data from the Internet.

    itunes.apple.com

    ax.itunes.apple.com

    albert.apple.com

    gs.apple.com

    If a web accelerator appears to be causing the issue, please contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or the software manufacturer. If your computer is on a network, you may also want to try using a different computer on the network, or discuss the issue with the network administrator.

    If you find that this error only occurs while attempting to download video content, you may be able to resolve this issue by deleting the cached video files of the download, then resuming your download.
