Q: Podcast error 3259

I have four podcasts from Thursday 27th & Friday 28th Feb and no matter what I do I can't download them.

 

It's the error 3259, yet I have the latest version of Itunes. Other podcasts are working fine.

 

Any tips most welcome.

 

Thanks

    Hey there Sheffster,

     

    It sounds like you are getting this error code when trying to download Podcasts from the iTunes Store. I would recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:

     

    iTunes Store reporting error - 3259

    1. Remove any proxy information you have set up.
    2. Update to the latest iTunes software version.
    3. Try turning off your Firewall to see if the issue is resolved (this includes the built-in Firewall or a third-party Firewall such as Norton Personal Firewall, McAfee, Symantec, etc.). Learn how to turn off your Firewall:
