I am running iTunes 12.6.5 on High Sierra as I want to control what updates go to my i-devices. Today for the first time, I'm getting error -8288 on all i-app downloads. The download seems to complete, but when the download finishes, this error appears. BTW, an iOS system update thru iTunes worked just fine.
What I have done: Restarted iTunes; Logged out of my account and logged in again.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I found these directions somewhere else in the Knowledge Base and tried them over weekend. No help.
Don't have any of the suggested folders but right now I can download updates again :)
I guess Apple fixed something , Yeah!
@DJ PHAZE, that got me there. Downloads proceeding normally.

Thanks for letting us know! After seeing your note, I just downloaded a couple of apps.
Ready to hit Update All for the other 43!
Also started working for me.
To BobW0904, thank you very much for calling in and taking one for the team very much appreciated. All of my apps updated on their own and I was able to add new ones. Thank you.
All apps updated!
Wow! One of the fastest fixes I've seen. I guess we should give Apple credit for doing it right this time.
Amazing spontaneous fix of the problem. Whoever ‘put the plug back in’ thank you
mojave nin içine tek başına kuramazsın:/ kurulu olan iTunes i kopyalayıp yapıştırmak lazım.
2 sıkıntı olmaz ama iTunes içine at 10-15 dk beklersin (uygulama sayısına ve ssd kalitene göre) hatta daha iyi olur ltd dosyası ile uğraşmana gerek kalmaz:)
Evet onu diyorum dmg içinden kuramazsın.

OP here. Downloads working again - no changes on my part.
I have the same issue. Apple expert said the solution in https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208079 is not for personal use; downloading apps from iTunes has been blocked. Very little apps can still be downloaded successfully at present.
Same all, started this week.
I am able to download the same apps on the same computer using iMazing.
Then I can:
delete the outdated file from iTunes Media/Mobile Applications,
copy the outdated file to the archive on my server,
empty my trash,
export the app as .ipa from iMazing into the Mobile Applications directory,
Get Info on the app in iTunes, which fails, prompting a Locate window,
and find the file exported from iMazing,
at which point the file disappears from the iTunes Update window, and I have one file updated.
Hideous process, but it does work.
Reddit users with multiple accounts on the same machine report that some work and some don't.
