iTunes stopped downloading new versions of music (err = 9006)

I loaded iTunes 7.2 and it immediately asked me to upgrade all my purchased music (that it could) with the non-DRM versions. I thought, OK, fine. So I pushed the button.

It's not going too well. One, it started downloading 30 songs at once. The process looked like it was going to take hours. Fine. I started doing something else. But then I started getting error messages with certain songs. There were a few different numbers, but the most prevalent one was: stopped (err = 9006).

Two, I have my music on two different computers. When I downloaded it to one, the other one will no longer see it as a purchased song that needs to be downloaded. I loaded it on my iPod, but I have no way of taking it off my iPod to my other computer - Transfer purchases does not work for it.

Anyone else having these problems?

The original DRM'ed files should still be on your computer, either on the desktop or in the trash can depending on which option you chose. If the new DRM-free version hasn't completed downloading yet, the original should still be in your iTunes Music folder.

What do I do when I have removed the original tunes completely accidently - they no longer exists, and in my error I upgraded a "package" deal which included those songs. Now the iTunes 7.2 is stuck. I would like to have the upgraded music downloads left over removed from my account so I can go on with doing things better and my computer is not bogged down any longer.

Please advise -

Well, I am also having this famous err=9006. I have only managed to download 4 songs and still have 21 waiting...

Did not work restarting, changing LAN connection (work vs. home) or just let time pass...

I hope that it will get better, I've never had problems with the iTunes store, but if it starts working like this I will have to start looking for alternatives...

I also decided to upgrade my pruchased library to the new DRM free versions. It worked for 10 selections, now tells me everything is done, there is nothing left to upgrade. I don't get any error code message, it just tells me there is nothing to upgrade. I searched the menus, tried checking and unchecking, selecting and unselecting; nothing works.

You called it. It's been a few days, and I tried it again and it quickly downloaded the nine remaining files it didn't download last week.

Problem solved.

Why has Front Row stopped working on my mini ever since downloading iTunes 7.2? Works manually (with keyboard and mouse) but NOT with Front Row Remote - "Can not find netwrork..." yet it works fine when i connect using keyboard and mouse.

I had the same problem and I'm guessing t was because so many people were upgrading and the server got overloading. My songs finished a week later.
