iTunes Error

Fixing 5103

Okay, so the thing that causes this error is an incorrect time stamp on your computer when you try to perform a transaction with the iTunes store, most commonly with rentals. It's believed that this was instituted due to the fact that people were resetting their clocks into the future when they first played rentals, then resetting to normal time. This gave them years to watch their rental.

Fortunately, all that should be required is simple. Resetting your clock to internet time/automatic time and reauthorizing your account is all that you are supposed to have to do, but that, many times, does not work. If it does not, you need to delete the folder "SC Info". The following article has the information down in it's second part: Apple iTunes Requires Constant Authorization and Doesn't Play Downloaded Content

Hope this helps you out.

 

I have kinda the same deal. i rented four movies from itunes and it finished and the it poped up with we could not complete your itunes store request. " An unknown error occurred (-42110). So i spent quite a bit of money just to be wasted. PLEASE HELP

 

did you try the suggestion explained in this thread?

 

iTunes error

I rented 4 movies and when it comes to"processing files" it pops: we could not complete your iTunes request, an unknown error occurred (5103). There was an error in the iTunes store, please try again later. I was charged for the movies and can't see them. It seems that I'm not the only one....... Please HELP!!!!!

 

Tried deleting "CS info" ?

You can also try to delete the "CS info" directory in Itunes, I was lucky with that one.

Another suggestion I read elsewhere for this error is to update Itunes to the latest version.

.... For me Itunes is a very annoying user experience (low volume, issues playing om my HD monitor, to various bugs from time to time), I think they'll only fix these things when a big competitor comes along and makes it easy to rent many popular movies.
