Cannot connect to itunes from ipod

I have an oldish ipod 8gb 1.1.5 and never really used it properly.  Now I want to and when I try to connect to itunes from it, I get the message 'cannot connect to itunes store'.  Thought it might be easier through my PC, but the PC doesn't even recognise the ipod.  Please help - I am not very computer literate either, so that probably doesn't help!

See:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
Also:
If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
Then:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Further, you can update your iPod to iOS 3.1.3 by:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)

    However, some other users have reported the same problem so it May be an Apple server problem.

  • Cannot connect to itunes store ipod touch via router

    I am new to Ipod ownership and so far its been a good experience.
    I have been searching on the web but not been able to find a solution to my problem.
    The issue I have is that recently I cannot download apps from the app store via my home router. I can search the internet etc using it but when I click to install an app I get the message that says "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". I have tried to use a different wireless router (my mobile phone acting as a hotspot) and do not get the same message.
    I assume therefore that there is some issue between the router (a netgear WGR614) and the ipod. The annoying thing is that I could do it earlier in the week.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Two things to try.  Please reply with what works.
    1: Turn on Airplane mode, then turn it off again.  This resets internet related settings.
    Does it work?
    2:  Changing the DNS in Setting, Wi-Fi, DHCP tab, DNS , replace with 8.8.8.8 (Google) or 8.8.4.4 (Google)
    Does it work?

  • Cannot connect to itunes from my iphone 4

    I get a message that says "Cannot connect to iTunes store" yet my App store works fine? This has been going on for a week since i bought my phone.
    Any solutions.

    This troubled me for a week....found THE only solution with "complete" (not so complete) success.  iBooks has a completely isolated Apple ID login.  It is not the same as the iTunes Store or App Store.  Here's what works.....Delete your iBooks App...then, log out of your iTunes Store by going to settings/store...choose your ID and log out....then connect to iTunes and add iBooks again...sync....login to iBooks...set up your ID info.....after confirmation...go to settings/store and login again.....now your STORES are online and ready to use.....it's confusing to say the least...Apple must be aligning these for iCloud....SO...to recap....I now have a seperate Apple ID login for iBooks...SAME Apple ID but different password....I tried using the same password as my iTunes Store and it would not work!  I have also attempted changing my password in my account from my MB and it does not recognize the change...I hope this all gets resolved when iCloud is launched....

  • Cannot connect to itunes from iphone

    I have a Wi Fi connection email works Safari Works but when I launch itunes I get a message saying "Cannot connect to the itunes store you must connect to a wi fi network to access the itunes store"
    I have reset all settings yet the same thing happens.

    I have the same problem, but in the DHCP setting it won't let me enter the IP address & other settings. I can put them in Static tab but then it won't let me renew the lease. Twice I've gotten to the point where it asks for the network key (this is a secure network in my house). I enter the key, but it doesn't make the connection. I've tried forgetting the network and re-establishing the connection, but that doesn't work either. Safari is working fine. Any suggestions?

    Cured the problem! Reinstalled an earlier version of itunes from oldapps.com (version 10) now everything works as it should. I would suggest that if you are experiencing these problems that you do the same. I must say that it is a brave business decision on behalf of apple to effectively lock out all windows 7 users from their products and sales channels and I can only wish them luck in this very shortsighted policy.

    My ipod 4 apps wil not open. They blink on then off real fast. I try to update but get the message "cannot connect to itunes store"> New apps work. I recently upgraded to windows 7, but our other ipod works fine. I recently deleted some songs and apps and since then have had this problem. i've tried all the suggestions I can find on appe support, nothing works

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
