Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now. -

I did not know how to restore 10.5.3.3 as one person suggested and there appears to be no support to do this that I could find. Has Apple fixed this problem for 10.6 yet?
Yes-I followed all of the instructions up to an including the changes recommened in security settings-nothing worked. My time/date is accurate, I changed internet options on Explorer insuring the proper settings under advanced, etc. At this point from reading the hassles of others it seems like the best idea is to downgrade to itunes 10.5.3 but don't know how to do that..thanks for reply

<Edited by Host>"iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. The
connection was reset.
Make sure your network connection is active and try
again."
I wasn't getting this message yesterday, and my
network connection is most certainly active. This is
a problem plaguing every iTunes user I know, PC or
Mac. What's going on here?
I have tried on two consecutive evenings (15th and 16th) to purchase a song. I have purchased many songs from the iTunes Music Store over the past year. iTunes 6 has been installed for over a month and I have purchased songs since that installation. I have connected to the iTunes Music Store and can search and see results and information, but cannot get to purchase the song I have selected, or others that I find. When I select the "buy song" button I get the following message:
"iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. An unknown error occurred (-9807). Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
Network connection is active. I can begin a new search and certainly by submitting this my network connection is active. Anyone else have an idea for us ? There was a security update recently that I downloaded. I wonder if this has changed things. I have checked my KeyChain and repaired some discrepancy using KeyChain First Aid, but this did not resolve the issue. -
iTunes RADIO is not working.
“iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio. People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.

I am running Windows 7 (64bit) , and an error message appears following a recent update to iTunes v 11.1.2: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unknown error occured (-3212). Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I have dug a little bit into possible problems but haven't found a solution yet, one note is that the network connection is OK. A response would be highly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Since I upgraded my anti-virus software to Trend Micro 2013, I now get this error message:
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
My internet connection is working fine. I suspect it is related to my anti-virus upgrade.
Any ideas?Definitely try disabling anti virus software then try iTunes.

When trying to connect to the itunes store on my MacBook Pro, I get the following error message: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. An unknown error occurred (-54) Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
I've had the same problem for a month and yet I still cant get iTunes to work, I've heard different solutions but none have worked for me
This may or may not work for you but its worth a try even though it didnt seem to work for me, Good Luck!
Control Panel
Internet Options
Connections Tab
Click LAN Settings
Uncheck "Use A Proxy Server" -
when i try to open my itues it says "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The Network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, and try again"
I am having similar issues except that the store starts to load, then stops, then I only get iTunes Store in gray letters on a white screen. I can access playlist and the other stuff. Like flamesgirl, I contacted them and they just keep sending me links of stuff to try which I had already seen on the Apple website and nothing works. I posted the question on another forum I belong to and one responder said her husband was in an Apple store and asked about this problem as he was having the same issue. They said an update would be coming out soon as they were aware of the problem. Who knows.

why i see this massegae? (iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. Make sure your connection is active and try again.)
Hey there Hannuj,
It sounds like you are unable to access the iTunes Store in the iTunes application. Based on the error message I would try the steps in the article here named:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes Store connection troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1527
Remove pop-up blockers
Some pop-up or ad-blocking programs may interfere with the ability of iTunes to connect to the iTunes Store. Removing them in many cases will resolve the issue.
Flush DNS Setting in Windows
In some cases, the DNS information you computer uses to connect to the Internet needs to be reset. Follow these instructions to flush your Windows DNS information:
Windows XP
On the Start menu, click Run.
In the Open field type cmd and click OK.
In the resulting window, type ipconfig /flushdns and press Return on the keyboard.
You should see a message that the DNS Resolver Cache has been successfully flushed.
Windows Vista and Windows 7
On the Start menu, point to All Programs > Accessories and then right-click Command Prompt and chooseRun as Administrator from the shortcut menu. If Windows needs your permission to continue, clickContinue.
In the resulting window, type ipconfig /flushdns and press Return on the keyboard.
You should see a message that the DNS Resolver Cache has been successfully flushed.
Note: If, in the command prompt, you see this message: "The requested operation requires elevation", close the command prompt and repeat steps 1 and 2 above to be sure that Administrator privileges are used to access to Command Prompt.
