ITunes and App Store not connecting with Apple id after iOS 8

After updating to iOS 8.0.2, I have tried updating apps and buying music but nothing happens on my iPhone 5 or my iPad. Can someone help with this? All it shows it the rotating circle saying it's looking or working or whatever but even after logging in with the Apple id nothing works. I can connect my phone to the computer and things update but still shows on phone/iPad after that I still need to update apps.

Hi ,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I am sorry to hear that you cannot connect to or download from the iTunes and App Stores. There are some very good troubleshooting steps that I would recommend in this situation. Please follow the steps and information in the article below.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Have a great day,
Joe

ITunes and App Store not accepting my Apple iD

I cannot sign in with my Apple iD on either application. I get an error message on iTunes after approx 2 mins saying "We could not complete your iTunes store request. The secure network connection was refused. There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later.".
I get a different message on App Store simply saying "Connection failed".
I'm running a MacBook with MacOS X version 10.6.8, with iTunes version 10.4. All my software is up to date. I've tried disabling the firewall in MacOS this makes no difference.
The username and password are correct for my Apple iD as i'm using it to post on the community board.
I am able to browse the stores but can't purchase anything as it requires me to sign in to purchase.
Both applications have worked in the past with this iD, but my last purchase was back in April, I don't buy too much, now I can't purchase anything anymore as it won't sign in.
Can anyone help me?

Why can't i open iTunes and App Store in Settings Menu on iPad Mini IOS 7.1.2?

Why can't I open i Tunes and App Store in Settings Menu on iPad Mini IOS 7.1.2?

What happens when you try?
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

ITunes and App Store not loading properly

I wanted to browse on the iTunes Store on my iPad. It opened but the screen was blank. Nothing came up even when it had fully loaded. This was the same with the App Store too. I have tried to restart it and reset it but its still the same. Is there any solutions to this?

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.
In the meantime ...........

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Itunes and App store not working

I recently had to back up my Mac due to an upcoming repair. I backed everything up on my husand's Mac. Once the repair was done, I transfered my account back to my Mac.
However, since then, I can't access the Itunes store or the App store. The error message I usually get is "iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “p8-buy.itunes.apple.com”." or something similar. I've cleared my Itunes store cache, repaired certificates with the Keychain utility, and am still getting the same result. My husband is as well on his computer.
I'm running 11.0.4 for itunes, Mac OsX 10.7.5.
How can I fix this?

These types of issues often occure due to incorrect Date, Time, or timezone settings.

ITunes not sending email notifications to iTunes and App Store gifts recipients

I sent several iTunes and App Store gifts from my Apple ID... I set the date to be sent of Dec 25. The gift recipients have not received email notifications about their gifts. I went into my iTunes account and resent the gift, but the people I sent gifts to are still not getting emails from iTunes. However I got the iTunes email informing me my credit card had been charged.

I'm having this issue as well. I was really hoping to surprise people on Christmas Day, really disappointed right now., doesn't look like anyone has got an email about the apps I gifted them.

ITunes and App store won't load

We have a user in our school district whose iTunes and App Store went down with a recent apple.com outage. However, her iMac never recovered when everything came back up. She has no trouble connecting on her iPad, but on her iMac she gets a "Cannot Connect to the App Store" when launching her App Store and just a blank page when launching her iTunes store. Occasionally we can get an "Error -1202" to generate on her iTunes store but it is not consistent. She is running 10.7.5 on a late 2011 iMac with all software up to date. We have tried everything from Keychain resets to deauthorizing the computer from her account. Nothing has helped. Anyone have any suggestions?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud. With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated. There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes and App Store on my iPhone? Nothing happens if I click buy for apps or music. If I then go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. If I then enter ID and password it does not save or link to account?

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes or App Store on my iPhone? When I try to buy apps or music it asks for Apple ID so I enter my info and nothing happens. When I go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. When I enter my ID and password it does not save or link to account. I do not have this problem with iPad ID is stored and can be used in App Store and iTunes. I have just upgraded to 5c and it's still a problem.

When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
Good luck.

ITunes and App store access after changing Apple ID.

Having changed country of residence recently, I changed my Apple ID. However, the old ID continues to come up on my iPad and asks me for my password. The ID has been closed and it will not accept either my old password or my new password under the new ID. It does work on my PC under the new Apple Id, but I cannot access, download or update any apps etc on my iPad.
When attempting to access the Apps Store it constantly comes up with a log-in using my old ID and will not et me change that ID. If I try to change the password using "Forgot password", it simply will not recognise the old ID as being a valid ID. The email address for the old ID is no longer valid or in use and that is why I chnaged my Apple ID rather than setting up a new ID.
Any help greatly appreciated

How do I turn off the Genius app in App Store. I've gone to Settings/Privacy/Location Services/System Services then swiped Genius for apps 'off''. Also, I've gone to Settings/ITunes and App Stores/Click on AppleID/View Apple ID and then turn off Genius.

How do I turn off the Genius app in App Store. I've gone to Settings/Privacy/Location Services/System Services then swiped Genius for apps 'off''. Also, I've gone to Settings/ITunes and App Stores/Click on AppleID/View Apple ID and then turn off Genius. Still nothing has worked. I'm still stuck with Genius offering the same apps to me. Mind you, once I click on the App Store there is nothing I can do but swipe left and right. There's absolutely nothing at the bottom of the screen like a features tab, nothing. There is, however, a categories button at the top, but that's it. Irrelevant.

FWIW, I just got off the phone with Apple technical support about this. I use Genuis for creating playlists, so I don't want to disable it, but Apple support confirmed that there is no way to avoid syncing Genius data without disabling Genius altogether. I'd read somewhere else that subscribing to iTunes Match might allow you to avoid this, but that is NOT the case, as I've confirmed, and Apple support has confirmed. For me, it routinely syncs thousands genius of items, so I have to allow a lot of time for my manual syncs.
