Itunes music store is not working

Ok.......... I tried to download music from the music store, but this message came up "iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. The Network connection has timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct andyour network connection is active, then try again."
Th efirewall is not the problem, I checked already.
Can somebody please help?!

Can someone help me, i dont want to start a new thread as i usre this could be a common problem.
Ok so when i launch the itunes store (windows) i can able to search manually in the field in the top right but i cant click on any of the links in the muic store homepage.
Its quite fustrating as I have to type in manually the name of the song or artist as oppose to browsing in the store.
Has anyone else experienced this? I tried to re install it but that didnt have any effect. PS This has only started happening within the last week or so. What could it be?

  • Want to access iTunes music store but not in a 'valid' country

    Hi, I'd really appreciate any help anyone can offer. I want to be able to buy music and videos for my new iPod and I have registered online. When I go to buy something with my credit card from the iTunes store, apparently you have to have an address for your credit card and a list of country's excluding Australia comes up. The problem is there is only about a dozen countries on the list and mine is not one of them so I can't pay by credit card. What can I do???

    I really wish I was informed when I bought my ipod, that Itunes music store is not available in NZ and we don’t know when or IF it is going to be. Am feeling totally ripped off as one of the reasons I bought my ipod on Sunday was so I could download Audio books off itunes for when I am travelling. Now I go online and find out that I cant even download a measly single let alone a audio book.
    Was feeling so excited about having my ipod and now just feel ripped off and extremely disappointed with Apple and the Apple salespeople. You are told how great itunes is and how you can download video, songs, books etc (when you are buying your Ipod) then once you have paid you $579+ (just for the ipod, let alone another $300 on accessories and warranty) you find out you can't download anything from itunes. Am pretty disgusted really! I researched my purchase, was going to go for a CREATIVE merely so could access NZ download sites, but was talked out of it by the sales person who showed me itunes and how great it is and I do think the IPOD itself is fantastic but wish I had of bought that CREATIVE so at least then I could have downloaded songs; books etc immediately. Bad Form from Apple, particularly given the amount of money I just spent :(((

  • My iTunes Music Store Won't Work

    My iTunes music store won't work. Ever since I tried upgrading my iTunes, the music store cannot connect. I don't think it is the iTunes itself because I have talked to people and theirs is working fine. Mine worked until I tried to update it. I tried to re-upgrade it but it still won't work.

    It's working for me now. If it's working for you too then ignore the next step else go ahead and give it a try.
    I uninstalled quick time and then itunes.
    Restarted the machine and re-installed the latest update.
    This works! Good luck.

  • Itunes music store is not yet available in your country?

    I get a message stating "itunes music store is not yet available in your country" whenever I log into the Itunes music store. I'm in the USA and my System Prefs, Date and Time/timezone, and credit card/user info on my itunes account all have my correct location.
    Also, when clicking on specific TV show icons, itunes shuts down.
    any help with either of these?

    Check at the bottom of the main store page & make sure you are set for the US store. If not, just click on the drop down by the flag icon & make the change.

  • ITunes music store is not available in your region

    I live in Jersey, Channel Islands and I am trying to create a music store account.
    However, I am getting an error message after I submit my details: "The iTunes Music Store is not available in your region"
    My ID shows the country as UK.
    Can anyone help?

    Sorry, but there is no iTunes Music Store for the Channel Islands. Though the Channel Islands are nominally under the auspices of the UK, legally they're separate entities, so the UK licenses for the iTunes Music Store don't apply and the record companies will prevent Apple from allowing you to purchase. Unless you have a legal residence in the UK (or some other country) and have a credit card with a billing address in that country, then you're out of luck, at least for now.

  • ITunes 6 Music Store account not working with iTunes 7 Music Store - help!

    I have an account with both the apple site (for here) and for the itunes music store (and i have a current credit card on my account). when I upgraded to itunes 7, it says i do not have an account now....even tho it says to use your apple login (which i've always used to download things from itunes music store), it comes back and says i have no account....
    why is this happening? is this a bug? if you have to recreate the account, shouldn't they have said something oremailed something to tell me that/????

    login to apple's myinfo page and see what your actual Apple ID is. You have to enter whatever your Apple ID is into iTunes when you try to sign in.

    If you can't login to myinfo, then you've got an account ID or password issue. (in which case use iforgot http://iforgot.apple.com )

  • TV Shows from iTunes Music Store will not sync with my iPod

    I have a video iPod (5th Generation). I just downloaded some videos from the iTunes music store and they will not sync with the iPod. I get the message "...some videos cannot be played on this iPod."
    The error log says that the videos are not in a supported video format. How can that be? I purchased these from the music store.

    This is actually the iPod nano (3G) forum. You might get better help, faster by posting in the iPod "Video" forum: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=157

  • Itunes music store still not available in AUSTRALIA

    I was so excited to watch the October 12 video stream and was sitting on the edge of my seat when I saw the ipod video revealed before my eyes, i was so excited I logged on and bought one straight away forgettign why I originally started watchign the video stream. i started watching originally to see if Steve Jobbs would announce music store available in Australia. Act I, Act II, Act III, one more thing and the finale and encore came and went. I was so shocked that after all this time Australia still does not have access to purchase music and now video and TV programs. Would somebody care to comment. I have written 5 letters to Apple and of course there has never been a response from the company. I am sure I am not he only one there must be more voices who would like to comment...

    I read sometime back that they were in negotiations with the music labels for an iTunes Music Store in Australia but some labels as you may know are now insisting music downloads be more costly than 99 cents to which Steve Jobs has replied that they are getting greedy.
    Apple has been trying to reject a price increase and as they will have to renew existing agreements soon with labels for countries in which there is already an iTunes Music Store that will likely also be an issue in future to be resolved. I don't think there will be an iTunes Music Store launch for Australia till negotiations with music labels are completed.

  • ITunes Music Store will not allow me to connect

    I have been trying to connect to the music store since I got my iPod last week. I have been using iTunes for a long time and I have always been able to connect to the store. When I installed the new software that came with my iTunes the store stopped working. I have stopped all anti virus, firewalls, security and anything else that has been recommended in other posts. I opened windows/system32/drivers and that was not the problem. I contacted apple and they gave me troubleshooting problems that didn't work, as I've tried them a million times. I also pinged phobos.apple.com and it says connection timed out 4 times and said information lost. So I don't know what else to do. I have windows xp with sevice pack 2 (which had been ruled out as the problem, I gurantee it), norton security (not the problem, I've disabled it and iTunes is allowed, nor is windows firewall the problem) and I can connect to the internet. The specific error message I am getting is iTunes cannot connect to the music store, network connection has been reset. make sure your network connections are active and try again. I just got a giftcard and I want to use it....any suggestions that aren't already all over every thread in the discussions?
    Thanks a lot!

    I would first check your firewall settings, as well as your security software to make sure they are not blocking the Store connection.

  • Music store will not work

    When I open iTunes everything will work fine. But when I click on the music store an error message comes up that says "iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. An unknown error occured (403).
    Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    The only major change I can think of is I just added Avast! (a security program) to my computer. I have reinstalled iTunes and added the reccommed pages to Avast!'s acceptable list.
    Any help would be appreciated

  • Music Store URL not working

    Hi, my podcast just got approved but I edited the XML feed to include episode album art (which didn't show up) and now the music store URL won't work (it says it's not available in the US store). When I search for my podcast, however, it's still there.
    How can I make changes to submitted feeds without messing up the URL? Thanks.

    I think I am having a similar problem. I edited my xml document to include a new episode. I copied and did everything verbatim, but not the itunes store won't find the URL for the new episode.
    Did you figure it out? Appreciate any input.

  • Music store is not working.

    Every time I try to get into the music store, this message appears:
    "iTunes could not connect to the music store.
    Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    I tried the c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc. thing but that didn't work.
    I have not altered anything or deleted any programs since I got the computer. That was a long time before I even thought about getting an Ipod. What really confuses me is that it was working just fine till about a month ago when it suddenly decided to quit.

    Usually, it has something to do with your firewall/router setup.
    Did you install anything or mess with the settings recently?

  • Selecting buy in iTunes Music store does not bring up Apple ID login

    When I choose the Buy button to purchase a song in the Music store, nothing happens.

    Hi LindaMW,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I would suggest signing out of your iTunes Store account from within the iTunes software.
    Then sign back in.
    The instructions on how to do that are in the article below:

  • Safari/Youtube/iTunes/App Store All Not Working

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 3GS and today all of the software that required the use of the internet just stopped working.
    Safari, YouTube, iTunes, and the AppStore all do not work. I click on one of these four icons, it pops up for about five seconds, then it goes right back to the home screen.
    I tried shutting off my phone. Didn't work.
    I tried reconnecting it to iTunes itself. Didn't work.
    I reset my network connections. Didn't work.
    I erased my History, Cache, and Cookies. All that did was make it so that when I click on Safari, my Bookmarks come up. The internet still doesn't work.
    A friend of mine has a theory that these "apps" aren't working because of the snow/rain/ice storm I'm currently in the middle of and that once it blows over, my internet should work again.
    My WiFi and 3G work.
    I'd like to avoid resetting my phone to it's orginal settings if that's possible.
    My most recent update is the 4.2.1 update.
    To any and all who can help or offer some suggestions, thank you very much.

    Thank you for your help though.
    You tried resetting all settings on the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings?
    There is no reset in iTunes, are you stating that you did a restore? If you did a restore, did you restore as a new device or from your backup?
    What you describe sounds like an issue in the settings of your device. If you have not already, restore as a new device.
