"Unable to download item. Please try again later. "

Hello. After updating to iOS8, whenever i turn off and power my phone, I receive a pop-up "Unable to download item. Please try again later. " at first I thought it was an app gone rogue but in the appstore I did not see anything suspicious. After resetting and restoring my device the pop-up kept appearing. By mistake I discovered that if I open the iBooks app the pop-up appears every time. I hace never bought or downloaded any book from here, ever. Did you encounter this error? do you have any suggestions for Me?
thanks

A few potential possible problems I see (just thinking along all the bases we have to cover so far):
1) It might not be related to iBooks. (I haven't even used iBooks on my new phone and rarely used it on my previous phone.)
2) It might not be related to the U2 album.
3) It might be related to something we have not thought of yet. (About the only thing we all have in common is the problem and that we've either downloaded the U2 album or fiddled with iBooks, but the amount of people who have downloaded the U2 album and/or fiddled with iBooks is huge.)
4) There might not be enough of us experiencing this problem for Apple to even realize it exists.
I guess it must either happen because of the U2 album and/or because of iBooks, and/or something else entirely.
Did I miss anything?

HT204088 When trying to update an app, it partially downloads and then displays the message "unable to download item" Please try again later. This happens on any app I try. I have tried deleting the app and reinstalling with same results. What can I do?

I have the same thing happening on my iPod Touch 5th gen. Been happening for at least a month. I have updated to the most recent version of iOS which hasn't solved the issue. Must be a bug that they didn't get around to resolving yet, a year later. Really annoying to have it pop up when you are in the middle of a game though.

Currently unable to download content, please try again later

Starting yesterday whenever I try to create a package I receive the following error:
An error has occurred during download. Please try again later.
The error appears with a yellow exclamation point next to each of the titles included in a package. I also receive the error on machines that I have used to package previously and have caches of the programs already. Is anyone else seeing this issue?
Thanks.

Has Anyone experienced a problem with trying to install a new app or reload a purchased app? After I had upgraded my ipad to 6.01 started having problems with updating my apps. Kept getting unable to Purchase. Please try again later.

Any Help would be appreciated.

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.

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.

Okay, so I'm trying to download an album from the store on the iPod. It's telling me "Item is currently being modified. Please try again later." Its really starting to make me mad; Is there anyway to get rid of that message?

It's telling me "Item is currently being modified. Please try again later." Its really starting to make me mad; Is there any way to get rid of that message?
PS. The reason I'm downloading directly from the iPod is because the laptop that had my iPod synched to it crashed and the recovery disk didn't fix it. I don't wanna lose all my songs. :/

If it says it is temporarily being modified than you should wait until tomorrow or later tonight. If it keeps happening, try downloading something else. If it has the same message, it is probably a problem with iTunes on your iPod. If it downloads regularly, there must just be a problem with the album.
