Hi mselden129,
The steps below will help you troubleshoot this issue:

Troubleshooting on a Mac
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store, a software conflict or your internet service provider (ISP) may be blocking your access.
Update iTunes to the latest version.
If you have a firewall, your settings may be preventing you from connecting to the iTunes Store. To configure your firewall, please refer to the "Blocked by firewall" section in this article.
You may need to reset your keychain. Connection issues are occasionally caused by keychain issues. Click here to find out how to use Keychain First Aid to resolve any issues with your keychain.

Hope this helps ....

  • Still can't get iTunes to open

    After help from this DB I uninstalled every part of my iPod Nano and iTunes from my computer, re-installed everything and still can't get iTunes to open. It thinks about it and then just doesn't open, doesn't run, nothing. I even tried going on iTunes on here and surfing around and can't get the Music Store to open. If I click on it, it opens for 1/2 a second and then flips back to the main page. Any thoughts? Sorry to be such a PITA. I'm just frustrated with a new iPod and no music.

    Okay, it seems I am not the only one with this problem. Sorry... did not see the other post until I typed this. But this is frustrating. Anyone know if I can use a later version and still use my Nano?

  • I can not get itunes to open on Windows 7...

    I just got a new iPhone and wanted to back up my old iPhone to my computer one more time before switching over...Two hours later I still can not get iTunes to open.  I have two different acounts on my computer, iTunes will load on the secondary account, but not my main account.  I logged into iTunes on that account and now have issues with libraries, and overriding and synching and deleting, and a million other messages that made me nervous about backing up my phone through the secondary account.  I just want to get iTunes to work on my main account.  I have tried several different things, and am getting incredibly frustrated.  Just in case I messed up a step of the "obvious" fixes, I would appreciate anything anyone could suggest to help   Thank you!

    Doublechecking. Have you tried the "User-specific troubleshooting" section of the following document?

  • How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers.

    How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers, but I don't know how I did it.

    For me, iTunes always opens to whatever I had selected previously when it was closed.
    In other words, if I had Apps selected when I closed iTunes, the next time I opened iTunes it would be on Apps.

  • Why don't my Itune store open in ITUNES?

    Why don't my Itune store open in my Itune.

    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 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • I have downloaded the ebooks, but why can't i click it open?

    I have downloaded the ebooks, but why can't i click it open?

    What do you mean, 'downloaded'? Take pictures where? Are you saying that you have an iPhone or iPad and you don't have enough memory for any more pictures? Adding the 10GB won't have any effect - it's extra space on the iCloud server for Documents, email, Contacts, Calendars and iPhone backup. You can't increase the memory on an iPad or iPhone by any means. If this isn't your issue please clarify what you mean.

  • Why can't I download or open tif attachments on my iPad Air and IPhone 5s in mail running 7.1.2?

    Why can't I open tif attachments on my iPad Air and IPhone 5s in mail running 7.1.2?
    Tap to Download icon flashes but does nothing.

    I just hooked this thing up to my computer and was able to load new apps and update via the app store that way, installing them onto the iPad via sync. Very annoying though as I cannot make in app purchases etc still.
    Wish apple wouldn't pull this kind of junk.

  • How can I stop Itunes from opening by itself?

    Itunes keep opening by itself and it's getting pretty irritating at this point. I haven't purposefully gone into it in days, but it keeps popping up and starting to play music anyway. I quit it every time, but then, sooner or later, the same thing happens again.
    I've done some searching to see if I could find any solutions, but the suggestions I've found haven't done anything. For one, I took "Itunes Helper" off of my "Login Items" under my account, but that didn't do any good. I also checked to see if I have any Itunes widgets running on the dashboard and I don't. I even disabled the Itunes widget. I've read that other programs could be opening it, but I don't have any new programs on my computer, so if this wasn't occurring before because of something else, I don't know why it would be now.
    This is kind of driving me insane, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Pure guesswork, but when I had problems with iTunes launching again and again, the reason were my external speakers. I simply had to unplug the speakers  from the line-out socket, and iTunes stopped launching on its own.

  • Can't get itunes to open

    i downloaded the updated software for itunes and i can't get it to open. I double click on the icon and it won't. i go to start and try to open it that way and it won't work. i don't get any type of error message...or any message at all. it just acts as if i'm not even clicking it. help!

    1. I do have Norton Anti-Virus 2005
    2. When i attempt to launch QuickTime, i get a message that says "Some of your QuickTime software is out of date. You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version." If I click the "Do it Now" button, it tells me that my software is already the latest version. If I click cancel, the message pops up again. If I hit cancel again, then QuickTime will launch.
    3. Yes, in Task Manager, iTunes.exe shows up for a few seconds and then disappears without iTunes loading.
    good gracious. you may have two different things going on at once here. (the particular QuickTime symptoms you're getting are not typically associated with an itunes error message free launch failure.)
    just doublechecking something first ... you're getting no error messages whatsoever when launching itunes? (my questions for wazzle were designed to sort through possible causes for error message free itunes launch failures.)

  • Can't get iTunes to open after upgrading

    After I downloaded the new version of iTunes (6.0.4) i couldn't get it to open. No matter what I do the application will not open. The iTunes.exe process shows up on my Windows Task Manager screen, but the application doesn't appear under the applications tab. I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling iTunes and repairing iTunes and nothing has worked. I've also tried downloading old versions of iTunes and they didn't work either. I've also tried turning off all of my anti-virus software and uninstalling then reinstalling it. All of my music is still intact, but I can't play it or use the music store because Itunes won't open. PLease help me get iTunes to open.
