Why im i getting "an unknown error has occurred" message when i sign into the app store

Im getting "an unknown error has occurred" message when i sign into the app store. I don't have a problem signing into anything else. What could the problem be?

Were you able to find a solution to this issue? I am also getting the 'an error has occurred' message when trying to download or update any apps on my iPhone. Restarted, updated, re-booted, etc etc, nothing has worked.

  • HT5007 Why when I sign into the App store it says unknown error?

    When I sign into the App store it says unknown error. 

    the support article for that error says to wait for it to reset your request and then try again, in the meantime verify your login information is correct (ie logging in at http://appleid.apple.com/)
    you can also goto Settings > store and log out of your apple id and log back in just in case

  • Why do I get a too many http redirect message when accessing top charts in App Store?

    When trying to access Top Charts in the App Store I get a message stating "too many http redirects". I don't get the message with featured apps, updates, etc., just top charts. How can I fix this?

    Yeah! Problem solved: It's a QT issue.
    Cause: Mac Update Software downloaded a faulty QT.
    Solution: Download QT from Apple's QT site.

  • Trying to download Maverick, and keep getting "an unknown error has occurred'

    Trying to install maverick, keep getting 'an unknown error has occured' message when I try to login to my apple account

    Just saw the post from makras.
    There are always a few problems with a new OS. Apple can't police every maker of crapware that's on the planet.
    If you have a WD external drive, I would transfer (not clone) the files from it to another non-WD external drive that doesn't have crapware on it, and then erase the WD drive, and then never ever again buy a WD drive.
    You will find many posts on the Apple Discussions from disgruntled narcissists (a few borderlines too) who blame Mavericks for their computer problems.
    Mavericks is excellent (at least for me).
    Every new OS has some incompatibilities with older software. That's why if someone is an early adopter, they should understand this, and if they have a low tolerance for frustration, or are uncomfortable with basic mac maintenance and troubleshooting, they should not be an early adopter.
    Seems like the vast majority of problems that people complain about on the forums are related to crapware they have acquired on their computers from previous installations and promiscuous downloading habits.

  • I am getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to download any free apps from my brand new 4GS iPhone

    I am getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to download any free apps from my brand new 4S iPhone.
    Please Help!!

    I had the exact same problem.  Worked fine for a couple days then suddenly getting this error.  I fixed it, however. 
    Do this:
    Open the App Store app on your phone.
    Go to the "Featured" section.
    Scroll to the very bottom of the page and click on your Apple ID.
    Screen pops up. Choose "Sign out".
    Scroll to the bottom of the "Featured" section again.
    Sign back in.
    Try your download again.
    This worked for me.  Good luck!
