Access iTunes Store on Apple TV?
can i access iTunes for new music selections or only for movies?
the new appletv only gives access to movies (various countries) and tv shows (USA only) in the itunes store.
you cannot buy anything on the new appletv, you can only rent content.

Cannot Access iTunes Store on Apple TV2 after purchase
Hello,
I cannot access iTunes Store on apple TV2. I purchased a movie, but when i got to watch it after it shows up as "Rented" it just sits at the screen "Accessing iTunes Store". Never times, out or produces error message. Internet is working fine, my account is fine.
If i launch an iTunes Store Trailer, it plays fine. Just my rented material does not play. Also, my Netflix account does the same thing from Apple TV2. While accessing Netflix on my laptop there is no problem. ***!Having exactly the same problem. I have completed a reset, rebooted all my equipment and completed a software update, but after I have purchased 2 movies, and have them appear as "rented", I cannot get them to load without waiting a hour. Then, if I leave the movie, I have the same problem all over again. I also cannot access the iTunes store.

I have windows 8.1 and cannot access itunes store even creating a new apple id. With other users on the same computer I can access itunes store. How can I solve this?
i had the same problem before using a fresh install of Windows 8.1. I have resolved this issue by running the program compatibility wizard. This I did by right-clicking on the iTunes icon in the desktop, selecting Troubleshoot compatibility, waited for it to detect compatibility issues and when presented with the following options: 1.) Try recommended settings; 2.) Troubleshoot program, I chose the latter. When asked what problems I noticed, I checked the following: "The program worked in earlier versions of Windows but won't install or run" and "The program requires additional permission"
After that, it tired to resolve the issue, and provided the necessary settings to run iTunes. Now it's running flawlessly. I have Avast anti-virus installed though.

I've tried everything but can't access iTunes store from my ipad. Apple ID is fine and logged in to iTunes on pc. Still no luck. Anyone any other alternatives? Thx.
You may think you are connected to the internet, but maybe not. Click on Safari and see if it connects.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Help. I recently downloaded the latest software update for on my Apple TV (per the prompt Apple TV gave us). Ever since downloading the update, we cannot access movies, play movies, or access iTune store. We can play YouTube videos so the problem is not related to the connection. It happens only when we are trying to access Movies. Very confused. Our AppleTV was working fine until I did the new software update. Now this problem! Help!
re-add the shared lib

Apple tv not accessing itunes store
Have done an upgrdae on Apple TV firmware and now unable to access iTunes store..keeps sy try again later? any solutions here as I have had this for a couple of days
Answers can only be as helpful as the details provided. This does not give any one much to go on. Is ATV able to connect to Netflix, HomeSharing, AirPlay, etc? Any of the other services working? Are you using WiFi? Is so have you tried it using a wired connection? What does the network test tool under settings show?

Apple TV won't let me access itunes store
I type in my correct password but can't access itunes store. I have subscribed to itunes match an it works on my other devices.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
First you should try logging out of your iTunes Store account (settings > iTunes Store > accounts) and then back in again.
If that doesn't help, try resetting the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings). You should also try restarting your router.
If both of the above don't help, you should try a restore (Settings > General > Reset > Restore). -
Hi,
I have recently installed iTunes latest version (10.5.1.42) on Win XP SP3.
The problem is, when accessing iTunes, It connects to the internet, I can sign in (It shows my username in sign in bar), But nothing is shown in the iTunes store window in iTunes. It shows "accessing iTunes store..." for few seconds and after that its blank with an apple logo inside the status bar.
ANU SUGGESSION???Sorry, no. The screen image you see is specifically saying you need to connect it to a computer. You could take it to an Apple retailer for help.

I can't figure out why my 1st gen appletv cannot access the itunes store. All newer movies are coming up to view and I can watch previews, but when I go to rent, it stays on the spinning wheel with the Accessing iTunes Store forever. I've left it going for at least 4 or 5 days. I can rent from my iMac, but all I have is the headphone, analog, 2-channel audio feed and not the true digital surround. It sounded much better from the appletv. HELP!
Read a bunch of posts from 2008 and 2010. The only step I found that I hadn't tried was the ol' plug pull. After that, I got the first movie I tried renting. ??? At least it works now.

"Accessing iTunes Store" box pops up every time I click on something new on itunes
When I open itunes it automatically tries to connect to the itunes store but the "connecting to itunes store" status bar keeps popping up even after it has connected. I'm unable to navigate the itunes store without this status bar popping up. I've updated to the latest version of itunes (currently version 10.3.1 for mac) and the same problem occurs.
I haven't had any luck with the itunes store after uninstalling and reinstalling the software. I've also tried to "deauthorize this computer" and then "authorize this computer" to try and fix the glitch- but everytime I try and sign into my account I get this message: "This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store". It then takes me to another screen to review my account. But when I'm brought to the new screen my session times out and I can't review anything.
I'm going around and around in circles and it's becoming very frustrating. Does anyone have any other possible solutions???
I'll give a step by step breakdown of what's happening..
I open the itunes store.
Accessing itunes progress bar at the top of the window loads the itunes
store and after it loads there is still a top window that says
'accesing itunes store' with a 'stop' button option which stays open
for aprox. 1 minute after page is loaded.
I sign in with my account and password.
A dialouge box appears that says, "This Apple ID has not yet been used
with the itunes store. Please review your account information.
cancel or review option boxes.
I click review.
Accessing itunes store progress bar appears in the upper part of the
window as well as in a seperate window box like before and this box
stays open after page has loaded like before.
The window box goes away and the window says, "Welcome to the itunes
store; To begin creating your apple id click continue".
I click continue.
A new window appears and says, "your session has timed out. Try
again". option to click a box marked 'done'.
...And this takes me back to square one.Did you ever resolve the question?
I have exactly the same complaint and your question has 338 views - which leads me to believe our question is not unique.
