Accessing iTunes Store since 2.1 update

I have a minor but annoying bug going on since I updated to the 2.1. I will first say that I have never had any significant even moderately significant problems with ATV before. So this is not a big problem but here goes...
Ever since the new update whenever I click on a movie page like "ALL HD" the ATV first spends about 10 seconds on the "Accessing iTunes Store" spinning logo page. Then the page does load, but I never had this happen before. Before the page would load fairly quickly. It's even more annoying when I'm on that page, move to another menu item (say "Top Movies") and then back to the ALL HD page- even if I was only on the Top Movies page for a few seconds the ATV will still go to the "Accessing iTunes Store" thing.
Any thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this? Is this just their servers still being overtaxed? BTW I rented a movie last night and it started in about the same time as before update, so not sure what the issues is.

K-Man, this is not just you. I have a Gigabit wired network and get 7.5 MB/s from my internet provider so I have a big pipe and fast download speeds. This "Accessing Itunes Store" is directly linked to the update and has nothing to do with overhwlmed servers (IMO). I have 3 ATV's in the house and 2 I updated to the latest release...they are having the same issues as you described below. The third ATV I have not updated and it works perfectly and never gives me the message "Accessing iTunes Store" and simply pops the cover art under each category instantly. I will add that a new "bug" is that once my cover art pops under "my movies" on the old firmware, it stayed in place and was instant no matter if I went to You Tube, Music, etc. Under the newest release everytime I go to another category and come back it take a good 3 to 5 seconds to pop that same movie cover art. While this is not a "major" issue like you mentioned, I am pretty peeved as adding new functionality should never be at the cost of "breaking" something. I hope we get a patch to this new firmware in a few days...

  • Can not connect the iTunes Store, since the last update 2 weeks ago, iOS 6.1.2 has stopped working, help me, please ....

    can not connect the iTunes Store, since the last update 2 weeks ago, iOS 6.1.2 has stopped working, help me, please ....

    Ok, I am having literally identical issues with Marathon Max.
    I try to connect, and it says, "Itunes could not connect to the itunes store, Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I have contacted my ISP, and they ran a full check, and sayed I should be able to connect to pretty much all websites. I did the whole "ipconfig" thing and that was no help. I also tried the "msconfig" thing, and it sayed it did not recognize it as any kind of command, internal or external command or operable program or batch file. Whats strange is I can connect from another computer just fine, but when offered to upgrade itunes I declined for fear of the same thing happpening. I am tempted to just upgrade it and thus demonstrate that itunes has a flaw in their upgrade. I will save this computers diagnostics, and the other one's too, before and after the upgrade. I look forward to sending more feedback regarding this matter

  • Have not been able to access Itunes store since 11 update (windows 7)

    I'm not getting any error messages. Whenever I attempt to log in, it just continuously says "Accessing iTunes Store". I've re-installed it, made sure the firewalls aren't blocking it and it still isn't working. It's only been happening since I updated to iTunes 11.

    This usually is caused by third party security software. It may have allowed the older version of iTunes connect but it now sees the newer version as different software and needs to allow access.

  • Can't access iTunes Store since Leopard upgrade!

    I upgraded my G4 Powerbook to Leopard and now I can't get into the iTunes Store. I repaired my keychain, I don't have firewall or accelerator software, I didn't change anything except my OS. There is no problem with my ISP (I checked with another G4 running Tiger). When I try to get into the Store, the dialog bar will just keep running, saying that it is accessing the iTunes Store, but no go, and I don't get any error message.
    So... Any advice?

    Hi Timmy Y,
    Can you explain further please ("directly connected")? I have EXACTLY the same problem, having this week bought a new MacBook, migrated everything over from my old 17" iMac, and found that everything works perfectly on the (new) wireless network except 1) downloading dotMac mail through Entourage, and 2) accessing my iTunes account.
    I can browse music in the iTunes store but when I try to log in to my account to either buy, or authorize my new computer, I get the "Accessing iTunes Store..." message forever.
    Any tips greatly received!
    Thanks
    Jamie

    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!

  • Can no longer access itunes store to update apps through itunes OR on iphon

    I just updated to the 2.2 software on the iphone. Ever since, any time I try to update an application (or even check for updates) I get a message saying itunes can't connect to the store, check my network connection, etc. I get the same problem if I try to check for updates directly from the iphone or from itunes on my computer. I see many people are having problems with the itunes store. I assume that since I am having the same problem on my phone and on my computer, and since so many other people are having problems, that this is some kind of problem with Apple and not with my set up. However, I have not seen anyone else mention problems connecting from their phone the way I am.
    Other than upgrading to 2.2 there is nothing different about my system - accept I did also try upgrading to the newest iTunes. The problem happened with version 8 and with whatever the current version is. I am using Vista - I never had any problem like this before.
    Any help or comments would be much appreciated.

    I am also having this problem, i can no longer search for app's updates through the latest release of itunes 8.0.2 and also the latest iphone 3g update version 2.2 - this has been going on for about 15 hrs now. If i try to update through my iphone the the page eventually times out or comes up with "unable to connect to itunes store"., If i try through itunes itself, the windows comes up with the progress bar type thing and accessing itunes store, then after a while just comes up with "iphone sync complete, Ok to disconnect" - but i'm not syncing my iphone i'm trying to update the apps.....
    Come on Apple get your act sorted out...

  • I can't access iTunes store on my Windows desktop since yesterday.

    I got a new Windows 7 allienware desktop this week, and I installed iTunes at the first time. I can access iTunes store via the software at the first day I installed, but I can't access iTunes store on my Windows desktop since yesterday. It always says there is a problem and I need to close iTunes when I try to access iTunes store. I tried to uninst all the related files of iTunes and reinstalled, but it still donesn't work. Now I can't download anything via my new desktop. What should I do to fix it?

    Looks like we are not alone...... Must be some problem with the software! Hope it can be solved soon!
