Another: 10.5 cannot connect to iTunes Store - details below

Hi,
I too am unable today to connect to the iTunes store after updating to 10.5.  I was running 10.4 ok after performing the following.
There is simple solution for that case (forWindows 7, 64):
1. C:\ProgramData\Apple\Installer Cache\AppleApplicationSupport 2.0.1
2. Right click
3. Uninstall
4. C:\ProgramData\Apple\Installer Cache\AppleApplicationSupport 1.5.2
5. Right click
6. Install
7. Restart Windows
I have uninstalled ALL Apple products, turned OFF Norton 360, redownloaded a new copy of 10.5 and reinstalled with no success.  Running Win 7 64 with all updates.
I am ready to purchase the new iPhone 4S to work with this computer but......
Thanks in advance for any and all advice.
Eric

I had same problem with my  iPad..  Try these links for useful info. The "netsh winsock reset" command worked for me but I have Win XP  32.

    I've turned my iPad off, then on again, I've logged out of iTunes, and logged back in, I've updated my credit card information, but nothing seems to be working. Is this a problem within the app?

  • Getting "cannot connect to iTunes store error from one appleID but another works fine

    I have 2 apple ID's, a personal one, and one that me and a couple of coworkers share so that we can share apps we purchase.  I cannot log into the shared AppleID from my ipad.  I can from my PC so I know it is not an incorrect password or anything like that.  I get the error "cannot connect to iTunes Store".  Is this because too many of us are logged into the same apple ID at once?  I tried changing the password so that it would kick everyone else off, but even with a new password I get the error.  I am able to login with my personal apple ID just fine, so I know it's not an issue with my wifi or my ipad software (i don't think).  anyone else experienced this and found a solution? 

    Hello 66ladybird88,
    I understand you are trying to access the iTunes Store on your Windows computer but are getting an alert with the number 0x80092013. There is an article that address this kind of alert and has some great troubleshooting steps for resolution. I understand the alert in the article is slightly different than the one you are getting but I recommend the same steps listed.
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123
    Resolution
    The cause for these issues is a program that monitors the Winsock protocol for Windows conflicting with Apple software. These programs usually use a Layered Service Provider (LSP) that can help identify the particular program installed. The programs that monitor this protocol have a variety of purposes, including security software, content filtering, and optimization of network traffic.
    Thanks for reaching out,

  • HT1689 I keep getting the error: Cannot connect to ITunes Store. I recently updated the iOS on the ipad3. Have tried heaps of fixes as suggested in various threads. DNS, date and time, reset etc

    I am a fairly new apple user, just got the new ipad, as part of an evaluation program. I recently did an iOS update and now keep getting the error message:cannot connect to iTunes Store... I tried date changing - no good ... The only thing that worked was to change the DNS setting to 0.0.0.0 as described in another thread. This fix for a day and now still getting the same error message and DNS setting changes do nothing. I have tried the reset method several times to no avail. I'm beginning tho think the ipad wasn't a great idea.... Apple need to attend to this. Like many, I have already wasted too much time looking for a fix. I am part of an IT in education group that will soon be recommending a specific hardware and OS. Could result in the loss of thousands of ipad sales for apple ....
    Anyhow... All or any suggestions are welcome :)

    Also, I've just learned that I can connect to download new apps, but cannot update any apps I've downloaded in the past. How might I go about connecting my reset apple ID with its history from before it was reset? I assume that is the biggest issue.

  • HT4623 My IPad will no longer connect to Itunes store. I get error message "cannot connect to Itunes store".

    When I try to connect my IPad to ITunes store, I get a message "cannot connect to ITunes store".

    Hello, Darktowerfan1. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here are a couple articles that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue. 
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • Can no longer download apps, constantly get "cannot connect to iTunes Store"

    Can no longer download apps, constantly get "cannot connect to iTunes Store"
    Can connect to iTunes, Safari, Google et etc. No issue with our wifi/network, we also have another iPad which fas no problem downloading apps.

    Try syncing your iPad with your computer, that way it can update its version of iTunes.

  • "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" & "iTunes store temporarily unavailable"

    PROBLEM:
    Our iPhones, iPad, and iPod Touches all give us "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" message when we try to purchase an App or update Apps using Apple's "App Store" App. When using iTunes on our MAC desktop, which is used to sync all our devices, I'd select "Check for available downloads" from the Store Menu and would recieve the error message "Unable to check for available downloads. The iTunes store is temporarily unavailable. Please check back later." All our devices and software were up to date. We had not upgraded to iCloud yet, allthough I don't think that matters.
    Note:
    - We were able to purchase songs on iTunes and access our iTunes account so we had access to iTunes Store, despite the misleading error messages. We just couldn't get the Apps to download or update.
    - This happened whether I was on my iPhone using our password protected WiFi, the non-password protected WiFi at the local Apple Store, as well as when I turned WiFi off and used 3G.
    I spent hours trying every solution offered on these discussion boards as well as an on non-Apple sites to no avail. I went to the local Apple store and after an hour and a half wait had someone at the Genius Bar check it out and say he couldn't fix it. I emailed Apple Help on this website and received a boilerplate reply pointing to 2 KBs that I'd already tried (support.apple.com/kb/TS1368) and (support.apple.com/kb/TS1398). When I replied I tried all that, and still needed help they pointed me to Apple Care. My husband called Apple Care who wouldn't talk to us because supposedly you can only purchase it during a window of time after buying your new device. Our iPad is the youngest at only 4 months old, so I don't know how that can be. Maybe he didn't want to pay for it just yet. I was ready to chuck these into the trash until my husband figured it out.
    So... if you're experiencing the same error messages, here was our fix. In hindsight it's so simple I can't believe it.
    SOLUTION:
    Went to the MAC desktop that we use to sync and update all our devices. In iTunes in the left hand column under "Store" click Download. The app at the top of the queue was "stuck" (similar to a printer that won't print because of a problem with the first job in the queue). Click the first App in the queue to get it downloading. That's it!
    Once they all chug through then you can start updating apps on your devices using the App Store app. Relief!
    I hope this helps someone because it was a frustrating experience!

    I had this exact issue.  However, I was not even able to "see" the pending downloads when I tried fixing them using the solution above.
    In another thread, I saw that someone mentioned an issue with the use of the "&" (ampersand) symbol in your appleID information.  I had recently changed my name and it did include the & symbol in my name (not the appleID itself).  I replaced the ampersand with the word "and" and saved.  I then went to the iTunes store and logged into my account there and made the same change on my billing name.
    Voila!  I could now access the 7 pending downloads on my desktop Mac and download them, and all iPhone/iPad/Ipods were again able to download from the app store.
    incidentally, I had several support tickets open on this issue and never once did the Apple person even suggest that this might be the issue. 

  • Please, help me with the ''Cannot connect to iTunes store'' problem

    The same common problem can't be fixed .. I tried every possible solution, none of them worked.I tried changing date and time, reset network settings.None of them worked with me
    Please help me to solve this problem

    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.

  • HELP! when I click on App Store from my desktop, I get an error message: "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". What does this mean?

    After I get the abovemention error message, the only option I have is to click "OK". Doing that gives me a white blank screen with the only option to "Cancel". Clicking on that brings up an Update screen to update an app I never downloaded. What's going on? How do I get rid of this?

  • TS1368 All I am getting at the moment is cannot connect to iTunes Store won't let me connect to game centre either

    Cannot connect to iTunes Store how do I combat this to update apps and sign back in to game centre

    Have you jailbroken either of these devices? Have you used the computer you are trying to update with to jailbreak a device? Have you tried using another computer to do the update? You may have to make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have the device checked, or send the device off to Apple care.
