Apple TV keeps telling me can't access itunes store.  Try again later

I have had this problem for a while. I can get all my itunes stuff on to my Apple TV, including photo, downloaded movie, youtube and trailers, but everytime I try to rent a movie, that line comes up! Somebody please help. I'm not increibly computer literate and have an Airport with a Dell laptop. I just want to be able to rent a movie or two. By the way, I am signed on to itunes and show my account balances and everything. Thanks in advance. Joe

It sounds as if your Apple TV is not connected to the internet, just to your laptop. How do you connect the laptop to the internet? If its not via a wireless router to which your Apple TV can also connect or you have not enabled internet sharing on your laptop, you will not be able to rent movies on the Apple TV.

  • Each time I go to click sign in, OR create account, it keeps telling me "an error has occured, please try again later". Can someone give me a step-by-step on how to fix this problem. Trying to redeem a $15 gift card!

    Each time I click on "sign in" , OR EVEN "create a new account", it keeps giving me a message to some effect of, "An error has occured, please try again later." It also includes some four or five digit number in parenthesis. I've tried to fix this but have no clue how to remove the error message and proceed. Can someone please give me a break-down of how to fix it? I need to redeem a gift card, and also obviously want to have access to purchase other items. Thanks.

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • I can't access Itunes Store from my computer (windows 7) - Itunes 11.1

    I always get the same error message: Itunes Store is temporally unavailable. Try again later.
    I've tried ALL "troubleshoot issues in Windows" from apple support, but I still can't access Itunes Store on Itunes 11.1.

    Vague.
    What have you tried?
    What happens?
    Error message?
    Any info?

    Hi all
    i am trying to access iTune store but keep on getting message "cannot access iTune store" i have reset my password several times and it didn’t help. My apple ID has been confirmed as correct. what can I do next?

    I am having the same issue!  I see several people are having this problem, and I see there is no solution from Apple!  Why is it I only see problems on this site and never any solutions?

  • TS4268 I can't sign into iMessages. My apple ID works absolutely fine for FaceTime App store etc, but keeps telling me "An error occurred ant to try again" when I try to sign in to iMessages. Very frustrating

    I can't sign into iMessages. My apple ID works absolutely fine for FaceTime App store etc, but keeps telling me "An error occurred ant to try again" when I try to sign in to iMessages. Very frustrating. I've double checked all the settings but still can't sign in. Any sugestions?

    Try this - sign out of your Apple ID and reboot the iPad, then try all over again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out.
    Reboot 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.
    After the iPad starts up, go back to the settings for Messages and FaceTime and your Apple ID, and sign into all three again.
    Sign into Settings>Store first

    You may think you are connected to the internet, but maybe not. Click on Safari and see if it connects.

    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.

    My apple TV keeps telling me to go to itunes to change the resolutions for quicker download---how do I do this after I have gone into itunes---where to next?

    It will say restoring apple tv but the progress bar will not move at all. I have left it running for six hours with no change. I get a 1602 error device not found after I unplug it to start over. My iTunes recognizes the device and tries to update it, but the same thing happens again.

    After upgrading to 11.0.5.5 can't access iTunes store. Temprorarily unavailable all the time. Nothing helps, tried to flash the DNS. Nothing.....

    Same issue.  I emailed apple and they had me call apple.  Not really any help.  Did all the troubleshooting listed and to have further help diagnosing problems it isn't free.  I explained to the rep that I have seen others having same issues - he didn't know anything about.  This is first time I have had problems.  I can't even purchase song on my PC but can on my iphone.  I just would like to be able to access my account.  Afraid to sign out of itunes in case I can't even get to my library etc.

    This is what iTunesStoreSupport wrote:
    the iTunes Store is functioning and accepting connections, which indicates that the issue is related to your internet connection, local network, or your local computer itself. This article outlines some of the likely culprits:

    Meanwhile, certain types of software can affect the way a computer sends and receives information from the Internet. Here are a few examples of these types of software:
    - Firewalls
    - Web accelerators
    - Ad filters
    - Virus protection software
    If you have any of this kind of software installed on your computer, Franka, you will need to configure each of the applications to allow your internet connection to access iTunes freely. For instructions, please refer to the documentation that came with that software, or contact the software's manufacturer. You'll need to configure the software to allow these domains to send and receive data from the Internet freely:
    itunes.apple.com
    ax.itunes.apple.com
    Moving on, for assistance in configuring your firewall or accelerator software, you may need to contact the manufacturer or your Internet service provider (ISP). When contacting their support representatives, it may be useful to have the following information:

    Nonetheless, please note that the iTunes Store cannot investigate every user's connection issue. Apple Support Communities are another source of information about iTunes, where everyone from new users to professionals can interact and share their knowledge and experiences.
