Cannot buy book from iphoto or use itunes music store

I cannot get a book to print from iphoto or access itunes music store through my school network. My school has a PC network, I am the only teacher to use macs in my classroom. I can access the music store through XP on parallels so I know the network connection is good. I believe the problem is a network setting either on my macbook or in our server. Our Tech cannot identify the problem. I just updated all applications to the latest versions.

Seems a Firewall issue on the Mac, perhaps this...

Cannot Print book from iphoto (network issue)

I cannot get a book to print from iphoto or access itunes music store through my school network. My school has a PC network, I am the only teacher to use macs in my classroom.

Bill:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That sound more that a networking issue that should be posted in the Tiger Getting Online & Networking forum. There will be users there that should be able to address your problem.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

I have rebuilt my iPhoto library and did rebot in Safe Mode.
Still the same issue.
I also tried it on my MacBook Pro, It freezes on there too.
I can click on the blue bullet points, but not on check out. I have to do a Force Quit.
Need these books for Christmas, Please Help!!

Did the test library work as it should have? If so then your current library is the culprit. So make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Why Can't I Download my Podcast from the iPhone's iTunes Music Store

Hi,
Newbie here and was hoping if someone could help me. I recently submitted my podcast feed at the itunes music store and is now currently searchable if i use my itune client on my Mac. No problem on subscribing and everything works great. Now when I search it in the itunes music store via my iphone, I can still search it, and it has 2 reviews but it seems that all episodes are grayed out. I can't do anything with it. I can't download it whatsoever.
Anyone out there with the same issues I'm having? Is it my feed or my phone?

i just tried subscribing, and when i do, i am unable to download any of the podcasts, nor am i able to listen to them in iTunes.
i was able to find your podcast in my iPhone, but i was not able to get it to download like i can with other podcasts.
sadly, as i have no experience on the admin side of podcasts, so i can not offer any advise, but i hope my information helps you troubleshoot!

Problem buying book from iphoto

After having completed my book in iphoto, when i click to buy the book the connection to Apple store does not work.
How can thi be fixed?
R Gosselin

You need at least iPhoto '09 (iPhoto v8.1).
see: Apple Photo Services: Product line details for books, cards, and calendars - Apple Support
The Apple Store does no longer sell this version. But you could try to buy an iLife '09 installer DVD from Amazon.
This version runs on your system, see: iPhoto 8.1.2 http://support.apple.com/kb/DL970?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Cannot order book from iphoto

I am trying to order books that i have created in iphoto 5 and when i click on "buy book" it goes through the assembling photose, but then just gets stuck on connecting phase and doesn;t go anywhere. i have let it sit in that phase for as long as overnight and it still doesnt work.
please help!

This can happen quite often, i don't think it is any of your hardware or cables that is affecting this. From my experience, i occured the same problem so i just thought i'd leave it because i wasn't to bothered anyway. But then weeks later i thought i'd give it a go and it worked fine and i recieved my album a week later.
It should work if you just 'forget about it' for a little while. I don't not believe there is a specific answer to why this occurs.

Cannot buy books from ebooks

I am unable to purchase books from ebooks, am repeatedly told they are not available

You can't currently permanently delete any itemsfrom your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they are less visible : uhiding and unhiding (hiding doesn't work on iOS 6, but you should still be able to hide things on your computer's iTunes)

Cannot buy book from aperture

Cannot create account when trying to buy an Aperture book.

Same issue ordering photo prints with error message
- Please try again later -
Solved as follows:
1. reset password (appleid.apple.com) according to Apple standards (i.e. they will let you know)
2. security question answers had to 6 characters or longer (oddly without saying so Apple...?)
Thats it. I really hate when things like this happens, you spend hours on blog sites when, really, I should be doing, well, something else..)

Cannot Purchase Book from iPhoto

I'm done working on my book and I wish to purchase it. I enabled 1-Step Purchase and I added another shipping address because this book is a gift for my girlfriend (Valentine's Day). But for some reason, when it is done 'Assembling Book', it informs me that my Account Information has changed and that I must review and approve of it. What does that mean? Did they charge me already?
Also, I went into my account information and made sure my information was correct. My billing info is correct as well as my shipping info.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Continued to persist, however, iPhoto finally came through. Going to receive confirmation email shortly.

No matter what I try - unable to use iTunes music store

My iTunes account info has my correct credit card info (expires in 2008) yet I keep getting an error message saying 'credit card is about to expire.' And that's not the case.
I emailed Apple and got their suggestion which included things like 'select NONE' in the credit card, log out, log back in and re-enter the information. I've done that a million times and still I am unable to use my active credit card to purchase music.
Yet I WAS able to do a gift iTunes certificate going through Apple's online store.
I have no idea why this problem persists. I'm using the latest iTunes, 10.4.7 - and nothing I've done makes it better.

When you cannot find what you want in the ibookstore for your country, the solution is to try one of the other sources that also provide free ereader apps for your device, like Kindle, Nook, Kobo, or Googlebooks.

HT4059 my iPad mini cannot download books from iTunes - help

my iPad mini cannot download books from iTunes - help

Hi, debikay45.
Test to see if you can download a free application from the App Store. If this was successful, test downloading the book again. Try closing all open applications and power cycling the device, test the results. Make sure you have an active Internet connection. If these results were unsuccessful, see the steps in the article below that refer to iOS.
Isolate the issue: (Mac OS X, Windows, iOS)
Make sure the issue is with the iTunes Store only. (You need an Internet connection to access the iTunes Store).Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for the iTunes Store. This also tests if the main ports 80 and 443 are accessible. If the website works but the iTunes Store does not, it is most likely a firewall blocking the iTunes software or servers. If this is the case, follow the steps in the "Blocked by software firewall" section below.
Test using another device.If possible, another device, ideally on a different network, would help troubleshooting any iTunes Store issues most efficiently. If another device on another network has issues, the iTunes Store may be undergoing maintenance, and will be available soon.
Test using another network.
Connect your computer or device to another network and testing helps determine the next step. This is also helpful if multiple devices are affected.
If your device can connect to Wi-Fi and a cellular network, larger downloads may not be possible over the cellular network.
If the issue disappears while connected to another network, you may need to work with your support options to open access to:
itunes.apple.com
ax.itunes.apple.com
ax.init.itunes.apple.com
albert.apple.com
gs.apple.com
ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net
mzstatic.com
Note: iTunes may use the fully qualified version of these addresses for additional security.
iTunes uses well known ports and these ports may need to be opened for iTunes: 80, 443, 3689, 5297, 5298, 5353, 8000-8999, and 42000-42999.
It is critical that your date, time, and time zone be correct:Windows:
Click Start and then click Control Panel.
Click "Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options" and then click Date and Time.
Click the Date & Time tab.
Make sure that the date and time settings are configured to use the current date and time and then click OK.
Mac OS X:
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
In System Preferences, click Date & Time.
Enable the option to "Set date and time automatically" if it is not.
Click the Time Zone tab and adjust the time zone to match your current location.
iOS:
From the home screen, tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
If the option exists, turn off Set Automatically.
Verify the time zone and time (in the status bar) are correct for where you are currently.
If not, adjust the incorrect setting accordingly.
If everything was correct and the option exists, turn on Set Automatically.
Remove any restrictions that may be causing the issue:
Windows:
It is recommended you use iTunes from an administrator account.
Refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.
You can also check using iTunes Diagnostics if you are recognized as an administrator by iTunes.
Mac OS X:
It is recommended you use iTunes from an administrator account. To become an administrator account, from the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
In System Preferences, click Accounts.
You may need to unlock the lock in the bottom-left corner of the window to make changes. If you can unlock the lock, you are already an admin user.
Under the account you are using, it may say "Standard." Enable the option to "Allow user to administer this computer" to make the user an admin account user.
From the Apple () menu, choose Log Out.
Log back in and return to using iTunes. Test to see if the issue is resolved.
iOS: Restrictions can limit your ability to purchase some content. Check restrictions via Settings> General > Restrictions if you're unsure about those settings.
After isolating the issue to iTunes by following the above steps:
If the issue still occurs and iTunes displays an alert message with a specific code, please see the section below titled "Specific Conditions and Alert Messages" for additional troubleshooting steps.
If the issue is still not resolved and there is no specific code or alert message, you can visit the iTunes Store Discussion Board to try to find additional information for help resolving your issue:
You can also contact AppleCare to discuss your support options. Depending on your product’s coverage status, you may need to pay for support.
iTunes Store Discussion Board (Mac)
iTunes Store Discussion Board (Windows)
New routers or a new Internet Service Provider (ISP) may limit your ability to connect to iTunes Store. Let your router manufacturer or your ISP know about the ports and servers in this article and confirm that they are compatible.
