"Cannot connect to iTunes Store" when access from Video/Music

When I open "Video" or "Music" app and try to access iTunes Store from inside the app, the message "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" appears.  I have access to internet and still can download applications from app store.  Please help me fix this.  Thank you.

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.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

    Devices show 'Cannot connect to itunes store' when try to purchase via device. However able to purchase via computer therefore password is correct. I purchased a rental film yesterday via ipad so this has just occured today. I've tried rebooting both devices and re sincing with itunes, but the problem remains. I back up via computer not icloud if this makes a difference, which it shouldn't. Any ideas??

    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. 

  • HT1222 I get a "cannot connect to iTunes store"when I try to retrieve updates on my iPad 2.

    I get a "Cannot connect to iTunes Store"whenI try to update my Apps from the Apps icon. I am more than totally clueless.  Help please.

    Try rebooting your router first. Unplug it for 30 seconds and then plug it in again. Reboot your iPad as well.
    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.

  • My ipad2 says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when updating apps

    My iPad2 says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when updating apps.  Connects properly when buying apps or music - only problem is when updating.   I have tried all the suggestions that I have found:  soft reset, ensuring that restrictions, changing my apple account password, turning on automatic downloads.
    Any ideas?  Thanks much.

    Same here. I have an iPad2, IOS5 WiFi and the iPad can not connect to iTunes store from Videos and Itunes App.
    App Sore is OK, and Safari also where connection is ok.
    My computer, Windows 7/64 connects via iTunes utility ok.
    I upgraded to IOS5 the same day as I got the iPad2, and I am not sure if it worked before.
    Any solutions to this problem ?
    It looks like that many other users have similar problem.

    You need to have a data connection. Tap Settings App > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Then in Settings App make sure Data is ON, or if you want make sure WiFi is ON.

  • After iOS6 update, It says cannot connect to iTunes Store when I try to go to the app store.

    After iOS6 update, It says cannot connect to iTunes Store when I try to go to the app store.
    How do I fix this on my iPhone 4S?

    Same phone and ios, same problem. Worked just fine for me Sunday, but nothing today, all day. As a workaround I found I can still connect using iTunes on my Macbook Pro, the I synch my iPhone. There are way too many people with the same problem for it to be anything but Apples problem. Hope this helps.

  • My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update

    My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update apps.  How can I resolve this?

    I had the same problem and tried absolutely everything...on my own and stuff I'd read on-line.  Nothing worked.  What finally did was this.  I held down an app until all started jiggling.  Then I deleted one of the ones that needed updating.  Then pushed the round button at the bottom of the iPad to stop the movement.  Then went to the "Featured" section of the App Store.  In the search box (top right corner) I typed in the name of the app I'd just deleted.  When it pulled up, I chose "Install".  Worked perfectly.  I went through this process, one-by-one, until I got all of them done.  Now, everything is updated. 
    Sure hope this helps you and hope this isn't the new norm for how to do updates.  I used to just select "Update All", entered my password, and the updates started happening.
