Trying to download music from iTunes, message keeps popping up. 

No, there isn't an 800 number. Close down your iTunes program and restart it. You can also check for purchased music:

  • ITunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network conect timed out

    I am having trouble with iTunes,
    Message: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network conection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active then try again."
    Im not sure when exactlt this happend, it may have been after i downloaded an iTunes update, but I cant be sure. Other than that nothing else has really changed. I have now had this problem for a couple of weeks.
    I am running windows Vista (32 bit System)on my HP Laptop and have ADSL and am able to run explorer and all other non-apple software.
    I have tried all other advice offerd in the various supports:
    1. re-installed iTunes
    2. Checked all firewall settings - even removed Norton security (currently just operating on windows Visat security and have checked all that)
    3. changed "host" file to "back-host"
    4. played around and tested various internet settings
    I hope this information helps to solve the problem. I have also recently found some other information which may be useful:
    Although I do not use "safari" as an internet explorer, this does not work on my system either. I have re-installed this to see if it helps but am still unable to connect to the apple store (home page) on safari. I have looked up the support site for safari but have thus far be unable to find any helpful information to solve the problem.
    Please help this is very frustrating...
    Many thanks in advance!

    Have you disabled any firewall and security/antivirus programs?  This seems to have helped the vast majority of people who have posted the same problem in this forum.

    I am having similar issues except that the store starts to load, then stops, then I only get iTunes Store in gray letters on a white screen. I can access playlist and the other stuff. Like flamesgirl, I contacted them and they just keep sending me links of stuff to try which I had already seen on the Apple website and nothing works. I posted the question on another forum I belong to and one responder said her husband was in an Apple store and asked about this problem as he was having the same issue. They said an update would be coming out soon as they were aware of the problem. Who knows.

    Thanks so much for more direction. 
    I realized that I bought this iPod T4 about a year ago, so decided to check the date and it is still under the 1 year ltd. warranty until 21 Dec.  I contacted Apple via Chat and was informed that the problem may lie in the version of iTunes I was running 10.7.  Today Apple released v. 11 of iTunes which I was instructed to download.  It's TOTALLY different from iTunes 10.7 - drastically different in fact. 
    The Apple Chat Rep set up a phone call appointment forl 8:00 pm ET tonight where another Rep will call me to make sure the restore was accomplished OK.  With v. 11 of iTunes I can't even find the restore option!!!  The phone Rep will have to help me navigate v. 11 of iTunes.  It doesn't seem intuitive at all.  Maybe it's just me?!?!
    Thank you for sending this new link for firmware.  It's not clear to me right now whether I'll need it or not.  The phone Rep will probably somehow be able to resolve the problem.  If not, they'll probably send me to the nearest Apple store if the problem is hardware, as it would be covered under the warranty.  I will give another update as to what transpires as a result of the phone call with the Apple Rep.
    Again, thank you so much for helping me.

    I have Windows 7 and after going through several suggestions, the one that worked for me was this:
    A Dell service representative removed an expired version of McAfee and a half *** version of Norton Antivirus (problem #1: I should only have one functioning virusware up, not two or more)...I then purchased a reliable Antivirus + Cleaner from the Dell rep and he installed it.
    The Dell rep then noticed that when he checked my computer properties, I had the following:
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.
    Service Pack 1 <I WAS MISSING THIS PARTICULAR ITEM; THE DELL REP ADDED THIS>
    Once the Dell rep did this, I was able to access my iTunes Store and get things updated from 10.5 to 10.6....It took 2 hours, but glad it got done.

  • I Tunes Store is giving me a message stating that: "i Tunes could not connect to the I Tunes Store.  The network connection timed out..."   I have internet but iTunes

    I have contacted Express Lane support but they couldn't help per se.  The info provided didn't resolve the problem 
    I have internet but iTunes Store and Safari will not connect.  Apparently the last contact I had with the store via my PC was on December 6th. Around that time I did install AVG Anti-virus 2012 and I have been reading threads over at AVG and it looks like AVG and Apple may be pointing at each other as the problem.
    I need to upgrade to OS5 in order for my Apogee Jam to work properly - or so I've been told (no sound coming from my iPad2 or headphones).
    I updated i Tunes Stores to 10.5.2.11. 

    same prob here.something is wrong. cannot connect whatsoeve.
    re-installed.checked firewall. all is fine.net working fine.but app store continuosly shows above err.
