Firewall blocking access to app store

Anyone know how to circumvent a firewall blocking app store access (same for itunes) - I can confirm access when on a different network.

found http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1629 which give port number etc for itunes - which I assume as the same for app store

Hide the App store via Restrictions. See:
iOS: Understanding Restrictions

Access to app store blocked by app window

I need sotware, e.g. DivX, to run a video in my keynote folder but cannot access my app store to find it because a window for the last app I downloaded is superimposed on the app store window and I cannot remove it. See screen shot below.
How can I exit this window and how can I run a video in .avi format?

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

I have a mac desktop which is 10.9.1 since downloading Maveric. Now it is slower and cannot access the app store. What do you suggest?

How do I access apple app store. The doc icon bounce forever & when the page finally appears, it is just blank?

1. If you haven't already done so since this started, log out and log back in, or restart the computer. Then try again.
2. Otherwise, if you're using "LittleSnitch" or any similar third-party software that blocks outgoing network connections, remove or disable it according to the developer's instructions and test.
3. If possible, connect to a different network and test.
4. There are reports that resetting the PRAM may solve the problem in some cases. I can't confirm.

Why can't i access my app store on my iPod?

Why can't i access my app store on my ipod 4th generation? I click on it and it won't let me access my app, itunes, or any app like social media apps with internet, but I can still access my games that have internet. It confuses me and i dont know what to? I found it didnt work because i wanted to get a game one day that i saw people playing thought it was cool, and wanted to get it. It didnt work and said cannot connect to iTunes store. So i thought i was because i was at school and my school has a filter and it has been blocking alot since its really close to the end of the year, but when i went home and tried to get into it. It still didnt work. So if anyone knows how to help can you please help. Thank you .

Try this:
Quit all apps: Double tap the Home button, hold an app icon until it wiggles, tap for each open app, double tap the Home button again
then
Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)

My iPhone 4 cannot access to App Store using WNR1000v2

does anyone else have this kind of problem? i can use emails and Safari fine but when i tried to access to App Store it says 'your request could not be completed'
i am using Netgear WNR1000v2 as my AP
thanks

iphones do have issues with non-apple routers.. I do not exactly why but I would guess it is using some port or protocol that the AP is not allowing. Seldom happens with ethernet but is regular issue on wireless.
Is the Netgear is pure AP mode?? If so it would seem to be the fault.
See if there is a firmware upgrade from Netgear and report the problem to them.. but I doubt they are going to rewrite the firmware for iphones any time soon.
Still see if you can bypass the netgear.. do you have a MacBook you can plug into the router and bridge across to wireless. See if that can fix it.. if it also gets internet but fails on apps store then I suggest you check your main modem / router. Turn off any firewall in it and even bridge it if possible to the Macbook.
Even better borrow another modem router with wireless of the right type for your connection..
I am not sure how this is related to Time Capsules.. do you have one in there??

I cannot access the app store with my ipod 4g, can any one help me please?

For some reason i am unable to access the app store on my ipod touch 4g or even syn on the pc the app that i have down loaded. Please help me.

What happens when you try? Error message?
Have you synced apps from that computer/iTunes library? You can only sync apps from your one syncing computer.

I cannot access my app store after upgrading to Mac Os10.8.2

I have problem accessing to the software update or the app store. This all happen after i upgrade to MAc OS 10.8.2 and certain software upate. Now i cant access the app store. Everytime i click on it, it just bounce for a few second then stop. Another issue is 'finder'. I cannot access the download or my folder in 'finders'. Help....

Yes, if you can follow mcgerbs advice and re-install OS X. There isn't any archive & install selection in 10.8.
Boot up holding command-r keys into your Recovery Volume.
The screen should give you these choices...
Restore from TM backup
Reinstall Mac OS X
Get help online
Disk Utility
First run Disk Utility Repair Disk, if you get errors run until no errors reported or reports "the disk cannot be fixed". Then, choose Reinstall OS X. This will be an install "in place" and shouldn't effect any of your own data or settings.

HT1414 My Apple ID username on my iPhone4 is seemingly locked on an old, unseable ID when I try to access the App Store on the iPhone. Everywhere else it has been updated (itunes etc.). How do I get past this no longer useable email/AppleID?

The phone has been restored from settings from an old iPod Touch. The Apple ID username there worked well then, but I have since updated that. The email is no longer useable (university) and the passwords I have tried do not work - nor should they since I have updated my Apple account. Again, it's only when I try to access the App Store on my iPhone does this Apple ID problem surface. Please help! Thanks.

Settings -> Store --> AppleID

How can I access my App Store now I have changed my apple ID

How can I access my App Store now I have changed to a new apple ID?

That wasn't a very good idea. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another or merge Apple IDs. Not for anyone. All of the content that you got free or bought with the old ID is forever associated with that ID. You cannot redownload or update any of it without the old Apple ID.

How do I fix no access to app store and itunes.

Macbook Pro came with 10.7.3. I migrated my Macbook from 10.6.8 and it worked for a while. Then it got where I couldn't access the app store. Then I couldn't access the itunes store. I spent an hour with applecare up to level 2 today with no fix. I cleared the user caches, dumped the application support folder, repaired permissions, ran Applejack, threw out app store plist. Booted from the recovery partition, ran terminal pulled up resetpassword in terminal, and reset the permissions and other thing (A something or other) from there. No go. Still doesn't work. It works ok from another user account. I have migrated up from a Mac LC (with stuff from an Apple //e on it) through something I don't remember the name of, a blue and white, a G3 tower and now to this and a 27 inch iMac.
A companion problem is that the search box in the upper right hand corner of Safari doesn't work.
My workaround is to switch users for app store and use Chrome for browsing.
I had the same problem on the iMac but don't know what I did that fixed it.
Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
What do you mean by having no access to those apps? Can you start up your Mac and work with it, and only some OS X apps do not work?
Anyway, what you can try is to reinstall OS X. To do this, hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting up and reinstall OS X. You will not lose any file.

HT3843 I install the Genius for Apps and I can no longer access the Apps Store on my I phone

I installed the Genius for Apps on my new IPhone 5 and I can no longer access the App Store and when I tap App Store I just get a white screen with the heading Genius for Apps with a white screen and no active keys.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

I bought a new iPad 3 in USA in July but now I cannot access my apps store. I can't update or view the apps store. Secondly it keeps on telling t

I bought a new iPad in July in USA and it was set up by the Apple store in Houston, now I can't access my apps store neither can I view all my purchased apps.
Secondly, every time it want to update my apps that I bought years ago, it tells me to go to Nigeria store. I don't know why I must change to a store to update my apps
Thirdly, I think it's unfair to pay the same amount of Money for an IPad with those in USA and the you can't even download the good apps. It seems the apps in the Nigeria store are those they don't want in the USA . Why can't we have the same quality apps considering we paid the same amount of money to buy this iPads. I think this is very unfair to us.

The apps available to you are dependent on your location. If you are not in the USA, then you cannot get the USA app store. Whilst you may think that is unfair, it has been a part of the stardard terms and conditions you agreed to when you setup the iOS device in question originally, as well as every time you click agree to the terms and conditions.
This is done because of two things, firstly there are many legal and semi-legal reasons that an iOS app store download is available in one territory and not another, in addition to this, it also allows apple to provide language specific content, as well as team up with companies and organisations within individual organisations in order to provide you with exclusive offers, content, and information, which it would not otherwise be able to do.
Rules for the iOS app store are also applied in varing forms for the music store, the books store, and the iTunes U content library.
I can very much understand your fustraition, as someone who spent a considerable portion of his life, especially during the years he grew up, living in California, USA, but now living in London, UK, I too find it very fustraiting that you cannot always get the same content from one country to another, especially when most marketing for iOS apps originates in the USA these days.
I hope this helps your query and helps to ease your fustraition. If you would like apple to be aware of your fustraition, rather than putting it onto a pubilc form which is on monitored in a very limited capacity, then you can fill in the form at http://www.apple.com/feedback where you can give your complaint straight to apple.

Hello:
I do not know what you have tried, but try this:
Click accounts in the quick links section. You should be able to set things upo from there.
