When I click on iTunes Store on the left side of my iTunes window, I get a full page ad for downloading iTunes 10 and nothing else.
Can anyone help me with this one?

  • Mac Mini cannot access secure WiFi any longer.

    Two days ago, my 8 month old Mac Mini dropped my wifi and would not reconnect.  I have a Motorola router with AT&T U-verse.  I reset router, computer but still kept receiving "timeout" error.  I tried creating a new location, clearing out keychain but that didn't help. 
    Eventually I wrecked my network configuration files in Library->Preferences and reset the machine while also resetting SMC (unplug power and hold power button for 15 seconds).  When machine booted back up, I was able to connect again until the first time my computer fell asleep.  The connection could not be reestablished. 
    I started toying with the router setting - when I remove all security, I could access the network.  Also, when I set the security to WEP instead of WPA, I could access the network but I was not asked for the key - the network showed up as unprotected which is troubling.
    Does anyone know why I can no longer utilize WPA protected WiFi any longer?  I am currently on OS 10.7.4.
    Does Mountain Lion address any of Lion's WiFi wonkiness?

    Very odd.. kind of thing that Mavericks does though.
    What is the router and dns values in the mini cf the MBPs..
    The TC should be in bridge so all connections are getting IP from the Comcast router. They should therefore all get the same values.. for router (gateway) and dns.
    Check this also by doing a ping to the internet.
    Ping your ISP home address. if it does not respond by name test it by IP address. you can pick this up from another computer that does work.
    If you have dns issues then simply change the dns to manual setting and use 8.8.8.8 which is the google universal one.
    Mavericks is very ipv6 .. I am not sure how relevant but make sure ipv6 is set to link local for both wireless and ethernet connections.

    iTunes 9.2.1 is the oldest version of iTunes that will work with the iTunes Store now (since at least the last major upgrade to the Store), and since, as your brother-in-law discovered, that version requires a G4 processor at minimum, I'm afraid his G3 is now obsolete as far as the iTunes Store is concerned. If he wants to continue with the iTunes Store, he'll need a new computer. G4s are available very inexpensively - he'll want one with at least an 867MHz G4 so he could run Mac OS X 10.5, necessary for iTunes 10 - and it's even possible to find an early Intel-based Mac for a good price.
    By the way, we're all just fellow users here. You're not addressing Apple when you post in these forums.

  • I cannot access itunes from any of my apple product, imac, iphone, mac book, ipad, or apple TV

    I cannot access iTunes from any device. It's telling me that itunes is temporally unavailable. It's not my connection, app, software, or device. I'm prett savvy with IT and it has to be on the other end. All of my devices didn't bite the dust at the same time. If they did S%&T!!

    You are right- they got to let us know that status or something. Here I am already to sit down and relax with a nice episode of Dexter and cannot access anything. it was fine this morning and now its annoying.

    Hi Michael,
    Yes it is now resolved but not after I send iTunes a request for help and explaining the problem.  They send a first reply explaining how I needed to verify my account and gave me the link to do that.  You and I know that this did not help, so I replied telling them that this was not working and iTunes did the reset for me.
    You may want to open a help ticket with iTunes help.  That is the only way it works.

  • HT1527 I have windows 8.1 and cannot access itunes store even creating a new apple id. With other users on the same computer I can access itunes store. How can I solve this?

    I have windows 8.1 and cannot access itunes store even creating a new apple id. With other users on the same computer I can access itunes store. How can I solve this?

    i had the same problem before using a fresh install of Windows 8.1.  I have resolved this issue by running the program compatibility wizard.  This I did by right-clicking on the iTunes icon in the desktop, selecting Troubleshoot compatibility, waited for it to detect compatibility issues and when presented with the following options: 1.) Try recommended settings; 2.) Troubleshoot program, I chose the latter.  When asked what problems I noticed, I checked the following: "The program worked in earlier versions of Windows but won't install or run" and "The program requires additional permission"
    After that, it tired to resolve the issue, and provided the necessary settings to run iTunes.  Now it's running flawlessly.  I have Avast anti-virus installed though.
    HTH!

    my computer with itunes zapped by lightning.  cannot access itunes files.  how can i transfer my music on my iphone to a new computer.  much of it was not purchased from itunes store

    Did you fail to maintain a backup copy?
    If so, then you can buy a third party program to extract the music not purchased from itunes.
    Itunes purchases can be transferred to your computer:  File>Transfer Purchases.

    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?

  • Have Windows 7 and iTunes 10.7 but cannot get iTunes to launch.  No error codes when click "open" and never does.  Have uninstalled and re-installed several times.

    Using Windows 7 and iTunes 10.7.  Cannot launch iTunes - click "Open" and get no error but program won't open. Have uninstalled and reinstalled several times.

    Can you check something for me please?
    Restart your PC. after the PC restarts, bring up your Task manager, and go to the "Processes" tab. Click "Image name" to sort the processes alphabetically.
    Now try to launch iTunes.
    Does an itunes.exe process appear? If so, does it vanish after a second or so, or does it persist in the Processes tab (even though iTunes itself never shows up)?

  • Error Message--ITunes runs in 64-bit mode. Uncheck the Open in 32-bit mode in Get info for ITunes. However it is UNCHECKED. I cannot access itunes at all.What now?

    Fallout75, good catch on the eXo plugin.  To remove it, in the Finder click "Go" on the menu bar and pull down to "Go to Folder" and then type ~/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins
    When that Finder window opens, you should see an "eXo" subdirectory.  Just delete that "eXo" folder and iTunes should start without the error.

  • I cannot access iTunes on my desktop.  Works fine on my laptop.  Message says "The iTunes Library .itl is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission."  The disk is not locked.

    I cannot access iTunes from my deskyop.  Worked great until a couple of days ago, then I now get the message that "The iTunes Library .itl is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file."  I have not turned on any parental controls on the desktop.  I have reloaded iTunes several times.  No luck.  I've run virus scans several times.  No luck.  I've restarted & tuned off the computer several times.  No luck.  I've uninstalled iTunes then reinstalled several times.  No luck.  Any thoughts?

    To solve this issue all I did was check to ensure that the file permissions were set as described by the earlier posts, followed by simply deleting the iTunes Library Genius.itdb file.  Once the file was deleted I was able to open iTunes without difficulty.  Note that I am running Windows 8.  Hope this helps!

  • Had to reinstall os ,and cannot access itunes although backed on time machine help

    had to reinstall OS last july after exel update installed virus  and cannot access itunes although backed on time machine help

    You should still be able to recover your media through iTune's "open" feature:
    Connect your time machine drive and navigate to it in Finder.
    Open the backup.backupd (or similar) folder.
    Pick a recent date (folder)
    Pick through to your home folder
    drag the music folder onto itunes in the dock
    Hope this helps, It might not be very clear.

  • Cannot Access Itunes

    Okay. I realize that itunes is busy with the Christmas rush. But, I've done everything listed in these forums and still cannot access itunes. People are saying they are getting in, intermittantly, but I've had no luck since Christmas Day when the new Nano crashed my itunes and I had to uninstall itunes and quicktime and reinstall. Since then, the music library is okay but I cannot get into the the itunes to download new program for the nanno (we purchased two of them and have had MAJOR problems and are ready to return them...) Previous to Christmas I was operating a Mini with no problmes. I've removed pop up lockers, flushed DNS settings Changed the windows system32 drivers to "localhost and phobos.apple.com". HELP!

    What do you mean downloading new program for nano? I would just connect your nano ONE AT A TIME and then click the update button. And the iTunes STORE is the only thing that could be labelled at "busy". Other than that, I would just click the update or even restore button once the nano is connected.
    Cheers,
    Kelsey
