    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?

  • Trying to access itunes store pop up is continually on screen

    Since the upgrade to 10.2 this morning I cannot seem to get rid of the pop up "trying to access itunes store." I click cancel, it goes away for about 5 seconds and comes right back. I was able to purchase and download a song however the pop up appeared multiple times throughout the process. It's to the point where the itunes store is nearly unusable.
    I tried a reinstall of 10.2 to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

    Took the same route as ricin beans,
    Complete reinstall, as painful as it was... at least it all works now.
    Luckily I've only had my MBP a week and hadn't had anything on it other than music to export/import, no doubt others aren't so lucky and still waiting for Apple's cure, if they ever provide one.

  • HT203175 itunes constantly tries to access itunes store.

    When I start up Itunes, it constantly tries to access itunes store.
    I've cleared cache, reinstalled itunes, de-authorised and authorised to no avail.

    I am having similar issues since I downloaded the newest version of itunes. On random songs from my library (mostly purchased through itunes) I am asked to authorize the playing of the song!! What the ****, obviously I want to play the song or I wouldn't have clicked on it! I payed for this music and I should be able to listen to it when and how I want, with or without an internet connection.
    Someone please help me! I have never had any problems with itunes before, but this one is going to make me crazy!

  • HT4743 Tv shows purchased wont play through tv, error says cant access iTunes store

    Need assistance viewing tv show purchased on ipad, through Apple TV, get error can't access iTunes Store

    Hi - I am now having this same exact problem on my Mac laptop.   I have many Breaking Bad, etc TV shows that I purchased through itunes & have watched over the years & now all of those, as well as, any new shows I purchase will not play on my laptop.    Just same as above person -- a black screen that appears to be playing movie (the timer is actually playing)  but no video or sound.    Shows / Movies all work fine on my home computer.  
    On my laptop it keeps saying .. "Not authorized to play .... & then says  "Sign into Itunes.. "   - but I  do sign out & sign  back in & still nothing happens.   Very annoying and frustrating as I  can ususlly figure things out with perserverence and trial & error. 

  • Error -9813 when accessing itunes store

    I get an error message when I try to access itunes store and I can't find any info about this error message -9813?

    All
    I have been having issues connecting to the iTunes store for over a week now , Error code -50 and some error message in spanish , after some messing about i renamed all itunesprefs files to iTunesprefs.old main one located "C:\Documents and Settings\Account name\Local Settings\Application Data". this makes itunes reset all it prefs but does not delete any music or vids . i then restarted itunes and bobs your uncle straight in and working again .
    in summary :
    rename all iTunesprefs files either xml or other
    remane them to .old so you have them if you need to go back
    restart itunes or reboot
    itunes will think your a new user but does not require a re sync
    and should be fixed
    i am not responsible for any errors you create by messing it up.
    it has worked for me on Win xp pro ver9 (latest version) itunes .
    remember error lies between keyboard and seat !!

  • Error -1020 When Trying to Access iTunes Store - Help!

    I keep getting Error -1020 when trying to access the iTunes store. Just started happening this morning.
    Nothing online from customer support listed for this error.
    Thanks!

    Looks like it's busted. Same problem here. The way all the support mechanisms work, you can't even report the problem, since you can't really log in to the store.

  • Error code 0x80092013 when trying to access iTunes store

    I currently have the lastest version of iTunes unstalled on a Windows Vista PC. For a few months now, I get the error code 0x80092013 when trying to connect to the iTunes store or log in to my iTunes account. I have tried to run diagnostics but there is no help availavle because iTunes will not connect to the internet to get the help I need.
    I have scoured the interent for a solution to this problem and have tried everything I have come accross, from re-installing to reading every support page I can find. I am becoming so frustrated trying to fix this problem, it is not my apple ID as my iPad works perfectly fine. If anyone can give me a solution that actually works it would be greatley appreciated

    After some research I found the following tip to be working:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/25038447#25038447
    So I changed my IPv4 as well as IPv6 DNS-Servers under Windows Network Preferences and everything worked again.

  • Itunes crashing at startup while trying to access Itunes Store

    Hey all, below is a reply I wrote in another thread.  I found a workaround to this issue that's working for me.. thought I'd also create this new thread... hopefully will work for you too until (hopefully) Itunes update/patch fixes the issue. 
    Hello, bump for me on this really annoying issue.  Running Windows 7 SP1, fully updated drivers.  Using latest Itunes, 10.7.0.21.  Just like the others, every time I try to open Itunes, the Itunes store seems like it's trying to load.. and then I inevitably get the "Itunes has stopped working.. Windows is checking.. blah blah" and then crash. I have tried every fix I could find on these and other forums:
    1.  Uninstalled/Reinstalled all Apple software as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 along with CCleaner to clean up any registry issues (after uninstall/before reinstall of course).  DIDN'T WORK.
    2.  Did the winsock reset listed here https://discussions.apple.com/message/17412059#17412059.  DIDN'T WORK.
    3.  Corrupt User Profile (Kernalbase.dll) Issue:  Did the renaming of corrupt Itunes folder listed here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-HK/w7itprogeneral/thread/be53aac5- c560-478a-9598-e0c6a33d9da7 and that worked the FIRST time after renaming the folder to Itunes.old.. i.e. opening Itunes after doing this was successful and thus created a new Itunes folder.  However, after closing itunes and reopening.. I was right back to square one.. Itunes crashing.  (This did "work" partially so probable that issue has something to do with Corrupt Itunes User Profile??)  Ultimately, DIDN'T WORK.
    *BTW, I also did a Run Diagnostics from the help menu of Itunes and got 3 green lights for network connectivity.. one of which is of course "Secure link to Itunes store verified".  So Itunes is telling me it seems to be communicating fine with Itunes Store. 
    There's nothing else that I can see to do short of reinstalling Windows... which I really don't want to do. 
    HOWEVER, after some trial and error, I found a weird little workaround.  It seems like the crash is happening upon the initial attempt by Itunes to connect to the Itunes store.  Here's what I did:
    1.  After opening Itunes (and the initial opening event is so that Itunes tries to connect to Itunes Store -- this will happen if the last page you were on the last time you closed Itunes was Itunes Store), QUICKLY click on "Music" (or any other "offline" library) on the left upper pane of Itunes.  This will take you to your Music library and Itunes will STOP trying to connect automatically to Itunes store.  So now, Itunes is open at least.  Note:  Others have mentioned correctly that if you open Itunes with your internet connection off, it will at least allow you to open Itunes b/c Itunes doesn't try to open Itunes Store if you're offline.  My workaround accomplishes the same thing while still being connected to the internet.
    2.  Now, if you now click on "Itunes Store" directly, it WILL CRASH as per usual. 
    3.  Instead, click on "Purchased"  which is directly under "Itunes Store".  Click ok to the pop-up.  Then, on the bottom right of the screen, click on "Download Previous Purchases".  This will open the previous purchases page which is actually WITHIN the Itunes store.  If you look at the left pane, Itunes Store will now actually be highlighted.  You're now in the Itunes store.. just via the "sidedoor" if you will.  You will also now see all the usual Itunes Store categories along the top of this page like the Home Icon, music, movies, tv, apps, etc. etc.  Click on the Home Icon (music, movies, whatever) and VOILA, it will open Itunes store without crashing! 
    4.  Now that you're "in", you can jump around freely during THIS session.  IE, you can freely go back and forth from looking at your left-pane offline music library, movies, apps, whatever.. and click on Itunes Store in the left pane and Itunes will not crash... you know, how Itunes normally works!
    5.  When you're done using Itunes just make sure the last screen you use before you close Itunes is "Music" or some such.  That way, you won't have to do the "quickly hit Music" the next time you use Itunes.  It will automatically just go to the offline Music library and not try to access the Itunes Store.  Then, just repeat step 3 and you'll be "in" again. 
    I really hope this workaround works for you until Apple updates/patches Itunes for those of us that are having this issue.  If it keeps working for me, I'm gonna live with it until the next Itunes version update hopefully resolves this issue. 
    OH!  PS.  I'm also having the Apple Software Update issue mentioned here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4040994?start=60&tstart=0.  I have no idea how to solve this.. wondering if it's related to the Itunes crashing issue.  I'm also getting the error message when trying to update quicktime from the help menu here https://discussions.apple.com/message/19392457#19392457. 

    Did not get any responses - so did some digging and found the answer myself in other discussions.
    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
