How to connect to multiple iTune stores?
I listen to music from different countries and I find it difficult not to be able to connect to multiple iTunes stores of different countries in which I can easily get album info/artwork/etc and purchase music and many more. I wonder if I ve missed something which allows me to do so. Otherwise I hope Apple has thought about the possiblities for customers to do that and hope it will come with the new iTune in time.
The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
I am sure Apple wants to sell you as much as it can in order to make as much money from you as possible. However, it has to abide by restrictions placed upon it by the media rights holders and to a lesser extent by country laws.

How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect to the iTunes Store?
So my company decides to cut off my access to the iTunes Store. So I go in to Prefs and turn off all things iTunes Store related. I'm still getting a message saying it can't connect to the iTunes Store. How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect?
Disable itunes store in preferences.
It's also possible you have some podcast group trying to connect to iTunes if that's their source. Disable podcasts or at least set preferences to check for podcasts manually. -

when attempting to connect to the itunes store, the status message says "accessing itunes store..." but never connects. how do i resolve this?
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 n 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.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

I downloaded iTunes. I was going to put an MP3 lecture on iTunes so I could put it on our new iPad but I got the message:
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unknown error occurred (-3212). Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I was able to get on this site so I know the connection is fine. Any ideas how to fix this?

I'm a new iPad owner. When I've rented a movie, I can't work out how to play it back without a wifi connection. I get a message which says you cannot connect to the iTunes store without an Internet connection. This happens whether I've rented or purchased a film. We're going on a flight soon and would ideally like to watch one on the plane. Can someone please provide some step by step instructions. Thanks.
Rented or purchased video are watched through the videos app after you have downloaded them, iTunes on iOS devices is for buying media only.

I am having problems in connecting to my itunes store on ipad 2 . anyone know how i can resolve this.
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.

How to De-authorize an older PC running Windows 2000 PC with iTunes 7? My itunes will not connect with the iTunes store to all the deauth request.
The "Deauthorize All" command is only available if iTunes thinks you are currently using 5 authorizations.
Otherwise, you can only deauthorize the old computer by using "Deauthorize this computer" from the computer itself.
If the old computer is no longer operable, you can't deauthorize it, but that is not a problem.
