HT201272 can't download anything from itunes store say's part of the file is corrupt

I have been trying to update apps for my iphone 5. I have the most current version of itunes. I also have tried to purchase new music and cant do that. I did in the beginning have ability to download but only for short time. I have been to MS making sure there are no conflicts. I need help....

It does indeed sound to me like that hotspot either blocks connections to the iTunes Store (quite possibly to prevent people from loading their connection up with large downloads) or has a routing problem. In either case there's probably nothing you can do other than to just use a different hotspot, though you can talk to the cafe and ask them if they're indeed blocking the iTunes Store; that would at least let you know for sure.

  • Can't download anything from iTunes Store

    Hi,
    I have an iPhone 5 running on IOS 6. Everything is working fine, except for I can't download anything from the iTunes Store. I can't download music, TV programs, or films. I'm pretty sure I can't download podcasts either. I can download apps absolutely fine, just not anything from the iTunes Store. As soon As I press download, it downloads as normal, but as soon as it reaches the end and says processing, as normal, it just sort of finishes. It doesn't end up in my music or videos folder. I also can't transfer any music or media from my computer to the device. As I said apps and photos and everything else is running fine.
    Has anyone else had the problem? Any solutions?
    Thanks

  • Can't download anything from iTunes Store...  From only one wifi hotspot

    Hello
    I am having trouble with downloading stuff from the iTunes Store. When I click on an app for instance to download it asks me for me password as usual, I enter it, then it disappears and nothing happens. It's the most irritating issue. It's only happening at one wifi hotspot at a cafe. I've tried using my iphone to download as well, it hangs, then finally says can't connect to iTunes Store. I have downloaded things at other hotspots with no issues whatsoever so it can't be my iPhone or Macbook. I reckon the hotpot doesn't allow those kind of downloads. I might be wrong though, don't really have an idea. Does anyone have any ideas that I can try?
    Thanks

    Are you listing the billing address for the card correctly? The address in the iTunes/MAS account must match the address on your bill exactly.

  • Asked to put security questions and answers. Click "Done" and it does not lead me anywhere. Now cannot download anything from iTunes Store.

    Anyone has been having this problem?

    I have the same issue, bteween France and The Netherlands. No solution found yet.
    Worse even. My credit card is not from The Netherlands, and the dutch store does not accept a creditcard from outside NL. So i used my french card to buy one app using France has my home country. Luckily the app's language remained English, but now the french store seems to be offering me frech versions of existing (free) apps which i dont want. So i cant use the updates.
    i cant change the country back to Neterlands, without using a credit card. I can make a new ID, but the old one remains stuck with the french store, pffff It seems the only solution is to create a new ID via a "purchase" of a free app, but the older free apps all may need to be reinstalled that way.
    Typical Apple ..... ? ! !
    I may regret having purchased this ipad.....

    Try resetting the App Store.
    Reset       Learned from Old Toad
    and you can try:
    - Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
    - Quit the App Store
    - In Finder - Go>Go to folder...  (or Apple-shift-G)
    - Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/ "
    - It will take you to a folder.  Delete com.apple.appstore
    - Launch the App Store.

  • Can't download anything from Ovi store , grayed-ou...

    Hi,
    I can't download anything from Ovi store anymore , both "download via PC" and "Download on mobile" options are disabled (grayed)
    This applies to all applications including those which I have never downloaded before !!!
    I have even created a completely new Ovi account , but with the same problem !
    Any idea

    Hi all,
    Thanks for the feedback. 
    Please use the search function as your question may be asked, and answered before.
    When you look at the page in the store you will see a link below the buttons which says:
    As you can see on the above image (and on the Nokia Store app pages) you need to install Nokia Drop for the buttons to activate.
    Hope this helps,
    Kosh

  • Can't download anything from iTunes/App store

    For the past week, everytime I try to download anything from the App store or iTunes I get a message saying "Unable to Download App" then it says "name of app/song trying to download" could not be downloaded at this time.  Done or Retry.
    I have logged out of iCloud, iTunes and my AppleiD and nothing has worked.  I went online on my Mac and updated my credit card (which was not out of date) and tried to buy a sont on my Mac...purchased, but could not be downloaded.  All my devices are having the same problem.  In the Error details on my Mac it says to check the Internet connection and try again.  My wifi is working fine on my mac and iPhone.
    Any suggestions?
    iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1, since last iOSupdate was installed

    I found a solution, and it's horrible.
    1. Back up your data. I used iCloud, but I also made a restore file through itunes, though you CAN'T USE THAT RESTORE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. It will just install the problem anew! Delightful!.
    And then,  basically do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 which translates to:
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Erase all data
    3. Set up your iPad as a new ipad - if you choose to restore from an old restore file, you'll just reinstall the original problem.
    4. Connect to iCloud to reclaim your iCloud stuffs.
    5. Spend the next hour annoyed and frustrated as you restore your music, photos, apps, etc... to what you think you had them.
    But miraculously, this let our ipad download apps again.
    Again, restoring from a backup will not fix the problem.
    All this speaks to some issue that requires the drive on the ipad to be reformatted with new permissions, or something, which is pretty **** annoying. Waiting to see the problem re-appear after it's finished syncing my music. Hurray!

  • Can't download anything from App Store - MacBook

    I've been using Windows 7 exclusively on my MacBook via Boot Camp for several years. I've since deleted the Windows partition. I ran a Software Update and am currently running OS X 10.6.8. I want to upgrade OS X further but can't download Yosemite (or anything) from the App Store. I click "get" and the button becomes unclickable but nothing happens. I also can't open iTunes.
    I don't have anything on this computer that needs to be saved so I'm more than willing to restore, though I don't know how.

    I'm having the exact same issue in the exact same situation.
    I'm getting the error below in Console every time I try to install or download anything from the App Store. I suspect this has something to do with Safari and some Javascript code being used by Appstore pages.
    I wish there was a direct link to download Yosemit. I'm stuck now...

  • Suddenly can't download songs from iTunes store

    I'm on a Mac OS X 10.4.11, using iTunes 9.2.1 (4) and Safari 4.1.3.  This worked fine back in June, the last time I downloaded anything!  Now I am again trying to purchase from iTunes store, and repeatedly getting the message, 'Session timed out.  Try again.'  Any ideas to resolve this?  Thanks!

    Hi Curt,
    Well, to solve this problem you only need to connect your iPod to the computer. I'm not sure why this happened, but if your iPod have access to your iTunes Store account, then it will automatically update your missing info.
    You just need to authorize your computer and connect your iPod.
    So you have two options:
    Do it when you arrive home, connecting it to your home computer;
    or
    Fist authorize your work computer, the connect your iPod. If you want, you can deauthorize this computer after finishing the process.
    Unfortunately there's nothing you can do directly on your iPod Touch
    Hope this helps!

  • I can't download anything from App Store or make any in app purchases after deleting a large game from my ipad

    I deleted a very large app from my iPad (3.3GB) and since then I cannot download anything from the App Store nor can I make in app purchases. Please help

    Have you tried 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.

    What do you see in the purchases tab? What happens when you click on the items in there?

  • Each time i try to download anything from itunes it says invalid security code

    each time i try to download from itunes it says invalid security code

    This same issue bothered me for years. The account I had used to purchase iTunes songs with suddenly stopped working. And always it was the same error about the security code.
    I talked to iTunes support, my bank and the eCommerce customer support for my Visa card. No one could ever tell me what it was until this year. I tried for years, literally years, to figure it out. I had to buy iTunes gift cards and that was not convenient for me. But thankfully, someone who worked in the credit department of a major online retailer, finally explained it to me.
    Small banks, sometimes large banks, often don't opt to offer debit and credit cards that use Visa's stronger security, which is advertised as "Verified By Visa". Not all stores and online shops use this security method during their checkout process, but iTunes does. (Amazon, for example, does not require it)
    So any error having to do with the security code means that Apple's iTunes shopping cart requires the stronger security method and does not accept the older 3-digit security code on the back of the regular Visa debit and credit cards. You would want to see which of your cards is supporting Verified By Visa security, and use one of those. The card you are currently using will never be accepted, no matter how many people tell you to carefully check your billing and account addresses and spelling, etc.
    So get a Verified by Visa card, or use MasterCard.

  • Can't download anything from itunes/app store after 5.0.1

    I've read a few discussions on this topic but have yet to find any solution that works, so I'm reposting hoping someone has an idea.
    We have an ipad 16gig, and recently updated to iOS 5.0.1. (via WiFi, this isn't a 3G model). Immediately after setting up after the update, the iPad can no longer update apps, download new apps, download iBooks, download songs, podcasts ... basically anything from the iTunes or App store. All are met with the message:
    "Unable to Download (name here) - (name here) could not be downloaded at this time." with a Done or Retry button.
    The same thing occurs for all apps, music, podcasts, etc... same message each time.
    During the setup after the update was installed, we agreed to the new iTunes/App Store agreement, so I don't think it's that case where iTunes can't do anything because the Agree option got lost somewhere. I also don't have any downloads pending that need to be paused.
    Solutions I have tried so far:
    1. Restarting and resetting the iPad, both via the power button, and holding down the power button / home button.
    2. Signing out of iTunes/App store, re-signing in, with two different Apple IDs.
    3. A full restore of the iPad from my computer via iTunes.
    4. Attempting to buy something free from iTunes or the App Store (somewhere this was suggested as a solution). Some descriptions of this solution implied it was to force itunes to ask you to agree to the new TOS, this hasn't happened, and we agreed to the new TOS when 5.0.1 started up.
    5. Resetting my router. Didn't think this was the issue but did it anyway.
    Googling the issue, apart from the above solutions, I've encountered something about "permissions" on a folder to which apps are downloaded being set wrong by the update, but I have no clue how to address that, it seemed to have something to do with "jailbreak" ipads of which this is not.
    I'm about ready to take it to the Apple store but I was hoping I could find something online first, and spare confusing some poor Apple employee.

    I found a solution, and it's horrible.
    1. Back up your data. I used iCloud, but I also made a restore file through itunes, though you CAN'T USE THAT RESTORE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. It will just install the problem anew! Delightful!.

  • Can't download songs from iTunes store

    When I try to purchase and download a song, I get a message that says "Item not available. Make sure your computer's date is set correctly and that it accepts cookies from the iTunes Music Store." My computer meets these criteria. Any ideas? I just upgraded to iTunes version 11.1.3.
