HT204406 im trying to update one of my apps. It keeps giving me  "cannot connect to iTunes store". Press "cancel" or "retry".

I have tried it a few times with no success.
help please?

im thinking more and more that its a fault on apple's end.
i tried updating and downloading off the PC and a warning "itunes store is teporarily unavailable, please try again later".
looks like we need to wait for this issue to be fixed by apple.

  • HT1386 While trying to update an app I keep getting a "cannot connect with iTunes store"message

    For some reason my iPad say I cannot connect with iTunes store while trying to update an app. I've tried all I know. Any suggestions?

    I am getting the same message. This is what I did to update my apps.
    Go to the App Store and search for one of the apps that needs an update. When the app appears in the search - there should be an Install button next to the app icon. Tap on it and see if the download will start. It worked for me.
    After over two years of owning iPads and never having had this happen before -  this is happened to me twice now in the last two weeks. It's weird, but it happens.

    Try this  - 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 is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    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.

  • My Ipad2 has messages in App Store that says I have 22 updates. When I chose to update any of those 22 I receive this message "Cannot Connect to Itunes Store".  I am able to make new purchase or free downloads but no updates.

    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • TS1741 Can't update Apps. Get message that "Cannot connect to iTunes Store

    I have an iPad2 using Wi-Fi through my home computer. The device seems to hook up to iTunes on the computer and sync all applications. On my App Store icon on the iPad2 it shows "16". when i try to update I get the message "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" select OK. All other selections such as Purchased, Categories, Top Charts, Genius and Featured all seem to work. I was even able to download an app. I used to be able to update apps from my iPad2 through any wireless connection. Anyone have a fix for me.
    Thank you in advance for your help in this matter.

    See if this weird fix works for you.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.

  • TS1398 I still can't update my apps. Continues to say cannot connect to ITunes store. Everything else using Internet works fine. How can I fix this?

    I need help. I cant update my apps because of I cannot connect to iTunes store. I have tried all suggestions with no success.  

    Ok, I found a solution that worked for me when trying to connect to the iTunes store by tapping the "update" button in the "App Store" app on my iPad 2. Before the solution was implemented I'd always get the error message "cannot connect to iTunes store". Once the solution was implemented I now can connect to iTunes using the "update" button in the "App Store" app and I get the normal message "All apps are up to date". The solution is this:  go into Settings, then General, then scroll to the bottom where it says Date and Time. Tap Date and Time and then turn OFF Set Automatically. When you do that a new option will be added that says Set Date and Time. Tap it. You'll now get a drop down feature. Set the Date AHEAD 2 YEARS. The Time you can leave alone.
    Once you do that you might get a bunch of reminders and messages that your apps and stuff haven't been updated in two years. Click cancel or close on each of those messages or reminders. Now go back into Settings, General, Date and Time, and turn Set Automatically back to ON. Reboot your iPad. Open the App Store app again and go to the Update button. It might ask you to log back in to your iTunes account. It should now work. If not, close the App Store app completely and open again and try the update button. Hope this helps.

  • While trying to purchase through a game in my iphone it says ( cannot connect to itunes store ) how to fix this?

    while purchasing something from my iphone ( it says : cannot connect to itunes store ) how to fix this?

    Hello Emamoe,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when making an in-app purchase on your iPhone.  I found a couple of articles I recommend for this issue.
    First, I recommend using the steps in the section titled “Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch” in the following article (the article title refers to the iTunes Store, but the steps are relevant for the App Store as well):
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    If the issue persists after following the steps in that section, I recommend continuing with the steps in the section titled “Isolate the issue: (Mac OS X, Windows, iOS)” in the article below.  This section will help you isolate the network issue that could be blocking you on those apps:

  • When my wife tries to update one of her apps a strange Apple ID pops up. Her Apple ID is correct in settings and in the apple store. What does this mean? Where did the other one come from?

    When my wife tries to update one of her apps a strange Apple ID pops up. Her Apple ID is correct in settings and in the apple store. What does this mean? Where did the other one come from?

    There is something on your iPhone (a music file, iBook, document or video) that belongs to another Apple ID.  Only your wife would know how that file arrived there.  Your iPhone is asking for the correct Apple ID for all of the files that are resident on the iPhone.

  • Cleartune has updates available, but I keep getting a message saying "cannot connect to Itunes store"  all other updates work just fine?  The one app I paid for is the one that for some reason will not work.  How can I upgrade without buying it again?

    I loaded cleartune a while back, there are upgrades/updates available, which I'm trying to load.  When I choose update, it asks for my password, which I provide and I get a message saying "cannot connect to Itunes store"  I have many other apps I've loaded and upgraded just fine.  However this one, the one I actually wanted bad enough to pay for, is wanting me to delete it and buy another copy.  How can I update Cleartune without buying it again? 

    Hi all,
    This is a very interesting situation. I did try to update one of my apps within itunes as was suggested. That worked !!
    But then I noticed that I had 2 different logins that I must have created over the years. I almost forgot. I have a apple ID and an AOL ID. It seems that I purchased (actually they are all free) some apps with one ID and other apps with the other ID. I must have done this by accident.
    So when I log out of one of the IDs on my Touch and then log in with the other ID, I can update the apps.
    It seems that something changed on Apple's servers. It seems that until recently I was able to update free apps regardless of what ID I originally bought them with. Now it seems that's not the case. Apple must check this now.
    Now that I know what the issue is, I'll make sure I use one ID all the time.
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • Trying to update my iPhoneWhile  4 to iOs6 it froze on the connect to itunes screen and i needed to do a restore. But it restored my phone to january 2011 even though i just backed my phone up 2 weeks ago.

    While trying to update my iPhone 4 to iOs6 it froze on the connect to itunes screen and i needed to do a restore. But it restored my phone to january 2011 even though i just backed my phone to my laptop up 2 weeks ago. I still have all my contacts but i lost a lot of apps and text messages. Is there any way to make it restore to my most recent back up?

    I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
    Thanks very much for your feedback.

  • HT1689 I keep getting the error: Cannot connect to ITunes Store. I recently updated the iOS on the ipad3. Have tried heaps of fixes as suggested in various threads. DNS, date and time, reset etc

    I am a fairly new apple user, just got the new ipad, as part of an evaluation program. I recently did an iOS update and now keep getting the error message:cannot connect to iTunes Store... I tried date changing - no good ... The only thing that worked was to change the DNS setting to 0.0.0.0 as described in another thread. This fix for a day and now still getting the same error message and DNS setting changes do nothing. I have tried the reset method several times to no avail. I'm beginning tho think the ipad wasn't a great idea.... Apple need to attend to this. Like many, I have already wasted too much time looking for a fix. I am part of an IT in education group that will soon be recommending a specific hardware and OS. Could result in the loss of thousands of ipad sales for apple ....
    Anyhow... All or any suggestions are welcome :)

    Also, I've just learned that I can connect to download new apps, but cannot update any apps I've downloaded in the past. How might I go about connecting my reset apple ID with its history from before it was reset? I assume that is the biggest issue.
