HT4743 Whenever I try to watch the TV shows I purchased through iTunes (some on my laptop, some on AppleTV), I get the message "iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later". It's happened on every tv show I own, but the movies I have work perfectly.

iTunes is available if I want to purchase something, but not to play TV shows? I've looked around and it seems like it's a somewhat regular problem? I'm just trying to figure out if this is going to be an ongoing problem. I just purchased AppleTV less than a week ago and everything is up to date.

What ISP?
What router?
Who made it, what software?
Is it just the iPad ( Anything else using wifi at your place having problems? ) ?
Give us something to go on.

    I have the same thing happening on my iPod Touch 5th gen. Been happening for at least a month. I have updated to the most recent version of iOS which hasn't solved the issue. Must be a bug that they didn't get around to resolving yet, a year later. Really annoying to have it pop up when you are in the middle of a game though.

    I posted the same sort of problem in the thread

    I noticed in my instance that it is HD content that is giving me the same problem, but Standard Definition (SD) content downloads and plays no problem.
    Would this be the same with you? Have you been able to download a play an HD rented movie?

  • TS1424 how about "the connection error. The game server had an internal error. please try again later". thats what happen to me while i want to purchase a gem in dragonvale aplication and i being charged for the Gem that i never had.

    regarding of the game that I playing, its Dragonvale, I plan to buy a Gem. and after I desided to buy, but what happen is that the game centre it self didnt gave me the Gem but instead they said "Connection Error. The Game server had an internal error. Please try again later."
    so if thats the case of error transaction..so why the BACKFLIP STUDIOS(DragonVale) charged me to my credit card for the Gem that I never received.
    I need to clear this things.

  • Workaround for "An error occurred while contacting the radio tuning service. Check your Internet connection, or try again later."

    While Apple tries to figure out what's wrong I came upon a great workaround for those of us that like the radio feature of iTunes. This actually doesn't take long either.
    When trying to expand the categories you get the error "An error occurred while contacting the radio tuning service. Check your Internet connection, or try again later." This happens enough to think that the service is completely broken. Actually, it seems intermittent. Try clicking it a few times. you WILL GET THROUGH. When you do get there, highlight all of the stations(or just the ones you want), create a playlist (I use the name of the category as I take the entire list), and paste into the playlist. You can then play the stations EVERY TIME from the playlist. Works perfectly.
    It doesn't seem to have anything to do with what version of iTunes you have or what plugin you have. I have seen this on over 600 computers - Windows & MAC - and the workaround is 100%.
    Let me know how you make out. And, PLEASE SHARE THIS FIX!!!

    Yes indeed, this workaround was posted a few days ago at https://discussions.apple.com/message/17739684

  • The itunes store is temporarily unavailable - try again later.

    The itunes store keeps saying that it is temporarily unavailable and to try again later. It has been like this for about a week now and I have tried everything. My software is up to date on both my laptop and itunes so I cannot see why it would be taking this long to resolve. I can see the visual banners on the start page and can search music but I am not able to make changes to my account, sign out of my account, purchase music or redeem vouchers etc. Please help if you can!

  • ITunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later.

    Ever since I upgraded to iTunes 10.4 I've been getting this dreaded message on many occasions when I try to sync my iPhone 4 or iPad 2 with my Win 7 64 bit machine. "iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later." What happens is that local content (music, videos etc) will sync properly to my iPhone, but other content (such as Outlook information, MobileMe stuff, etc) will not.
    I have uninstalled and completely purged all Apple data from my PC (including hidden files and folders under Common Files and in the Registry) and reinstalled iTunes. Yet after one or two syncs, the same problem resurfaces. The other weird part is that the Sync Services crap-out message will happen after I do a successful sync, leave the iPhone connected to the PC, and don't even touch the computer for several hours.
    I've actually developed a very tedious work around that seems to restore syncing if for a short time.
    - Undock/unconnect all Apple devices from the PC.
    - Close iTunes, MobileMe control panel, and Safari (if you have it).
    - Start Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del) and shut down iTunesHelper.exe and SyncServer.exe
    - Open up a Windows Explorer window (like My Computer) and under Tools, Folder Options, View, toggle on Show Hidden Files and toggle off Hide Protected Operating System FIles
    - In WIndows Explorer, navigate to "C:\Users\<your name>\App Data\Roaming\Apple Computer". Rename the folder Sync Services to something else, like Sync Services_Old.
    - In WIndows Explorere, navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support" and double-click on AppleSyncNotifier.exe.
    - Go back to your Folder Options and turn off SHow Hidden Files and toggle on Hide Protected Operationg System Files
    Now you can start up iTunes again and connect your device. It should sync properly again (at least, until it doesn't once more).
    Does anyone at Apple have any idea about this error or a solution?

    I actually spent a fair amount of time on the phone with a senior Apple tech last week. He directed me to this topic:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923?viewlocale=en_US
    It's important that you go through the steps EXACTLY as described here and in the proper order. Also make sure MobileMe control panel is uninstalled (if you have it).
    Interestingly, when I went through this procedure and then reinstalled iTunes 10.4 64-bit  (didn't do MobileMe or Safari at this stage, but QT is automatically installed) everything worked perfectly. The aforementioned error messages disappeared and all is working flawlessly, as it should.
    I hope my expereince will help! Give it a try.

  • Airplay from ipad gives error on AppleTV 2. Says "an error occured loading this content. Try again later"

    I have been unable to use our AppleTV 2 for a few weeks now. I can't figure out what is wrong. I am unable to play anything via Airplay when trying to play videos from our iPad. I get the error "An error occured loading this content. Try again later". This happens only when trying to play videos from our iPad, but not videos from my iPhone. I am also unable to stream videos from our Netflix instant queue. I've tested the network, which is fine. The iOS on the iPad is up to date, as is the AppleTV 2. Any other suggestions?
    update: i unplugged the apple tv for 60 seconds and its working now. 

    The video files are mostly M4V not MP4. I did find that if I start playback and select the ATV3 from inside iTunes, the movie will play fine. However, this is not optimal as the iMac is in another room.

  • Blackberry app world keeps saying 'AN ERROR HAS OCCURED. PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER'

    Hi there
    I have a blackberry 8520 and everytime I try and download something from the app world it keeps giving me the error message of ' an error has occured. Please try again later' this started happening when I upgraded my app world.
    I have rebooted my phone, restarted it and made sure its fully charged. This has been going on since saturday (when I upgraded my app world)
    I cannot download any apps because of this problem. And when I try I keep getting the Error msg!!!!!
    Please help as I really enjoy the phone I just can't download any apps!!!!!!
    Thanx

    Hi there!
    I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB):
    1) Register HRTHomescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
    2) Resend Service BooksKB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    3) Batt Pull RebootAnytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Hopefully that will get things going again for you! Good luck and let us know!
