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

I have the latest version of Pages 5.2 but I keep getting a message saying I must download the newest version to open my file, has anyone else had this problem?

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.2 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5.2 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

This issue is cropping up everywhere on the iPad site, leading me to believe that it is an iTunes server glitch. I am able to connect without issue in the northeast U.S.
You can try this ....
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Sign in and try again.

You need to contact iTunes support and send an email by following the link I posted.
Simply going there does nothing.

I'm trying to download my Master CS6 onto a new hard drive because my old one crashed and I keep getting a message saying " Cannot write the file" or "I don't have permission to access the requested resource." ? What does this mean?

Yes- it is a Mac. I went through adobes system requirements and re- downloaded supportive software. The notice seems to happen near the end of the down load with the messages above. I'll look into your suggestion. Thank you- appreciated.

I am tryin g to update adobe bridge but I keep getting a message to turn of bridge. It is not on. how do I correct this so it can finish updateing?

I am trying to update Bridge but I keep getting a message to turn off Bridge. It is not on. How do I fix this so it can finish updateing?

In the advanced Bridge preferences, there is an option to start at login. I have never used this option, but I believe it loads part of Bridge automatically if that option is selected. I'm using Windows, and have what is called a system tray. Software such as Bridge (and others) will have an icon displayed in the system tray (lower right-hand corner of the screen). Is it possible that Bridge is loaded at least to the point that it is in the system tray?

My phone is showing five bars and is connected to wifi but it keeps telling me that I cannot connect to the iTunes store???

My new phone is showing five bars and is connected to wifi but it keeps telling me that I cannot connect to iTunes Store???

Just because there are bars showing doesn't mean you are connected to the Internet. When you try going to the iTunes store, does the error message say anything about not connected to the Internet. If so, that's the problem. However, if you can successfully get to a web site in safari, then you do have a connection. In this case, are you sure you are using the right ID and password for the store?

It can take a few hours for your order to process fully, and I do see that your subscription is still "pending" in our order management system. If you're still unable to access the service in a few hours, please let us know.
