Hi Boscoboi,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
You may need to check the settings for your iTunes Store on the iPad and iPhone.
Sign out of the iTunes account, restart the device and sign back in.

If these basic steps don't resolve your issue, then follow the advice in this article for connectivity issues with iTunes:

  • I keep getting "the network connection could not be established" error message when trying to update my iPads and iPhone to iOS 5.1

    I keep getting "the network connection could not be established" message when trying to update my iPad, iPad2 and iPhone4 devices using either my iMac or MacBook.  The Macs and iOS devices are apparently working correctly otherwise.  Problem started about a day ago when I connected one of the iPads to my iMac and iTunes notified my of an update for the device.  I tried and got the above message.  Tryied other iPad2 and iPhone4 and get the same message.  Also, get same message when trying to update using the MacBook. My system SW is 10.7.3 on the iMac and 10.6.8 on MacBook.  iTunes is version 10.6. Have gone thru the check list of things to check and have re-started. Would appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

    Another user named Springbk posted a fix that worked for me as I was having the same problem today:
    I Changed my DNS settings to OpenDNS
    On a Mac go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES>NETWORK>ADVACED>DNS
    change DNS by adding ( + )
    208.67.222.222
    then
    208.67.220.220
    click okay/apply after. then try the update. after the update, just delete the two open DNS server numbers. should revert back to your old one.

  • After the last OS update Itune hangs when trying to synchronise with IPAD or Iphone

    After the lst Operating system update and the last Itune update, I cannot synchronize my IPAD or IPHONE.Itune hangs.

    I have a 5230.  I have had this problem (or at least, a very similar one) since I successfully added a very large amount of places into the "locations".  Following doing that, I now get a message that synchronisation was unsuccessful and it stops.  It doesn't hang the software (Ovi Maps 3.04) but it does fail to synchronise.
    I've tried swapping to another SD card with an alternate installation of Ovi Maps, I've tried synchronising with a different user account, and I've tried deleting and recreating my user account.  I still get the same message.  I've also recently updated the firmware to the latest version and still have the same problem.
    I haven't done a factory reset of my phone as its a relatively minor issue which I can live with, but it is annoying and I haven't found a solution.
    Sorry!

    Uggh, it's so frustrating! I've googled every search phrase I can think of and this seems to be the only thread describing this exact issue. I'm always automatically logged into Facebook on my MBP but just to be sure I logged out and back in and it worked fine.
    I gotta say, I wasn't a fan of the Droid I had preceding this iPhone, and from what I hear the iPhone app for FB is a thousand times better - not that I'd know personally because I can't log in!! - but I could always access my FB account on the droid. Just sayin...

  • My laptop quit so how do I connect my ipad and iPhone to the new one and make it work?

    My laptop quit so how do I connect my ipad and iPhone to the new one and make it work?

    Hello Tamthom,
    It sounds like you would like to sync your phone to your new computer. I would start by using the following article to transer your iTunes and App Store purchases to your computer from your phone.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
    Note: If you had content that was not purchased from the iTunes Store you will need to re import the content from its original media, to your iTunes library separately.
    Then backup your device to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    After your puchases are transferred, and your device is backed up you can Erase and Sync the device, and restore your backup to it, that way moving forward you can sync it like you used to.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
    I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
    It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple.

  • When I start my computer I get a "AppleSyncNotifier.exe Entry Point Not Found message.  I also get an error message when trying to sync with iTunes that a backup session cannot be started.  How do I fix this?

    In the last few days when I start my computer, I get a box that opens with "AppleSyncNotifier.exe" Entry Point Not Found in the title.
    It says:  "The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQlite3.dll.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and still get an error message when trying to sync my phone with iTunes
    "iTunes could not back up iPhone ####, because a session could not be started with the iPhone."
    The last time I tried to sync my phone (iPhone 3G S) with iTunes, everything seemed to freeze up at Stage 4 of the sync process. 
    Any advice????

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Reboot and see if all is well
    In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
    3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
    5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
    Good Luck

  • Just the other day I try to put an event into icalendar but it won't appear on screen.  When I go to my iPad and iPhone the "New Event" appears on these but I can't see where to add info on my MacBook Pro.  Can anyone help?

    Just this week I am unable to see info I am trying to add to my iCalendar.  But when I look at my iPad and iPhone the "New Evnt" appears.  Because it doesn't look like there is anything on my MacBook Pro can't enter appointments.  Any help is appreciated.

    This can be caused by a number of issues.
    Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
    Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
    Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
    Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
    Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get.

  • Error message when trying to Sync with itunes

    Hi
    I seem to get error messages when I try to sync with itunes. I have the iphone 3G. Also all my music and videos seem to have carried across, all except one, it's very odd. Latest error message reads:
    "itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."
    I have also an error message saying it cannot sync and error message number 0050.
    Any clues?

    "itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."
    This error is associated with ringtones, are you trying to sync a ringtone, purchase a ringtone...need more info...
    I have also an error message saying it cannot sync and error message number 0050.
    Are you on Windows XP? Is this the error message...iTunes displays -50 error message? If so, follow these directions:

  • My husband and I share an email address. He now wishes to have an itunes ie Apple account, but it won't let him as there is already an account with that email address- yes, of course, it's ME. How can we resolve this?

    My husband and I share an email address. he now has a new phone which requires a link with itunes; he'd also like an itunes account. However, when he tries to set up an account, he repeatedly gets told the user name  - ie our email address, is already taken. And then his attempt fails. SO surely two people with the same email address can have seperate apple accounts?

  • After installing iTunes 10.5 update i get the following message when trying to play any song in my Library "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  how do i fix this??

    I have an iPod Classic and work on Windows 7.
    i recently installed iTunes 10.5 update and since then i cannot play any of the songs in the Library - i get the following message
    "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found.  Would you like to locate it?"
    what happened to all my songs (almost 2000) How can i get them back into my music library?
    Please help - i do not want to spend another week downloading all my cd's onto my computer !!!!!

    Try my script FindTracks. Select a few of the missing files to start with then run the script. Choose No at the first prompt so that you can check how it works track by track, then confirm or edit the location of the media folder where your files are. Once you are happy with how it behaves let it process larger numbers of tracks automatically.

  • Can see list of old emails, but error message when trying to view message.

    Ok, after a Mail crash (10.4.1), there were no accounts listed and of course no old emails, sent or in the inbox, were visible.
    We reentered all the account info, as if we were starting anew, and now we are able to see the list of all old emails in the inbox and sent mailbox, but when we click on any message before the crash, we get this error message:
    The message from David Crandon, ([email protected]), concerning (the subject of the email), has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take the account online in order to download it.
    Now, obviously, the accounts are online because we can send and receive new emails with no problem, and of course, the old emails aren't going to be on the server anymore.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

    Well, didn't work. I spent an hour and a half just trying to get my 76yr old uncle to back able to drag and drop into the correct folder, and then trying to find the file when he didn't....!
    Anyway, it didn't work. After removing the Envelope Index file, and reimporting the messages, everything was the same. He could still see all his old emails in the list in Mail, but got the same error message when trying to view them.
    Then, we rebuilt the inbox, and now none of his old messages are visible! However, they are still on the computer.
    All his old emails are ".emlx" files and if we click directly on one of them, then Mail will launch and display the message properly in it's own window. But again, we get the above error message if we try to view it by selecting it from the message list in mail.
    One interesting thing...in the Library->Mail folder their are two folders, "Mailboxes" and "Mailboxes.mbox". Both at the same level. It's the Mailboxes.mbox folder that has all his old emails. Although all the old ones have the suffix ".elmx". In the Mailboxes folder are all the new emails since we reset all the prefs in Mail after the crash a couple of days ago.
    Anymore help please to get mail to recognize all these old emails?
    Thanks,
    David
