I can't buy any music on my MacBook in iTunes

When I try to purchase music in iTunes I am prompted for my password. Once I enter it correctly, the prompt disappears and then reappears right after with my password not filled in. I enter it correctly each time and each time it just keeps prompting me to reenter my password. I use my password on my apple and my iphone correctly and it works just fine. The problem is only on my MacBook. If I enter the password incorrectly in iTunes on my Macbook, it delivers a read message in the prompt telling me it was entered incorrectly. When I enter it correctly, it simply recycles back to the same prompt. My iTunes is complete upgraded to the latest version, as is my MacBook. Please, advise.

Hi ...
Restart your Mac then try purchasing again.
If that doesn't help, on your Mac open iTunes. From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Click to Reset warnings and Reset cache then click OK.
Quit and reluanch iTunes then try purchasing music.

ITunes 9... I can't buy any music!

I want to buy some music... I really do... but I can't! iTunes hangs when I want to view an album, hit the "back" button, or do much of anything in the iTunes Store. It says it is accessing the iTunes Store, and the progress bar goes about half way, then stops. Eventually it times out and drops the action. Very slow. Anyone else have this problem? It seems very buggy, I'm suprised this was released this way.

i just upgraded to v9, and now i can't buy any music either. i get "accessing itunes store" when i hit "buy this," then it just hangs.
the last time i upgraded itunes, it refused to recognize my iphone, so i couldn't upgrade to iphone os3. the apple store geniuses and apple support told me i was the only one having this problem - then a week later apple issued a general fix for "problems with recognizing devices." hmmm.....
so, i'm thinking i agree with you- let's wait a bit when releasing new versions - this is tedious.

Is it true that i can't buy any music from the states when my book is registered in hk??

Thanks, but unfortunately, this is not a message, it is the HTML page that it shown after a student registers for a course. I can see how to preview it at
but I can't edit it here, nor anywhere else I can find...note that I am looking the "Registration Confirmation" link (last one).

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

I can't alter any music on my 5s through itunes.

I can't alter any music on my 5s through itunes. I'm not sure if it's to do with the latest update or because i had my laptop re-installed. Any help would be great!!

When you reinstalled Windows on your laptop, did you include your iTunes library with your computer's backup along with all other important data before doing so?
If you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, what happens when syncing? Any error message provided?

Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.

I can't buy any music

I know people have been reporting all kinds of problems with iTunes, but mine seems slightly different. I can get into the music store far enough to search for individual songs, but when I click to buy (or add to cart), the dialogue window says 'Accessing music store' and stays that way, never get in and never giving me an error message. It won't allow me to cancel, so I have to close iTunes, and then I can't reopen it until I've restarted my PC. I can't swear that it coincided with downloading the latest version, but I suspect it. I've gone through all the fixes suggested - my windows firewall has iTunes as an exception -127.0.0.1 local host is fine, etc. I have the same problem on my wife's networked PC. It's extremely frustrating. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks

This is EXACTLY my problem as well!
I have two identical new Dell desktop PCs that are hardwired into my router - both behave as you described. Here's what's strange: I have a Dell laptop that I operate wirelessly to the router. It loaded the software today and works FINE! I have meticulously set my desktop settings to match the laptop but they still don't work.
I have:
- Turned off all firewalls
- Completely shutdown AOL
- Reloaded iTunes
- Bypassed router
- Shutdown virtually all other processes
....still nothing.
Apple Tech Support: What a joke - 3 days after sending them my issue I get a form letter back telling me to read some articles (already had done that).

My phone changed my Itunes store to the U.K. and now i can't buy any music. How do i switch it back?

My Iphone changed into the U.K. store and now every price is in pounds. I can't buy anything or figure out how to change it back. It's the same with my app store.
Any advice?

Try going to the bottom of the Music tab in the iTunes store app on your phone and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select your country.

I Can't Buy Any Music! Help Please.

Okay, this happened a few days ago. I've been trying to figure out what happened, but to no avail, so I've come here to get help. Every time I click on an album, it takes me to the regular screen where it shows the info about it on top along with reviews, etc.
On the bottom where the songs are supposed to be is nothing. I've tried clicking on multiple things, but nothing works. All I see is black columns.
Does this have anything to due with the fact I just redeemed two fifty dollar music cards from my birthday? I don't know if putting that much on at once makes Itunes do something funky.

I emailed apple support and they replied a day later that I needed to upgrade. So I upgraded and I still cannot download any music. Ive looked for a 1 800-help phone number but cannot find one. As much as I like i-tunes, I think they still havent worked out all the bugs if so many people are having the same problem.

TS2446 I can't buy any music on my iPod because my apple ID is disabled because I answered the sercurity questions wrong and I don't know what to do to fix it

The main page of iTunes is not showing up, I can't preview ANY music, and I can't buy any music. Why is this happening?

Like I said... I'm having all these problems. I have the updates, my computer isn't firewalled against iTunes.. I don't get it! I've been having trouble with the previewing thing for a while now.. the little 'play' icons never show up--even on music that has already been released. The front/main page of iTunes (when you first open it) shows only the side bars, not the new releases and What's Hot and all that that's usually in the center of the page. Now, on top of that (this is a very recent development) I can't even buy music! I'm signed in, I have a valid payment method, and the Buy button shows up... but when I click on it, nothing happens. I am getting really tired of this; can anyone tell me what is going on?

If the problem is iTunes slowing down and not appearing to run correctly, you should check this Apple article out-> Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
You may want to try resetting Winsock as a temporary fix.
1. To do so, please do the following in an administrator user:
Windows Vista and Windows 7: Right click All Programs and choose Accessories > Command Prompt. Choose to open as an administrator.
Windows XP: Click Start > Run and type in cmd.
2. Enter the following command:
netsh winsock reset
3. Restart the computer and test the issue.
Note: If the issue returns, third-party software may be reinserting the LSP.

I forgot my security question and I can't buy any music. What should I do?

HT1920 hello my name is juan and i am trying to figure out why i can't buy any music telling me to get ahold of you guys to move forward?

hello

It's difficult to determine what it is you're asking, but if you've been told to contact the iTunes Store to complete the transaction, you will need to do what it says, contact iTunes support. Click the Support tab above, then the link in the Contact Us area and you'll be guided.
Regards.
