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).

    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).

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

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

    Help me

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    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.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    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 HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • 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.

  • Can't play any music on PC any more

    Hi there
    I have 5800 CWM phone and the CWM licence expired in October 2010.  Tthat's fine, as I was able to keep playing the music I had downloaded on both my registered PC and the phone itself.
    After a little while I  could no longer transfer music from PC to phone.  I have about 20GB of music and the phone has about 5GB of space for music so periodically I would transfer different stuff to the phone.
    Then I started being unable to play some songs on the PC at all - licence problems for some songs while others would play OK.
    Now I can not play any music on the PC at all.  I'm getting an error messge saying there is no licence, then an optimistic message saying "Your licence is being delivered" which would not happen.  Then I would get a message saying I needed to delete the song/album and redownload it from my download history.  I can see my download history but no longer have an option to re-download it - I  can only buy it.
    Additionally I am now getting a messge saying that "We can't sign you in" and that I need an OVI Music account which I already have.  I can login to Ovi.com with it just fine.
    This is starting to get really tiresome.  From having a handset which i could download any music for a year and keep after the year was up, on both the PC and the phone.  I now only have the music that is already on the phone.  The remaining music I can't access and indeed can't play any of it at all on the PC.
    Does anyone else have this kind of problem that has been fixed?  BTW it is now a level 3 support problem with no fix in sight.  Sorry for the long post.
    Cheers
    (sory for double post - originally on S60 forum)

    Update
    (Apologies if this sounds familiar to anyone0
    Finally got the first part of the problem fixed.  Though Ovi player said it was my registered PC, it was not.  Nokia support (2nd level?) reset it so I can now see my Download History.
    All was fine initially - started re-downloading all the albums I had downloaded and which no longer worked.
    Fine for stuff after Oct 2010.  Anything older than that I cannot download the album with 1 click, and instead have to download each individual track one at a time, then navigate away from that page, then back again to get track 2 etc etc.  Which is about a 30sec round trip for each track.  I had about 519 albums with about 8000 songs lots of classical) so that's 4000 minutes for me sat here manually downloading everything again.
    Then, I thought I could use the website ovi.com instead to download music, rather than Ovi player, but... when I logged in there it claims that I am not using my registered PC (though I have the Ovi player open on the same PC saying it is registered).
    Just being able to download the albums in one go would be nice.  Not as nice as not having to do it at all, but it would be good nonetheless.
    Even having a REFRESH option on the download history page would be nice.  Or navigation to pages at the TOPas well as the bottom of the page. 
    It really starts to look like it is designed to be so frustrating that people eventually don't bother any more. It'll take me months (at 1 hour a day) to manually download all the stuff I used to have.
    Rant over.

  • Help, I can't sync any music to my iPhone 5s or iPad 2 ! :( it says it's finished sync but the music is greyed out and not on my devices.. I've tried unchecking the music and doing it manually. Nothing works. I took it to Apple store Robina no help..

    Help, I can't sync any music to my iPhone 5s or iPad 2 ! it says it's finished sync but the music is greyed out and not on my devices.. I've tried unchecking the music and doing it manually. Nothing works. I took it to Apple store Robina no help..

    So I have found a common denominator to this phenomenon. After having the same problem, I started to recopy my playlist of 500+ songs in groups of 10-20, 30+, 75+, and then over a 100+. Any music I have purchased from iTunes won't copy, but everything else did. Unsure if I made a playlist called "Purchased" at some point or this is an iTunes default, I also noticed it had some of the songs contained in my other playlist and was showing on my iPhone. Regardless of what I did such as dragging music from that playlist to the other and clearing songs from that playlist, I removed it altogether from the iPhone itself vs. doing through iTunes. After that, music copied fine to my playlist.
    So, my theory is that iTunes is getting tripped up on purchased tracks already showing on the phone and all songs are showing grayed out/dotted circle because iTunes can't resolve the conflict with purchased tracks.
    Hope this makes sense and is helpful.
