I cannot connect to the itunes store from my PC

For some reason, starting about 2 months ago, I can no longer connect to the iTunes store from my PC.  Does anyone have any idea why this would occur?
Obviously all my internet connections are fine and it is not a firewall or filter issue.

Could you walk us through what happens (when you try to connect to the Store) in some more detail, please?

  • Cannot connect to the iTunes Store from my home network since I upgraded to ios 6

    I own an iPad 2 and recently upgraded to ios 6. Since then, I cannot connect to the iTunes store from my home network.  I can navigate any other site and access any other application.  I can even reach the iTunes store through My Personal Hotspot and through my office network. 
    Has anyone experienced something similar?  My network carrier is Telmex and I know for sure, they block port 25.  Any guess on whether there could be a setting impeding connection?
    Help!!!

    I see you have already checked to make sure your system and other software is up to date, but there are plenty of ways to continue from there.

  • Cannot connect to the iTune Store from within iTunes.

    Can not connect to the iTunes Store from within the iTunes program on my PC. Using iTunes 10.4 on a XP Sp3 system. Everything worked fine until a few days ago. Now the iTunes Store (Store) will not open. Tried rollback, disabling firewall, anti-virus etc. Not working. iTUnes Diagnostic says I can connect to the net but the screen remains blank, except "No connection to firmware update server" is listed in the Diagnostic.

    Yes, I am running AVG Anti-Virus Free and was using Comodo Firewall. Uninstalled everything, iTunes Store still would not appear. Now using AVG and Windows Firewall, still can not get Store to come up. Diagnostic follows:

  • Cannot connect to the iTunes store from iPad

    Helllo.I have a problems on my IPad .When I wanted to download the videos or even just open the ITunes its says cannot connect to the iTunes store.And I know for sure that my iPad is connected to the Internet .What can I do?

    Can you use other apps that access the internet e.g. Safari ? If you can then try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.

  • I cannot connect to the iTunes store from my macbook pro snowleopard

    The iTunes store just came up blank yesterday. iTunes works but not the Store. I saw a similar problem affecting Windows, but I'm running SnowLeopard.

    Hello wholeddy,
    Since you are posting, it sounds like you are connecting to the Internet at least.

  • Cannot connect to the iTunes store from iPhone

    I'm connected to WI-FI. When I touch the iTunes election button, a the above subject message appears. I used the same phone as my previous T-mobile number. I am able to make a call now from my iPhone. It has been less than 24 hours. Cannot locate any doc to help me to get a solution.

    Hey coolgem,
    Can you browse web pages using Safari?
    What is the iPhones IP address? Goto Settings>Wi-Fi>Click the blue(>) next to your network.
    This article has some general Wi-Fi tips

    Try a power cycled of the iPad.

  • Can somebody help me in finding a solution or an explanation to the problem I am currently experiencing as well as others wherein we cannot connect to the iTunes store (iTunes could not connect to the store. An unknown error occurred (0x80096004))?

    Can somebody help me in finding a solution or an explanation to the problem I am currently experiencing as well as others wherein we cannot connect to the iTunes store. An error message appears and either says "iTunes could not connect to the store. An unknown error occurred (0x80096004). Make sure your network connection is active and try again" or "iTunes could not connect to the store.Make sure your network connection is active and try again." Despite the fact that my network connection is working quite fine, this problem still persists. I can say that my connection is fine because I can surf the internet and furthermore, I used to connect to the iTunes store just before this incident happened which started from April 17, 2014 and persists until today. I tried to solve the problem by following the troubleshoot procedures given in the support section of this site but it really did not solve the problem. I believe that others are experiencing this situation as well very similar to mine when it comes to the time of occurrence as I have read in the discussions in this site. Even though we have different network connections, operating systems and other specifications, we still experience the same problem, so is there really a problem with our computers or is it with the iTunes? And by the way, my computer works under Windows XP. Thanks a lot. God bless.

    Try this...
    Triple click anywhere in the line below to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
    cmd /k netsh winsock reset
    Press the WinLogoKey+R to open the run dialog, then Ctrl+V to paste, then press enter/return.
    You should get something similar to this:
    Reboot the computer and the problem should be resolved.
    If it doesn't work then perhaps a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes will fix things. See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

  • "Cannot connect to the iTunes Store" when using WiFi and Cisco VPN

    hi
    I'm on iPhone software 2.0 and have a connection to the internet via WiFi and VPN (using the integrated Cisco client). Everything works fine (Safari, Mail, mobileme push of contacts and calendars) but the iTunes Store and the App Store won't. While the App Store keeps spinning the iTunes Store says "Cannot connect to the iTunes Store". Has anyone else experienced a similar phenomenon?
    thanks

    We're having the same issue. App Store and iTunes do not work when all traffic is tunneled over VPN. Yet, other applications like Safari, New York Times reader, Telnet, etc... work perfectly fine over VPN. If we have the iPhone switch over to using split tunneling VPN mode, then the App Store and iTunes work since they do not appear to be sending traffic over the VPN tunnel. I can say for certain that no outgoing traffic is being blocked on the VPN servers since I administer those servers. I also did a packet capture on the iPhone wireless session and it appears that the App Store sends traffic over the regular HTTP port. So it really doesn't make any sense from a VPN perspective why Safari would work but not the App Store or iTunes when you're tunneling all traffic over VPN. Our iPhones are using the latest firmware (5F136). If anyone has any update, please do share.

  • IBooks says that it cannot connect to the iTunes store?

    iBooks cannot connect to the iTunes store?  If I go to iTunes, it will connect to the store.  Any ideas?

    This could be caused by several things.  Please provide more details on how you are connecting to iTunes, i.e. WiFi or 3G.  If WiFi is it your own home connection or a public one?
    For example at work there is no real reason for me to connect my iPhone to the company WiFi because they have nearly everything blocked; iTunes, gmail, aol mail, yahoo mail, FaceBook, Twitter.  Basically any of the Fun web sites.  So if I feel the need to update an app while I'm at work I need to wait for lunch go down to the lobby and use the Starbucks WiFi Connection.
    But if you are just having a problem connecting to iTunes you might try resetting your network connections, Settings => General => (Scroll to bottom) Reset => Reset Network Settings, wait for phone to restart and connect to the network.
    This will just disconnect and reconnect you from your 3G provider and clear out all the junk that has built up in the network buffers.  You will have to reenter your WiFi Passwords when you try to reconnect to them but you should have a cleaner connection.
    You can also try restarting your phone.  Press and HOLD both the Home button and the Power button on the top of the phone at the same time for about 10 - 20 seconds.  When the Slide to Power Off screen appears CONTINUE to hold the buttons down.  The screen will go black and then the apple logo should appear.  When the logo appears release both buttons and wait for the phone to restart and reconnect to the network. 
    A quick option (Although not as effective as doing a Network Reset) is to turn on Airplan Mode, wait 15 seconds and turn it off.  This breaks the connection with your network provider and then starts it up again.  It just doesn't clean out all the stuff in the buffers, but you may get a better internet connection.

  • HT204266 I can't get any updates or download new apps because I "cannot connect to the iTunes Store" yet I am able to do other Internet related things. Please help!

    I can't get any updates or download any new apps from iTunes because I "cannot connect to the iTunes Store" or sometimes it says server. I have no trouble getting my email or surfing the Internet, so it is a problem specific to accessing iTunes. Incredibly frustrated! Please help!

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    http://ipadinsight.com/ipad-tips-tricks/best-fixes-for-cannot-connect-to-itunes- store-errors/
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • TS3297 Cannot connect to the itunes store.

    I get "unknown error occurred (0x80092013). Tried firewall and proxy settings, nothing is working. This is frustrating. None of the troubleshooting is working for me...All I want to do is connect to the Itunes store from my desktop. Also, I can connect to the store on the other desktops and ipads in the house, just not this computer. And last but not least, is it possible to "manually manage songs" for your Iphone with multiple computers?
    Please Help!
    Thanks.

    I'm having the same problem.  iOS, Network & iTunes are up to date and working fine.  But the Apps update just says "Cannot connect to the iTunes Store".  I've tried everything I can think of, but still no go.  I've not done iPhone support before.  How do we get Apple to address the problem?

  • Iphone 4 Cannot Connect To The Itunes Store

    Ok, I've tried each and every solution from changing the brightrness to fully restoring my iphone to dancing around it with some incense burning while chanting ancient Tibetian mantras and still each and every time I try to update my apps or download a new app from my phone I get the "Cannot connect to the Itunes Store" error message.  This has all been since the last ios update and it's frustrating as ****.  The itunes store works fine on my ipod touch, my sons ipod touch but not my phone.  Please fix this or at least give us a clue how to do it. 
    A frustrated iphone lover.
    Paul

    You didn't answer my first question.
    Are you trying to update using your iPhone or computer's iTunes?
    Do this steps
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings again
    By the way, we are all users here like you trying to help and we are not from Apple.

  • I get a message that my ipad and iphone cannot connect to the iTunes store. I have tried to sync books to my iPad and iphone and i get the message that I cannot connect to the iTunes store and thus cannot sync a book to my books app. Why?

    I get a message that my ipad 2 and iphone 5 cannot connect to the itunes store when I try to sync a book to my book app. Although, when I click "store" both are able to access the itunes store. Why is this? Also I tried to open a book that was synced and a message that I did not have enough memory to load this book popped up--when I know that I have well over 40gb of memory left in my ipad and over 16gb left in my iphone. The message that I cannot connect to the itunes store is strange that it offers no option and I have to hit OK to get out and use my ipad or iphone.

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.
    If that doesn't solve it then what has worked for some people is going into Settings > General > Date & Time and changing the date to a few months (or maybe a year or two) in the future and then re-trying
