I have latest iTunes installed but can't connect to the Store

I have tried v10.4 & v10.5, have disabled the firewall, added trusted domains & required ports.
Deleted the hosts file & lots of other things
I enter my apple ID & get the message that this ID has not been used in the store before & must be reviewd.
When I do this I get Welcome to the iTunes Store. blah , blah
To begin creating your Apple ID, click Continue.
When I click on continue, the yellow box at top says Accessing iTunes Store then when it stops - Nothing happens!!!
If I run diagnostics it tells me I passed all tests OK.
OS is Vista64
Any ideas

This has been a bit of a problem for a while, one reason, it cannot talk to the apple servers.
Some firewall, mainly Bullguard, zonealarm, avg and a few others are blocking traffic to the site even if disabled, these need to be uninstalled.
If uninstalling doesnt work then you need to run this command as an administrator from the CMD prompt.
netsh winsock reset
This should resolve the issue your having.
Finally its known that some spyware and trojan scanners along with PCTOOLS causes problems and these need to be uninstalled aswell if you have them on your pc.
Hope this helps.

Nothing will load unter the features or charts tab so i cant download any apps. Purchased and updates tab loads fine. Any suggestions?

You would get better response from the iTunes community forum.
Have a nice day!

I already have a valid payment method for my iTunes account, but can't get past the Family Sharing setup prompt telling me to add a payment method . What to do?

I already have a valid payment method for my iTunes account, but can't get past the Family Sharing setup prompt telling me to add a payment method . What to do?

I had the same problem and found a bunch of others did, too. Unfortunately all the posts had no responses! Anyway, I previously had my payment method linked to my paypal. I tried changing it to my credit card and it worked. Don't know if there's a bug with using paypal but that seemed to be the culprit for me. Good luck!

I'm from the USA but am on vacation in Brazil; I have a great WiFi connection but can not connect to the iTunes Store. Is this because I am out of the Country?

Thank you very much for your insight; I guess I had assummed that iPads/iPhones/iPods were here in Brazil and further assumed that the iTunes store would also be available.

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

Hello goreckim,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I understand you are having some issues with iTunes on your Mac Pro. You may want to isolate the issue further by testing to see if it persists in a new user account:

You can also try starting iTunes in safe mode:

I want to use an old 3 GS iPhone that is no longer in service as a phone now as just an iPod to play music. When I connect the phone to the computer with iTunes running, iTunes says it can't connect to the device because it didn't get a valid response from the device. How can I get the system to recognize the phone, and let me rename it as my iPod, instead of my phone?
As an aside, the current installed operating system on this old iPhone is 4.2.1, but that wasn't one of the selectable options in the operating system list dropdown below. Don't know if that makes any difference.

I have full signal power, but says cannot connect to App Store. I had put all of my icons in different folders to organize but took App Store out as troubleshoot.
Any help?

Are you trying to connect via wifi?
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

I have an iphone 4 but can't update ios coz the phone has
No software update on general setings pls help i wanna download latest apps... Thank u

Your iOS version is probably too old to support software update. You must update using iTunes on your computer.
Make sure your iTunes on the computer is current. Plug your iPhone into iTunes. Let it sync. Then choose "Check for Updates..." from the iPhone's summary tab in iTunes. That should od it for you.
