I updated to iTunes 10.5 and now I can't connect to iTunes store

I updated to iTunes 10.5 and now I can't connect to the iTunes store. Anybody else having this problem?

I made some progress. The problem is thatiTunes is looking for a certain LSP (Layered Serviice Provider). Some antivirus software (PCTools in my case, wants another one.
1) Disable andy spyware
2) run command "netsh winsock reset" and reboot.
3) Voila it works.
I don't know all the consequences of this change but somebody is going to need their products' code.
Be careful, I know this works for me, but your mileage may vary.

I just updated to IOS 8.2 and now I can't connect to any WIFI network at home or elsewhere. I get a message that says "can't scan for WIFI" and it just keeps searching. How do I fix this?

Can someone tell me how to fix this problem before I use up all my data?

If you can't connect to home wi fi, or any wi fi, go into the RESET area of your SETTINGS and choose RESET NETWORK CONNECTIONS. Turn the phone off and back on and you should be okay. It may take more than one try. Good luck.

Help! I upgraded my iphone to ios7 and now i can't connect my iphone to my 2008 Macbook because i don't have the most recent version of itunes! how can i fix this?

My current version of my computer is Mac OS X 10.5.8. can i upgrade my mac to other software versions to then get the new itunes? I know my computer may seem old, but as my husband and I both have full time jobs (in front of computers) we really don't use our home computer much. It still runs great and i do not want to buy a new $2,000 computer when i have a perfectly working one right now. Please help me find a solution to this. Thanks!

Possibly...
The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Other countries...

After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

Updated to iTunes 7.6 and now i can't connect to the store

I getting an error message saying it timed out. This happened when i first downloaded iTunes 7.5 on my new Vista running computer a month ago but i fixed it by going into Norton and putting iTunes to allow. I went to go do the same thign because maybe it reset but it is still on allow. Can someone please help me.

I posted this in another thread, but read the bottom paragraph.....Even though Norton says allow for iTunes, my was still blocked as well. It's running fine now though since I've cleared out the programs list and rules tab and started over. Norton sets a no TCP rule I couldn't figure out so I cleared them all out.
I disabled only the personal firewall in Norton Internet Security and it connected straight away. When I found out this worked, I tried just allowing the four apple programs the personal firewall monitors and no joy. I will find which program is being blocked, but disabling the entire personal fire wall will work.
BTW, in my case I was getting the connection timed out but the iTunes diagnostics said the connection was fine but never connected to the store successfully
Some how Norton Internet Security set itself to block outbound TCP connections during the upgrade, even though iTunes was still set to allow all connections in and out. I couldn't figure out which rule to change. To get the firewall running again, I had to use the reset botton (in Norton Internet Security) to clear out all the rules and programs and then manually add iTunes with allow all privileges to the program list. CAUTION: until Norton repopulates privileges for other programs, you may need to add them manually.....this includes Internet Explorer or any other browser you may use.

My mom updated her iPhone to iOS7, and now she has my contacts. Does this mean that she has access to all of my photos as well? How can she 'unlink' our phones? Or, is there anyway that I can get my stuff to disappear from her phone? Thanks

My mom updated her iPhone to iOS7, and now she has my contacts. Does this mean that she has access to all of my photos as well? How can she 'unlink' our phones? Or, is there anyway that I can get my stuff to disappear from her phone? We share iTunes account so I think we are both on the same iCloud.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you are using the same ID as a primary iCloud login, then yes she can see your photos in photostream if you have it enabled.
You can use the same ID for iTunes so you can share all your purchases, but you need different ID's for iCloud.
Unfortunately, the mess caused by sharing the ID, will need to be sorted manually, once you both have your own ID's.

Icloud uses you Apple ID. It one of the Key feature on the new ATV. Restart the ATV, if that doesn't work unplug it and restart it. It should resolve the issue

Was updating my iphone 5 s and now is showing apple logo in itunes

Not clear just what you are seeing - does the iPhone screen show the USB cable pointing to iTunes? If that is what you are seeing then it has entered the recovery mode and has to be restored by following the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

I've just updated my iPhone and now I can't connect to my Bose soundlink Bluetooth speaker. Is this due to the update or is it my speaker?

Just updated IPad 2 to IOS8 and now have no 3G service have WIFI but not 3G Says No Service at top

I am really sorry I upgraded so quickly to ios8.
Not only do I not have my ATT but my pics "events from mac" are in some unknow order. I have 220 folders that are not alpabetized. I cannot find any pictures.
On the Macbook Air the events are perfect, all in alphabetic order. When they transferred they are mixed. Faces are mixed now.
THis new operating system is horrible. How do I go back to 7.
And the ipad 2 is so slow now. There are no positives!

HT201210 I was in the middle of installing the new update using the wifi at a local restaurant when I lost the wifi signal and my iPhone shut down, and now I can't get into the phone. I only get the iTunes logo with the cable pic. What are my options now?

Your only option is to connect your iPhone to your computer via USB (as the diagram indicates) and restore using iTunes.

I updated my software to iOS6 and now my phone won't automatically join known wifi networks even though I have it on. It goes back to 3G every so often when I'm at home instead of using wifi, and each time I ask to join it asks for my wifi password

Try this for your home Wi-Fi:
On your iPhone, Settings > Wi-Fi > select your home network > "forget this network"
Power down (unplug) your wireless router
Restart your iPhone
Plug in your router
Re-join that network
I don't know if this simple technique will fix it for good but try it. There is a long thread about this problem here: iOS 6 WiFi Disabled

i updated my iphone to ios 6. now i can not charge my phone with any cable. it says charging do not support this accessory. what should i do now? can anyone help please!!!!!!!

I upgraded my iPhone 4 last evening to iOS 6, the upgrade completed and the device was usable. Then in the morning I went to the device to check E-mail, Voice Messages, Test Messages, etc... and the phone was dead. I tried plugging the device into a charger (for a couple of hours) - still dead. Plugged into computer with iTunes, device not recognized or discovered, and iPhone was still dead... Took the iPhone into an Apple Store and the Technician looked it over for any visible signs of defect/malfunction, then performed various tasks to breathe life into the phone - nothing... His suggestion, at this point, was to replace the phone. He speculated that the iOS upgrade possibly corrupted the iPhone's charging firmware, and that this device was now a BRICK. Keep in mind that the phone and it's charging abilities were perfectly fine prior to the iOS Upgrade. I hate to go through the replacement hassle and the cost ($159.00) when the iOS upgrade caused the problem. Any suggestions? Thanks!
