In-app purchases won't download again, "network error"

Hi,
I have the Rock Band app installed on my iPhone. It worked perfectly fine until now, I made a couple of in-app purchases to get more songs and they downloaded properly.
But a few days ago, EA Games announced that they would discontinue the game on iPhone after July 31st. As a consequence, all players should make sure they restore their purchases so that they can keep playing after this date.
That's what I did, but ended up with a message "network error, check your parameters and try again" (not sure it's the exact wording in English, mine speaks French!). I tried again many times, with the "restore purchases" button or the different song packs. It know I own them already, asks me if I want to download again for free and then gives me the error message.
I shut the app, reopened it: no change. I switched my phone off then on again: no change. I deleted and reinstalled the app: no change + I lost all my previously downloaded tracks that were still in the game.
I checked the internet and a lot a people seem to be having this problem, but I couldn't find any solution.
Can someone please tell me what to do?
I have several packs that are all going to be lost tomorrow when I paid for them!
Thank

What happens when you try:
You can try the standard fixes:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • In-app purchase won't download.  What do I do other than ask for a refund?

    My in-app purchase hasn't downloaded.  Can I do it manually or should I just ask for a refund?

    Are you on wifi or cellular? Cellular has download size limits that may be part of the issue.
    You can also look on the app's support page and see what they recommend.

    Hi, Bvpai.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you are unable your Apps via the App Store on your iPad.  Here is the troubleshooting article that I would go through when experiencing this issue.
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time. 
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update(iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clickingCheck for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guidefor your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • My in-app purchase won't download. Please help!

    I've rebooted my phone and the restrictions are off. So far Rovio (the app developer) has been copy/pasting the same answer into an email, and I've yet to hear back from iTunes, whom Rovio told me to talk to if their fix didn't work. It's getting really frustrating because I paid five bucks and nothing is working to make my in-app purchase appear. When I use the app and go to "restore purchases" it says I never made a purchase, but I have the reciept. Again: I've rebooted my phone to no avail, and I've turned all my restrictions off. So if anyone has any better ideas, I'm all ears. Also, my phone is the 5s, and I'm currently running iOS 7.1 so everything is up-to-date.

  • In-app purchase won't download

    A couple of days ago, I was on my iPod touch (on a Wi-Fi network) and I was on this app (Tap tap revenge 3) and I tried to buy a track on there. It didn't ask me anything about buying the song.When I checked a couple of minutes later, nothing happened. I got charged for the purchase and that's it. I just checked my e-mail and that's how I found out that I got charged for something that I didn't get, so I've been looking all over the place trying to find somewhere I could report this to and I can't find it. So if you could at least give me a like to where I could get some help with this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    I have a similar situation, but with my iPad. If you get a response, please let me know. It will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I wish to buy the £2.99 additional content on the new garage band but as I enter my password for a second time it opens up a black page on the apps store and does not load at all. I have tried all the basics (re logging in and checking for unfinished downloads) but none of this has seemed to help. On the purchases tab there is no evience that i ever try to purchase it. Help please :')

    You can download 10.9 from the App Store, providing your MBP meets the requirements.
    Mavericks requirements:

    If your machine supports 10.9 Mavericks, go to the App Store and type Mavericks in the search bar and it will take to the download.

    When powering off my iPod touch, any application (facebook, viber etc)installed using App Store won't work again
    How to solve this issue?

    Try a hard reset first. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck, try downloading and installing a new app from the App Store.  Doing so has cleared the issue up for several users.

    How are you trying to re-download it, from within the store or the Purchased link ? You should be able to redownload it for free via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.

  • Iphoto won't down load because My mac is a lion 10.75 I need 10.10?how do I download iPhoto, and other apps that won't download?

    iPhoto app won't down load because My mac is a lion 10.7.5 I need 10.10 ? how do I download iPhoto, and other apps that won't download? They were uninstalled by mackeeper (with me as an unwitting accomplice Thanks
    I've reinstalled lion os 10.7.5 and got the app store app back.
    Even though iPhoto etc are purchased by me in app store, theres no way they'll download.

    then
    reinstall from the original source
    Could be
    1 - the restore disks that came with the computer - if it came with CDs and you do not know where they are then contact Apple to see if they can be replaced
    or
    2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
    or
    3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first

  • How long for in-app purchases to become active again after submitting an expired paid contract?

    We let our paid contract expire and therefore all active in-app purchases stopped working.  I just filled it out and it is now in-effect, but does anyone know roughly how long before these in-app purchases will become active again?

    Hi ,
    I'm very sorry to hear of the problems you have had moving to pay as you go.
    Please can you give customer service a call and ask to speak to the pay monthly retentions team who will be able to fix this issue for you.

  • Imovie won't download again

    My sister refurbished her laptop and deleted all of the apps before handing it over to me. I wanted to redownload iMovie, but instead of install it just says accept. Once I've accepted the app still won't download?

    Your sister needs to have erased and reinstalled the version of OS X that shipped from the factory installed on the Mac and the preinstalled iLife apps using OS X Recovery and also called Apple Care to have the Mac released form her Apple ID.
