IPad 2 won't connect to iTunes store

I just purchased an iPad 2 this morning and set everything up. I went on my iPad and clicked iTunes and iTunes opens up, but when I click to buy something it exits out of iTunes and a blue box comes up that says "cannot connect to iTunes store". The same thing happens to the app store to. Ive been trying to figure it out but I can't, any suggestions about what it could be?

Had exactly the same problem, my iPhone had no issues, but my brand new iPad would not connect to AppStore or iTunes, and sometimes it would not connect to YouTube, iBooks or GameCenter... I tried all tips and suggestions that I could find on the web, but none seemd to work.
But when I tried my iPad on a different network, all was fine! So I got a new Cisco WiFi router and hey presto! No problems with AppStore or anything! Weird (wired) but true... I can't see a reasonable explanation why my 2 yr old Belkin (B-G-N) router would cause these problems, but theydisappeared totally with the new router installed.

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.

IPad won't connect to itunes why?

Is itunes updated to 11.1

My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update

My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update apps. How can I resolve this?

I had the same problem and tried absolutely everything...on my own and stuff I'd read on-line. Nothing worked. What finally did was this. I held down an app until all started jiggling. Then I deleted one of the ones that needed updating. Then pushed the round button at the bottom of the iPad to stop the movement. Then went to the "Featured" section of the App Store. In the search box (top right corner) I typed in the name of the app I'd just deleted. When it pulled up, I chose "Install". Worked perfectly. I went through this process, one-by-one, until I got all of them done. Now, everything is updated.
Sure hope this helps you and hope this isn't the new norm for how to do updates. I used to just select "Update All", entered my password, and the updates started happening.

My ipad can't connect to itunes store.. need help badly :(

my ipad can't connect to itunes store.. need help badly :(

have you tried quiting the app, ie removing it from the multitasking bar also, and then retrying it? Failing that, flick the ipad into airplane mode for a minute, then flick it back, wait for your wifi to connect then try again.

The software on the iPad is version 4.2.1 I am connecting with the factory USB cable and it does seem to be making a connection...the iPad begins charging (we've never had chargin problems with it) and it connects with iPhoto. I've restarted both the computer and the iPad. I want to update the software on the iPad but can't as it doesn't connect with iTunes. Any help would be much appreciated.

My ipad can't connect to itune store

my new ipad has a problem after upgrading to IOS 7.0.2, I key in my appleID and password but result shown " can't connect to itune store" So, pls help to advise me how to fix this issue. So far I can't update any application and buy any new application.

No one can. The ios7 update has been a disaster. Steve Jobs would never have released an IOS that was this buggy.
Wait as long as you can......

Ipad 1 - "Cannot connect to iTunes store"

ipad 1can download new apps and make in app purchases but when i try to update apps I get the error message "Cannot connect to iTunes store" what am I missing?

You're not missing anything. I've seen this happen before. No clue why it happens, but it's happened to me as well.
The first thing I would do is force close the App store. Double tap the home button to get to the multitasking screen then swipe up the App Store preview thumbnail off the top of the screen to close the app. Tap the home button. Then reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let the iPad start up and try the App Store updates again.

IPad 2 "Cannot connect to iTunes Store."

I have a new iPad 2 (32 gig non-3G) and when I try to download an app from the App Store it takes me to the home screen and displays "Cannot connect to iTunes Store." My internet connection is fine and my iOS (5.0.1) is up to date. iTunes and the App Store open and seem to be connected.
I have tried turning off and then turning on the iPad and it will sometimes allow me to download and install apps but not always. The same is true for reconnecting to the network.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

I had the same problem with only my ipad 2 while my ipad 1 and iphone 4 would work perfectly in the same location. I don't know is something has changed at the apple end to make my ipad 2 connect again but this is what I did and things seem to be OK for me for now..
Try it out and see if it helps.
On the ipad 2 go to settings .. Store..On the right side touch the apple ID at the bottom of the right side
That will open your Apple ID with options like Vew Apple ID, Sign out and Iforgot.
Press Iforgot It takes you to a screen to enter your apple ID. Then Next and it sends you an email to rreset your password. I did not reset the password and the email is valid for only 3 hrs it seems. I just went back to using the ipad 2 as usual and something seems to have worked.
Let me know if this helps anyone else. I had this problem only after upgrading to ios 5.

Ipod touch won't connect to itunes store

when I plug ipod touch in sync says it cannot connect to the itunes store says i must connect to a wi-fi network? any help please!

I have the same problem. I don't know when it happened (I seldom connect to the App Store from the iPod), but it used to work before. I am connecting using a Wi-Fi network.
The Internet connection works perfectly well in Safari and other apps, but when I try to open the iTunes Store app, or when trying to browse the App Store, I get the error message:
"Cannot connect to iTunes Store"
Please help.

I synced my friends ipod to my itunes, and all our contact information switched around and now my apple ID won't connect to iTunes Store anymore. What happened?

After I synced my friend iPod to my iTunes, our information got all messed up. Any emails apple sent to me, she would receive and I got all the messages sent to her. Whenever I tried to use my apple ID to download an app or anything, the password wouldn't work even though I was using the correct email and password. So I restored my iPod and created a new apple ID, and now the ID works, but whenever I try to get an app, it says "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". What do I do to fix this?
