Itunes access from phone

my iphone keeps trying to access itunes and keeps asking for my password without any prompt from me to do so any ideas?

Hi sunshinewong,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you weren't able to access iTunes at all on Wednesday, March 11, 2015 I would have suspected the system issues (you can click back in time).
Apple - Support - System Status
 Multiple Store Services - Some users were affected
Customers may have been unable to make purchases from the App Store, iTunes Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store.
iCloud Account & Sign In - Some users were affected
Users may have been unable to sign in.
But since your Mac connected fine, please try the troubleshooting in this article.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
There's a section for "Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch".
Best,

  • Itunes access from India iPhone from US - problem??

    I am from the US traveling in India. I am trying to access the app store to download an app for a 4S with current software.  I am able to access the internet and mail.  However when I tap on the app store I immediately get the following - cannot connect to itunes store.  Any suggestions as to what might solve this issue.  I don't have access to a mac, just the iPhone.  I have tried this on two different wireless networks and both times my mail, still on mobileme, downloaded successfully.  Thanks

    You must be within the Country of the iTunes Store (in your case US) to Purchase from that iTunes Store.

  • Itunes deleted from phone. how do i reload to download apps?

    Somehow my itunes app was deleted from my phone and it won't allow me to download it again. Safari says cannot open the page because the address is invalid. How do I fix this?

    It cannot be deleted as it's part of iOS.
    Check Settings > General > Restrictions to ensure it has not simply been restricted.
    If it is not turned on in restrictions, then it is either in a folder or on another homescreen, search for it.
    If none of that resolves, restore the device.
    There is no way to download iTunes for iOS, it is a part of iOS.

  • "Cannot Connect to iTunes store" from phone.

    Weird problem:  For some reason I cannot download new Apps to my iPhone 4s from the phone.  I can update existing apps fine, and I can search for new apps fine, but if I want to install a new App from the iTunes store on the phone itself, I always get a message: "Cannot connect to itunes store".  It happens on WiFi, on 3g, on Edge... I've restarted the phone and reinstalled the software from scratch.
    It's not an issue I've had before, on my 3gs.  Any ideas?  It's an annoying issue to say the least....

    I believe for apps you use the app store.
    The itunes store is to download music/shows/video is that what your trying to download.

  • How to display only contact containing a number when accessing from phone

    Many of the contact in the address book, contain e-mail only data. These are very useful for mail but are distracting when you launch the address book to call someone. Is there a way to show only names that actually have a phone number, when you open the contacts from the Phone app.

    Not that I'm aware of.

  • ITunes Access from the ME!

    Hi, I have moved to the Middle East and can no longer download apps from my UK ITunes. Do I need to activate a new account from the ME or perhaps a US account?

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    Hello khanhlinh98,
    I would recommend performing the following steps in order to stabilize your iPhone.
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

    i upgraded new software onto my iphone 4 however it stopped syncing and said error so when i tried to access my phone the itunes USB was showing in my phone screen and now i cannot access my phone

    When it stopped and said error, what was the error? You are saying that you disconnected the phone from the computer and all you see is the USB showing on the phone? Then you need to reconnect to the computer and restore the phone.

  • After moving my itunes library from my old WinXP computer to my new Win7 computer, itunes gives a warning that my content on my phone must be removed and re-synced. I want to merge changes/updates on my phone with my itunes library as normal, not erase it

    After moving my itunes library from my old WinXP computer to my new Win7 computer, itunes gives a warning that my content on my phone must be removed and re-synced. I want to merge changes/updates on my phone with my itunes library as normal, not erase it & replace it. My updates/changes will be lost.
    How do I merge content on my iPhone & content in iTunes together?

    Hopefully you still have the original library and can redo the migration...
    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

    Follow the process mentioned below step by step to get your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad working.
    Make sure you have Latest Version of iTunes (11.1.3) Downloaded and Installed on your Computer, if not then you can download the latest version of iTunes from the Link below.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Now once you have the Updated version of iTunes installed on your computer follow the below steps to get your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad in Recovery Mode and Then restore it to factory settings
    Open iTunes Application on your computer and then start the process step by step
    1>Disconnect your device from the computer (if connected). The process won’t work if you start with the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad connected to the computer. Leave the cable connected to the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad, as you will be reconnecting the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad to the Computer later in the process.
    2>Power down your device. Turn off your device by holding down the Power button ( On Top right corner of iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad). When the power slider appears, slide it to the right. Wait for your device to comepletely shut down before continuing.
    3>Press and hold the Home button (Home Button is located at bottom of your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad screen/display). With the Home button held connect the device to your computer with the USB cable. When reconnected, your device should turn on.
    (If the low battery screen appears, charge your device for a few minutes and try the process again.)
    4>Continue holding the Home button. After a few moments, you will see the "Connect to iTunes" screen on your device. This screen is a picture of an arrow pointing from a USB cable to the iTunes logo. When you see the screen you can release the Home button.
    5>iTunes will display a message stating that a device in recovery mode has been connected. From there you can proceed to restore your iOS device. Once you see this message click on OK and then click on Restore
    Once you click on Restore iTunes will download the Latest available version of iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad software (ipsw file) in your computer and after the download is completed the same will be restored in your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad. You will see the Download process and Restore process on top of your iTunes screen. Once the restore is completed your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad will automatically restart and you will see a message that iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad has been Restored and will connect after restart.
    Now you will have to follow some steps on your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad to Customize your Device for First Use.
    Hope this process will help you

  • I brought a iphone 5c from ebay, when i recieve the i item its loked with i cloud, and also had a tmobile sim card in the slot...now i cant access the phone because its locked with i cloud,i do not have the owner details to contrac him,,

    i brought a iphone 5c from ebay, when i recieve the i item its loked with i cloud, and also had a tmobile sim card in the slot...now i cant access the phone because its locked with i cloud,i do not have the owner details to contrac him....but i called to tmobile, they said this phone is not a stolen one,,thet told me to contrac apple.....is apple can unlock the icloud?

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • TS1424 why i can't access itunes on my phone? it says: your request could not be completed?? why??

    its simple, i try to get into my itunes store on my phone and it says: your request could not be completed... whaaat?? why????

    ok i figure it out ...
    i have 2 accounts, my USA account and MEXICAN account, i coulnd't access from my phone the USA itunes store ... so i did some steps that i read on others replies but it didn't work, so i log out my app store and then log in with my mexican account, then went to the itunes store app and it works totally fine with my mexican account, it show up everything so i had the opportunity to log out and close everything again, went to de apps store and log in with the usa account (the one that i use more) and then went to the itunes app and it works!! im so happy i did it heheheh ok, maybe im too excited but yeah ... i feel relief ... i was worry about that ... so hopefully this maybe useful for someone out there
    (and hopefully someone could understand my horrible english )
    1.- log out on app store (or either way Itunes ... the app that actually works as always)
    2.- log in with your other account on app store (i have USA and MEXICAN..USA was not working so i log in the MEXICAN acc)
    3.- go to itunes app and log out
    4.- close everything
    5.- log in on app store with the account that you are interested in ... (in my case USA)
    6.- went back to itunes y voala!!
