I've fixed mine! From a little help from an apple adviser. You might want to clear your caches before doing this - under iTunes preferences. Open iTunes - go to the top bar, click the 'Store' drop down menu >
Then click 'De-authorise this Computer' >
Enter your password etc >
Then click 'Store' again then click 'Re-authorise this Computer'>
Enter password etc>
Restart the Mac>
Open up iTunes should be fine - worked for me anyway  Good Luck

  • Accessing itunes store message?!!

    every time i go on my itunes the accessing itunes store message box pops up but it pops up constantly and its driving me insane it is making it impossible to search anything cause it just keeps popping up what do i do?

    Your problem seems same as mine...I'm still hanging with that problem. And I can't find way to fix that. That pop-up is appear quite rapidly and really annoying me. When I click tune name, try to get tunes informations, try to rename tune, and try to select tune on MUSIC LIBRARY, that pop-up appear about per 1 second and it takes about 10 seconds to finishing access to iTunes store, during that time period, status bar is working. But wait their up and then somehow they are going to available to click, get informations, rename, select about 1 time per 3 times. But copying tune' name is almost impossible during worst situation. But edit information during that time there is nothing to keep me away. This issue may occur once a half hour. Once this is occur, this is going to take about 10 to 20 minuets. Depends on what I try to do, gross time in this issue change flexible really. I also look forward someone who able to fix this problem. Is there nobody get in same problem with iTunes 10.2.1(1) and Mac OS X 10.6.6 like us? And is there nobody able to fix this problem?

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • Constant "accessing itunes store" message

    I wanted to let you know my solution for the constant "accessing itunes store" message. I was able to get rid of it by disabling Ping. Even though I like Ping, I don't need it. I tried the remedy that SandAddict26 suggested, but it didn't work.

    Why do I keep getting a "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" message when I try to update apps on my iPod Touch. I have a wifi connection, and I can buy music through the store, but I can't update apps.
    I've read various explanations and fixes (uninstalling software, deleting programs, etc.), but nothing seems to work. One answer that makes sense is that a corrupted app is causing problems. But before I delete all my apps I want to make sure that will work.
    I'm open to suggestions.

    I read in another discussion that deleting apps solved the problem so I tried deleting the 7 apps that needed updating and installing them again. Fortunately, all of them were free except two that cost me a combined $3. It seemed to work. I can access the iTunes store and didn't have any problems installing the apps. The next hurdle will be when I have to udpate an app. We'll see.
    P.S. I think that there may be a problem with the The NY Times app and the "Newstand", but I'm just guessing.

  • Why do I get "Cannot connect to ITunes Store" message on my IPad and IPhone?

    Why do I get "Cannot connect to ITunes Store" message on my IPad and IPhone?
    I have tried numerous times to connect to ITunes Store to update my current apps and continue to get this message.  Apple has determined that it is not a device problem or an Apple problem.  It has to do with ITunes.  Can anyone help?

    I am having no problems downloading from the app store today. I just tried it again. However, I read some of those other discussions as well and there have been times when the iTunes or App Store has been out of commission. Don't hold your breath waiting for Apple to acknowledge it because that is not going to happen. That is not how they operate.
    You can report it to them here ....

  • "Accessing iTunes Store" message stuck...

    I just installed the upgrade via Software Update and since... whenever I start iTunes it immediately gives a pop-up window stating 'Accessing iTunes Store' and is seemingly stuck. If I hit cancelled, the 'Canceling' message just gets stuck. On top of all this, I am unable to use iTunes and play any of my media as these stuck messages completely renders iTunes dead. What can I do?

    Well, this problem may have just cost me real money. I was fighting iTunes with this problem last night whilst attempting to browse the iTunes store. I looked at a number of albums, but didn't buy anything. I was doing searches in the store and, as some others have already said, it becomes very difficult to type or browse as the dialog box keeps appearing after you've typed three letters. So I kept trying to type as quickly as I could and hit the 'enter' button on the keyboard to submit the search query.
    So anyway, this morning I got tax invoice from Apple saying that I had somehow purchased some of the songs I was browsing last night. I never went anywhere close to the 'buy' button on any of these things.
    I'm hypothesizing that iTunes misinterpreted me attempting to preform searches and thought I was pressing the 'enter' key to hit the 'buy' button instead of submitting the search query as the stupid dialog box keeps taking focus away from the search box.
    Allow the conspiracy theories to commence.

  • Help! I get a 'cannot connect to iTunes Store' message....

    Every time I try to purchase an item and/or download updates from App Store for installed iPhone apps I keep getting a 'Canot connect to iTunes Sore' message.
    On top of that, every time I try to sign in on my iPhone, I get just about half way thru with entering my ID user name when poof, I am booted out from signing in!! I can access iTunes on my computer with no prob but not the iphone (version 3G) I have tried everything that has been mentioned to try.... Hard reset, turning on/off my device, network reset, turning my internet router on/off, checking my Apple ID and password online, syncing my device again with iTunes on my computer, and I still cannot access the itunes store on my phone! arrrrrrrgggggh!! This is so annoying!
    Can anyone help??
    Thanks!

    My apps are updating OK. This may be an iTunes/App Store server issue, but you can try restarting the iPad and see if that helps. You can also try quitting the app store, restart and try again,
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • "error in itunes store" message when trying to download

    I just downloaded itunes for the first time and want to download some music but keep getting the message "unknown error occurred and error in itunes store" ...any help for me out there ?

    Does this error happen on other computers with iTunes?
    Does this error happen if you created a new user account and opened up iTunes and accessed the store?
    What kind of Internet connection do you have?
    Have you ever had iTunes on your computer before?
    And are you using any Antivirus or Security Software?

  • Why am I getting 'cannot connect to iTunes store' message when going to App Store?

    I recently purchased a refurbished iPad 1 (iOS 5.0) from the Apple Store.  I've downloaded one free app from the App Store.  But today when I returned to the App Store, the following message displayed:  Cannot connect to iTunes store.
    I have an Apple ID which I can see via Settings.  The software is up-to-date (checked software update).  I can access the App Store via my iPod Touch.
    Any words of wisdom?  Thanks in advance.

    iPad 1 (iOS 5.0)
    Tap Settings > Store
    Make sure Apps is switched on under Automatic Downloads.
    If you download an app on one device it should automatically sync to the other providing they are both running iOS 5.

  • Cant buy from itunes store, message says there was a problem downloading - the network connection could not be made

    recently changed my PC and successfully exported my itunes library. My problem is that when I now try to buy a song I get a message saying that there was a problem downloading (song) and that the network connection could not be made. Occasionally I get that the itunes store is temporarily unavailable and to try again later. The old PC was running Windows XP and the new one Windows Vista. I have already tried downloading a fresh version of itunes and ticked the repair option. Everything else appears to be working normally. Can anyone help please?

    Still having trouble, the computer is authorized and appears normal in its function. Recently discovered that while it lists items I have purchased on another device it will not let me download to this computer and shows the same message as above. Also noticed that itunes says it is not connected to the internet which cannot be true because the list of previous purchases appears. Any help gratefully appreciated
