Itunes and App store issues.

I have an Ipad with retina, I can access my Apple ID account, but for reason if I try and buy a song or an app I get an error stating my password is wrong, I tried resetting both my Apple ID and password several times but still can't buy songs or apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

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.

Hey there
smrt.neha31,
It sounds like you want to disable the Automatic Downloads from the iTunes Store and App Store on your iPhone. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides information that should help you both enable and disable the feature.

Just bought a new iPhone and am having trouble with iTunes and App Store. I can log in to Cloud, iTunes, and app store but once I try to download, it says "Youe apple id has been disabled". I've reset my password three times and have no issue on my Pad.

For some reason the Apple ID window in iTunes and App Store now seems to have a character number constraint. As a result I am unable to enter the final few characters of my Apple ID which I have had for many years. Does anyone know what has caused this?

For some reason the Apple ID window in iTunes and App Store now seems to suddenly have a character number constraint which prevents me using my 29 character Apple ID. As a result I am unable to enter the final few characters of my Apple ID which I have had for many years. Does anyone know what has caused this?

You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

ITunes not sending email notifications to iTunes and App Store gifts recipients

I sent several iTunes and App Store gifts from my Apple ID... I set the date to be sent of Dec 25. The gift recipients have not received email notifications about their gifts. I went into my iTunes account and resent the gift, but the people I sent gifts to are still not getting emails from iTunes. However I got the iTunes email informing me my credit card had been charged.

I'm having this issue as well. I was really hoping to surprise people on Christmas Day, really disappointed right now., doesn't look like anyone has got an email about the apps I gifted them.

ITunes and App Store not connecting with Apple id after iOS 8

After updating to iOS 8.0.2, I have tried updating apps and buying music but nothing happens on my iPhone 5 or my iPad. Can someone help with this? All it shows it the rotating circle saying it's looking or working or whatever but even after logging in with the Apple id nothing works. I can connect my phone to the computer and things update but still shows on phone/iPad after that I still need to update apps.

Hi ,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I am sorry to hear that you cannot connect to or download from the iTunes and App Stores. There are some very good troubleshooting steps that I would recommend in this situation. Please follow the steps and information in the article below.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
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 clicking Check 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 guide for 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.
Have a great day,
Joe

I can't Sign in to the iTunes and App Store since I update to iOS 7

I can't Sign in to the iTunes and App Store since i update to iOS 7 with my iphone 4s. I try in settings iTunes & App Store with my Apple ID and Password and still can't Sing In

Same issue. Since last update (a few days ago), acces to itunes account failed very often.
- Music iTunes Match doesn't work anymore because it cannot log.
- Renting video often failed because it cannot "verify authorization".
I tried already several restart, reinitialize, restore... all without improvement.
PS: of course my apple account is working fine with other devices. This issue concerns only Apple TV.

ITunes and App Store apple ID disabled?

So my Apple ID for both iTunes and App store has been disabled for the past 1-2 weeks now and I have tried multiple credit cards(my dads) and none have enabled it, yet all the credit cards have worked for buying various other things. It wont let me update apps, redeem itunes gift cards, buy songs or download free apps. I went into my local Apple Store and they said they didnt "have the right equipment to fix this issue" and to contact apple support. But nothing has worked?? Any ideas how to fix this? Need this issue resolved ASAP! Thanks!

You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

ITunes and App store access after changing Apple ID.

Having changed country of residence recently, I changed my Apple ID. However, the old ID continues to come up on my iPad and asks me for my password. The ID has been closed and it will not accept either my old password or my new password under the new ID. It does work on my PC under the new Apple Id, but I cannot access, download or update any apps etc on my iPad.
When attempting to access the Apps Store it constantly comes up with a log-in using my old ID and will not et me change that ID. If I try to change the password using "Forgot password", it simply will not recognise the old ID as being a valid ID. The email address for the old ID is no longer valid or in use and that is why I chnaged my Apple ID rather than setting up a new ID.
Any help greatly appreciated

ITune and App Store Shortcuts disappeared from phone's home page

I received my iphone 4 a few days ago and yesterday I noticed both the iTunes and App store shortcut have disappeared from my phones home screen. It seemed to coincide (not completley sure about this) with when I connected to my companies MS exchange server. How do I get these two items back?
Thanks

I don't have an answer for this, yet am experiencing the same trouble. When activating my corporate email account on my iPhone via MS Exchange, the Safari Web Browser & Camera icons disappear from the home screen and can not be accessed or used. I have tried this multiple times and this issue certainly coincide's with my MS Exchange account either activated (icons disappear) or deactivated (icons appear as normal). My only thoughts are the MS Exchange server sends commands (set fourth by the MS Exchange account owner's IT security administrator) to the iPhone which disable these features.

TS3988 I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud?

I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?

Same question Wish someone had replied!
I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple!

HT204053 My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud. With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated. There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.
