contact apple support to see what is going on -- there have been complaints about Icloud servers and mail - so hazarding a guess that they have a problem somewhere between you and them.  Weather (storms) can cause an internet connection to be slow - or have to be rerouted in the system causing a traffic jam somewhere along the line.    Generally - in the US I check the national weather service map and if there are storms in certain areas I give it up for the day as its just not going to connect.

  • ITunes App and Other Downloads Extremely Slow

    I have the latest version of iTunes; however this problem began presenting itself even before my upgrade: apps, songs, podcasts, etc. (basically anything downloaded through iTunes) start dowloading very fast (my connection is a 60 megabit one) and then hang in the middle of downloading. They sit there... trickle downloading at an incredibly slow rate until ultimately, they finish. Stuff that used to take seconds, now takes minutes.
    I have my iTunes collection on an external USB drive, which I have verified as working fine in the Disk Utility, and there is still 80GB of free space available. This problem presents itself even when no other applications save iTunes are running. Nothing has changed on my side, so I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this difficulty.
    A side note, this issue doesn't appear when I am downloading anything through the Apple App Store (such as the 300MB or so Mountain Lion update I downloaded in under a minute today).

    You have more or less answered your own question, you have too little space on your hard drive. Either put in a bigger one, or offload some of your music and photos/videos onto an external drive. You can use [whatsize|http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/44018] to see which programs are taking up the most space. You can also go to Applications>Utilities>Activity Monitor to see if anything is hogging your CPU. Remember to empty your browser caches and the trash as well.
    Let us know if you manage to speed things up,

  • Why App Store Speed is very slow on Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display?

    Hi,
    I'm facing few problems on my Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display in terms of Net Speed.
    I live in Delhi, India. I have 8 MBPS Broadband Plan. I have a Windows PC too at my home and Galaxy S2 Smart Phone. Both gives an awesome speed of around 7 to 8 MBPS Easily.
    But my Macbook Pro never gives a speed in App Store. It takes lot's of time to download Apps or Updates.
    Additional Details:
    I'm using Airtel DNS as my connection is Airtel.
    202.56.215.54
    202.56.215.55
    For example see this:

    EVERYONE is downloading that update right now - whenever I received a Developer Seed notice, it would take hours for me to download the new beta release, becasue so many others were downloading at the same time. Usually that little 840MB combo update would start out at 5 hours or so and then successfully download in 2-3 hours. So you're just going to have to be patient on this one.
    If the Mac App Store is slow on other files, however - say you're downloading EverNote for the first time - then I would contact the MAS support folks - http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/.
    The 10.8.3 download is just going to be slow, however, because people all over the world are downloading it and there are just so many Apple servers and just so many copies of those files on the server.
    So, on this one, just take a big breath and relax!

    You need to sync the app to the iPod
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod       
    Is the app compatible with your model iPod and iOS?
    Are any Restrictions set that would prevent installing the app on your iPod? Settings>General>Restrictions
    Do any apps no sync to the iPod?
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Have you successfully synced aps to this iPod from this iTunes library before?

  • Can't download anything from itunes/app store after 5.0.1

    I've read a few discussions on this topic but have yet to find any solution that works, so I'm reposting hoping someone has an idea.
    We have an ipad 16gig, and recently updated to iOS 5.0.1. (via WiFi, this isn't a 3G model). Immediately after setting up after the update, the iPad can no longer update apps, download new apps, download iBooks, download songs, podcasts ... basically anything from the iTunes or App store. All are met with the message:
    "Unable to Download (name here) - (name here) could not be downloaded at this time." with a Done or Retry button.
    The same thing occurs for all apps, music, podcasts, etc... same message each time.
    During the setup after the update was installed, we agreed to the new iTunes/App Store agreement, so I don't think it's that case where iTunes can't do anything because the Agree option got lost somewhere. I also don't have any downloads pending that need to be paused.
    Solutions I have tried so far:
    1. Restarting and resetting the iPad, both via the power button, and holding down the power button / home button.
    2. Signing out of iTunes/App store, re-signing in, with two different Apple IDs.
    3. A full restore of the iPad from my computer via iTunes.
    4. Attempting to buy something free from iTunes or the App Store (somewhere this was suggested as a solution). Some descriptions of this solution implied it was to force itunes to ask you to agree to the new TOS, this hasn't happened, and we agreed to the new TOS when 5.0.1 started up.
    5. Resetting my router. Didn't think this was the issue but did it anyway.
    Googling the issue, apart from the above solutions, I've encountered something about "permissions" on a folder to which apps are downloaded being set wrong by the update, but I have no clue how to address that, it seemed to have something to do with "jailbreak" ipads of which this is not.
    I'm about ready to take it to the Apple store but I was hoping I could find something online first, and spare confusing some poor Apple employee.

    I found a solution, and it's horrible.
    1. Back up your data. I used iCloud, but I also made a restore file through itunes, though you CAN'T USE THAT RESTORE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. It will just install the problem anew! Delightful!.
    And then,  basically do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 which translates to:
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Erase all data
    3. Set up your iPad as a new ipad - if you choose to restore from an old restore file, you'll just reinstall the original problem.
    4. Connect to iCloud to reclaim your iCloud stuffs.
    5. Spend the next hour annoyed and frustrated as you restore your music, photos, apps, etc... to what you think you had them.
    But miraculously, this let our ipad download apps again.
    Again, restoring from a backup will not fix the problem.
    All this speaks to some issue that requires the drive on the ipad to be reformatted with new permissions, or something, which is pretty **** annoying. Waiting to see the problem re-appear after it's finished syncing my music. Hurray!

  • Hi I have an iTunes account with my uk debit card but am currently in Australia, can I buy and use an iTunes/app store gift card in AU$ or am I only allowed to acces the store in gbp£ ?

    Hi I have an iTunes account with my uk debit card but am currently in Australia, can I buy and use an iTunes/app store gift card in AU$ or am I only allowed to acces the store in gbp£ ? Cheers

    I had the same error when trying to update my apps on my ipod touch. I tried to input my security code numerous times to no avail. I also made sure my billing address was the same as what my bank had on file. To fix the issue I went into iTunes, logged onto the iTunes store, went to account settings and reviewed my recent purchases. Turned out that I had made a recent purchase and didn't have enough money left on my credit card to pay for it at the time. I paid off the credit card, and then input my security code once more and now it works fine. I've heard that some debit or pay as you go credit cards require a minimum balance, so make sure you have at least that amount in your account.

  • Unable to download song/ Error in iTunes & App Store

    Hi the iTune store is quite unstable ever since iOS 7.0, either upgrading individual Apps in App Store or download music from iTunes from my cloud.
    I have perfect connection from time to time and bump in this problem often, it's not as frequent before iOS 7.0...
    Stability is one of the main reason that I stick with iPhone the whole time, please someone take this seriously?

    I've been getting this problem too, seems the album/song as noted is corrupted (I did stop it halfway into downloadign when I was in Spain and didn't have a ton of bandwidth). I just need to delete this error message.
    As seen here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18244258#18244258
    Swipe the failing song horizontally to get the red Delete option, then delete.
    So easy once you know, no?
    Once that failed "in progress" download was deleted, I asked iTunes to re-download it and it went through just fine.

  • HT1918 When trying to download the free applications from itunes app store its asking about billing information

    When trying to download the free applications from itunes app store its asking about billing information.
    Billing popup will display and navigating to billing detail page.

    Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item (free or paid-for) from the store.
    If you are being prompted to review the account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
    If not then you will need to enter credit card details - you should be able to remove the card after entering it

    Hi everyone
    I'm a new iPad user (ipad2) and have tried to download a few apps. I already have a iTunes/app store account but often when I try download a app I get a message that says "your request could not be processed"?

    It  could be a problem at the other end, try again tomorrow. Also , try resetting your iPad by holding down the home and sleep/wake button till the Apple logo appears and then let it wake up, maybe that may help.

  • App Store, iTunes App Store: No Syncing?

    Why are there apps on the iTunes App Store that are not on my desktop App Store? Very frustrating when I'm given the name of an app and I try to find it in the desktop App Store and it's not there but I can find it on iTunes. Why this disconnect?

    iTunes apps are for iOS devices such as iPads, iPhones, and the iPod touch.
    Apps you download from the Mac App Store are for the Mac OS X.
    Two different operating systems.
