I've been trying for several days now, and still can't create a new account... please help. am using windows xp and the latest version of itunes.

Hello manoj.oyster,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like apps can't be downloaded from the App Store over Wi-Fi. Since downloads work over 3G and you've already restored your iPhone, I'd recommend troubleshooting your Wi-Fi connection next.
Use the following tips to further isolate the issue with downloading apps over Wi-Fi:
Make sure your router is on and that you're within range.
If you're too far from your router you won't get a signal, so make sure you're within range.
Check all of your cables and connections.
If you still can’t connect to your network or get online, make sure your router is connected to the modem and turned on.
For more help, try restarting your device, router, or cable/DSL modem. After each step, check to see if you fixed the issue.
  • Unplug your router and plug it back in.
  • Unplug your cable or DSL modem and plug it back in.
Get more help
If someone else set up your network, ask them for help. If you’re using a network at a company, school, hotel, store, or other free Wi-Fi location, find an employee for assistance.
If you're connected to a Wi-Fi network but you can’t get online, try to use your Wi-Fi network on other devices. If you can’t get online using your other devices, there might be a service outage. Call your cable company or internet provider for help.
Try connecting to a Wi-Fi network in a different location. If your device can connect, you’ll need to get help with your Wi-Fi network. If it can’t connect to any Wi-Fi networks, contact Apple.
Update your Wi-Fi router with the latest firmware and make sure the router supports your Apple product. For more information, contact the manufacturer of your router.
From:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network - Apple Support
Sincerely,
Jeremy

  • How can I correct the iTunes/App Store error I'm getting on my 4s, since upgrading to IOS 7?

    Since upgrading to IOS 7 on my iPhone 4s I cannot download from iTunes/App Store - I get the message "... could not be downloaded at this time.  Please try again later".  I can download via iTunes on my laptop and then transfer via iCloud no problem, but can't make purchases directly.
    How can I resolve this issue?

    I am not sure what you mean by "Flash Player for steam"; the only Flash Player installers I know is the ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) and the plugin (for other browsers); you can find both at http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header

  • 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.

  • App store error message "could not sign in" "an unknown error has occurred"

    has anyone else gotten this message when trying to sign into the app store:
    "could not sign in" "an unknown error has occurred"
    i know my password is correct, i signed in on my macbook and on my imac and no issue there.
    i called apple and they coulnd't figure out what it is, i reset my network settings and same thing. of course i can't do a restore because i'm at work and we don't have the new lighting cords here for me to hook up to my imac

    I experienced this problem, too -- and with the help of an Apple support rep, figured out a way out.
    Go into Settings and turn off automatic date and time, and set your phone back a year. Then go back and turn automating date and time back on, to get back to the present. Now go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores, click on your AppleID, and re-enter it and your password. Finally, go back to the App Store (or iTunes Store) and try to download what you had been trying before -- and if you're like me, it will now pop up with a new set of Terms and Conditions for you to approve. After you approve, you'll be able to download whatever you had been trying to.
    It appeared, in my case, that Apple needed to present me with a new Terms & Conditions to approve, but for some reason, iOS 6 and the Apple mother ship weren't communicating correctly about how to do that, and I was stuck with the "Could Not Sign In" message. Changing the iPhone's time and/or re-signing in via Settings > iTunes & App Stores resolved the roadblock for some reason. Hope this works for others as well!

  • Hi.  I just upgraded to the IPhone 5.  I am connected to wifi but I am still unable to access ITunes, App Store and Safari.  I have tried helpful tips but nothing is working.  Any suggestions?  I have also done the sync to Wifi.  Thanks

    What happens when you try?  Do you get an error message.
    disconnect from the wifi and try on cellular data, if you can access the apps, then the problems lies with your router.

  • App store error message on Macbook (2010)

    I'm trying to download an app from the App Store and receiving this error message: "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)". I've tried clearing the caches in iTunes and that didn't help. This occured even after upgrading to Lion. The app I want to download is only available through the App Store.

  • Why my apple id doesnt accept in itunes app store..

    Hi what woul i do if my apple id doesnot accept to itune/app store..

    Hello jillianeshania,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to purchase an item from the iTunes and App Stores.  It sounds like you have successfully created your Apple ID, but you will need to configure it to be used with the iTunes and App Stores by updating your billing information and location.
    I recommend starting with step 10 in the section titled “Creating an Apple ID on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch” in the following article:
    Tip: If you are trying to create an account using an existing Apple ID, like your iCloud email address, you will receive a prompt telling you that your email address is already an Apple ID. Simply tap Continue, and then tap Use Existing Account on the following screen.
    iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes

    You can find additional information at the following link:
    Using an existing Apple ID with the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, and iBooks Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2589
    If you've used your Apple ID in the iTunes and App Stores in the past and this does not resolve your issue, please provide additional informatin like the error message you are seeing.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I was chatting live with Apple Support less than 24 hours ago.  Now, I can't find how to re-establish the chat connection.  Do I look in iTunes, App Store ...?

    I was chatting with support last night about a download error for a movie rental and now I can't find the link for the chat support.  iTunes, App Store, or someplace else?

  • Games in iTunes Apps Store not available in South Africa?

    Hi.
    Does anyone know why the Games category for the iPhone and relevant games are not available in the iTunes Apps Store in South Africa?
    I obviously live in SA and would like to download some games for the iPhone 3G.
    A.

    Either the answer is:
    1) The developers of said applications (if you are referring to the iPhone and iPod Touch apps) excluded south Africa
    2) Its an error in the iTunes store.
    Unfortunately there is no way of knowing without emailing Apple directly since they aren't going to be able to comment here.

  • Itunes app store purchases

    I will like to know why if the iphone 4 is a world wide selling device the itunes store content for my country is so limitted and when I want to purchase an application that I like from the US itunes app store I cant because my card was not issued in the USA and therefore I have no builing address and also I cant create a paypal account over the itunes store because I get an error saying that since I am not in the US the paypal account cannot be created for purchage in the US itunes apps store. *** is my money not valuable or Steve Jobs and Apple has so much money that my little international bank account is not needed.

    If your credit or debit card bank account is associated with a company based in the U.S. then your purchases will not show up in the Pakistan store.
    The iTunes and Mac App Store are actually one in the same. One of iOS devices the other for Mac OS X.

  • IOS App store Error - Unable to Purchase

    Every time I try to buy an app I get this error:
    Unable to Purchase
    "[App Name]" Could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later.
    I am pretty much certain that it has something to do with the fact that this is a phone which was restored from backup as the phone had to be replaced as the former had a faulty battery.
    I would appreciate any suggestions.
    Best regards
    Felix

    Hi ckuan
    Have you tried signing out and sign back in again in
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > sign out ?
    Have you also tried
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings ?
    I tried these both but I'm afraid these didn't fix anything.
    Thx
