ITunes connection timed out problem. Please help

Hey guys, I've purchased an iPod Touch 4th Gen recently but a problem I've had after installing iTunes is connecting to the internet. I haven't even got the software on the iPod Touch due to an error - "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network connection timed out. Make sure your internet settings are correct and your network connection is active, then try again"
Here's a similar error message which comes up -
http://turbo.inquisitr.com/wp-content/2009/11/itunes-connection-timed-out.jpg
The frusterating thig is that know one has a clue about the problem or the solution. I've tried everything you name it, from disabling the firewall, disabling the anti-virus, disabling any other programs which may affect iTunes. I've tinkered with the different internet setting, looked out programs allowed in the firewall and iTunes is definitely allowed. And my internet connection is perfect and very very fast. I don't use wireless but an Ethernet cable. There are absolutely NO problems with my internet connection WHATSOEVER.
So I was thinking whether the time I decided to install is the problem? Maybe it was peak time (I tried it at 17:00pm UK Time) and now its 22:25pm UK time. Maybe it's a time where many users are online? But if that was the case surely I would have been successful atleast once?
Please help, I'm getting really really desperate. Thanks you ever so much

You need to place the iPod in recovery mode and then connect it to your new computer and restore it via iTunes. Note that you will lose all content on the iPod. You can redownload apps at no additional cost provided you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps.

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, sync 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:

Hi,
Verify your mysqld start script. If you find a --skip-networking parameter, remove or comment and try again.
In slackware /etc/rc.d/rc.mysql have a line with: SKIP="--skip-networking"
And in mysqld_start():
/usr/bin/mysqld_safe datadir=/var/lib/mysql pid-file=/var/run/mysql/mysql.pid $SKIP &
Comment the #SKIP="--skip-networking" or remove $SKIP (the first is recomended)

So i locked myself out the ipod and i followed the steps to restore. it was restoring,,in the last eight minutes my ipod went back on and it said ipod disabled..but there was still restoring and then it said the connectioned timed out i need help

i locked myself out of my ipod and i tryed unlocking it and then the "ipod is disabled" remark shoowed up. I knew what to do to restores it but in the last one minute of restoring a message popped up and said something about it cant finish it and the connectioned timed out. I tried this at my buddies house and it did the same. Ieven my freind (whos very good in electronics and computers) couldnt do it, i need help is there anyway possible?

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.

Network Connection Has Timed Out? Please Help!

Ok i have downloaded 4 songs that have not been successfully downloaded. When I check for the purchases an error occurs and says the network connection has timed out. How can I fix this problem to get the songs downloaded?

Have no answer. Just wanted you to know that there is another sufferer out here. Same issue. Bought 4 selections ranging from about 5 minutes to 15 minutes. Downloads just CRAWL compared to what I have previously experienced with Itunes. Message is "Stopped Err=3529" when it times out. I DL quite a bit of classical music and it usually just trucks along. I installed the latest "greatest" version of iTunes just before this began. I have a very fast PC with lots of memory and connection speed. No reason initially to suspect the problem is at my end. Maybe somebody out there will hear our screams.

ITUNES connection timing out etc

Hello
I got my IPOD in Jan this year. It was working fine until a Windows download wiped my hard drive (or something like that). Anyway, I got my laptop fixed and it's working fine now. I had to download ITUNES (8.0 I think) again and for the first two days, I could access ITUNES so I bought 1 album. When I tried to download it though, I kept getting the error 3259 thingy. I basically got REALLY annoyed after 6 hours or so, so I gave up.
Next time I tried to access ITUNES, and ever since, I cannot even get in to it. It keeps telling me that my connection is timed out.
I am completely irritated at this stage as it's been going on about 6 wks now. I could give up and say so what because I've plenty of CDs to put onto my IPOD but it's annoying me so much that I can't access ITUNES or download my album!!! It's so wierd because any albums I put on myself work fine and I'm able to download the artwork.
My internet connection is fine because here I am on the internet now!! I've tried the Firewall thing and I've tried setting up my internet connection again. I also tried to download a newer version of ITUNES but I cant even do this.
Can anyone help me?

I am puzzled about that. If you use Wordpad to open your Hosts file (in XP anyway) it is generally an almost empty file. One use of the Hosts file is to boycott sites (e.g. known virus or ad sites). The Hosts file takes precedence over the usual DNS lookup so your browser knows where to go immediately - handy for e.g. going to Google directly at 209.85.129.104 without picking up the ad servers along the way as will happen if you go via DNS lookup.
I wonder what would set up Hosts to block iTunes? All the block does is to point iTunes to your own computer so you never go anywhere at all.

Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

ITunes 9.2 + install problems please help.

hi guys i recently bought a new laptop and when i try to install itunes 9.2 or higher it shows an error.
error writing to file: C:\program files (x86)\commonfiles\apple\mobile device support\ssleay32.dll. verify that you have access to that directory.
i really need itunes because i recently bought an ipod touch and i cant sync it to get any songs
any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks

error writing to file: C:\program files (x86)\commonfiles\apple\mobile device support\ssleay32.dll. verify that you have access to that directory.
That's consistent with disk/file damage, tame.
Let's try running a disk check over your C drive. There's Windows 7 instructions in the following document. Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.
[How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)|http://www.w7forums.com/use-chkdsk-check-disk-t448.html]
Does the disk check find/repair any damage? If so, try another iTunes install. Does the install go through without the error this time?

ITunes Gift Card + Account Problems Please Help Save My Money!!!

I have a Taiwanese itunes account and i bought a gift card in australia (I live in Australia) and i know that i need to get an australian itunes account to buy items on itunes. so i went to create a new account in the australian section and i filled in all the boxes and also it asks for a gift card code if i had one and because i was too desperate so i typed in the code and clicked continue (this was in the payment method section). and then it came up with the page saying that your gift card is redeemed and you can now shop and i clicked ok and it returned to the main page (australian one) and i tried to login into my new account but it wouldn't let me and so i tried to type in my gift card code in the redeem section and it says that this gift card has already been redeemed by another account. I don't know how the **** am I gonna get my points back. Pleas Help Me !!!!!!!!!!!

I'm don't think that gift cards are currently available in India (and as they are country-specific you won't be able to use cards from another country).
