ITunes disabling my internet connection..?

Hi.
Having "upgraded" to 7.4.3.1, iTunes now disables my internet connection whenever I try to upload a cd (after it's found the album artist and song titles). The internet still shows as "connected" but it won't work - no access to the Store or to any websites ("server not found").
Even if I close iTunes then try to disconnect and reconnect it does not work - the connection showing Error 0721. Only closing everything and restarting the computer enables reconnection.
I am using a Thomson Speedtouch 330 modem if that's any help.
Any advice would be most gratefully received - I'm halfway through uploading my cd collection and still have a hundred or so to go... If unresolvable this could be a deal-break stinger.
Cheers

I'm having this problem too when downloading podcasts. Have you found a solution?

"Network disabled because Internet connection is slow"

I have both a Samsung Galaxy S3 and a new Samsung Tab 3. After a recent software upgrade, I was having connectivity issues to wireless routers. The message I got when connecting to a secure wireless network was "Network disabled because Internet connection is slow". I determined that I had no issues with either my phone or tablet on either an unsecure router (WiFi hotspot), or with any older router that broadcast WPA2 personal with either aes OR tkip security. I do have a problem with connecting to any new router that broadcasts BOTH aes and tkip at the same time. When I change the routers under my control to broadcast only aes or tkip, then I can immediately connect both my phone and tablet to the router. There are obviously a lot of routers over which I have no control, so this needs to be fixed. I am pretty sure that there is a problem with the latest Android software upgrade in this regard

I am having the same problem with my Galaxy 3S since the upgrade. Have searched for settings, etc. but haven't found anything I can control. My home network is getting 54.4 down and 5.7 up! Have had this issue nearly everywhere I am connected.
I think it needs a fix - noticed today that Verizon has doubled my DATA for free. May need it if this continues.

My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.

Is possible to transfer photos from a macbook pro to an iphone without itunes or an internet connection?

Is possible to transfer photos from a macbook pro to an iphone 5 without itunes or an internet connection? I'm a pro photographer and I need to transfer photos from my camera, edit them, copy photos to my iphone and send via 4G network to an editor. I will be in a location without internet access and my old computer itunes wont sync with my new iphone 5. I can't upgrade the computer right now because I need some of the old software. Thanks.

Some decent suggestions for apps to do this in this thread:

Setting NAT to disabled breaks internet connection

Hello when i set NAT to disabled my internet connections does not work. Why is that? When NAT is disabled what attacks do i leave my self open to? My ultimate goal is to run three xboxes with open NAT setting, how do i do this? the details of my network are below.
Modem --> WRT610n
(everything is using statis IP)
my desktop is plugged into the router via ethernet cable
Wireless devices:
3 xboxes
2 Desktops
1 laptop
we are trying to get all three xboxs running with open NAT how do i do this?

Why would you disable NAT? NAT is required to allow systems with Private IP Addresses to access the internet. For instance, if your PC has an IP Address of 192.168.1.50 it needs NAT to convert this non routable private IP address into something that is routable on the internet. NAT is designed to allow multiple systems within the private IP space to access the internet. Also, for systems that are not acting as 24/7 "Servers" why use static IP addresses? DHCP, when set up properly, eliminates user error by automatically entering the necessary information to allow workstations and game consoles to access the internet. No offense, but if you don't understand NAT and private vs. public IP addressing, you probably shouldn't be entering information into a static IP address config screen...The XBOX saying you have "Moderate" or "Strict" NAT has nothing to do with DHCP vs. Static IP.
Open NAT should work correctly if UPNP is enabled on the router. If it doesn't, you can try opening the ports like the previous responder suggested but it shouldn't be neccessary.
The router does allow for ONE IP address on your internet network to act as a "DMZ Host" which will bypass NAT and give that device unfiltered internet access but you will not be able to have 3 DMZ host devices.

I've forgotten my pass-code to my Ipod touch 4g and when I try to restore and update it on my itunes library the internet connection cuts out. Is there another way to fix this problem? Cheers

I've forgotten my pass-code to my Ipod touch 4g and when I try to restore and update it on my itunes library the internet connection cuts out so this is not an option. Is there another way to fix this problem? Cheers

The only way is to connect the iPod to a computer with has an internet connection and iTunes and restore the iPod. Use as friiend's computer or make an appointment at ther Geniuds Bar of an Apple store.

Google search does not work. It does not bring back any results and disables my internet connection until I close the brower, wait, and then open it again.

Trying to restore ipod but itunes says no internet connection.

Trying to restore ipod but itunes says no internet connection. Uninstalled and re-installed itunes but still have same problem. Trying to restore because I uploaded songs from Yahoo music jukebox to ipod but they won't play. They are listed as "other" and I can not access them to delete or play. Tried to delete through music jukebox but now it say " error reading content" so I figure restoring ipod is the only way to fix problem.

Does this help?

ITunes has no internet connection

My iTunes has no internet connection whatsoever. It is the only program I have with this problem and I have tried a ton of stuff so it is getting frustrating . I am on Windows 7 with iTunes 10.6. My symptoms are iTunes cannot do anything, no store, no iPhone update server, signing in/out doesn't appear to do anything, authorizing/deauthorizing computer doesn't appear to be working, check for updates doesn't work, GIANT MESS.
So i have tried:
- Proxy settings are the way they should be
- iTunes diagnostics tells me sucre link to iTunes store failed but the help button does nothing because iTunes has no internet to look up the solution LOL
- Reinstalling
- Reauthorizing (not sure if anything happened at all)
- Turning off firewalls/antivirus
- Lightly tossing computer over a cliff (satisfying but not helpful)
Does anyone have a similar issue or a solution/idea for me?

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, 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:

Itunes 8.2 disables Ethernet/Internet connection

In an effort to upgrade to iTunes 8.2 this morning, I d/l and installed without difficulty. However, afterward, my computer did not recognize my Ethernet and I could not connect to the internet. I restored my computer to an earlier restore point, which restored my Ethernet/internet connection and deleted iTunes 8.2. After some manipulation of files, I now have a working version of iTunes 8.0.2. This is so frustrating, b/c it has taken me several hours of research to get everything functioning as it was before installing the iTunes upgrade.
What do I have to do to get Itunes 8.2 to function on my computer without it disabling my internet access? Apparently without the upgrade to 8.2, I cannot download the software upgrade for my iPhone 3g.
Thanks for your help.

Its amazing, my previous post which was deleted by the powers that be, was solely related to the problem that alot of people are having. Namly Itunes disabling internet connection, because I was extreamly irrate about the whole this I accidentally put a swear word in the post.
How is it that the posts can be read to police against that but not to check on peoples problems and get them sorted.
Seriously apple get this problem sorted, I object to having to join this forum giving away my details so you can now email me, with alot of stuff that I don't even want. One thing I would like is for you to sort this problem out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope that isn't too many exclamation marks, hope it doesn't offend anyone.
I am running XP, when I download Itunes it gets rid of my internet connection, thus making Itunes more useless than it already is.
We are waiting for an answer. As I said in the previous post, DO YOUR JOBS AND GIVE US AN ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And for the Apple discussions staff, if you are reading this, how about a bit of customer service, stop hiding behind your standard signature block and sign your emails with a name. The personal touch would make people less inclined to lose their tempers.

ITunes crashes my internet connection almost every time I launch it

Hello,
since my last upgrading to iTunes 10.1.2, (I did not do it for a long while), I am experiencing severe disconnections from the internet. These disconnections do not usually occur at the moment of the lauching, but a little bit later, when I am looking for a specific tune. The application seems freeze during its searching, then I lose my internet connection. It becomes not possible to retrieve the connection once lost, apart from restarting the computer. It is extremely frustrating. This occurs 3 times out of 4... Are some people experiencing the same problems as me, and will the developers do something?
I am connected to a Neuf-SFR box router by the way of an Hercules Wifi key. I tried to remove the key and plug it again after the problem occurs, but nothing happened.

Just for info, I just discovered the long long thread about the blank page instead of the iTunes store screen (cf http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2743839&tstart=0 ): I had the same trouble, that was the reason why I decided to upgrade to the last release of itunes. The end being, that now the goody good screen appears like before, but that the new release cuts my internet connection a few time after I've launched it.

ITunes Disables My Internet On Vista 64-Bit

I don't know if anyone has ever heard of this issue, but let me detail this as much as I can, and see if anyone knows of a work around...
So I recently set up my girlfriend's network, with her ISP's modem and a Linksys wireless router (http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/products/WRT54GL). I set it up with wireless security (WPA-Personal). I connected to her wireless network with her computer, an HP laptop running Windows Vista 64-bit, my Acer Aspire One (ZG5) running Windows XP SP3, a Dell Inspiron 600m running Windows XP SP2 and my iPhone 3GS, with the 3.1.2 OS. All were able to access the internet flawlessly, with NO issues.
I then bought her a 5th Gen Nano. When I ordered it, I told her to start learning iTunes, so she downloaded it, and was looking around it. This is when the issues started...
She was still able to get online through IE, and she downloaded Windows Live Messenger. However, it would not connect for her.
She was e-mailing me later that night, and everything worked. However, the next day, she called me, informing me that the internet was now inaccessible...
I came over to check on the network, and my laptop connected to her network, but had a sketchy internet connection. Now, please don't misunderstand that, as I had a 5 bar, immensely strong and stable connection with her WiFi, as I was sitting right next to the router. When I used IE (and FireFox), I would be able to access Google about once every 5 attempts.
Her computer (the HP) could not connect at all. My iPhone seemed to be doing okay with the connection. I pinged Google and Yahoo! from the CMD Prompt, and was always given a reply each time.
I couldn't figure out what was going on, and she had been making a comment about wishing her computer was back to the way it was, so being that most Vista laptops (from what I've experienced) have recovery partitions on the HDD, I reformatted it and restored it to the "out of the box" defaults.
Everything worked good then. All devices were able to access the internet EVERY TIME attempted.
I then installed iTunes 9.0.1 again on her computer, and that's when the issues started again. Once everything was installed, it gave the network issues. I had internet issues (not CONNECTION issues with the router) with my laptop (the Acer). My iPhone was unable to access the internet from here, and I had to pop over to the 3G network.
To rule out ANY conflicting software, I pruned her computer and removed all unnecessary software that had been reinstalled through the reformat restore (trial burning software, trial ISP stuff, etc.). I could still not access the internet through any of the three devices. This time I had NO successful attempts, as I had last time.
However, here's the two things that really irritated me to no end. On her computer, Windows Update was actively downloading the updates. However, nothing else that accessed the internet was working (Live Messenger, iTunes store, IE, FireFox, etc.). And my computer wouldn't work online. Nothing...yet pinging different websites still responded...
Anyways, I uninstalled iTunes on her computer and magically the "block" on the internet was lifted. All three devices were able to access the internet with no issues at all...
When I got home later that night, I looked into the issue a little, and noticed that apparently iTunes has some specific conflictions with HP and Logitech drivers, especially when it comes to Vista, and this IS an HP computer. However, what baffles me is that iTunes being installed on JUST HER COMPUTER seemed to put a block on the internet from the wireless router...I would've thought if there were an issue, it would've just blocked her computer from the internet, not mine and my iPhone...*it was as if iTunes on her computer cut the connection from her modem to her wireless router*...
What gets me even more is that I have iTunes 9.0.18 on MY laptop, and it caused NO conflictions with her network...I'm baffled...this is just goofy for me to have to find an alternative to iTunes JUST FOR HER COMPUTER, otherwise it pretty much takes down her internet connection, YET NOT HER NETWORK!!! And what gets me even more is that Windows Update WAS STILL DOWNLOADING UPDATES!!!
I checked her WiFi router settings when I re-set it up, and all restrictions were off, and any permissions that would cause a block in the network by unknown stuff were off...I just don't get it...anyone have any insight on this?
If you have any questions for me, to get more detail to help me rule out this issue, just ask. I'd REALLY like to reinstall iTunes on her computer, instead of another program. I've actually downloaded the older versions of iTunes (as in my research, I read that anything after 7.7.1 apparently causes issues with Vista running HPs, due to some driver or file incompatibility...). Hoping that 7.7.1, 8.0, 8.2.1 or 9.0 (not 9.0.1) can resolve this, so at least she can still use iTunes...
*HELP!!! Please!!!*

It is not just the HP. I have 3 HP computes and 2 Dell computers. 2 of the HP and 1 Dell suffer the iTunes internet block. Took me a while to figure it out also. But, the one thing that is different on the Dell, is that I can leave iTunes installed and not open it and everything works. As soon as I open it, internet access goes down. BUT secure sites (https:) works fine.

Why do I get an error in iTunes that my internet connection is not good when it is not a problem?

I am trying to use the "Radio" in iTunes and can successfully access all options except the talk shows. When I click on talk shows I get this.
My internet connection is OK. This has been happening for over a week.

I suggest you browse this forum. This issue has been going on for over a week now and there's hundreds of similar questions already. It happens to some people part of the time, some people for all the time, not at all to others. Some genres for some, others for others, etc. Different versions of iTunes and systems. There's some things that seemed to help some people, though I suspect it was just coincidental or it solved a similar but unrelated issue.
It's not clear what the issue is, or where it lies. If it's something to do with Apple's servers they are not likely to discuss it. There was an issue like this a few months ago with the weather widgets and people kept on posting with no news until one day it suddenly started working, again with no news. If you wish to, you can report to Apple.

There are other applications that let you listed to online radio if you are desperate. Check www.pure-mac.com
