Itunes keeps telling me "my Session is timed out" when I try and purchase a song?

When I try and purchase a song it accessed  the store and then I agree to terms and it dumps me saying "my session is timed out"???

I had the same, frustrating problem, then happened onto a process that worked for me. I wrote it up in the following post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3541003
Hope that works for you, too.

  • 've redeemed my itunes card and at the top of the itunes stores it states "$20. in your account" but when i try and purchase a song it still comes up with my billing info and dosent pick up the card at all??

    I've redeemed my itunes card and at the top of the itunes stores it states "$20. in your account" but when i try and purchase a song it still comes up with my billing info and dosent pick up the card at all?? plz help me

    If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
    If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

    From Apple Support...
    Here are troubleshooting steps that should help you fix the problem.
    1) Quit App Store in multi-tasking.
    2) Tap Settings.
    3) Tap Safari.
    4) Tap Clear History.
    5) Tap the Clear History button.
    6) Tap Clear Cookies and Data.
    7) Tap the Clear Cookies and Data button.
    Try purchasing an app again from the device to get the security question prompt. You really need to set up the security question.
    ...it seems to have worked for me.....

  • ITunes store keeps saying that my session has timed out when trying to buy a product from the store

    I Tunes is telling me that my session has timed out when trying to buy a gift voucher, which i have done many times before.
    The most recent change i'v made to my computer before this happened was to download an update (MacOSX updatecombo 10.7.3dmg)
    a couple of weeks ago. I'v turned off the firewall as suggested whilst trying to transact and turned it back on again, but don't know
    what else to try. The problem is three days old as i left and came back to it to see if there might be a glitch in the system.
    I'v been able to access the credit i have in the store, but not buy the itunes voucher to email to my own a/c. Please help someone if you can
    Sandystone.

    Thanks for your suggestion Ned01, I tried this as a last ditch attempt, unfortunatly it made no difference in my case, but i'm pleased it did for you. However, because you reminded me to have another go at this problem, i tried something else (which i'd unsucsessfuly tried before), that is, i deleted the 'CLICK & SAVE " a/c i'd set up recently,  and reverted to my previous payment me and would you know it , this time it worked !! I set up a trail purchase and it worked.
    It seems to me that other poeple with this problem have to solve it by trail and error, but thank you for your help.Sandystone..

  • HT1918 i cannot change my billing info...keeps telling me my "session is timed out" ???

    can anyone tell me how/why this is happening? i didn't get very good support from apple on this matter.

    Hi mterry1723, one solution that might be worth trying is this:
    - Close iTunes, if it's open
    - Open Safari and got to 'Preferences'
    - Select 'Security' on the top
    - Untick all the security options in the menu
    - Click the 'Show Cookies' button and look for all the 'apple' entries in the left-hand column.
    - Highlight them (select them collectively) and press 'Remove'
    - Now open iTunes and buy the song as usual.
    - You may be asked to do the same security process as before, so do as asked.
    - Hopefully, the security check will now have accepted your answers and start downloading the song as normal.
    Remember to re-tick all the required security options you had just un-ticked in Safari preferences. You don't need to bother about opening the cookies again.
    I hope this has worked for you and my profoundest apologies if it has not. Worth a go, though!
    I did see this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18259935#18259935 which may be of more help, mainly the last entry by 'c2boyd'

    How do I stop my itunes from saying my session has timed out when i'm trying to download a song

    What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.
