Itunes says I don't have an internet connection but I can access the internet.  I turned my firewall off.  How do I get onto itunes store

Hello bigblue8
Check out the following articles for troubleshooting access to the iTunes Store. The first one will probably get you started enough to get it taken care of. If it does not the follow up article should definitely solve it for you.

    The requirement shoul be on the box the iphone came in.  they are also on the website
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later

    iTunes 10.7 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)"

  • I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house and the mobile WiFi is our only option). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    LOL!!
    I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
    Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
    Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
    But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
    It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
    If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
    But please note the end result of this setup..
    very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
    In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

  • Firefox will not connect to websites, it just says "connecting" constantly, but I can access the internet using IE.

    For the last 2 days I have had a problem with Firefox. When I start it, one or two pages will open, sometimes 3 or 4, but then if I try to open any more tabs it will just get stuck connecting to it and never go to the page. Once it starts this infinite-connection process, the pages previously opened do not work anymore either. If you try to navigate in them, they will respond the same way. I have tried connecting in IE, and it works. I did upgrade to Firefox 6 yesterday, but I was having the problem before that (which is why I tried upgrading).

    I have tried all of the options in that first link you showed and none worked. I also configured my firewall (Windows Firewall) and ensured firefox was in the "Allow" list, which it was. I still have the issue.
    I did notice something interesting though. When I first checked the firewall, Mozilla firefox wasn't on the list at all. I had to manually add it and then made sure it was allowed to connect to the internet. Even after I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, I never got one of those windows notifications asking me if I wanted to add a rule for firefox. Checking the firewall settings again, firefox was still absent. I don't think it matters, firefox doesn't work with no rules at all in the firewall, or if I manually add the rule and allow firefox to connect.
    Any other thoughts?
    Thanks in advance for your help

  • TS1717 but I am o9n the internet now, but I am on the internet now.  How do I reconnect?

    the dialogue box says there is no internet connection
    but I am on the internet now.  How do I reconnect?

    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region
    If you find that it is set to the correct region, log out of your iTunes Store account, restart your iPad, and sign into your account again.
    Hope this helps.

  • 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.

  • The New Itunes says I don't have permission to make changes. All I want to do is add stuff to my Itunes. What can I do?

    The new Itunes says I don't have permission to make changes when all I want to do is add files to my itunes library.
    What can I do?

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    I can't download anymore TV from itunes, says i don't have enough icloud storage. My storage says i have 5GB to use and 4.6GB are still free

    The message shouldn't have anything to do with iCloud storage. You need the free space on the iPad itself, not in iCloud. You have to free up space on the iPad by deleting content. You can delete any movies, videos, apps, or whatever you want to delete in Settings>General>Usage>Storage.

  • I have a wifi connection but "safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet" I have reset everything; I have used Itunes to update and reset. Still no good. It worked until 2 days ago

    I have a wifi connection but "safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet" I have reset everything; I have used Itunes to update and reset. Still no good. It worked until 2 days ago

    Reset everything.. did you do this?
    Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings
    If you're already been there, done that, could be a third party app preventing Safari from accessing the web.
    Re sync your apps 5 at a time, then test the iPad.

  • Don't know how to fix this - status says no internet connection, yet I'm on the internet.

    So this is a weird one.
    I got this new MacBook Air and the WiFi started up without a hitch.  I had finished migrating from my old computer to my new one and all of a sudden the status bar signal went from full bars to an exclamation point.  The info says Alert: No Internet Connection, yet I am on the internet at full speed.  Even though I have restarted several times, the status in the status bar remains the same.  Since internet is running smoothly, part of me says to forget about it, but it bothers me.
    Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this issue without ruining my internet connectivity on this computer?
    Thanks!

    Migration may have corrupted the network preferences ..
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Click Go then move all the files in the SystemConfiguration folder to the Trash.
    See if that makes a difference.
    Your Mac will generate a new SystemConfiguration folder for you.
