ITunes Store app froze on me. Help!

Something weird happened to me when I was fiddling with the iPhone's iTunes Store app. I didn't know what that one icon was, the one with the three horizontal lines in it (top right of the screen), so I tapped on it. I got a white screen that says "You don't have any previews" - not only do I not know what this means (previews of what?!?) but there's no way to get OUT of that screen! There is a 'Clear' button at the top left, but that was grayed out. The only way to escape from this is by rebooting the iPhone, or by selecting the Music app and then navigating to the store from that.
So what was that three-horizontal-lines icon, anyway? And how should I have gotten out of it?

Check: Settings - General - Restrictions - iTunes Store = ????

    I've turned my iPad off, then on again, I've logged out of iTunes, and logged back in, I've updated my credit card information, but nothing seems to be working. Is this a problem within the app?

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

  • ITunes Store App Crashes! Help!!

    Installed the iOS 7 GM on my iPhone 5 last week and everything was working fine. Yesterday, I tried to open the iTunes Store app and it crashes every single time. It didn't happen until yesterday when the update went live, so could it just be overloaded servers? It opens on my iPad 3 (also with iOS 7) but just crashes on my iPhone. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    But still, it's the current version right? Does it matter when I installed it? I plug my phone into my Mac, launch iTunes and it tells me I am running the latest software. If there were no updates between the GM and the public release then isn't it essentially the same thing?

  • HT201272 I purchased songs from iTunes Radio on my iPhone, but now the only place they will show up is in the iTunes Store app on my phone, even after syncing to my computer a million times, the songs do not show up in my library or anywhere else.

    I purchased songs from iTunes Radio on my iPhone, but now the only place they will show up is in the iTunes Store app on my phone, even after syncing to my computer a million times, the songs do not show up in my library or anywhere else. My phone is not syncing properly, I wanted to add another playlist to it that I created on my Mac. I pluged in my phone and made sure the playlist I wanted to add was checked to be on my phone when I synced.
    The playlist I wanted to add was "Country." It is clearly checked. I also wanted to add the "Recently Added" playlist, which I also checked before sycing. Currently, my phone only has the "Purchased" playlist and my "All Songs" playlist on it. When I hit sync, iTunes added another playlist automatically added another playlist to the list above and checked it. It was titled "ALL SONGS 1" and had ten fewer songs in it than the playlist I had created, "ALL SONGS" had. This playlist, however does not show up on my phone after syncing, nor does "Country" or "Recently Added." (Every time I sync, another playlist is created as "ALL SONGS 2, 3, 4, etc.") One of the songs (I have not, yet checked the other songs) that I purchased from within iTunes Radio shows up in the "ALL SONGS 1" on this screen:
    But does not show up anywhere else. This playlist does not show up anywhere but the two screens above. The ALL SONGS 1 or 2 playlists do not show up here:
    When I search for those song in my library, it shows that I do not have them:
    But if I go to the iTunes store, I get the play button and not the price of the song:
    This is what things look like from my phone's side of things:
    "Summertime Sadness," one of the songs I bought from iTunes Radio, does not show up in the iTunes store under purchased "All" or "Not on This iPhone"
    But, it does show up under "Recent Purchases"
    Also, this is what playlists are on my phone after syncing a million times:
    Only what was on there before I started any of this. "Summertime Sadness" and the other songs I bought from inside iTunes Radio, do not show up in either of these playlists. Please, help me.

  • ITunes Store app no longer loading on iPhone 5 (using iOS 7)

    I've upgraded to the new iOS 7.0.2 and everything was working fine but all of a sudden the iTunes Store app no longer loads properly.  When I tap on the icon the app flickers but loads in the background.  It doesn't actually open.  If I double tap the "home" button, I can see the app in the background with any other app that hasn't been closed.  When I tap the iTunes store app, when it's in the background, to try and open it from there, it just stays in the background.  This was initially working fine when I first loaded the new OS.  Has anybody experienced this?  I've tried to completely shutdown the phone and restart it with no success.  I've also tried re-syncing it with iTunes on my Mac with no success as well.  An email to Apple over a week ago still hasn't been answered.  If anybody has experienced this and can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks

    Problem resolved.  A friend suggested that I go into iTunes on my Mac and backup the phone then try and do a restore.  This seems to have worked.  I'll update again if this fix doesn't hold.

  • ITunes store app on iPhone is freezing when iTunes match is on. Is anyone also having this issue?, iTunes store app on iPhone is freezing when iTunes match is on. Is anyone also having this issue?

    Since I installed 5.1.1 every time I access the iTunes store app from my iPhone and iPad the iTunes store freezes. I cannot browse or purchase from the store. It freezes then closes out. I think it is linked to when My iTunes match is activated on my OS devices. I was on the phone with apple tech support for an hour, no help. Anyone else having connectivity issues with the iTunes store app from either the iPhone on iPad? If so were u able to fix it?

    Please note i have tried turning off the phone, different card, it is not a bank issue and i have tried signing in and out of itunes

  • ITunes Store app keeps crashing

    I downloaded ios7 on my iPhone 4 and now my iTunes Store app keeps crashing and won't even load. Please help! I've tried restarting my phone and closing the app! Nothing's worked.

    try this:
    From home screen, go to settings - > general -> reset - > reset all settings.
    You may lose your wallpaper to the default wallpaper, but none of your content will be erased.
    I'm willing to bet this will solve your problem.
    Hope this helps!

  • Itunes store app is empty after instaling IOS 7

    after instaling IOS 7 the itunes store app is empty. Allready tried reseting and worked once but after reinitiating the app all blak again...

    Just had the same problem hasn't worked since I updated. Tried resetting, and tried changing the saved cookies from always to just third party and STILL didn't work. However checked my pop up blocker which was on and turned it off just to see if it would work and it did... Not sure if this will work for anyone else but it's another thing to try! Go into settings-safari and it should be there. Hope this helps!
