ITunes store currently unavailable??

Hi,
I just bought my Apple TV 3 days ago and everything seems to work. My Netflix account works and then the home sharing on iTunes worked out. But, I've tried all three days to sign-in to iTunes Store so I can rent a movie and the same message comes up:
Account Sign-in Failed
The iTunes Store is currently unavailable. Try agail later.

OOps, i pressed enter too quickly. I am just wondering what this means and how to fix it so I can access the iTunes store from the apple TV
Thanks

  • My Apple TV keeps saying "iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later" after 23 seconds of playing  a song through iTunes match!!! How do I fix it?

    I keep trying to play music through iTunes match and it playing a song for about 23 seconds then puts this error message up on the screen "iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later". I need help on how to fix it!?!?

    Please call Apple care if you have it for your Apple tv
    I have been calling them everyday and they are great they also think its itunes and after this last call I had they itune store support said it might be my network which is BS, I have 2 xbox consoles that have every video app installed hulu, netflix, vudu and zune and not one of them are having issues and my apple tv netflix plays perfect along with streaming from my library. I tested my network and also have the lightening speed service from my isp.
    they want me now to go to the apple store and visit the genuis bar and have them test it on their tv's, and I am unable to do that for almost a week and honestly its not my network it is them, I even opened a new Apple tv I got for the family room and tested that out and same thing every 9 min (8min 59sec) it cuts out and I have to resume it till the next 9 min.
    If everyone calls them and they get flooded with complaints they will see its not one persons network but something with itunes servers 

  • The iTunes is currently unavailable

    Hi,
    Can anyone help???
    I have rebuilt my iMac G5 and everything appears to be working apart from iTunes...
    All I get is the following error, "We could not complete your iTunes request... The iTunes is currently unavailable"...
    I have been able to log into my iTunes account, so I know that the account is fine, plus iTunes works fine on my iPhone ok...
    Has anyone got any ideas???

    I found the fix as a reply to the same problem today:
    Go to iTunes Store. You will get the same annoying window. Click OK.
    Enter a search term on the upper right (any term will do - ABBA to Zeppelin). Worked like a charm for me.

  • ITunes store always unavailable?

    We're using the latest version of iTunes with a iPod Touch (2G). Whenever we try to go to *Store > Check For Available Downloads*, it always says that the iTunes store is unavailable. Is this a bug? Obviously the iTunes store is not always unavailable as it claims...

    I've had this problem for a couple of weeks now. I can download App Store updates from within iTunes and download purchases on my iPhone over the same network, but when I try to download subscribed TV show episodes or newly purchased music from the iTunes app I get the message saying iTunes is currently unavailable.

  • "Complete my season" is not working for my iTunes store?? I keep getting an error message saying the iTunes store is unavailable over a week or more??

    My itunes store is acting kinda funny...
    When I click on "complete my seasons" under TV shows I keep getting an error message telling me:
    "The itunes store is unavailable at this time" this has been going on for over a week or longer.
    Any idea how to fix this or why it keeps telling me the itunes store is unavailable?? I have signed in an out and still I can not see all the seasons of TV shows I have purchased.
    Thanks,
    Max

    Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!

  • Itunes is currently unavailable

    My Apple TV 3 has been playing up for a few days, possibly since the latest update - not sure.
    Basically, i can no longer play any purchased TV/movies or iTunes Match music via the Apple TV (still fine via my other Apple devices - Mac, iPad 2, iPhone 4S) and the following message appears, accompanied with a black screen and yellow triangle "iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later."
    I've searched the forms boards and found a bunch of possible solutions that haven't worked: reset and/or restart Apple TV, Sign out and back in to iTunes on both the Apple TV and my Mac, switched Dolby Digital from Auto, On and Off - nothing has worked.
    Could this be an Apple server authentication issue? On purchased movies and TV, it's at the authentication stage that things seem to stop.
    Any help/advice would be hugely appreciated. Right now, iTunes Match and Apple TV aren't doing the job I paid for.

    Appreciate the response on this, and quickly too!
    I'd be surprised if it's my network but I'm open to suggestions! I have tried all of the fixes you suggested in varying combinations and still no luck. The issue does seem to be an authorising one - certainly when it comes to TV/movies content. I did purchase the new X-men film via the Apple TV and seem to remember some comments underneath about needing iOS8 and the latest Apple TV update to run all of the features. I have the latest Apple TV update but I'm wondering, and I have no idea why this would be the case, whether buying that has messed something up somewhere in terms of how my Apple TV "talks" to iTunes?
    I have tried reauthorising and reauthorising my Mac with my Apple account on it - didn't make a difference. Have restored my router and Apple TV to factory settings - no difference. Any other thoughts? I had read somewhere about hiding the purchase to fix things but I even tried that earlier and didn't help.
    Headscratcher!

  • Why is itunes store temporarily unavailable?

    Why is itunes store temporarily unavailable?

    Choose one that suits you:
    they forgot to pay their electicity bill
    someone tripped over the power cable and pulled the plug out
    because someone wants to find out how many people don't understand the word temporarily
    Since you don't tell us which country you're in, it's hard to say. But if I were to get that message when I tried getting into the Store (which I can at the time I'm writing this), then I would simply try again later. Even though "later" is an unspecified time -  to occur in the future, I would not try after two minutes.
    If after 24 hours, the same problem occurs, don't give up.
    If after three days, I might wonder if everyone had left the country and not included me.
    I'm sure it will be available soon.

  • ATV will play movie extras and all other content. Put will not play the movie it self! iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later. Shows up every time!

    Did you activate home sharing in both your iTunes and ATV?
    Also try signing out of the ATV (Apple ID) and signing back in again.

  • After about 30 seconds my streaming iCloud music cuts of and informs me that "iTunes is currently unavailable, try later".  What can I do?

    After about 30 seconds, music streaming from icloud through an appletv cuts off and informs me that "iTunes is currently unavailable, try again later". This does not happen if I do not stream via appletv.   What is wrong?  This seems like a problem within Apple, and not within my setup.  What can I do?

    I have heard of some people having a similar problem, which was resolved by a simple restart of their iPhone.  If that doesn't help you, you may want to consider de-authorizingyour computer in iTunes, then re-authorizing it and performing a sync to your iPhone again.

  • Why my apple tv keeps crashing "your itunes is currently unavailable,please try again later"

    why my apple tv keeps crashing "your itunes is currently unavailable,please try again later"

    I Have this issue too except I can log into my sons Apple id and watch his shows.  I can AirPlay non-itunes content such as a tv show that has AirPlay but not my iTunes purchased items.  I have tried all the fixes as suggested even resetting and reinstalling. It is bizarre, why can I watch my sons shows, movies....?  I can see mine but they won't load. our family is not on family share. my son when he uses his own Apple tv in his home has no issue.  All other Apple devices are working fine and I can watch from iPhone, iPad etc, just not Apple tv.
    very disappointed with Apple at the moment.  There updates, fixes and bugs are getting to be as bad as windows.  i am seriously thinking of going back to android.  Apples communication marketing people need to make a statement about this issue.  I won't be buying anymore movies etc Apple til you sort this out.

  • I am trying to stream video from iTunes store for the last 2 days and all I get is the message "iTunes store is unavailable. Try again later." I have tried turning it off, restoring it, signing in and out again.  Netflix works though.

I have tried turning it off, unplugging all cords, restarting it, reseting it, restoring it, and signing in and out again.  Netflix works, but iTunes seems to be bugging out.  If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated.  Thanks.

  • Music Store currently Unavailable

    I was trying to purchase music through my shopping cart in iTunes. When a new display was shown saying,"The iTunes Music Store is currently Unavailable. Please check back later." I was just wondering if anyone knew how long it usually is that it stays unavailable.

    I apologize for my impatience. I guess I should have just waited a little longer, it's back to normal.
